Another party is to go through hero to California on the 20th. Yesterday morning a little daughter of Charles 1'nyimk , the barber , living nc.\t to tlio Kiel house , was playing on the sidewalk when she was bitten by a large doc boloniring to Mr. Lan/ondorlcr. The child was bitten in the check making : in ugly wound. The dog was at once shot. The bovs nt tlio Rescue honso have shown rare skill in making si Strasburg clock , thu work being done with their jig-saw. They purpose milling it oil' , nnd whoever gets thu pn/.o by the investment of n half dollar is indeed a lucky man. Tlio frnmu is tin elegant one of liollywood and wulnut , and sits on a ! beautiful bracket. The clock is a minia- ! tnrc roproH'iitiitlnn of the Strasbnrg clock , nnd thu whole is indeed a beauty. Many new traverses are- being built , old ones repaired , etc. , in anticipation of the coasting carnival. J'he "Occidental" | has been purchased by the Wells. Fargo & Co. employes and the name changed to "Fnrgo. " "Uli//u-d" : is the name of n a new fourteen foot traverse , owned by I Edward and Irvin Parsons , Will Huntington - ton and Clarence Jutlson. Whether they will be used this reason or not remains to be seen. Ollicor O'llrion has arrested a fellow named Tedrow , whom he books as a gen uine vagrant. This fellow was wanted hero months ago on suspicion of being concerned in tlio robbery of two men named McDonald , who live in Omaha. They lost $100 while in a saloon shaking dice , and Tedrow disappeared about that time. If thty can bo found now , he will probably bo prosecuted on this charge , as well as vagrancy. With three men claiming the oflico of coroner the question will arise as to who uliall get pay for holding the inquest Saturday. Mr. Fnnl claims pay for in vestigating the case , although ho found it not necessary to hold an inquest. Mr. Council held an inquest and so claims pay. Dr. licllingcr , the other claimant of the olllca , attended the man in his last moments' .so doubtless has a bill. The county board will doubtless stand by its own record nnd recognize Faul as the coroner , and will doubtless reject all other claims. Money to loan by Forest Smith. Tlio Will of tlio IJnr.

A resolution was also passed express ing the belief in the necessity for legisla tion for the reorganization of the state judiciary system. Favor was expressed for such legislation as will make the judicial districts the same as the con gressional districts , each district to have a circuit judge who shall have exclusive jurisdiction of probate matters , and each district to have four district judges , to have jurisdiction of other business. This in substance is the plan urged by Senator Carson. Ton years trial has proven Dr. Thomas Joll'eris' prevcntativp and euro for diphtheria to bo infallible.

