On recommendation of Councllman Brewick the petition for a house sewer on Harmony street was refused. Owen Cunningham had a petition In asking for some work on the streets in order that he might earn enough money to pay his taxes. One of the councilmen reported that he had already had employment on the streets, but had been unable to let the flowing bowl alone.

F. Test handed in a voluminous com munication with reference to the Citizens’ State bank. The burden of it was that the bank was not a fit place for the deposit of the city funds, unless a proper bond shouid be given. The communication was put on file, With reference to the Pearl street paving Councilman Greenshields stated that he had talked with some of the park commissioners out the part of the expense which they were expected to pay and had found them favorable to the scheme.

Trey Her Obscenity from the P Josie Hulbert Long, who has acquired a reputation for foul language far beyond her years, overstepped the mark yesterday morn- ing while she was having a trial in police court on the charge of vagrancy. Officer Murphy was testifying as to the fact in the case from the side of the prosecution when she suddenly interrupted him with an ex- clamation of about twelve words, only threo of which could be represented in print by anything but long dashes. The ebullition of profanity and obscenity causad the hair to rise on the scalp of the baldest headed man in tho room. “Take her out! Take her out” ordered Judge McGee, Deputy Marshal Jim Ander- son, who blames Josie for his present nick- name of *Rubberneck,” gladly came to the front to executa the court’s order, but found he had all he had bargained for and more too. She bit, scratched and fought all the way out of the room, and finally had to be carried down stalrs, clawing at Anderson's flaxen moustache at ever step. Judge McGee entered an order restricting Josie's diet to bread and water for the next two or three days, during which she will have time to ruminate over the danger of losing one's presence of mind in court. A clerical looking man, who called at her cell during the afternoon to offer spiritual consolation, was turned away with a torrent of Invective. Fred Green and Susie Parker, a brunettes who were charged with being ac- complices of Josie, were fined $17 apiece and given tickets entitling them .to admis- sion to the city jail for twelve days. Fred Stone, the colored man who assaulted and threatened to shoot Conductor D. R Hughey on the motor line a few days ago, was bound over to the grand jury on the charge of assault with intent to kill. In default of a $300 bond he was sent to the county jail. pair of Wanted.

SMITH & CO. Apollina “THE QUEEN OF NOW SUPPLIED EDITOR HOXIE IS QUITE Physielnn's Certifiente Keey of the Oficinls’ Clutehe Deputy United States Marshal Hillweg re- turned yesterday from Corning without W. H. Hoxle, editor of the Adams County Ga- zette, who Is wanted to plead to the charge of sending extra papers at pound rates with- out marking them as samples. Hoxle Is suffering from a severe attack of inflamma- tory rheumatism. His hands and feet are swollen to an abnormal size and they alone would probably have saved him from arrest, but when they were reinforced by a phy- certificate, saying that he must not moved from his bed, Hillweg took the certificate and dropped the prisoner. The chances are that Hoxle will be confined to his bed for a good while longer, for it is stated that he has been ill ever since June and all that time has hardly been out' of his house. in the case of the United States against John Ki ly the United States put itself unmistakably on record yesterday as having no objection to beer. Kennedy was indict-d on the chargs of bootlegging, but he claimed, and the evidence showed, that he had sold nothing but malt liquors. His attorneys put in an objection to the Indietment after the jury had been drawn. Judge Woolson held that as the instructions from the department to the revenue collectors were that the sale of malt liquors alons does not constitute an infraction of the anti-bootlegging law the jury must bring in a verdict of acquit W. B. Ballard of Creston was tried almost all day on the charge of impersonating an officer and trying to bleed a suspected boot- legger of money so that Ballard would not begin action agalnst him. The defense upon which Ballard relled was that when the of- fenge was committed he was just recovering from the effects of a prolonged spree and v to all intents and purp %0 that he afterwards had to be taken to the state hos pital for treatment. The evidence showed that on one or two other occasions Ballard had tried a similar trick and a verdict of guilty was brought in. James Hall, Willlam Miller and John Trues- dell, all indicted for bootlegging, were called by name, but did not respond. Bench war- rants were thereupon issued by order of the court.

Relatives found the note and search was at once Instituted for the would- be suicide. He was found in his room, lying upon the floor in an unconsclous condition, an open razor by his side.

DES MOINES, Oct. 7.—(Special Telogram.) ~The Inquest over the body otUacob Hend tickeon was In progress todgy. Hendrickson's body was found hanging under a railroad bridge, but the sulclde theory was not borne out by clrcumstances. The juty Bad found wit nesses who had heard screams as of a woman on the bridge In the middle of the night. Others saw a hack'irive up to the bridge and unload something thde might bhave been a body. It has also beed found that Hendrickson had a considerable sum of money on his person shortly before he dis- appeared. Several hairs from a woman's head were found on the rope with which he hung.

Water ¥ Willing to Settle, DES MOINES, Oct. 7.—(Special Telegram.) —The water company, which last week was defeated completely by the decision of the supreme court sustaining the vaiidity of the ordinance reducing water rates about 40 per cent, has communicated to the city its d sire to settlo the matter without further litigation. It Indlcates a desire to accept the es provided, with only minor changes in regulations. It has been expected the com pany would carry the case to the supreme court of the United States, and there is more rejoleing over the lastest move than over the court decision. The proposition has not been made in detail, but will be laid before the council very soon. The artesian water com- mittee, which has managed the fight on be- halt of the citizens for three years, will meet Wednesday and agree on a plan to force the city to at once grant the new rates, if an amicable adjustment is not reach he company has found a legal point on which it can still charge the old rates for several months.

Chairman Walters of the fjudiclary com- mittee reported adversely upon ordinance No. 666. This ordinance was intended to com- pel the attendance of members at council meetings and proposed to delegate the mayor the power to fine absentees. The commit- tee was not in favor of giving the mayor any more power than now delegated to him by the city charter, and further the committee did not think that the imposing of fines would be legal. The report of the committce was adopted Mayor Johnston called Blanchard to the chair and told the council how much money the negligence of the members had cost the Board of Equalization. Frequently the clerks had been compelled to readvertise meetings of the Board of Equalization because the members failed to be present at the time set Another ordinance will be prepared apply- ing only to meetings of the Board of Equal- ization. Walters said that he would report fayorably on such an ordinance and the clerk read an ordinance covering this ground. It provided that the mayor might at his dis- cretion fi member in the event that he was abs: om any meeting of the Board of Equalization. Under a suspension of the rules the ordinance was read the first, second and third times and passed. An ordinance directing the South Omaha Blectric Light company to erect and maintain are lights at Twenty-fourth and B streets and Twenty-fourth and D streets was read a first time and referred to the judiciary com- mittee. A petition signed by St. Agnes’ church and others, requesting that the grade on Q street at Twenty-third be reduced five feet and that the grade on Q street from Twenty-second to Twenty-fourth be changed to correspond with such a reduction, was read and referred to the committee on’ viaducts, streets and alleys The council accepted an tend the Good Shepherd hall, Omaha, this evening. Walters asked to have special policemen appointed for thirty days, to be stationed on the L and Q street viaducts, to arrest per- sons driving faster than a walk over the structures. The motion prevailed. Chief Brennan was instructed to have the necessary repairs made at once on all side- waiks. The city attorney will draft an ordi- nance for grading districts No. 28 and 29, Franek wanted an ordinance drafted for the placing of a water hydrant at Twenty-fourth and 8 streets.
