The case of Sarah Turner versus the
Pottairattamlo county Mutual Insurance
company , has boon transferred from Milln
county to thin. It was a claim of § 350
loss on a building burned. The company
claims that the plaintiff represented on
taking out the policy that there was nn
other insurance on the building , which
the company says was not truo.
The neatest thing wo have seen in the
picture line lately is a picture painted by
Mrs. Dave Gates of Council BluIFe. The
picture was painted in a wooden bowl
and represented n forest in winter.
From the centro of the bottom of the
bowl , the sun was peeping over the tree
tops , throwing its raj s over a number of
door , -which were very neatly executed.
Joe Spaulding , the letter carrier , liiu
completed the canvass of his district for
the postal directory andia now on regular
duty. Ho has gathered up the names of
persons living in his district , and has
them neatly arranged in a little book.
Every letter carrier is to do the same so
that n complete directory of the city is
thus in their hands , and it will not only
facilitate the delivery of mails , but will
servo ii3 a convenience in learning the
whereabouts of any person whoso resi
dence is unknown to the enquirer.
The alderman had a throe-ring circus
yesterday. They mot as a board of
equalization , and took back most of the
proposed raicos of assessment , on the
complainants filing aflidavits that the
amount given to the assessor was correct
The ( proposed assessment of the banks
was also cut off. The aldermen mot also
as a board of health , and appointed Mr.
Siodentopf a committee to look up noinu
location whore all the garbage of the city
could bo .dumped. The aldermen also
merit as a council , audited a few bills ,
and adjourned until next Monday night.
Mr. Crook , of Honey Crook , who had
his thumb injured by n runaway about
ton days ago , died yesterday morning.
JBo wui a strong , healthy man , and the
injury was not thought to bo serious , but
a day or two ago it grow worse ; lockjaw
sot in , amputation of the thumb bocumn
necessary , and even that did notBiivehiu
life. It will bo remembered that soon
after the injury Mr. Crook had the mis
fortune of losing by fire his stern and
content * , while ho and his family barely
escaped with their lives. It acorns , in hit
cose at le&st , that trouble does not conu
singly.
The Nonpareil yesterday boasted thai
its Thursday's iasuo contained "ten sol it
columns of telegraph news. " The fact is
as any nno can see by looking at a cop )
of that date , that it had but 7J columm
of toll-graph , and also had 7A columni
filled with old stereotype plalea , which i
fails to mention. The DAILY HKI : on tin

THE BOARD OF TRADE ,
Ii Action on tlici Ittldgo 15111 nnil
the UnjiiHt Attnok on tlioOr-
The action of the board of trade tnkon
in i a mooting of April 14 , urging Con-
grcssman Pusoy to use his efforts to HO-
curing the passage of numo bill for a
bridge between this city mid Omaha , has
now called out a savage snarl ftom the
Nonpareil. It has boon commonly re-
purtud that its former editor , John W.
Chapman , is now in the employ of the
Union Pacific railway , using his onurgioa
to defeat nny mid all bridge enterprises
coming into conflict , with thu present U.
1 * . monopoly. Doubtless the action of
the board of trade is a stumbling block
to Ohapman's lobbying schemes , and nl >
tiiouuh ho has now no public connection
with the Council Dlulls organ of thu
Union Pacific , still the animus of thu
utuclc ) on the board of trade is so appar
ent us to appear to Imvo emanated from
this Hourco.
Because the board uf trtdo wants a
bridge between the two cities , the organ
of the Union Pacific in thin city calls on
the board to disorganize , and lot its
pluou bo tilled by a committee of five ,
wh i m call u citizen * ' meeting wliun mi }
nutiur of public interest needu diacuaaiun
or action. Who arc the men whom the
U. 1' . organ thus calls upon to giva up
tlioir organization ? Among tlium uro
many of the leading business -non of the
nty as will bo seen by the following
names :
J. P. Casady , llonry Euisonmn/Loon-

