COUNCIL.
A VKIIV LIVELY SESSION OK THAT 1IODY.
Friday night was certainly a Held
night for our mayor. There seems to
bo a certain amount of magnetism
about Mr. Vaughan , that when ho
rises to make a speech the entire
council pays every attention. It maybe
bo on account of the man ; it may bo
on account of the position ho holds.
At any rate , there is a charm that the
city fathers at times cannot resist.
But then there was a very good reason
on Friday evening why Messrs.
Gavin , Dawson , Fonda and Phillips
should remain quiet when the mayor
presented to the council the following
communication :
"I return to you an ordinance to
lower the grade of BlulT and 1'iorco
streets , passed by your honorable
body August 0 , 1881 , unsigned by mo
for the following reasons : First
Our city engineer informed you the
night of passing said ordinance that
ho did not like to draw it no hastily ,
as his figures might bo incorrect.
Second The council had by motion
ordered a committee of three citizens ,
appointed with a view of settlement
and I had appointed Messrs.
Thomas Officer , J.V. . ulmpman and
II . II. Field as said committee. As
yet wo have received no report from
the committee , nor has it been din
charged , and by passing said ordinanci
before a report was received an unin
tentional insult was ollurcd said com
mittee. Third Private rights will bt
greatly injured , and n lawsuit wil
surely follow. Fourth I have boot
roriuestod by four aldermen to with
hold my signature , as the followin
will show :
Ho.v. W. 11. VAUOHAK , Mayor-
Dear Sir : Wo fool that the ordinanc
passed by us at our last mooting in re
gard to Bluff street grade was don <
hastily , and wo do most respectfully
ask you to withhold your name from
said ordinance until our next mooting ,
as wo are confident that the trouble
can bo settled , T. E. Gavin , H. Dau *
son , E. 11. Fonda , N 0. Phillips.
I hopes that you may legislate wisely
and with great discretion in this mat
tcr , as private rights must bo pro
tectcd. W. II VAUHHAK , Mayor. "
The next important part the mayo :
took itrtho council mooting was i
speech delivered in a bold , statesman
bko manner , arraigning before tin
city council our worthy chief of polio
H. H. Field , for appointing , with tin
consent of his honor , two extra police
men on the occasion of tha firemen'
picnic out at Yonkorman's. Such
chastisement wo doubt was over bofor
given in a public assembly by th
mayor of a city to its chief of police
Mr. Vaughan charged that the chic
Imd usurped his functions and thosi
of the city council ; that without au
thorityho had pardoned criminals an
remitted their lines ; that a mob migh
have taken possession of Vonkorman' ;
garden , and that the two mon sen
there to quell any disturbance on tha
occasion , had they interfered , wouh
have rendered the city liable for dam
ages. ( Wo hardly agreed with th
mayor. ) A listener would have sup
posed that the city had certainly cs
caped a dire calamity from the fac
that these two policemen sent b ;
Chief Field without Mr. Vaughan' ' !
consent had found no man out at
Yonkorman'a drunk enough to make
a disturbance. Mr. Field stood the
arraignment without a flinch , and
then in a very quiet and gentlemanly
manner stopped forward nnd niado a
manly explanation. lie stated that
on the occasion of the firemens1 pio-
nio some ono at the garden applied to
him to send two policemen for ser
vice on the grounds , At the limo
what force ho had at hia command
was scattered over the city , and ho
didn't see howjio could spare them.
However , ho said ho would speak to
the mayor and have two extra ones
appointed. Ho saw a couple of mon
and asked them to go and BOO Mr.
Vaughan and report to him for duty.
They returned and said they had boon
bworn in and wanted a star
to put on their coats. The
chief , not having any spare
ones , kindly loaned ono ot the men
his and borrowed ono of Oflicor Ster
ling for thd other , nnd the two wont
to their duty at the beer garden , lie
did not know but that Iho mon had I
boon duly qualified. Ho said that if
ho had done a wrong he was before
the council ready to answer to them >
for that wrong. If any member of
the city council thought he had in
tentionally usurped their powers , ho
there and then presented himself for
their vote of censure. The lecture
from the mayor was wholly uncalled
for. What ho did was done in the
interest of the people of Council
Bluffs , and to them also ho wac ready
to make answer. Mr , Fiold.s re i-
