The AncAont Order of Hibernians are making' preparations which will Insure the success cf the great ball in Masonic h . 'll Tuesday evening March 17. A largo number from Omaha are expected to participate. The crossings on Main street at Fifth avenue and Story street have been a dls grace to the city. AH this season the mud has made them almost Impassible. Wouldn't it bo a good schema for Mr. Hardin to have them cleared ? Deputy Clerk Cramer telegraphed from Avoca yesterday that the term of court there was keeping him so busy that ho needed some more help in order to keep up with the records. Thirty cases on the docket in ouo term must make a teniblo rath. Yesterday was the month's mind of memorial aorvlco for Mrs. Ann McMen- ony , mother of Rev. Father McBIcnomy.

Taaicg the vote polled on Tuesday last In this city , with an Increase of 810 over those cast at the election on ( ho same proposition held a year ago , and allowing five persons to a voter , Council Bluffs has increased In population during the past year 4,005. Hugh Oliver la serving as night watch man at the Muonic building , being em ployed by the county to watch especially the records so that in case of fire they may bo rescued. With all lhls watchful ness the risk It great , and the people will never fool qnlto safe until the now fire procf court house with Its vaults , Is ready to receive the books and papers. There Is talk that Avoca is trying to raise some money to make a fight against the recent couit house [ election , and at tempt to get an Injunction or something of that sort to bother the county board , and to let the anti-court house folks down easy. The majority of noirly 2,200 is Buflicif ntly largo to show tbat the people want a new court house and jail , and that they will have it and those who oppose It might as well bow gracefully and good- naturedly to the will of tne majority , The throat U whispered that if the mayor really means to make war on tbo gambling houtcj , they will get back at him in a way which ( will make his hair stand on end. Just how they propose to do this does not teem clear. The mayor ono who ia not easily ( tightened , and ho noror attempts to cover up any of his act * , whether others think they ate righter or not , It la thoref ro n wonder what hold the g&mblora think they hare on him If ho waa a nan who frequented their places or occasionally gambled himself , or if ho was in the habit of placing himself under obligations to thit class of men , then they might possibly have get some hold on him. As It is , the maycr will hardly bo frightened by any threats. The largest attraction yet at the link. Bo Burp and see it Thursday evening , as it may bo the last of the season , Bookman & Co. , 525 Main ntreot , will wash and oil your harness cheap now. A DEADLY DOSE. A German Drinks a Pint of Whisky aM Dies ; Several Arrests Made , Considerable oxcltomcnt has boon caused in Cass county by the snddon death of a German named Henry Wollor. It appears that Waller lived at Anita , and another German of that place , Fred Grocck , gave him aomo whitky , and that Waller drank a pint of It at ono aittlng and then dropped over and died. The coroner's jury icturnod the following vordlct : We , the said jurore. find from tbo ovl- dpnco that the deceased , Henry Walter , died from the cffootu of alcoholic poison , and the alcoholic liquor which caused his death , was glvon to him by Frederick Goeck , who testified tbat ho purchased it at the store of Dr. llcber , in Atlantic , 0.

There seems to bo two theories , ono that there was some poisonous anbstmcp in the whisky , the other that the victim drank enough to kill an ordinary man , oven if the whisky had been good. Wal ler was 19 years of gc , worked on the section , and bad been in this country bul a short time. Goo.

The proclamation , or older of the mayor , as published in yesterday's BEE , directing the police to close all the gam bling houses , has caused no little amount of comment. Nearly everybody wants to know what It moans and why it means It , and when he means it , and in fact what ? It'a a puzzler , Ono theory Is tiat the little mayor , recognizing the demand for reform purposes , and to head off any other aspirants for public favor , thus Books to win applause by posing In the new attitude of a moral reformer , and thus keeping on the top of the wave. And the theory is that he is heartily disgusted with the result ol the last city election , and in a bit of boyish eplte , says "If you wan't reform , you shall have it with a vengence. If yon object to hav ing the young run the whole town I will swing to the other extreme and turn the city into a regular Quaker meeting , until you get sick enough of It , ana quit kickIng - Ing about loose morals. " And the theory Is that ho proposes to shut everything up , thinking that the "reform" alderman when they see the license money cut off , will yield to the pressure of tax-payera and cause the places to bo opened again , so that they will have the responsibility of those things instead of him. Another theory Is that the boys them selves want a little excuse for closing , BO as to repapor , and clean up for another year. In fact there ore as many different theories as there are men. A small portion tion of them give the mayor credit for any sincere personal doslro to have the gambling houses closed. In one respect citizens seem strangely unanimous , and that Is that if gambling must go on hero , that it must bo confined to sporting men ; that gambling houses shall not bo where boys and drunken men can flock In and lese their money ; that the games must bo conducted differently ; that cappen and pluggors must bo cleared out of town , and that the business mint bo restrained within some sort of bounds. Dr. S. Moshler , of the Sionx City Dhronio Disease Institute , will bo at the 3aott house in this city , Thursday , April 2d.