The organization is no star chamber , as
any reputable citizen who desires can
readily bo admitted to membership. The
excuse oiforod for the unaoemly attack is
that at the mooting at which the distaste
ful roiulutiona on the bridge matter wore
pissed , there was a amall attendance.
The attendance at most of the meetings
lus , it is true , boon too small by far , and
not onongh interest has boon manifested ,
which is true of many other organizations
ilso , but this mooting was called legiti
mately , a quorum was present , and not
only was the action in accordance with
the rules adopted by the man named
above , including three from the Nonpa
reil oflicn itself , but was also in accor
dance with the well-known viowa of a
largo majority of the members as ex
pressed in previous meetings.
On the 29th of January there was a
very full attendance , and the following
action was taken as shown by the min
utes :
"Tho Pusoy bridge bill having boon
made a special order for the evening , u
tppoinl rending of the bill was called for.
"W. P. Sapn , from the special comm
ittee appointed to draft a substitute for
the Puapy bill , submitted the Hepburn
bill , which was introduced into the 48th
congress , with recommendation that it bo
no amended as to change the names of
the incorporations , and to make the
bridge a combined railroad and wagon
bridge , and fixing the amount of toll to
bo cnargod.
' 'The Hepburn bill wan then read , and
the merits of the two bills were discuss
ed at length by momboiti of the board.
"J. T. Hurt moved that the substitute
oll'ored by the committee bo so amended
.is tit make the bridge n combined bridge.
Carried ; and all the amendments rec
ommended by the committee were ad
opted.
"Tho substitute was then referred back
to the committee , with instructions to in
sert the iimundmeiita , and when so inser
ted , to Bend copy to Mr. Punoy and ask
him to endeavor , if poasiblo , to secure
its paflaago. "
By Una and previous actions of the
oard , it is apparent that the majority of
ho boiird , by olliuial expressions , are in
'avor of n bridge between the two cities ,
nd tha organ of the Union Pacific cannot
ot around it by sneering at small at
tendance , and declaring that the board of
rado haa fallen into ill repute.
The three Nonpareil members of the
board should put in n personal appear-
tine * at the meeting , and make their ob-
'ections there , iimto.ul of acquiescing in
lie action by thuir absence and silence ,
; ind then , wc-iks afterwards , denouncing
ho body of which they are a part.
The board of trade needs some reviving
nlluunccs and ( roth inspiration rather
than ubuBo and disorganisation.
A glance at the records of the lant few
yeura the n Unit the board has boon
"nrjjely instrumental in securing and aid-
ng the most important impiovcmcnta
mule in Council Binds. Ita first aid in
the mutter of permanent public improve
ment was in the securing ot the boat ays-
torn of water works possessed by any
western city. It did much to secure to
this city the mammoth agricultural ware
houses which Imvo added BO much to the
name and prosperity of our city. It hits
been fort-most in the securing of a raited
grade for the ntreoia , ao as to secure a
y tciu of aeworago. It ban done the
rrntar part toward securmi ; the appro
priations for the now government build
ing hero. It took hold of the now opera
house enterprise and but for ita actions
and subscriptions that beautiful building
would probably have been still u thing ol
the future. It haa boon largi ly instru
mental in getting the main thoroughfares
of this city [ mod , and securing the need
f d Icgiilatinn f r the issuing of the nee
I'ssary bonds , etc. Those are some o
the more important matters in which i
has b on actively t > iiK4goil nnd to whtcl
it his giv ( n great help. AThoro are many
other enterprises winch the board ahouU
tnko I'ol.l of , and there should bo n

vices were secured for the occasion by
THE BKK. The attendance was very

inn BKF.hoo expressed often of late
ho ( It sire of many citizens to have open-
air concerts in the park , at least as often
us once a weak during the season , but
bus for there haa been no unity of action
> y which the necessary expenses of auch
rco concerts could be provided for with
certainty. TUB BKK , with its usual on
orpriao , therefore concluded not to wait
'or others , but to take upon itself the
expense of furnishing thn public at least
ouo enjojablo ovcning'a entertainment ,
ind inviting the whole public to attend
ireoly. It la to bo hoped that citi/.tns ,
cither personally or collectively , will
follow the example not by Tun BKE , and
[ irovido for other similar concerts.
Bayliss park ip u moit beautiful spot ,
and is BO convuniontly located that it af-
Fnrda a pleasant resort at the close of o
lieatod day , and by iho addition of music ,
especially such music as was given at

iioulthful pleasure can bo afforded thi

received many compliments on theii
