Tliis is not tlm most suitable sort of
weather to indulge in much sitlontion to
parks , but tlio time draws ncnr for sir-
anging for tlio appropriation for this
u'ir , nml lieneo the park commissioners
.ml . nltlcrincn are looking over the prob-
bio needs. Council Hind's is the only
own city which really has any parks ,
onio of the cities huvo si square , and
onio of thorn call such places parks , but
his eitv really has parks. The parks are
lot only so extensive , but they possess
ueh natural beauty that by the oxpendi-
uro of a llttlo money each year Council
Mull's would soon be known far and nearer
or the beauty and extent of its parks , if
or nothing else. The citizens them-
olvi'S , at lea t many of them , do not
eallze what a wealth of parks Council
Mull's posiosses. There are between 000
nil 700 acres of parks belonging to this
ity.Most
Most are familiar with Uayliss pirk : ,
hat being in the center of the city , it is
i little beatitv. but it needs some ini-
irovements. Tlicro should bo some llll-
ng iloni' , sind new walks laid. A foun-
tun should bo added lo tlieattraclivi-ness
f the place. Such arn some of the im-
) ro'emetits being considered by the com-
nissioncrs.
Lake View park is one which is by Hig
* tiku. It is proposed to find the mean-
Icrod lines , anil si plan is being talked
over of condemning land for u road , 150
\'it ; widu , connecting with Cherry street.
J'sih'iiiomil park is onu of which this city
isis reason to bo promt , it being , the
inui'k"jt ' natural park in tin's part ot H'9
otintry It seenis necessary to define
liu east and west sides by fence , as
hero has been more or less cutting away
of the blulVs , and tlicro may be some en-
H'Oiichnictit upon the park grounds mi-
ess some such precaution is taken. There
s also being considered the advisability
of opening a drivowayfrom Park avenue.
Vnothor driveway , entering the park
"nun the south , is also being considered ,
t is desired that fountains ho placed in
ho park this year , as there is an sibund-
nil water supply.
Many citi/.ens are not aware that the
ity has a small park inCialesburg siddi-
.ion , near Fo-jter's greenhouse. There
sa block there , which is valuable , and
vith some slight care will ho ono of Uie
m-Uiest parks in the city , it needs to be
rimmed up and fenced.
Little attention has boon paid to Island
; > ! irk since tlm citizens had an excursion
.here hist year. Jn order to make Iho
> ark roallv available it is nece.xsary to
) iiy about twenty acres more. Then
'here would be a drive clear around
Jarr's lake , and beautiful picnic grounds ,
t is proposed to grade around the lake
inil rsii > o the water some.
J'ho sippropnation of last year
inioiinlcd to about $3iOO. ( The present
evy will not bring in any money until
ii'\t fall , so that this ifiJ.fiOO really has to
cover lust year's expenses and this sum-
ner's outlay , unless the commissioners
anticipate tlio coming in of the cash.
The o mailers are being considered
carefully , and there will bo no hasty
noves made. It seems desirable that
onto marked improvements should be
mule , however , each year , and this can
) e clone without any great burden on the
.axpuvers. Council iSliill's has a chnnee

Owners or Saloon
Tlici injunction lights under the pro
hibitory law have been mainly centered
about the business itself , and the active
saloon men , rather than the owners of
the buildings in which such saloons are
located. In DCS Aloines petitions have
been tiled to secure injunctions against
the property owners. The main point in
issue was whether they were liable.
Their attorney argued before Judge
( liven of the supreme court tliat as they
had leased lor no illegal ! purpose , their
allirmativo section must be given for the
transaction of tlm illegal business , before
they could bo held. The prosecution on
the other hand claimed that they had
been given ample notilication , both by
sci/.urcs and other lawful process , and
miistconrtcqucntly ho held.
.Judge Given decided that the property
owners had been sulllciontly notilied ,
and were subject to injunctions with the
saloon keepers. In deciding this point
the court says :
Itonlyiciiulns to determine , theicfoie , Lo-
hane's liability to injunction. In his atll-
tlavlt ot Jmiuniy 3-1 he le tllies Unit the IHCIU-
l.scs weie li'.iM-il by him upon tlio expicxs
ngtccmciit that they .should not bo used lor
any unlawful puriioic , and that it the siiino
are so used , with icipcct to which he had no
peisonul knowledge , It was without his con
sent or approval.
It Is claimed on behalf of defendant that
heennnot bohelil to have permitted the mi-
lavilul biislncxA unless he bus had aetunl
knowledge theicut' and hasanscnti'dtheieto
by some alliimntho act. On the other hand
It is el.ilined by the plnintllf that us owner he

