The liromcn are planning a ball on Thanksgiving. The city council will lake a rest until next Tuesday evening. The cracker bakers of Hie city give a ball at Temple hall on the 15th. The Kitnper given by Ihe Y. M. C. A. last evening proved a happy success. DA new Jewelry store is being opened by M. Wollmaii at No. 831 Broadway. A. S. Clouso enjoyed the distinction yesterday of being the only drunk lined in police court. The carpenters of the city are forming n union , which promises to be one of the strongest in the city. The fire alarm polcsMiavent last arrived , nnd now the new svstem will not be long in gelling into active operation. The Iowa grain men are at the Ogden for a regular meeting of their associa tion , the proceedings of which are kept rather quiet. The ladles of the German Catholic church will give a sociable In the Danebo hall , on Main street , to-morrow evening. Everybody invited. The Episcopal social was held last evening at the residence of Simon Else- man. It was one of the most enjoyable and successful of the scrica. Last evening was a popular one for so cials. One was given at the residence of P. H. Wind by the members of Ihe Saints' diurch and congregation , The revival meetings are still being continued at the mission , comer of Sev enteenth street and Fourth avenue. This is the four Ih week ot these meetings. Mr. G. II. Nichols , who works for Lund & Davis , lias been united in marriage With Miss Nellie Walsh , a music teacher of Chicago. Justice Hcndricks officiated. One lady attending tliefuneral of John Kost yesterday fainted away in the ceme tery , causing some little stir , until it was discovered that there was no serious cause of her sudden falling to llic ground. The case of AV. S. Hobmson. arrested for stabbing Andy Neallv , is set in i'ramoy's court for the ICth/but it is un I derstood that there will be no prosecu tion. tion.The The county board of supervisors com pleted the canvass of the election .yes terday , and proceeded then to the consid eration of general business , which will keep them in attendance for a day or two yet. As an outcome of the lively row be tween a lot of colored folks on Broadway , Jacob Washington and John Brakcrwero yesterday lined , and the disposition of the oilier cases postponed until the matter could be further examined into. Union Pacific engineers began yester day anew survey for a route from the transfer to Main street , seeking lo avoid coming up Tenth avenue. The result will be reported to the company , and the matter win come up before the council of the city next week. Yesterday Mary Murphy , who has been a domestic in Iho family of J. M. Phil lips for twelve years , was taken to Mount Pleasant for treatment. She lias been lately showing signs of mental derange ment , and it is hoped that by care at the institution she may recover. At Atlantic the city scales pay the city about $25 a month. If the cily weigh- master hero was given the authority due him , and the council protected the oflii'o and the city's interesl as it should , this city would got as much more from this source than Atlantic , as Council Bin Us is larger in population. An old lady who lives near the North western romid house , is being cared for nt the city jail temporarily , it appearing lh.it she is deranged. livery ilay the want of a city hospital becomes more ap parent. The city jail is not a fit place for many of tlio eases necessarily brought there , but there seems to bo no other. The old man Lower , who was eonli- deuced out of if 15 several days ago , and went to Ida Grove on a visit , has re turned and went over to Omaha to iden tify a fellow named Adams , who is in jail there on a ten-day sentence , and who was suspected of being an accomplice. Lower says Adams is not one of the men wlio did him up. It seems to irritate the dear old grand mother because the BKK swears to its cir culation and publishes ils figures so that Rilvorlisors may know wlnt they are gelling. While the Bii : : swears to its cir culation the Nonpareil swears at its cir culation. The old lady can hardly bo blamed , for it is hard to create any de mand for a scrnpbook when there are so many real newspapers in tlio land. The funeral of tlio late John Kost was hold yesterday afternoon , and was largely attended. His brother Knights of Pythias attended in n body , and members of Ihe old fire doparlinent of which ho was a member paid duo respect to his memory. Many friends of the family joined in the services , which were conducted by Hev. Mr. Maekny , whoso remarks on the occa sion worn most touching and fitting.

