SUBLIME NERVE OF A SAFE CRACKER ,
He TnckloM n Jolt During tlio
of tliu Itlnro In ProMMH.'e of an
Ainn/.ctl Throns I'Mre-
men Hunt ,
An alarm of flro was sounded yesterday
morning nt about UsM o'clock ' , calling the llro
dcpattmcnt to the corner of Broadway and
.Tenth strcots , whcro the livery stable be
longing to William Lewis was on lire. When
the alarm eamo In tha members of the llro
department wcro out with their apparatus
for their usual morning airing. The team
which Is used for the heavy truck was
bitched to u light wagon , the truck having
been left at the Is'orth Main street engine
house. It was several minutes before the
men from that bouse could got back to head *
quarters and tn.iku the changes necessary ,
ami in fact , the men from all the houses were
somewhat delayed by being .way from their
quarters.
When the hose was picked up and the flic-
men started for home , a black and smoking
ruin was till that was lelt.
The origin of the Ilio is a mystery. It
stalled In the rear end , and Is lupposeu to bo
the work of an incendiary. Ofllccr ICoiup ,
who patrols Lower Iroadway , stated that
the llrst thing ho saw of the lire was when
the building was all ablaze.
There were ubout a do/en horses and four
buggies in the stable , and these were all got
ten out undamaged A largo cai rlacc v.ilued
at ftUKI , tlio only'vehicle in the outrtt that was
uninsured , could not bo gotten out on account
of tlio rapidly advancing llaines and was
totally destroyed. The building itself was
valued ut fj.iioo and there was fcl.oUO insur
ance on it.
Clunk's Sanderson , one of the men at the
Upper Broadway house , was dumped from
the truck as It passed over u rough place in
the road , and was nin over by the huge ma
chine. Two of the other men fell oil at the
same tlmn , but they escaped injury. Sander
son struck on his head , and a horrible gash
was eut In his scalp. He was carried Into
the Metropolitan hotel. Dr. A. P. Hachott
was summoned , and he found that the in
juries were not seiious. He took four
stitches In the scalp , after which the ilreman
rushed out to tight the tlaincs as though
nothing had happened.
lioimruT vonic.
Ono of the boldest things In the way of n
daylight robbcrv that has over been com
mitted in Council Bluffs took place duiIng
tlio progress of the lire. When Sanderson ,
the Injuiod lilt-man , was cariied Into the
Metropolitan hotel Co. * treatment , ho was fel-
lowed out into the dining ruom by u croud of
curiosity seoKcrs. Those who had not been
attracted to thoslilowiilk in fiontof the hotel
by thu tire had been drawn Into the dining
loom to see the Inlnred fireman The ofllco
was consequently luft enttrolj empty for n
few minutes.
John Bates , a ilteman from the South
Main stieet lioso house , happened to enter
the olllce suddenly and there ho found a man
nt work trying to opun tlio safe with a hugo
chisel , llo stepped up noiselessly behind the
industrious mechanic , and had him by the
nape of the neck before bo knew that anyone
was on this side of Jerusalem. The safebreaker -
breaker nt oncu beg.tn to tight. Ho lifted his
chisel and struck the liroman abounding
blow with his chisel , uut It was of no avail.
Bates was soon ie-enfotccd , the lobber was
given a knock on the head , and thu police
wem notified. Captain 13. L. Martin was
soon on thu Held , \vttli the patrol wagon , and
thu thief was given n ride at the
city's expense. As ho was starting ho gave
n vicious kick at Bates , accompanied bv u no
less vicious curse. The Kick and the curse ,
however , alike fell short of the mark and
Bates went bads to bis work In bis usu-il
sticiiL'tb. At the police station the safebreaker -
breaker gave his name as John Hill , Ho
madu no bones of the matter , but on the con-
tiary bo evidently felt that ho was deserving
-'isldcrablo ( credit from the fact that ho
hnu "lowed gull enough to tackle a man's
safe in baord daylight , with n crowd
of people within easy balling distance
of him. On his person wcro found two
other chisels besides the one which he had
been using when detected. All three of them
had evidently been designed mulnly lor the
use of tha piofcssion , and Hill is probablv a
dangerous crook. Ho is confined in the city
Jail , and two informations have been
sworn out against him in Justice
Hammer's court , ono charging him
with having burglars' tools in
tils possession and the other with attempting
to break Into an ofllcc. Thu informations
were Illod by A. P. Langtnado , the propiio-
tor of thu hotel.
Before the robbery was detected Hill bad
broken open the money drawer and had taken
out nil the contents , which amounted to
about W. Ho was about to tear open the
cash drawer In the safe when ho was cap
tured. Ho will liavo a hearing this after
noon butoro Justieu Hummer.

