Mayor Macrae , Aldermen Pace and Wood ,
City Attorney Stewart and Surveyor Tosto-
vin returned yesterday noon from Dos
Mnlncs , where they wont to attend a meet ,
ing of the ofllclnln of seme of the leading
cities of the stuto. Most of the time was
spent in dollberatlnc upon quo-uloiiK con
nected with municipal affairs , and n number
of Mops wcro tnlicn which will bo apt to
load to important legislation in the near
future. The question of allowing cities hav
ing a certain population to levy a tax of
5 mills or less for city lighting purposes was
brought up , but a resolution favoring it uos
defeated , owing to the decided stand taken
by the niufls delegation.
"In looking around , " said Mavor Macrae
In speaking of this question , " 1 iind that
Council Bluffs is in a much better condition
in every way than almost any otnor city in
the state. Many cities are heavily in debt
and would llko to have a way invented for
raising the necessary funds to carry on their
running expenses , Wo uro not troubled in
that wny , and so our delegation opposed the
plan with all our might , nnd induced the
Burling tor. and several other delegations to
look nt the thing in our way. "
This plan did not work , however , in con-
ildorlng tbo question of allowing cities to
levy n tax of 5 mills or less for flro pro
tection , for a resolution favoring it was
id opted.
On comparing notes tbo various mayors
found thut they Iind all had trouble in recon
ciling Iho ofllcei of marshal and chief of
police , there being considerable friction be
tween the incumbents. A resolution was
passed favoring the passage of a law uniting
the two onices in one and allowing the chief
of police to perform the duties of both , pro
vided bis appointment should bj loft in thu
bands of the mayor and not the people.
The Bluffs delegation speaK in hich terms

by the pcoplo of Dos Monies. On Wednesday
tvcnlng they were entertained at u banquet ,

Tbo pranci jury , which has boon In session
for over four weeks , in ail o Its second nnd last
report yesorday morning nnd wns dis
charged. The session lias been tbo longest
held In this county for years , the cnuso of
tlio length being thu vast amount of business
connected with the Klmball-Champ cases ,
Plvo tudlctmcnts were returned against each
ot the two men , four being for larceny nnd
ono for embezzlement. The warrants wcro
served on them at the ofllco of their at
torneys , Ilurhe & Casnay , and ball was at
once secured , their bond being llxed at $10-
500 and signed by . ) , F. Kimball , Georjro II.
Champ , D. Currlgg , J. J. Shea , U. 13. II.
Campbell , and James Soguln.
In the various InalutiuonU they nro charged
with embezzling t. > 00 belonging to Gcorgo
Olcott of Charlcstown , N. H. , and the lar
ceny of & .8&1.33 from D. W. Archer , of the
Kcono Five-cent Savings bank ; 11,153 from
the Littleton , ( N. II. ) , National bunk ; * S39
from J. C. Teller ol Denver , and (143,000
from tbo Klmball-Ctimnp Itivcittnent com
pany.
Tbo defendants claim , with reference to
the charoo of embezzlement , that the $500
had been fully paid back to Its rightful
owner before the case was submitted to the
unmet jury , aud that they hold a receipt , for
the amount. In regard to the Archer claim
and tbo claims of the two bunks , they stata
'hat thu shortage Is fully covered In the trust
'eccl to the Manhattan and other Individual
iruperty which they executed on the day
hey niado their assignment , mid that the
imoucls ( -.aimed to have been stolen repro-
ontcd inonoy that was In tbo bauds of the
nvostmcnt company standing as credits on
ho books , but not remitted to its owners.
In connection with tbo case , Attorney Piney -
oy I3urko , who represents the defendants ,
poke as follows :
1 It is evident from tno indlctmcntrcturncd
hat the complaints used before- the grand
urv are not of alleged wrongs to our own
icoplo , but alleged wrongs to oasiorn capi-
allsts. Tbo acts uro acts of the investment
: ompany , which , In the nature of things ,
must , have been known to the other ofllcors
ind employes of tie ! company. In ono case ,
hat of Teller , the court has already passed
in fttbo case bv making an order on the re
ceiver of the Kimball-Champ Investment
company to pay the amount out of the assets
if tbo company. Tbo chief chargu purports
.o bo made on behalf of tbo eastern stock
holders , but wo claim that the stockholders
nave not authorized such use of their names ,
nnd It Is known that Messrs. Kimball
.V Champ put in tbo bands of
Mr. Milton Jackson , an honorable man rep
resenting holders of Js',1,000 worth of invest
ment company stock , for their use and can-
colort JJCi.OOO so that the effect is to reduce
the stock $124,000.Vo nlio claim that this
overdraft is greatly exaggerated and that
Ihero is nothing criminal in it , but a more
matter of the dTerence ! ( of opinion as to the
advisability of building a hotel in Council
"Huffs mid that If a mistake it has been more
.ban provided against by tbo deeds to the
company and transfer and cancellation nf
stock. The company h d a capital of $300-
DOO. If Kimball & Champ surrendered
and canceled $121,000 , this reduced the stock
by that amount so as to make it a company
of $17li.OOO , and this covers uny impairment
of the balance of stock. "
In addition to the nbovo indictments were
returned as follows : E. G. Tobin , who stole
? 17 from the pocket of J. Y. Hendricus of
Shenandoah at the Kiel house , larceny in a
building ; William Cms , who stele $33.50 be-
'onqlng to Mrs. Annn Pralor , larceny ; E. U.

