H. Van Brunt's office on Fourth street, near Brondwuy, was opened yester- day morning the discovery was mado that burglurs had been there during the night. The front door of the building was unlocked, both safe doors were open, and the cash drawer had been broken open, Thera was not a cent in the entire establishment, so the burglars were disappointed 10 their hopos of getting rich in a single night. A tie gold watch had been left Iying in a tin box in one of the compartments of the safe, and the box was found broken open ana the watch was missing. A lot of nutes and other valuable papers which were 1n the box were un- touched, The watch was the only article tuken, 5o fur as could bo learned. There 1s 10 cluo to the identity of the guilty parties, but as the front door of the office has a Yale lock it is supposed that the burglary was committed by somo oné who was acquaiuted with the premises A burglary was also committed at the fruit store kept by Carmen & Thilo at the corner of Main street aud Willow aveu The thieves entered by prying up the cellar door on the sidewalk on Willow Avenuc. That they could do this under the bright light of an arc lamp not fifty fost away without beiug caught is u_matter of somo little sur- prise, but they diG_1t, and after filling up their pockets with $30° worth of fruit aud confectionery they made off without leaving could the slightest clue by which they be followed. And That Sett] The question whether Hon man's rofusal to run as a_candidate for re- nomination for congress from the Ninth Iowa district was the genuine article, or was in- tended as a temporary makeshift, bas been asked frequently ever since his declaration was published several months ago in the daily papers. Thero were not a few, in the demucraticas well as the republican ranks, who thought that as the campaign season came on Bowman would reconsider his de- cision and enter tho race again. Later de- velopments go to show that he still _holds to his deternidnation not to run. Thursday afternoon he and . H. Merriam, a well known member of the local democracy, wero seated on the curbstone of the courthouse vard talking politics, and a republican, who is acknowledged to be truttful, was sitting not far away, where ho could hear without being seen. *No, 1 don’t liko the way they do fn con- gress,” said Bowman: “it's 100 much like going to school. You've gottobe there ut rolicall, and then you can go away for awhile, but the first thing you know you've gotto e back for rollcall. Idou't like it, and 1 don’t mtend to run again.” “But, Tom.” rejoinea Merriam, ‘‘vou're theonly democrat in this district that we an put up with the gnost of ashow of winning. “D— if 1 shan’t run.”? And there the matter stands, Thais cecli- nation is considered by his friends to be final, and they are now hustling aboul to find some one else who will pose us a sueep before the shearers. Senator William Grone- weg is being meutioned as & possible candi- aate. care,” was tho rejoinder; “ Greenshields, Nicholson & Co. have choice bargains in improved and vacant residence property in all parts of the city for cash or on payments. See them before buying. Trouble for a Machine Man. Howard Spark, & young man who has been employed as agent for the Singer Sewing Machine company 1n Councit Bluffs, is in trouble as the result of a dispute he had with the manager of the office over a ques- tion of commissions. He was arrested yesteraay afternoon on an information issued from Justice Swearingen’s office charging bim with larceny and forgery. In brief, the story of Manager Turpy of the machine com- pany is as follows : All the ugents wno sell machines have blank leases, which are made out and sizned by the pur.haser und the agent, specifying the terms upon which the machine is vought and the times at which tho payments be- come due. If a machine is sold for cash no lease is required, but the cash is turned in with the order. Wnen Spark took cash orders he failed to turn in the cash, but in- stead made out false leases and [orged the names of the purchasers to them, How long this went on 1s not known, but in some way the fraud was dotected and Spark was ar- vested. Spark, on the other hand, claims to be in- nocent, and declares thut the filing of the in- formation against bim is a piece of spito work, done for thé purpose of getting even with him for claiming some commissions for sales that were made iu the office aud would l;uln-:rafow coming to the clerk in the of- fice. Tue information alleges that the names of the women which have been forged to the fictitious leases are Sarah Olinger, Julia Barry, Sarah Ward and Miunie Gibson. Besides these four, Tarpy claims to have founa another sinco the information was filed, Spark was unable togive bail and was sent to the counuy jail until this after- noon, when he will bo giveu a hearing. Greenshields, Nicholson & Co. can rent some more houses to good tenants. What have you? Raking Over the Ast Oaly the ashes and the still hot walls of the burned portion of the anuex at the Deaf and Dumb iustitute now indicate the fury of the tempest of flame that raged there thirty hours ago. Superintendent Rothert has put all the force at the institute at work clesring away the debris and repairing as fast 6s possible the wreck. The work of clearing away was begun in fact before the fire was fairly extinguished and immediately after the dispersal of the crowds drawn to the scene by the fire, and by 10 o'clock yesterday morning everytuiug had been cleared uway and the confusion incident to the catastrophe abated. The kitchen was only damagad by water, was cleared out in time to get supper after the fire, and before miduight tomporary means bad bocn pro- vided to pump water for domestic use and to obtain a pressure in case of fire, It is feared the loss will be much greater than was at first supposed and may reach 40,000, much depending upon the condition of tho boilers and beating apoaratus, which is still too bot to handle and inspect. The building destroyed was erected by Con- tractors Wickham Bros., and their recollec- 100 18 that the cost was £10,000. Kd Wick- nam yestorday examined the walls and thinks o portion of them can bo saved. It is mow piainly evident that the fire will not interfere 1o any way with the openiug of the autumn terin of scnool. This was Supar- wtendent Rothert's strongly expressed be- lief immediutely after the fire, aod the actvity displayed yestorday and the great progress made makes it appirent that the superiaton dent’s promise to have everything W the usual smoo:h runniog order will be easily kept. ‘Tuere wis no insuratce on the building, as the state does not insure auy of its property.

