A nnnibcr of our citizens , Including Jo. West , Ben Mark * , and Kx-County Clerk Warren ere largely interested in Rhecp raising In Nebraska , nnd own among them some 5,000 to 0,000 sheep. Henry Howe lias Bold hln roldcnc * and ten acres of ground in the edge of the city , to the fathcr-In-Inw of Mr , Set. by , of the Olenwood opera house. Mr. Howe has purchased the homo of Mm. Bllhip in the First ward. The decree ha Rene forth that complaints - plaints arc to be filed against every ( jamb- Jlng place in the city , and the threatened prosecutions ngalnst saloon men who vlo- ilate the ordinance * , has begun by the ar- irost of Pat Laoy.at whose place , it Is said , two bartenders-wore kept buiy Sunday night serving up drinks to the thirsty. The foreigner who skipped out of the California houw and wandered Into the country , claiming that nn attempt was made to rob" him , seems to have been suf fering from a crzy spell. An Investlga- tion shows that his story was largely the result of a diseased imagination. Ho told several different stories about the affair , and seems to have bocn dazed badly. Ho and his traveling companion left for St. Jotcph yesterday. The recent tequest of the water works company to have the lzo of the hos couplings sent to them so as to have 'the ire plugs ina-lo to correspond , seems rath er gauxy. In view of the abtcnco of any great practical showing of actlvo work , this request for the sl/e of hose coup lings looks BB though the company was going through some motions in the hope of getting further tlmo granted In which they could dispose of the bond" , and get money with which to build the works. Ihus it looks. The Honorable Jacob 0. Morgan has Toturncd from Chlosgo , having given up bis proposed trip to Washington , the cltl- zens concluding they would prefer to send another man. Ho BO far recovered from bis disappointment as to bo able to put in .all of yesterday In the ardm.ua task of -writing an eight-lino editorial , the most startling feature of which is that it was evidently original. It might have attrac ted attention but for its being unfortun ately buried In the usual amount of pill- praties'and plaster sensations. The publlo library was opened yester day afternoon , and there wa a goodly number of Tlsltors and callers for books. The finding llst.or catalogue is not yet prepared , so thai : some inconvenience Is caused , but this will soon be obviated. The rooms are very ooally arranged and there are between three and four thousand volumes , besides publio reports and docu ments , In response to the request of the o in charge TUB BED will bo found there daily in the reading room , nnd other periodicals will doubtless follow .suit. . Ilev. Tether MoMonomy and M. G. GrifBn , during their recent visit to Wash ington as delegates to the national land league , did not forget that Council Bluffs needs and ought to have a government f building , Both gentlemen were made prominent by the position given them by the league , and Father MoMenoray es pecially had many acquaintances and friends in both houses. These gentlemen improved the opportunity afforded by do ing flomo good work for the bill , and they secured the pledges of a number of influ ential representatives to do what they could to help the move along , and suc ceeded'In doing away with some opposi tion. They report very encouragingly as to the prospect for the bill , and think thut it stands an excellent chance. CUNNING"CANARD. . /L Spiteful Report that a Powder House Had Boon Struck by Llghtnlnff , The Nonpareil triud to work up H morning sensation to the ell'iiot that a powder house , locntud hi what h known , as Duck Hollow , had bcon struck by lightning , and totally do- etroyed , scattering the building over the ground , "but fortunately not igniting it. " The faol is that the building was not struck by lightning jit all , and the supposed ruina and nar row eucapo from splitting the cartli in twain existed only in the brain of the imaginative reporter , A tree located -about five hundred yards from the powder house was shivered by light' mug , and that was the foundation ol the whole yarn , The animus of thi matter was shown in the closing pan of the txrtiole , where it referred to tin fact that "tho city was petitioned lasl spring'to hare the house moved , as id proximity to the city rendered it dan gerous. " The fact is that the nomlei house is located in the center of a five aero piece of ground of its own ; is eel in a hollow , far away from every tiling , and is mush less dangerous than othei powder houses which have not been complained of at all. The sensational story was doubtless written up for the express purpose of awakening opposi tion to the location of the powdoi homo there , there being some whc liavo a petty spite in the matter , 8u li nows-givljn , ' , or rather news-making , is a comtnotvoccurronco with the man agers of the o > an in whoso columtu appeared BETWIXT AND BETWEEN , Congressman Hepburn Hesi tates About Discouraging Excursion Parties , His Last Telegram Not Very Hopeful. As stated in yesterday's UKE , Judge James , who was lately chosen as ono of the delegates to Washington to liolp along the bill for