It contains over 1,000 cans and reaches from the flair to the celling , containing nil kinds of fruits and vegota- \ ( r Ides. Don't mtss seeing it. J l The old scales on Willow street , the i , ; ownership of which seems a matter elf f doubt , nnd the disposition of which has | / ' < f often proved n theme of talk in the conn ' > , cil , wers yesterday removed by order of tbe city fathers , and stored until whoever is the owner should take them away and pay costs. / * The police were yesterday called ou vo hunt up a stray little three-year-old , n grand child of N. F. Story , the master mechanic of the Chicago & Hock Island. The child was missed about 11 o'clock In tbe forenoon , and was still missing at G ( , ' ' o'clock in the evening. Tbe mother Is I Mrs. V/ickwIro , of Omaha , who with the t L t r ' child are visiting here. The city council haying had its atten tion called to the fact that saloons wlthitr two miles of the city llmita are subject to the sasae llcenje as though located within the city , has instructed the marshal to notify such keepers to call at the Captain's office and eottlo. As no such demand has over been made on them before , a protest may be expected. A number from hflre , including L. Chapman , J. J. Fratnoy , Ed. Hughes , Albert Nonck , Ira Hendrlok , Charlie Stir- -raden and J. Barko went to Omaha Thurs * day to see McCulloufth In "The Gladla- tor. " They were highly pleased , but the pleasure of tha evening was badly jarred ty their trhls and tribulations In securing a passage homo. Instead of finding n spe cial train as expected , they were Informed by thoTJ. P. agent that there was no way ; to get back to Council Bluffs except to | swim , After a time they induced him to let the dummy take them across the fridge for 810. In their anxiety to get homo they came down with the mwbuck and secured passage. On the dummy i train they learned that if they Imvo been sharp enough to have w.vlted a little longer they could have got over ou a freight train. When the foot and wagon bridge is built , there will be an end to these an noyances and extortions , and one can ride ocwalk to suit hlspurao nnd suit hla time. By all means hurry up with the wagon bridge. Gaining Titles. The following transfer of real es tate are reported as taken from the ceunty records by J , W.

Under the code of the state the executive council estimates the number of miloa which any railway has in the state , and the total value of the same , together with nil im provements and equipments used in operating the road , and then strikes an average or how much a inilo it is io bo valued at in possessing. It certifies to each county the number of miles to each road in that county and the value per mile , and the county board in turn certifies to each town the length and value of the roads in that town- ship. As a result of this procedure a milo of the Chicago , Ilock Island & Pacific railway is valued at § 12,700 , whether it is on the prairie , without a bridge , culvert or ling station , or whether it is in the heart of Council Blufla , with depots , warehouse's ' , side > tracks nnd hotel. As a result of thi mode of assessing some strange in consistencies nro apparent. The tola valuation of the railway property in this county is figured at § 014,580 and although this city pays three fifths of all the taxes rnisod in the county , yet it is allowed a valuatior on the railway property within its limits of only § 14 ,795. The property of the Chicago , Rock Island & Pacific in this county is valued at § 324,712 , yet the valuation of its property in this city is valued at only 870,200. What property the same road has in Garner t < / < vnship is valued at $85,000 ; in Norwalk town ship , $87,122 , and in Minden town hip it is valued at just as high a figure as all the property it owns in this city. The Chicago & Northwestern rail way is another instance. Its property in the county , outside of its city property , is valued at § 188,417 , and in this city at only $31,725. In Crescent township alone its property is valued at moro than twice as much as all its property in this city. Other figures of like import could bo given concerning other roads it this city. To make the facts moro aggra vating , the railways own much prop erty hero which is nominally used in operating the roads. It is stated that thcro are a number of lota across , perhaps , ono corner of which runs a side track or a rusty switch , ind the whole lot is thus elaimed as being a part of the jporating property of the road , when in fact it is rented out to some private Jarty for building purposes. The city ; ouncil is looking after some of these ots and after some other property ; laimed to bo a part of the railway jroper , and not subject to regular as icBsmont. There is , for instance , the now ole rater , which cost from § 200,000 to $300,000 $ , and which is claimed as ox- smpt from taxation because built by a > eel of all'the ' railways. It has been luggested by some who have invest- ! ; attid the matter that the city should irocood to assess and tax such railway iroporty as is being used for other han strictly operating purposns , and o proceed as on other property and ot the railways do the fighting. TTJRNING.THE TABLES- IherllT Gulttur Is Blmsolf Arrested While Serving Papers Upon Others. Sheriff