Stop Thief.
There has been si gruslt deal of annoy
ance caused of late by sneaks stealing
newspapers from subscribers. The
morning papers being delivered by car
rier boys sit so early an hour when there
are few on the strccls , gives an oxcolk'iit
chance for such thieves to lake a paper
without being observed. They have
been improving this opportunity , and as
a consequence subscribers have been
disappointed , carriers have often boon
blamed for missing , aud then * has bcca a
great deal of nervous strain and irrita
tion all around. The BITK has had its
share of this trouble , and has lately been
on the lookout for such fellows. Yester
day morning C'apt. Anderson , manager
of the merchants' uolicc , caught one of
these fellows , and brought him to the
front. Ho was a boy about seventeen
years of a < ; e , named Charles Ilollings-
worlh. Ho had just helped himself to a ,
paiier from a box nt the residence of D.
J. Rockwell , No. 811) ) Third avenue , when
the officer nabbed him. He admitted to
have taken the 15r.it several times before.
Jn police court yesterday morning he
pleaded guilty lo laraeny , and was lined
$3 and costs. " The judge suspended the
.sentence to give the boy a chance to behave -
have himself hereafter , and revuestcd
that his name be not made public on ac
count of the excellent standing of the
family.
The BEK has no malice against the boy
and regrets that any of his friends should
stiller on account ot his acts. Hut it is
time that an example was made of this
class of sneak-thieves , for while the value
of a single nupcr is not great , yet the
trouble caused by taking so small a thing
is considerable. The publicity is given
to the matter us a warning to others who
may feel dUposod to indulge in this sort
of pilfering. The BEK , as well as the
Nonpareil and other papers has decided
to keep up tv watchfulness , and let no
guilty man or boy escape. The pilfering
of newspapers is too great an annoyance
to bu allowed to bo kept up , and when
ever an.\ one is caught committing such
an acl llie papers will give him the full
beiielit ot advertising in the courts and
in the columns.

The Overcoat WcuknesH.
George Wilson was lately sent to jail
for sneaking a lint from the Tremont
house. His time was up Wednesday , but
he hud not been out of jail more than two
hours before the oflicers had him again ,
charged with a like ollcnso. It appears
that he proceeded straight from the jail
to the Creston house and lucre hclned
himself to an overcoat belonging to
William Aliddleton , one of the boarders.
He took the coat to Drolich's second hand
store , on Hroadway , and sold it for $1 ,
although the coat was one thai cosl ever
$ ' . ? 0. The ollicors soon after arrested him.
When taken in he WUH found to have on
another overcoal , uliich il is said was
stolen from one of the colored boys at the
Pacific : , and under inV coat liulnul a lady's
Jersey , so that ilseomo ho plied his busi
ness actively during his short spell of
freedom , ( Jn being brought before
Judge Aylosworth yesterday morning ho
listened to thu information charging him
witli larceny from a building in thu daytime -
time , and asked the judge it lie couldn't
make it potty larceny. He did not believe -
liove the overcoat was worth $20 , biit'tho
judge informed himitmadonodiUVrence.
as there would bo another charge lileii
against him lor stealim' another overcoat
from another hotel. This rather weak
ened his hopes , and ho asked for n few
days to see what he wanted to do about
it , His examination was therefore set
for Saturday.

