ANOTHER SCHEME 70 CATCH THE UNWARY How Charles Rallly Associated a Confidence Game with & Prepuration to Cleanse Sliverware- The Young Man Runs Agninst the Police, A young fellow of rather prepossessing ap- pearance has been selling spectacles around the city for soveral days past. He took out alicense for that purpose, but the specta- cles were apparently tho less important fea- ture of his stock in trade. He professed to be sclling a mixture that would clean silver. When he struck a place where there was a woman who looked as though she might have use for spectacles e would pull 4 pair out of his pocket in an incidental sort of way and offer to seli them cheap, as e had picked them up on the strect in Omaha and needed money. The spectacies looked like solid goid and the peddler said they were made of genuine pebble glass. He had no trouble in getting anywhere from #2 to €.50 per puir for spec- tacles which, when examined more closely, werce found to be the very cheapest kind of eilt wash and common window glass, and might have cost the seller as high as 35 cents a pair. Some of the victims made a complaint at the police station, and Charles Railly, a young man who has been doing the business, waus arrested yesterday agd slated with ob- taining money under falde vretenses, The police claim to have a number of witnesses who wiil appear against him at the proper time. Raiily says he has done nothing ex- cepting what is done by any enterprising merchant every day in the year. He gave a bond of §0 for his appearatice in police court this morning.

MacDonald, and the same now goes to Mayor Bemis for | his approval. The contract and bond was presented to the council at last night' meeting. It occupied the attention of “the councilmen for a considerable time, and speech making was frequently indulged in, some of the members becoming the least bit personal fu their remarks. The contract is rather a lengthy docu- ment, and it will go into effect the 1st day of January of next year, unless otherwiso ordered by the mayor and the council. The garbage and all refuse matter shall be re- moved at least two and one-half miles from the corporate limits of the city, and within three miles at places designated by the Board of Health where the same will not become & nuisance, The charges for collection and removal shall bo as follow: Dead animals, weighing over 50 pounds, & each; less than 500 pounds, $1; dead dogs, 75 couts; dead cats, 2 cents.

Mr. Hascall led the discussion for those favor- able to the proposition and Mr. Munro fought to have action deferred. During the discus- sion Mr. Hascall and Mr. Munro became somewhat acrimonious. When it came to a vote Munro and El- sasser voted in the negative, as they be- lieved there was undue haste manifested, On the other hand Hascall, MeLearie and other members insisted that the proposition was a good ouc and should be speedi suapped up. Dr. Somers was present and he was called on for his views. Ho considered the schemo the best and most feasible yet suggested. As soon as the ddctor compleied his remarks the bond ana contract were approved.

Casey, who has formerly had the contract, was charged by Munro and Bruner with furnish- g impure food. However, his frienas were m the majority and he secured the contract The committee on sewers recommended that house roll 460 be incorporated in an ordinance, as per request of the Journeyman Plumbers’ association. The ordinance was read the first time. It provides qualifica- tions and prohibits others than journcymen plumbers being appointed iuspectors of plumbing. The sewer committee also recommended that Plumbing Inspector Duncan act in ac- ance with the directions of the city at- v with referenice to turning over all recoras and matters pertaining to excava- tions in streetsand alleys to John B.

The money, not the tariff, was the all-absorbing question, as he had always contended.

No tariff talk in any shapoe for him. Money, money, and plenty it was all he war ed. The middle of the road was what he advised his party to tako, and then it “made some difference as to what animals they used,” to use itis own ex- pression.
