COME OF THE SIGHTS HE WITNESSED A1l the Dens of Both Cities Well Fatron- ed—Gamblers in Some Houses Doing & Rushing B At Present. Rev, E. W. Alicn, the young pastor of the Christian church of this city, went out on a s'umming expedition one night last weok. A friend of his, who was familiar with the way the ropes hung, acted as his escort, and together the two made a tour of the tender- loin districts of Council Bluffs and Omaha. Mr. Allen was dressed up in an outfit that presented him to the public as a flashy-look- ing swell with a decidea tendency to gam- bling in his internal make-up. Mr. Allen himself is authority for the statement that his outward deportment was in first-rate accord with his exterior decorations, and this must be epted as official, although there are many who have watched him de- murely breaking the bread of life to the members of his ¢hiurch from his pulpit on Sundays wh ill regret having missed the pleasure of seeing him while he was engaged in playing his new role. : He states that in one gambling house in Omaba he found four roulette tables and four stud poker tables, surrounded by actual count by 12 men. The gambling houses in Council Bluffs are run on a_different vrinci- ple, none but the initiated being able to gain admittance. He was consequently unable to round up these places with the same free- dom that he did- those in Omaha. He made a tour among the wine rooms and brothels of Omaha and Council Bluffs, and says that v one of them had crowds of patrons, the names of many of whom, if announced in public, would cause a decided sensation.

The advance sale of seats has been large and the pros- pects ave that the management will find no mistake was made in bringing this great at- ction to Council Bluffs. The play will be *Renee de Moray,” in which Miss Morris is thought by many 'to find her greatest oppor- tunity for displaying her wonderful power of portraying strength ot character combined with true womanly naturalness.

He says he had been cm“')loycd by Goft for a time, and that Goff owed him $1.50 which he steadily refused to pay. Yeothers at last came to Council Bluffs to see about it, and still Goft was backward about planking down any silver, He accordingly levied on Goff's stock for a pair of trousers which might have been worth 25 cents, and took them away as & souvenir of the way in which Goff did not pay his debts. He had them on when arrested, but as he did not have any- thing else on to speak of his condition as to bodily warmth was one not to be envied, Sdgar Corn! Sugar Corn!

A railway wreck took place on the Mil- waukee road yesterday morning at 2 o'clock, in which the entire freight department of the depot at Portsmouth, the second station this side of Neola, was demolished and several freight cars were badly- damaged, One of the cars of an eastbound freight train left the track and struck the end of the freight depot. Four other cars were piled up on the first car and the walls of the depot were broken like egg shells, It was a total wreck, and the ruins, as they were ex- hibited to the people who were passing through Porssmouth when day broke, formed a sight that will never be forgotten. The station agent and his family occupied the east end of the depot as their home, bup fortunately the wreck stopped before it reached that part of the depot, or all the occupants would undoubtedly have been killed while they slept. The wreck was clearod away during the day sufficiently so that trains could pass, but it will be a good many days before the marks of the accident will all be removed.

If this lady had taken the troubla to investi- gate at all thoroughly she must have found that there was one store in Council Bluffs where she could find gloves of the size she desired. The fact that she did not call at the Boston Store, which would naturally be the one she would first visit in making a search for anything in the dry goods line, is a suf- ficient indication of the lightness of her search. Gloves 6% in size, in almost any shade desired, can be purchased at the Boston stove for $1, $1.25, $1.50, $1.75, $2, or $2 Visit the Boston store before you complain of not being able to find any particular thing you want in the way of dry goods, hosiery, notions or the like, [ — MEXICAN DISTURBANCES, Revolutiontsts Still Sanguine of Galnlng w Victory. Er P4so, Tex., Nov. 18.—The air is tonight full of rumors concerning the disturbance on the Mexican border, but it is absolutely im- possible to verify any report. Tho revolu- tionists in this town and Juavez say posi- tively that Corralitos has been taken, but the ~ Corralitos company's agent hero has heard nothing of it. In fact, they h.vs heard nothing whatever. The man- ager of that company, Britton Davis, has a brother here, Mr. Waters Davis, who says that he has heard nothing, but is confident that the rebels cannot capture that town. A mining man who came up yesterday tells that he was ata little town' between San Jose and Ascension the day the federal troops went out and that he found the gov- ernment pressing citizens into the service with the regular troops. Ho is a reliable man, but as he has large interests in that country he cannot afford to allow his name to be used, —— Finally Paid Up, Sioux Faiws, 8. 10, Nov. 18.—[Special to Tue Bee)—Land Commissioner RRuth has seen fit to send Minnehaha county her share of the interest remittance fund, and vester- day County Treasurer Norton received a warrant drawn on the state treasury for £5,084, this county’s share of the fund.

To the Editor of Tne Bee: In Tne Bee you editorially com- ment upon the late contest for judicial honors, and attribute the defeat of the non- partisan nominees to Burt county and the fact that no enecrgetic canvoss had been made here in behalf of the nonpartisan nominees and a lively still hunt on the part of the partisan fellows. ‘Chis may be true, but tho secret of the whole matter lies in the fact that Burt county republicans voted their _ticket straight. 1t 13 their custom. The leaders have made it a business to teach their followers to vote their ticket and vote it straight. Their _efforts have been rewarded. Judge Walton, who had the “republican.democrat-nonparii- san’ nomination, ran 400 votes belund both Judge Ambrose and Judge Blair, who had the single *‘republican” nomination, when he should have run 400 ahead. An investiga- tion into the cause of this proves couclu- sively, that, when in their booth, voters spread out the ticket and, with the left hand covering the names of the candidates, they run down the entire length of the ticket, making an X after every name huy- ing tho brand of the party to which they be- longed, fand this is true even down to justice of the peace. Business men have confessed that they neither voted for Judge Waltonmor Judee Dickinson, county judge of Burt county, be- cause tho word ‘“republican” was hest from the space to mark that it was not detected, and passed. A reference 1o the vote will show that none of the other candidates veceived the S00 votes lost to Judge Waiton, but his name boing printed with ‘republican-democrat- nonpartisan judiciary” following the name Jost him a very ereat number of republican votes and a lavge numberof democratic votes as well and gained him none. ; Judges Ambrose and Blair had the single word *republican” directly in front of the spaced to be marked, and thoy gov every re- publican vote. g Our own Judge Dickinson, who had both the republican and democratic nominations, admits ~ that he ran fully 200 votes and I can only attribute use to tha fact that the republican” appearcd first and the word “democrat? appeared next to the spac o marked. :“ll:onfu::nly with 1,000 republicans who vote struight. ana 400 democrats, a largo number of whom do their butehering on elec- tion uay, it docs séem that it is sul dal Iml' good men to bear the title nl’"dl‘inn.'rul oven though they be lifelong vepublican: The better class and moro intelli voters of all parties approve of the nonparti- san judiciary, but_forget or overlovl this point in votin| ‘I'he new method of voting Yoo, tends to “rattic” many who fear making a mistake, so they make the X" ufter their Srepublican,” “domocrat” ov “independent nominces toavoid errors, That many cover the names of the nominees with their lefy hands and vote often times for the party name when they intend to vote for a man, and that men vote theiv prejudice instead of their judgment has caused tho opinion to prevail that legislative action should be taken in preventing the party names being printed on the tickets.
