The Episcopal church entertainment
lias been postponed until to-morrow even
ing , and is to be held at Bloom & Nixon's
hall.
The Baptist church folk have fixed
upon Tuesday evening , May 2 , as the dnto
of their entertainment , and Dohnny's as
the place ,
Berry's juxcnllo band have provided
themselves with new uniforms and expect
to appear in them for the first time at the
Odd Fellows' anniversary in Omabn next
Wednesday. ,
X The Congregational festival , In their
church Friday evening , gave many on op
portunity of seeing the improvements
and also of helping pay for the same in a
happy manner , there being an entertain
ment of a pleasing nature.
The old hand engine has been fitorcd
away &s no longer of any me. Strcotvlllo
wanted It located there , so that they
anight use it in case of fire , but the powers
that bo thought clscwiso , and stored it , so
that it will do no gold to any ono.
11 Judge Ay les worth should bounce the
Li * alarm clock from the superior court room.
It is too much of an alarm clock. It went
off the other night about 10 o'clock nnd
made such H rattle that it was taken for a
telephone fire alarm , and the boys wcro
roused from Hlumber to no purposo.
The pnblio library is to open this of-
tcrnoon , and will hereafter bo open ctory
afternoon and evening , for six hours , clos
ing at 0 p. in. No book can bo kept out
longer than two weeks , and ovcry ono

"Peanut Charley" was reported by

night nd fighting on the streets , It is

of McCarthy's saloon on Upper Broad way ,

The base ball season is not tabs

corner of Tenth and Seventh avenue.
Saturday night was not very favorable
lor the show business. The rain which
bad fallen all day , the sloppy , muddy con
dition of ktrcets and sidewalks , made honio
and tbo fireside more tempting. Still there
was a fair sized audience to greet Havorly's
Strategists nt Dohany's. ' The company is
a very good one and the play Is light and
pleasing and gives many excused for hearty
laughter.
The Nonpareil feels sere about having
bad the publishing of the council proceed
ings abolished. It diminishes the receipts
of that ofilce from 81,200 to 81,500 a year ,
and hence it feels grieved. Ono of its rep
resentatives U reported as making the
threat that it would now have a man at the
meetings to "write up the council" Instead
of the proceedings. Its bitterness showed
up a little yesterday In its puerile attempt
to speak sarcastically of the council as
' 'that wise and august body known as the
city council. " This is consistent with the
Nonpareil's policy of acting from spite and
eolfishnoss , rather than from principle.
J. W , Rodlfor has purchased the Test
property in tne eastern part of the city ,
Just south of Falrmount park , and intends
making a permanent homo , improving the
bouao and the fourorfiyo acres surrounding
it , thus making oa fine a piece of residence
property as ono could deslro , There is
from twenty-five to thirty acres besides ,
which is included In the purchase , and
which Is to be platted and thrown upon the
market as residence lots. It will be chris
tened Falrmount addition , in view of its
' being adjacent to the park of that name ,
A number of the lots are already spoken
for by parties intending to build bouses ,
nd others will doubtless follow.

The Campaign on the Prohibition -

Opened.

