The nlllec of the Anipricau District telegraph on North Alain .street is rapid ly itpproaehing completion , and will bo one of the neatest and most convenient in the city. The inteiior is lilted in cherry and haul pints oiled. At a meeting on Monday night of the loininittct ) appointed to devise means of fiiisii ! { money for the suH'erer.s by tbo strike in the southwest , it was decided to report at this K. of h. , meeting this ovi'ii- ing in favor of holding u ball o-rly in May. Yesterday noon the 1 o'clock dummy train was detained about half an hour by the lowering of tbo track on the east end of the bridge two feet. When completed , the track at the east end of the bridge will be six feet lower than it has been heretofore. ( Joorgo Gilfeather received a very severe kick from a colt which laid his nose open the entire length and part , of bis upper lip. Dr. F. L' .

Yesterday , for the first time since the Wabash has been changed to the Council liltifTs iV St. Louis railroad , the pay car left Council Blulls. W. L.

On Thursday evening a quadrille party is to bo given nnd the ladies hope to entertain the dele gates of the Irish National league state convention which begin their sessions in this city on Thursday. The prospect is good for a crowd at the opera house next Sunday evening at the Christian convention , and to avoid any confusion arrangements have been inado by which a chart will bo placed at Bushnell'.s to-morrow , and those who de sire to bceure .seats can reserve them in advance. There will be no charge for admission , the services being free in all respects , but this arrangement is for tbo purpose of accommodating many. An other airangemeiit is that while children are invited to attend , they must bo ac companied by their parents , or by other thrown persons. Children not accom panied tints will be refused admission. The ticket men at tiie transfer need grace these days. The rebate was de clared on"on all tickets bearing ditto fiineo the 24th , and yet many are coining in from sin rounding towns , stepping up to the window with all the assurance of a reporter , only to bo surprised to learn that rates are restored , and tbo orders for rebate tickets are of no account. The agents in some of the places evidently did not receive the notice : us soon as they should , and wont right on selling to tbo Innocents , who only found outtho change on getting here.

The Entertainment Excellent and the Dis play in Booths Varied , WOL.VE5 A BIG PAYING CROP. Bonth of the Sick Ulvcr Voynftor A Glnnco nt the County I'ermlt.s for Medicinal I'urposcs Tlio Concert. Ilic Sisters' Knlr. The Sisters' fair is progressing nicely , aim Is proving a.success. The people are being furnished some most excellent on- lortainmcnts , al o. The operetta of "Fuirlos and Interviewer , " as given at the opera house , caused much enthusi asm , and called forth much just praise. It certainly was one of the most pleasing entertainment ever given in this city by children. The operetta is based on the adventures of an inveterate interviewer , who seeks to pry into some of Uio secrets of fairyland. .1.11. MoWIHiams , as this prying newspaper reporter , made a happy hit. It is difficult to see how he could have made more out of his part had he been a professional .uul experi enced comedian. Mi s Jennie Keating , as queen of the fairies , looked ami sang likoa little queen indeed. Miss Sophia ( turner also took a prominent part , and look it well. Tommy Keating , as the little doorkeeper of fairyland , created much enthusiasm. That such a little fel low could act so well , speak his lines so clearly , and keep his role so consistently and easily throughout , was a marvel. Miss Celia Hughes and Ms.s ! Josie Dur- nan also had loading parts and added to the success and enjoyment of the whole. The costumes and the scenic ellects were really fairylike , and some of the scones were most beautiful. Especially was the May pole dance , with tbo many little ones , so merrily and gracefully whirling about , with the intertwining and weaving ribbons of varied colors , a scene wnioh called forth much applause. The sight of the grotto , iillud with bright fairies singing their silver bell chorus , each fair hand .swinging a .silver boll , was another of the beautiful features ot the entertainment. It is : i matter for con gratulation thai the management has de cided to give the entertainment as a mat inee next Saturday. Those who were unable to attend before will suiely not miss tbo coming chance , and many who did enjoy it will gladly attend its repeti tion. tion.This This evening another operetta is to bo given , "Divs Rehearsal. " it will doubt less bo fully as enjoyable as the other one. The cast is as follows : .Miss Jones ( I'llncipal of the Academy ) . . Miss ICtite ( ieiucr Mate.

