The members of the vestry of St. Paul's church have given another expression of their esteem for Rev. M. Babcock, who lately resigned. The expression is in the form of an elegant cane, gold beaded, and duly in- scribed. Mr. Babeock still retains his resi- dence here, and his future plans cannot be determined until he has the full restoration to health. The Mowery adultery case was submitted to the grand jury yesterday. Mowery on be- ing asked to select some lawyer to look after his case, innocently expressed a preference for “Saunders.’” As that gentleman is now ocoupying the position of prosecuting attor- ney for this county there was a smile on the face of the court which could not be al- together veiled, and Mowery was asked to pick again. A little child named Carter, at 2212 Ave- nue B, has been ill for several days, and at the suggestion of nelghbors, the city physi- clan Investigated and found a full-fledged case of scarlet fever. The parents objected to having the case reported, and still more stoutly against having a card tacked up on the house. The card went up just the same, but the neighbors do not feel that it will pre- vent a possible spread of the disease in that locality, as the child is sald to have been playing freely with others while coming down with the fever.

Inquiries that cover pretty nearly all of wouthwestern Towa, which is the garden spot and frult district of the west, show that the late frost has left no perceptible blight upon the fruit crop. In no locality did the tem- perature get in the vicinity of the freezing point, and while wooden pavements and roofs glistened with hoar frost in the early morning the warmer temperature of the earth kept the gardens and orchards and vineyards from becoming dangerously chilled. The western part of Pottawattamie county is one vast garden, and a dangerous frost would have been a calamity of a serious character. Only in a few isolated cases in very low lleys was the frost severe enough to nip the tops of the tenderer vegetables. The grape crop has received no injury whatever. The vines have not recovered from the terri- ble drouth of last year, and that will be the only thing to preyent a full crop. Big Race Meeting.

The eyi- dence was conflicting, some of the witnesses declaring that they had seen scandalous actions on the part of the unfortunate coup'e, while others, whose opportunities for observa- tion had been- equally go-d, testified that Mr. Ostrum and Mrs. Briggs had been models of decorum. The case drags along wearily, as there are many side issues included by an attenipt to show that a streak of maliclous- ness runs through some of the testimony.

P Evangelist Pierson Oontinues to Draw Great Throngs to His Meetings, METHODIST CHURCH WAS PACKED FULL Auditorinm Searcely Adequate to Hold the Crowd that Assembled to Hear the Ser- mon-Success of the Meetiugs I Most Evcournging. The congregation that assembled to hear Evangelist Plerson at the Broadway Methodist church last cvening was larger than that of any previous week night service thus far during the series. If the intersst continues to grow at the same ratlo the large audi- torinm of the church and its spaclous gallery will be inadequate to contain the crowd. Over 200 persons have expressed their intention to lead a Christian life during the progress of the meetings. The meeting last evening was open-d with prayer by Mr. Sarchet of the Second Presbyterlan church. Then followed a very pleasant feature, being a dust by Mr. Johnson and Miss Hattie Palmer. Rev. Henry DeLong was asked for a brief prayer, and he responded in about twenly very ap- propriate and well chos:n words. Mr. Pier- son's text was taken from Proverbs 14, xii., “There 1s a_way which seemeth right unto a man, but the ends thereof are the ways of death.” fany people are trusting to their own righteousness or good works for salvation,” said the speaker, “but the word of God does not sanction such a plan.