tbo Line ,
Talk About Organizing n Citizens
League For Enforcing the Or
dinances.
The campaign on the prohibitory
amendment , -which fa soon to bo sub
mitted to a veto of ttio people , hns
fairly opened. The prohibition party
at a late mooting in the Broadway
Methodist church completed its organ
ization and arrangements have ainco
boon' made by the executive board to
hold mooting ! ! at various pointa in the
county , and ono such mooting has
already boon hold. Arrangements
have also boon made for n rouging
mooting at Dolmny's hall to-morrow
evening for a full and free discussion
of the question and as a sort of open
ing fire of the heavy artillery. Short
speeches , readings , lively music and
other enthusiastic doings are on the
programme , and an interesting occasion
ia promised to which all are invited ,
The opponents of the amendment
have also opened the campaign in a
lively manner. Iholr mooting at Plan *
tors' hall Friday evening being well
attended. Goortro 11. Wheeler was
chosen shairman and John W. Adolf
secretory. The situation nan ably sot
forth by Robert Pcrcival and John
Lindt , after which addresses
the "Council Bluffs Anti-Prohibition
Club" with about sixty charter mem
bers , and the following ofllccrs : Pres
ident , Robert llain ; recording secre
tory , John W. Adolf ; corresponding
secretary , A. Larch ; treasurer , D.
Hoist.
Calls wore made for John Ahlos ,
but ho declined to speak.
Ex-Mayor Vaughan gave a brief
talk , and Alex Obcrt oflorcd $5 for
any advocate of the amendment to
take the platform. No takers.
Adjournment wan then taken until
Friday evening , the 28ill , at which
titno further arrangements will bo
made for tarrying on the campaign.
The attention of some of the citi
zens has boon called to a different
phase of temperance work , which is a
happy moan between the no-whisky
and the free-whiskey policies. Such n
course has boon pursued in Chicago ,
and has mot with much success. An
organization has boon perfected , and
is at work actively known as the
"Citizens' League. This organiza
tion is for the purpose of seeing that
the ordinances regarding ! saloons and
gambling houses are strictly enforced.
Men are kept steadily employed de
tecting violations , and seeing that
prosecutions are successfully carried
am Ono chief purpose of the or
ganization in to stop the sale of liquor
to minors , and to prevent the boys
from lounging about salpons , playing
pool , wasting their time , and getting
into loaforish and drinking habits.
The work thus carried on has mot
with good results , there having boon
i decrease in the number of boys who
frequent saloons , and bartenders are
much moro cautious than over as to
soiling to persons who are drunk , for
they are liable to prosecution for this
also. The policy of thin organization
Is to have the ordinances strictly enforced -
forced , rather than bpond their time
and energy 'in working directly for
prohibition.
This policy is supported in a prac
tical way by many citizens. Temperance -
anco men , who totally abstain them
selves , and who favor prohibitionwill-
ingly help along this organization ,
looking upon it as a stop in the right
direction , and though not going so far
is they would prefer , yet an a move in
favor of law and order they support
it. On the other hand , many
men , who are not abstainers
thomsolvojj , are in favor of
having the lawu obeyed , and who do
tut want their boys to drink , or
lounge about saloons , or who have
intemperate friends to whom they do
not want drinks sold. Many such
men give practical support to the or
ganization.
For instance , ono brewer , who was
informed by the oilicers of the loagu *
that his boy was spending his time
around saloons , was among the most
earnest to have the men who sold him
liquor prosecuted if they did not stop.
Ho took tbo petition that if Ids boy
wanted any boor ho would give him a
little at homo , but ho objected
earnestly to having the boy drink at
bars around town.
Such instances nro common , and
the support of many men is secured ,
who would oppose almost any other
temperance movement. The plan
la worthy of consideration htiro.
There are many minors who frequent
saloons in this city , drinks are sod to
man already very drunk , and no stops
are taken to stop the practice. The
officers file no informations for thr u
violations of the ordinance , iiml if
they should , the evidence would usu
ally bo found technically deficient.
With such an organization , and inon
especially for the purpose of detecting
offenses and securing evidence , the
evils could bo greatly chocked and
much bo done toward saving the boys ,
and preventing drunkenness nmoiif ;
these whoso appetites have outrun
their judgement and will power ,