the now gov ernment building hero , had recently n chat with Congressman Hepburn , in which the latter expressed the opin- on that there was little hope of the ) ill being reached , nnd that a delega tion from hero would do no good. After this Mr. James was informed that ho and Dr. Lawrence had been chosen instead of Colonel Chapman and Mr. Morgan. Ha was surprised , and would not start until ho had heard ngain from Mr. Hepburn. In response to his telegram of inquiry ho yester day received a telegram from the con gressman stating that ho did not think , lie bill would bo reached next Mon day , but that it-might , nnd a delega tion would aid. This rather sur prised Mr. James , as the intimation ; hat a dolgatiou could aid is in direct : ontr dlction of the impression given > y the conversation between him and the congressman. It does not look at all possible that ; ho bill can bo reached next Monday , as Congressman Hepburn's name itands ninth on the speaker's list , and t IK doubtful whether inoro than four ) r flvp will bo disposed of , still leav ing him on the list. At the last Mon day on which such bills were taken up [ hero were four disposed of , nnd this ia the usual number , so that if four or live are disposed of on the first Mon day in May this will still Icrv'o the Council .Bluffs bill unconsidorod. From this outlook it is apparent that there is httlo chance tor it to bo reached until the first Monday in Juno , and perhaps not Jien. The fact seems to bo that Con gressman Hepburn is so afraid of spoiling some picnic or excursion trip planned by citizens hero that ho hesi- bates about coming out frankly and laying that a delegation would bn use > loss. It is natural , too , that he should rather prefer that a delegation would bo sent , nnd thus divide the responsibility in case of failure. These ' reasons may account'for the Deeming cortrndicti in between his conversa tion and his telegram. Judge James seems satisfied that the delegation can do no good , and is not inclined to go , even in view of tbo telegram received. Ho has hand ed it over to the gommittoo to act uoon , and the request that if they still think delegates should bo sent that they send aomo ono elso. Dr. Anson Smith says in The Evange list : "It teems to me that vociferous praying is an abomination to God. to angels , and to men , and that dull , lifeless are a little worse than that. A ttlo child once heard a strange minister pray with his head thrown backward , his nose pointing skyward , and with a loudness - ness as though eoven thunders bad uttered their voices , nnd she whispered In her mother's ear : 'Would ho have to pray BO loud if he lived nearer to God ? ' 'No , my iblld , the nearer we got to God the more ausqed are our volets. ' " | Not a Challenge. To the Editor of The BOB. I notice in your report of the ruin- sellers1 mooting last Friday night , that you state that $5 were offered by Aleck Obert to any temperance man present to toke the stand. Lost ; ho impression should go forth that wo of the other side , who were p'rosont , were afraid to accept ouch a challenge , [ will state that no such offer was made. The nfooosaid saloon keeper did say that ho would give $5 to any tem perance man who would convince him that prohibition waa right. } ( This tsak wo had no desire to undertake , as the gentleman's condition was such as to render it hopeless. I will further say that no invitaUon was extended to the prohibitionists present , to address the meeting. Yours for the truth , L W. TULtKYB. O.

A Oaso or Varlolold Reported nt the Transfer Causes a Flurry of Exoltotnont , Yesterday afternoon the report ol small pox in the city sped quick ! } along the street , and caused some little tlo excitement among the nomm * > inclined , as is usually the case , and at ia equally common the report proved to bo exaggerated. The facts are thai a man named William Snockmployod ! on the platform at the transfer , ha : been fooling ill for a few days , and yesterday Dr. Mucrao tvas called in , lie found the man not very sick , bui there were indications which led him to think it might prove to bo vario- loid , the disease being at that partic ular stagn when it is diilicult to determine - tormino certainly. Still ho thought il just to advise the authorities of hie suspicions , nnd did so , The case had not reached the infectious stage , but it was deemed best to make arrange ments at once to remove the sick man from the hotel to some place where ho could bo thorougly quarantined , and by fumigating the room , and thus taking prompt action , it is not thought that there can be any possi ble danger from it. Ilbw often persons have been annoyed by burnt clinging to their dress or cloth ing , and huw veldom have they , when cleaulnt ; them , given It a thoueht that JJurJocl : Hoot I * the most valuable blood cleanser nod purifier known , and U oold by every druKKUt under the name of lur < dock Dlood Uitteri , Prlct 81.00. 