Frank Snowden, the Missouri Valley resi- dent who swore out a search warrant against Dan Carrigg und the Mint last Sat- urday, showed up again in the justice courts yesterdoy morning. His first warrant was against a gambling house, and he yesterday wanted a ch warrant to look for saloon property and liquors, He first went to Justice Scnurz, but that dispensor of justico refused to issue the warrant. The next call ‘wus made upon Justice Hendricks, who in- sisted that the complainant should furnish a bond of $150 vefore the papers could be is- sued. Snowden was short of funds ana went out to look for a bondsman, but as he failed to return it is probable that s search was froitless, Aside from his grievance agninst Carrigg, Snowden has a bono to pick with the papers, which he says have mis- represcnted bim. He refers to his attorneys, Mynster, Lindt & Seabrook, for corrobora- tion, but these gentlemen assert that Suow- den is considerably off in his statements, ‘Thoy say he hus nearly bothered the life out of them, insisting that they were not giving Lis case the attention it deserved, and that the justices, uttorneys, constables and every- dy are against him, He insists, more- over, that ho is in the fight to stay and will #ce that his side wins, I'he courts are evidently of the belief that Bnowden is indulging in a_malicious prose- cution, hence their unwillingness to lend themselves to it. As the matter stands at rmloul‘flmru is the orivinal case now pend- ng against Carrigg, and he has furpishod bouds to appear at the proper time and pros duce the articles seized when the search warrant was served. e A Crayon Free.

Shortly after sunrise yesterday morning a small army of shovelers was busy in various parts of the city clearing away the snow from the sidewalks and crossings. The drifts were two and three feet deop in places and it was nearly noon before the motor tracks were cleared and trains could runon time. The Main street line was opened early in the morning in time to con- nect with the outgoing trains. Single 1otors were run on all the lines, but it was impessible to furnish regular service on the bridge line, All of the incoming morning trans were late, the Burlington and Union Paoific but a few minutes behind time, the Kansas City and Northwestern two hours and the Rock Island, due here at 0:15 in the morning, did not get in until evening. The evening trains were also late, but the delays were notas long as in the morning. Sleighs were out by hundreds, it being the first time this winter that there was a de- mand for runners, In the business portion of the city and the adjacent residence quar- ters the snow was well beaten down by evening and there was excellent sleighing.

Stewart was a candidate for the office of police and superior judge!” was the query fired at Tne Bee vesterday. 1n answer to a questioning nega- tive the speaker continued as follows: “‘Well, he is, and that makes two members of the schooljboard who are after the office. Stewart is president of the board and his term does not expire for another year, and F. M. Hunter, who was elected a year ago, is booked for two years more. Either one would have to resign his place on the school board 1n case he was elected to the juaicial position o which he aspires.” *'Is it a settled fact that Ayiesworth is not a candidate for re-election?" 0, he isu't in the race at all. You Aylesworth wants something better. He is after a place on the district bench, Two va- cancies will occur there this fall, both Judge Curson and Judee Thornell stepping down and out. Re-elected? Well, perbaps Thornell will be, but [ understand that they are after Judge Carson’s scalp. Someof the other counties in the district are after him red hot, and I don’t believe he could again receive the nomination. Of course, this is a republican district, and Aylesworth is a democrat, but that will not deter him, When he made the run before he only lost eighty- eight votes, and that is not discouraging, I tell you that he don’t want another term on the superior bench, and I know what I am talking about,” after imparting whioh bit of information, the political wiscacre took his departure. see, [ - Drs.