There has been but .little light thrown upon the- death , of Alex Graber , which occurred at Metropolitan hotel'aboiit 1 o'olock Saturday. About 5 o'clock Friday afternoon ho was at Foster's drug store nnd secured a small bottle of mor phine , He had not been in good health of late , and had got the morphine on the undcrstandinc that ho frequently used it for relief from pain from rheumatism. Ho ate his supper ns usual , and retired to his room about 10 o'clock. He was not scon until about noon on Saturday when the chamber maid finding the room still occupied called the attention of the pro prietor , Mr. Lnngmado. The door was forced open and he was found lying on the bed in an unconscious and dying con dition. Dr. Hcllingcr was called in and administered remedies , but it was too late. In a short time death came. A small bottle of laudanum was found but there was nothing to indicate whether he had taken nn overdose by accident or with suicidal Intent. Tlio friends of the deceased disclaim belief in the suicidal theory , and deem it must have been acci dental. Coroner Faul called at the hotel , and on learning tlio particulars of the death , concluded that it was not neces sary to hold nn inquest. D. M. Cou ncil , who still claims to bo the coroner of the county , concluded ho would hold nn inmicst , and summoned nsjtuorsJ. W , Hosier , Captain Walters nnd Policeman Towns. They found n verdict to the ofl'ect that the deceased came to his death by an overdose of laud anum , administered by his own hand , which threw but little light on the ques tion whether it was suicidal or not. Mr. Grabor has lived hero for many years. Ho was about 0.1 years old , and is said to liavn n wife and one daughter , but their residence is not known , ho hav ing separated from his wife years ago. Ho was one of the pioneers of this state. He was also a veteran of the Mexican war. In the early times ho was engaged in stage coaching , and for years was agent lor one of the largest companies , and used to run a smaller line of his own. For many years bast ho hqs been in the employ of the Union Pacific railway ns check clerk , most of the time nt tlio transfer , and for a time at Columbus , Neb. Ho was n member of No. 40 , Knights of Pythias , and that order has taken charge of tlio remains. Tlio funeral will bo held oil' Tuesday , probably , the exact time not being fixed upon , ns it is desirable that tlio address of the wife and daughter bo first learned , if possible. The Constliifi Carnival. The thaw which has started in so en thusiastically has caused some doubts to arise about the advisability of going ahead with thl arrangements for a coasting carnival , but in the hope that the weather may change , and with the assurance that it will tsike several days of warm weather to do away with alf the snow , it has been decided to go ahead. The arrangements will therefore go on , until it becomes evident that there is no chance for the proposed fun. There was a meeting held Saturday night. It being learned that Air. F. A ( . Gault could not- serve as president , Air. AI. B. Brown was chosen to thus serve , and n special soliciting committee was chosen , consisting of William Alaloney , AV. K. Vaughan , B. T. Connor and J. C. Bixby. John Tonipleton was chosen as chairman of the committee on illumina tions. About $35 was raiscil on the spot for incidental expenses , and there will bo no trouble in securing whatever else is necessary to make it a success. Another meeting of the committees will bo held this evening , and to-morrow evening there will bo a general meeting. The following card has been issued : A CMtDTO COASTKUS.

At their last regular , Jauntily ill. at their room in the city building ( fur nished by the city , rent free ) , the attend ance was so largo that some of the old est members were crowded out , so to speak , and went home , much to the sur prise of wives who had become accus tomed to the seventh day absence of their llego lord , Lest there might a wrong opinion bo formed of tills social club would say that among the charter members are found throe of pur councilinon marshal , night watch , city recorder , saving nothing of our business men , all professions being represented doctors , lawyers , mer chants and chief ( of our fire department ) . Therefore , with the number of city olli- cials , and one of our justices of the peace , who favors the meetings with his digni fied presence , the club takes high rank. _ x. v. .

The town has been all "torn up" during the past week over some wln ky ca. p ? , ami thg end is not yet. A man by the name of Wildrick has been keeping a restaurant , and , as it has been proven , sold intoxicat ing liquors , on Sixth street , for the last few months. John Henry , another saloon keeper , had Wildrick arrested , and ho was fined $50 by the mayor. Ho then swore out a search warrant against Henry , and the minions of the law swooped down and seized about 100 gal lens of liquors of various kinds , Wil drick was again arrested and taken be fore Squire Ilorbrook , who lined him $50 and costs. Thn Hon. Cyrus Armdt ap peared for the defendant , and lion. L. IJrown for the plaintiff. Wildriek failed to pay the line , and the justice said ho would not issue a warrant of commit ment for a short time if he remained out of the business , as Wildrick had agreed . to quit. Immediately another warrant was put in the ollicer's hands to arrest Wildrick for keeping a nuisance. During the past week the city council has been busy nrraugine and passing ordinances for the town which will become a city of the second class after the 1st of March. The city will bo divided into three wards. Caucuses will bo held during this week to put In nomination aldermen for the year. Thus far there are no less than six or seven probable- candidates mentioned for mayor at the coming election. Messrs. Leo Grow , L. Brown. F. AI. Deuce , Cyrus Arndt , J. S. Wattles and J. S. Dowell are among the number. The question ot water works will no doubt bo oneof the principal topics of tlio new council for consideration , and it is hoped they will take immediate action in the matter. Some of the citizens and business men are very much dissatisfied with tlio pres ent system of street lamps and arc in favor of electric lights , believing they would bo far cheaper in the long run than the present system of gasoline. J. W. Harris , one of the Times force , was badly hurt this week by slipping ami falling on the frozen ground. It allected his back so that ho was confined to his bed for several days. LUDI.OW.