81.00.SOdlw WORRY IABOUTWEIGHTS. . The City Wolghor la Still Kept Walt- Ing for the Council to Act. Captain Williams , who was duly elected superintendent of markets , is still kept in a quandary ns to what ho shall do for scales. For years each wcighmastcr has purchased the scales of his predecessor nt $300 with a guarantee by the council that who ever should bo his successor would take thorn off his hands at the same sum. This loaves the council rather bouni to pay that amount for the scales , which by this timo-havo so depreciate' ' that they are worth logs than a hundred dollars. Some of Uio- aldermen nt first favored having on appraisal niado of thti value of tlio scales , nnd hnvo Captain William's tnko thorn nt whatever sum that should prove to bo , nnd the city to stand the ba'nco. Afterwards they changed their mind , nnd decided that Captain Williams should take the scales at $300 , and the city should reimburse him for any loss in disposing of thorn nt the end of his term of office. Captain Williams declines to take the scales , nnd if ho persists in this and buys a sot of scales himself , the city will find itself called on to pay $300 for on old pair of scales worthless loss than n third of that amount , and of no use to the city. It is suggested that if the council can afford to give B300 for sending two citizens to Washington on n pleasure trip , it can afford to pay $300 in possessing itself of a sot of scales , to bo owned as city property , nnd used by the superin tendent of markets , as other city property is owned by the city and jsed by the ollicors during their term of ollico. ADJUSTED BY AYJ&ESWORTH. A Number of Cases Disposed of In the Superior Court Yesterday. In the superior court yesterday a number of minor offenders had their cases adjusted. 'Cranky Bill" was brought up on n charge of vagrancy. The case was dismissed but another charge laid against him , it being that of the lar ceny of Bomo architect's tools. On this his attorney , John Lindt , pre sented the necessary affidavit for a change of venue , and the court , in stead of sending the case to Justice Fralnoy ns was naturally to bo ex pected , sent it to the district court. This was a surprise party to the attor ney , as it was the first time such a question had tcomo \ up. The court hold that it being a case in which it had final jurisdiction , itvas his duty to bend it to the district court , though in cases where ho sat as simply an ex amining magistrate the change would bo totho nearest justice. Lindt nt once naked for permission to with draw the motion for a change of yonuo but the state , by Mr. Scott , objected and ho was given until this afternoon to n showing in support of is request to withdraw the motion. The order of the court changing the case to the district court was just what the prosecution 'wanted , as it would enable the state to hold the prisoner hero until the meeting of that court , and give ample time for working up nonio othor'cases against him. E. C. Massey , charged with fighting on the street , had his case coutmuod. William Quinlan , charged with dis turbing the pouco and with being drunk , pleaded guilty to both charges and was given a total fine of $16. 0. Lomhorn , for being drunk , WOB assessed $3 and coats. Jack McGco , for disturbing the peace , found his bill to foot up § ! ) . The Harzman case was continued until Wednesday afternoon. John lieckloy , charged with allow ing low characters to lounge about his place , was ivon a continuance until the first Monday m May. A complaint was entered against Fat Lack for keeping his saloon open on Sunday. B. F. Ellsworth , of Silver Crook , appeared before the conrt with one eye draped , as the result of a little neighborhood difference of opinion , Ho avowed that ono Jasper Miller had threatened to shoot him on sight , and asked for n warrant for Miller's arrest. It-was granted. RISING TO EXPLAIN. Mr. Moore , tbo Contractor , Sayo Hla Say In Response to tbo Dissatis fied Teamsters. Mr. M. A. Moore , who has taken the contract for filling Main street , saya that ho can BOO no reason for the teamsters to bo dissatisfied , His side of the nlfair ia that ho has taken the contract at twenty-four cents a cubic yard , payable in general warrants , ono yard making about a load. Ho took rho contract chiefly for the purpose ot keeping his own teams employed , in- ptcad of making much money direct from the contract. The twenty-four cents which ho receives a yard-is pay able in general fund warrants , which in the ntarkot are now at about fifteen per cent , discount. Bo hires the teams at twenty cents a load , and proposes paying this in cash once in two weeks , so that the teamsters will not bp subjected to n discount upon what they receive. Ho says that if the teamsters want tlu-ir pay dally ho will do so , provided they will take the discount off , but if content to wait two weeks they can receive cash in full. full.Mr. Mr. Moore also says that some ot the teamsters have two wagons nnd ono team , and by hiring a man at 81. GO a day to load ono wagon while they nro loading the other , are able to pull out thirty loads a day , making $0 daily , and deducting the $1.50 , mak ing S4.50 not for the team and driver. For those reasons ho thinks that no complaint should bo made. PERSONAL ! W. W. Hamilton , of lUclne , was at tin Ogclcu yesterday. 1T. . Moyne lias so far recovered 01 to be able to be up and around.