Great Closing Out Snlc of silver plated wnro to inukti room for our now stook.Ve ofl'er our present stock regardless of cost. C. U. JA < : QUIMIN & Co. , No. 27 Main street. Off For Camifla. Considerable stir has been caused along the line of the Wabash railway by tne disappearance of H. B. McGregor , who has been the active partner in the lirm of McGregor 13ros. who have been handling grain and muiiing elevators between Council Bluffs and Imogcne. The nflair lias been kept rather quiet , there being some hope of finding the missing Mc Gregor and forcing him to some settle ment. It is now believed he has skipped out for Canada or some other safe re treat , and that he will not soon be made to reappear in Iowa. The firm had sev eral elevators ami did a very large busi ness. The first intimation tl.at anything was wrong was about ten days ago , when a bill of sale was given of all life prop erty to Uillingaley &Nanson , of St. Louis , the consideration being sjl'J.OOO. It is said that immediately after giving this bill of sale McGregor began shipping out gram and drawing on parties for the same , thus trying to reali/.e more money from what ho had already sold to the St. Louis house. The schema was discov ered , and about that time McGregor could not be found. A telegram was sent to this city for the police to arrest him here , he having been seen hero and in Omaha the day before. He was not to be found , nor could ho be traced , and the search seems to have been given up. McGregor came to Imogene about a year ago from Fairfield , where ho had been in the drug business. Ho was looked upon as a reliable and wealthy man , and he has done a great deal of business , and apparently in a satisfactoay manner until this break wan made. It is understood that a largo number of farmers are out small amounts , holding checks , or hav ing endorsed and passed them to others , who now fall back on to them to make thorn good. The shortage in all is esti mated as high as $15,000 , but it is thought that MrGregor did not take with him more than $5,000 in cash. The other brothcrof the firm is in the employ of the Wabash. being the dispatcher at Stans- bury. Ho claims ignorance of the entire matter , having given the business little or none of his personal attention , the missing McGregor having the entire management. Order your eoal and wood from C.

Ik'causo the burglars niudo a raid here the other night the republican organs begin to howl that it is the result of put ting democrats on the police force. Just how far such noncscnso will bo carried without falling to pieces by its own fool ishness , can hardly be estimated. There were some changes made in the police force which did not seem at all necessary or expedient , and were not in accordance witli the wishes of the citi/.ens generally , who felt that the old force was about as gootl a one as could bo secured. Still it M'cms nonsensical to try to make po litical capital nut thu fact that some houses have been entered by sneaks. The present force , like tiio ones preceding , Jiuve too largo n territory to cover , Eaeli man at night is expected to look after a whole ward. In the largest cities where the beats are shorter , anil watchmen plenty , there are burglaries committed , The Hr.E believes in treating the now force fairly and squarely , and will bo one nf the first to .score them for any known neglect of duty , but it is not ready to jump up anil howl that burglaries are plenty because there are democratic- po licemen on the force. It leaves that sort of nonsense for the old grandmother anil her evening echo.

It is a singular fact that the ofiicial canvass shows only fiSG votes for Justice Hcndricks , who run as an inde pendent candidate. The uuollloial re turns of the Ur.B the night of election gave him 074 votes , and one procinet , the lirst of the Fourth ward , not hoard from. The vote in that precinct wu not counted in full until 3 o'clock the next day , and the board of that precinct docs not report a single A'ote cast for Justice Hcndricks. lie must have had a large number of votes in that precinct , but none arc returned from there for him. In the First prceinet of the First ward Jus tice llonil ricks received 12G ! votes , as shown from the tally sheets , but in mak ing the returns the board of that precinct omitted his name entirely. If these 100 votes were added to the 5)0 ) , as they would have been but for the carlessncss of the clerks , Justice llendrieks' vote would have been 632 , and the First drccinct of the Fourth ward to be heard from. This would swell the number to a hand some showing for one running on an in dependent ticket , for a position which would not warrant the expenditure of much money , work or time to secure. It was a strong endorsement for him , and a stinging rebuke to those who schemed the ticmocratic township convention in Frainoy's interests. Had these blunders not been made in the two precincts named , the result would not piobably have been all'ecti'd , but in many cases such blunders would have caused serious trouble. _ _ Wall paper , shades , paints , etc. II.

