Hunters, it seems, have not confined their attentions to wild game, but have even shot and carried off domestic fowls. It Is probable that the public have not yet learned the new law, and that a no- tice will be all that is required to put a stop to most of the lawlessness. The statute now provides a penalty of not to exceed $10 and costs upon every one who hunts with dog or gun on the cultivated or enclosed land of an- other without first obtaining permission from the owner, agent or occupant.

LIGHTING CONERA! son received working tual LET AGAIN, City Council Ties the Matter Up for Five Yoars telphin Schedule, The cit 1 held a meeting last even- ing, prefacing it by the usual star chamber session, during whic ¢he aldermen spoke thelr minds with comparatively little fear of the consequences. At the meeting at which the public was kindly allowed to be present, the new contract that was drawn up by the special committee, consisting of Aldermen Rishton, Grahl and White, with reference to city lights, was read. It bore the signatures of the officials of the light company. By it the contractors agreed to furnish 123 or more arc lights for five years from December 1, 1804, at a cost of $84 per light, per annum, according to the Phila- delphia schedule, overtime to be paid for, by the hour at proportionate rates. There was considerable opposition doption of this contract, several ners making spzeches against it. rett called attention to the fact that in these days of rapid scientific progress, five years was a long time for such a contract to run, as in two years possibly light could be procured at one-twentleth the present cost. But In spite of it all, the council fcrged ahead and ratified the contract, and Brewick was the only one who voted against it. John Wallace's bill for grading intersec- tions was laid over. . The new ordinance giving the Omaha Bridge and Terminal Railway company the right of way over Union avenue for a single track, was brought up for its first rewding, It requires the company to ¢itablish a cepot at the corner of Union avenu: and Broadway, run trains daily at least, carry passingers and freight, spend at least $75,00 in im- provements during the year 1395, By the terms of the ordinance this franchise cinnot be. assigned to any other céfmpany. After being read the ordinance was laid «ver. City Attorney Hazelton presented his re- port with regard to the city's right to va- cate Seventh street. He sald that while property owpers had th ;[épz to preserve their property from danfagef, they had no right to object, on slight grounds, to im- provements which would be of great advan- tage to the public generally. It was for the council to determine whether or not the fm- provement was needed, and if it was it had the rigut to have it made. Alderman White at once moved that the petition of the Rock Island Railway com- pany for the vacation of the part of Seventh street lying between Thirteenth and Four- teenth avenues be granted, but City Clerk Zurmuehlen read several remonstrances that had been placed on file. One of these con- tained the ndmes of about twenty-five pfop- erty owners on South Seventh street. Among the petitioners were the Sisters of Mercy, the Scandinavian Baptist church and the echool board. Without any parley the council dis- regarded the wishes of all theze petitioners, as had been agreed upon in the star chamber sessidn, and granted the Rock Island its pe- tition. The contract for grading F.fteenth avenue was awarded to John M. Hardin. Alderman Spetman called the attention of the council to the fact htat under the Phila- delphia schedule the lights were not started until_an hour or so after dark, and were left burning an hour or ta longer In the morning than was necessary. He wanted the light committee, aided by the cify and tho electric light company's electriclans, to revise the schedule so as to remedy these defects, This was done, and the council adjourned to meet next Tuesday evening. to the property Leonard BE SON BROS.

FOWLER, DICK & WALKER, Council * Bluffs, Ia. Michael Dolun Exonerated. Early in November there app-ared in The Bee a report of a case tried in the district court at Sloux City wherein Arthur Rhys sued Walter Strange for $30,000. It was charged that certain jurors had been bribed igation was had hoods, of the charges November 7. was Mr. Mich and a hearing Among the Ju examined Dolan, an old resident of Stoux City. The correspondent, in reporting the testimony of Mr. Dolan, misrepresented that gentleman's testimony, It was stated that Mr. Dolan, in his testimony, said that he had mads a trip to Boston-at Strange' cxpense, and that the latter had bought: a plano for Dolan’s daughter. To this pub- lished statement Mr. Dolan enters a positiv denial, and upon car:ful examination of the officlal transcript of his testimony given in the case it Is shown that no reference is made, either by witness or attorneys, to a plano, and the testimony shows that Mr. Dolan's trip to Boston was made at least a year prior to the trial of the case. It was also shown that Mr. Dolan's conversation with Strange in reference to the proposed sale of a lot owned by Dolan to Strange oc curred nearly a year prior to the jury trial Mr. Dolan has resided in Sioux City for twenty years and is regarded as a man of integrity and good character. The report as published did Mr. Dolan an injustice and it is due the gentleman that a correct statement of the case be made, For the Children. W. A. McGuire, a well known citizen of McKay, Ohio, is of the opinion that there is nothing as good for children troubled with colds or croup as Chamberlain’s Cough Rem- edy. He has used it in his family for sev- eral years with the best results and always keepd a bottle of it in the house. After ing la grippe he was himself troubled with a severe cough. He used other remedies without benefit and then concluded to try the children’s medicine, and to his delight it soon effected a permanent cure. President Sanford Talks, President George P. Sanford of the First National bank has offered to settle the case of B. W. Davenport against the First Na- tional bank for $1,750, but it has not yet been decided whether or not the proposition will be accepted. This offer, he claims, is reasonable enough, considering that there is a good deal of doubt as to whether the state has the slightest claim upon the estate of Willlam Parks, in view of the fact that Parks was a non-resident of the state of Towa. Mr. Sanford claims that the estate should go, If anywhere, to the state of which he was a resident at the time of his death. He denies thit compound interest is to be used in computing the amount now. due, and even considers it doubtful if Interest can be collected for more than six months, th time for which the certificate of deposit was originally issued. A, E. Kilpatrick of Filimore, Cal., had the misfortune to have his leg caught between a cart and a store gnd badly bruised. Ordi- narily he would have been laid up for two or thiee weeks, but says: “‘After using one bottle of Chamberlatn's Paln Balm I began to feel better, and in three days was eftirely well. The pacullar soothjig qualities which Chamberlain’s Pain Bajm possesses I have never noticed in any other liniment.

