mounted tlio seat of the truck and' drove
It south on Main street to get rewarded
by the driver who had then not learned
of the runaway.
Sunday night Rov. T. J. Mackoy
preached the lirst of his sermons on .the

called Sunday night lectures. Ho took
up some of the planks on which the
Knights of Labor stand , and showed
clearly some of the truths contained in
them. So far as thin discourse went it
was quite satisfactory to the members of
that qrganl/.ation. Whether ho will dif
fer with them on some other of their
principles remains to bo seen from his
iuturo lectures. One thing is pretty cer
tain , ho wijl toll honestly what ho thinks
of them , without regard to how it hits
or pleases.

Cutting tha Cards.
At tlio Methodist church Sunday night
there was a very large audience to listen
to Rov. Dr. McCivary on "Tho Gambling
Dens of Council Bluffs. " The reverend
speaker took off his gloves and called
things by what lie : it least considered
their right names. Many in tlio audience
doubtless could not ngrco with nil the
learned pastor faid , but all must have
been impressed with the fact that ho
spoke what ho believed to be the truth ,
and without any regard to any tender
corns on other people's toes.
Ho chose for his text : "Whoso is
simple , let him turn in hither. " He said
that sin was ono of the oldest things in
tlio world. It was found everywhere , no
quarter of the globe , however secluded ,
boinu free from Its gloomy outlines , the
shades being darker and blacker in some
places , but still tlio same terribly results
everywhere. Gambling was among tlio
old forms of Bin. On the obelisks and
tombs of the Egyptians , before the time
of written language , appeared the llgnni-
live showing , of games of hu/.ard. Homo
even when it ruled the world with a rod
of iron could not rule its own passion for
gambling. Greece witli all its literature
ami art could not keep from squandering
time and wealth on games of cliance.
There were several reasons for this
passion of gambling. One was a desire
to get a dollar without sweat. Ever
.since the divine benediction , which many
called a curse , that man should earn his
bread bv-tho sweat of his brow , man had
been trying to got around it , or ( lodge it.
They all wanted to cat bread made from
the whitest of the wheat , but they didn't
like tlio sweating. These gamblers al
ways got the whitest of tie ! wheat , but
their victims did the sweating. Another
reason for the passion of gambling was
the excitement which attended it. It
seemed to start a fever in the blood
which could not bo allayed. Men coiilu
often stop drinking easier than they could
stop gambling. The passion for gain was
often the stronger.
The city authorities knew that those
dens were running and just where thov
were located. Those ollicials had taken
a solemn oath to enforce the laws , but
they had not the backbone , the manli
ness to stir oven a linger or make tlio
slightest move to keep this solemn oath.
The trouble was not altogether with the
officials , nor with the keepers of these
dens , but was in the public sentiment
which allowed them to < run openly. It
was common to call them " sporting
men. " They ousrht to bo called thieves.
A spade should bo called a spade.
Tne speaker then proceeded to outline
some of the forms of gambling. The reg
ular dons were pictured , the cappers de
nounced as worse than highwaymen , be
ing less manly 'and more wicked. Boys
were allowed to play. The speaker did
not think the blame was altogether with
tlio boys , or witli the gamblers , but that
the parents were responsible. There was
no use for parents losing their authority
over hmootli-faced boys. Ho would smile
to see a stripling belonging to his homo
run the streets. These dens were not the
only ruinous gambling places. Thcro
wore private poker rooms , causing bank ; .
ruptcy to many business men. They"
failed not for want of patronage , not be
cause of lack of business ability , but be
cause they gambled. Then there were
other gambling places. Parlors brilliant
ly lighted , tlio very best people of the
city gathered there , hero an Episcopalian ,
there a Baptist , yonder a Methodist ,
church members at tables gambling. So
ciety called it a progressive euchre party.
I'ri/.cs were offered , and they played a
game of chance for pain. That made it
gambling , no matter what it was called.
It mattered not whether a man played
for a dollar or for : v porcelain kettle , a
little jug , probably a brown ono , it was all
gambling.
Instead , of calling such an organiza
tion a "married ladies progressive euchre
club , " it should bo called a "married
ladies gambling club. " Instead of calling
such a club a .young folks' progressive
euchre club , " why notcall things by their
right names , aild call it "a , young folks'
gambling club. " Ho had been saddened
and surprised to sec in the papers the
names of some of his church members as
having won some of these prizes. It
was as bad as the soldiers who at tlio foot
of tlio cross cast lots for the garments of
the dying Christ. It was a disgrace.
This was plain talk , but those who did
not like it could think less of it. lie
proposed to tell the truth.
There wore some good folks who had
cards in their homes. Ho did not bo-
liovi ) this was right. Cards wore the
devil's book , and known as such the
world over. A Christian had no business
playing with the devil's tools. Wherever
you find a pack of cards and a Bible in a
homo you would find the cards well
thumbed and tlio Bible hardly touched.
A do/.an packs of cards would bo worn
out and thu Bible look as good as new.
Some played cards to kill time. Tlioso
who killed time murdered eternity. God
did not give us' time to kill. It was to bo
used in improvement and helping others.
How ridiculous for a father to say , "Well ,
lot's stop this y a mo of oucliro and liava
family prayers. " Praying and card-
playing did not go together.
In regard to these forms of sin "Who
so simple , let him turn in hither. " When
iv 111 nu entered a gambling don let him
write over his forehead "simpleton , "
The lady who was about to join a sooiai
card party or join in progressive cnchro
should place across her forehead "simple-
ton. Tlioso who wanted to bo wise
should devote their tlmo and abilities to
otiier tilings. Shi in all its forms should
bo shunned. It should bo fought boldly
nnd continually.

