THAT Council BlulFa hna had n year
of grout prosperity , and great ad-
vancdmont Is evident from the show
ings ot facts and figures already given
in THE BKK. It remains with its citi
zens nnd business mon whether this
growth ahatl continue , or whether
there ahatl come stagnation and dc
olina. This city has al
most unparalleled railway facil
ities. It han many marked ad
vantages for manufacturing enter
prises and wholesale establishments.
Itlrcmains simply for Council Bluffs
to use its facilities and improve Its
opportunities.
This city is In condition to roach
out much further into the snrround
Ing country for bnnincts than It hai
yet done * and to draw trade hero
from a much larger territory than is
yet covered ,
In thus gathering In the business
which ought to bo tributary to Coun
ell Bluffa , all must conoado that TIIK
! | EE is an Invaluable help , of which
every brmlnosn man should avail him
aolf. Besides 1U largo local ctrcula
tion it finds Its way into almost every
nook and corner of n largo field , east
west , north and south , where Ha com
petitors are almost nnhoard of ,
The \rido awake and enterprising
business mon and manufacturers of
Council Blufii need but Jittlo more
than a reminder of THE BEE'H extensive -
tensive circulation to cause them to
realize that by no other advertising
medium can they so readily roach thu
trade which they tire socking.

The Finn * For the JFntnro-
Among the enterprise * inaugurated

was organized on the ! ) th day of Jan
uary last , by the election of Horace
Everett , president ; D. C. Bloomer ,

The rooms at No. 15 Pearl street

year , nnd the Library Baeociatton do
nated to the city all of Its books ,
caeon , furniture and fixtures , which
were placed in the rooms early in the
spring , and the llb'rary thrown open
to the public on the 24th day of last
April , and has been kept open since ,
each afternoon and evening , except
Sundays and holidays.
The trustees made their first annual
eport to the council last night , and
in it they state that the number of
persons who have visited It dur
ing this period has been eminently
satisfactory , and fully justifies
the expectation of these who
labored for its establishment ,
The report states that the reading-
room Is not as largo as ia desired
though It will acoomodato from twenty
to thirty persons very comfortably ,
and largo accommodations , It is hoped ,
will bo secured for it. The trustees
express many obligations to the pub
lishers of Tin- BEE , The Nonpareil
and Globe for copies of their papers
furnished gratuitously , as well as for
other donations.
The whole number of books on tha
catalogue received from tlfb Council
Bluffs association was 2,808 , the num
ber of books since purchased , 208 ,
and the number donated , GO , making
a total of 3,101 The number of pub
lic documents received from the
ibrary association was 1.127 and
number nlnco added being 40 , making
; ho whole number of books and docu
ments now on hand , 4,241 , oxcluiivo
of magazines and pamphlets nnbound.
No books have been lost from the
library , and none damaged , not fully
| ottlod for , beyond natural use and
vljar.
' The receipts hnvo boon $1,584.50
nnd the expenditures $1 328 02 , which
includes printing of catalogues , fit-
ing up rooms , etc. , which will not be
necessary expenses the coming year ,
The salaries and bills for Dfoomboi
will rvduco the cash on hand to $175
with which to commence the now year ,
No funds have yet boon received from
the library tax of 1882.
The number of persons who hav
filed regular applications for books ,
accompanied by a satisfactory guarantee
anteo for their return la G80 ,
The number of books taken from
the library are classified as follows :
Philosophy 114 , Theology 168 , Nat
ural Science nrd Fine Arts 242 , Fic
tion 5,345 , Poetry and Eways 1,123 ,
History and Biography 836 , Travels
475. making a total of 8,302.
The number of visitors to the li
brary nnd reading room has been 15-
173.
173.Ono
Ono of the most p'oasing features
connected with the practical work of
the institution Is furnished In the
largo number of pupils from our pub
lic schools who resort to it for the
-
purpose of consulting the books of
reference with which it Is supplied.
It thus becomes an important auxiliary
in the work of public instruction , be
sides fostering a salutary love for
reading in the whole community.
. The monthly reports of the librarian
show a gratifying improvement in the
. proportion of worka drawn other than
- thono of fiction. The demand for
more valuable and useful books ia decidedly -
- cidodly on the increase , and both the
librarians are recommending books for
perusal , nnd the book coramlttoo , in
the purchase of now booko , will
- steadily strive to cultivate the increas
ing tendency towards' higher nnd a
more instructive class of literature in
-
the whole community.
- The trustees suggest that It will bo
- very fortunate indeed , If the city
could furnluh the library In a public
building with more commodious quar
ters free of expense , where the danger
from fire would bo greatly reduced ,
and larger facilities scoured to the
public for the enjoyment of these op.
portunitios for Intellectual Improvement
mont which this institution presents.
The present * tax of one-half mill
loavoa to the trustees , after paying
nocooaaiy expenses , about § 100 per
year for the purchase of now books
and for supplyinit the reading room ,
The trustees suggest that an increate
. of ono-fourth of ono j'or cent would
add about $700 to this fund , and
could bo used to great public advant
| age for those purposes.
The terms of ollioe of Horace Ever
< ett , J. P. Oasady and Thomas Ollicui

will have to take action In regard tc
filling the vacancies

"Not many , considering the num

errors are made in receiving than
transmitting , and more by old opera

are extra cautious and soidom make a

"GivomuBoino Incident which you
happen to remember , taken aa ill
pasted over the lino. "
' It in difficult to recall them at will ,
but ono incident made such tin Im
precision on mo at the time that I have
never forgotten it , I was the night
rparator at a little station on ono of
the roads loading Into Cincinnati ,
There wns little to bo done except re
porting trains , and on that evening
there was nothing to break the mo
notony. The Cincinnati operator had
announced the doparturn of No. 5 ,
and for three hours all I had hoard
was the regular report aa the train
passed , reporting ' stations. Then
there was a press dispatch giving the
state of the river at ono ortwo points
when my attention was attracted by i
call from an oflico which is usually
closed earlier in the evening. To my
surprise , the call was answered , and
a message was announced for i
little town some distance from the telegraph
ograph oflico , with instructions to deliver
liver at once , rouardlcsa of cost. Thi
message was brief and in these words
'Mamie is dying ; come at once
signed with a single name. Who Ma-
nle was I had no idea , but I pictured
her iu my mind as a little girl , and the
message as from her mother to her
father. I found myself watching for
a return dispatch , and as the night
wore away I became anxious. The
train by which the father could reach
his djicg child would soon pass that
station. Would the operator remain
In the offica to send the answer which
I know would bo expected i About 4
o'clock in the morning I called his
oflico and received no answer. I knew
then that the operator had gone home.
As the hour approached for my
relief I became more anxious , and
asked thn day operator to watch for
the return dupitch. I wont to the
cflico earlier than neual that evening
and was given the dispatch for which
I had been waiting. It announced
the inability of the father to start be
fore that night , and asked for no we. I
then know instinctively that ho would
bo too late , and would never ECO his
child alive again. But I watched thd
wires , aud was reworded early in the
evening with the expected intelligence
that Mamie was dead. That was all
over know of the circumstances , but it
made a lasting improgeion on my mind.
I am not much on sentiment , and
would not have related this Incident if
you had not asked for something , and
I could romPinbor nothing else , Some
other time I may glvo you something
better. Call and see me often , and
I can give you anything interesting
will bo glad to do so. "