His scrip- tural {llustrations were unusually plain and forcible, and he has an inexhaustible supply at_his command. Tonight will be Mr. Johnson's last ap- paranc:, as he leaves for Chicago tomor- row. He has trained the large ch rus choir to a high degree of excellence and they will regretfully bid him farewell. The subject for this evening is “Sowing and Reaplng.” PINCHING THE WATER WOKKS €O, Bourd of Equalization More Than Doubles the Taxable Valuation of the Plant. The clty council continued its session as a board of equalization last night. The bank assessment problem was discussed at length, particularly the petition of the Citizens' bank for a reduction. The discussion was finally peremptorily closed by a motion from Alder- man Greenshields that all bank assessments be left as they are at present, which was car- ried unanimously. The Water Works company's assessment was taken up. The city attorney reported that he had looked up the question of the validity of assessing the mains, reservoirs, hydrants and other paraphernalia of the plant, and had found that the supreme court had held in a similar case at Des Moines that all of this property should be assessed for taxa- tion as real estate. Alderman Greenshields then moved that the assessment be increased from $29,750, as returned by the assessor, to $75,000 on the entire plant, this not to in- clude real estate and other property owned by the company, but not actually used for water works purposes. Alderman Grahl sec- onded the motion, and then the aldermen realized that they had better discuss the mat- ter a little further. Alderman Shubert said he was a little troubled, that it was a steep raise that might make lots of trouble for the city. Other aidermen scemed to doubt the wisdom of the measure, especially in view of the fact that the company's charter prevent: the city realizing anything from the increased texation. Alderman Barstow moved to amend the motion by appointing a committee of threc to investigate the value of the plant. This was carrled, and the mayor appointed Green- shields, Spetman and Grahl. They retired to an adjoining room and held a consultation with City Attorney Hazelton, who was sup- posed to be in possession of such figures in the desired line. After consulting some time, the committee returned and asked for further time in which to complete its investigation. They were granted until this evening, to which time the council adjourned.

Casady, and the Fire men’s Fund Insurance company of San Fran- cisco are in a legal snarl which promises to be a hard one to untangle. Casady has been the agent for the insurance company for some time past, but within the last few weeks a disagreement arose between them and the company decided upon a separation. Casady was not agreeable, however, and refused to give up the blanks and other property of the company in his possession. The company thereupon had a writ of replevin issued, and last Saturday morning was the time set for hearing, In Justice Vien's court. But Vien was out of the city, and sent word to have Justice Walker take charge of the trial. Walker turned up at just 10 o'clock by his watch, but by the watch of Finley Burke, attorney for the defendant, it was four minutes past, or an hour and four minutes past the time set for the hearing. Burke demanded a dismissal, but Walker proceeded to continue the case until Monday morning. When the time came for the trial Monday morning Burke chanced to be in the court room, and as soon as he saw that the case was to be brought up left. Justics Vien rendered a judgment for the insurance company by default. Immediately afterward Burke secured an_injunction from Judge Smith to prevent Vien from executing the Judgment. It has leaked out that since Cas- ady's rumpus with the company he has laid the foundation for considerable trouble and expense to the company by having all the insurance policies under his hand cancelled.

The Duffie case was supposed to be st'll on In the district court yesterday, but to a casual dropper-dn the impression might easily be galned that a new medical college was belng got under way. Anatomical charts with all their bright colorings, surveys of the brain, road maps of the arterles and every- thing needful for fllustrating the lectures of the medical experts, exc:pt undressed bones, were displayed before the jury and wi doctors discoursed on all sorts of possibil- ities, including those of hypnotism. Then there were experts examined as to the con- dition which a bullet would be in after it struck an fron target, and whether there would be any chance for it to glance, and it it did glance whether it could hit any- thing else, and whether if it did hit any- thing else it could do any harm, and it it did any harm whether It would show itself in a man's bair falling out and corns grow'ng on both little toes at the same time. The case promises to last until all the various theories concerning anatomics and projectiles have been brought to bear upon the questicn whether the crack shot who was glving an exhibition at Manawa accidentally shot Duf- fle in the neck, and if so whether the owners of the pleasure resort are in duty bound to pay the damages BOSTON STORE.

