A sensational scandal is said to bo
brewing at Karragut , the parties con-

The afl'air is said to have been hushed for
the present , but that the grand jury will

The Home steam laundry on Saturday
received a 'J.800 pound mangle. The ma
chine is eight feet long , and takes such
goods as sheets , tablecloths , etc. , right
Irom a wringer , and , after pressing them
between four rollers , come out dry and
all ironed.
It seems that although the authorized
poll tux collector , Mr. licckman , has but
one arm , having lent the other in the

Another of the old street cars rejected

serious consequences might result. If
such nars arc to be used at all , they
should be changed so as to permit pas

William Keith , who has boon a conduc
tor on the Chicago , Milwaukee & St.
Paul over since that road has run into
this city , died Friday afternoon at his
home in Marion. Ho leaves a wife and
CEO son.The remains were taken Satur
day to Milwaukee , , ' , ' 'lS former home , and
will bo buried under the ansnicuS CI " 'o '
Knights of Pythian. Mr. Keith had a
surgical operation performed upon him
about aycok ago , in the hope that it
might possibly relieve him from certain
troubles , but it was in vain , and ho grad
ually failed until death relieved him from
furt nor sniveling. He was well known
here , and leaves many friends , not only
in railway circles , but among the travel
ing public.
Mr. E. Do'ffling has closed out nearly
all of his dry goods stock , the romainmg
goods having been packed and stored
temporarily. Mr. Uowlini * has been in
the retail dry goods business many years
in this city , ami until he commenced his
closing out carried one of the linest
Blocks , and in some lines , silks for in
stance , has carried one of the largest
and linest stocks in the entire west. One
of the reasons for his going out of the
business is the demands made upon his
time and attention by larger and moro
profitable enterprises. Ho expects soon
to visit the west , where ho has largo stock

The Scandinavian Uaptist church is to
* bo dedicated next Thursday , This Is the
finest church building owned by this denomination -
nomination in the west. The pastor ,
R'JV. Mr. Keiehcnbaeh , has worked with
might and main , and the success ot the
enterprise has been wonderful. The
church and congregation are not com-
posad of wealthy persons , and the neces
sary funds have been made up of mites ,
in the giving of which moro real gener
osity and stslf-sacritlco has been shown
than in the building of many moro pro-
tcntions churches. The building is n
credit to the oily itlso , and all should take
lively interest in seeing the last dollar
of indebtedness paid ell ° and the hocioty
placed on a strong linancial basis.

