Judge Smith heard the arguments of the attorneys in the Herbert case, in which John Lindt and others are confesting with George Herbert for the ownership of a lot of Council Bluffs property that belonged to Herbert's late wife. The case was submitted and taken under advisement yesterday. Marry Southern, a single man, lost his Teft arm in a corn husking machine at the corner of Twenty-fourth street and Broadway Friday evening. It was mashed and mangled in horrible shape, and had to be amputated Just below the shoulder. He is at the Woman's Christian association hospital. The fire department was called out last evening about 8 o'clock by a fire at the axe handle factory on North Ninth street. The blaze was confined mostly to the fence around the place, and was extinguished with- out much damage. It was caused by some ashes that had been thrown out with some live coals among them. Two small boys, Fred Tull and Harvey James, the former colored, were caught yes- terday nipping onions from the rear of J. R. Bnyder's commission hous Officer Wolf caught them and turned them Into the cus- tody of the city marshal, with a small paper sdck of the precious edibles in their pos- mession. They are charged with petit larceny. Henry Delong had his attention called to a family living in the northwestern part of the city and represented to be in a destitute con- dition.

No charity will be bestowed in this case. Prof. Strayer, the ring virtuoso and in- toxico, was fined $10.20 in police court yes- terday morning.

Two men representing themselves to be connected with the New York Life Insurance company had about four hours of griet yesterday afternoon as the result of thelr taking a note of $430 in payment for an insurance policy. The transaction teok place in the bar room of the Grand hotel, and several gentlemen, among them H. P. Bar- rett, 8. B. Wadsworth and Captain H. L. Henry, who noticed it, had their suspicions aroused that a confidence game was being perpetrated under their very noses. The vietim was a farmerish looking fellow with blue overalls, while the insurance men were well dressed and smooth looking customers. The police were notified and the two were taken Into custody, but in the confusion the farmer disappeared. For several hours they were kept In town by Officers Murphy and Weir. The officials of the New York Life company in Omaha were telephoned to, but they did not know any one of the names given by their alleged agents, The farmer, whose name was Dolan, and who lived nine miles east of tho city, thought he had se- cured a snap, and he would not under any circumstances think of taking back his note for $430 at the expense of surrendering the snap, nor would lie prosecute his benefactors. Tho two men were finally discharged, and at last accounts Dolan was in a saloon cele- brating his good luck, H. 8. Ford, the cashler of the New York Lite, arrived in the city last evening to cxplain it all. He said that both men were in the employ of the company, as they claimed, and that the trouble was caused by Dolan’s’ wife, who thought that her husband was being buncoed, and put the officers on his trail.

Thursday evening the custom of having “ladies’ night” once a week at the League club rooms was organized in a very suc- cesstul fashion, and 50 well pleased were all those present that it will be followed through- out the winter. While the guests were ar- riving some of the ladies amused themselves by conquering the rudiments of pool and billiards, after which whist and high five were indulged in. Some of the ladies are expert players, and the gentlemen found that with all their practice they had no walk away. One of the features of the evening were the refreshments, which were served by Randlett. Fruit tablets with a chocolate background bearing the words, ‘“The League,” in white letters were among the dainties. The guests were: Dr. and Mrs. J. M. Barstow, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Shea, Mr. and Mrs. I M. Treynor, Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Randlett, Mr. and Mrs. V. Jennings, Mrs. Everett, Mrs. Albright, the Misses Gardiner, and Jeanette Gardiner of Lyons, Ia., Miss Key, Miss Wickham, Miss Jeanette Guittar of Columbia, Mo., and Messrs. O. P. Wick- ham, G. H. Mayne, W. E. Altchison and Ed- ward Everett. One of the best entertainments given by any church organization in this city for a long time was the “‘Crowning of the Queen of Fame,” on Thursday evening. The audi- torilum of the First Baptist church was crowded, all of the seats and most of the standing room being occupied. The following was the cast of characters Goddess, Angel Attendants, Cupld, Pake, Ruth, . . Maria Mitchell, ... Pocahontas, frs. . 8. Faes .

