Those who find il convenient to make a short cut through liayli&s park now ijml the walking horrible , but the wading good. The snow is drifted in so that in Its soft condition the pedestrians , without regard to gender , can go in to the knees. If some of those who are out of work , and nro seeking free lodging and food at the city bxiildiug could bo set at work , some paths could easily be made , which would convenience a largo uumbur of citizens. Senator Carson favors the BEE with a copy of the bill introduced by Senator Galoh pio\iding for investigation of the ollicial conduct of cities of the lirst class , and for removals from ollice. This bill , which provides for summary proceed ings , applies only to cities having over 130,000 population. If it passes , the mayor of Council Bluffs will be more careful about his boasts that this city has 88.000 inhabitants. Ho will be content with keeping it at 20,009. The carnival committees are still hoping that the weather will change so that there may bo good coasting Wednes day night. They are making arrange ments to go ahead , and will not abandon the plans until it becomes evident that there is no porslble chance for a slide. The boys have pluck enough to make the nfl'uir ji great success if the weather will only give them a chance.

WEIRICH. I'rctmrlne For City Ijlcctinii An Old lon A Urokcii Jnw Sinnlt Conl Vitc I'orsonalK. Ilnl Snuuin tlio Some of ( lie local bck-ntists hsivo clnimpil to di covur in tliftoront places In this city red snow , Midi as Is described as being found in thu northern regions' at times. One of tlirso patches is located near the Madison strcot bridfjo , another on Eighth street in the southern part of the city. The Hix iiinn was shown n red Miowb.ill which was stiid to have been taken from Madison street. It looked very much as if Pome school boy had had thn nose bleed and used the snow ball as a hand kerchief. The exhibitor , however , as sured the Hir. : man that It was really red snow , and that there j\ ere large quanti ties of it in vat ions places about the city. The tnow is of a bright , blood red color , and surfaces c.\- po'-eti ' to the Min rapidly change to a dull brown. As it melts it appears to be dripping red drops , but the drippings do not stain the lingers oi the handkerchief. The idea of red snow in this section of llio country seems preposterous , and the oldest settlers declare they never heard of siieli a tiling. It is well known that in northern latitudes red snow exists , and it is credited to the prcscnco of minute red insects which breed in multitudes in : v very low and long continued state of the thermometer , and their presence is sup posed to give color to the snow. As the wealheT moderates they uiu. niul their color dyes to a brown. There Inn o been all sorts of charges laid against this cold est of all rold JanuarU'S , so it might as well plead guilty to all , and go into his tory as having produced red snow in Council Hlnirs. The explanation of the red snow which so bothered local scientists , is given by the HUB in the fact that Air. bniathors , who does freighting between hero and Omaha , met with a mishap near Aladfcon bridge by which a largo quan tity of red mineral paint was spilled fiom the load. This accounts for the coloring of the snow. Preparing for Election. A special meeting of the city council was held yesterday afternoon for the pur pose of providing for the coming elcc- ! ? ! ! < li tllc I'11 Monday in Match , at vliich time there are to bu dlO a t.ho city officers and three aldermen. All v'crc present except Aldermen Geisc and iimg.ut. The mayor's proclamation was read and approved. The following resolution was ndoptuu : Ucsolvcd , That the city of Council lull's bo consolidated into one assessor's listriet , and that the city elect but one isscssor for said district , and that the mayor's proclamation bo issued in con- ormity tlierewith.

