Mindomakor & Van , the contractors builders , are about concluding several contracts for important building improve ments. Mr. Bixby is putting in ntandpipes nnd fire protection in Stewart's packing ' home , the work being extensive nnd complete. P.

They were on the bottoms am' were causing considerable commotion yesterday. Stllo Bates , who was arrested for dis turbing the ponce , ho having had a row with Bill Cupp in Bokompor'a saloon , was yostorany fined $9.GO.

Davis , who lives n short distance out , has boon born a girl Mr. Rood , who is employed at Howe A Son's ' , has a brand-now boy ; and Charlo Frisby , who is in the employ of Deere AVells & Co. , also has a now boy. The ordinance forbidding the driving of cattle nlong streets which nro pnrkct seems to bo wholly lost sight of. Cattl thus driven along are npt to gob out o the roadway nnd cut up sod nnd brca foliage before the drivers cm interfere A few fines would remind the careless o the existence of the law. B. B. Mann , of the Mutual Rosorv Association , of Now York , furnished Tin BKE with n partial list of the business h has taken since his arrival in Counci Bluffs. The list is found in another col umn , and worthy of attention , as it show the confidence that some of the best bus : nes3 men have in the company , nnd thi approval of this firm of insurance. Tli matter is well worth invosligation. Thomas McGeor , a constable from No ola , was here yesterday hunting for Join Hunloy , the blacksmith , who nome tim ago claimed to have boon robbed of § 80 in gold , which ho had hidden in the bellows lows of his blacksmith shop. It i claimed that Hanloy in wanted to answo to a charge of being too itimato with o Danish girl. The constable wan informed od that Henley was at work at , Glen wood , and started there for him. A dotcctlvo association lias been formed mod with oflico iu the Masonic temple A. F. Clnttorbuck is the manager , Goo Hdga , the assistant , and 0. E. Boswic the secretary. These gentlemen are a well known hero , and all three nro experienced poriencod officers , who huvo had much t do with the capture of criminals and re covery of lost and stolen property. The will doubtless find plenty to keep tlioi busy. * Council Bluffd has an opera house o which it is and should bo proud , an with some good scenery and n few nt ditional improvement * the opera hous would compare favorably with that o any city , The lack of good scenery i felt at orory entertainment. Much o the time there is virtually no orchestr cither. It Is to bo hoped that in mutio programmes , and tconio oflbot there wll bo improvement ere long. A girl named Minnie Foster , with strong temper nnd a weak virtue , hnu little altercation with A Barnstoin , on Jiclpcd him logot outof the house in voly manner , lie went before Justice churz nnd filed complaint , charging the irl with aseaull. On being nrrcstrd she loaded guilty , nnd was fined Su and jsts. Paid. J. W. Kinsoy , ft painter , was arrested cstorday by Oflicor O'Brien , on the hargo of larceny. Ho had been board- ig with W. H. Mayweed at Strootsvillo , nd aa several articles had boon missed , ncluding several rings nnd omo money , trap was sot , n silver dollar marked M. V. being part of the bait. On being nr- cstod nnd searched , this marked dollar 'as found upon ivlnnoy'a person. None f the other articles missed were found. I ? . Ilussoll has filed n complaint before uslico Schut ? charging Ed. Phillips rith n mayhem. It is claimed that 'hillips took a Into off ono of RussqU's ingorn in n little low in which they were ndulging. The case was continued until next Monday. THE DESERTED BABE , Some Now UclntltiiiH ConccrnltiK tlio Woman Who Now Admits tlio Mollicr , Tin : BII : : on Monday contained the ollowiug among itn Nebraska news terns : "Upon the complaint of Misa Hello 3rooklngB , of Tokaina , Mr. W. II. Clark , of that town , was bound ever to , ho district court on the charge of bas- nrdy. Tin's is the lady who was nrrost- ed nt Council BlulFd about three weeks igo for abandoning her child. She then , 'avo her name as Mro. A. W. Denton , and claimed that aho was not the mother if the child. " The little ilom has caused quilo a stir ring ui ) of what wna at the time quito n sensation. It will bo remembered that ho young lady when arrested here ad mitted that olio had left the babe on the looretop of the house whore it iras found jut explained that in coming in on the Tain from a visit to n family named Mc Donald , living near Rod Oak , a woman who was a stranger to her , naked her to lold the baby a minute , nnd did not como back , and not knowing what to do with the child , flho loft it as described. Other atatomonts were made , including the ono that eho was onclonto , and could : iot bo the mother of the now-born babe. The prosecution of the casp was dropped in a manner which cansod TUB Bin ; to criticize the iandllng of the case , rather sharply , and in turn THE IKE waa taken to task by these concerned , who ooomod to have need ; oed deal of confidonou In the girl's stato- nonts. The father of the girl came to ; hia city to openly rofnto nil charges nnd vindic.ito her character. II o was puchoJ for by ono or two prominonl citucns here who know him , and his reputation for truth and voracity , nnd ho created an impression in hia daughter's "avor , nnd much sympathy for hor. The babe in the meantime was loft at .ho Ilomo for the Friendless , where it still remains. It now appears that soon after the woman was here , correspondence waa opened to find out whore the child waa and how it waa being cared for , evidencing nn unusual interest in i child which according to her story hat boon loft on her hands by a stranger. It now appears that when aho was in this city aho wus not nlono , but that a man was here also , and that ho wna the ono who wrote the letter , and plannoc the scliomo of desertion. It is intimated that the man who was hero waa the fath er of n young man , who is aupposud by some to bu the real father of the chile instead of the ono arrested , and thai there will bo BOIUO moro developments to Btnrtlo the people of Tokamah. AVhilo the quoatlou of paternity is being nottlct it seems that if the maternal roaponsibil ity is admitted , the least that the younf , woman nnd her folks could do would bo to take the babe to their own homo , nnd relieve the Homo of the Friondlcas of its support and cnro. It is said , how ever , that the parties concerned are BO well fixed financially that they are no only able but willing to pay for its keep ing horo. Still , there is a hcartlossuos about it that seems in keeping with the manner in u Inch the babe was left on th doorstop. TUENINf ( A TEIOK , A IMtlxviiulcoo German Iluyn $ . "Worth of Kxiioflonco , Jtonday afternoon another confidonc game was played here , or rather , an ol cjamo was played ever again. The victii this time was n Gorman from Milwaukee who hud boon out in Nebraska , and hat returned so fnr as this city , intending t try and got work on some farm in Iowa At the transfer ho met two men , am getting aoinoivhat acquainted with them came up town. Ono of the stranger represented that ho was n farmer , mn thnt the other was a iniin who had bean in Ill's employ. The hired man wa about to Jeavo him , and the funno was to pay him oft' , and lot him go. Thi gave an opening for the Mihvaukoo Cor- man to hire out , and the farmer made n bargain with him to take the place tliu liift vacant. The farmer in paying o ; the man who was to leave was a littl short of currency , but had plenty in th bank , of course , and would t'io ' nowl hired man lund him n littlu till ho coult got it The Milwaukee German wus Urn induced to hand ever § 1(5 ( , which th farmer paid to the "old hired man , " wh departed satisfied. The now employe and now employed look n glass of boo together , and the employer stopped eve to the bank to draw aomo money. Fo some mason ho was delayed so ho did no got back as soon as was ovpoctod , and th German , getting tired of waiting won back to the transfer , thinking ho migh bo thoro. Ho did not find him , and the ho interviewed the polio ? , who oponec his oyoa to the fact that ho had boon con iideucod.