Last evening the Ganymede Wheel club entertained their friends in royal style at the club rooms. About seventy-five guests were present, many of them from Omaha. The early part of the evening was spent in listening to a magnificent musical program. Messrs. Bistolfi and Mancinelli, with their “multum in parvo” orchestra, opeued the program with a selection, which was enthusi- astically received. With the assistance of H. P. Sutorius of Omaha they rendered some of the finest music ever heard in the pre- cincts of Ganymede, the “Miserere” from 11 Trovatore and the “‘Intermezzo” from Cay- alleria Rusticana being especially admired. C. H. Ogden sang a solo, “Meditation,” by Chenery, and being encored, responded with “Proposal.” John J, Frainey gave one of his Shakespearean recitations, which was also warmly received. After this portion of the entertalnment the guests were escorted to the dining room, where a feast awaited them, composed of pretty much everything that would tickle the well developed appetite of & lot of wheelmen and their friends. The arrangemenis were all In the hands of George C. Pullman and R. C. Peregoy, who deserve great credit for the manner in which everything passed off, The following is a list of those present: George E. Willlamson, M. C. Van Deveer, Eli Brown, C. E. Parsons, H, D.

Master Aaron Ly- man and the Misses Bedison rendered a charming mandolin and guitar selection. Mrs. Roff's clear soprano volce was heard to ex- cellent advantage. The Misses Mary Bryant and Emma Willlams played a very taking instrumental duet. I M. Treynor rendered Sullivan's “The Distant Shore” in a manner that showed its quiet beauty most effectively. William McCune and Robert M. Weir are Omaha musicians heretofore but little known to Council Bluffs audiences, but their selec- tions were finely rendered and there is a hope that they may be heard again on thls side of the river. The banjo duet by Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Atkins and the vocal duet by Mrs. Mullis and Mrs, Roff were well received, and mention should be made of the efforts of J. H. Simms, who performed the duties of ac- companist in a highly creditable manner. The Union Veteran legion entertained its friends last Thursday evening at the hall of the Woodmen of the World on Upper Broad- way.

An attractive program was rendered, consisting of vocal music by Mrs. W. W. Sherman, instrumental music by Miss Rusk, and recitations by Miss Edith Thomas, after which refreshments were served. The ladies are doing a great deal of effective work to raise money for carrying on the church work.

A Toronto Inventor Devises a Sprinkler ‘Which Wets, Yen Miles of Rallroad, A Qustless street)is a blessing both to prop- erty holders ahd travelers, and it would be hard to find a deylce which contributes more real comfort to the population of a city than the street ralway sprinkler. One of the carliest adopters bf the sprinkler In this country was the' Chicago Street railway, which has for s Bumber of years sprinkled parts of its cablé'lines with tanks hitched on behind trailees on the regular cable trains. They sprinkle only about six inches out- side of tha Tullé of a single track. One man constitutes the crew, his principal duty being to shut off the water when the train stops for passengers. An improved sprinkler has fust been made for the Toronto Rallway company. It has a tank holding about 3,000 gallons of water, and will sprinkle ten miles of single track without refilling. At first it was arranged to sprinkle both tracks at once, but it was found that in the downtown sections, where the headway of the cars is In some instances fitteen seconds or less, it was necessary to shut off when passing motors on the opposite track, which left dry spots every few feet. The plan of sprinkling one track at a time 1s found to answer well; the work is done better, and it costs but little more, for, although the mileage Is doubled, the in- creased speed which can be maintained almost makes up the difference. The tank is filled in about five minutes, the water being given by the city.

