The oviction attracted a great deal of attention and created some genuine sympathy for the woman and ber littlo brood of children, Sho had been living | in thelittlo cottage for the past year, but for six months pasthad piid no rentat all and had mde 1o effort w pay, and she was set out on & writ of cjectment issued from Jus. tice Hendricks' courtand during the re der of the duy she saton the sidewalk sur- rounded by her little fumiture and e broodof poorly-clad children. Her children wereery ing and sobbing and her own werered and swollon from weeping, and she told the story of nerlite to all who would listen, “Thie cottaze and the woman's furni- ture werenot worth the amountof the fur: hings of an ordinary room, but the mea- ucss of eversthingaud the wretehed ap- it eof tho little shauty made people thinkof the agrarim troubles of the old world, and it did not require much of an cf- fort for the imaginations of some of the oid Irishmen who stopped to sympathize with her to faney that they were again_in Ireland talking tosomehapless tenant whose shanty had been torn dowr by the ovictors. So much interest and sympathy were created by the woman's story thit when night cao an organized band of men, who were strangers to her, uppeared, foreed the locks on the shanty doors and in a very few mo- ments piled her goods back into the two little rooms from which they had been thrown by an oficer a few hours before. Tho stary that M. Hendry tollsls a vory sadone. When she wasa littlo girl she was taken into the family of Colonel W. F. Sapp, and was mised and educated by them, Wheil shewas cighteen years of ago she married Merritt Hendry, a young blacksmith, For a number of years they lived very happily to- gether, and Hendry became ths proprictor of a shop’ of his own. Four or five childien were boru to them and Hendry seemed to be dewly attached to his family. Two years agohe bezun to neglect them and was fre- quently found by the wife in company with lewl women. A year ago he sold his black- smith shop and left town, and the wifeand mother was left to provide for her little broul the best way shecould. - She rented thehttle house at 611 and madea brave effort tosupport herself and family by washing and sewing, but was unableto doany more than provide food and clothing. The rent could notbe paid. Thehouse was owned by the heirs of Henry Wents, none of whom live in this country, and the eviction was caused by Hery Weiss, administrator of the Wents estate. The woman's husband was seenyesterday atasaloon on Middle Broadway, where he is. engaged as o barieader. He claimed that hiswifo hadmade it too uncomfortable to live with herand refused to do auythiug to help herin her presout extremity. The woman was still in possession of the shanty last evening but it was intimated in Justice Heudricks' court that there was more_sorrow in store for her and that she would probably be prosecated for breaking into the house after the ofiicer had put her out, dozen ladies, swiss ribbed jes ¢, or three for §1.00, former price 50¢ each, Bostou store, Council Bluffs, Ia. e A good hose reel free with every 100 feet of tose purchased at Bixby's. e The Motor Injunction, The time of the superior court was largely taken up yesterday by hearing thearguments inthe Madison street motor injunction case, Afew daysago the residents of the street secured @& temporary injunction upon the petition of Mrs. J. C. Bixby restraining the wotor company from taking up its old rails and replacing them with rails of w new and beavier pattern, Yesterday thecase came up forargumentupon the application for u permunent injunction. A good deal of testi- mony was also taken and six or eight of the eaviest property owners on the street were placed upon the stand to testify to the amount of damage the motor track has already caused by obstructing the street. Superintendent Reyuolds was lso on the stand to plain the differcuce betweea the present rails_aud those desiced to be used The only difference ulleged is the height of the flangeon the new rails which will bo one-half inch higher, throwing the largest surface of the rail that much lower than at present. He contended that this will uot malke any more of an obstruction than the preseut vails cause, The casowas argued at length but ot completed.

There s cousiderable dissatisfaction over the action of the city council in purchasing the Lacy buildiug on South Main street for five purposes. Last night the transaction was condemuel very strongly by o large number of business wen and heavy tax pay- ers who were discussing the matter after the close of business. The purchase of the build- ing at @ cost O ¥7,500 is considered & pretty | large item for the retrenchment und reform administration, and when the additional ex- penditures that the purchase involves aro taken into consideration it becomes a very heavy item in what s charged as unneces- sary extravagance, Until yesterday after- | noon there was a question of the legality of theaction of the council in authorizing the vurchase, The matter had boen referrod at @ provious meeting to a special committee composed of Aldermen Knepher, Lacy and Wood, and they reported in favor of the purchase of the builling, When a vote was taken upon approving their report there were but four votes for approval, two against and two of the aldermen refusing to vote. The two who were excused were Licy sy for the reason that he was an interested party and Everett because he did not get in in time to hear the previous discussion. Alderman Wood, from the al committee, and Alderman Cuasper, chairman of the Hre committee, voted against it. The mayor declared the report concurred in, notwithstanding the fact that the rules Ul for the votes of a majority of all the council to carry through any appropristion exceeding £50, Yesterday afternoon the council met as a committee of the whole and the matter was brought up agein and Alderman Lacy overcame his delicacy d had his vote recorded in favor of the cha The deal was then ¢l gave the cityn deed and a cont is 4 85,00 mortgage on the building whi the city assumes, and which must be paid in three years, It is estimated thut the build- ing will cost 10,500 when ready for use. 3 e 1f you wish to sell your property call on tha Judd & Wells Co., C.