marks were listened to with * marked
attention , and at the conclusion all
was stiH. Not a motion was mudo ; it
passed before the council like e , dream.
They were tired. Mr. Holmes , city
attorney , arose to deliver his opin
ion of the mayor and city council
on the street-car ordinance. Ho
wanted them to undurstund that ho
was legally qualified to instruct them ;
that ho did not want to spend so much
time in giving them advice that they
did not heed , or drawing ordinances
that would not "draw , " He did not
understand why there was not aomc
action taken on the street-car ordi
nance , or the ordinance abandoned
altogether , Night after night it wai
brought before the council and re
ferred to some committee. So far us
ho was concerned , lie was ready to de
his duty. Ho wanted them to under
stand once for nil , wlnlo ho was on his
feet , that they could not grant the ex
clusive right to any company to occu
py the streets for railroad purposes )
that any company could organize
under tlio railroad act and use our
streets so long an they paid damages.
( \Vo recommend that this law be
amended nt the next session of the
general assembly. ; All of this talk
was winked at by Alderman Phillips.
The following communication was
handed to the clerk by the mayor to
bo read :
You are respectfully invited to
unite with the board of education in
the dedication of the Bloomer school
building , Friday evening , 2(5th ( hist ,
Respectfully , L. F. MtmntY ,
President Board of Education.
It xvas voted unanimously to ac
cept the invitation. A petition was
then presented signed by James
Browstcr and sixty other leading
citizens , asking that the present spe
cial charter be abandoned , and that
application bo made to the next general -
oral assembly to bo incorporated as a
city ot first class under the general
state law.Vhon this is done nil the
oflictrs of the city ill bo elected by
the people instead of being appointed
by the mayor nnd council.
The council voted to give $500
more to help out the driving park as
sociation , in order that teams fr m
Omaha can have a more accessible
route to the fair grounds.
Ex-Alderman Graham stated to the
council that John T. Baldwin
and himself , as a committee
appointed by the board of trade , had
visited Omaha in the interest of the
Council Bluffs loveo. They found the
U. P. ofllcialH were anxious that every
preliminary stop bo nt once taken , so
that work could commence in a very
short time ; that that company had
had ono survey made by their en
gineer , but were not satisfied , and on
Friday they had made a second sur
vey , which they thought would be ac
cepted. Mr. Graham thinks the rail
roads are all rnady to join Council
Bluffs in the grand upheaving of the
bottoms to prevent any further de
struction by spring floods , and that
work will bo commenced in a very
short time.
Mayor Vaughan then presented the
following :
It'haa como to my notice that our
licensed hacks and express wagons
had been forbidden by the U. I' , au
thorities to call for passengers and
baggage at the U. I * , depot , and as
the Wabash express and U. P. trains
have no other depots in our ctty , 1
felt it my duty to fully investigate the
matter. So'l wrote to lion. Thomas
L. Kimball , assistant general manager <
gor of the U. P. It. H. , and was glad
to receive his reply as follows :
Uon. W. 11. VAWOIIAV , Mayor ,
Council Bluffs , Iowa Dear Sir : Youi
favor of the 17 Hi with enclosures , is
received , and is the first notice I have
had of the matter in question. We
will have it investigated and sot arigh
without delay.
TIIOH. L. KIM DA i.i , ,
Assistant General Manager.
It will bo seen that in the future
our city hacks and wagons will bo al
lowed to call for and deliver passcn
gcrs and baggage on the U. P. ground
at its union depot in this city.
W. II. VAUOHAN , Mayor.
The following additional matters
wcro disposed of :
The committee to whom was referred
ferrod the ordinance regulating the
street car line , asked for further time ,
which was granted. '
The conumtteo appointed to oxnm
ino into the matter of the Bhooting
gallery on Fifth street reported ad
yorscly to the petition asking to close
it up.
A resolution ordering the payment
of § 4,500 for the purchase of the now
steam fire engine was offered and
adopted.
lloso lutions were passed ordorin
the repairing of several streets and
crossings
A lump post was ordered at
corner of High street and Graham
avenue.
Sidewalks were ordered built or

