All the public schools of the city trill cloio to-day for the summer vacation. Tnero seems to ho no farther develop ments In the Hayes hanging mystery at Neoln. Every ono Is puzzled. Koolino & Felt are putting up a ware house on Thirteenth avcnuo to which the Wobaah will ran a sldo track. Miss Mary Y.Oralg has opened a studio at 812 Third atrcot , and Is prepared to glvo Instructions In drawing and painting. Roller ia offering great bargains at his merchant tailoring establishment , No. 310 Broadway. Sco his goods and got his prices. F Ooplea of the Iowa historical and com- P parltivo census , 183G to 1880 , have boon fir distributed to the various county and olty offices and to the county board of super visors. The damage done to the Institute for the deaf and dumb by the wind storm , has nearly boon repaired. The paper hangers are putting on the finishing touches. Dr. Palmer , ( Lone Wolf ) presented to J. 0. Bennett , the liveryman , a gold chain and charm. The charm was the figure of a horse cut from a nugget of gold , and was two Inches long. David Morris , and Bordo Stringer , of Council Bluffs , having boon duly armed with the proper license , repaired to the office of Justice Shury , Saturday evening , and were made ono. The friends of the Fierce street school are invited to moot the teachers and scholars at the school building to-day , at 1:30 : o'clock. A very pleating programme lias boon prepared , and will bo rendered. It was found to bo Impossible to so nearly complete the work of the district court , as to bo able to effect an ad journment Saturday , aa was expected. Therefore it will bo continued a part of this wook. Owing to the fact that the base ball clnb of Glonwood would not accept the challenge of the Oouncl Bluffs boys for a game of ball at Glonwood July 4 , there will bo no excursion to Glenwood on the 4th from this city. "Fonchon , the Cricket , " will bo the play Tuesday evening. Those who saw the Buchanan company when It was last hero , will not want to m'ss this play by the popular company. The admission Is also popular , 25,15 and 10 cents. Florence Gibbons , and Mar/ Gibbons quarreled Saturday with a family who occupy part of the same house with the girls , which Is located way down on the bottoms. The girls became so excltod that It became necessary to put thorn In the cooler , to cool off. By the time the superior court moots thla morning they will probably bo calm. A man who refused to give his came was picked np by the police Saturday afternoon for being drunk. Ho werrt along quietly enough nntil ho found whore ho was being taken , then ho fought , and fought so effectively that it took four men to get him inside and search him. Ho had a roll of $42 In ono of his pockets. Ho will now bo able to pay his fine and have over $30 left. If the police had not cared for him ho would doubtless have lost it all. There is ono man In Council Bluffs who Is duly Impressed with the size of the ag ricultural warehouse an J the vastness of the stock of David Bradley & Co. , and that man is 0. J. Beckman , the poll tax collector. Ho had no trouble in the office and made a good haul , bnt when ho attempted to corral the mon in the warehouse they led him a long , weary chase , upstairs end down , among bug gies , wagons , plows and dozens of other implements , that a poll tix collector has no earthly use for. On Saturday as a freight train on the Chicago , Burlington & Qalncy roat was crossing the main line at Clarlnda Junction another freight train came thundering down the main line and a very bad wreck la reported , In which several oral cars were broken into splinters. It caused n delay of several hours to the passenger trains. The officials of the road were very reticent bnt nevertheless the BEE man learned that It was a very bad break ono of those bad breaks o which the "Q" seems to of had severa lately. There are eighty-nine unfinithed cases before the Superior court of this city , which will have to bo earned forward at least until disposed of. Some of theie are so antiquated that even the clerk does not know why they are on the books. Others are continued to BOO If the offend ois will not brace up ; in which case they will never bo proeecuted. This number Is added to each month. It would seem that If the docket can not bo cleared , 1 would at least effect a considerable cav ing In clerical labors if the clerk was fur nished with a printed docket. Mr. John Mniselmsn , who for the past eight months has boon manager ul the Council Bluffs telephone exchange , has decided to go back to Omaha , whence he came here. In times pait there has been considerable fault found with the telephone tervlco Lcrr , and not wlthoni just came , But since Mr. Mutselmon has been here ho has so Improved it that Council Bluffi has &s good service as any other city , nd better thin it over had before , \then be came hero there were 120 subscribers to the exchange , and now there are ICO. The outtldo lines have nearly all boon rebuilt , and the central office rearranged. The subscribers here will bo sorry to see him leave. Saturday morning , bright and