Lewis W. Woirich , whoso serious ill ness has already been noted , died ystcr- day noon at his residence , No. 024 Wash ington avenue. He leaves a wife and three daughters. Ho was aged 41 years , and was one of the soldiers of the late war , having served in the First Colorado cavalry. Mr. Weirich has had experi ences which have tested his strength and weighted Ids mind with anxieties which fall to the lot of few. As is well known ho was sentenced to thu penitentiary for life , a few years ago , for killing a citizen of Harrison county. Many felt that the sentence was too severe , and after re peated efforts a pardon was at fast se- cuicd. Ho immediately went to Arizona and labored for some time in the mines , but met with financial reverses and then returned to this city. Here ho found that the stain on his record gave him no chance to get em ployment or any social standing , and life dragged on uonrily and as a heavy bur den , while ho was frequently harassed by reports that attempts would bo made to get his conditional pardon revoked and that ho would bo icromniittcd to the penitentiary. To him it .scorned that life was worth but little , hut he kept thu con ditions on which he had been released and struggled to have his conduct sucli as to regain his foothold in the world. Dentil * ccms to have relieved him not only of gieat phy.sical sullerlng but from other tioubles from whicli death seemed the only relief. The funeral will bo held at the residence Wednesday afternoon at S.33 o'clock. n brink for ado. C. .Straub. Coun cil Uhills , low.i. An Old Commission. Mr , .1 M. Phillips lias in his possession a family relic which is a curiosity indeed. It is a document commissioning his great grandfather , Mr. Job Pcngroy , ns con- { table ami collector of Itowloy , province of Massachusetts ll.iy. It bears date of November 15 , 1730 , and although 150 years old is in an excellent statu of preser vation. The document IK peculiarly worded , It is signed by William Foyo , treasurer and receiver for the king , and gives thu olltror not only the right to sie/u upon chattels for takes , but if these do not satisfy the claim he can pounce down upon thu unfortunate delinquent and place him in the "common goal. " It seems from this commission that if a man was taxed more than Ida property would sell for , ho was to bo locked up because he had no meant ) of paying taxes assessed on property whicli ho did not have. Those who kick on taxes nowadays should re- ioieo over the change. The most that can bo done now is to take all a man has in payment of Ids taxes , but there is no "goal" penalty.

At that time the people are to chose a mayor , auditor , so licitor , treasurer , judge of the superior court , mursliul , civil engineer , one assessor ser , superintendent of markets , 'ouo al derman nt large , one alderman for llio first ward , and one for the second.

" The polls are to be open from 0 o'clock a. m. to 0 o'clock p. mt Best coal and wood in the city at Gloa- son's , 0 Pearl .street. Ilrnko His Jaw. Mick Itradcn , foreman lor Uaymond & Campbell , met with a serious accident Sunday while engaged in driving piling to protect thr second caisson , which is being placed in the river. A pile had been partly driven , when it was discovered to bo p.irtl. ) out of plumb. Thu heavy iron hauim r y. u-i raised a few feet , and a pii'oi1 of U'.iuer placed across to keep it up \\ii.lo t'ti' ' pile was being forced in line This limber g.ivo way , letting the heavy wcig it fall , and , striking the end of thu plank , thu oilier end of the plank was thrown up violently , .striking tev- crui workmen , among them Uoaden. At liist It was > thought that ho was killed nnd others seriously hint , but Kcadcn's Injuries proved to consist of a fractured jaw and < .omo bad cuts and bruises. The others were only stunned , and received some slight bruises and scratches. Read- on has been boarding at Kiel's hole' ' , but was taken to St. .Joseph's hospital in Omaha for care and treatment. It is thought that ho will speedily recover. In a cemetery in Ohio there is a tomb stone with the following inscription : "Christiana Haag , died Feb. ill , 180 ! ) . " MUTINOUS MALAY SAILORS. Heroic Conduct of Cnpt. Clark A Thrllllni ; Talc of tlio Sun. The New York Herald's cable disnatch from Plymouth , England , dated Feb. ! l , says : Doubtless the Herald has already been informed by Lloyds of the burning of the ship Frank N. Thayer. of 1,5113 tons register. Last night the Union company's btcamer German , from tlio Cape , arrived hero with full particulars. The steamc'1 touching at St. Helena , the ollicers interviewed Captain Itoburt 1C. Clark , of thu burned ship , who had pre viously Arrived at Jamestown , St. Helena , in an open boat with his wffo and child and the ten survivors of his crew , four of whom were disabled by wounds. It seems that the ship had been a scene of what the nautical novelist Clark Kussoll might make a terrible tale of the sea. STA11HINO THi : MATI'.S. The captain and the crew had just fin ished celebrating New Year's Day , when , ; , t * " ! ' ' .ir.t ! while the ship was seven hundred miloa soUtiiWst of St. Helena , two Indian coolies. wi6 ! " " " Waking along the deck , suddenly turned ami su".L' " bed the lirst anil second mates. Tlio second end