> J G. II. Nicholas came to the surface
ngalu ye > terday as complaining witness In
the State v ? . M. K , Wuatherbco. It was
before Justice Sohurz , After the evidence
was all In Justice 8. thought it not suffi
cient to bold Weathorlieo on , and the brief
bitterness ended.
A complaint was entered before Judge

torneya Wright and Dilly went nljo , the

in the discharge of Jones , no prosocutlnp
wltnoaa appeariag.
In the latest Idiom It behooves the
city authorities of Council BlufTj to be
hoove themselves with reference to the
Impending ihods. The gutters in most
parts of the city are about large enough to
carry off the tears that will bo shed In the
event of a sudden thaw. Citizen * of the
Bluffs , suppose the drizzle of Tuesday bad
grown Into a heavy rain. Wo cannot tell
how soon the water will rise. "If it were
done , 'twere well and it were done
qnlckJy. "
Rev. Henry McMeeftin has been engaged -
gaged by the Presbyterian church to sup.
ply Its pulpit for the next throe months
lie has lately been In Oeceola , Nebraska ,
strengthening a young society there nnd
building a new church , a work In which
ho has had much experience. Most of his
ministerial life bai been spent in Canada ,
and since leaving there he 1ms been en
gaged largely In miadonary labors In I1H.
neb , Iowa and Nebraska.
Corn is on the climb , Farmers con
versed with yesterday on the subject all
have sanguine views on the future price of
this cereal. Shippers have put the price
up to 35o nnd , gay the producer ? , feeders
rmiet go higher In order to get their corn.
A giizzled tiller of the cell at the con
junction of Main street and Pearl , cracked
his twelve-foot whip-lash at the gutter aud
observed : "Yes , corn Is riz , but It'll be
rlzzer nor It Is. The Bluffs Is a good mar
ket and I reckon the BlunVll get my
kernels , but she'll have'to boom , young
man , she'll have to boom , "
Oar reporter called on Welghmaster
Honn and asked him about the hay bull-
ness. "Illgbt" said ho interrogatively.
"That's It , " rejoined THE BEK , and we 1m.
mediately wout into committee of the
whole on the question of cured grass. Mr ,
H. weighs twenty tons a day upon an av
erage that is , on his scales. Last Mon
day and Tuesday ho weighed over 80 tons ,
all sold and consumed In [ Council lllutl * .
Nearly all of this hay comes from the
Missouri bottoms just south of the city ,
if , Yesterday as high as 87 a ton was paid or
the atrcet.
Sheriff Dan Farrell wrote to Chle !
Field the other day to look out for a ono
armed man , who had a little daughtei
being cared for In one of Council Blulfi
best families , and who was determined ti
ratio trouble and get the girl away , thougl
he was unfit to take care of the girl , botl
financially and morally. Yesterday th
man appeared here , and by chance he mo
the little plrlon Broadway and tried to ge
her to go with him. As father and daugh
ter stood talking on the street her cryln ,
and protests attracted the attention o
some who knew the circumstances of th
itlrl's life , and Interfered , and despite th
threats of the man the little girl was take :
back to her charitable home.

