THE DAILY 11EKALD : TiSfliou Tn, wiSiJKASK A, MONDAY, DECEMBER 17. 1S88. Tne Evening Herald. OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY. A. Kalifthary. Deatlut, IZorkwooil ItuiliHnff, Trlrpkoae Dr. Slsvlao.

Judge Field, of Lincoln, presiding. The V. J. S. C. E. will meet at 7 p. in. this evening, instead of 7:20 as for merly. The funeral of Grace Hart, the little girl who died of diphtheria last Friday night, occurred yesterday afternoon. There was quite a large attendance. One more case of diphtheria was re ported here today, the vicitm being a Mr. Green who resides on Seventh street, Wtwcen I Vail and Granite. His age is thirty years. The city council may meet tonight. Several of the members have lieen on the nick li.st fir some time, which has occas ioned the scarcity of councillors at the regular meetings. Messrs. S. Waugh and D. A. Camp bell, who took in the excursion to Ala bama a couple of weeks ago, are expected home temorrow, according to a recent letter received from Mr. Waugh. The ladies aid society of the M. E. church will meet at the home of Mrs. W. li. Alexander, corner Sixth and Marble streets, Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. A good attendance is desired. The following cases were assigned to the district court. For Monday: Covcrdale vs. Ilurhydt and Patt"n vs. Eikcnbary. For Tuesday: T. B. Gordon vs. Polk & Co veil and T. B. Goldon vs. J. S. 3Iatbews. The school board has decided to keep the schools closed until after holidays. Although diphtheria is kept under con trol pretty well anil it is much on the decline, it is not considered safe to open the schools yet. Pete Riley and Rudwlph Sanson, the two boys who were arrested and jailed last Saturday morning for stealing a box of tobacco from the B. & M. depot, were tried before Judge Russell this morning. Each boy was fined $1 and costs, amount ing to f 3 in all for each. The fines were paid. The finest display in the line of New Year cards yet received in this city, can be seen at this office. We trust that the young men who intend returning the calls made by their young lady friends last year will select their cards early and allow U3 time for printing them. Samples can be seen at this office and orders taken any time between now and New Year. A team belonging to Mr. George Poisall, which was being worked this morning in filling up a ditch at the rear of Peterson's butcher shop, was driven too near the edge and allowed to fall in. The horses pulled in a scraper which was attached to them. Great difficulty was experienced in saving the horses,but through tne strenuous efforts of several bystanders, they were extricated without receiving much injury. Mr. Eugene Foote and wife, of whom the Omaha Herald spoke yesterday as narrowly escaping death last Friday night, being chloroformed by a burglar who entered tbej house of Mrs. Huff, Omaha, where they were visiting, passed through the city this morning by the K. C. Mr. Foote is an engineer and is said to be the "luckiest unlucky man that bas ever rode an engine." Seven times he has had the side rods on his engines broken and as many times faced death. We have as yet failed to see any manifestation brought about by a pcti tion which was circulated through the city several weeks ago, numerously signed, praying the city council to fill up the cess pools which can be found open along the public highway. At first we -were under the impression that such a re quest would surely move the council and prompt them to a sense of their duty. Those ditches to which we make reference contain enough filth to poison the atmos phere for a mile or more and contain germs of the most deadly diseases, such us diphtheria, (which is now raging in our midst) thyphoid fever and others which are liable to break out should this matter not receive the prompt attention of the authorities. The refuse from the canning factories, gas factory, and of the city, has been dumped into this stagnant water, which will, in the spring, throw out a deadly stench. The medical fra ternity will sanction the statement that diphtheria arises from nothing more than filth and bail drainage, and that unless those boles are filled up and the a'mos phere made pure once more, it will be almost i Hi possible to check this deadly rpidemic now upon us. As the city fathers meet this evening thi mattei Humid bs taken in hand and effective work Immediately done. It is the re piest of iiuof tJh'zens. and for the safety 4.A fell, tlte prayer tLul4 bo heeded. r.ervmlxrr V SET -So pieces t ;m, PERSONALS. Mr. Fred Engel, of Omaha, is in the city.

A. sleeps in a room with his brother Charles at their home in the western part of the city, and when he left the store of Mr. Carruth quite late and went home, he wci.t immediately to his room and noticing a form in bed which he supposed to be his brother, he quietly undressed and crept into bed. When he awoke the following morning he found himself done r.nd wondered why his brother had quietly stolen away. Charles returned home in the morning about nine o'clock and tb i fir.t salute was: "Where did you "go this morning after stealing away e quietly?' They were all startled to learn that he had lodged at the Riddle house the night before, and his younger brother was then scared when he remem bered that he had slept with some one, he knew not who. At first, they supposed a burglar had occupied the same bed.but no v;vl tables were discovered missing, and tLe-y are all wondering and suspect ing everything.

The main at tractions of the company were North Britain Pan Pipe Singers, the man with many voices and the beautiful scenery, which could not be excelled. Mr.'IIarry Gilfoil, the man with many voices, was a very amusing feature and he was called back a dozen times or. more., the sing ing which was introduced during the play, was very sweet and apoarently thoroughly enioyed by the entire aud.'ence. Pat Muldoon's Irish Comedy Com pany played to a very larjje audience at tue opera nouse last night, ana gave en tire satisfaction.
