BENNISON BROS., Council Bluffs, Will Arrange for the Fourth, A meeting of citizens is to be held this evening at the court house to make arrange- ments for the celebration of the Fourth of July, in accordance with the mayor's proc- lamation. It is desired that this meeting be as largely attended as possible. The celebration which it is proposed to have should be participated in by the public generally, and the indications already are that the citizens mean to combine to make it an all around success. This evening com- mittees will bo appointed to take the lead in the matter. Among the suggestions that have been made is that the committee on arfangements provide a purse of $150 for a prize drill of military companies, and then invite the companies of lowa and Nebraska to compete for it. This would have the advantage of interesting the people of out- sido towns in the Council Bluffs colebration, and might be of great assistance in swelling the crowd. Dalbey's band has agreed to help drum up & crowd this evening, and with that end in view will give an open air concert on the street, and will also play at the court house.

The workingman with his family of little ones, the young man with his prospective family, the ‘‘upper ten” with their carriages, were all there and spent a delightful afternoon, loafing on the grass under the shade of the trees and listening to the delightful music of the band.

Patriots at Church, Last evening, being the Sunday before Decoration day, was the time for the inate patriotism of the varlous military orders in Council Bluffs to manifest itself by going to church.

In accordance with the time honored custom the vacant chairs of the deceased members were draped in black. W. H. Spera de- livered his past commander's address and Colonel D. B.

The Cutlcle of @ Thirty-Year-Old Now a Part of Correct Neckwear, Just several shades removed from the chameleon fad is the idea of wearing snake skins for neckties, but the fashion is grow- ing in Baltimore. It promises to become quite the proper caper to be seen in im- morning suit of the latest London cut, with the tanned cuticle of a three-foot reptile neatly tied around the snowy \oker coliar, or whatever other style of linen neckwear happens to be the The fad will never become generally violent, s the New York Recorder, tor fine ake skine come high, and the crop may thin out 80 as to let the West Virginians, who make a t of catching the possessors of variegated outer coverings, create a corner in the market and coin a fortune. To be in the swim s and have the swagger thing in a Baltimore man must not only wear a snakeskin, but the cuticl rattler” of about 30 years of age. The ullar color of the rattler when he has sed in his checks and gone to snake ce- lestial spheres, fs what makes the skin more able than when his fangs are still doing the poison busincss at the old stand. The necktle must be that of a snake of age, standing and family, for a young scion of the house of rattlers doesn’t seem fo pos- sess all of the qualifications as to color and durability of hide the head of the house can lay claim to. Presumably it's because a snake of three decades or so has been through all of the different kinds of dissi- pation known to the reptile world, and his physical hide is cognizant of no more com- punction than his moral nature. Then an old rattler is generally larger than a young . id a tie about a yard in length is bound to bring more in the market than a whipper-snapper snake could show before he reaches his majority. No other kind of a snake indigenous to this section of the coun try would answer the purpose half as well as a rattler, because but few varieties at- tain his length and Falstaffan girth, ex- cept the copperhiead and black snake, and their colors, while brilliant enough during life, are not of the right shade after the tanner has had his innings. A copperhead skin assumes too much of a dull brown to harmonize with odd ideas in xuivkl\\rm'. and hide maculate siness the black fellow—well, his might answer for a secdy individual's mourning tie, but nothing else. The rattler's color when all the fight has been taken out of him and his remains have been subjected | to the process that prepares them for men’s furnishing use, is something on the very dull gold or ecru order. The black rings show distinctly and they lend the odd effects that has so captivated the swells. Then when a back and lining have been put on the skin the tie is ready for use, but they are worth an even $3 any day, counting 2.50 for the skin, which Is the average price of a rattler of thirty vears' standing, including all the trouble. the catcher and tanner combined have had to take. —— GENERAL KETCHUM'S PET. ading Off a Veto Bill. Among his many admirable qualities, says the Washington Post, Congressman Dunphy is a charming story teller, and many a mid- night supper at Chamberlain’s has been en- livened by his charming stories, apropos of which Is the following: In the Fifty-first congress Mr. Dunphy had for his neighbors both temants of the Cherckee Strip and General Ketchum of New York, who represented, among other interesting communities, the city of Hud- son. o1t had been the general's custom during the many years of public service as congressman o introduce, and uni- formly fail to pass, a certain’ bill appro- priating $300,000 for the erection of a pub- lic building at Hudson. This measure was the general's one ewe lamb in legislation, and he went back to his constituency year after year sad at heart at its repeated failure to become a law. But at last, in the Fifty- first congress, he steered the bill safely through all the dangerous shoals and cur- and finally it had actually passed both houses of congress. The general was in an ecstacy. He had gained the crown of his ambition. But just when his felicitations were liveliest he began to hear disagreeable rumors of an impediment at the white house, and one day he leaned over his seat toward Mr. Dunphy, and, “‘Dunphy,” he said, in his shrill, tenor ‘whisper, ““do you know, Dunphy, that 1 believe the oid man's a-goin’ to veto that there bill o’ mine?" “No,” exclaimed Dunphy, don’t say?" 1 do, Dunphy, I think he's a-goin’ to a Public Bullding incredulously, o0 says s0?" “Well, a lot of them fellows who all the time knows thing “Well, why don’t you go see him?" ‘That’s what I'm goin’ to do.” The next morning the general arrived at the house late, and with an expression of countenance lugubrious if not e ctly tragl “Well, general, have you seen him? asked Dunphy. “No,” said_the general, shortly. “Why, not?” “Weil, I went up there, an’ 1 see Halford, an’ I says, ', ‘Lige, 81, ‘what's a-goln’ to happen to my bill?' &'l He says, s'he, ‘I'm feared it's struck a snag,’ s'he. ‘What for?