CITY AND COUNTY.
Their Alleged History in the
Form of a Ton Dolhr
Book ,
The Good and Bad Streaks
Pound Bttwoon the Lido.
The now hlitory of Pottawattnmle
county has just boon isaucd by Bankln
& Co. , and la bolng distributed here
to subscribers , not all of whom Hoom
oa ready to take the book and pay the
$10 asked for it , as they were lo uub-
Bcrlbo for It on the promise of what It
was to bo , as pictured by gllb-tonojued
canvassers.
The volume aa It appears in fact
does not seem io moot the oipoctatlono
of some of the subscribers cither In
quantity or quality. Perhaps they
expected too much. The book In fact
is of royal octavo nlzo , containing
Gil pages , of which 301 are given lethe
the history of this city and county and
277 pagca to blograpHcil nkotchoa.
The book seems to bo well
bound , the paper good , and the
typographical appearauco quite favor
ablo. Even at a glacco onu iindn nomc-
typographical errors which ought not
to bo fonnd in a work supposnd lo bt >
BO OArofully prepared , the words , "at-
lornor" iiistoad of "attorney , "
"stanch , " "also" for "also , " "fxton
slvoly1 "sings" for "signa , " otc. In
many places matters of an entirely
dliforont nature are run together in
the same paragraph , giving u gentle
start to the innocent reader , who
without the olightoat warning finds an
account oi Dr. JcffriV lottery scheme
running into a statement of the pub
lic eohools , and thu statement of the
action taken for the relief of suflorors
by the Chicago fire closing with on
obituary notice of a worthy citlzon.
There surely cannot bo the ozciiao
of hasty preparation in a wotk of thlo
kind.
The illustrations in this work arn
quite good , but they are not very nu
merous. There arp portraits of N. J.
Bond , P. T. Brosoo , A. S Bryant , J.
P. Caoaady , E 1 Clayton , B. B. Clay
ton , G M. Dodge , J A. Jackson ,
John Keller , Joseph Ktinttj , Dr. Ma-
crao , nnd George F. Wright , while
there ii bat ono city building and ono
country dwelling gi\on a placo. Only
twelve men In the whulu county , and
two buildings worthy of being shown
up ! Alan for Pottawattamio county !
A glance through the history proper
shown that much intoresticg reading'
matter and many valuable laota have
boon thus gathered and placed in per
manent form. Tuo hiatory of this otty
ban boon irrltton by Colonel J , II.
Koatloy , nnd the chapter penned by
him Hoom .worthy of much praioo , thu
material having been well oeloctodand
well handled. The oolonol is H grace
ful writer , nnd ho ban given the work
a number of very Interesting chapters
An already stated , a largo portion of
the book la devoted to "blographlpnl
okotchos" so called. Llko most works
of the kind , this portion of the book
Impresses ono as consisting of a rcesa
of praise and advertisements for pat-
ronfl of the book , without regard to
the prominence or record of the per
sons BO selected. There are somn
biographies which aeom justly entitled
to a place in a $10 book of this dig
nity and importance , but many which
are not. In thla volume there Is one
noticeable omlnulon of many of tno
really prominent men and old sattlern
of the city and county , whllo many
given space whoao names arc qnlto un
heard of outaldo of a limited circle of
business and friendship.
There are many ludicrous features
In the biographical portion of" the
work , Of onu man it records the
startling fact that ho keeps n flno
stock of fnrnlturo , crockery and glass
ware , ana "his family are all nt homo. "
Biographical akotchoa are given of a
bank and of oevcral grocery storee ,
millinery shops , livery stables , otc.
Of ono doctor it is stated that , "Ho
la now tjormanonlly located in Council
Blufla , with the intention of going to
Ornaoa In course of ono year to make
that his headquarter * .
Ono attorney is given the credit of
bolng at present "edltor-ln-chhf of
The Daily Monitor , n republican or-
Kan recently founded in Council
Bluffs. " What " "
the
"Monitor" la , or
where or how It over came Into life , no
ono hero Is able to any. Such a paper
bolng a myth.
Ono grocery house ia given a pocnl.
lar biographical sketch , The honao
haa ainco failed , Porhapa the thought
of anch a akotch killed It. Porhapa
the buplncua policy indicated In the
sketch did the work. It roads "Ho
now carries about $5,000 worth of
stock , and from present prospects his
annual Bales for the prcsont year will
amount to abont $1000,000. Ho em
ploys three men in his establishment ,
and keeps nlno men on the road , nnd
expects aoon to Increase his force of
travelling men , "
Such nro the samples gleaned by a
hasty glance nt this 810 book , nnd
nnny moro could bo culled by leisure.
With the exception of the few chap
tors by Col. Koatley the book will
probably disappoint thoao who have
expected much of thla work.
It Is well that so mnoh valuable his
torical matter haa boon preserved in
book form , but It la to bo regretted
that there was not more and bolter
material to fill Ita pages. It la alao to
bo regretted that so much of the book
la taken up with "Blnah , " and that BO
many pagea boar the marks of having
boon devoted to puid advertisements ,
