O man Engage in an Animated Controversy Concerning the Celebrated Production The debate between Ignatius Donnelly and | Prof. J. C. Freeman attracted o good crowd to tho Chautauqus assembly grounds yester- day ufternoou. Boh speakers were in their fighting trim, and the debate was very inter- esting, Most of the audience had been born and brought up in the belief that Shakes- pearc had written Hamlet, Macbetn and the other plays which are commonly attributed to bim, and they were accordingly slightly disposed to resent any trifling with toeir early belief. It must be admitted, however, that when Mr. Dovuclly had finished his first speech, that tne audience had come to the conclusion that perhaps he was right. “The main ground ubon which Shakespeare's right to the credit for naving written the pluys was his iiliter The character of Shakespeare, the strolling actor, the proti- gate wan of the world, and the too often victim of the town whipping post, wus thoroughly discussed, and the tdea of such o mun writing plays which bave stood alone in the history of English literature as master- picces of style, was ridiculed. When Mr. Dounelly's forty minutes were up, he was called to time by a tap of the bell, and Prof. Frecman was given the floor, to took the ground that the Shakespeare plays wero written by an illiterate maun, and he quoted many passsuges from them which ho claimed showed that if Bacon had been wielding the pen they would bave been very different. Liuch speaker was 50 given fifteen wmin- utes in which to answer Lis opponeut. At the close of two hours a truce was culled until this afternoon ut 2 o'clock, when the debate will be reopencd. This morning Mr. Donuelly will muke an address on the “Farmers’ Allianco Movement.” This eve- ning President Hopkins of the First Omaba National bauk will address the audience on the silver question.

City Council Proceedir The council met last evening with the mayor and a full board of aldermen present. M. A. Moore was allowed §1,450.85 and £34.00 for special grading, in full settlement of the city’s account with him. The committee on strects and alleys re- ported ona petition from property owners ucar the coruer of Twenty-first avenue aud Ninth strect asking for sidewalks. In th report they stated that they hunted in vain for anybody in that part of the city who had sigied the petition. and recommended that it be not granted. The report was adopted. The petition for the extension ot the paving, curbing and sewerage on Liucola avenue was granted. Petition for the grading of Avenue E was granted. Tho plat of Mynster’s Upper Broadway addition was edopted. The petition of Peter Thall for lights on Ninth street and Eighth avenue, and Twelfth street and Eighth avenue was granted. Petition of D. J. Hutchison for lights at the corner of Tenth avenue and High street was granted. After u long and monotonous round of pav- ing and grading resolutions an ordinance suddenly flashed into view, probibiting the disturbance of the peace in cortain places. In effect the ordinauce was as follows : “It shall be unlawful for any proprietor, owner, or any one haviog charge of any store, hotel, tavern, or other place of business, to allow any shouting, profanity or obscenity in his_establishment, or any unlawful tran- suctions, or to allow any one to loiter around itiu idléness. Any onc violating this ordi- nanco shall be subject to o fine of not less than $5 nor more than 100, This was plainly intended as a blow at several popular_resorts where hilarily has occassionally been on tap of late, and it created something of & stir. Pace thought the city hud law enough aiready if it were enforced, but the twentieth rule was suspended and the ordinance was passed. Attention was called to the vast « mount of men and labor it took to do a very little work on tho strects, und on motion the street supervisor wus authorized to appoint a fore. man for every gang of men, whose duty 1t should be to give the lazy ‘oncs a “jacking up’ whenever they might tieed it. “Che petition of ~property” owners for the paving of Frank street, Morning Siae avenuo and Elm street with brick was grauted.

The com- mittee was fully represented and the utmost enthusiasm apparently prevailed. Most of the discussion was on the subject of a motor line and the members of the committce had evidently como to the same conclusion that the general public came to somo time ago viz: That the only way to make the assembl ess 15 o’ have some better way getting to the ground has ot devised, Afwer the matter had been fully discussed it was decided unanimously to build a motor line between this city and the assembly grounus.

One of the rear wheels was broken and the whoio family dumped out in w heap in the ditch, The¥ were all considerably bruised, but were not otherwise hurt.
