As it was tlio first gathering Of the kind in three years , it partook largely of tlio nature ot a revival , the principal ohjcct being to infuse now life in tlio old organ ization. None of the oflicers were pres ent , and tlio convention was called to order by , T. I ) . Calhoun , who made it the occasion of a humorous address. Some seventy-live editors paid membership fees for the year , nnil after a liltlo c.\perionco meeting , In which Messrs.

At the council meeting Monday night Mr. Webster presented new plans for : v sanitary sewer system in the central por- lion of the city , prepared at his request by Mr. McNuir. These plans provide lor a forty-two inch Main from Salt crook up O street to Seventh , with a tile branch of thirty-six inches on Seventh street to the nlloy in block 5'J. through the alloy to Eighth street , up Eighth to N , and up N to Ninth , connecting with a thirty inch tile branch along Is'inth street , gradually reducing In si/.o to twelve inches at block 120. TiTo branches on the Davis survey to the alloy in block 10 at O and Seventh streets , and east to Eighteenth , are also provided for. The estimated eoat of this work is iJ4j,000 ( , and it is urged that the property owners in the district men tioned can well aflbrd to make the investment , which would eall for a special tax levy of lifty mills. These sewers will give ample drainage to the business portion tion of tlio city for homo years , and when necessary can be worked into the Davis system should it over bo adopted. Tn pre senting tills plan to the council , Mr. Webster said ho was confident that the failure to vote the 8100,000 in bonds for the Davis system was duo chiefly to the lack of interest taken by those mostly concerned , and he would suggest that the matter bo now properly laid before the business men , and tnoir co-operation so- jlited. This drew out a resolution author- l/ing the sewer committee to confer with Iho class named , and report at the next session of the council. Under this reso lution Mr. Webster has called a meeting of business men for Thursday evening , at the council chamber , when the sewerage problem will bo thoroughly canvassed. A MATIXKK IN COUUT. "I want dat child , " shrieked Mary Johnson , u saucy looking wench in Judge Montgomery's court yesterday , after be ing arraigned with two other colored women for lighting in the Kelly block over the ownership of a measley looking kid. " 1'er can't have it , " retorted the other dun colored principal. "Yer know ycr BIIVO mo the child a yeah ago , and I'm gwino to keep it , 'loss ycr pay me a. dollar ji week. " "Yer bet yor sweet life I'm going to tiave dat chile , " retorted Mary. 'I'm no common coon , I ain't jedgc , for my hus band's owned twelve thousand dollars' wuth of nigger , an' it makes mo tired to lie 'hoeiated wid such miserable trash as dese. " When Juilgo Montgomery succeeded in rapping tlio disputants to order , he fround that Mary had given her child away some months ago , and now , on trying to gel it , was confronted by a bill for its keep , which she would not pay. The party wcro referred to the county court , whore they adjourned in force and nearly drove Judge Parker wild with their clatter. Both the wenches wcro yoluablo and abusive , and the modest magistrate breathed easier when they toolc his advice mid wont homo to steep over it. Mary's last words as she shot out of the door were : " 1 earn an 'oncst living , I do. an'I want that chile or I'll ' cut homebody into shoestrings , dat's jest the kind of a coon I am. " TWO inutiNO DAirairrKits. Liz/.io Uodil and Fannie Lanjrtow , the young girls who ran away from their homes Tn this city Sunday , were found at Fall-mount yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Beach , having a sort of spring picnic with the bloods of that western metropo lis. They had no excuse to make for their escapade other than a do&iro to bo free from parental supervision and to have a good time. The Dodd girl , who Is the elder of the two , has had tlio reputation of being fast for some tlmo past , but her companion seems to bo an innoceiityoung girl jiibt stepping into the path of evil , more from bad associations than from serious desires or intc'iitions of her own. Both the girls wnro held in the county court all day yesterday , awaiting a decision by their parents as to whetliui they should ue sent to the reform school at Kearney or not.

Judges Montgomery and Parker had n little coon matinee Alomlay , at which both magistrates WITO coin fnectl that an angry wench is undoubtedly the most in- fcolent and foul-mouthed person in tlio world , and no respecter of judge or law.

They Were Union Dinars. A statement which appeared in ono of the moining papers that the cigars sold at the ball of the Knights of Labor wcro uon union goods , is utterly false and was undoubtedly the work of mo unprincipled rival of tlio linn of Max Moycr & Co..who are the proprie tors of the cigar stand. All the domestic cigars which were sold last night were union labeled , and the only ones without the label were some which wcro imported and , hcnco. could not have boon made by the unions. The gentleman who had charge of the stand last night is himself a Knight of Labor , and ho declares that there was no dissat isfaction with tho" cigars sold , but only words of pi also.