Complaints arc made that the drug stores tire in some places taking the place of the saloons , nnd that the county permits.issued for others as well as drug gists , are being used as n cover for the il legitimate sale of liquor , The BEE man asked the county auditor yesterday for the privilege of looking at some of the re ports of sales , which tbo law requires to bo lilcd every month by those holding permits to sell for medicinal , scientific , mechanical nnd sacramental purposes. "There they arc , Help yourself. Yon nro the first one 1 guess that has over looked at thorn. Nobody pays much at tention to them. " The appearance of many of those re- portb indicated that such was probably the case. Some of the reports are swoiu to , as the law requires , others nro not. The blanks nroyido for a showing of the amount of liquor sold , to whom sold , the purpose for which it was to bo uscd the price , the amount and kind of liquor ou hand , and the amount purchased during tbo month. Hardly a report covers all these points , in almost every case one or moro of the matters being omitted. Others are written in manner which makes the reports as dillicult to read as the marks on u tea chest. The documents themselves gives evidence that in the minority of cases the matter is looked upon as a mere formality , to which little attention is to be paid. It seems largely a case of mere ly going through the motions. Another interesting feature of tiicso re ports is the showing of ill health which prevails in this county. . By glancing through the purpose for which these liquors have ueen pnrchascxl. "medici- li.tl" is the favonto one. .There jnust bo a great many invalids in the County , and ' with tliu frequency with'whiuh ou some reports the same name appears , Indicates that there nro many chronic cases , in which the nersislont ami liberal use of ptlmulnntM is sorely needed. It is also uoticablc that in the little places where there nro no saloons thevo nro a larger number of these invalid" , the remo\al of the saloons evidently having n tendency to uialtu such places extremely unhealthy. Tlicsfl repons'cumv ; : ! with the require ments Of the law iloubtlc < s , I'll ! thntthoy leave plenty of opportunities for covering up many of the real facts of the tralllc , tbcro is no doubt. The reports make hi- tciestlng reading to those familiar with the men and the places to which they re fer. _ Go to Beard for room mouldings. I sell tbo celebrated Twin Burner gaso line stove.

On Sunday a man was found on the river bank in an unconscious condition. He was taken to tbo city jail , and tbero was restored to consciousness siillicicnlly to give the information that ho was a blacksmith named Brunswick. He had come down the river in a row boat from Sioux City , and was intending to stop with tricnds in Omaha , and then proceed to St. Joe. Ho seemed to be sulVoring with a congestive chill , and and it was expected that in a short time ho would be able to go across the river. Ho has been growing worse instead of better , and yesterday bo was in an alarming condition. It seems dillicult to get at the ical ailment ot the man , and as bore- mains much of the time in a stupor , re fusing to take medicine or nourishment , it is dillicult to do for him. Marshal Guauella yesterday got the man's boat and elVects up from the river. The effects consist ot an excellent set of blacksmith tools , bellows nnd anvil. Uno of the Council Bl nil's residents , who had seen an account of the man in the Bii : : , and who was in Sioux City Monday , took thopajns to make .some inquiries there about him , but could not learn that ho was known there. A box which contains some of bis tools is marked Sioux City , and was evi dently got from some store there. It is feared that the man will die here , unless there is a speedy change for the bettor. LATIH : The unforluuato man died shortly before ! > o'clock last night His ' inotio'r ! and aunt , hearing of hisVieUness , arrived hero yesterday and weie with him when ho died.