An ordinance prohibiting the hitch
ing or feeding of any horses , mules o :
other animals on Fourth street , froi
Broadway to Ninth avenue , and 01
Fifth and Pearl streets from Broad
way to the same avenue , was reported. .
As the law prohibits tlio same thin ]
on Broadway , men who bring produci
to the Council Blufis market will hav
to como to town early enough to return
turn before noon , or move their sla
bios on seine other streets. Judgi
James' yard would bo a good place ,
There is plenty of room. It is shady

WILD ADVENTURE.
WHICH Mil. I'AHKS HAD WITH A
CHICHnN-fiTEALlNQ COON.
Wo understand that , on complaint
of the "local" of the Nonpariol , Goo.
Parks , who is proprietor of what is
known as Parks' mill , was arrested [ ,
charged with shooting a coon which was
making away with Homo of his young
chickens. Mr. Parks is naturally ox-
citablo , and it don't take much to got
his mad up ; so , to have a coon delib
erately enter his barn-yard , go to the
coop and remove chickens just to sat
isfy his appetite , was more than Mr.
Parka cculd stand , This the coon had
iboon doinjvfor several night. Mrs.
Parka had called Mr. Parks' attention
to it for several nights , and last Sat
urday evening Parks know that the
coon would anticipate his going up to
Harkness , Orcutt & Co.'s store to see
what Foropaugli had to exhibit , nnd
would certainly take advantage of the
cltanco for his chicken feast. Parka
was too sharp for Mr. Coon. Iio
let the women go to the circus tuul
ho remained at homo. About 10
o'clock ho hoard foot-falls as if a coon
was out on the warpth , lie took
his shot gun and repaired to the rear
of the house , where ho could hear and
see and not himself bu scon , Ho was
not mistaken , Mr. Parks leveled the
deadly weapon. Ho waited with bated
breath until ho thought ho was within
about a ' 'roost" of his prey , when ho
fiiod and the coon r VYo under-
stand that Mr. Parks was completely
exonerated from all blame in the
premises nnd was discharged without
even going up to the city building.
AT THE PARK-
HOW TIIR KACK.4 T1IKIIK IKIlMINATEti.
A laigo crowd gathered nt the park
grounds Saturday , and all seemed
plcasodJIand expressed themselves de
lighted .with their location. Ono
gentleman from Now York said that
it looked to him almost as largo as
Central park , and with a very small
outlay the grounds could bo made
very attractive. Ho told TUB BEE
reporter that ho did not believe there
was a track in the United States that
can bo made faster. Ho believed
that after a year or two. wjth proper
care , by being harrowed with a track
harrow after being sprinkled , that
Maud S. could make 2:00i. :
and that Vandcrbill would
certainly bring her hero at
some future time. The best trotter
thus far is Little Sioux. She won the
2UO : class race in 2:38 : , easily distanc
ing Billy Bashaw and Clarence H. ,
with Billy Bashaw second in the first
heat and Clarence H second in the
second boat. In the free-for-all race
Mailiu Graham and Sciola were enter
ed. Thcso horses appeared to bo
pretty evenly matched , keeping to
gether at the start , but Matlio broke
a little at the one-half mile stake , lot-
ling Sciola spurt a little ahead. When
they reached the wire they were near
ly ncqlc and neck , but as Mr. Sciola's
nose was a little longer than Miss
Mattie's , the judges declared Sciola
the winner. Time , 2:2M. : BellFlower
Flower , Razor Blade and a horse called
Tobc , wcro entered for the running
race , one-half mile dash. The
horses got a good start and all did
well. But Bell got ahead and kept it
easily winning the race , with
Tobo second. Col. D. B. Daily ,
Alderman Nato Phillips , N.
L. Hall , and Will Dawson , entered
horses for the gentlemen's roadster
raco. At this juncture a little t > quall
struck the judges' stand. It seems
that Maso Wise by some means got in
a hone that had made a record of
some kind , which was against the
rules of the raco. A few words wore
exchanged , when it was finally de
cided to let Maae Wise take a hand in
the race. All of the horses , after
scoring several times , went under the
wire in good shape for the first heat.
Nato Phillips held Maso Wise pretty
closely , nnd would have beaten him
if he nad had a lighter rig. Col.
Daily dropped some distance behinc
and remained thcro until Mase Wise
won the heat , with Nato Phillips sec
ond. The second heat would have
been won by Nato Phillips had they
succeeded in counting Maso Wise out-