McCoolc'H Version of the Recent Trouble K\nnilnliii for Pro motion , Gen. Howard yesterday received a re- ) ort from Gen. McCook , commandant at I'ort Douglas , relative to the recent arrest - rest of George Q. Cannon. Dispatches from Salt Lake City state that the action of the military in assisting the marshal .o make the arrcsl , has aroused no lillle udlgimtion among the faithful , most of whom denounce it as an outrage. Ac cording to Gen. McCook's statement , iiowovcr , the measure was simply one of justifiable precaution. It seems that the marshal who was going lo arrest Cannon at Promontary feared personal injury uid asked , for his own protection , that a ; uard bo sent with him. Gen. McCook complied with his1 requisition and sent liim a guard of tfroiify armed men under a commissioned ofltccr , who wont on the train to Promontary. Gen. McCook says that the soldiers did not arrest , nor aid they act as a pos o comitatns. The re port has been forwarded to Gen. Soho- field for perusal. "This action1 of Gen. McCook's appears to haVe aroused a good deal of feeling , " n remarked ( Sen. Howard. "The * Mormons claim that it was unwarranted and outrageous , while the genlileJ are equally loud in their protestations that the measure was perfectly justifiable. What do I think about it ? 1 prefer to say nothing. " Major Robert It. , Hall , Maj. Danger- field Parker , Mai : iKent , Capt. Powell , and Capt.

Judge Neville , occupied the bench , and as court convened Dirtrict Attorney Estollo stopped forward to arraign the prisoners. The first case called was that of Charles Tracy , and after the indictment had been read the prisoner entered a plea of guilty , Patrick Boyland , the bo3' burglar , was Iho next prisoner arraigned , and also plead guilty to the indictment hrouglit against him. James B Campbell and James Christie wcro then arraigned on the charge' of highway robbery. Both entered a plea of not guilty. The state of Nebraska against John W. Lauer , for murder , was then called and as the prisoner arose and listened to the reading of the indictment all eyes turned upon him. The prisoner stood erect but his face was pallid and his eyes turning restlessly from place to place showed that ho was ill at case. When the react ing of the indictment was finished Judge Neville put the stereotyped questions to the prisoner , "What do you plend.guilty or not guiltyr"to which Lnuor responded in a low voice : "I plead not guilty " Layfayetto Powell , the Florence mur derer , was Ihcn arraigned for the kllliuir of Charles Leslie , and plead not guilty to the indictment. This completed the arraignment of prisoners , and District Attorney Estollo announced that ho would bo ready for the trial of Lauer on Thursday. Judge Thurston , however , preferred that the case bo not set until a week from noxl Monday , March 8 , as his health was such that ho could not at present proceed with the trial. The latter date was according ly agreed to and the trial set as the special order for March 8. The lir.it criminal case of the term was taken up yoilorday after the arrigmuent of prisoner * * , the culprit being Adolpli Peterson , the alleged fiorsothiof of Flor ence. The crime with which Peterson is charged is that of stealing , lust fall , a horse belonging to Michael Grillin. The animal was afterwards recovered in Oak land , where Peterson was trying to dis pose of it. Peterson plead guilty to the charge and was remanded for Mnitenco. TIII'3 CITY FATIlKrtS. They DlBUiiPs the Laborers' Wages from I'lirtlKuu Standpoints. The regular mooting of Iho city council was held hint evening , with a full attend ance of members. A largo amount of routine business was transacted and the session continued until a later hour than usual. The most interesting feature of the evening was called up by thu rcpoil of the committee which investigated the charges brought against Aaron Hoolfhc street cleaning contractor. As already stated in the BKE the commilteo found Mr. Hool's bill correct and so 'repoited. In discussing the matter , the Mibjocl of the wugus which Miould be paid by the oily to its laborers was brought up and the opinion of City At torney Council was biibmltlcd , holding that the city could not compel contract ors tojwy laborers $1.75 a day. Council man I'ord insinuated that the opinion was a biased one. Mr , Council being a re publican and in favor of paying small wages. Thereupon Councilman Furay moved that the matter bo referred lo Mayor Boyd , whoso democracy la undis puted , who should solnct two democratic lawyers to thoroughly investigate the legality of the caso. This inoiion created considerable political difcussion , in which packing and slaughter house do- moeracy came in for mention , but finally prevailed. A number of grade ordinances were passed and business of minor im- porlanco transacted , after which the council adjourned. Weather J"'or To-day , Jlissot'M YAI.I.UV.