A motion to authorize the chief of the fire depattment to purchase the necessary elec- trical appliances for the new engine house was lost, Waterman voting no, A resolution was passed favoring the placing of the new strest signs on brick builaings wherever practicable, The city clerk was lustructed to corre- spond with parties with reference to fur- nish electrical apphances for the new hose house. The original motion was to the effect that the finance committee be avthorized to make the purchase, but Alderman Waters man kicked, He said that there had been a disposition on the part of the finance com- mittee during the past fow days to monopo- lize all the business and run the city to suit themselves, He wanted to pose as a mam- moth objector and stated that if he was not capable of handling such matters as chair- man of the fire committes he wanted to know it. His objection had the desired effect and the troublesome part of the resolution was cut out. A resolution was adopted instructing the city engineer to survey two of the most prac- ticable routes for the completion of the In- dian creek sewer diton to the Missouri rive The mayor reported with reference to the amouunt due from the slectric motor company for expense entailed upon the city in the con- struction of their line, and the city attornoy was instructed to collect the same, bringing suit if necessary. The committee reported in favor of allows ing the damagoe claim of Josiah Danforth, and the report was concurred in, A motion was passed ordering the council to meet this week at the call of the mayor for the purpose of adopting specitications for brick paving, Alderman Waterman appealed from the decision of the chair in declaring the report of the committes on the Josiah Danforth claim, but on motion the chair was sus- tained, The clerk was instructed to issue a licenso to Samuel Dobson as a scavenger at $50 per annum and revoke the license of S. Freed- wan, A motion to refund Freeaman the pro rata amount due him for his unexpired time wae lost. The mayor appointed the following com- mittee to have charge of the appropriation to cut down the country roads: Aldermen Knepher, Everett and Weaver. The mayor reported that the “Q" was op- vosed to raising Sixteenth avenuo to grade, ne as it would be difficult for them to raise their tracks until tho frost is out of the ground, and that §t would be better to wait until spring, when they could raise their entire yards to grade. The opening of bids for this work was postponed one week, A resolution was passed rejecting all side- walk bids and the clerk was instructed to readvertise. The bond of A, S. Clough and his appoint- ment as policeman were approved. That appointment went through so nicely that the wayor ventured to try another one, He then presented the name of James Mur- phy, who has had & place on the force for several weeks. Alderman Knepher un- nounced that he wonld vote against him, and as that precluded all possibility of having the appointment approved, there being but tour aldermen present, the mayor hastened to withdraw the name, Knepher insisted that a motion to approve the appointment had been made und sec- onded, and demanded that the motion be put, but the mayor declared him out of order aud refused t0 put the motion, e stated he was not ready to preseat the name of anybody, as the bond had been mislaid, and positively refused to allow Knepher to slaughter his new man. He declared the meeting adjourned until next Monday evening. After the adjournment Kuepher corralled the mayor in ons corner and proceeded to tell the chief executive what he knew about Murphy. The diminutive pair gesticulated wildly for a time, and finally the mayor’s tremulous treblo floated out upon the ambient. atmosphere: “Why didn’t you tell me this beforet”” ‘'Because it wasn't my place to do so. You are supposed to make inquiries and know what kiud of appointments you are making before you submit names to the council. I have my say-s0 when the council takes action on them, and that’s what I wanted tonight.” With this the discussion ended and the gathering dispersed. It is not known what are the causes of Knepher's objections, as Murphy has made a good.record since he has been on probation. The alderman-at-large evidently thinks his opinion will have weight,as he expressed the belief that the mayor would not insist on presentiug the name for abproval at the next meeting. B J. G.

Buckingham, assistant sur- veyor of the port of St. Louis, inter- viewed by the Globe Democrat: The night Abraham Lincoln was assassinated I witnessed a curious incident, which I shall never forget. I wasone of o party of young men playing billiards about a square from KFord’s theater, where Lincoln wasshot. The fatal shot had not more than diod away in the re- verberations in the theater than word Hew like wild fire along the street that Lincoln was assassinated. A young medical student, who knew our party, happened to be returning lome from the dissecting room when he heard the news, He was carrying the forearm of a man, and had it wrapped in a newspaper. When he heard the awful news he threw away the newspaper, and, swinging the ghastly human bone above his head, rushed into our billinrd room and shouted in an excited manner: “Lincoln is killed!” We thought he was insane, and it was some time before we could be made to believe thenews. All of us, together with the medical student, joined the surging muss of humanity that collected around . the theater, An hour after, when the excitement had cooled down somewhat and we were walking away, one of our party usked the medical student what he was carry- ing in his hand. Tt was the human bone. The bleeding, ghastly thing was taken fresh from a *‘stiff”” that night, and he had clung to it during the ex- citement in the crowd. - An Absolute Cure, The ORIGINAL ABIETINE OINTMEN I' is only put up in larae two-ounee tn boxes, and is an absolute cure for all sores, burns, wounds, chapped hands and all skin erup: tions.