mate full down dead instantly , and his fellow olliccr died three hours later. LEIT roii ur.Ai ) . Captain Clr.rk was in his cabin at the time , but , hearing himself called , ran up .ho companion way , and. on reaching thu top , was stabbed in tlio head and sei/- d by the throat. He struck out with all us might , hitting his nssailant between tlio eyes. The fcjlow contjnued hacking U the captain with a knife , and in the struggle the two gradually wont down he stairs , when tlio captain slipped in the jlood which streamed Irom his side and 'ell headlong into the cabin. Tlie coolie evidently thought his victim was dead mil left him. THE CAl'TAl.V UESIEGKU. Clark at once armed himself \yith a re volver and locked himself in his cabin , so as to protect himself , his wife and child from what he conceived to be a sud den mutiny among the crew. He heard a man floundering on the stairs and opened the door , expecting to get a shot ; it a coolie , but saw a white man instead. He covered him with thu revolver , de manding , "What is the matter ? " The poor panic-stricken fellow cried , "Oh , iiido me , captain ! hide me , captain ! " Fearing treachery , and now unable to stand Irom the loss of blood , the captain sat down on the mat in the corner , whence he could command botli doors with his revolver , and Mrs. Clark , who throughout behaved with admirable cour age , began to stanch his wounds. The two comics now appeared at the cabin window and broke it in. Captain Clark fired two shots and both tlio coolies beat a retreat , doubtless much surprised at finding the captain alive. MOIIE MUitumis. To tlio captain and his wife their child was happily sleeping tlio minutes hours. It is impossible to conceive a more tcrribio situation. Shortly after ward a shriek announced the murder of the man at the wheel. Another shriek showed the carpenter had shared a sim ilar fato. Of this the cook , a Chinaman , was a trembling and helpless eye-wit ness. About five o'clock in the morning another death yell was heard by the gloomy occupants of the cabin , the two coolies having slain a third coolie who had been their chum all the voyage , thus leaving no one alive on the deck but the Chinaman , who narrates that the mur derers liad barricaded the forecastle from outside. Within were thu ten men who arrived at Jamestown in thu boat. THE SHIP ON ma : . Later Capt. Clark felt a little stronger , and placing his revolver in the hands of the man who ran to him for protection , the two inadu areconnoissanciiandfound the two coolies armed with knives lashed to the end of long sticks to hurl at any one who appeared at the skylights , whicli were tlin only points of observation Irom the cabin , Alter several attempts they succeeded in shooting one coolie dead and wounding the otluir , who , seeing the gamu was up , jumped into the son. It was then discovered that thu ship was on lire. As the ooolie.s could have no mo th o in firing the ship , the captain thinks it was duo to some carelessness of theirs , A cargo of hemp had been taken on board at Manilla , from whence the ship sailed , bound for New York , on October aist. TorAu.v nr.srnoiT.i ) , After the disappearance of thu second coolie thu captain liberated thu men from the forecastlu. They found it impossible to put out thn lire and hastily putting some teed in ( lie long boat they launched in calm weather. Mrs. Clark , the child and the wounded were as well cared for as they could bounder the circumstances. The boat was steered for St. Helena. The scamun and the two oflicers killed on deck were left behind , The survivors had no doubt , from their having seen the llaniLs hours after they left thu ship , that the vessel was totally destroyed. The captain ia ptix/.lcd to know what possiblu object there was for the murderous mu tiny. CA1TA1N CLA11K IN LONDON , Captain Clark , his wife and daughter , who is a bright little girl nine years old , have just arrived in London from Plymouth. Ho remains hero a little while for medical assistance , and then piocecds to Now York to report to his owners. Ho says tlio two murderers were taken on board at the last moment. They were real types of Malays , Hu says the crew were cowards. They could have fought at the time of the onslaught. The carpenter who was killed was named liooth ; tliu first mate Holmes , tliu second mate Davies , the look out mail Scrrah. wliilo thu man at the wheel was named Maloney , The captain was wounded in the breast so that Ids loft lung protruded , Hu says he could not got thu men out Ol their cowardly retreat until the smoke ! c.imo out of the hold. Hu remained in sight of the ship until she was fully con sumed. The \\oundfil jucn are in a hos pital at St. Helena , ilml the others are in charge of the American consul. A MOIt.U , . Several of the mOrnlng napors com- mcnt at length upon the mutiny , which , as tho/rimes / in the course of a column editorial says , "has elements of dramatic completeness , terror uiul grim romance. " Another paper says the moral of the story is Unit captains on long voyages Hhoiild not take a mixed crew and never take Malays. No dwelling has been burned in the city proper of Concord , N. II. , during the last thiiteen years , and in no ease has damage to that cliiss of property ex ceeded $1,000 , it is stated.