"Well , what about the order of the
chief of police closing up keno , lin/.iint
and stud poker ? " asked the Br.B man of tx
well known sporting elmructer.
"Jt will bo obeyed , J guess. Thny can't
help but obey It. It's tle.itl wrong ,
though , the idoti thtit most folks have
about these games bring worse than
others , i tell you ti fellow , if he has ti
mind to , cun rob at any of the games.
Poker , faro , and all of them can bo run
crooked if the house wants them rim thai
way. "
"What is the reason then there is so
much of uroar about kcno ? "
"Kono is peculiar in one way. Ono
homo generally has the big run. The
others try to htart a game , but ono place
is generally the place that pets tlio bulk
of the business. The reason is that where
the biggest crowd is , and the pots are thu
largest , there is where everybody wants
to go. They think there's a show to win
fcomething worth winning. They keep
Hocking there , and the fellow that has
tlio biggest crowd gets all the crowd.
Like they talK in .scripture : 'To him that
hath shall be given , and from him that
hath not shall be taken away that whlcli
ho hath. ' That's about the size of it.
Then , whom the crowd go to play kcno ,
the house gets moro to play at other
games. A fellow makes a nice little sum
at the keno table , and he has then some
thing .to play faro with. It is this
jealousy among the gamblers themselves
which starts all this trouble. "
"What is the game at which people
can get beat easiest out of their money ? "
" 1 tell you they can got the worst of it
in any of the games , if the man who
handles the cards is bound to bo crooked.
It don't pay to run a crooked house , or to
have a man deal a game who is crooked.
If ho robs the folks that play , the -first
thing yon know he will rob the house , if
lie gets a chance , and if ho don't got a
chance it don t take long for folks to get
tired ot being robbed , and the trade of
the liouse faus oil' . Then the house has
got to depend on roping in suckers and
lellows who are not on. Such a house
can't get any business from the folks that
live hero. They have to lay for strangers ,
and keep a gang of cappers to coax them
in. They get a follow to gu//.lo down a
lot of cheap whisky , and then just rob
him. If a notiso is bound to rob folks , it
don't make any dillerence what games
they play. "
Another citizen , who seems to have
been watching the passing events closely ,
remarked to the UEB man : "If the al
dermen had as much sand as the mayor
there would be a big change about the
gambling mill saloon business , lie
wanted the council to stand by him in
some proposed changes , but they thought
it was better to wait a while , and move
slow. The mayor wanted to have ordi
nances passed by which a gambling
house could not be connected with a sa
loon , and if necessary , not to allow the
gambling houses to be within a certain
safe distance from any saloon. This
would give a victim at least a chance to
catch his breath , by haying to go some
little distance to get a drink , instead of
having a bar f-o near the tables that a
fellow can keep up a lively business at
both , and bo kept lull of booze until ho
has lost all his money. Another move
the mayor wanted to do was to force all
saloons to do away with card tables and
chairs. As it is some fellows go in to
got a glass of beer , and they sit down to
pju" inst ono game of seven-nnor oucliro ,
to decide Who ] ] J ? V for the drinks
The fellow that get's stuClS civcn a
chance to play eon of coui.sc , and"so an
other game w had. The lirst thing they
know the forenoon is gone , instead of
having ono drink they are pretty mellow ,
work has been neglected , and money
wasted. If the saloons were so run that
fellows would go in and get what they
wanted , and then go out , and there were
no chairs or card tublcH. there would not
bo so much loaling. Thu council was
not anxious to sttum by the mayor in this
sort of a move , and bo the thing has gone
on as before.
"I'll give yon ono pointer. It will bo
many a year before Iowa has a license
law again , " bald one who had been in
directly interested In the saloon business.
"Tho drug stores are the ones who are
going to make the money now. The
druggists will have the handling of the
liquor business. There is no doubt they
will handle it better than the saloons
have , but they will make so much money
out of it that they won't over want to let
go. When there is any talk of having
any sort of license law , yon will lind the
druggists through the state joining with
the prohibitionihts to defeat such a bill.
They will add a good deal of strength to
thu prohibitionists , and will about succeed
In defeating any plan for licensing sa
loons. "

The X , Y , Ti. club , composed of young
ladles connected with the Congrega
tional church and society , has been pecu
liarly unfortunate In selecting dates for
their entertainments. Every time for
mouths pa&t , when an entertainment has
been announced it has rained or stormed
EO that the public could not Gt out to
give the patronage which the society liud
tho.rlght to expect , and which their ef
forts certainly merited. It has become
almost u certainty that if the X. Y. 2.
club fixes on n date for an cntertuinmeht ,
rain comes on that dato. Not long ago
the young ladles concluded that the
weather had settled , and so arranged for
a horseback ride nnd Hipper. The rain
came , nnd the affair was postponed. La&t
Friday it was to bo attempted again , but
the rain camo. The young ladies gave a
pleasant entertainment in the evening ,
hut all outside amusement hud to be de
ferred. So many of these ventures have
been spoiled by bad wcalhor , nnd eo
many prospective financial profits taken
away , that the society has now hit upon : i
plan for making up the losses of the past.
They will wait now until there has been
so much dry vyuather that everybody is
praying for ruin , and when the thira of
the land is urgent , they will pass around
n subscription paper and if the tlonr pro-
plo wfll Biibscnbp enough they will an-
nouuro nn entertainment. This will
bring the deferred rain , nnd the public
can at such a tiino aft'ord to pay well for
it. The entertainment will consist of un
umbrella sociable , lluch lady will bu
hidden bcncntli an umbrella , and the
young gontlcmcu will pick out their um
brellas , taking to supper whoever is
found beneath it. The X. Y. / . club does
not propose to bo ruined by unfortunate
weather , and this scheme will doubtless
bring many dollars into their trehsury.

