Chairman Wood of the finance commltto
in the city council was engaged yesterday in
trying to reconcile some differences botwoei :
the city engineer's original and final esti
mates of the work donoon the old levee and
the amount ot warrants Issued in paymon
for the work. The original estimate auowi
over twenty-ilvo thousand yards of cartl
would bo required for the bank , and the flnn' '
estimates agreed with it to tlio fraction of r
cubit foot. The city records show thn1
warrants to the amount of $1,115.83 , wore is
sued to Contractor Moore In full pay
ment for the work ilono , and this sum ngroo :
exactly with the engineer's original ostlmnt
of the cost of the bank. The warrant regls
tor shows that this exact sum was covcrc
by the warrants issued to the contractor upo
llnal settlement. While looking up the matter
tor of the $ ' , ' ,100 of outstanding warrants
drawn ngnlnst the fund that was created bj
n special tax to pay for the levco the commit
tee made the discovery that warrants to th <
amount of $785 had been issued for the wort
In excess of tbo amount of thi
engineer's original and llnal cstl-
mates. A largo portion of the duj
was spent in iiununir through thn record !
bcforo the entries of the warrant rcgistc
could bo explained. The rcRislcr showo
that warrants to the amount of StOJ had lee
issued to N. Mcrrlnm. a to J. W. Paul
Sia.UoT.J. Evans and § 150 to C. J. Colby
The sum of tueso amounts Just equal the ex
cess spokoa of. After a good deal of scarol :
ing an explanation was discovered In the clt.
clerk's minutes of a meetliiR of the council i
January 1858 , when Mr. Evans presented i
potltion asking for the Issuance of warrants
to the amount of $ ? S5 to reimburse him foi
money advanced to the contractor who
built the levee. The records show
hut the potltion was referred to the finance
committee , composed of LuciusVclls and
Joslnh D.mfortli. and that it win reported
favorably by the council and the warrants
ordered issued to Mr. Evans. The reason
for the issuance of these , warrants is sorely
puzzling the present ilnanco committee. It
makes the cost ot the levee $1,000,73 instead
of f-t,115.73 , as shown by the engineer's esti
mates.
In lookingup the matter yesterday they
discovered that the money was advanced by
the citizens named , and that the warrants
were issued to thorn in repayment nt the In
stance of Mr. Evans.
The lovcc problem Is a moro intricate puz
zle to the member ) of tbo present council
than the "pigs in the clover" puzzle over waste
to the dullest Juvenile mind , and now , when
they are even unable to tell he , v much the
old bank cost , they nro still moro deeply
troubled.

W. II. M. I'usoy and Georpo F. Wright
the committee appointed a long tlmo ago to
hold In trust thu stock and other property
belonging to the Union depot company until
such time as the railroads should sco lit to
take It off tholr hands , have been the subject
of much adverse criticism lately on account
of the lack of Interest which it
has been claimed they Jiavo shown in the
uepot affairs. They were appointed to act as
general managers of tbo company , and , in
fact , almost all that hns hcon done In the
furtherance of the scheme has been cither
done by them or not done nt all.
For n long time past nothing nt nil
hut been heard of the depot and the
public hns been wondering whcro In
the world that contract was which was
entered Into by all the roads and the depot
company In accordance with which work waste
to bo begun within slxfy days past. vVhou
asked about It the gentleman who were en I-
gineering the depot schema have Invariably
replied that they were moving , heaven ana
earth in a mild sort of way and that the
depot was comlntrall richt.
The iwtltlon which was signed by the city
council last week for prc&ontntlon to the rail
way commissionerslusldiig them to take such
steps ns might bo necessary to compel the
companies to fultlll their part at the contract ,
evidently brought things to a crisis , as the
following open letter snows :
COUNCIL BLUFFS , la. , Jan. 20 , 1S91. To the
Stockholders of the Union Doixjt and Hall-
wny Company Gentlemen : It Is rumored
that the lowit railway commissioners will
soon bo asked by tho- city council nnd others
to require the railroad companies to build
separate imssenger depots In the city in
stead of all joining in a union donoU That
policy has always been advocated by those
who would not expend any of their money in
securing a union depot , nut was abandoned
when you contributed your $ . ' .1,000 toward
that end , It Is well known that is- such ap
plication Is inado , the railway companies will
simply reply , wo cannot build separate depots -
pots , unless wo arc , llrst relieved from our
contract with thu union depot and rail
way company to build a uulou depot
lu Couuch Bluffs. Aud they also cuu
than reply to the union depot company , that
the people of Council Bluffs nro now seeking
to compel us to build aepanUo depots , nnd
lionco do not want n union depot built.
JJetwce.i the two claims wo shall got no
dnpots of nn v kind. The best plan for vou to
adopt is , It tuo present depot committee Is
not pushing the matter ns vigorously ns It
ougbt , to have a mooting of the stockholders
called , and a now eorutnUtco appointed. Very

