Ono youne man , who was to servo as : special policeman yesterday , took his whisky straight but couldn't crrry it straight , and so the appointment was re scinded before ho had a chance to servo.

A brakeman named Spandonberg , at Missouri Valley , Saturday , gotcanght between twoon two cars of lumber and had his head smashed so badly that there is little chauco for bis recovery. Ho was thought to bo dying yesterday. Many in the city will bo saddened at learning of the death of little Jakio , the aon of J. T. S to wart , which occurred at an early hour yesterday morning. Ilo has bnnn ill for some weeks , but was thought a day or two ago to bo bolter , and hopes was entertained that ho would recover , but ho crow suddenly worse and death came. Little Jakio was about 11 years of ago , and ho and his little pony were familiar to the whole community. Probably no little follow of his ago was ao widely known hero as ho , and ho was a general favorite with all. His death is a terrible blow to the family , but many others will join in their sorrow that ono BO fair and promising should thus bo Ukon. Order hard wood of I . Overtoil. L. 0.

No Bloofl RnnniDH Down the Streets anil No Great Slanghtcr , A Few Arrests for Illegal Voting But Good Order Prevails. The Democrats Oapturo the Oity By Several Hundred , The ItcturiiM From Outflitlc These who were BO loud iu predicting that Council 1luff's ! would bo a scene of riot and bloodahcd on election day ahunld heartily bo aahnmod of thomaolvoa , for they IIATO given the city a black eye , and all for naught. Although political mat * tora run hot hero yesterday , and there was a strong fight and much enthusiasm shown , yet the crowds at the polling plncoa were orderly , and considering the intensity of fooling , and the noavy vote polled , tltoro were very Httlo disorderliness - linoss iudood , and Council Bluffs put to shame ill dofamera , and such a nervous old grandmother na the Nonpareil will probably never coaao blubbering for protection at the hands of deputy United States mar shals and sheriffr. Mayor Vaughan put on the following special policemen in addition to the reg ular force , stationing Gvo at each polling place making twenty in all : Jacob Frank ? , Joseph Walker , John Wnlkor , Clinrlos Bloomer , and James Hill at the First ward ; Frank Burr , Win. McGlaughlin , Michael Glonghsoy , Chria Doughorfy and Fem Conway at the Second ward ; Charles Flolfor , Win. Loftui , Conrad Klein , i Lolbold and George Wolltvor nt : ho Third ward ; L. P. llutton , G. W. Dallon , Dan Farrell , Thomas McCauley , ind B. D. Webster at the Fourth ward. Thcso men were armed with revolvers t Sorgt. Bates being made thu keeper of ho arsenal , ho distribntlng the nrma and fcoping the record of them. The voters wcro kept well in line at the polls and there was not the usual iinount of pulling and crowding. The saloons of the city were kept itrictly closed during the day. Not only were the orders of the mayor very strict n regard to thi ? , but the saloon mon hemselrcs seemed ioco-opperato wilHng- y In having the order obeyed , it being tj heir interest to do so , and they having he shrewdness to realise it. To have lone otherwise , would have increased atbtr than diminished the opposi- ion to the saloon business. During the T lay there was hardly a man to bo soon rho was under the influence of liquor , .nd while there were some who doubtless ot their drinks , still , for an election day , here was so little drunkenness na to beery ory noticeable by its absence rather ban by its prosouco. i The bands were , of course , out and ausic enough and to nparo was furnished ach polling placo. Vehicles of all aurta ' roro running backwards and forwards iringing in the lame , the aged nnd the coblo ones. Mr. George Koclino and ilr. John Hawthorne , two of Oouuo 1 Jluffa' beat citizens , were brought to tlio ) olls. Mr. Kuolino has boon 111 for vookn nnd lluwthorno is sulioring from ho ctfijots of an accident. Poor Jim inoddorly , who was atabbed in n row at ifotcalf's saloon recently , was also able o be brought in a carriage to give his oto. The fact that $100 reward had boon of- 3rod for the detection and conviction of nyono buying or selling a vote , or for nynno voting illegally , doubtless had a ilutary oiroot. There were n few arrests lado. Ono young man , named John ) abori ) , who -works for J. T. Gouldon , aa arrested nt the second ward on the ( hargo of illegal voting. It was claimed tiat ho had not lived hero long enough B vote , and by othera that ho was not of go. The former ohargo was formally led , pud nftor being locked up for n hort time Judge Ayloaworth admitted im to bail in the sum of $500. dines P. Gouldon being his bondsman. ' L few minutes nftor his release , Deputy ; J. S , Marshal Vorinillion , who was in hoci'y ' , nrrontpd him again and took lint bufnro United States Commissioner Jcorgo F. Wright , who admitted him to tail In the sum of $200 , Gouldon again oing hia bond. Vermillion was the only leputy United States marshal hero. As nest know , ho is u regular , and not op. rotated specially for the election. Two ithor regular deputies , II. J. Duncan ind Mr. Allen wcro to bo hero , but ono vas sick and the other failed for aomo thor reason to report bore. A man was arrested for certifying to Dihamo'a certificate , by which the latter iought to swear in his voto. The party manngorasont messengers to lach polling place from lime to time to oad telegrams , cheering on the vntora. Most of thoan telegrams were evidently mrtlsan , and wcro very contradictory , nit each was greeted with enthusiastic ihoora from those whoso pymputhiea ihanced to bo along the line of the news . lvon. The congressional contest excited fully is much interest hero as the prcmdoutla ) , t wns conceded long before sundovrn .hat the democrats had carried the city , t being only H question of how inuoli. Before the polls closed estimates of tlio s lomocratio majority in the city were from -100 to 800. The second ward polls closed at 0 j'clock , there being no proclamation inndo ut the opening of the polls. There were 880 votes polled out of the ! )10 ) registered. The total vote in the other wards win First , ( iOJtj Third , 021 , and Fourth 1)08 ) , making it total vote iu the city of I ! , 108 , The count wns very clew and at 11 o'clock the prospect was that it would not bo ( inished before morning. The mayor nnd chief of police are ror tainly entitled to great credit fur the or derly manner in whio > the day passedli The mayor had instructed his specials not to interfere in any way , or tuku any part at the polls beyond voting , and preserving - serving quiet , and they seem to Imvo obeyed the inntructions slriotly. There t was u patrol waann at each pulling place , 90 that if needed the whole of the force sould be epccdlly gathered iu any ono place where they were needed. Lnt evening the republicans gathered in Misnnlo hall to gut return mid the Jemoorats at the opura houio. The Mn < lonio hall was crowded , and iniicli i-n- ihusiamn 'iown ' , doapiiu thu diioouraginp reports.