State Dairy Commissioner Board- man learned recently that certain creamerics in that county were kept closed against v itors, and began an Investigation, and yester- day seized about 8,000 pounds of butterine or oleomargarine, and 2,000 pounds of butter in which the bogus stuff was mized. The creamery was located at Elkport and was operated by H. 8. Byers. The plan was to ship the stuff from eastern factorles and mix it with pure butter in such manner as to make It difficult of detection. As the imitation butter was very cheap there was a good profit in selling the mixture creamery butter. The seized 1,600 pounds at another creamery operated by Byers at Edgewood, Byers promised to make no fight, but will plead guilty and stand the penalty, which Is a fine of $50 to $100 or thirty days in jail, or both, and conflscation of the bogus material, which makes it a costly business. for pure commissioner also DENIED THE INJUNCTION, Telegraph and Rallroad Companies Quarrel Over a Contract. DES MOINES, Nov. 24.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Judge Spurrier of the district court this morning handed down a decision in the important matter of the Western Union Tele- graph’ comy the Des Moines Northern & Western Railway company and the Postal Telegraph company. In this a tion the plaintiff sought to secure the issu- ance of a restraining order prohibiting the defendants from interfering with it In re- connecting its telegraph wires with those ablished along the line of the Des Moines Northern & Western, with which the West- ern Union claims to have had a contract for the exclusive transaction of commercial tele- graph business to and from the stations on the system of the railway extending from Des Moines to Boone and from Des Moines to Fonda. This contract was entered into March 19, 1880, with the railroad company then known as the Des Moines, Adel & Western Rallway company, and successively recognized and carried out by all succeeding managements until it came under the man- agement of F. M. Hubbell, who, during the nt year, refused to recognize the origi- al contract, and entered into a contract with the Postal Telegraph company, and cut and disconnected the plaintiff’s wires at all points on the line of the railway company with the system therctofore in operation by plaintiff. Application for injunction is denied on the ground of insufficient evidence that a con- tract existed between the Western Union Tel- egraph company .and defendant railway com- pany.

Gave the Burlington Best of It. CRESTON, Ta., Nov. 24.—(Special.>-In the district court yesterday afternoon the argu- ments of counsel on the demurrer in the case of H. J. C. Maine against the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad company were concluded and Judge Tedford rendered a de- cision, sustaining the demurrer, thus ending the suit in favor of the defendant. The ques- tion was comparatively new. It inyolved the right of an employe of the railroad com- pany in case of injuries sustained to bring action in court to recover damages after hav- ing accepted benefits from the relief depart- ment of the company. In this case Maine was injured on or about May 10, 18 He accepted benefits from the Burlington Volun- tary Relief department for several months and then refused further benefits and began suit to recover $2,000 damages because of the injurics sustained. The court held that an employe has a right to and must elect between receiving benefits from the relief de partment or action in court to recover dam- ages. He could not do both. If ha ac- cepted the benefits he had no standing in court to ask for damages, and if he began an action in court for damages he could not claim benefits from the relief department. This question is one of interest to all em- ployes of corporations or companies that have the relief association feature, and the deci- sion rendered by Judge Tedford yesterday is one of, if not the very first, that fully covers tho issue. There was another important issue in the case. In his petition the plaintift charged among other things that the surgeon who at- tended him and dressed his wounds did so un- skillfully, The defense met this with the argument that the railroad company was not responsible for the acts of its surgeon, and in this also they were sustained by the court, Hon, Walter H, Butler Missin CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, Nov. 24.—(Special Telegram.—A startling and sensational piece of news has been received here from Oel- wein, Hon. Walter H. Butler, who for some time has been principal of the normal col- lege at that place, bought a ticket for the afternoon train southbound Thursday, and since that time has not been soen or heard of. His wife and son, who live at West Union, are wild with apprehension, and are at a loss to account for his mysterious disappearance. Mr. Butler was formerly editor of one of the leading newspapers of Fayette county, and four years ago ran on the democratic ticket for congress in the 'Fourth district, and was elected. He became quite famous in con- gress by the introduction of a resolution to make the pansy the national flower, since which time he has been known as Blossom Butler.” Resembles the Mulvern Robbers.

Colored plaster is now so frequently used for finishing the walls of new houses that workmen do not object to its use as strongly as they did a few years ago, and it 1s now a common thing to see the walls of one room colored a pretty buff or yellow, and of others soft reds, old rose and other colors. It is asserted, however, that too much of the colored powder added to the plaster injures Its quality. Bullders are, however, experi- menting with a mortar pulp that comes in all colors and which it is clalmed improves the mortar, A writer in the Art Exchange says that in one of its green shades it s “cool, delightful and fascinating,” and gives the following directions for its use: “To prepare mortar in this manner a small quan- tity should first be mixed with coloring matter and a portion dried before the fire.