P bt OTTO'S COLONY OF WHEELS. The King of Bavaria u Pr Motions: Dispatches announce tuat the upper house of Bavarla has decided (g depose the insane King Otto and Install Prince Luitpold, who is acting as regent at pregent, Otto's mental of Whirling condition Is dark and terrible. He lives since his accession, as he had lived before, shut up in the small palace of Furstenreid, about two hours distant from Munich. Of late s his malady has taken the form of stupor, though there are still occasional outbreaks of violence. There was from the beginning no prospect of recovery or even of improvement in his case, although it was foreseen that his me animal existence might continue for a long time. He occu ples a suite of apartments on the ground floor, the doors of which, as well as the out- side door leading into the garden, are always left open In the daytime, as a closed door immediately excites his rage. He seems suspicious of restraint, and his attendants conceal as much as possible an appearance of authority over his movements, Once he broke all ihe front windows of his apart- ments, and since then the glass has been protected by wire, and otherwise there is nothing to indicate that a lunatic inhabits the premises. The rooms are handsomely furnished, and everything that can amuse the patient is promptly supplied. The king is alwa beard is very long and thic not allow It to be trimmed washes his face and hands 1 in black. His . and he will He often but can seldom He I8 ex- v fond of cigarettes and smokes about enough in itself to make him be persuaded to take a full bath. treme and keep him so. I time he lights a cigarette he burns a whole box of hes, and seems to enjoy the no and flame. He often walks out in the park, but is very unwilling to drive out, probably be- cause it annoys him to be looked at by the people in the road. The sensational re- ports which appear occasionally in the pa- pers concerning King Otto are for the most part false. The truth is, he has no marked desire for anything. His gaze is generally fixed on vacancy, and he does not appear to recognize even his servants, excepting an old woman who has charge of the silver. He has known her all his life; she used to carry him in her arms when he was a baby, and it is fouching to see how the last faint rays of his fading intelligence rests on her alone. When he sees her he calls her name in a loud tone, and orders her to bring him a glass of beer, or whatever he may happen to think of, but he soon forgets what he has said and relapses into his usual state of apathy. Two-of the most prominent physicians of Munich are in attendance on alternate weeks, and every Sunday the director of the insane asylum visits the palace to examine him and make the medical report. At rare in- tervals the king speaks coherently to his attendants, and it is said that soon after his accession to the throne he remarked to a lackey, “Henceforth you must address me as your majesty.”” But; this story does not ap- pear to be well founded, and it is certain that when Princess Theresa went from the death-bed of the quaen-mother to apprise the son of his loss, he showed no signs of com- prenension, and was unmoved by the grief of the princess, whose tears were doubtless more for the living than for the dead. Although King Otto is-unable to recognize his relatives, attendfintsior friends, and re- mains for hours mationless in_his padded room, he has lucid,intervals. Not a great while ago, he suddgnly, recognized his at- tendants and becamp cognizant of his lofly position. A cavalier about the castle asked other Narcotic substance. feverishness. Castoria “ Castorin Is an excelient medicine for chil- dren. Mothers have repeatadiy told mo of its good effect upon their children,” Dx. G. C. Osaoon, Lowell, Mass. * Castoria Is the best remedy for children of which Iam acquainted. I hope the day is not far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, cnd use Castoria ia- stead of the various quack nostrums which are destroying their loved ones, by foreing opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful agents down their throats, thereby scading them to prematuro graves."

In order to avold an attack of vio lent excitement, probably in case of a re- fusal, a court carriage was summoned to the castle steps. The king, one of the phy siclans, and an attendant clad in royal livery, to avold suspicion, entered the coach, which started on fts J oy, Looking out of the window, the king saw a meadow al- most covered with variously hued flowers, He expressed a desire to gather a bouquet to present to his mother, and the coachman stopped while he plucked the flowers, But the work was too tiring, and he returned to the carriage completely exhausted. He was taken back to the castle and placed in bed. When he awoke the following morning his reason was again clouded, and he had en- tirely forgot the journ Munich, - AND IT WAS WATER.