Bergan was to be buried and had been laid out prepapatory to being dressed in his burial robes. ~He was covered with a white sheet. Early in the evening “Bob” Roberts, one of the undertuker’s assistants who had been working hard all day, laid down on a long bench near the corpse, and draw- ingu sheet over him to keep the flies from bothering him, went to sleep. The dead und sleeping men were inthe above positions when one of Bergan's friends came in to pay the last tributes tohis friend, The fellow was a little the worse of several good-sized glasses of whisky, and on entering the morgue asked to'seo the remains of his friend. The men employed there were busy at the time, and one of them, pointing over towhere two fotms were lying, said “There he is.” The visitor went over tothe bench where Roberts was sleeping, and giving him & hearty slap on the stomach, said: “Poor’ Juck, it was only day before safter usking him to have The blow awoke Roborts and he hastily sat upright.

For scenery, it is oxcelled by many a New England village, For dust, it stands without a peer. Hence the tone of Saratoga isnot what it was before nature had been ex- ploited and Richfield Springs, Newport, Bar Harbor, Lake George, the Adrion- *ks, California, Colorado and Alaska discovered in all their beauty, But as long as the springs endure, Suratoga will be an immense power. and during race-week it will be hurly-burly, slum- bang, topsy-turvy, hurrah, hi-hi and chaos.

Crowded as the grand stand may be, T doubt whether one person in_ twenty is interested in racing per se, It is opera over again—ninety-nine out of one hun- dred for display or excitement, and one for sport. Consequently hurdle-races are eminently popular. Women shriek, men shout and ery ‘“Hoop-la!” as if La Belle Touise were jumping through a paper balloon in acircus. Allheld their breath, ex: pecting to see a rider land on his head and be carried off on a shutter, When somebody isn’t killed, somebody els rather feels as if he had not had the wor th of his money. Technicalities are beautifully defied. Tocall a race **a trot.” and a trotting match “a race,” is most common, while to combine both and dwell upon the citement of a **trotting race’ is not un- usual. Ah, and the snatches of conver- sation unwittingly overheard! Young Velveteen comes up with a blue veil tied around his hat becs ase this is a fashion at the Derby,and throws light on racing in general. “Weu-s-n't thea-t 1 3 c-i-t-i-n-g?” he inquir Miss Bluo Jay, with adrawl that would do credit to Lord Dundreary. Excitingl What does this perambul- ating Velveteen know about, sment? A tidal wave would not produce an emo- tion within his torpid breast. Miss Blue Juy tries ts become animated, *Oh, yes, it was splendid!” and then she be- gins to talk about some woman. *‘On, she is very talented; thatis, she is sweet,” One must come to Saratoga to learn that “‘talented” and *“‘sweet’” are synony- mous. And the betting woman near by becomes quite wild. Having won sey- eral pairs of twenty-button gloves, she beams as if she had been left o large for- tune by a distant and disagreeable relu- tive “Now TIl bet on the next race,” she exclaims. “Don’t’ you think you'd better wait until you've seen the horses?” responds her more circumspect daughter, “I've just dropped u five,” says a young gentleman of fourteen who car- vies a cane, and is therefore every inch aman, One of the struggles of the grand stand is to make people vealize that the world is made up not of one uuit, but many, “Take yer seats, everybody,” cries one policeman, A “All please to set,” eries another, Then the irrepressible conflict bagins, There ave always one man and one woman who will not sit down. “Sit down!”scolds a voice. Stander gazes in all directions as though he owned every horse and vote in the United it down!” mutters anoth dis- gruntled being, accompanying his com- mand with the poke of an umbrella. That stander no more heeds umbrellas than a loon heeds bulle ““He can’t sit down!” aims a_low comedy man. Whereupon everybody laughs. Even ridicule avails naught. Finally o policeman walks up, administers o small picce of advice, and the stander feels 8o complimented’ as o stand some- what longer. When he obeys the law, it is with an ale as if to say, *I sit down to please myself only.” Though this condescension be received with an ironi- cal round of applause, what matters it to an egotist who revolves around him- self? The woman who stand invariably cac- riesa large open parvasol., Therd is no need of this parasol; the stund is cov- ered; but some never 1 breathe until theyare done up in two veilsand oue parasol. i “Down_ parasol!” shouts the irate crowd, Nine times out of ten it remains open during the entire sport, and the owner has the satisfaction of reflecting —ifshe ever does reflect—on her truly Christian attitude toward her neigh- bors, Until the arrival of the millennium, horse racing will be foromost among manly sports. Human natur variubly repeats itself, land’s ~thousand years of cultu have but strengthenéd her passion for the turf, Love of thoroughbreds is eclipsed by love of country, and the Derby is as dear to England’s soul as Fourth of July isto ours.