Tom Orr , private attorney to Manager
Callaway of the Union Pacific railway ,
was in the city on Saturday again , and in
company with Mr. McConnell of th o
Uraut smelting works of Omaha , were
given a pleasant drive about the pity by
Park Commissioner J. J. Brown. After
finishing their drive a representative of
the Bun had a short conversation with
Air. Orr in regard to the improvements
that are about to bo nnulo in this city by
the Jnion Pacific He seemed rather
disinclined to talk on the subject , but
with his usual courtesy remarked : " 1
think our folks arc disposed to do some
thing for your city , but am not at liberty ,
or , in fact , 1 might say , 1 don't really
know what they will do. "
"Mr. Orr , wo feel as if the Union Paci
fic could give us better street car facili
ties \vith little expense , and at the same
time it certainly would bo n paying in
vestment. Do you think the ollioials of
the road look upon the schema to c.xtcnd
their street car tracks to Fail-mount park
witli favor ? " said the BKE man.
' 'Air. Brown was talking about that ,
and 1 think in the course ot a mouth or
.so you will see borne big changes for the
better.
"Ho , I cannot say if the street car
track will be laid on Tenth avenue or
not. 1 don't know what the arrange
ments arc to be. Possibly Air Callaway
will be oviv in a few days.

The little 0-year-older came home from
school Friday noon for his dinner , wild
with excitement and gushing with enthu
siasm ,
"I toll you we've got a big strike down
to the Bloomer building All the boys
are going to btrik'o. They're getting
their names signed now , and this after
noon I'm going to give 'cm my name. "
"What's the strike about ? "
"Why , we're lust going to have school
from 8 o'clock ' in the morning until 1
o'clock , and wo ain't going to have any
school in the afternoon , but just play all
the afternoon every day. Won't that bo
jolly , though ? "
"But what if the teachers do not let
yon ? "
"Why , they'll have to. I tell you
there's about a hundred beys that are
going to strike , and they will knock the
teachers jiibt silly if they don't ' let
them. "
When the Jittle fellow came homo from
the afternoon session , anxious inquiry
was made as to the success of the .strike.
"Oh , rats ! The boys who had written
their names had to bit on the front scat ,
and the rest of them laughed at them.
They ain't going to lot out the schools in
the afternoon. The boys say the strike is

There is some talk of the clerks cm-
ployed in the retail stores ol this city
forming an early closing association.
The movement will probably bo started
to-day. Heretofore every summer there
has been an agreement drawn up and
prcscntcci tC t'10 ' different merchants to
sign. In most every Inslf. CC tllc a 9c'
ment has been signed by a laigo niaji/ " 1
of the merchants , but by a few refusing
to sign It the consequence has been that
all tlio stores have been kept open until 8
or 0 o'clock in the evening. The clerks
think if they can get an organization
composed of u few of the clerks in each
of the stores that after thoroughly exchanging -
changing views on the subject the clerks
in each store can influence their employ
ers better than by asking them to sign a
binding agreement.

The committees of Srr ( ngoiucnt for tlio

nnd decided to hold iho Cervices on Sun
day , Slay 80. The sta'ta commander rec
ommended the holding of services on
Monday , in conformity with the sugges

mittee hero have decided in favor of hold
ing them on Sunday : for several reasons.
They lind there are but few who do not
favor the holding of the services on Sun *
day , and these lew , the are confident ,
will feel differently Whcii assured that the
services will bo of "a religious nuturo
rather than of a hilarious holiday charac
ter. It is proposed tH have all the ser
vices arranged as to bo in keeping with
the day. Several posts in places near
Council Blull's are to arrange to observe
Saturday , while others will observe Alon-
lay , and such expect to join in the ser
vices hero on Sunday. The state com
mander has been consulted concerning
the day , and writes the committee that
ho sees no objection to having tlio ser
vices held hero on Sunday , provided it is
tlio will of those concerned and the ser
vices are arranged in conformity with the

Another Cut in Hates.
On Saturday morning the local agent
of the Chicago , Alihyaukco vfe St. Paul
railway received notice to reduce the second
end class faro to Chicago to ? 8.00.
It will be. remembered that on the Sat
urday previous , this same road made a
second class rate to Chicago , it being
the only second class rate to Chicago for
a long while. All the roads running east
in the course of two or three days also
made a second class rate , and now the
Milwaukee comes to the front with an
other reduction.
None of the other railroad ticket of
fices had up to last night received orders
to "cut" from their $ .oO rate , but all the
agents say they will meet the ligures of
other roads , whether they have orders to
or not , : ilmy rate travel east is very
light and few tickets can be sold , no mat
ter how low the rale goes.
The Milwaukee rona seems to bo forc
ing the light , and if tlio other roads come
to the ? 8.00 rate , which they no doubt
will , the public may then look for a $7.00
second class rate to Chicago shortly.