Ijast Night's Concert. 'Iho concert given last evening by the Mendelssohn Quintette club , was all that was promised for it , and moiv. The au dience was enthusiastic , and could not help but be. The company is composed of artists , and each a soloist worthy of appearing before the most critical audi ence.

She lias a soprano vo'co ' of considerable stiength and much sweet ness She sbow.s cultivation and much uatiu'al endowment as ahongstross. The programme was an excellent one , varied , yet all the numbers were of a high order , without being so high as to be beyond the appreciation of the popular taste.

Yesterday there were eight wolves killed right back of the Masonic building , within the shadow of tbo rooms whore the county ollieials sit anil pay out two dollars bounty on each wolf scalp. These eight wore brought in from Lewis town ship by Mr. Peterson. To bo sure they were young tilings , nnd couldn't ' leave their mother , but thev were cnrtured while their eyes were still closed and tbeir mother oil'foraging They were brought in alive , and then taken to the rear of the building , killed , their scalps lilcd , and their Imdor wont oil' with sixteen good dollars in his pocket. Of late theio has been a good many of these baby wolves caught , and at two dollars a niece it pays better to raise wolves than sheep.

But nt the same time we beg the public to understand ( no matter what our competitors say ) that we are not running a gift enterprise. You do not pay us a fraction of a cent for the chance to get the present. We are selling our A. 1 ] . C. Soap cheaper to-day than we ever did during thc three years that it has been placed on the market , and consequently you get full value in Soap , We are simply ADVERTISING our A. B. C. Soap on the most mngnificcnt scale ever attempted by any one firm. Three years ago \vc started out to sell A. B. C. Soap on its merits , to-day thousands of the most intelligent housekeepers in this and all the principal cities of the Union use our A. B. C. Soap and marvel why it is not used in every home , The principal grocers throughout the Union tell us one reason why its use has not become genera ) is that has not been sufficiently advertised ; and another reason is , because many people who have bought it , diil not give it the Accessary and intelligent attention it deserves. They did not read the directions , and finding that it would not wash by 'laying A. B. C. Soap on top of the bundle of soiled clothes , they fell back to five cent soap. Thousands wri * \ s : "Your A B. C. Soap is all that you claim for itj it not only gives satisfaction , but we find that our most intelligent customers say that u Is Au BLESSING- THE HOUSEHOLD and arc enthusiastic and speak in the highest terms of praise about it. Why don't you advertise it ? " It is therefore that we are making this extraordinary effort to bring A. U. C. Soap to the notice of every intelligent person and in order to induce every one to buy it , and continue to use it until they have fully tested its merits , we say to them SA.VE THE ABC WRAPPERS And send them to us during the months of June or December next , and we shall distribute among you an array of presents which , for magnificence and usefulness , surpasses everything heretofore offcicd by any cue firm. Send four cents in stamps and we will send you a catalogue , which is now in course of preparation , which will give you a full description of all the presents and the mode TO OBTAIN A PRESENT Those who have not used A. B. C. Soap , of course , will ask , "what is it ? " A. B. C. Soap is our own invention , and all who have used it cbeei fully concede to it the merit of being the greatest improvement ever made in domestic economy. A. B. C. Soap , and the MODE OF WASHING WITH IT , is as different from all other soaps , and the old way of washing , and is as Much an improvement over the old system , as traveling by railway is over that by an ox-cart. A girl of 18 , or the most delicate peison , can wash WITHOUT THE LEAST EXERTION. ji ono hour , more clothes with A. B. C. Soap , than the most robust , with the hardest work and slavish toil t tn wash with the best soap , and the old way of washing , in thiee hours. And withal , A. B.C. _ Soap is t\ie \ mildest and sweetest soap ever manufactured. We warrant you can wash baby with it and it will look js bweet and fresh as a rose. llcmcmbcr , that while ymt can use A. B. C. Soap in anyway or manner you please , it is best to use t * ncrording to the directions on the wrapper , which will also leacb you the new way of washing.