early , ono of the men at the agricultural ware house of Van Brant , Thompson & Co. turned on the water and proceeded to wet down the street and wash off the tidewalk. After n few minutes , while momentarily giving his attention to some thing else , ho elevated the nozzle so that the stream of water was directed full Into a sample wagon with a high box that stands in front of the warehouse. What was the astonishment of the man to hoar a scrambling and a yell , and immediately two unkempt heads rose from the box , calling out , "Holy Moses , don't ' wet us all down. " Two tramps had boon sloop- In ? In the wagon , and were suddenly awakened by the falling water. The stream was not diverted from thorn until they looked llko two fisherman who had been out to Big lake and boon capsized. The much talked of retrenchment in the expenses of the city cannot go Into effect on the first of the month as was proposed , by reason of the failure of the common council to hold any mooting , there ( being no quorum present for the past i two weeks. It wis proposed to discharge the police , and confer police powers upon the marshal , his deputies , and the constables , and appoint special policemen when It becomes necessary. All the salaries to bo cut off , and the po lice work to bo paid for by the fees and fines. The gas was to bo shut off on the principal business streets , and the fire department reorganized on a moro eco nomical baais. No ordinance has yet aeon formed authorizing thcso retrench ments , and the next regular mooting does not occur for a week , after which tlmo several days will necessarily elapse bo- ioro a now ordinance cau bo put In prac tical operation. Informations were filed Saturday against Forgncson & Son , John Ahlei , Mace Wise , and T. N. Brag for main taining nuisances on premises owned and occupied by them. Notlccswero served on them to abate eald nuisances. The offi cer making service soys that though ho was acting In a purely official capacity , and endeavored to perform his duty in a gentlemanly manner , ho did not receive llko treatment from some of the parties. Thin Is a now departure. Usually the officer serving the notice , is offered a ci gar , with the remark , "all right , I'll too to that , " and there the matter ends. Of course the duty of the officer extends no further than the moro serving of the pa pers and the citizen paya no attention to ; ho notice. Probably notice to clean op Presbyterian alloy has been sorvcdjfifty Imea during the last four years , but no ono ever thought of getting mad or grumbling to the officers about it , and nobody ever cleaned It up either. Children , it is unkind and disrospoct- ul to deceive your dear old grandmother , tfevor give her anything to patte in the ocal page of her scrap book that will be ikoly to cause unthinking people to angh at her. Some of yon should be ashamed for giving her the article "Another Swindle" which commences : "Yesterday morning the National State bank received In its mail three notes for collection from the 'Western Claims agency In St. Louis. The notea were drawn by parties who are unknown here , and endorsed by the names of some of our best business mon. The names sod as endorsers are H. Bailey , John W. Gilbert , W. H. Dempsey and L. S. Skin- nor. " Now whoever handed her that scrap know very well that there Is no National State bank here , and that there are no business men in the city having the names given above. Children , the old lady's ' confidence in you will bo sadly shaken If you trifle with her In this manner. Bead Judd & Smith's offer of $1,000 reward in another column. Substantial abstracts of tltlo and real estate loans. J. W. and E. L. Squires , 101 Pearl street , THE MYSTERY SOLVED , Nick Olcary Btlll Allvo mill In Illi nois. On Saturday a BEE man , hearing that Mrs. Nick Cloary had rocolved a letter from her husband and that ho was still alive , repaired to the family residence at No , 1731 Avenue B , to find the particu lars. lars.It It will bo remembered by the BEE readers that Nick Oleary , on the night of Juno G , got op out of bed and lett his home about 12:30 : o'clock , and told his wife and daughter not to say a word to any ouo unless Inquiries were made by outsiders. The family having noticed him to bo somewhat deranged thought it very prob able that ho had wandered away from homo and was hiding some where , or that lie bad been drowned in the Missouri river. Ou the BEE man's arrival at Mrs. deary's bo was Informed by that hdy that she had received a letter from Mr Oleary'a cousin , William Cleary , of Lock- port , III , , who said her husband was there and working in a quarry In Lomont , a short dlttanco from Lt export. The letter gave no particulars about Mr , Oloary'a strange movements , but eald ho was well , and tbat ho would write her soon and give particulars. Mr * . Cloary told the BEE man that she had forgotten that In had any relatives except in Buffalo , N. Y , , and tbat the Bitflttlo relatives saw the report In tbo BEE of her hutbind's mysterious diiap * potrance and bad telegraphed her that her husband w s not thoro.