Quittar hdd a little trip out nto the country yesterday for the mrposo of serving papers as a part of lia official duties , Having stopped at Uoca and done what ho had to dele lo there ho pushed on to Walnut. ioon alter his arrival ho mot a friend , md ia conversation with him stated hat ho had just come from Avoca. Cho words had barely passed his lips yhon thn marshal , not knowing who io was , stopped up to him nnd or- estod him. The marshal said that iValnut was quarantined against Ivoca , and ho has orders to arrest all t-angors hailing from there. The iherilT , without raukinghimsolf known , [ uiotly submitted , and the marshal narchod him before the mayor and presented his caso. The ahorill' urged ; hat witnesses bo sent for from Ivoca , and got the ofllcials into quito k puzzled state of mind. They did lot want to send an olllcor into Avoca md bring witnesses from there lest hey might thus import the small pox , ind Huch a course would break down ho quarantine restrictions. At the aino time it was a hardship to coop a man under arrest until the luarantino was raised , especially as ho prisoner declined to furnish bonds. L'ho man was entitled to witnesses , > ut to got thorn was as much of an iflenso as that which ho wao alleged o have committed , After trying to olvo the puzzle they concluded to let ho accused go , on his statement that jo was not a resident of Avoca , but lad only stopped off there on business. Chen the sheriff made himsoU known , ind the farce ended in smoke. There has been some bitterness iprung up between the residents of bValnut and Avoca , because of ho quarantine restrictions. Those Jving at Avoca fpol sore that such an nsinuation should bo made so pub- icly , nnd such a wide spread notice ihould bo made of their having lied a o\v cases of small pox. Some of the ntizens of Walnut foolishly charge ; hat florae of the Avoci folks would ladly import a caao of small ppx into ; heir yjllago if possible. So the war { oca oil. ThoBhoritfaimply foil n vie , na to thia feeling , IIol For an Opera Houao The talk of building an opera house wo is still kept up , in the hope that t will ripen into 'action , Th'osug- ' irectcd for $30,000 or $40,000. Such . V _ _ . _ \ . tmM ± L * . a a suggestion is sheer rfonscnso. A "building" can , perhaps , bo put up for that amount , but it would bo vorj foolish to think thnt nny sncli amount would provide for at "opera houso' ' worthy of the name. The only danger of the present situa tion is that nemo such small or cheap building will bo put up. If no , it will have a tendency to prevent this city from havinjt for many years , at least , and perhaps prevent forever , such a building as this city should have as an amusement center. Coun cil BlufTa is growing , and is bound to grow , and if an opera house is built , it should be ono which will not only meet the present ncds , but will meet the needs of twenty ycais hence. The opera house in Omaha cost up wards of § 100,000. This city should have as fine an opera house as Omaha , and it can have ono , if the citizens will show n little pluck and enterprise. It will bo a detriment to sccuro only n building of but ordinary size and attainment , as it will eorvo as a dog in the manger when any attempt is made in the future to build ono moro suit able to the needs of the city. Let the push bo rn.-ulo for a largo , hand some structure , which will merit the attention of the whole country. THE BOARD OF TRADE. to OHlcors and Members and What They are Doing and Can Do. The board of trade of Council Blufia is a comparatively younjt organization , having been started just prior to Jan uary 1 , 1881. Its work has been not so much of a commercial nature a ? of a general utility order. Various mat ters of concern to the city as a whole , rather than to the board of trade as n body , have been brought up from time to time for thought and action , and much practical good has been ac complished. Still moro ought to bo done to help build up the city , nnd io champion its interests , but for a lethargy among many who ohould give the Board their hearty support. Thcro are a number of enterprises such as the building of an opera house and the securing of a govern ment building , which could bo mighti ly helped along by this organization if all its members wore keenly alive nnd enthusiastic , and these who ought to join wonld como in readily and work willingly. Such an organization when properly manned nnd heartily supported can do a great work for this cily. When meetings are called they nro too often neglected , and the few who do gather shrink from tak ing the responsibility of moving in important matters. In the hope that the organization may gather to itself moro strength , may attract moro at tention , nnd may take fresh courage , THE BEE gives the following list of the present membership of the board : L. 0. Baldwin John W. Clmnmnn Marshall Key F. C. No ell Lewis Hammer J. J. Hathaway Geo. C. Keelino J. H. Davidson H. E. Heamnn It. C. Hubbard John T. Bildwlu 32.1) ) . Hnrkncsa A. O. Grnhnm John N.

With such men , all alive and in earnest , and with the additional sup port of many others who ought to join , there is strength enough to make a success of almost any plan or enterprise worth pushing forward , if this strength could be concentrated &nd rightly directed.