NO DELEGATES WANTED
The Proapeotaofa Government
Building For Council BlufFa.
Another Farcical Chapter In the Pic
nic and Excursion Scheme ,
As has already boon stated in TUP
BEE , a ohanpo has been made in the
delegates chosen to go on to Washing
ton to help along the passage of the
bill appropriating money for the erec
tion of a government building hero.
Instead of "Colonel" Chapman and
Mr. Morgan being sent , it has been
decided to send Dr. Lawrence and W ,
C. James , Judge James was in Chicago
cage at the time of this last decision ,
and a telegram was sent him to go on
to Washington. On receipt of this
telegram ho replied that ho thought it
was of no use , and instead of going
cast ho started west , and reached
homo Saturday.
It appears that on the way to Chi-
cigo Judge James mot on the train
Congressman Hepburn , and they had
a long chat together in regard to the
bill. Mr. Hepburn explained the sit
uation quito fully , IIo stated that
about 130 such bills had been in
troduced , and that fitly had been
reported on formally. Ho feared that
the bill for Council Bluffs could not
bo reached at this session , It stood
about the thirtieth on the list. The
only way was to have it taken up un
der a suspension of the rules , and
this could occur only on the first Mon
day of each month. On the first
Monday in April there were four bills
passed , and on the speaker's list Mr.
Mr. Hepburn's name now stands ninth
for recognition , and this could not beget
got around except by a unanimous
consent , which of course could not bo
gained. On the next Monday , there
fore , there is little talk of
Mr. Hepburn's name being reached
end it is doubtful whether it will bo
on the following chance in June.
Congressman Hepburn seemed to
think that a delegation could not ac
complish anything more , and that all
that could bo done was already being
done. Ho would , of course , bo glad
to have a delegation como on to
Washington , but did not speak as
though there was much chance for
them to do anything of account.
After this talk Judge James was
rather surprised to receive a telegram
from hero urging him to go to Wash
ington. After reaching his
homo , ho yesterday afternoon
telegraphed to Mr. Hepburn repeat
ing the query as to whether a delega
tion could do any good , and will not
start unless ho gets an ullirmativo re
ply , which is doubtful. Judge James
very sensibly takes the position that
ho does not care to go to Washington
and spend the people's money unless
ho is certain that something can bo
accomplished , which to his mind is
now very doubtful. '

A Frenchman Thinking nowas to bo
Robbed takes a Midnight Run
tate tbo Country ,
Saturday night two Frenchmen who
were unable to talk any English , ar
rived in this city , having travelled to
gether for the last eight months.
Eaoli. had sonio money , and they took
lodgings nt the California house. YDS-
terday morning the younger of the
two found that his partner was mica-
ing , and inquiring for him. learned
that about 10 o'clock at ni ht ho loft
Ills room and came down into the
oillco , and started out doors saying ho
would bo back in a few minutoa. Ho
did not roturn.rhowovor , and , his
partner waa naturally greatly worried
about him , as the hours passed by
and nothing won heard of him. Ho
reported the case to the police , , and
Utod the Aliasing man had about
$90 with him in gold , which gave rise
lo the supposition lhat ho had been
foullydealt with. The police started
out on n search , but could find no
trace of him until late in the after
noon , when the missing man waa
brought to the police station , by a
man living in the easterly part of the
city.Tho
The man could talk some Gorman
end his story was to the following of-
foot : Ho says ho wont to bed
about 8 o'clock in the ovoningand was
given a room with a talljungamly ook-
ing man , Ho was somewhat suspicious
and pretended to go lo sleep , end
about 10 o'clock the stranger com
menced feeling about him , as he sup
posed , for the gold which ho had hid
den in his bosom. Ho jumped up ,
put on his clothes , and went down into
the office. Ho wns badly frightened ,
and started out , thinking ho would
got some other hotrl to stop in , but
was followed by several mpn. who
struck him and tried to rob him. Ho
got away from them and run as fast as
ho could. On reaching Bancroft street ,
ho hurried back of the Merchants'
restaurants , nnd hid his bag of gold
In the bank , nnd then run on. Ho
never stopped until ho got far out
into the country , and stayed there
hidden in the brush , so scircd that ho
could not sloop. Yesterday forenoon
ho wended his way back to the city ,
and near the outskirts applied at a
house for oomo ono who could speak
Gorman. Ho was taken to a house a
little further along , there found a
Gorman , and being able to speak that
language somewhat , the Frenchman
told his story , and a kindly disposed
man brought him down to the station
In his buggy. Ho wont to where ho
had hiddod his , wealth , and found _ it
all secure. The Frenchman was still
badly f rich toned j and < VRU in rather a
deplorable- condition , having had no
sloop or food , and his nerves being
badly shaken up ,
The proprietor of the California
house says that all ho knows about it
is that the man came dowu from his
room nnd said that he was going out
for a few minutes , and that ho did not
como back in again. How much of
: ho attempt at robbery was real , and
iow much imagination , is hard to de
termine , but to the man himself it
was all real , and a worse frightened
stranger has not shown up in this city
lor years.
