ture had been obtained to the protest

A formal acceptance of the ordi

tors.Chief
Chief of Police Fields desired to
have the serious charges lately made
public against the police department
fully investigated. The desire was
giuntod by the appointment of a com
mittee consisting of Aid , Spetman ,
Keller and Kaino the
, mayor statim ;
that ho had suggested to the chief the
propriety of asking for such an inves
tigation , as ho bulioved the charges
wuro all buncomb.
801110 time was spent in arranging
for polling places , and naming judges ;
and clerks. The work being incom-
plnto , it was left with the mayor and
aldermen to finish up yesterday.
The finance committee reported that
there were uncolloolod taxes amount
ing to $07,030. There were outstand
ing warrants to the umount of $37-
320 , and the loan fund $11,000 , leav
ing a balance of 910,505 on , which tote
run the city. li RUS13V * * * § ' H
This revived the discussion as to
whether work on the rapids improve ro
ment had bettor bo pushed or not.
The major was jubilant ut the show-
ing , who
Aldpnnan Holier thought that the
council had better move slow. There
was the engine house to bo finished ;
there were many dirt tickets and
lloating accounts to settle ; there were
mcossary rupuits to bo made to tl < o
Htroots , and sonio jolts already com
menced which must be finished. mBy
tho' time all this was done there
would bo little left.
Alderman UnUuink was also in laver -
vor of moving slowly.
After much talk , it was decided to
proceed with the work on Main
street for two days , and then suspend
all but the small jobs until the moot
ing Friday evening. A committee ,
consisting of Aldermen Spetmon ,
Phillips and Uaino , was appointed to
assist the supervisor in directing the
work.
It was decided to pay Mr. Sliugart ;
$24 for aix mimtlia storage of the can
non , nnd to notify tlio adjutant gen
eral of tlio state to tuko the piece
aivay. It was concluded tlmt too
- ninny accidents attutidod salutes , and
tliut ' ' nil thu noise necessary for a jubi-
liition could bo mndo with less danger
tlian with a cannon.

1 pronch gr.idudj no tlmt the house
' might bo occupied in the course of ten
[ ' days.

presented calling for 8725. Alderman
'I ' i Dinvflon said Micro was only about $2
in the fire bond fund with which to
pay it , nnd some other way must bo
provided to meat the bill , It was fin
ally referred to the finance committoo.

There Inib been seine ill-fooling between -
twoon Mollie Scott and another colored -
od girl named Maggie Haigood , and
night before lust Mollie arrived in
town from Omaha and proposed to
settle some old scores with Maggie-
Tlio interview took place in front of
Maggio's laundry , and the lottor'a
white man and a nuinbor of colored
folks gathered about and took a part
in the word-slinging and abuse. As
an outcome Mollie was arrested for
using obscene Lingungu on the street ,
and yesterday was brought before
Recorder JJurko , and surrounded by
a dark cloud of witnesses. Mollie de
clared : "I'so a Tennessee coon , 1 iz ,
an * dur don't no yore commun celled
pusson git away wid yer rennuBsee
coo'i and walk oil " She was still
hustling for a tight , and there was a
lively commotion stirred up among
the witnesses , who all wanted to testi
fy al the same time , and who
blabbered nnd blustered until the
chief stamped his foot and yelled for
quiet , and thu 'squire ' covered his oars
with his hands. Order was finally re
stored sufficiently for Mollie to bo
adjudged guilty and her bill footed
up at § 13.20.
Shu walked forth breathing von-
gonnco upon Maggie and her white
follow , and tracked them till they got
out of sight of the ollicors , and then
proceeded to fasten her claws in her
wool and shake up her lively. The
Tennessee coon was wild and it took
three husky officers to make her lei
go. They tumbled her into un express -
press wuguii and transported her to
behind the bars again.

Yesterday afternoon there was a

Are Wo Wrong ?
CrcHon Aihcrtlecr.
The railroad commissioners , in their
report , attribute much of the fault
finding of shippers to a lack of
knowledge of railroad business.
That's just it. The railroad com
missioners have hit it exactly. Wo
are all too ignorant of the business.
Wo have always noticed that when a
practical railroad man had goods de
tained two weeks going ono hundred
miles ho invested his soul and said
nothing. There is something heaven
ly , too , in the calm placidity with
which a man born on a flat-car and
brought up in a freight oilico goes to
confession , and tolls his priest that ho
has had to slip goods through his own
town ono hundred miles west and
back again , in order to prevent their
costing him moro than they arc .
worth.
The only remedy , then , for the ex
isting evils is for all to become rail
road men. We don't know enough
about the business. Its intricate
workings are as great a mystery to us
as the ruins of Pompeii. When mer
chants fail to rccoivo goods in as good
order as shipped they mustn't "kick , "
but go ever into the yards and learn
how to leave a freight car on a Ride
track whore no one can find it for a
month or two. Ono who has never
tried it cannot toll how solacing to the
feelings this knowledge will bo. Tlio
moro the car you hide away is wanted
soniflwhcro tliu greater the solaco.
People nowadays nre too awfully
ignorant. They must brace up and
learn something about the manner of
working these great lines of trafllo
which do so much to thobonofit of the
country. This knowledge will enable
them to understand
how poopln are
robbed and mistreated
simply because
they lack a knowledge of railroad
business.

Dos Moines Leader Gowrio letter ,
24 : "A funny coincidence occurred on
the Dos Moincs and Fort Dodge rail
road last evening , on the passenger
train that loft Das Moincs at 2 r. M.
It was just too utterly funny , and all
the passengers AS well as jour report
er'took it in.1 The.subject was a
couple who had just been married ,
and who knows but that this was the
"coming up" of their honeymoon.
His name was Sander , and if ho didn't
sand-hor over , we miss our guess very
much in the of ' '
, way 'swapping spit.
He looked up and down the car as
though ho expected somebody was
'gazing' at him , and then he suddenly
turned and clasped her to his bosom ,
and of course tho'reader ' knows what
followed. Ho tried it again in a sort
of Emma Abbott way. This was just
the thing , so ho practiced it several
times , when he stopped kissing and
hugged her a little , and here , kind
reader , ho displayed real genius. Ho
was a master in the art , and wouldn't
take a back seat for any one. He
clasped her gently , then he squeezed
her rapturous'y , then ho grabbed her
violently , then ho embraced her plow-
ly and impressively , then ho hugged
her firmly , as though he wna going to
remain in the hugging business the
remainder of his lite. The couple
kept up this 'funny business1 until
they reached Gowrio. When there
they alighted from the cars , to the
bitter disappointment of the pusson
gers and genial Billy Givens , the con
ductor. "