Yesterday the complete returns of the county wore received , showing that the propotitlon to build a now court house ws carried by a majority of 2,112 , and the prospects for a new jail by a still larger majority. This settles the matter beyond all shadow of any trouble. The county board meets next Monday to can vass the voto.

Thn fiscal year has closed and the city auditor has preparedhis report and given it Into the hands of the mayor for uao in his forthcoming annual motsago. Ono of the most interesting showings is the coit of running the city the past year , and by the following detailed state muut of the bills a'lowod by the council it appears ihat THE BEE was not out of the way in stating some time ago that It would reach $00,000. Old Sewerage Acct 8 5,781.50 Curbing 3,078.50 Sidewalk 1,173.75 , City Engineers 5,1277.73 City Property and Grounds 2,093.21 , Judgment 160. CD Printing 2.776.CO Bridges and Approaches 2,112.81 Parks 1,000.77 Gas Lights and Oil lamps 5,998.31 Damages and Condcmuatloiu 2,092.60 Fire Department 8,441.56 General Pund 11,758.47 Streets and Alloys 22,371.58 Pollco Department 13,180.98 Grading 1,910.00 Total 390,122.11 Fdr this $90,000 what his the city to show In the way of now pavement im provements ? Abont the only thing is the ? GOO police patrol wagon , for which the city has no moro use than for a silver tea sot. The wagon stands idle in the en gine homo , and what the city has to pay out ordinarily for drayage and cxpresssgo to haul drunken men into the station will hardly pay for the axle grease for the now wagon. By a glsnco over the items of expenditure above named , it appears that this wagon is about the only now thing gained. The other improvements of the city have been from special ascessments and special funds , and are not counted in the above report. The cash receipts to meet this $00,000 a year are about $59,000 , which includes the general tax levy and the receipts of the police fund. So at this rate of ex- .penditures some now policy will have to bo pursued in order for the city to keep from going further and further behind financially. There are now about § 18,000of general warrants outstanding , and the old bonded indebtedness of the city is $147,400. Besides this $215,000 of paving and sew erage bonds have been Issued and it will bo necessary to iesuo $25,000 moro. With those figures , as they are , it seems thnt the now council will have no easy task to shape matters to that all ends may meet and lap over if possible. There is the bright side , however , that Council Bluffs Is growing that in population and valuation of prop erty there is a steady Increase , and by a wise , economical , yet not nlggradly poli cy on the part of the new council this city can soon bo put In excellent condi tion. The people generally fool like en couraging the new council In all attempts to handle the finances wisely and well , and while thcro la no deslro to htop im provement and growth , yet there is a de sire that no extravagant or foolish ex penses bo made , and tbat the reductions , if any , be made along the lines which do not effect the growth of the city so great ly. In some respects it will be a tortu- nate year for retrenchment In city mat ters , for the building boom which starts off with nearly § 500,000 already in sight , will make Council Bluffs lively of itself , and there will bo no ex cuse for wasting city money under any pretext cf keeping the town booming. The Improvement of the creek so as to relieve especially thoto of the Fourth ward is the chief enterprise , of any special coit , which the city must do at once. Nearly everything else can bo paid for by special assessments. Were It not that Council Bluffs has such bright prospects ahead the city'a financial record for the past year would bo gloomy , but with the new council made , up of wise financiers , the confidence cf the people will bo strengthened and it Is hoped and believed that at the close of another fiscal year thcro will be a better showing and still brighter hopes. It is believed by many that the mayor , after ho has worked elf hia disappoint ment by a few fretful motions , will not- tie down to business and work with tbo new council in all attempts to keep ( he ship calling steadily on , and his irrespon sible enterprise will bo koptj within bounds by their wiedom , and if tbo coun cil gets too slow or conservative he will provo as a prod. Council Bluffs was never in a bettor shape ( o look financial figures and facts tquarely in tbo face. Afino organ , half price , at Beards' wall paper store , next to postoflico.
