The oaio of "the triplets" against Matt
Knhl comes np before one of the trio ,
Justice Fralney , thli morning. There Is
much interest felt ai to what tbo outcome
will be , as tbo statements of the two
sides of the affair differ greatly. There
Is talk of having the matter compro
mised , but in view of the many state-
meuti made the triplets can hardljr af
ford to have the matter drop In silence ,
nnlois they have really done something
of which they are ashamed. The public
chould be convinced by a trial and show
ing of all the details just who Is to blame
in this affair , it having attracted so much
attention , and excited BO much comment
Already. If the prosecution weakens it
will bo looked on M a virtual admission
that the trio , who were mlxad np In It
were voryb&dly mixed.
There were special services at the

tor Mary Nicholas. There was solemn

lor. Father McAleese sub-deacon.

ouchtng address , in which ho reviewed

Miss Helen Potter , the celebrated elo
cutionist , hat boon spending a few days

Naughton and family. She is on her way
a Tabor to give an entertainment there
under the auspices of the college. Last
evening Mr. and Mrs. Horace Everett
throw open the parlors of thalr spacious
residence to a gathering of friends , who
were given an opportunity to hear this
wonderful artist In a number of her so
actions. The Informal entertainment
was a treat indeed to these
present , and the praise expressed
ndlcatod that if she could bo secured for
a public entertainment hero she would
surely bo gro3tod by a largo and onthusl
astlo audionco. This lady Is not to bo
confounded with the Potter sisters of
this slate , who give very fair elocutionary
entertainments , but who are not to com
; > are to Miss Helen Potter , who has gain
ed a national reputation in this lino. It
Is to bo hoped that advantage will betaken
taken of her presence in the west , to
liavo her give ono evening in this city.
An excellent "ham" story is told on
Frank Swan , and Manager Brown , of the
telegraph office. A telegram was received
from F. H. Whitney , of Atlantic , asking
Swan to send him at once a "good ham
canvasser , " and the telegram duly deliv
ered , but Swan reading it hastily , and
having frequent orders from Whitney ,
thought ; that ho wanted "a ham can
vassed , " and although ho thought it queer
that ho should order just ono ham ,
ho picked ono out and sent it
by express , instead of sending a man to
canvass for ham. Brown the next day
asked Swan if ho had sent the bam , con
sidering the joke ono worth twitting him
about. Swan , who is a llttlo deaf , did
not understand him , and simply replied
"yes , " and nothing more was thought
about it by Brown until on going home
to dinner ho found that a fine ham had
been sent up to his house by Swan ,
Knowing that there must be some mis
take , ho interviewed Swan , and found
that Swan had understood him that ho
wanted a bam , and so ho sent it. Swan
says that any one who says "ham" to him
is going to get one , and he does not pro
pose to lot any chance for business slip
by.
The mayor simply laughs at the reports
of his presenting his phenominal card to
President Cleveland. Ho says that it
was not the peculiarity of the card which
gained for him an audience , but a letter
which ho had from Senator Garland , and
other promlnents. He feels greatlyplcasod [
that the card has attracted so much at
tention , as he thinks it an excellent ad
vertisement for the city , and he believes
In advertisements. Ho says that if a
man has got to bo an Idiot even to adver
tise the city , he is willing to be ono
anything for the noising abroad the facl
that there is ouch a city as Council Bluffs.
He says that the Interview published In
the BEE just before his departure
for the east so clearly pre
sented his views on the prohibitory
question that ho read it to the president ,
and to some of the members of the cabl
not , and they were much interested in it
He says that ont of 300 callers on the
president he was ] the only ono thatjwaa
recognized , and spoken to , the presldcn
contenting himself with simply shaking
hands with the others. At another time
ho had a whole hour talk with Cleveland
In fact ho was trotted with a good doa
more consideration than some of those
would bo who stand so ready to make fun
of his trip. Ono thing is certain the ;
found out that ho was in Washington.

TBOUBLE AT TABOB ,
A Qnccr Violation of the Prohibitory
Ijv by the College Boys.
A little storm is reported on threaten'
ng the ninal peace nnd harmony of Tabor
college , and some of the students arc
anxiously awaiting their fate , the decrees
not having been given out by the faculty.
Some of the young men have been got-
Ing a little wilder than the college dis
cipline allows for. Thoyjhavo beon'broak- ,
ng the rales forbidding the playing of
cards , and the use of tobacco , and while
hcso violations of college law are bo
ng adjusted there comes J ] to
Ight a still more serious cause for
discipline. It seems that one of the pro-
"osaors had In the collar of his house
some nnfermontod julco of the grape , ln <
.ended for sacramental purposes , nnd In
; ho laboratory was koptn quanty of , alco-
liol for U3o in scientific work. The boys
managed to got hold of both those In-
grodionta , and from their mixture got a
preparation , which they used neither for
iacramental nor scientific purposes. This
violation of the prohibitory lair , nnd the
disregard for the moral requirements of
; hla excellent educational institution , has
caused quite n little flurry In the usually
qnlot college world. It Is aald that ex
pulsion awatts some of the young men
who have boon engaged in the spreo.

NEW WHITE GRAPE Copy of a part of a photograph
of a NIAGARA vine , planted
NIAGARACopy , as It appeared- * Fall of
NIAGARA ISSO with 63 clusters weighing
26 Ibs. on 48 In. bearing ; wood
1st. The Niagara ripens in favorable seasons at Lockport , Aujr. 20th ,
2d. It never drops from tha stem if left to hang till frost comes , and , improves in flavor
the time ,
3d. It is purely native , and therefore hardy. Has stood 35 degrees below zero without
.njury.
4th , .Bears a good crop the 3d year nnd often the 2d. and is a regular bearer , nnd no
waste , as bunches are compact Never fails to ripen its crop as the thick leathery foliaga
holds oven to the base of the canes until frost kills it.
5th. Vineyards are in bearing in various sections from Georgia to the Northern Lakes
and Canada , and from Kansas to the Atlantic coast , there being more than 1,000 acres planted
within tbejost five years , and over 200 acres were planted at Brocton , Chautaumia Co. , N.
Y. last spring , (1884) ( ) ; Jonas Martin alone having 47 acres ; the largest vineyard ot Niagaras ,
being planted at Highland , Ulster Co. , N. Y. , by Sain'l Rogers , Ilsq. , which contains 80 acres
of this one variety , and he has realized from 20 to 30 cents per pound for his fruit , while Con
cords grown in the same locality brought from 4 to 0 cents only.
. 0 , All parties planting vineyards have signed a contract to rRturn all the wood and cut
ting every year back to the Company up to , and including 1888 ; so it has b jon the solo owner of
all the stock , and no one but the Company and its authorized agents can sell and deliver
genuine Niagara vines. So all persons should examine ngont's certificate of authority , and
see that it has the corporate seal of the Company attached , and every vine that it han a load
seal attached , bearing the impression of the Company's registered trade mark.
7th. We now offer for the first time , strong 2 year old vines at retail at S3,00 each with