FOWLER, DICK & WALKER, Council Bluffs, Ta. Pia ntiff Fald the tosta, The case of the State against Jesse Dun- gan, the young man who got mixed up in his bank account and gave checks on barks where he never had any funds, was called in Justicy Vein's court yesterday afternoon. The prosecuting witness was M. Band. He swore to the main facts in the case, and it looked like the attorneys for the ‘defense would have some difficulty in explaining their client’s conduct. The case, hewever, came to a sudden ending and dis- missal when the prosecuting witness failed to produce the check itself. He explained that he had mislaid it and thought he could find it. The court informed him that if he did not find it the case would be dismissed and the costs assessed to him. The case was continued several hours while Mr. Band was hunting for the check. He re- terned without it and the court lectured him upon the sin of using the courts as collecting agercies, During the colloquy Band frankly admitted that the check had been made good by Dungan’s friends, and then the justice proceeded to assess something over $10 worth of costs to him. The face of the check was $5. All the other checks have been made good and no prosecution will follow. The only grief that is yet in store for the young man_arises from his bieyele transaction with 8. M. Williamson and A. A. Clark & Co. He purchased a new wheel from the former without paying anything for it and mortgaged it to the latter for $16, notwithstanding that he had given Wil- liamson a prior mortgage for the full value of the machine. This case will be heard at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Granulated Sugnr Still Cheap. Best granulated sugar 22 lbs, for $1 at Brown's C. 0. D. Sale Enjoined Again. Several days ago the small annex to the Beck residence was sold by the receiver, William Gruneweg, under orders from Judge Smith, who had decided that it was not properly a part of the homestead, but be- longed to the saloon attachment. The sale price was $350. The other side presented afidavits showing that the property was worth many times that amount and that the sale was not legally made, obscurely adver- tised, etc. Upon this showing the sale was set aside and a resale ordered to take place yesterday at 2 o'clock. When the hour ar- rived there were a number of purchasers who were anxious to get a chance at it, but the recelver was not on the ground and could not be found at his place of business. After waiting until 4 o'clock Flickinger Bros., who are representing the Beck interests, went to Groneweg's residence and found him. They were told that the time for recelving bids had expired at 12 o'clock and that only bids in writing could be received. They tendered bids exceeding $600 and later in the day were informed by the receiver that he had sold the property to John Schoentgen for $510, who was the purchaser at the other sale. These and some other rather sen- sational facts are set forth in four pages of aMdavits filed in Judge Smith's court last evening asking to have the sale set aside again.

Council Blaffs Waots the Telegrapiers. F. E. Gillland was in consultation with citizens here yesterday in regard to the proposed removal of the headquarters of the Order of Rallway Telegraphers from Vin- ton, Ia, to Councll Bluffs, There are many reasons why the removal from Vin- ton to some more accessible railway center is desirable for the order, and there are many reasons why Council Bluffs should be selected as that center. There are many reasons, too, why this city should desire to have the headquarters established here. Mr. Gilliland and the other delegates, to- gether with Mr. I M. Treynor, representing the citizens, will make a strong presenta- tion of the claims of Council Bluffs at the convention which meets in St. Louls next Monday. Among the inducements will be The proposal to pay the entire expense of re- moving the headquarters and a year's free rent_of one of the most desirable buildings in Council Bluffs. The plant consists not only of books, records, paraphernalia, ete., but printing presses, etc., the value of which is about $17,000.