The Pot
Since the citizens' convention met , and
nominated n ticket with John W. Chap
man as its head , there have been many
mutterings heard about it among repub
licans. Some claim that it is demoralizing
to have the republican party abandon its
organization , oven in city matters , others
object to the candidates elected. Yesterday -
terday a move was put on foot to have a
republican citp convention called. The
city committco did not seem to know
whether to call ono or not , some repub
licans pulling ono way , others tlio op
posite way. Finally n petition , or re
quest was started in circulation for re
publican signers , urging the committco
to make the call , The call has therefore
been intulo as appears olsowhoru.
Jt was whispered yesterday that nn at
tempt would bo lUado to nominate for
mayor Mr. Frank Evans. Jt is under-
i btoott that hi ) docs mjt waut tlio position ,
I and that ho will not accept , but his
; inumi-i want to force him whether ot nu ,
r Ho i < , u man whomtho people would bo
glad lo secure , .but there are grave
doubts about his being willing to accept
under any circumstances. Thcro is also
talk of bringing a pressure to bear njion
.Mr. 2. T. Llndsiy to accept a nomina
tion for mayor. lie is us wide awake ,
sterling and stirring a business man as
there is in the city , but it would bo
doubtless almost as difficult to qct him to
servo ns others whom the people would
pladlv elect.
Some yesterday wore urging the nnmo
of L. C. Baldwin for nomination as
mnyor. Mr. Baldwin declares that ho
will not consent to the consideration of
Ids nnmo oven , ami objects to even being
thought ot in tliis connection , much less
would ho nllow.lils iitimo to bo used in a
con vein t Ion.
Another subject of yesterday's gossip
was the possible declination of John W.
Chapman to run for mayor. It was re
ported that ho had declared that in case
the ropttblicansmado another nomination ,
ho would draw out of the race.
The democrats are rather jubilant over
tlio prospect of getting the republicans
divided up by having the citizens' ticket
and ( ho straight republican ticket in the
field , feeling that this would ensure the
election of the democratic ticket. The
citlxons' ticket seems to bo falling to
pieces , nnd if the republicans make a
ticket , and Colonel Chapman withdraw ; ) ,
there may bo a cliango in tlio situation
which may turn the laugh onto the other
side. It may be that the democracy may
have a double ticket , thoVatiglmn faction
leading one , and the Bowman faction the
other. Such were some of the possibilities
nlked over yesterday.

