John Keller is propairng to build a throo-atory brick building adjoining the Masonic toinplo on the south. The mayor says the city is safe as long as such mon as Charles Nicholson are in the fire department. Perhaps so. Wm. Armstrong , the traveling agent wanted at Forest City , Missouri , is out on bail and his case continued thirty days. days.Tho The horse stolen from Win , Bentley , of Randolph , lost Sunday , was a brown pacer who could make n milo inside of 2:30. 2:30.By By the now time table the dummy train loaves on Sunday for Omaha at 9-30 and 11:35 : a. m. , and 2:30 : , 4:30 : , 6:35 : and 11:05 : p. m , All the churches commenced running on the now time table yesterday , the evening services beginning at 8 o'clock instead of 7:30.

The institution of the deaf and dumb proposes sending specimens of its educa tional work lo the national toachora' con vention , Madison , Wis. , next July. ' I' The alarm of fire f' Saturday night prov I 1 ! ' ed to bo a false ono. Both Tomploton and Walters turned out but as there was no occasion for work there was no con. flict between the two chlgfs. The Grand Army boys though grow ing gray mot Saturday evening and planned somouhat for gDocoration day. Department Gdmmandcr Millar , of Wat erloo , waa prosont/md gave a lively talk. The shooting for the prize of a silver watch , at the gallery on Broadway , was decided Saturday , the tie between Dr. Cook , 0. Westfall , undL. Harlan being ahot off. West ! ol won it. The Nonconformist , of Tabor , which .has had , Bomo financial troubles lately , has in ita platform now a plank that "all laws for the collection of debts shall bo abolished. " The city council moots this afternoon at two o'clock to hoar the dreary reading of Boveral pages of minutes , but will probably not attend to the other rogulai business until the evening aogsion. Omaha does not yet bring to the froni anyone to contest John Eponotor's claim of being the fastest ono milo and twc milo skater. Until some ono cornea tc the front , Council Bluflg claims the cham pionahip. , The voters hero insist on having ono o their number appointed to the polici force on account of a promise made t < thorn before election. Walters' succcs makes thorn have fresh faith in'Bucl promises. The Avoca , Herald says it is BO quiet ii that town that the good staid old deacon are fooled , and may bo soon cautious ! picking their way down book alloys wit fishing tackle in their hands , thinking i is Sunday. A man named Odoll got full of Avoe corn-juico and when he started for horn his mule team ran away , throwing hii out of the wagon and it juruig him badly. Ono of his ears wt nearly torn off , and ho Buffered seven thumps and bruises. Ohos. Harder has been arrested on .charge of obtaining money under fal : * . pretenses and will have a hearing to-da ; Mo was in the employ of Hayea & Glo 400 up to the first of April , and it claimed that ho collected a bill of M Bravm after that date , and pocketed tl ' amount. A yoang man who ranks rather tou ; and who deals sometimes in options , hi been getting himself in trouble ef late 1 giving checks in payment of bills whc . be kad HO aumey In the bank on which draw. He few settled up ono or two thew affairs and &aa thuajavoidod arrea but others are > aidvto bejpending. BO excuM now for dolayh iiw > clearing tip of tlte alley betwei P trl tre U , just south Broadway , and it is hoped Hint this sea von it will not bo allowed to bo used as r slop receptacle. The postofllco hours on Sunday are sr that none but the ungodly are given : fair show to got their mail. The office if open only from 1030 ; a. m. , to 12 , jusl the hours when the church folks are ox < pooled to bo in the pews , so that the prompt cnurch goer gets no chnnco foi his mail. Mrs. Wostcott , whoso husband is about to start a trunk factory hero , is annccorn plishod linguist , and at their old home in Oahkosh , Wisconsin , had private classes in Gorman and French and mot with much success. She is considering the advisability of organizing classes hero , There scorns to bo an excellent opening hero for such a teacher. Chief Tomploton has boon served with notices signed by the mayor and Alder men Mynstor , Goiso , James and McMahon - hon , informing him that 0. D. Walters is elected chief , and ordoiing him to turn over the property in his possession ; but ha refuses to do so , claiming that ho has not boon removed , has not resigned , and that Walters 1m not been legally elected. Jacob Noumayor opened his hotel on Broadway in flno shape Saturday evening with a ball , a big supper , and other requisites of a good timo. The hotel has boon so