The majority of the cases aro offenses against the stato law, like disturbing the peoe and such offenses, and it is properly he duty of the county attorney to prosecute them both in the police court and in_ the dis- trict court when they are appealed, but if he were to attempt to do 5o he would have no time for anything else. It would oceupy apout every winute of his time and he would have to neglect the more important criminal business which he is constituted to look after. Bome of the cases como properly under the city solicitor's care, but ho is in the same situation, and caunot give them the attention they sould have without neglecting impor- tant city business. City Attomey Stewart has prosecuted & lavge namber of cases in the Justico and police courts, and has arranged to follow up some of the recent appeals and see that they arenot dismissed in the district court. The only way I see to remedy the matter is to create a new office and have the council appoint & police prosecutor. The amouat he would save to the city in flues ‘would much more thau pay his salary.” ————— FPERSONAL PARAGRAPHS, Mr. Scotia Stevenson of Ansley, Neb., is in the city visiting with his brother, Mr. Heury Stevenson of the Council Bluffs fumber com- pany. 3 A fresh invoice of fine cheviot suits for ou&mn, just received at Model Cloth- e : eral cle- sented to G.

After Occupying the Attention of the Court all 8§ mer a Remarkable Verdict is Reached — A Slasher Bound Over. A week ago yesterday a man named Fer- guson caused the arrest of Joseph Gilmore and Pred Hansen, two small boys, upon the charge of stealing a couple of white rabbits When obtaining the warrant he explained that it was not on ac it of the value of the rabbits that he desived to have the boy proseccuted, but to stop them from carrying on a systematic practice of petty thieving. Tho boys were taken into custody and when Judge McGieo enquived iuto their case he concluded that a seven days’ confinement in the city jail was about the best sentence to impose upon them. After spending two or three days in the jail one of them at- tracted the attention of Manager Lemen of the Christian home and begged piteovsly through the bars of the grated window to be taken out. The gentleman was driving along the street past the jail when the boys callea to him. He stopped, talked to them a few moments and then went inside and made i quiries of Marshal Templeton. Aftera brief inquiry he found the boys were fit subjects for the charity of the institution, and by con- sent of the officers he took the urohins home with him. They made extravagiant promises and were glad to get out of jail. They were taken to the home, cleaned up and clothed-in new suits of comfortable clothing and started 10 school at the Washington avenue building. All went merrily until yesterday morning. The urching w the way to school essed in their new cloth nd with sev- dollars of money in their pockets that had been given them as an encouragement by several charitable people who had takea an interest in them since they attempted to reform, They went into the school house yard and near ugh to theschool room door to attract the at ion of their teacher, and then with an originality of profanity and vulgi that was almost brilliant, they informed her that they had got new clothes, plenty of money and everything else thoy waatied by being good a few days, and now proposed to havesome fun. They then ran down Main street and reached the Burling- ton de in time to catch the 9 o'cluck train for the south, Itis supposed they have gone to St. Joseph, An effort will be made to capture them, and when they are returned they will probably be sent to the reform school.

James Casey had tucked her little brood of five young children into their beds in the lower rooms of an old tumble- down frame building at $10 South Main street. last night she did not dream that a demon of destruction was lurking in a closet under the stairway that would swallow up and utterly destroy the fow rude comforts with which she had surrounded herself. She is a widow whose husband died a year ago, and she has been strugeling to keep her little flock to- gether. She tucked them in her little beds at 9 o'clock last night and sat down at hersewing machine to lengthen the day’s toil. The whirr of the sewing machine drowned other noises, and the first thing that apprised her of any danger was a burst of flame from a closet by the side of a cot upon which two of her children were slecping. The flames came almost like an explosion, and be- foro she could reach th bod the coverings of her children were ablaze. A fow seconds later sheots of flame were rolling through the room and the old building was blazing fierce- ly. Thowoman snatched her babics from the fire and carried them out upon the side- walk before they were burned, but by the time the last one was out the room had be- come a furnace. No. 1 hose house was across the street and less than one bundred yards away, and a call for the department was turned in_from the box in tront of the station, and in less than w0 minutes o stream of water had been turned on the blazing rookery. Companies 1, 3§ and 4, and the big truck responded. The fire was confned entirely to the lower part of thebuilding. The upstairs apartments were occupied as a residence by a family named rouck, and they were driven out without having an opportunity of carrying out any- thing. "Thelr household goods “were only damaged by smoke and water. The building is owned by Chris Larsen, a South Main street grocer,” He has an 1nsur- ance policy for $100 plaved with Corey & Con- over. The amount will about cover the loss sustained upon the building.

