The Council Meeting Monday.
When the gavel of the mayor rapped
for order it found all the city legislators
in their places with the single exception
of Vondron of the Fifth ward, who was
recently called to New Washington,
Ohio, by the death of his father, and
has not yet returned.
The minutes were approved without
change after being read. There being
no communications or petitions to come
before the body, the finance committee's
report had the right of way, and was
taken into consideration The only
recommendation they had to offer was
the payment of the bills of R. A. Bates
or $13.00, and John Waterman for
$17. 30, both of which were ordered paid.
The committee reported the auditing of
the books of the city treasurer, and re
ported them to be correct. Upon the
approval of the report the next order
of business was taken up.
Reports of chief of police and police
judge showed nothing done, and the
numbers were passed while the street
commissioner s report went to tne
streets, alleys, and bridges committee
and was later reported as being O. K.
When the reports were asked for
from the clerk, treasurer, board of
health, board of public works, and the
chief of the fire department, they filed
alonir without anvthine to say. The
judiciary committee wanted more time
to report on the water company's bill,
which was granted. The claims com
mittee reported that the claim for the
water company for damages for the
breaking of water boxes be not paid,
but recommended that the chief of
police be instructed to see that these
boxes were not broken when grading
is done in the future. The mayor read
a nice lecture to the careless grader,
regarding his wanton destruction of
property.
In regular order slipped by the license,
fire and water, cemetery, and gas and
light committees without a report.
Under the head of special committee,
H. D. Barr was given an opportunity
to explain why he had asked for ten
dollars for services for acting as police
judge, during the time when M. Archer
had been away some time since. Much
discussion was had regarding the mat
ter and it was given into the hands of
the police committee to report at the
next regular meeting when it will be
taken up for final adjudication.
Considerable time was spent in con
sidering a proper time for a meeting at
which the citizens should be invited to
meet with the council and discuss and
hear discussed the matter of lowering
the streets as a means of affording
protection from floods. The date was
finally decided upon as February 10,
date of the next regular meeting of the
council. A general invitation was ex
tended to all citizens to be present,
after which the council adjourned. .

APIattsmouth Doy is Happy
Over the Advent of a
Daby Doy at His
Home.
An incident occurred in Denver the
other day, which recalls what John
G. Whittier said some years ago,
about the barefoot boy:
"As he whistled merry tunes, with
his turned up pantaloons." So is
Thomas Janda, as he goes to work, one
would think from his merry whistling
and the rattle of his saw and hammer,
that he was a whole band himself and
all because "it is a boy," with the
mother and son both . doing well.
Thomas, yes, he is getting along all
right, thank you, and they all have
praise for the stork, too. And Grandpa
Cyril Janda is in no ways displeased at
the result. Now just notice that smile
when you meet him the next time.

The. Fight for Revenue Col
lector of Nebraska
Still Waxes
Warm
A special from Washington, has the
following to say in reference to the
fight between Senator Burkett and
Brown for the collectorship of Nebras
ka. Burkett favors Ross Hammondjof
Fremont, and Brown, when he was a
candidate for the senate, promised the
place to a Mr. Rose, of Lincoln, for
"efficient and faithful" service during
the campaign: It is no sure thing that
a successor to Elmer H. Stephenson
will be selected at the meeting of the
Nebraska delegation next Saturday. In
fact, the chances are in favor of no
action and all on account of the
development of the so-called "Iowa
plan" for the distribution of patronage
being fitted to the Nebraska situation.
Already there is a storm brewing, for
the report of the committee on the plan,
consisting of Senator Burkett, chairman;
Congressmen Norris and Boyd. These
gentlemen have had several meetings
and in the main have agreed to the pro
position which they will submit to the
delegation on Saturday for ratification,
but should the report contemplate that
the state be divided into districts, along
congressional lines, and really make the
patronage into sixths, there will be the
liveliest row Nebraska has seen in its
delegation in years. It is contended
by members of the delegation that the
patronage of the state has been divided
on north and south lines, the Platte
river being taken as the geographical
line, and to frame up a charter, for
that is what the agreement really
means, contemplating each congress
ional district as a unit, would creat
"confusion worse confounded," in the
opinion of those who are striving for a
a square deal.
Looking for an Heir.
The Lincoln Journal says that Charles
A. Love, of Aurora, Illinois, was in
that city Tuesday hunting for some in
formation concerning Ernest Kuhlman,
who equals twenty thousand dollors.
Kuhlman was a Chicago cigar maker
who drifted west, returned to Chicago
on a visit- about nine years ago and
then said he came from Lincoln. After
a short visit there he came west again.
Since then a nephew, named Schrader
has died willing his fortune of $100,
000 to the brothers and sisters of his
father and of his mother. Kuhlum
was a brother to Schrader's mother.
Mr. Love has found that a man named
Peter Kuhlman was sent to the asy
lum a few years ago, and that later
he left the asylum for a hospital. After
that trace of him have been lost. Mr.
Love believes from descriptions he has
secured that Peter Kuhlman may have
been the Ernest Kuhlman is about 55
years of age, if alive.