The Police Investigation ,
The mayor tlocs not seem to be in a
great hurry to act upon the report of the
council committee which investigated the
police and found the charges against
them true. The mayor says that the men
arc not satisfied witli the result of the se
cret investigation by the committee , and
want an open ono before Judge Ayles-
worth. Thcro the matter rests. The po
lice force is going on as before the inves
tigation' and report , and will probably
continue until after the election. It is a
skittish * , time for the mayor to do any
thing , and the others concerned are evi
dently liot over-anxious to have anything
done. , Jt was supposed that the mayor
would have enough backbone to either
declare Iho report of the committee as
unjiist"or , to lay off the officers concerned
until he could 'investigate , or accept the
report and dismiss the guilty ones. The
mayor has always boasted of his activity
and promptness , but this docs not seoiu
to him a good time to be over-active. Ho
was out of the city when the investigation
was in progress and now ho does not
seem to want to got mixed in it. As the
head of the police force , with full power
over it , it seems straifgo that he docs not
show some of his vaunted activity and
quickness. The men if unjustly u.cd
sliould not be kept under a cloud , and if
guilty should not bo kept on the force.

MASON WISE.
Forcing tlio Saloons.
The city council last Saturday passed a
resolution instructing the marshal to
serve notices on tlio saloons to pay their
licenses , and in case of failure so to pay
up to report them to tlio city solicitor. In
other words the city council proposes to
have the saloons pay a license or clso
have the city commence action to compel'
them to put up or shut up. The mayor
threatens to veto this resolution. The
marshal had not commenced serving the
notices yesterday , and the resolution
seems to fall rather dead. It is not very
likely that under the present feverish
political state of affairs the matter will bo
pressed very vigorously , The mayor will
hardly dare to veto the resolution , and
should ho do so ho would get little thanks
and make small capital out of a veto , as
the saloon men look upon it as spring
election buncombe anyway. There arc a
good many side plays now , and it is hard
to tell when men are in earnest.

Crows Who KIKMV a Uooil Homo.
Hartford ( Conn. ) Times ; A couple of
tame crows , which have been kept as a
sort of household pels by a New Hart
ford family , at length became such mis
chievous nuisancps and thieves stealing
ovcry bright and glisloning thing they
could pounce upon , including ladies'
jewelry of all kinds , and hiding it in dis
tant trees , and oico nearly making off
with a gold wiitcy that it became ex
pedient to got rid of them. They were
taken ( tied up in a bag , so that they
couldn't see ) to a vicco ol woods eight
miles distant , nml there liberated the
wagon being driven off in another
direction. Next day ono crow was back
again , limiting about the kitchen for
food , and showing every nvidonco of
great satisfaction at getting back , while
the cook joyfully welcomed him , and his
companion wasn't long in returning.
This firot returning wanderer was a
knowing fowl. When a hard , dry piece
of bread was given him ho would tuico
it off to Ills basin of water , put it in , and
let it soak a little. If , on taking it out ,
it was found to bo still too hard to suit
him , Mr. Crow would put it back and
with one foot hold it down under the
water for n good gillie , Then ho would
devour it very contentedly. If that was
not reason , what was it ?

An Ancoilpto oftho President.
Baltimore- American ; The president
oviduntly is wakm ? up to the idea that
ho has as yet made j appointment for
liimsclf at all , Tle other day n. congress
man from ono of the , Middle State went
to the white house to ask for an appoint
ment. The president received him cor
dially , as ho docs all the congressmen ,
but when the visitor began to talk about
appointments the pi evident gradually
began to caol and fin-ally cut tha visitor
short by asking liini what ho wanted.
"Only a chaplain in tlio nrmy , " was
the reply.
"Look here , " snid , the President , "don't
you think it Is about time that the ad
ministration should have some of the
offices itself } "
"Well , " replied the Congressman , un
daunted , "there are two chaplains. I'll
take one nnd the administration can have
the other. " i
"No , " replied Cleveland ! "Iho ministry
is a good place for the administration to
begin with. I think' I'll ' take them both. "
