It startles the average citizen to think

The work of moving the fire alarm
bell Irom the tower back of tha pollen
stitlon to the tower of the new engne
house , began yesterday afternoon , It
proved quite a task , the bell weighing 1,000
poundx , nnd the tackle being rather Innuf-
ficlenty for easy handling.
The prospect is th tt Patrick Lacy Is
to secure another term as chief of the fire
department. The Rescue- company , at its
meeting Wednesday evening , recommended
him M the chief , and the other company
will doubtless do 'the same , and It remains
tor the council to confirm nih action.
There is nothing sturtlmgly new nbjut
the proposed contest over the election. It
will probably end where it begar , ( n
Vaughan shouting "Fraud. " The fact
that the cry comes from him , and that it
Is the gasp of a defeated candidate , la
about enough. Still , If there has been
fraud , let It be exposed , . .whoever or'whero-
ever It may fall.
The numerous cases against Dowdy ,
for selling without a saloon license , for
keeping a disorderly houto , etc. , have
dropped quietly and myBteriously. There
now seemi no one inclined to prosecute.
The question of hU license Is n mixed one ,
tha council having granted him ono , but
being enjoined from Issuing blm the neces
sary papers or taking his money. In re
gard to the charge of keeping a disorderly
bouse , It Is claimed that ho U running bin
placa more decently now , and those who
, complained before are willing to give him
a chance to keep straight.
THE BEK , a few days ago , called at
tention to a B id case , In whoh a young and
destitute 'mother ' uni bibe needed help
from the charittbly inclined , One kindly
Disposed lady lias Investigated the cute ,
and has given and secured some help , and
tcha reports that a rocVIng chair Is among
, the needfuls. Any one willing to furnish
one , or give any other nteded aid , can
learn details of the case by applying at
this office. Tun UEE would publicly give
names and location , -were It not for the
fact that auch publicity would be cruel
rather than charitable under the clroum-
tancta.
The proposed purchuio of i he Amy
property , tbo closing of wilch | bargain Is
about cowpkt 'd by the council Juit going
put , Is an ia.portaut pne , The property is
BO located that | f it comes into the pos-
aesslpn of the city it will furnish ample
accommodation for city purpcues. If the
creek is flumetl between the utone culvert
and the iron bridge on Main street , then
this city would have a valuable location
indeed for iU city building , and ita new
engine house wiUtld be upon the same
*
ground , Thu erection of a new city buildIng -
Ing will soon become an almost Imperative
heed. Under the new form of city govern
ment th'ore are a number of offices and a
court-room to be provided In planning
for a building which will accommodate the
various departments nt city Kovernmont ,
it would be well also to provide fnr n pub
lic market place. Omaha hai taken utopu
in this direction , and why not Council
ZllulW A large number , and eapcclrjly of
the working clas , are very anxious to have
a market place provided , and a city Jiall
and market house combined would be a
good improvement. If the enterprise Is
jtuHciouily managed it can be pushed to a
.successful completion without a great out
lay cm the part of the city ,
Mrs. Holloway has had plans pre
pared for a hotel eho has thought of