ernor Will Cumbaok of Indiana was wel
comed by a full house lasl nighl at Dye's
hall. U. F. Clayton , csq , , introduced the
speaker by n few appropriate remarks ,
giving a brief synopsis of the speaker's
early history , from entering con
gress at the ago of 20 up lethe
the present time. Ho dwelt brielly upon
the progress made by the three western
states , vi/.j Towi. , Nebraska and Kansas ,
made since tlio ' ; cturcr first entered con
gress. Ac that time the slates mentioned
wore very smajtors in America's his
tory , but to-dui they rank among the
foremost states at the union.
Cutting his remarks oil * as .short as pos
sible ho introduced Air. Cumback. We
would like to give the readers of the
Kr.K tlio full lecture , so that those who
have neyer been privileged to listen to it
might get the benefit , but we suppose
that would ra.hpr bo infringing on the
patent. Air. Cmnbaek hold tlio audience
for about one hour and twenty minutes ,
and wo presume no audience was over
better entertained by a public1 lecturer *
The lecture , "Tho Invisible Some People
ple , " is founded upon the inconsistencies
of the world n't lar c , and is very cm-
phatlc Jii its ilonnnciation of those Mho
are ever anxious to roll the ball of scan
dal , mul prove their assertions by
the theory that "somo people say. "
II paints in glowing , colors the general .
cusscdness of hvporrites , liars , back
biters , ami scaivfsl mongers , and con
demns them to a hereafter , where they
will probably cry pub ; in their agony , for
some one to come and lay a ton or two of
ice on their parched tongues , They arc
all handled wltluhtt 'gloves ' , and justly ,
too , the whole Interspersed with laughu-
bio anecdotes , that arc not only interest
ing bill bear directly upon the subject.
Alr.Cumbaek has a good and well trained
delivery , while his enunciation is as clear
ami distinct as though he were but thirty
years old. All who iicard him wore well
pleased , and we hoard many expressions
of regret that such treats were so far be
tween. *

mnrknhlo Kseaties Krom Death.
Philadelphia Times : In Alanohoster in
ISo'J ' , while the elder brothers were play
ing in "The Two l-Tyiug Alen of the Air , "
William fell from a trapeze and broke
two of his ribs , onu of his arms , and out
his head. Ho was laid up for a year and
nhalf. Alfred fell oneo in 1805 in Huf-
falo while turning a somersault from a
trape/e and attempting to catch u rope.
He broke two of his ribs and cut his
headtopen. Kdward , onu of the brothers ,
now in Vienna , while performing on a
long ladder in the Academy of Alusie in
Now Orleans under David llidwell's
management , in 1800 , fell head
downward into the parquet His
shoulder struck a soldier , who had to
bo taken lo the hospital , while Kdward
was comparatively unhurt. Thomas , the
brother who committed suicide , had
three falls at different limes. This last
fall resulted in his going craxv. His lirst
fall was in tiic Coliseum in Liverpool ,
while performing on what is ealleil the
perilous ladder. Ho fell into the orches
tra and smashed the bass viol , but did
not hurt himself. His second fall was at
JJiblo'sgarden , in New York , under the
management of James L. Nixon. Ho
tried to make too long a leap to catch * , a
rope that was being held ill uie wings by
his brothers , William and Gcorgo. Jlc
only caught the rope with one hand unit
fell on his brothers , so that they had lo
be carried to their beds. His last fajl
was at Pike's opera house , in Cincinnati ,
in 1801. It was in summer and his hands
wore wet witli perspiration. His grip
slipped and lie fell on the stage , his head
striking tlio footlights , and one of the
gas burners penetrated his skull.
Three years after Thomas fell at Pike's
opera house he was arrested in Harrisburg -
burg , while acting in a demented way
about Ihc streets. Ho was taken to jail.
His brothers at the time were searching
all over the country for him , and one
day Edward received a telegram from
the mayor of Harrisburg saying Unit an
insane man , who claimed to bo one of
the Hanlon brothers , had been arrested.
During a lucid interval Thomas asked
why ho was in jail , ami the keeper tried
to quiet him. 'I hero was part of u lot of
steam heating pipes in his cell , and the
cock was on tlm end ofi the pipes in his
coll. He conceived the idea to kill him
self by turning ilialf somorsaujts so
that his head would strike each time on
Ihe cock. He turned fifteen half-somer
saults in this way anil beat his brains
out. Six men tried to overpower him ,
but he broke one man's arm and another
man's nose. Ho was a small man aud a
sciuntilic hover. 'After ho had almost
crushed his skull In he linally became ex
haustcd anil was taken.out of his cell on
a stretcher. Ho lived until the next day ,

The old proverb is certainly true in the
case of Dr. Pierce's "Pleasanl Purgative
Pellets , " which are little , sugar-wrapped
parcels , scarcely larger than mustard
seeds , containing as much cathartic pow

their operation do not produce griping
pains , nor render tlio bowels costive after
using.
