Tlio new iron for the Broadway exten
sion of tlic street ear line is bcinjj ; laid on
the ground ready for the construction
gunjr.
North First street , from Broadway to
the. bridge , is now to bo paved. The
work of excavating is now being done ,
and ns soon as the curbing is set the
blocks will go down.
The paving of Fourth street will go
over until nevt seslhon. The present
sewer is defective , and llio city docs not
feel like bnilding > a now ono this year ,
: ii'.d the property owners will not submit
to liavinir a catch basin put in to serve us
a remedy.
The funeral of Mrs. John Newton was
held yesterday forenoon at the family
residence. Kov. Dr. McCreary , of the
Methodist church , officiated. The ser
vices were very tender and appropriate ,
anil the friends at their close conveyed the
remains to Fairview cemetery , wlicro
they were laid at rest.
Complaint is made that Grace street is
being so neglected that it is in horrible
condition for the feet and nose. The
Blenches which arise from that part of
the city are declared to bo so disagreea
ble as to cause travel to seek other thor
oughfares. An appeal is to be made to
the city council and to the board of
licalth to have the street cleaned and im
proved.
A new platform is bning put in for thn
scales at the junction ot Main anil Pearl
streets. This does not look as if the city
weighniaster was going to succeed in
getting these private-scales removed from
the street. So long as they remain the
official scales at the city building will not
do a very thriving business , and the oflice
of city weighniaster will continue to bo
more honorary than prolitublc.
P. McNulty , who stands charged with
having kept liis saloon open after hours
last Saturday night , was to have hud a
} ionring yesterday , but it was.put oil'
until next Tuesday. McNulty says there
was iv wedding that night , and about
forty of Jhu party were in his place about
closing up time , and that ho got them out
ns soon as possible. He purposes to have
the whole wedding party brought in as
witnesses to show this tact. The court
suggested that a dozen such witnesses
would do as well as forty , but McNulty
wants them all.
The city council was to have fniot
Wednesday night to hold an informal
consultation with J. C. Heugan , the pav
ing contractor , in regard to the balance
duo Mr. Reagan on his contract. Only
two or three aldermen put in un appearance -
anco , and the matter was deferred until
the meeting of the council this evening ,
llio claim is an important ono and has
been hanging on the hook for months
past without any dclinito action being
taken. Mr. Reagan is naturally anxious
to have the city say whether the claim
Will be paid or not , so that ho can decide
what to do.
Dcatli or Mr. Tlionms Croon.
Thomas Green , an old and prominent
resident of this city , died yestorduy after
noon at his home , tlio cause being soften
ing of the brain. Mr. Green began to
fail in health some time ago , and a few
weeks since ho w.-.s taken 'to the asylum
at Mt. Pleasant for treatment , his bruin
being evidently affected. About a week
ngo ho returned , his physicians being
satisfied that there was n softening of the
brain and that the end was drawing near
rapidly. The announcementoi his doatli
comes with some surprise to the com
munity , outside of the immediate circle
of friends and relatives , as few know
that his condition was so serious. The
family and immediate friends wore , how
ever , somewhat prepared for the sad
blow. His condition while at Mt. Pleas
ant became so alarming that word was
sent them and they went after him bring
ing him homo last Monday. Since then
ho has kept sinking until about 4 o'clock
yesterday afternoon when death came to
hifi relief ,
Mr. Green was a native of Kngland.
Ho had resided in this city for about ( if-
teen years past. During "his early resi
dence hero ho was engaged in the lumbar
business , and then established the pack
inghouse which has made his name a fa-
inijinr one throughout the western coun
try. In this business his sons havobeen
connected with him. Besides his wife he
leaves four sons , Riohurd , Robort.Thomus
nnd George , and throe daughters , two
jiving at homo , the other the wife of Mr.
T , II. Jackson , of this city. Mr. Green
was ; i man of much business ability ami
many manly vhtues. Hlsdeath will bo
mourned by many , nud it certainly is a
loss to the city itself , which will bo felt
by biibiuess olroh-s. The family has the
lyinnathyof the community and the many
willing hands of friends will do all possi
ble to comfort them , and to pay mete
tribute to the memory of one wno is thus
' , lukeu away. _

