An Injunction Stops the Grading of Commercial Street—The Councell Holds a Special Sesslon to Dise pso of Many Matters. New Sports at Manawa, The ice on Manawa has boen softened by the warm weather of the past fow aays, and is hardly safe for skaters at prosent. Ar- rangements aro now being made to convert Manawa into quits an attractive winter re- sort, and several interesting features and sports will be offerad to the pleasure seek- ers. Thebody of water 18 so large that the water is always more or less disturbed by the wind, and the ice is npt smooth enough to render it very attractive to skat- ers, Toremedy this, a thin layer of water will be pumped upon the ice, and it 18 thought that in this manner a very smoolh skating surfaco can be secured, The prin- cipal attraction, however, will be an ice toboggan shde. Col, B\ (. Reed of line, 18 now busy preparing to beg! the Manawa Motor arraaging his plans, and work on it. A two-story building will be erected on the large doci near the hotel, and the slide will sturt from the second story of the buildmg, about twenty-five fent above the ice. It is thought that this will be high enough, but if found unsatisfuctory, it will be raised several foet higher. The length of the slide will be several hundred feet, the greater part of it being over the smanth frozen surfave of the The building will be lighted and ted, and the slide will be illuminated ovor the whole course, making it very at- tractive for evening robogganini parti The hotel management is considering the matter of opening the hotel during the winter, in which event dances at the lake and bauquets will follow, as a matter of course, in connection with the coasting and skating porties. Colovel Recd states that the cost of using ths tobogean slide will be very small, a8 he will charge barely enough to miake it pay running expenses, as he will depend on the increased travel over the motor line to make his protits. 'fnere will undoubtedly be several parties who will desire to use their own tobogguns and satis- factory arrangements can be made for 8o doing. There is no reason why the move should not prove a successful one. ‘There has loug been a demand for something of this kind and the young people of the city have clam- ored loudly for o toboggan sinde for several winters. This plun seoms to fill the bill, and the numerous other attractive features that will be added ought to insure such a patron- age as would make it fiancially a success for the managoment. Skating, tobogganing, dancing and a supper will niake up an even— ing’s programme that is bound to find favor with thousands of people in this city and Owmabia during the preseut winter. - Go to Burborn’s for holiday goods at cost Fine marble clocks at cost at Burhorn’'s. ‘I'be Pulinan restaurant, 534 Broadwuy. - Money loaned at L.

Lo Who Owns the Diamonds? ‘he attention of the district court was mo- nopolized vesterday in hicaring the case of Max J. Bachrvs A. A, Clark & Company, Tne case was the result of the gambling proclivi- ties of an individual named Barker. The dealer in chances is alleged to be a book can- vasser aud the cvidence introduced goes to show that he came over from Omaha and wooed the fickle goddess m that seductive resort known as the Mint, where she is sup- posed to pass the greater part of her loisure hours, Bither Bavker was a very indifferent wooer or the goddess was away on business, for he speedily dropped his ducats and was compelied to *'soak” his diamonds and other ewelry. g He played with varying success for several days, sometimes winnmg and sometimes losing. The diamonds were pawned and r deemed until the proprietor of the establish- ment got tired of it, and instructed his men not to advance uny more money on the glit- tering stones. They wers then ‘‘in soak’ for #2140, and Barker insisted that they were worth over &0), and that he ought to be given a larger loan, 1t was refused and he was directed to the loan agency of A, A. Clark & Company. Clark advanced nearly §00 on them and the jewels were trans- ferred to his safe, Some time passed, and ono day Barker and a stranger cutered Clark’s ofice and asked 1o sce the sparklers, Barker representing his companion as a diamond merchant who wished to examine them with a_view of pur- chasing, 'They were shown, and the stranger agreed to tuke them for 00, promis call and get them in a few duys. He called and was accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Currie. He asked for the stones and they were taken from the safe, when the office served a writ of replevin ana took them away, leaving Clark in anything but an en viable frame of mind, The suit is to detel mioe the ownershiv of the jewels, The stranger, who proved to be the plaintiff, Baehr, alleges that the diamonds belong to him, and that the fact that Barker pawned them does not make them Clark’s property. I'ne defense claims that Baehr knew that Barker was pawniog the jewels, and aiso in- wroduces evidence to show that thoy had been in the possession of the gambling houses and loan agents for wecks beforo Bachr made any attemst to replevin them.