There are all sorts of motives that actuate women to marry. For this act her reasons are more numerous and unique than for any other. The best and most excusable reason is being so much in love that she feels herself un- able to live without the man she cares for. When this kind of affection assails hershe might as well go.and marry, says a writer in the Chicago Herald, Marrying is the only thing that will make her a usefal aud rational memboer of socicty, When a girl marries in her second season the man may be pretty sure of her whole heart. It always seems a pity for a woman to fall in love so young, though., In marrying at nine- teen she gives up four or five years of perfect freedom and = unhampered pleasure. One can be married for a Tong time, but four or five years are all that ave socially accorded to young ladyhood. These years, with their freedom and opportunities for travel and reading,are not to be scorned. They often give the strength and ex perience upon which is formed the sue- cess of a lifetime. Xvery man and women should belong entirely to him- self for at least four years of his perfect physical and mental maturity. One should know one’s strength and one's weaknesses before asserting the one or resisting the other againsta fellow- creature. Then in marrying a young girlfa man suvems to take more risk and more re- sponsibilities than he does in marrying one between twenty and twenty-five, Between those ages a woman’s social aims and worldly ambitions become de- cided. I remember seeing this sadly exemplified in a man who married a pretty village girl of eighteen and took her to a city. She thought herself very much in love with him, and certainly be was o very handsome, lovable being. In five years she developed into a so- ciety butterily, loving nothing but her- self and the fatteries of men concern- ing her pretty looks. It seomed a pity that this little country girl hadn’t had four years of single life in which to de- | velop hier taste Notable European Women, Among the 416 students who have matriculated this yearin the University of Copenhagen, says the Transatlantic, there are eleven women—among them arelative of Bishop Grundtvig, Elna Agnete Grundtvig., These eleven women have passed the students’ exam- ination of the t grade and with dis- tinction. A vumber of Danish ladies, who have completed their studies, have estab- lished themselves as physicians in Co- penhagen, and haye gained a remuner- ative practice. One of these ladies, Miss Anna Hude, has beon appointed assistant in the bistorical department of the university for answering the histor- ical prize questions, In the statistical bureau there are two female misistants, A Miss Nielsen coutum})lnms the es- tablishment of a clinic for women in Copenhagen. At the Puris exposition Mrs. Ida Hansen received the gold medal for embroidery; seven other Danish ladies ‘were awarded silver medals and two bronze medals, July 1, 1889, Mrs. Hedwig Angyalfi commenced her activity as guide and traveling companion for foreigners, She has already met with much success in this self-chosen career in the field of female industry. Under the intelligent leadership of vj’ns lady, who is convers- ant with several languages, und who has also acted asinterpreter to the Per- sian minister, foreigners received in the shortest time the best possible gen- eral knowledge of Berlin. Being very well informed of the local gonditions of Berlin, she was also an excellent shop- ping guide in any department what- ever. Mrs., Angyplfi ' has traveled a great deal and is considering the or- gunization of traveling companies. Nahida Sturmhogfe’, one of the first pioneers in the agitation of the woman uestion, died lately in San Terenzo at the age of seventy-seyen years. Born in Flatow, West Prussia, she worked in the direction of the emancipation of woman as early ay 1810, in Dresden. Her poems, “Freie Lieder,” which ap- peared in 1825, werg bonfiscated imme- diately after their appearance. Later she wrote “'Goetzen, Goetter,und Go't,” “Neulatein als Weltsprache,” and finally **Vergessene Lieder.” How to e Happy Though Married, From the journal of Marie Bashkirt- seff: Ishall be happy with my busband, for I will not neglect myself; I will adorn myself to please him,us I adorned myself when | wished to please him for the first timo, Besides, can not understand how a man and a woman can love each other tenderly, and en- deavor to please each other unceusingly, and then neglect themselves after mar- riage. Why believe that with the word warriage love must pass away, and that only cold and reserved [riendship re- walus; why profane warriage by repre- JANUAR 14, 1890, senting the wife in wrapper, with cold o trying to got money from her husband for dressos; why should a woman be carcless of her appearance before the man for whom she should adorn herself the most? 1 do not seo why one should treat one’s husband like a domestic ani- mal, and yet so long as ono is not mar- ried why one should wish to please this man. Why not always retain something of coguetry with one’s husband, and treat him as a stranger whom one de§ sires to