began his stage work in this city. Ho is the
son of Mrs. Colonul William Irving Dodge ,
whoso hubband was second in command at
Fort Omaha nearly twenty years ago.
Mr. Pnuldlng has brought to his profes
sional career the enthusiasm of a passionate
love , nnd now , at tlio curly ago of 3. ) , ho can
see the promise of a brilliant aud famous
future. Ho has for years boon recognized us
onn of the best leading men in support of
famous stars , and is regarded us one of the
likeliest of young American actors. Ho has
already sot Ills man : hii-h in tragedy , and his
friends predict that ho will bo tbo preat
Booth's successor. He is llxod by that high
ambition , and brings to its achievement the
application of a student and exceptional abili
ties that are already wnll developed.
Mr , Puuldicg was supoiintending the setting

heart was so wrapped up in thu success of

order to glvo tbo public a perfect portorm-

"Ves , I am in a sense an Omaha boy , " he
said In response to un inquiry , "and some of
tlio happiest days of my boyhood were spent
in this city. Uut what a magical chimgo bus

for the stage from childhood. In New York
I cultivated the friendship of the keeper of
the stage door at Wulluck's old theater , and
spent many u recess during school Jays in
wandering about the enchanted place.
"After leaving Omaha 1 visited Europe ,
and for live months had free access to Mr.
Henry Irviug's theater in London. I took no
pait in the performances , but made a study
of staga craft and received many useful
hints from Mr. Irving. On returning to
America I again took up amateur theatricals ,
and decided to gouixm tbo stago.
"My professional debut was made in 'The
Fool's Hovonge , ' In Ib7l ) . The enthusiasm
of youth led to overwork resulting in spinal
meningitis and partial paralysis. The physi
cians commanded mo to abandon the stage
for at least tlvo years , but a year or two later
my mo.her'a fortune was swept away. She
bad given power of attorney to an agoni.who
dUslpated her means In ( peculation. There

of them were caught in the trap of the Law

efforts since the late state election. The
llrjuor men were confident that the prohibi
tory law would bo promptly . 'opouled by the
legislature , nnd two months ago thov readily
entered into stipulations with the Law and
Order league that if the prohibitory law was
not repealed by the Loplslaturo by February
1 they would appear in the district court nnd
plonci guilty to the charge of contempt of
court , which carries with it the closing of
their places with line and possible imprison
ment. If the law should bo repealed they
still agreed to pay costs of the proceedings
that bad been begun against ttiom. The
agreement at least gave tbem two months of
treedom. Dut now the time has expired , and
the Law and Order league Is enforcing the
agreement to the letter. The saloon men are
forced to close or go to Jml , and in addition
suffer confiscation of all HxturiH , etc. Many

Many a life has been lost
because of the taste of cod-
liver oil.
If Scott's Emulsion did
nothing more than take that
taste away , it would save the
lives of some at least of those
that put off too long the
means of recovery.
It does more. It is half-
digested already. It slips
through the stomach as if by
stealth. It goes to make
strength when cod-liver oil
would be a burden.