Some ono sung out inviting the Lyman mon to come down to the opera liouso and got their money taken , but as the latter did not move the Puacy mon went into the corner and covered $180 of the $300 which Lyman's men wanted to bet. No odds were givon. At the opera house , which WAS opened as democratic headquarters , there was a vast amount of cheering and shouting , but no speeches by the prominent men , though the crowd was confident Iho dem ocrats had carried everything. The fol lowing reports were received , ami loudly cheered : MINDKN 78 majority for Pusoy. Democratic cain of 8. NKOLA CO majority for Pusoy. WESTSICE 1 majority for Lyman. Democratic gain of 52.

An old negro , who is very short and ao it as the traditional Alderman , put his oad into the forward cabin of a Cort- indt street ferry boat in Now York a ay or two ago and looked warily about , 'very seat was occupied and ono or two crsons were standing near the door. lo took off his hat and ntorod softly on tiptoe , bowing nth great courtesy as ho moved toward ho paddle box. Ilia head was almost aid and wont up to a curious point at the enter. His eyes had n peculiarly foxy ook , and ho smiled to himself as though njoying a great joko. Ho took up a osition by the paddle box where he ould command a view fore and aft , and aa evidently keeping a weather eye pen for the dock handa. Every once nd a while ho put his hand up to his louth in an apologetic way and chuckled cry far down in his throat. If ho apponed to catch the eye of any f the passengers at such a mo- lent ho winked with intonao meaning id chuckled louder than over. When 10 boat moved out of the slip ho gave no moro searching glance toward the oors , and then , fixing hia eyes on the r oiling , began to vrhistlo "Tho Mocking lird. " The poopio stared at him in inazomont. It sounded like a full-toned ute In the hands of u good player , 'hero saomod to bo an Immense range to , and ho wont from deep ba a tones to 10 sharp and shrill piping tones f a piccolo. First ho whistled the tune irough carotully , and then toll ) giving it nil sorts of varia- ions. The notes wns through the place udly , and when ho had finished he wan igoroualy applauded ; then ho wont elf t u rattling rate and whistled a dance mo , and then fell back again to imitating irds. As ho did ao ho took oil' hia hat nd began to boiv and wink at the poopio. i'j ho approached the first man in the no of seats ho whistled und gurgled in lis throat in a coaxing and cooing , ray , which was varied with "chic , hie , uhio , " coaxlngly. The nan laughed , wont down In his locket , pulled out a coin and dropped it u the old mini's hat. The latter then mrst into a joyous bit of melody , some * hlng uftur the style of a carol ot a cana iry bird. Than ho coaxed the next man , ind BO on , until ho went completely .round the cabin. Only two men ro- usi'd tc pay him , and ho must have undo nt least $2 by the time the boat a tided. His face has long been familiar to Now I'prkura , both on the East Kivor , North liver and Coney ( dund ferryboats. Ilo known aa Whittling Joe , and it is said hat hi the colored community ho is u nan of Importance. Another negro , who earns his living tartly after this fashion , but who is not , ot known , is very hlim , dresses well , and f ma an alloctcd manner. Ono afternoon hero was the usual crowtl on the corner if Twunty-third and Broiulway , when his young fellow cumo along. Without my warning whatever ho took ill his hat in the midst of tha crowd , hrow his oliiu in the air , and began o warble after the style of a Tyrolean. Jo warbled beautifully , and the people icguu to gather around him until the pa- ice thought it nccoesary to disperse the irowd. As the young colored man passed iliing in obodiunco to the policeman's irdora ho continued to smile , warble and lold out his hat. Coins were touted into from all quarters.