Did it ever occur to you that the tlmo could
como when it would bo necessary for men to
rack their brains , inventor to tax tlioi
genius , to dovlso means of moro rapidly mall-
ing letters than the old way of licking the
gummed edges of the envelopes and pound
Ing them on the top ofyourdoaki There
cipient of the epistles of the love-sick youtl
who used to wrlto his darling every hour in
the day Imagined she had a task to perform
when sbo had to tear the wrappers from
the letters uud read their contents. They
both believed they were ciuelly taxing th
facilities of the United States mull. Th
business man , who , with the aid of the type
writer and shorthand amanuensis , consign :
several hundred letters to the daily uial
imagines that ho has accomplished a big Job
"but what you think of being compelled tc
address and mall 4,000 letters in a slngli
day)1' ) inquired W. J. Jameson , secretary o
the United States Masonic Benevolent nsso
elation of Council Bluffs yesterday afternoon
ns a reporter for Tun BKK was chatting with
him in his ofllco. "Wo mailed that number
of letters in a smglo day not long
ago , and our daily mail is so large
that wo hnvo oeen compelled tc
resort to mechanical means of sealing nnd
keeping account of the letters. Wou ojust
10,000 stamped envelopes a mouth , a id wo
know that everyone of those letter i cot Into
110 malls , and here's how wo acct mpllsh It. '
And then ho took the reporter into an ud
joining room and showed him a novel device ,
a mailing machine that cjplcs the addresses ,
sals the envelopes an.l deposits them in ono
of Undo Sam's ui ill boxes at the rate of Itor
a minute. . It Is an ingenious tr-
rangemont that was conceived In
busy br.ln of the secretary to si.r
mount what was fast becoming an In < ur
mouiitublo difficulty. The machine Is located
in the second lloor of the Masonic temple and
Immediately beneath It on the outside of th
building the postolllco ollleials hnvo placed
public mall box of tlio largest size. A gal
vanlzect iron spout runs from the mailing ma
chine tbrough the lloor and into this box ,
Every revolution of the crank copies the ad
dresses , seals and drops into ttiis mail box
three letters , and ns both ends of tlio sulmt
are protected by government mall locks n
letter can be lose.
This llttlo Invention indicates the marvel
cms growth of the Masonic Benevolent nsso
elation. And when the plan of the associa
tion is examined its marvelous growth and
phcnomlnnl success is not bo wondered at.
First and primarily it Is financially strom ? .
It has a guarantee fund of $127.000 for the
payment of each assessment. This assures
the bcncttclary the full amount of his insur
ance. The Interest on this fund reduces the
cost of Insurance annually. This Is Illustrated
by the fact that the association , which
is ouly four years old , paid ono
death benefit m 1883. two in 1SS9 , and
three in 1800 from the interest on this guarantee
anteo fund. When a member lapses ho leaves
his guarantee fund for the benefit of the per
sistent members. The fact that this fund is
constantly increasing enables the association
to make good its claim that it can furnUh
cheaper and hotter insurance in ten years
thun any other Masonic Insurance the
world. It Is straight Masonic , nnd Masons'
should investigate the plans and financial
standing , and Insure in this reliable associa
tion. It Is gilt edged. Incorporated and com
piles with the strict Insurance laws of Iowa ,
tills state having the strictest laws
governing assessment associations of
nil the states In the union. The fact that the
association is growing so rapidly that It oc
cupies a largo portion of the second lloor of
the great Masonic temple Is substantial evi-
denci ) that it moots moro fully the require
ments of n benevolent association than any
other in the ordor.