AT LOSS FOB A BILL.
Mooting of the Brldgo Committee o
tno Two Oltlos.
Yesterday afternoon , in pursuance
with arrangements inado at the las
meeting in Omaha , the joint commit
teen of the two cities mot at the boarc
ot trade rooms in this city to take fur
thcr steps concerning the securing o
a bridge across the river. There wore
present Irom Omaha President II. 0
Clark and Secretary Thomas Gibson
of the board of trade , 8. 11 , Johnson
M. Ucllmnn , Henry Pundt , Josopl
Shooloy and T. W. T. Richards
From this city there was present J.
\V. Rodofor , J. T. Hart , T. McCarecr ,
Marshall Key , A. B. McKuno , Henry
Molcalf , A. 0. Qraham and T. J.
Evans.
In the absence of the chairman ol
the joint committees , Mr. Gibson
called the meeting to order , and on
motion Mr. Olark , of Omaha , was ap
pointed chairman.
Mr. Mctcalf , of the committal ) ap
pointed from this city to draft A bill
to present to congress , was called upon
for A report. Ho stated that ho was
j the only ono present of that commit-
1 too , Oolonol Sapp and Mr. Pusoy , the
| two other members being out of the
city. Those two gentlemen had
drafted a bill , but it was not to bo
found at their offices , and they being
absent , it was net possible to present
the report.
A Himilar committee had boon ap
pointed for Omaha , but tint committee -
too reported that the members had
been very busy , and that , having full
confidence in the Council Bluffs com
mittee , the drafting of the bill had
boon left to them.
There seemed to bo nothing to do
without the bill , as the mooting was
for the special purpose of discussing
its provisions. It was therefore do *
cidod to adjourn until next Wednes
day afternoon at 2 o'clock , when the
committees will moot in Omaha , and
at which time the bill will bo on hand.
Ono of the chief questions which will
be discussed most earnestly is whether
a railroad bridge and wagon bridge
will bo built , or whether a wagon
bridge only. The former plan Dooms
the most favored by the Omaha
parties , and it is urged in its favor
that Buflloiont aid can bo had from
railway companies in building the
bridge so that the wagon portion of it
would cause no financial ourden. It
is urged , too , that if the , citizens got
the charter and then lot some railroad
build under this charter , it will TJO
moro favorable for the people , and
the rights of the public will bo moro
protected than if a railway company
should secure a charter of its own.
On the other hand , there is such a
fooling against the way in which the
present bridge is being controlled that
the citizens want to have a bridge
which is entirely out of the roach of
all railway control. It is feared that
if it is in ahy respect a railway bridge
that it will soon bo nothing moro nor
less than the present bridge , and will
provo a monopoly affording scarcely
hotter accommodations than these now
so meagerly given to the public.
CONCERNING THE CROOKED.
Various Itema'Oloanod ' About Police
Headquarters.
< A follow named Kelioy was bonatly
ugly drunk Wednesday night and it
required both Chief Fields and Mar
shal Morse to steer him safely to the
calaboosp. There ho smashed what
little furniture there is in the place ,
kicked ever the stove and raised a
t
jonoral commotion. Yosterda/ morn
ing ho was sober enough to plead
guilty and was fined $10 , and given
a chance to work it out. cash being an
unknown commodity with him.

mental drunk Wednesday night. The
usual $0.85 was assessed and the fol-
ow , giving his name aa James

There seems to bo some tardiness in
ollowing up Murray and Dee Dotter ,
-ho two who participated with Bolts
n the Keg Creek robbery. It is saia
; hat money is needed to follow up the
'allows , and that the officers are wait
ing for the citizens of Keg Creek , or
; ho family friends , to put up thu
necessary wherewith , and unuit tempt
a being made tOigotitho governor to
offer a reward. It is claimed that
with money to pay expenses , there is
i good chance of a successful chase.
Information has been filed against
Bo tn , uqt only for assault with intent
to murder , but also for robbery.
Paving Main Street.
The paving of Main street is still a
matter of mixed talk. Bids were ad
vertised for some time ago , and then
the property owners thought it was
boat to wait until the waterworks
company laid ita mains , for if the pav
ing was done first , a portion of it
would need bo taken up to put in the
pipes , and it oould not bo rolaid 0.1
well as in the first placo. With thio
view of the hiattor the. matter was
laid ever by the council , and the soli
tary bid received was tucked in the
pigpon-holu unopened. The old coun
cil is to dlo to-morrow , and of course
that kills their doings in the matter ,
and the new council will Imvo to start
in afresh. Several contractors are
waiting rather anxiously to see
what the outcome will bo and
are trying to keep truck as to
when bids will bo received again.
Mr. Perkins , a Chicago contractor ,
was hero yesterday , and interviewed
several of the city otllcials. Ho wanU
to pave with Cedar blocks , but says
that if the matter is postponed much
longer , the blocks will cost much
moro than now , as now _ is the time
when the supply is being got at for
the Reason , and the supply s regulated
by the amount needed by cities
which have decided to use them. If
the city does not speak for the Oodur
blocks now , it will have to pay moro
for them late in the season , Of course
much of this is talk , for the amount
needed for main street will not form
any gaoat factor in figuring up thu
total supply , and then again the city
may not clooido to use Oedar blocks.

GLBNWOOD , March 8. The district
cowrt , Judge ifeed presiding , is now
in session hero. The principal case
tried thus far , is that of Christian Pitman -
man , who about two years ago , killed
a Mr. Masson , near Avoca , Potta-
wattamio county. The case comes hereon
on a change of venue. Halo and
Stone assist in the prosecution , while
the defense is conducted by Myrstcr
ft Adams. The case was given to the
jury on Saturday night , and the jury ,
after wrestling with the caao till Sun
day oTeningagreodto disagree. Two ,
it is understood , hold for manslaughter -
tor , and six for acquittal , the others
Tvoro divided. Wo hoard a part of
the trial. The prisoner and the de
fendant quarrelled , and at last Mas-
son "reached for" Pitman , took him
by the head , and declared that ho
would swing his nock. Here the
story gets mixedbut at last it appears
that Pitman , who was not only the
under , but the little dog in the fight ,
found opportunity to stab his assail
ant four or five times with a jack
knife. Masson fell in the road and
died there , a short time after.
The court docket is pretty full.
Another murder case is yet to bo
tried Tultlo and Wolf , who killed o
man in a drunken row at Malvorn * a
year and a half ago. *

The suicide of Mr. Valentino
'lumb , noted in TUB BEE of Satur
day , was a shock to all , but was not
altogether a surprise to somo. A
member of the family told us that the
locoased's mind had boon in such con-
lition for months that his suicide was
oared. The deceased was af od sixty-
, wo years. Ho was a wealthy farmtir ,
and resided about six miles noVth of
lastings. Long continued ill health ,
and perhaps some other causes , con-
ributod to the sad event.