please? Is it because one need not conceal one’s love, because it is not acrime to love, and because mar has recoived God’s benediction? Ts it because shat which is not forbidden possesses no value in our eyes, and that one can find pleasure only in secret and forbidden things? This ought not to be. [Marie wrote this at the ago of twelve years.] pavers and a cam on her ouse, age The Beauties of Andalusia. As regards her stature and mould, the Andalusian girl is almost invariably a petite brunette, and although not all are plump, and many are too stout, tho majority have exquisitely tapering limbs, well-developed busts (flat-chested women are almost unknown in Spain), and the most dainty and refined hands and feet, writes Henry T. Finck in the Se! Januar ibner. Rogarding theso feet Gautier makes the most astounding assertion, that without any poetic ex- aggeration it would be easy here in Seville to find women whose feet an in- fant might hold in its hands. A I'rench girl of seven or eight could not wear the shoes of an Andalusian of 4wenty.” Tam glad to attest that,if the feet, of Sevillian women really were so monstrously small fifty years ago, they are so no longer, Itis discouraging to see n man like Gautier fall into the vul- gar error of fancying that, because a small foot is n thing of beauty, theve- fore the smaller the foot the more beau- tiful it must be. Beauty of feet, hands and waists is a matter of proportion, not of absolute size, and too small feet, hands and waists are not beautiful, but ugl We might as well argue that since nman’s foot ought to be larger than a woman’s, therofore the large: his foot the more he has of manly beauty. It Anaalusinn women really had feet so small that a baby might hold them its hands, they would not be able to walk at all, or at least not gracefully. But it is precisely their graceful gait and carriage for whieh they are most famed and admired. All Spanmish women are graceful as com- ared with the women of other nations, but among them all the Andalusians are pre-cminent in the poetry of motion,and this is probably the reason that, al- though regular facial beauty is perhaps commoner Madrid than in Seville, T found that you canuot pay a greater compliment to a girl in northern Spain than by asking her if she is an Andalu- sian. It would be useless to seek among land animals for a gait comparable to that of the woman of Seville, Cadiz, Malaga and Granada; and when you compare 1t to the motion of a non the water, a fish in the wate bird in the air, it is the birds and the fishesthat must feel complimented. She Cost Her Weight in Gold. Mrs. Jesus Castro, an aged Mes lady, who recently died at Ame Flag, in the Lanta Catalinna mountains, Arizona, wae perhaps, the only woman in the world who ever cost her husband her weight in gold. In the early gold digging days of California she was a resident of Sonora, Mexico, in which state she was born and grew to woman- hood. When about seventeen years of age a paternal uncle, but a few years her senior, returned gold-laden from the newly discovered mines and soon fell desperately in love with his nicce. He sought her hand in marriage and was accepted, but the chur refused, on account of the near relationship, to solemnize the marriage. Persuasion bemng in vain,he tried the power of gold to win the church his way, and succeeded only by the paymentof her weight in gold. She at the time weighed 117 pounds, and against her in the scales the glittering dust was show- eled. The husband still had enough of this world’s goods to provide a good home. Baked Braids. Naturally curly hair is the only kind in demand, but 1t is too expensive to come within reach ot every one, and a process has necessarily been invented to give straight, cheap haira wave it will retain a year if not placed in water. It 15 braided as tightly as a strong man's fingers can draw it, a thick cord plaited in with each strand to keep it immov- ably in place. This is dropped into boiling water, allowed to dry in its braided form and then baked.” The re- sult is a lasting wave. Hair is seldom longer than four feet, though a few rare instances are cited where it has grown to the length of six feet, i Favorite Dishes of toyal Lad es, A Frenchman has been collecting data recently in regard to the dishes which the feminine rulers of European coun- tries prefer upon their tables. Acca ing to his statements, Queen Victoria 18 especially fond of the Scotch cuisine. Her meal is 1nvariably begun a with plate of oatmeul porridge, so dear to the palate of the Highlander. One of her }u\'uuiw dishes is smoked ham, She drinks beer with great gusto, and eats bread baked especially hard and firm, The queen of Sweden™ eats substantial food, consisting chiefly of heefstenk, which is an_invariable part of each meal’s bill of fare, She is ulso fond of smoked salmon, preserved according to the method of her country; of meat-balls dressed with beans, and of eggs ried in milk and oil, The court of Germany, strange to say, despite the German names of hes, is addicted to the French cuisine. The Empress Fred- rick, howey prefers the English