The ease of John White for assaulting
3. Q. Anderson , Moratory of the Council
Bluffs Insurance company , has been hang

Improving the Ijiikc.
The move to organize a rowing asso
ciation has started with considerable en
thusiasm. A preliminary meeting has
been hold nnd a committee appointed to
solicit members , the fee being $ o. The
committee consists of Dr. Soybert.Charles
S. Person , ( J. W. Thompson. E. H. Odcll ,
E. H. Merriam and T. U. Baldwin. The
purpose of the association scorns to be
rather to secure needeil improvements of
Lake Manawa rather than to afford
aquatic amusements for a select fow.
Mr. Ma.xon claims that a ditch 200 feet
long and not costing more than $100
could bo cut from the present mouth of
Mosquitojcreck and turn the waters of the
creek into the lake south of Manawaand
that200 more weald provide dams for
both channels that would enable the
managers to control the creek nnd make
it of permanent bcncfit. ; The creek could
be turned into the lake when the waters
were clear and turned aw.iy when
muddy. Other needed improvements are
suggested , and there will bo doubtless no
lack of opportunity for the wise invest
ment of what funds the association can
at the present secure. It seems that Lake
Manawa is to bo made a permanent
pleasure resort , and to this end all will
heartily join in doing all in their power.
Ho Wanted to Apologize.
A Mondaniin man , giving his name as
Hank Willis and claiming to bo an at
torney , was in the city a few weeks ago ,
and while pretty well loaded with pop
went to Judge /Vylosworth's house and
tried to borrow a couple of dollars. His
condition was such that his request was
refused and ho staggered off. Ho lias
felt very much mortified about the affair
ever since , and yesterday he came to the
city again and thought ho would apolo-
gi/o to the nudge for coming to his resi
dence in such an unseemly condition. By
the time lie reached the judge's oOice ho
was fuller than on his previous visit , and
he staggered In and began telling his
honor that he ought to have been sen
tenced to thirty days for his conduct. Ho
thought the judge had greatly erred ,
though on the side of mercy , in letting
him go without some such sentence.
Soon after leaving the judicial odico
Willis wandered down to the city jail.
Ho was there recognized as having been
warned before to keep elf the streets or
else Keep sober. Ho commenced talking
Jerry Mullen to death , when Jerry
quickly took him hv the shoulder and
Jed him into ono of th"o colls. This morn
ing ho will doubtless not bo'so anxious
for the judge to sentence him to thirty
days for getting drunk and making a fool
of himself. It might do him good though.
Another Hack Robbery.
A man named Wells claims to be the
victim of a robbery Wednesday night.
Ho remembers very little about the afl'air
beyond Iho fact that ho wont to the beer
garden with a company of apparently
jolly fellows , and that ho treated once.
Ho had six or seven dollars in his pocket ,
nnd when he awoke in the police sta
tion yesterday morning his head was of
wash-tub size and weighed lite iron. He
thought he must have been drugged.
From others it was learned that a party
of young follows got him full , nnd then
in the hack had probably robbcu him of
what money ho had left , and then taken
him to the dummy depot where ho was
loft on the platform. The police could
not got very definite Information as to
the details of the alleged robbery , those
implicated in the affair claiming that the
fellow must have spent his mono ) ' in
riotous living instead of being robbed.
The police arrested John James , Johnnie
Jack , Will Jed'eries ana ono or two
others and propose to sift out the truth
of the matter if possible. There have
been several cases reported lately in
which fellows have got drunk and being
taken in a hack about town have found
their money mysteriously gone. If there
is a system of suoh robbery coing on It is
high time the guilty ones were ferreted
out and thu gang broken up.
An ExpeiiHlvo Whip.
Yesterday morning O. Woodward and
Henry Brown , tlio former white and the
'latter colored , and both hailing from
Gleuwood , wore arrested by the police
for stealing a fine whip belonging to H ,
H Kissoll. The colored man explained
that ho had taken the whip to drive away
a cow , which was roaming about the
yard where both wagons stood , and when
ho got through with it lie throw it carelessly -
lessly into the wagon , in which ho and
Woodward soon after wont over to
Omaha. Jlo did not think of the whip
until they reached the oilier sdo | of the
river , and intended to return it when ho
got back. On reaching this side an oU |
cer met Ilium and urrcatcd thorn. It
appeared that the colored man told hia
white companion that he had found the
whip on the street , and that when they
reached this sldo and were risked about
the whip by the olllcor , the men said they
had no whip. The olliccr found it lying
in the bottom of the wagon bov. Then
they cimmcnccd lo explain. The white
man was discharged and the colored man
fined , lie paid the cash , and will now bo
more careful how ho picks up another
man's whip with which to drive od'a
roaming cow.
Mnjor Ijyninn nt Home.
Hon. Joseph Lyman , member of con
gress from this district , arrived home last
evening. Ho is looking well , nud re
ports Ins health as having been quite
good during his stay in Washington , with
the exception of two or three days , but
even on the o days ho was able to be in
the house and lo attend to his duties. Ho
has found the duties of n member of con
gress many and varied , but ho has borne
them well , as ho has been used to hard
work. Whatever is snM or thought of
Major Lyman politically ho certainly
takes a conceded rank among , the hard
est workers , and from all accounts he has
shown the same indefatigable applica
tion In his altundanco upon the duties of
his new position as a congressman.
He Is heartily welcomed back to the city ,
and ho must feel gratified in returning ,
in view of tlio fact that the republicans
have renomlnated him , this time by ac
clamation ami unanimously
Lust evening a large number of
citlxens , headed by a band proceeded to
Major Lyinan's residence and tendered
him a welcoming serenade. After several
finely executed pieces had been played
by the band the honorable gentleman
responded in a few remarks thanking
his friends and neighbors for their kind
consideration nnd expressing his ap
preciation of the manner in which his re
turn was made prominent.

