A atrawberry festival and d nco la to bo given Juno 3 and < i in the masonic hall , under the management of Mra. J. W. Cuslok. and for the benefit of _ the catholic chnrch.

A colored man named Charles Howard , yras caught Saturday afternoon stealing a pair of pantaloons from Bono'a store , and being taken baforo Justice Shurz was nentoncod to thirty days in jail. The old man Hoover , of whom men tion was made In the BEE the other day , os being complained of for abasing his grandson , Is said to have turned the boy ont the other night. The llttlo fellow haa now gone to his mother. Last ovonlng the members of Abe Lin coln post , grand army of the republic , attended services in the mothodlat chnrch the pastor of which preached an appro priate sermon. The church was decDralod In a patriotic manner , with fhgs , otc. The Barbour dramatic company wll contlnuo to amuse and interest the crowds at the dime museum this nook The muBoum part of the ahow will con tinuo to contain attractions which are o themselves well worth the price of ad mlralon. The llttlo daughter of John Schlcketan has boon suffering for notno tlmo with tome trouble of the nose , and at last the cause of difficulty has boon discovered and removed , It being a shoo button , which the little ono had in aomo playful moment placed there. The now city clerk Is now taking hold In good earnest , and there will nothing raoro bo done In the controversy , as the old clerk Bays ho his no inclination or money to fight it out in the ( courts , and no very good show to win If ho did. Now the chlof of the fire department la to bo asltlcd. There were sixty-four cases of straw- bonics aold In this city Saturday , for homo consumption only , and there being 24 boxes to a case , the total number of boxes reached 1C30 , , and as each box was probably made to do for moro than ono person , there must have boon several thousand persons who yesterday tested the fruit. Jndgo Connor will hold his court In the clerk's oflico thii morning , the court room bolng taken by the regular seislon of the dlitrlct couit. Although there Is to bo } only preliminary sparring m the injunc tion case * , still tha interest in every step of the prohibitory prosecutions i § so great that It Is doubtful whether the clerk's oflico will be roomy enough to accommo date all the listeners. Tha Omabu Herald la now to drop its attempt to have u Council BlufTi correspondent pendent , Ohtrlio Pest , who hss Locn do ing that work , acd doing It well , baring decldid to jo'n with hia brother , who is also a thorough nrmpaf or man , in start- Ing.ft new democratic psrer in Noligh , Nebraska. They will make a trong loam , and tholr many friends hero will wish them enccots from the very start. Yesterday afternoon two young men in driving along Broadway near the dum my depot , wora uncoromonlonely dumped out , the tongue dropping down as the horses were trotting along , and striking the ground , lifting the front part of the vehicle sa that the front wheels were pulled from under , letting the box fall , while the team wont jogging off at their pleasure. It Is reported that Sander , the musonm man , abont whom there have been so many turmlsco and Inquiries , has not been out of the olty , but has boon lying quiet at ono of the leading hotels , having been on a llttlo eproo and not getting over it sufficiently to appear in public. Tha hotel mon with whom it is reported that ho haa bean stopping nro very reti cent about the matter , and claim to know nothing abont his whereabouts. The Kcv. Mr. Crofts , pastor of the congregational church , gave an excellent Barman yesterday morning on the "Working Church. " Ho has been quite 111 for a day or two and was hardly able to got through the morning service , and In consequence of his condition no even ing service was hold. It Is not thought to bo any serious ailment , and his many friends hope to BOO him in accustomed health In a few days , The Interruption to the ovonlng services waa a disappoint ment to many and to the pastor himself , 0,3 the evening services have boon In creasing In Interest and in attendance. The Aylosworth-Loolbouroir contest has baon argued and submitted , and the Oth ot Juno has boon not as the day for a decision to bo rendered. Jndgo Aylea- worlh and his friends are very confident that the ruBult will bo In hla favor. In ouch an event Alderman Mynstor haa an eye on the position of judge of the su perior court , and as the mayor has the appointing of como ono to fill the vacancy until the next city election , ho will doubtless - loss glvo the place to his admlror. When It comes to a vote of the people , however - over , the result may change this order of oxorcleos greatly. Frederick 0. Gortonborg was arrested Saturday , his wife claiming that while drunk ho had boon abutivo to hor. Ho bogged so that ho was allowed to gc , on promising to keep away from the house , but soon hla wlfo Bent word that ho was raising another row and ho was re- arrested. Ho in turn complained that Jam03 Harvey had assaulted him , and Harvey waa also arrested. The wife , a little later , wont security for Harvey's appearance Monday morning , and Gor- tonberg was allowed to go on his own recognizance - cognizance , to appear in court at the same time. The family troubles will , therefore , bo adjusted this morning. There teems to be nothing definitely known as to what ia to bo done In the matter of chieftainship of the fire depart' rnont. It seems that tha council has wisely concluded to got the question of city clerkship settled firmly first , and than proceed with the other at tholr leisure. As the now chief has duly qual ified , and as tbo mayor's veto does not appear to bo of any account , there seems to bo llttlo for anybody to do , except for the old chief to gracefully retire and the now chlof to go on with his duties. The old chief should iako warning from the case of the city clerk , and not hurt his reputation by trying to hold on. His friends will think moro of him if ho re tires gracefully , and his enemies can think no worao of him. The crowd of new advertisements In the BEE shows that the business mon of the city are alive to their Interests , ami propose to use the bast moans of letting the public know what they have for ealo The BEE la the only paper that gives Its patrons the benefit of a worn statements aa to Its circulation , and Inspection cf Its actual number of papers published. The need of this is passing anay , however , as t Is generally conceded now that thn BKE line the largest circulation of any , and in fact , of all other papers in the city. Th ConncllBlnffa advertisements appearluth entire morning edition , and thus advor tlses the business of Council Bluffs overlarge largo extent of country in which no otho Council Bluffs paper puts in even an ap peannco. This fact , and the wcndorfu growth of the circulation , hero as well a elsewhere , has caiuod some of the sleep ; competitors to fill their columns wit ! howls , but It is of no avail. Buslnos mon , who have tested the facts by octua trial , know that It pays to advertise In th DEE , and that Is enough. Substantial abstracts of titles and real estate loans , J , W. & E.

The death of thlu old resident was not altogether unexpected , but it Is none the leas aid , and the ton derott expressions ot Borrow and yrop : > thy are heard on all aides.