cookery, and is éspecially fond of pustry. The royal family of Italy, although in many ways the simplest and most demo cvatic in Furope, always dine from dishes of gold. They only drink the wine of their own country, and show a great preference for the ‘‘fritto,” a dish composed of the hearts of arti- chokes and the cownbs and livers of chickens, Ex-Queen Isabelln loves the “epeido” of Castile, with all its acces- sories, She also eats daily a portion of rice. The queen regent of Spain pre- fers the Austrian cuisine, She eats rousts of all Kinds, with jellies, goose- berry jelly being one of her favorites. During the early days of her life in Spain she ate only one kind of bread, w&lich was sent to her from Vienna. Of late years, lowever, probably in keeping with her patriotic endeavors, she eats the bread of the country. Are Beautiful Women Happiest? In my life I bave known many women welli Among them is a fair majority of whom the truly appreciative would call happy, for which fact I thank God, as it has helped wme to take, on the whole, a hopeful view of life, as well as human nature, writes Anna Katharine Green 1 Ladies’ Home Journal, Now are those women, blessed as many ufy tbem are with devoted husbands, cheerful homes, cultivated society, and leisure for the exercise of any special talent they inay possess, beautiful women? h one or two uxccrflouv. no, Iundeea, more than a few of them are positively plain, if feature only is considered, while from the rest] can single out but two or three whose faces PROFESSIONAL DIREC TORY. fp— — = = e = —q ~Hydraulic and Sanitary Engineer, Plans, Estimates H- BIRK'NBINE Specifications, Supervision of Public Work.

But they are loved, they are honored, they are deferred to. While not elicit- ing the admiration of every passer-by, they have acquired through the foree, the swectness, or originality of their e appreciation confers honor happiness, and, consequently their days good-will, which is far above the delir- ious admiration accorded to the simply beautiful, as the placid shining of the sunbeam is to the phenomenal blaze of an evanescent flame, How to Tell a “Bleached Blonde," Bleached hair is brougnt to such an art now that it is almost impossible for the casual observor to tell tho genuine from the artificial blonde. But if ina carcfully arranged head of haiv as yel- low as ripe wheat you detect one dark brown or black hair at the nape of the neck or near the ear, the story is told, Straws show which way the wind blows, and the single dark hair tells where the dye missed. The dark-haired woman who is deter- mimed to bo a blonde must live the lifo of a slave to this desire, as hair grows at the rate of an inch a month, There is a shade of natural nuburn hair which is inclined to be streaked and much lighter at the ends than at the roots. This kind of hair, now so fashionable, might be mistaken for the streaked and striped bleached blonde by an inexperienced eye; but, if glossy, bright and healthful in tone, it ure to be nutural, no matter how varied are its shades; while if it is dry and broken it is sofe to suspect the bleacher’s art. A vatural pale golden blonde has blonde eyelashes and eyebrows, and in real lifo black eyelashes nover pany golden hair, unless 1t owes to art, however much we may find this combination in heroines ot novels, Mrs. Hayes Gave Him Whisky. A story may not be out of place here, in which the fact blossoms that Mrs. Hayes’ objection to stimulants did not extend to their medicinal use, writes Theodore R. Davis in the Ladies’ Home Journal. Among the correspond- ents occupying the press car attached to the train used by the president, Mrs. Hayes, members of the cabinet, and a few other prominent persons, for a southern and stern trip, was the Louisville Courier-Journal repr tive. The train had just pas: through Kentucky, and the journalist, who was on the rear platform—presum: ably in the line of duty—leaned out, in season to be struck by a piece of lumber projecting from a structure beside the track. K by president’s red to by the presi it v was called or, and under its stimulating influence returning reason was shnown by the Kentuckian’s prompt protestation against the introduction of water into his next dose of bourbon juice. et - An Ingenfons Waiter. The New York waiter is brimful of expedients, s the New York Sun,and in some of Tus ingenwity is' unlike any creature on_earth. This occurred in one of the table d’hote establishments, Itjwas late and thedinner wasover. The soup was just warm and the fish cold, Something in the patron’s manner must have told the effervescent waiter that things were not right, for when he danced up to the table bearing the en- tree he handled it gingerly. A thick napkin separated the plate from his expansive palm, and when about to put it on the table he grabbed up another napkin, and with this in his left hand and the other in his right he succeeded in depositing the plate gently on the table, and then he sli other duties. The diner thought that at lasthe was to have something hot, and inwardly rejoiced. The entree was as cold as an oyster and so was the plate.