WILL FOLLOW JIM STEPHINSON'S DAY Declded that Electlon Bootha Shall Re- main Where They Are Uuntil After tho Next Regular Eleotlon—itonds of Brown and Deaver Approved. At the expiration of the street sweeping contract with James Stephenson, July 1, the | clty council has decided that the plan shall | be tried of having the streets cleaned by day labor. This was the recommendation last evening of the committee to which the resolution in the matter had been referred. City Attorney Connell had stated to the committee that there could be no legal objections to such a measure and reiterated this opinion to the council last evening. Mr. Overall, on behalf of the Central Labor union, was permtited to spenk in favor of the action, and the report was unanimously adopted. It is stipulated that the work shall be done by electors of Nebraska and citizens of Omaha under the immediate supervision of the Board of Public Works. It was recommended by a committee that James Stephenson be Instructed, under his contract, to proceed with the removal of the election booths, but attention was called to the fact that the contract was dated March 26, its execution delayed in expectation of a special bond election and that in the mean- time the booths had continued to be seriousl damaged by vandals and small boy suggested that under these circumsta. Stephenson would not execute the and the matter was referred back w structions to report forthwith. The final re- port was that the contractor should proceed to remove, but that the bullding inspector as- certain costs of repair. The final action de- termines that the booths shall remain where they are until after the next election. It was agreed that it would coet less to malntain them In repair where they are than to re- move them and the council voted accord- ingly. Thomas Casey's bill in the last appropria- tion of §$149.04, for feeding city jail prisoners for April, was vetoed by the mayor as_be- ing excessive, it being charged that 497 of the meals were charged for at 18 c-nts each instead of 9 c:nts, the contract price. The item was allowed over the veto. The bond of Mrs. Mary Luddington Hull as member of the public library board, with Horace Luddington as surcty, was approved. Approval was given to the bond of W. H White as an electrician, with Solon L. Wiley as surety, A resolution was submitted that the city at once take steps to have the Eleventh street viaduct put In saf: repair for street car and wagon trafflc. Tha resolution was referred to the councilmen from the First and Second wards. Bonds of Charles Brown and D. Clem Deaver as fire and police commissioners, to succzed respectively C. Hartman and Willlam Coburn, were, on the recommendation of the Judiclary commlttee, unanimously approved. The report contained in_the case of each, after mentioning the predecessor, “‘and until the new law goes into effect.” Cadet Taylor submitted a written explanation of his vote, reserving the right to vote against the ap- proval of bond In the case of objectionable appointees, under similar circumstances, claiming that the power, of ,the council to approve or reject bonds practically amounted to a confirmatory power. Emma Carson's claim for $10,000 for per- sonal injuries on account of a defective side- walk was rejected on recommendation of a committee, The request of the Board of Health for an appropriation of $1,250 for the employ- ment of an additional inspector was denied. A resolution by Mercer that all speclal appropriation ordinances ‘be published at least once In the official organ of the city was referred to the finance committee, Resolutions providing for the repair of the pavement on Twentieth street from Plerce street to the Union Pacific tracks, on Six- teenth street from the viaduct to Vinton street were adopted. 1t was decided that the eity council should sit as a board of equalization May 24. An ordinance fixing the salary of the bull ing inspector’s clerk’at §75 per month and providing that the examiner of buildings should receive $4 per day was passed. BENEFITS OF ADVERTISING. A. A. Poole ot Indiana Hought a Place and Some Experience. Several months ago a young man by the name of A. B. Poole was living in a milling town in Indiana. He was a miller by trade and through industry and economy had managed to lay away several hundred dol- lars. He decided to strike out west, al- though he was earning a fair salary where he was. He inserted an advertisement in a milling journal for a job, and incidentally mentioned that he had some money he was willing to loan on good security. In due course of time he reccived an an- swer from a man who gave his name as Bchultz and his address as Omaha. Schultz wrote that he was a miller, that he owned a mill in Cedar Rapids, Neb., and that he was looking for a young man of about Poole's stripe. Several letters were excLinged and finally Poole packed his grip and started for Omaha. He arrived here about a month ago. Schultz met him and in a short time was corvinced that Poole was the very man he was looking for. He promised him a job in his mill at Cedar Rapids, and inquired about the money Poole had. Poole had $263 that he was perfectly willing to loan, Schultz remarked the benefits of advertising, saying that Poole had found a job and also the man who was ready to borrow his money in answer to his advertisement, and then offered him his note for the $263. There- upon, about two weeks ago, Poole handed his money over to Schultz in exchange for the note, the latter at the time saying that it Poole was not satisfied with the paper he would give him first len on a lot of nice fat hogs his father owned at Cedar Raplds as soon as they arrived at the mill. Shortly after Schultz disappeared and has not reappeared since. Poole smelt a ‘‘mice” and, pawning his watch, went to Cedar Rapids. He found no mill, he found no Schultz nor Schultz's father, and he found no hogs. But he did find that he had been worked for a sucker. He returned to Omaha and since that time has been and is now on the war trail after Schultz. He has sucoeeded in discovering that Schultz had stopped ‘at a hotel under another name, and h{ d discovered that Schultz's name {8 not Schultz, but he has not discovered much more. He is out $400, exclusive of his experienca,while in the city, but he finds great comsolation in the fact that before coming wast he invested the rest of his money in Chicago ‘lotu.