A Dlino Novel Victim.
John Colwoll , a young man of fourteen
winters , started out from his homo In Harlan
yesterday to see the world. Ho struck Coun
cil Bluffs among his llrst engagements. Ho
was mounted. upon the back of a spirited
four-year-old mare and ho presented a vary
gay picture. Ho bad found that If ho was
going to kill wild Indians ho would hnvo to
go furthcrjwest than ho had supposed , nndns
no WRS out of money ho rando up his mind
that the best thing for him to do would bo to
sell his horse to ralso money to carry him on
to his destination. He strucK several parties
on Broadway with n view to selling his
steed , but was unable to find n purchaser.
The last man ho struck was MarshalTem-
plcton. and then ho stopped. The niaishnl
tools him under his wing and brought him to
the stntlor , whcro ho asked him to give an
nccouut of himself. At flrst ho would not
talk , but finally ho let out bis
whole story. Ho said the horses belonged to
his father , but ho did not think there was
any harm In running away with It , because
it was his father's , nnd what was his father's
was his , anyway. The sheriff of Hnrlan was
notified bv telephone of the capture nna bo
sent word that the father of the boy would
be In the Tilulls today to tnko him back homo.

A young girl , about fourteen years of ago ,
Dallied in a torrent of tears ; n man with h Is
hair slightly tinged with gray and his faeo
hidden behind n look of vehement dUsatis-
faction , nnd Ofllcer Boswlck , with a sort of
got-thero-ttmt-timu look on his features. Tlmt
was the scene that was witnessed yesterday
forenoon on the s'reot between the Milwau
kee depot and the police headquarters.
Chief Cnmy leceivcd a telegram on
Wednesday from the chief of police of Merrill -
rill , WK , Joseph Downlo by namo. The
telegram stated that a couple had eloped ,
and the fugitives were then on their way
westward , over the Milwaukee , so tb.it they
might bo reasonably expected to arrive In
Council BlutTs yesterday morning. The
natnu of the girl was given us Sevoriiia Nor-
caard , nnd that of the man as George Vlc-
Clellan. Accordingly Ofllcor Beswlck met
the train and assisted thu couple In finding
accommodations in the city.
MtfClolhtn was put Into thu city Jail with a
charge of being n fugitive from Justice placed
against him. The girl was taken to the olllco
of the chief of police , where she was asked n
number of questions with n view to finding
out the facts In the caso.
She stated that McClellan bad been workIng -
Ing for her father , A. J. Norgaard , who lives
nt Blonnvlllo , Wls. , for several months
past , and that during that time his fascina
tions had proved too strong for her to rosht.
Shu succumbed to Cupid's wiles , and to all
appearances ho did the same. Ho induced
her to run away from him , and promised that
\vhentheygottoColoradobo would marry
her. Tno idea of seeing the country was too
much for her and she agreed to go. She
stated that he hail conducted Himself with
the utmost propriety nil during
their Journed , and that she was
very anxious to bo allowed to
resume her Journnv. in order that they might
go to Colorado and get married. She nnd her
Homco left the girl's homo on Tuesday nnd
drove twelve miles to Morrlll , where they
took thu Milwaukee train.
McClellan is a man of about thlrty-Hvo
years of ago and to all appearances Is any
thing but ono who would entice a girl of
fourteen nwny ftom her homo with any sinis
ter designs in viow. H Is apparently "a case
of love , and it will not bo allowed to run
smooth , as nn ofllccr will bo hero eitbur today
or tomorrow to tnko the runaways back homo
she to got some paiontal advice , and ho to
stand n trial on the charge of kidnapping.

Mr. Davis asked how the Council could re
consider those uppointrjonts after they had
qualified. He believed Hint the only way to
get Mr. Morrlssey and _ tr ) Gapcn out of
ofllco was to piofer charges against thorn.
Mr. Bcchcl said that these oftleer's bonds
had not yet boon approved by the council ,
nnd until that time the coumjil had a right to
reconsider anv action previously taken.
President Lowry hold ( hqt Mr. IJ 'choVs
point was well taKoi and' tbo motli in to re
consider were lu oVdor. ' ° Mr. Do molly's
motion Was carried , ' ' "
OniLoUonof Mr Specnt'tho appointment
of city i bysician and sanitary co nmlssloner
was referred to tbo com nltteo on police.
Couniilmen Cooper , Conway , O hoT a-id
Davis cast the only ueratlvo votes upon the
motions to reccn i or Iho two appointment ) .
Both Dr. Gapcn and Mr. Morrissey were
present and seemed surprised at the action of
the council.
The council then went into committee of
the whole to consider the garbage ordinance.
The word license was knocked out in every
instance and the word permit was in
serted , where the wording referred to the
granting of privileges to garbage haulers.
All garbage haulers will have to pay 8100
per annum and furnish n satisfactory bond
for $1,000 signed by responsible citl/ons. The
ordiuunco provides that no garbage hauler
shall charge more than 10 cents per cubic
foot for cleaning cesspools , vaults , etc. Tbo
hours during which such garbage gathcrlni
shall bo done shall bo regulated by the bean
of health.
OAH persons violating the provisions of the
ordinance shall be guilty of a misdemeanor ,
and garbage gatherers who violate the ordi
nance shall be fined $50 ,
The leading of this ordinance called
out a good deal of reminiscent discussion
with regard to the abuses that the people had
undergone at the hands of garbage gatherers ,
particularly the Insolence and extortions of
osspool and privy vault cleaneis.
The committee then arose and reported to
the council to the effect that the garbage or
dinance had been considered and the commit
tee would recommend that the clerk be in
structed to engross the ordinance nnd report
It to the council next Saturdav night.
The report was adopted and the council ad
Journed.