He toid anumber of stories equally startiine, Ho was put in the county jail pending an exami- nation, which wilkbo given him by the com- wmissioners next Monday. Beatrice Gets the Poet Preacher, Rev. G. W. Crofts, “the poet preacher,” who for scven years past has served so ac- ceptably as pastor of the First Congregn- tional church of tois city, restorday decided to wccept a eall from Beatrice, Neb. The call is @& unanimous ono, and is characterized by the urgency and enthusiasm natural to n young aud am- oitlous church organization. 'Lhe spirit of the society and the promising possibilities of a rapidly growlng field havo led Mr. Croft to this decision 1n favor of Beatrico. The loss which this change on his part will cause here will be feit not only by his particular church but by the commwunity in which ke is re- earded with such respect and esteem.

The committee had the bid of George H. King recommitted at the last meetiag for the purpose of cousulting hm regardiog the putting in of the Holbrook system of Leating and ventilation instead of the Kuller & Warren system. Tbe committee reported that Mr, Klnf had agreed to make & reduction of 00 in his bid on the brick work if the Holbrook sys- tem were adopted Mr. King offered to do the brick work at )0 with the Holbrook aystem. Mr. Gibson was in favor of adopting the Holbrook system because it was a steam sys- tem ana Mr, Holbrook was willing to guar- antee \bat his systom would heat the build- ing with less coal than any other svstem. The Holbrook system will cost §700 wore than the Fuller & Warren system but many of the members were couvinced that steam heat ought to be @iven a trisl and as Mr. Holbrook had offered to place bis apparatus in the building and have it thoroughly tested before asking for & ceut of pay the board thought it a good Opportunity to try steam beat in & large buildiog. A resolution offered by Mr. Martio to adop’ the Holbrook system for the Central school was carvied by & vote of 8 tol. ‘The contract for graaing the Center school grounds was let 10 B, Straeten & Co. sty 5-8 cents per cuble yard, DBids were opeuned for DAILY BEE: tho construction ol the Hartman school, a sixteen-room buifiig on Sonth Fifteeuth street. ‘The lt(‘rbt‘}y was instructed to tabu- late tho bids and Ravs them referred to the ccmmitteo on builitiggs and property.

Tho avohitect said that thore had been 1o applicatious from hot air men to have the plans suitéd to their apparatus and he supposed there ‘woald be no bidders ex- cepting those who wanted to put. in steam. The board decided to rejoct the bids and re- advertise so that both the hot air and steam men might get in, Prof. George M. Turner of Auburn, N.