At the lust meeting of the council Tim O'Hearn, a grading contractor, appeared and demanded $200 damages becouse he bad not been allowed to fulfill his grading countract on Commercial street. This is a short street. running into Fairmont park and was given by the property owners for the purpose of making gn entrance to the park on an easier grade than that from Grabam aveoue. After the grading was ordered it was found that by changing the course of the strect an even better grade could be secured and Mr. O'Hearn did no_grading peudiug the settle- ment of the question of a change. Ho finully decided that he could wait no longer and demanded dawages. ‘Iue council declined o pay the awount asked and Alder- man Everett moved that the contractor be instructed to go ahead with the work, argu- ing that if the property owners were opposed to it they would get out an fnjunction Lo stop the work, which would relieve the city of B0y responsibility in the matter of dumages asked by the contractor oa account of delay, O'Hearn said he would insist on the city fghting any such injunction and offered to give up the coutract if the city would give him other work that was as good. He admitted that the price under whbioh he secured the cobtract, eighteen cenws per yard, was ex- ‘ '"HE orbitant, but he had been given the contract and it was worth #,000 to him and he wanted it or something else just as good. The coancil decided that another job couid not be let without advertising for bids in the regulur way, and finally ordered O'Hearn to o ahead with his work, The petition for an injunction, which Alderman Everett pre dicted, was filed yesterday, the petitioners veing the park commissioners and William Siedentopf. The petition alleges that if the grading is done the beauty of Fairmount park would be greatly marred, and that it would be a source of annoyauce to every man, woman and child, as well a8 a source of danger to children playing in the park. The case is 10w just where the conncil ex- vected 1t would be, and the contractor is again chafing for foar ho will not be able to successfully corral the §1,000 which he bad figured as the net procecds for oversecing the job. If he cannot have the £1,000 he must have §200, at loast that is the way it appears to hin, and if the city will not pay it he will be compelled to go into court, He does not want any trouble with the city, but the city mustnot give him a contract and then try to back out, Now is the time to buy your furniture, C.

The council held a special meoting last evening for the purpose of clearing up a lot of busin that has been accumulating for months, Aldermen Everett and Bellinger were absent, It was desired to have every- thing cleared up by the end of the year, and the minutes of numerous meetings were read and approved, petitions scted on and a large erist of routine business disposed of. Tho matter of compelling property owners to provide fire escapes on all buildings of three stories and over wasdiscussed at length, und at the meeting of the council next Monday night an_ordinance will be introduced with this end in view. n IKnepher introduced an ordin- ancg viding the city into six wards, [t provides that the First and Thivd wards shall remain as they now ure; the Second shail in- de all the territory north of Broadway between First and Sixteenth streets; the IPourth ward all south of Broadway vetween Main and Ninth streets; the Fifth ward all north of Breadway, west of Sixteenth street, and the Sixth ward all south of Broadway west of Ninth street. ‘The division is the same as in the ordinance introduced two weeks ago by Aiderman Ioverett; with the exception that the latter made Fourteenth street the dividing line be- tweea the Sccond and Fourth and Fifth and and Sixth wards, while Alderman Kaepher takes Ninth and Sixteenth streets. ‘lhe ordinance passed its first reading and was laid over, as there were not enough alder- men present to suspend the rules and put it upon its second reading. Tho ground is taken that in Alderman Everett's ordi- nanee, the dividing line is so placed as to leave too few people in the Sixth ward, which the latter ordinance remedies by bringing the line up to Ninth street. The same objection is made agaiust Alderman Knepher's ordinance rela- tive to the Fifth ward, and a demund 1s therefore made by several of the aldermen to have it placed as in Alderman Everett's ordinance at Fourteenth street. Tho proba- bility is thateither of the ordinances would have to be smended before passed. All of the aldermen bave expressed themselves as in favor of redistricting the city, and this will undoubtedly be done before the spring election, T You will miss arare treatif you fail to hear Miss Bigelow, the famous lady whistler. She will appear at the Orpheus whistling concert Friday evening. — - apman's Art Opening Today.