The com- plete destruction leavos the poof woman in a perfectly destitute condition, and if it had not been for the assistance rendered by kind neighbors last night she and her little brood would have suffered, s not even an agticle of clothing except what they had on was saved The origin of the fire is unknown, but is supposed to have been smouldering in the closet for some time HIGH GRADE.

Some time last spring E. J. Taylor, an Omahu real estate dealer and the owner of a number of houses in this city, executed a lease with Mr. and Mrs, Henry Heitman for a little cottage in Ferry addition. THe leas specitied the lot and block number and the number of the house. When the tenan went to take possession of it they found it already occupied by a family of squatt who had broken into it and occupied it by tue of their nomadic license. ~The fact’ was reported to Taylor and he requested the Heitmans to take another houso of the same style and char- acter located in the same block until he could throw out the intruds They consented and went into the other ¢ Vexatious delays were experienced in ejecting the squat- ters, and when the house was finally vacated the Heitmans concluded to stay where the were, but neglected to p rent, The remained there until September, when T lor instituted an attachmont suit to sec the delinquent rent by seizing their house hold goods. The suit w: i nett's court and the original lease was intro- duced, Heitman employed an attorney and or was also represented by nis logal ad- viser. The claim was for #65. ~ The Council Bluffs attorney quickly discovered the fact that the lease did not cover the property o cupied by his_client, and moved to disimis: The case was continucd, and when it was re- called the prosecuting attorney filed an amended petition to cure the defect in the lease. The defendant's attorney demurred, and the case rapidly got iito such a judicial taugle that" both sides finally agreed to subi some of the problems to Judge Mz and agree to abide by his decision. ~ His opinion sustained the rulings of Justice Barnett, and the case was withdrawn, but to speedily appear again upon verbal showin fiat the premises had been occupied by the aefendant. The final hearing of the case occurred yesterday, and a jury of six good and trué men occupied chairs in front of the justice to decide the vexed questions. The defendants brought a counter-claim of §5 damages for the wrong- ful seizure of their goods in the attichment case. The case occupied almost the entire day, and the mud i the strcet was made to tremble’with the eloquence that thundered around the little courtroom. The jury re- tired at4 o'clock, and very shortly after- ward returned a verdict of $1.20 for th de- fendants' damages they were supposed to have suffered in the previous suits. "The costs in the case will amount to a great deal more than the original claim, and have been taxed up to Taylor, The Heitmans still oceupy the cottage; and are holding the fort with flying colors, Are you interested in first class heaters?

Hoffer is the murderous blacksmith who attacked Mrs, William Bohning on Wednes- day evening with a knife and inflicted some very painful wounds upon her hands and face while she was ondeavoring to hold him until an officer could be called to take him into custody on a charge of taking groceries without paying for them, Mrs. Bohning and herlittle daughter weve the prosccuting witne: They made a strong case against the fellow and Judge MoGee bound him qyer to await the action of the grand Jury. He could not give the §300 bond required and was taken to the county jail, where Lie will remain until next term of court, the grand ju having been dischavized, Hoffer claimed to Lave come from Des Moiues, but the police officers have discov ered that he came from Sheiby, 8 short, dis- tance east on the Rock Island railway. They have also discovered that he is a chronic sneak thief, and was run out of Sheiby for that reason. The Shelby authorities found that he had made duplicate keys for every store in the village. These were taken from him, and it was supposed that the best means of dealing with him was to run. him out of town, although he has a wife and family thero. When he left he came direct to Cou- cil Blufts. If it were not for the fact that the man had a large number of pasteboard pattorns of skeloton koys in the bag of toola ound in his possession whon arrested and that ne had shown consummate skill in forg- ing keys, the belief would be created from his actions that he is insane, il at Model 1g Buy your coal and wood of C.

Reports from the Vavious Centers of Tustry and Commerce and a Review of Trade—~The Fis nancial Situation, New Yonrg, Nov, to Tue Bee.]-R. ( Review of Trade says : Those who have long expected a severe re- action on the stock markes have now seen the average of prices thrown back to o lower point than hus boen touched at any other time for more than four years. It remains the fact that the legitimate business through- out the country is the largest ever known, not much inflated or endangered by specula- tion, and so far sound that complaints in re- gard to collections have been much fewer than usual. The check now sustained may, not improbably, produce some shrinkage in transactions and diminution of profits, but the industrial and commercial conditions have been so favorable that speculative dis- turbances ave the less likely to affect general business seriously. Reports from other cities show that at most points the events in Wall strect have had little or no effect us yet.
