WHAT THE ROMS ABOUT AND ITS END Nebraska Contrdd Mntters, Park Bonds, Ap- polntments and Romovals f Ofco and the Othe iness That Took Up th cl's T The city council indulged in ono of its old- timo rows last night, and for an hour or more the sixteen mombers who were in at tendance had a reguid;, parrot and monkey tim ¥ The trouble all started when the regular mouthly appropriation was read the third time. Most all of the members voted to pass the ordinance, but before the clerk announced the vote some member aiscovered that the old sweeping bill of Charles Squires was in cluded. This was the rock upon which the council went to plocos. One memoe changed his voto trom *'yes" to ‘‘no,” and on the others followed like a tiock of op goine through a bramblo bush. Mr. Iidwards was in the chair, President Davis having taken a soat on the floor of the houso in order to get a few moments of needed rest, Mr, Lowry and Mr. Specht got an idea that thoy wanted to do a little mouth work. Both gentlemen clamored for recognition but Mr. Edwaras happoned to' catch Mr. Lowry's eye ana that gentleman got his inning first. While ho was talkiug, io an undertone Mr. Specht damned some one, but who it was will never be known. Mr. Lowry Thought Specht Meant Him. Mr. Lowry had an idea_that he was the man who had been damned, and then fol- lowed a sceno that made many of the mem- bers of tho lobby turn pale, for they thought that they smellea blood. The members of tho council woro not seared, because they had been prosont many times before when such farces had been enacted, Mr. Lowry stopped short, ana casting a glunce of with- ering scorn over toward Mr, Specht's desk, remarked, *'You have publicly damued me, and 1 now demand au apology Then Mr. Chaffee, fearing that Mr. Specht might have damued him, demanded the same apology that Mr. Lowry had asked for. Mr. Specht saw that ho was gotting into deep water und felt sorry that he had said the cuss word. “Avology, apology,” demanded sevoral meroers, Then Mr. Specht mado his peace by eating bis own words. Ho said that ho did damu, but he had damned himsetf. “Does that satisfy tho geutiemon?” asxed Mr, Edwards. Tho memby was acceptable. Fora time there was harmony, but the wave ot trouble rolled again when the bill of the Metropolitan Hreet Lighting comvany vas ronched. g Then it was ed that Mr. Bruner, chairman of the §ommittee on gas and eclec’ tric liguts, was not loting fair. He had slip- ped this bill without the knowledge of tho other members o (phocommittee.