Marrlage May He; ‘Willard James, who is charged by Jennic Billick, his sweetheart, with trying to make an angel of her with an ordinary pocket knife, is making a heroic effort to placate the young lady, with a fair prospect of suc- cess. Justice Field granted him another con- tinuance until today, and yesterday he rustled around for a marriage license. When the license was partly made out it was dis- covered that James lacked a -year or two of being old enough to contract matrimony. He had to go and hunt up his parents, and there is a possibility of Cupid fulfilling his contract some time today in time to prevent the further prosecution of the suit.

The man claims to have lost $35 in cash. He was struck over the right eye with some sort of an instru- ment which inflicted a painful wound, and may yet cause the loss of the eye. Idle is employed by Mr. Van ndt feeding cattle just south of the city. He recelved his pay yesterday and came to town, He returned from Omaha about 7 o'clock. e first went to John Thompson's saloon, where he had a drink. He then went to Zellar" where he took another drink. While in this place Idle met several strangers. Two of them asked him to play a game of seven-up. 1Idle said he didn't want to play cards, but would treat. He displayed a $10 il After the round of drinks Idle stepped out of the back door for a_moment. Here he was assaulted. The first blow felled him. He felt one of the men going through his | pockets and implored them not to kill him. They took every cent he had and ran down the alley. Idle informed the police of what had taken place. Inside of thirty minutes Charles Compton and Hugh Hansen were behind the bars as suspects. It will be shown that these two men followed Idle out of the back door when he left. When searched at the ation, however, neither of the men had any money. Judge Christmann refused to ac- cept bail for the men last night. WILL PROSECUTE MIK Charged with Belng Too Indifferent About Spreading smallpox. Mike O'Hern, who was employed as nurse at the pest house, has finally been placed under arrest. The charge is violating the ordinance covering contagious diseases. O'Hern lives at the corner of Twenty-third and J streets. He was employed to nu Rasmusgen, the smallpox patient, at the p house, and remaired for two weeks, when he deliberately walked away and came direct to his residence in this city. The hous\ fumigated and the clothing worn by O’'Hern burned, O'Hern, however, did noth- ing voluntarily to prevent the spreading of the discase, and it is for this reason that lio is to be prosecuted in the rolice court The complaint was filed by Police Officer Dave Mulcahy, and it was he who made the arrest, O'Hern gave was found at his residence iself up without any resistance, and and got his attorney, Mr. Bell, who signed @ bond of $100 with Mike for his appearance Monday at 3 o'clock. O'Hern states that the reason he left the pest house is becauge he' was starved out, and furthermore that Rasmussen did not hav the smallpox. O'Hern has had the dise himeelf, and thinks-he-ought to know some- thing about it. Onlfhe other hand, three physicians, neither of-whom, however, had ever treated a casé of: smallpox, declared it to bo a full-fledged casé from the start. Chief Brennan says that O'Hern and the patient were giveniplenty to eat. It has now been over a month since Ras- mussen was taken.to the pest house, and no physician will adnpit that he has attended him regularly. The whole matter is pretty well mixed up, and: will be thoroughly in- vestigated. Not disputing in the least the ability of any of the physicians who have looked at the subjgot, there are many citi- zens who would like to have some experienced emallpox phystcian taken look at Rasmussen, in order to get’ wiTeflifion ‘s to whether he has had smallpox or not Pald Firemen's Ball, The annual bell by the South Omaha paid firemen was given in Bauer's hall last night The place was packed to the doors and noth- ing whatever ogcurred to mar the festivities.
