For some time past he has been actively egaged in winning the affec- tions of Blanche Mulvaney, a girl 15 years of age, who lives with her father on Franklin avenue. His efforts were crowned with success, and the wedding day was set, although he was only apout 17 years of age and without any very visible means of sup- nort, The day beforo the wodding was to occur he declded to make an addition to his wedding outfit and appropriated a pair of shoes belonging to the janitor of the Baldwin block. He was given & thirty days’ rest for this offense, and the wedding had to be post- voned He has only been out of jail a few days, and Friday hie put in all the morning with his sweetheart at the Mulvaney mansion on F'rankiin avenue. Some trifling dispute arose between them aud Bethers went into an adjoining room. A fow minutes later he came out holding a bottie in his hand, from which he had drained about haif the con- tents. He coolly informed the girl what he had done, and then there was o laree femi- nine howl heara, for the bottle had con- tained a solution of white vitrol which had been lying about the houso to poison rats with. Dr. Houghton was called and his stomach pump brought into requisition. After a contest of soveral nours between the boy and the pump the latter was vronounced the victor and Bethers was sayed, When asked whether he intended to kil himself he said hedid. Life had no charms for him when Blaunche would not mind him, and he decided to bring her to & sense of her duty, even if it did cause him an abdominal paug or two. Yesterday he was feeling about as well as usual, and if lovers’ quur- rels can be kept down nothing more serious than marrisge is anticipated for the couple. S S “Fashions™ at The Boston Store.

Petitic The school board held a special meoting last evening with President Wells and Mem- bers Schoentgen, Stacy and Waite present. A petition was presented by fifty citizens living in tbe First ward asking the board to submit to the voters at the next election the proposition of issuing bonds to the amount of £10,000 to erect a new building on East Pierce street above Casper's greenhouse. A second petition was presented bearing the signatures of a number of citizens of the northeastern part of Council Bluffs asking that a four-room building e erocted on the site now occupied by the Gunn school on upper Broadway, and a third asking for a building to cost $10,000, or not more than $15,000, near the intersection of Madison street and Graham avenue. Schoentgen took the floor in favor of the third petition, stating that he was not u can- didate for re-election, and was not afraid to put himself on record as opposed to improve- ments whore he thouglt they were not He stated that the second petition igned by a number of residents of Gar- ner township, and that there were not now moro than eighteen or twenty children at- tending the Guon school, of wnom half a dozen o more lived in Garner township. The first had a little more merit than the second, but not much. The third, nowever, he thought was all right. There ware 237 chil- dren in the district from which the proposed building at the coruer of Madison strest and Graham avenue would draw 1ts attendance, and he moved that the third petition be granted and that the first aud second bo laid on the table. Av Waite's suggestion it was decided to lay all three petitions over until the next meeting, which will be February 15, in order that the two absent members of the board might have a chance to discuss the question. Chairman Schoenteen of the committee on teachers reported tbat the Harrison street building had been duly opened and Misses Minnie Hansen and Mecca Doughty installed as teachers. He also reported that he had roceived the resignations of Miss Stef- feu and Miss Chamberiain and had appointed Miss Swires and Miss Kittie White to fill their places.

On the other band, bighly colored articles have uppeared from the other side, ana parties - iuterested, everything possible veing published that would have a tendency to injure us and poison the minds of our cilizens against us. We are willing to stand on facts and true figures us regards our past business trans- actions in this city, and bave hoped all the time that it would not be necessary to go wto print with our wmatters at ail. -~ But it seems cruel to us to have the minds of the people polluted with & lot of stuff brought 1o their notice in nearly every issue of & morn- wng paper for the past five weeks. Sensatioual articles a rocrod nearly every day during the sessioo of thegrand jury, this on its face. It has been Femarked on the streets by old residents that never in the history of this county has there been 80 much spleen and venoti tanifested on the part of the prosecutidh, their de- termivation being to sccuro afi indictment against us irrespective of merit, justice or principle. We hope that the'did maxim *‘that there are always two sides to a caso” will Lot be forgotten with reference to the charges brought against us since our failure, We commenced business in this city with littie or no capital and only a small credit, and we advanced the business {0 such pro- portions that the Investments in a singlo yoar aggrogated nearly §2,000,000. No fault was found with us 8o "loug as the company could pay large dividends and sell paper that brought large returns. We evon man- aged the company so that during the first two vears of its existence (here was returned to the stockholders in cash one-third of their original investment. If the Grand hotel had boen a finanoial success such as had followed our former efforts' there would have been no clamor raised by anyone, On the contrary we would have been clussed, wo suppose, as shrewd business men and good financiers. The principal crime, if any, therefore is in failing. At tho proper time we will show the people beyond question that our failure was an_honest. one, brought about by the loss of business, unpre- cedented stringency of the money market and at a time when we were ovorloaded with the building of the Grand hotel, followed with its cares and troulles known to nearly every citizen. Tn a large business it is natural to suppose that at a time of a failure some one will meet with a loss, With us it is the heaviest, as wo have lost evervthing.