A aulot but happy event occurred nt 8
o'clock last evening at the residence of Mrs.
A , J. Bump on Stulimuu street. A party of
,
the Intimate friends of Mr. Vuno Lane and
Miss Miunlo Martin assembled to witness tha
ceremony that united the two young people
ns husband and wifo. Miss Martin has boon
chief operator in the Council Bluffs telephone
exchange , and Mr , Lane is manager of the
Omaha exchuugo. When Mr , Lane had
charge of the Council Bluffs oHlca
MUs Murtln was ono of the first young
ladles hn appointed to a position , and she
rapidly won tier way to the highest place in
the oftlco , She is ono of the handsomest and
most popular young ladles In the city , and it
was ( I'jlto natural that the snares that Uunld
net should catch Mr. Lane. The tnarritiiro
ceremony was performed by Hey. G. W.
Crofts. Immediately after Us i-oncluslon Mr.
und Mrs. Lane escaped the congratulations of
tholr friends for the tlmo being by taking a
motor tralu for Ouiaha aud irolu ? direct to
the handsome llttlo homo that Mr Lane had :
provided nt 111 Twenty-sixth street. Omaha , '

THE BONDED WAUEUOUSE.
Its WorklnsH Fully Explained by Col
lector Ali'.Vniuler.
Collector Alexander Is greatly pleased over
the success that is in store for the bonded
wnrcbouso recently located Ih this city. Yes
terday ho said : "Its effort Is already beginning -
ginning to bd felt , and almost dally I am In
receipt of letters from Sioux City , la. , Lincoln -
coln , Plattsmouth , Nobroska City nnd ether
points in this state , asking when It will bo
re a ly to receive goods. Ills ready now , but
as the general public may not anderstand Us
workings , I will explain.
' Certain lines of goods may bo cheap In
London , Paris and other lorclgn markets.
The dealers hero at homo want to take ad
vantage of this and at once place their orders.
The shipments are mndo and the goods como
in bend to Omaha , consigned to mo as col
lector. My duty Is to sco that the Import
duties nro paid and the goods turned ever to
the consignee. But If the consignee for any
reason does not want to pay the duties ,
ho makes an arrangement with the
warehouseman and the goods are
stored , possibly for thirty days nnd
perhaps for six months. The Imports duties
attach to the gcods nnd need not ho paid
until they are taken out of the warehouse.
So you can sec that thu merchants will thus
bo enabled to take advantage of the fluctua
tions of tuo foreign market aud profit
thereby.
"In regard to the warehouseman , ho is ap
pointed at my suggestion , nnd while ho
Is not directly on oftlcial of the government ,
ho Is bonded to receive nnd care for all of the
goods in the house. Ho fixes his own
charges , hut should they bo oxhorbltant I
have authority to step in and regulate. It
hns been thougbt by some that ho
will have access to the storeroom , but
this is a mistake. When n car
comes in bond it cannot bo opened by any
other porjon than myself or one of my In
spectors. The goods nvo then put Into the
warehouse and checked by the storekeeper , a
government official , who carries the only key
to tlo | store room , the warehouse man having
only the key to the outer door of the build
ing. So you sco the goods are under United
Statei protection from tlio tlmo they are
bonded until received by the consignee. ! '
The prospect for n bonded warehouse for
the exclusive- of tno Omaha and Grant
smelting works Is another subject that Is re
ceiving considerable favorable comment
around customs headquarters. The otllcials
there believe that itwill bo located , and at an
early date. If this location should be made ,

rooms , commencing atS o'clock and continu
ing until midnight , when an adjournment
was taken until 2 p. in. today.