Abbott, socretary of the Massachusetts state board of health. contributes to the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal an interesting paper relative to substituting for hanging some betler and more humane method of inflicting the death penalty. In the present state of scientific knowledge of the nature and effects upon the human ystem, Dr. Abbott is not preparod to accept it as the best substitute at hand, soying of the experiment which have = been ‘made: *It would ap- pear from the results that there ave se- rious hindrances to the adoption of this subtle ngent.” Without consideving the main question as to whether some other method should take the place of hang- ing, Dr. Abbott says that if a change is desivable, *'in curbonic oxide we pos- sess such an agent, which hus_the prop- y of destroying rapidly and pain- Sly when properly administered,” He refers to the writings of Dr. B, W. Richardson of Tondon, who several years ago brought the method to public notice for the destruction of small domestic animals, such as dogs and cats, and especially to Dr, Richardson’s statement that 7,000 such animals had been destroyed in London ina fow months previous to the doctor’s article on **The Painless Extinction of Life.” Dr. Abbott says carbonic oxide may be made from charcoal at small cost, or it may be obtained more cheaply still from the street mains or any coil and water gas company. Water gas he con- siders proferable to conl gas, since it contains from four to five times as much carbonicoxide, and would, therefore,be more rapid and fatal in 1ts action, He says: 'An atmosphere of 25 to 30 per cent of carbonic oxide, as in the case of water gas, ov, still beter, one of 50 per cent or more, ns may he made from charcoal, would undoubtedly destroy human life in less than two minutes without pain,” He has himself used a mixture of about 7 per cent, with air, with perfect success in destroying small animals in from one to one and a half mllnulcn without the uappearance of pain. : Dr. Abbott goes on to show that the apparatus for an execution may be of the simplest and most inexpensive kind, and suggests a ight wooden box three feet square and seven feet high,utight- ly-titting door, an_aperture for admit- v urr a gas-pipe of liberal size for ap- plying & rapid supply of gas under or- Qinary pressure from the street mains, and a'smaller aperture to allow the ex- pulsion of the air, If a higher percent- age of carbonie oxide is desired a small charcoal furnace would be required for generating it and storing it tempor- arily, as in the case of Dr, Richardson’s lethal chamber, Of this method Dr. Richavdson says: **Compared with other wethods of extinguisbing avimal life, such as hangivg, drowning, poisoning OMAHA DAILY l.m..n by prussic acid, shooting, stunning, the lethal method etands far ahead on every ground 6f practical readiness, certainiy humanity.” In summing up. Dr. Abbott claiws for carbonic oxide the adxantages of - painless death, rapid action and economy. In respect to the second point he. . say “Its action ghould not be confounded with the slow action of small __percentages of gas, such as illustrated by the accidental deaths often occuring in hotels, These almost invariably iappen by exposure to the gas escaping from o mere pipe hole or slit in the' gas burner, which consequently forms out 1 per cent of the air of the apartment, and destroys life slowly In rogard to cconomy, he says that the cost of the wooden box would be but a trifle. and the expense of seventy-five or 100 fect of gas scarcely worth mentioning when compaved with the expensive npparatus requived for an electric execution - - Beecham's Pills act like magic on & weak stomach. i ANNEXATION OF CUBA, The Gem of the Antilles in Favor Uniting With the United States, The Marquis del Real Socorro is a wealthy Cuban who ends consider- able time in New York, where he is now quartered at the Marlborough, suys the New Youk Star. He is largely interested in sugar manufacture, and, notwithstanding a long line of blue- blooded ancestry, is & good deal of a democrat and an annexationist. *“The sentiment of the business men of Cuba is for annexation with the United States if it can be brought about,” he suid to me some days ago. “They feel that nothing else would so materially develop the great natural resources of the island. No richer soil, no finer tropical climate, and no finer people exist in the world than in Cuba, and, while she is rich and prosperous, ot hulf of her resources e been developed to the extent to which they ave capable. Our people like the Americans. They feel that the renl market for their products i in the United States, and thi: country furnishes what we want. The advantage of commercial union is ap- parent 1o every one, and is the parent of the feeling fora stronger union. Cuba’s proximity to the United States is another reason for the prevalent feel- ing of annexation, which Cubans be- lieve is not very far off. With the added volume of trade which that would open up, and the influx of northern dol- lars backed by northern erntecprise and northern business methods, there would Ve immense financial benefit to both, and ultimately closer relations, either commercial of political, must be brought about.” or e e A Cough, Cold or Sore Throat should not be neglected, Brown's Bronchial Troches are a simple remedy, and give promyt relief. The Sultan’s Cioset Skeleton, If things were done in Turkey aselse- where the decease of the mother of the sultan’s mad balf brother, Murad V., would have been notified to the diplo- matic body, and the lur h court would have gone into mourning. But it is forbidden to spealk openly of the sultan’s female relatives or.of the sultan’s heir says the Glusgow Herald. The man who will succeed' Abdul Hamid is a wretched, lean, vale faced creature of forty-five named. Mohammed Rechad. He is the sultan’s own brother, and 18 kept & close prisoner iu the palace grounds, lest he snould conspive for his majesty’s downfall. He has cer- tainly no such 1iutention, but usage requires that. the sultan’s heir ap- parent should be treated a suspected criminal, and Abdul Hamd is much too nervous a creature to innovate in this particular, He has a horrible fear lest his brother, Murad V., who became zy from having been raised to the throne too suddenly, should recover his BEE!

Murad’s mother, the Sultana Nadine, superintended his household and never left him. It would have been impossi- ble to molest. him while she was alive, but it would be only too much in keep- g with Turkish traditions if the un- happy madman were now quictly re moved, in order that Abdul Hamid wight sleep more sound! - All the rage, Red Cross Cough Drops, five cents per box, sold everywhere, A Temyer (e Monarch.
