The case was_continued until this moming at the de- fendant's request. The Grand hotel threw open its doors for the accommodation of the public last evening: for the first time. The dining room was filled with citizens who had come for the purpose of secing how this enterprise farcd at the hands of the public, and how the pro- prietors looked after the comfort of their guests, Apparently nothing had been leftun- done that could make things any more pleas ant. The building was illuminited bril- liantly from the oftice to the dining room. Aftersupper some of the visitors wer'e given an_ opportunity to go through the totel and see the furnishings, All who had this pleasure were surprised at the elogant w n which the hotel has been fitted up, The furniture s all of sixteenth century siyle, anda the cost of it has been over £1,000, Carlson, the young son of John Woodward, had @ narrow escae_yesterday afterncon from aserious injury, He was stindine on Broadway near the corner of Pearl strect when he suddenly became frightened at the actions of a lurgé dog that was standing ncar by.

The boy was knocked down, and for a mimte it was thought he was stunned. He was picked up and carried jnto the confectionery stove of 1 Bajrd, He was found not to bo seriously injured, and after a glass of soda water had been administerea with a view to mitigting his sufferings, he declared himself all right, and went home, A brilliant affair took place at the Masonic templolast_evening, in the shape of a ball given by Abe Linco Post, Grand Army of the Republic.

One of the most importac t things they did was to re scind the action of Wediesday in the Council Bluffs street railway company the right of way between the city the Chautauqua grounds. The action was some- what of a surprise to somo people, Lutit was done, nevertheless, It seems that after the grantingof the granting and vight of way someof thosupervisors got to thinking the matte ¢ and came to tho conclusion that they had not done what they intended to do, but instead had opened up the way fora lot of litigation, which would probably be indulged in at some time in the future after the street railway had been laid. When they read the petition over a second tinge itwas plain that they he granted the rightof way to a company which had been extinet for yeus. The charter that 1 afranchise to the Council Bluffs t wailway any, was passed twenty- five years ag: 1 such a thing as paved strets and sewers haa never o pamed n of. Therewas ro no clause in the charter compelling the company topay for any special t 3 purposes. Tle Omaha bridge company has taken refuge be hind the prov i tnat charter, and though it is ug under a later charte the immunities that anted by the earlier oue, supervisors do not want any trouble of t d so, after considers- ble deliberation, they decided that the proper thing to do under the gircumstances was to rescind the grantinge nl 1o right-of-way, ex- punge that part of the record which related to thegranting and refuse to grant the petition A. C.

Foreman, in the amount of §,000, wa approved, and the auditor wus instracted to to him $200, or so much of that sum as should be necessa to pay the cash until the next meetingof the board, One of the most. interesting features of the alternoon session wus the consideration of the bills of the various justices of the peace for the work which has ben performed by them at the expense of the county. The bill of Justice Cones for §, and even that of Jus- tiee Hammer for #22 caused no remark, but when that of Justicd Patton carne up, calling for 5325, the supervisors began toopen their cyes. Then they began to remaiber that uot long ago @ quarrel had ariscn between Judge MeGee and tho police department, the Tesult of which had been that the oficershad iunored the superior court,which according to law is designated as the proper piace to try city casos, and in a good many instances had fled informations before Justice Patton. Then they began to cxamine. Judge McGee was on the ground, and as hehad liad the bill of Justice Patton and had givenit a pretty thorough exumination before haud, ne was able to give the supervisors a good many bits of information that they wanted. ‘Thero was one item in the bill which called for witness fees for Marshal Templeton for cleven days. Marshal Templeton had told Judge McGeo that ke had never testified in Justico Pattow’s court, and how that bill could have gotten there was more than he could tell. Deputy Marshull Fowler was credited with o days which be claimed he bad never lnown anything about, and Deputy Marshal White had in a bill for nine days, when heclaimea.he bad ouly tes- tified in Justice Patton’s court on two ocea- sions Another thing tho judgo claimed to have found in the bill that with reference to the trinl of the Kissel family for the theft of a lot of jewels from the and lotel. There were four in this family, and they were all tried at once, but Justico Patton had put in a bill for each one separately. Three young men had been arrested atone time for creating a disturb- ance in the Salvation Army hall. They too were tried atonce, but bills were sent in for the trial as though they had been held sep- urately. Judgo McGee with the they provided they donot go beyond reasor as follows town- and Carson items. went supervisors and so mony little discrepancies that it was at last decided that the proper thing to do was to call Justice Patton \mfnru the board to explain the affairs of nis office For this purpose it was thought best to ad- journ, and a meeting will be held today for the pirpose of making a thorough investiga- tion. If Justice Putton can explain his bill 1o the satisfaction of the board, it will be al- lowed, butif he cinnot, there is a strong provability that things will be made some- what un pleasaut for him, through the bill pointed out “Am T happy?

A merchant had a clerical friend, be- tween whom and himself there ted a warm intimacy, says the New England Magizine, Every Suturday night, as the merchant was balancing his cash, there would come a note from the mir ter requesting the loan of a $5 bill. money was always restored punctually on Monday morning, But what puzzled the lender was that the identical bill was always returned. On Saturday night he sent a$5 gold picce instead of the usual bill and marked it. Still the very same coin was returned on Monday. The merchant became nervous about this strange fact He was becoming consumed with curiosity when a note came from the reverend borrower on Christmas eve asking fora loan of $10. He resolved tocall and inquire into the . When he was shown into_his friend’s study he found him plunged in melancholy. “Mr. B,” said the morchant, *‘ifyou will answer me one question, I will’ let you have that $10.

The body of Madeleine Duval, aged twenty-two years, the pretty young wife of Lucien Duval, wasfound drowned in an ice-hole in the river. She was an ovpharrfnd had only been married two ars, and was devoted to her husband. The body showed that she had not been long in the water, The remains were taken to her home, where her baby was found crying of hunger. A search for the husband found hi wander- ing aimlessly about in the woods, al- most a mile from his home, evidently almost semi-demented. Thisled to the suspicion that he might be responsible for his wife’s death and he wus watched, ‘When the funeral of Mrs. Duval was held and during the excitement attend: ing the obsequies he eluded his keepers and fled. This evening his body was found hanging in the barn dead. In his pocket was a letter saying that ever since his marriage he had been trying to ascertain who his wife's parents were, she being an adopted child. He had just received information from St. John, N. B., that she was no less a person than his own sister, her mother and father having separated, he going with his father to Prince Ed- ward's island, Shortly after the sepa- ration the daughter, Madeleine, was born, and the mother, too proud to ask help of the father, never told him of her birth. The girl was adoptedand brought to Newport, where Duval met and wedded her, and one child was the re- sult. Being very religious, they were overcome with horror at the discovery, which evidently drove Mus, Duval in- sane and led to” her rash act. Horror and remorse at her fate also drove him to a similar end. The bodies were buried togethe e How He Made the Attack, At the battle of Monterey, General Worth was about to attack the ““Bish- op’s Palace,” a strongly-fortified posi- tion, one of the outposts, General Worth ordered Colonel Hayes to move with his regiment nnd a regiment of Maryland troops under Colonel Jeniffer a West Point graduate,to the reax of the palace, and when the firing began in front that was tobe his signal for attacking the pilace in the rear. The regiments took their position and Colonel Jeniffer asked Colonel Hayes if he would make the at- tack by column. Colonel Hayes did not understand the military terms andsaid he would think of it.