KowdlcB nt the
There have been several complaints of
late in regard to the rowdyish actions of
some of those who have visited the lake.
On Wednesday night there was a sicken
ing example. A colored and a white
man were together , and they
made It disagreeable for all within hear
ing of their voices. They were both
drunk and quarrelsome , and their lan
guage was disgustingly vulgar and pro
fane. There seemed no one whn felt in
duty bound to throw the two i owdles into
'
tho'lako , or cart them to the police sta
tion , and for a time the two fellows had
everything their own way. There
should be some arrangemuts by which
such fellows would bo removed speedily ,
and the rights of the orderly citizens and
worthy ladies duly protected. A few
s uch exhibitions of rowdyism will serve
to drive the better people away.
Such conduct is not encouraged , or
countenanced bv any of those who have
charge of any part of the lake and
grounds , but tticre seems no well organ
ized arrangements bv which such charac
ters can bo placed beyond bounds of
where the decent people should be enjoy
ing themselves.

Slow Trlnl ofSwift.
The young man Swift , of Avoca , who
js charged with having robbed Stnnb ,
the Avoca brewer , was to have had his
examination finished before Judge Aylcs-
wortli j'cstorday. Ho was not quite
ready , however , and the case was con
tinued until the 20th. Bail has been fixed
at $000 , but as he is unable to give it the
young man will have to wait in jail. It
is understood that the defense will be to
the ofl'eot that Staub dropped his watch
in the alloy back of Keating's store , and
that while Staub was gone after an olliccr
to have him arrested ho hunted for the
watch and found it. He was on his way
to the police station with it when the of
ficer met him and arrested him. Whether
this explanation will let him out remains
to bo seen. A railway ticket which Staub
claims was stolen from him was found in
the gratmir in front of the city building.
Ono supposition is that Staub dropped it
there from his pocket , while the other is
that Swift in being taken to jail slipped
it down there , so that it might not be
found en his person and thus prove his
guilt.

IlttyttiK Houses on lOnsy Terms.
Philadelphia Call : "If those easy terms
houses were just what they look to be , "

bo perfectly square. Hut that is the cost-
y rub. For iiKStaneu , vou want to buy a

That's easy , isn't it ? Just takoyourpcn-