Match 1 ,
On the night of the Gth of July ,
1881 , about 8 o'clock , there com
menced ono of the most memorable
storms that over visited central Iowa ;
nothing like it had over boon wit
nessed by the oldest inhabitant * . The
DCS Moincs river rose over sit fee * in
ono hour little rills that were dry
almost the year round suddenly devel
oped into miniature rivers massive
railway bridges and lines of track
were swept sway as if they had been
cobwebs. It wan while looking out oi
her window towards the high railroad
bridge over Honey creek that Kate
Shelly saw the advancing headlight ol
a locomotive descend into an abyss
and become extinguished , carrying
with it the light of two lives. It was
then that she realized in all its force
that a terrible catastrophe had occur
red , and if not averted another moro
terrible would soon follow , the cast
bound express train heavily laden with
passengers from the Pacific. She an
nounced to mother , sisters and brother
that she mutt go to ( ho scene of the
accident , and render assistance if pos
sible , and also warn the oncoming pas
senger train.
It was in vain they tried to dissuade
her. Although she waa obliged to
almcst Improvise a lantern in many of
its parts , it was but a few minutes be
fore she was ready tosofr out. Real
izing then that her mission waa one of
peril , and that she might not look
igain upon those dear faces , she kissed
each of them affectionately , and amid
their sobs hurried out into the gloom ,
into the descending Hoods , toward the
rushing torrents , drenched to the
skin. On she passed toward the rail
road , to the well-remembered looting , ,
only to find the waters rushing high
above and beyond the place-whore it
led boon. Then she thought of the
; reat bluff rising t6 the west of her
tome and extending southward toward
.ho railroad track , and she determined
.o ascend it and roach the bridge ever
this barrier to tlio waters. Need I
recount how she struggled on and up
ihrough the thick undergrowth , that ,
} olng storm-laden , dioopod and made
more difficult her passage ; how with
clothes torn and hands and face bleed-
ng she arrived at the end of the
jndgo , and standing out upon the
ast tie she peered down into the
abyss of waters with her dim light
tnd called to knew if auyono was
.hero alive. In anawor to her re
peated calls came the answer of the
ingincor , ' who had caught hold of and
nude a lodgement in a tree top , and
around whom the waters were still
rapidly rising , sending floating logs ,
.reos and driftwood against his frail
support , and threatening momentarily
o dislodge and engulf him. It took
jut a moment to bo assured that ho
waa a survivor of four men who wont
down with the engine , and after
a moment's hurried consultation
she started for Moingond , a
nile distant , to secure assistance and
.o warn the eastward bsund passenger
.rain then nearly due. As aho passed
along the high grade it seemed as if
aho must bo blown ever the embank
ment , and still the heavens seemed to
; ivo not ram but a deluge. As she
ipproachcd the railway bridge ever
, ho Dos Moines river the light in her
antorn , her only guidoand protection ,
wont out. It was then that thohoroio
soul of this child of only 1G years became -
came most fully apparent ; facing the
storm which almost took away her
3tenth , and enveloped in darkness
; lmt rendered every object in nature
invisible , she felt her way in to the
railroad bridge , Here oho must pass
for'a distance of between 400 and 500
feet over the rushing river beneath on
the naked ties. Aa the wind swept
the bridge she felt how unsafe it
would bo to attempt walking over it ,
and getting down upon her hands and
knees , clutching the timbers with an
almost despairing energy , she pain
fully and , at length successfully made
the passage. She reached the depot ,
and , having told of the catastrophe at
the bridge , and requesting the stop
page of the passenger train then about
duo , aha fainted and fell upon the
platform. This , yery briefly , want
ing in much that is .meritorious in it ,
is the story of Kato Shelly and the
Bth of July. Her parents were coun
trymen of Sara field , of Emmet , and
J'Conner of the land that has given
heroes to every other and dishonored
none. It waa an act well worthy to
rank with that other heroine , who ,
launching her frail. craft from the
long stone pier , braved the terrible
seas on that Northumberland coast to
lave the lives of others at the risk of
lor own.