Kout by Klein & Spleglo nnd had represented
that ho had loaned Spelgel $1SO. This state
ment Spieglo denied point'blnnk. '
It was also stated by' Sntalo < b Klein that

There have been many seemingly perfect

vicinity of the Bols do Boulogne , in Paris ,
abounds ; n quiet , very elegant little place
where perfect cooking , perfect service , and
wellbrod freedom prevails , and goes to make
of a luncheon or elaborate dinner something
worth looking forward to In the best sense of
the term' Just such a place was last nlcht
thrown open for the llrst tlmo lu Omaha ,
with the members of the press as llrst guests.
The exqulsltenoss of the details form too
much of a delightful surprise to bo described
In print. Messrs. Nosslno and Henurd hnvo
prepared something In the restaurant line
that may bo returned to over and over with
Increasing instead of diminishing Interest.
The menu cards were the hand painting of
Mr. Ncssiuo , and a more clover display has
never been scon In the city. They were so
very novel in design as to make of them rare
souvenirs to the guests in attendance. The

Bishop Taylor Tells Why There Are
No Hoirgars in Alriun.
Ono African custom observed by
Biehop Taylor has not been mentioned
by other travelers , nnd shows the Hivvnyo
character in such a favorable light that
Ills disuriptlon of it will boar repetition
in his own words. Ho BIIV.S :
"I noticed that every vlllug-o had sot
.part a Hold for the use of strangers.
The chief wife of the tribal king culti-
atod this field und stored away the pro
duct in the upper half of her hut. No
man of the ti-ibo was pormltted to touch
of the food thus stored. The king's wife
hud her share of this and mntlo nor liv
ing out of it , but all over and above the
amount actually consumed must bo sot
apart and preserved.
"This Hold JB known as the 'stranger's
field.Vhcnovoru , stranger comes into
the village ho makes known his want to
the king and ho is immediately re
lieved. The best hut In the village is
set apart for him ; ho cats ol the food of
the strangers1 field and the best wife of
the king prepares the food with her own
hand. Ho remains a week or n month
or any reasonable length of time nnd his
departure is never hastened. Some
times ho tnrrios long enough to be
come a member- the tribe and ho mar
ries into tlio king's family.
"An amusing1 feature of this custom i
the fact that indigent members of the
tribe sometimes leave their village and
go to other villages and become strang
ers , so that very often when n familiar
face 1ms boon missed from n certain vil
lage and I liuvo asked wlioro So-and-So
wont and what became of him , some
one has gravely informed mo that So-
nnd-So mid grown poor and become a
btrangoi1. Subsequently I hnvo run
across hr/.y So-anQ-So in u distant vil
lage living on the fat of tlio land as a
stranger and being treated to royal hos
pitality. There nro no bop-gars in
Africa. When man or woman becomes
too poor to got along comfortably , hoer
or niio makes the circuit of adjacent vil
lages us a stranger. "
A Gritty Tramp.
Samuel Hussoll died at tlio city hospi
tal , says tlio St. Louis Post Dispatch.
The case is a reinarknblo ono , illustrat
ing as it does the dogged determination
of tlio American tramp. On the after
noon of January 1 Russell was picked up
by a police olllcer in the union depot ,
who found him sitting helpless on the
platform. The follow was taken to the
dispensary , where an examination
showed the horrible condition of his
foot. Both were literally covered with
ulcers. Russell said that throe months
ago ho made up Ills mind to como to St.
Louis. Ho was in Denver at tlio tlmo ,
and was. bnntorod by ono of ills com
panions to walk the entire distance.
The two started out together. The
ether man soon gave it up us a bad job ,
but Russell was gnmo and pushed on.
Ilia feet were half frozen a dozen times ,
and several opportunities were afforded
him along the route for light employ
ment for the entire winter. Ho hud ar
rived in St. Louis the day before ho was
found. At tlio city hospital tlio right
log was amputated nt thu Icnoo. Tlio
unfortunate follow was too weak to rally
and died. The hospital record gives bin
ngo as twenty-six years , single , and a
native of Michigan.