remodeled and built over that it is about the same as a now building , while the furnishings throughout are en tirely now. Ho will doubtless got hia full share of the public patronage , and is among the few men who know how to please the public in running n hotel. Mayor Vnughan denies that ho has ap pointed fifteen special police on account of the trouble in the fire department. Ono would infer from the denial that ho had not appointed any special police , but ho did appoint throe ono at each houso. Ho says that they had no in structions to interfere with the depart ment or its workings , but simply to pro tect property , as n water main had burst and there might bo n great firo. Rather gauzy. There was a little sport at the Driving park Saturday morning , and quite a gathering of spectators witnessed it- Littla'Sioux as reined by Charlie Wilson trotted a milo in 2:25 , without a skip or break. Lorono and Charlie B. had a lit- tfo brush , Lorono won the first heat in 2:31 : , and the second in oven bettor timo. Charlie B. broke badly in both heats. Wcstmount and Dr. Archibald also showed their gait and La Belle N. galloped - loped a milo in 1:51. : A late number of the St. Charles , 111. , C/ironialc contains on extended obituary notice of Dennis McCalloy , father o Dan. W. McCalloy , nf this city , who died at that place on the Idth of April at the ago of 84 years. All the children , seven in number , wore present at the time of his death , except ono son , who lives in California. The church speaks highly of his character and of his Influence. Ho has occupied several prominontfclocal of fices , was an enterprising business man , and at the time of his death owned and was working oSlorgo quarry. The interior of Mrs. E. Anderson's homo on Madison street has boon beauti fied'greatly of late by decorations and adornments dono.byMr. D. A. Benedict. The rooms present a very attractive ap pearance indeed , the woodwork being grained , the walls papered and the coilIng - Ing finished in oil , the designs being beautiful indeed , and the execution very okllful. Mrs. Anderson may well fool proud for such a house , and Mr. Bono diet certainly merits praise for the skill and taste shown , ho having done the work with his own hands. The rooms will compare in elegance and beauty with any in the city. The aldermen are blaming everybody but themselves for the agitation over the fire department , and the demoralization if the fprco. If it had not boon for the iction of the four aldermen themselves , would there have boon any such trouble , sortalnly not. They dolled the wishes ol the department , the wishes of the citi : ons , plutigod headlong into the oloctior if a political pot to fill an office , withoul rat removing the present incumbent , 01 loouring his resignation , and then the ] liowlod because they have two chiefs 01 heir hands , and "want ovorbody to koo * ] itill about it , and not make the fact mblio. Whatever may bo thought o , ho justice of either Tomploton or Wai torsaction , or-how much either or botli are to blame , the council cannot oscap the censure duo them for plunging th department into such etato 6f disorder. ' Mayor Vaughan wastes a half-columi of the Nonpareil in trying to induce thi public that all is lovely , and that the Tde partmont is in good shape to fight fire and citizens need have no alarm. Hi assuring words are all well enough , per haps , , ibut | it will iake , ? more thai Vaughn's aayaoto quiet the nerves of citizens izons BO long as there are two men [ claim ing the oflico of chief , and the department mont demoralized and divided by the at tiou of the council , In fact the counci ilsolf is divided on the matter , j hundred cards may bo published by Maj or Vaughan in the interest of his pel Walters , and yet the fact remains thi the city council by its huty Hl-adviso and grasping action has thrown the fir departtnentinto a condition which ma well cause cituons to fool anxious ac' t what protection there would bo in cat of a great blazo. Until Iho dcpartmer U working harmoniously again t'loro ' i causa for such anxiety. Flumes and tips colored , cleaned an eurled at J. J. Auworda & Co.'n , 31 Broadvray.

IB it a fact that a certain alderman , meau * the one who was instrumental i giving away Union Avenue , refuted 1 vole for Walters for chief until Vaughn had agreed to give him chairmanship of paving committee , or create another committee on paving for his benefit. Kow if this contract is carried out the important question with the tax payer is , who will nuffor , the city or the paving contractors ? Somebody must como down. TAX PAYF.U. 1'JMISONAU T. M.