EARLY TIMES IN INDIANA. The Profits of Trapping Fifty YcurH A co. Indianapolis Journal : "I suppose , " said George W. Pitts , "that I am about the last man that ever did an ) ' trapping that counted for anything in money here round about Indianapolis , Icame to tins town from Centrevillo , Wayne county , whore Governor Morton came from , and was born there in the same year that ho was. I commenced trapping about this town with my father in 1838 as a boy only fourteen years old , and made a business until , 1840 of hunting and trapping. I used to take my traps and lloat down White- river , staying down until the streams fro/.o up , I know all the hollow sycamores along the river , and many a night have I slept in them with a big fire blazing out in front. I trapped mnsurat , mink , 'coon , otter and fox , 'Coon ' skins paid best. I gave a cow and a calf to old Josh HinesTy in 1840 for a 'coon dog. He was a good "tin " , Many a time in one night 1 got enough 'coons witli him to pay for that cow and calf. The skins were fetching $1 apiece. Ho was the best dog I ever see , ami never lied. I always went' alone trap ping-as I never cared to give any man a chance to get into mv method. 1 made my living trapping. When \ was goiug to school to the old Marion county seminary I kept up my trapping on 1'all Creek tind on the river as faf ns MeCarly's fatm. I made enough money oiltsido of school hours to pay my schooling anil something over. During tho' winter , while going to school , I caught one night in Pogue's Hun , near its mouth , three otter at one slide and one about where the belt now crosses the rum Although in ' 45 1 cleared ns high as .f00 a week trapping between this town and WaVerly , down the river. The river was better than Fall Creek , because - cause the bottoms were wider and the settlements couldn't got so near to the haunts of the atlhjials. I think I caught the last otter trapped In Marion county. That was in 19H ) , up on Fa'l ' Creek , about a mile north of the fair grounds. I got $13 for the skin. There are a few otter down about Worthington yet , and 1 think I'll take my traps down there one of Ihcso days. In those tlavs wild tur- key.s wore plenty all around town , es pecially north of town , along in the Fall creek bottoms. 1 have shot gobblers weighing twenty-two pounds when cleaned. 1 used turkey to bait for coon nnd mink : parsnip is the best for musk- rat. In 18K I killed a deer , a big buck , on the river twelve miles below town. Around Crown hill used to bo , along about MO , a snlemlld place for turkeys and squirrels : some deer there , too. Any man who could shoot at all could calculate on get ting fifteen lo twentv squirrels in nn hour or so in the afternoon , I often used 'em to bait with. Thev were a great pest to the farmers. In 144 or Mfi they came traveling through here from the north , scores and scores of 'em. I'ro seen them swimming the rivers in great droves , anil stood on the bank witli a club and killed them. They would come out right at one's feet exhausted nnd hardly try to get away. They were very lean and seem to have been starved out. They were the old-fashioned gray squirrel. I'ov squirrels were rarely seen then , but about ' ' 15 they began to appear , and soon drove the gray squirrels out. The French Army. France has already a larger army than Germany , and the Germans admit that tlio French have 75,000 more men in their active army than they have. The French ' have 570 more guns 'than the Germans but the German cavalry is superior to that of the French. The French army on a peace footing amounts to about 500,000 men , but on a war footing it can call to gether over 2UOOOuO of soldiers who have been fully trained , 100,000 more have been partially trained and over half a million who are untrained. Its army on a war footing would number over 4,000,001) , ) . or fully 20 per cent of the male population of France.