Tlio Nonpariol had a long article
Sunday morning on the stereopticon
exhibition given on Saturday evening
by Prof. Abt , and no wonder , for tha
professor had ft view that ho carries
with him with this inscription : "Tho
Nonpareil in the best paper in the
west. " Well , of course wo think * so ,
and are pleased that our con temporary
has secured the services of Adam
ForojKiugh , The exhibition was cer
tainly very fine , and wo don't think
it ; v > as over excelled by any circus
traveling. Even Barnuin himself is
nutcWe in tliis rogtinl. The views of
Wnsifiigtuu crossing the Dolawuro anil
the burning of a Ship at sea were
especially striking , as also Washiug-
ton's dream of America' future , and
'
'for a rcaTcnto arrangement wo com

A ruiMi : NECESSITV ,
The man who keeps the shooting
gallery should give bonds to the city
i case of accident , if the story is true
mt a citizen on pausing in the alley
as shot in the log , as the aforesaid
listen claims in his letter to the Non-
aricl. The bullets with which the
ims are charged would kill a man
cry hastily if they hit him in the
ght placo. Thcro should certainly
o something in the back of the gal-
ry behind the mark that thcso balls
ill not penetrate , or elao the people
ad better keep from under , for there

moment when ho begun again to qual

him. Ho took in the situation at
once and took the first conveyance
for Vine street , whore ho lives. Ho
wont into the house and barricaded
the door , and , taking a tomahawk ,
threatened the first son of a star
with instant death that dared to
cross the threshold of his castle. The
officers wont in just the same , ar
rested the big darkoy and took him to
the calaboose. His wife followed ,
screaming at the top of her voice for
them to release her husband , saying
that ho was a respectable citizen when
compared with hundreds of nasty ,
dirty white men who are on the streets
every , Sundays included. On enter
ing the calaboose she made for the
iron door and defended her husband's
liberties with all her Mexican mad
ness. She called loudly for a revolver
that Htm might end her existence.
She was finally restored to seriousness
on the chief of police promising her
that ho would release her husband as
soo.i us jiossiblo after ho got cooled on"

Coroner Faul , who resides on Ban
croft street , has a fine lot of bees , and
when wo know that about every ono
n Pottawattamio county lost all of
; heir bees lost winter , it is quito a
treat to sco a lot that managed to pull
through. Mr. Faul informs us that
every boo that perished last winter
perished for want of proper care ; that
there was np need of anyone who
Imd bees losing a single hive. Ho
says the trouble came in not keeping
the mouth of the hive free ; that those
who lost their bees allowed the en
trance to the hive to fill with snon
and ice , stopping ventilation ; that it
is the nature of the bco to perspire
more freely in the winter time , and
as they always seal the hive on top
the bottom must be kifyt open or
they will soon smother and
die. Mr. Faul has twelve hives
in hia back yard and not a very large
yard at that. Ho will have as the re
sult of the labor of his little busy
workers from thcso twelve hives about
1,000 pounds of honey for sale. They
will bring him $ -00. The bees cost
him about $5 last winter , which ho
paid for sutmr to help them through
an unexpected cold and long season.
Wo will soon have from Mr. Faul's
own pen an article entitled , "How to
winter bees , " which wo will publish
in thcso columns.
