On Sixth avenue, near Twelfth street, there has stood for 80 many years that the oldest inhabitant Has lost track of its origin, a queer nonde- script building, composed of all kinds of building material, ancient and modern. It is said to have boen erected when Council Bluffs was still a Mormon settlement known as Kauesville, and its architect, builder and propriotor was an Indian with a pame that bas not survived tho assaults of fifty yea of change and forgetfulness. Thero have been some wierd stories told of the old shanty, uncanny stories that dealt ia ghosts and hobzoblins, with an sinal mys- terious disappearance of some setbler or vis- iting_redskin. A crowd of gazers have watched the process of tearing away the old place with a morbid curiosity. Nothing, howaover, has been discovered that will jus: tify their loss of time NoOT T} MANAWA LINE. Colonel Reed Smiles Grimly Over the Council’s Néw 3-Cent Ordlannce. Colonel F. C. Reed, general manager of the Manawa motor line, is enjoying a sort of Leatherstocking laugh at the expense of the city council. The occasion is found in the amendment of Alderman Hathaway to the -cont ordinance gotten up for tho benefit of the clectric motor line, making it include not only the Manawa line, but requiring that company to accept and’ issue transfer checks, carrying any passengzers who may present an clectrie motor check, and carr ing them free at leust as far as the limits, “I woula like to have the council coma down and give an exhibition on my lawn for the benefit of the public. 1 believe it would be a great attraction, re better jokers than the end men in & minstrel show. Of course, they know that such an ordinance could not be enforced, and they are only put- ting in their time punning. But I don’t know what they are going to gain by it. In my opinion it weakens their efforts to briug the electric motor to time by discrediting their work and intentious. There is not a school child in town but knows that such an ordinance is unconstitutional, be- cause it is unjust. There will be no b-cent fare on the Munawa line for some time to come, and unless the motor company buys out, the iine motor 3-cent checks will not be accepted for passage to the city limits or anywhere else.

[PR—— Srovx Crry, Sept. 7.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee. ] —Jack Skinner, a notorfously des- perate character, was arrested here today by Sheriff Unger of Cherokee, Ia., for the murder of Martin Schultz and wife, near that city. The murder of the Schultz family was an unusually brutal crime and the citi- zens ot Cherokee offerod a reward of §1,500 for the arrest and conviction of the mur- derer. Martin Schultz and his wife lived on a farm sixteen miles southeast of Cherokee, nd were hardworking Germans who had ceumulated some property and were known 10 keop money secreted in the house, A day or so previous to the murder they took some money from the bank in Cherokee for the purposo of making a purchase of some land, they at the time boing tenants on a farm belonging to Mrs, Schultz's brother. On the night of August 16 the house was entered by unknown parties, and it is sup- posed that in their efforts to escape without being identified the robbers thought it necessary to murder the old people. On the morning of August 17 neighbors who visited the Schultz home found Mr. Schultz dead in bed and Mrs, Schultz lifeless in the yard, a few feet from the door. The house had been ransacked and the furniture was in confusion. Mrs. Schultz's head was beaten to a jelly and the husband’s skull was frac- tured in half a dozen places, either of the wounds being sufficient to produce death. The wounds appoared as if made by & ham- mer, but the instrument of murderhas never been found and the tracks of the murderor wereso well covered that the Cherokee county authorities huve been groping to find a clew, but their efforts thus far have been attended with little success, Sove arties have been arrested, but were released later. County Attorney Hobart of Cherokee, who 180 hiere, says he has an amazingly strong circumstantial case against Skinner.” Skin- uer was near the scene of the murder Au- gust 16 and was not at home that night. He knew of the Schultzes having money and disappeared immediately after the murder. He never had any meauns ot his ovwvn and since that time he hus spent money lavishly here and at O'Neill, Neb. Skinner's claim when arrested that he could prove an aliby by a family named Gurtin, for whom he worked, was quickly exploded. He will be taken to Cnerokee tomorrow. WAITING FOR THE VERDICT.

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—The banks and operators in stocks and bonds are much interested just now in the question of timo money and there is a decided variety of “opinion on the subject. A well known and conservative broker today said: “Time money is undoubted sight and cail money prom easy—is, in fact, fairly eas course money will not'be a drug in the market until the clearing house certifi- cates are retived, but the time when their retirement will be begun is evi- dently not ver, far distant. Many things are combining now to make money plentiful simul- taneously with ‘the repeal of the Sherman law. Superfluous currency is being returned from the west. The country banks, too, are much better pre- pared to provide money for the move ment of crops. Consequently the de- mands on the banks of this city for money to move the crops is likely to be much lighter than usual, That is'shown by the fact that the banks report this weck a very slight demand for redis- counts, Then, too, the banks in the New England and Middle states are finding that they have no use for their Jarge supplies of cash on hand and ave tiring of keeping so much money lying idle. Under the law thoy are permitted to keop part of their reserve on deposit with approved resorve agents, and they are taking ad- vantage of that provision again to send money to this city and receive interest on it.” The savings banks are also find- ing they have more money on hand than they are likely to need. and much of that will quickly find its way back to the banks. Exchange between New York and the Teading cities is becoming nos mal again, and the business blockade is therefore practically over. g0 that every indication points to money heing very pleatiful in thiscity in ‘a very short time. The banks have practically all got their legal reserve, and as _their de- posits increase, no doubt, the loan cer- tificates will be retired.” Mills and Factories Kesaming, NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—Notice of re- sumption in the eastern and middle states continue to come in. The rod mill of the Iowa Barb Wire works at Allentown, Pa., started up woday and other departments will shortly follow.

Somebody had been calling the atten- tion of the ‘wife of the maharajah of Kapurthala to objects of special interest at Jackson park. “So that is the Woman's building,” she sald, as the great white structure was pointed out to her, “Do they allow men inside its walls?” The question is amusing in itself, says the Chicago . Record, and yet a great big interrogation mark of “tho same kind has ap- peared before the blurred visions of a thousand men who have paused at its threshold. It cannot fail of notice that the man who wanders through tho Woman's building seems invarlably embarrassed and i1l at easo. If he go alone he looks conscience-stricken, glancing furtively about as if expecting to be ojeoted. He doesn't allow himself to beecome decply interested in anything and when he fin- ally reaches the bronzo statuo of Lelf Ericson at the west portal he feels relieved. turally enough, the married man accompanied by his wife shrivels into insignificance in this atmosphere. He becomes merely the husband of the woman and looks on moekly as she makes the rounds. He feels about 11 years old and 3 feet 7 inches in height. He may have boen always the self-assor- tive, domincering lord and master of his household, but fifteen minutes of the Woman's building reduces him to a minus quantity. Ho feels submissive to a painful dogree. Yes, the women aJlow men inside the Woman's building. But in the nature of things they can't encourage such in- vasions.
