When the district conit convenes on tbo 10th of January , Judge Thorucll w ill probably hold com t in one of the rooms and Judge Dcomcr in another , br > that by the double barreled arrangement the business maybe fired through in a hurry. The city council meets in regular ses sion Monday night. These who Have bill against the city should Hlo the sarac with the auditor to-dav , in order to have them considered at the coming meeting. Although New Year's , the auditor will be at his dcsK to-day as usual. Tiie police nicked up a fellow at the dummy depot about 4 o'clock yesterday morning. lie gave his name as St. Luke jind appeared to be about half crank and the other half vag. He had nothing but n pocketknife , and the city relieved it self of further expense boarding him by recommending him to visit Omaha. Tom iJrooks seems not to have profited by the advice given him in court to let the woman alone with whom he has had j-0 much trouble. He has been reported as .still dctci mined to hang around her , and has been arrested for creating a dis turbance at Stella Long's , where the woman is boarding. The hardware , tin and storehouses here cntcicd into an agreement to close their places of business at 0 o'clock p. in. every day except Saturdays until the 1st of April , after which time until September they will close at 7 o'clock p. m. This will enable those engaged in these places to have their evenings to themselves. It is a good move , ami should bo followeil by other lines. It is amusing to notice in the sentenc ing of the prisoners to various terms in the penitentiary that the judge , in com pliance with the law , enters up judgment against them for the costs of the case. Nearly every one of the prisoners has to be furnished an attorney at the expense of the btato , being unable to pay one themselves , and yet the judgment is en tered up against thorn just as if they were millionaires , A prisoner , without a dollar lar in his pocket , and with a three years' term bolorc him , naturally cares little about going to the penitentiary , but wor ries greatly over the judgment ot costs. .

A NEW PROHIBITORY MOVE TliG Closing lny of tlio District Court A Novel Hoolal ( intlmrliig In \Vltli the New anil Out tt llh tlic Old , Saloon Cases. The injunction cases brought against he saloon men and others of the city were yesterday dismissed to tlic surprise if many , but there was little time given or any jiibllancy , as new suits were im mediately commenced under the Claik aw. It seems that the prohibitionists , tvlio have been backing these old suits , lave become discouraged at tlic dim'citl- ies attending those particular cases , and lave concluded to let them go by the board. They take a new hold , and what hey deem a ktror.gcr one , by the new nils. The attorney Is as before , Mr. acob Sims All the suits , which number hirty-onc , arc brought in tlio name of he .state of Iowa on relation of A. Over- on. They are brought both against the lieu who have the bars and the owners f the buildings.

On the petitions being filed Judge Loof- iiourow li\ed upon Monday , .January 17 , as the time for a hearing. Ho will not u-obably bo hero at that time , and the ascs will doubtless come up before cither Judge Thorucll or Judge Decmcr.

The doings in the district court yestor- lay consisted mainly in clcnriuc up tlie able preparatory to adjournment. The jury in the cuso of Wilson re- .urncd a verdict finding him guilty , lie s the young colored fellow who was might nipping Mr. Beer's overcoat from the hallway of Mr. L. 0. Baldwin's resi dence a month ago. He was sentenced : o nine months in the county jail and a line of $100. Edwards , the crook who tried to confi dence the elderly Ohio gentleman , was .irought before the bar to receive his sentence. Colonel Daily , as his attorney , nterposed technical objections to his aemg sentenced at this time , claiming : hat sullicicnt tlmp had not elapsed be tween the conviction and the sentence. Judge Loofbourow quickly acquiesced in the request for more time , and set the date for f-entencing at January 10. That is the ditto to which Adjournment of this term was docidcd upon. When that day comes Judge Loofbourow will probably bo on his way to California , as he now lakes a vacation. The queer change will therefore bo made by which the judge before whom Edwards was tried will not bo here to sentence him , the at torney who prosecuted him , Mr. Thor- neil , will tlit'ii be Juclno Thornell , and Kdward's attorney , Colonel Daily , who so ably defended 'him , will then be the district and proseeuling atloincy. Ed wards is evidently a hard crook , and the burglarious tools , as well as the two re volvers found upon him indicate him to be a desperado , and Iho jjubliu will be iv- licvcd to know that ho is placed behind the bars. _ See Moore & Kiplinger'a elegant nrcs- ents to their customers OIIP chTtnce with each Me purchasn. 411) ) Bioadway.

Yc terday was fraught with special in terest to all those in Council IJlufts who in any way handle intoxicating liquors , It will be remembered that some time ago there was a great scheme started to make the druggists and others holding county permits , forced to pay laigo amounts for alleged failure to comply with iho law requiriiig-montlily reports The penalty for not making a report ex actly as required by law is 1100 for each olVense , and one-half of this goes to the informant. The amount claimed under these suits was in the neighborhood o : 110,000. l-'iom tills it appears that the pri/o was one wortli fighting over , am the suits were prepared with great care Tlio defendants tiled a motion to dismiss , and thin was argued at length some time ago before Judge Loofbourow who took the same under advisement. Yesterday ho announced his dcolMon which was to the elVccl that the cases should bn dis missed. This knocks the bottom out o : the scheme , and the druggists and others interested breathe easier. The dismissal of the cases was founded on reasons al ready given to the public in the publish ing of the motion at the time of its tiling. The attorneys who have been lixmg up the suits will doubtless be somewhat dis appointed , but the sentiment outside 01 those directly interested is rather agaiusi the suits , as being more in tlio nature o : taxing these defendants for the benefit ol private persons that an attempt to en force law for the public good.

JUDGE GRESHAM. Some InuldcntH in His Career A Good Jiulyo of liumnii Nature. Many interesting incidents are told of resham's career , says the Cincinnati inquirer's Indianapolis correspondent. Jn the bench he is an excellent judge of iunian nature , and seldom mistakes his iiian. In the trial of criminal cases lie invariably has private talk with the ofi'endor. He questions a culprit closely , mil quickly detects any extenuating cir cumstances in his case. Upon ono oc casion a former citi/.en of high standing was tried and convicted in Ins court for icrpetrating frauds in the pension ollleo. The r.ian's wife and family were present anil the scone was a .sad one. The jury returned a verdict of guilty , ( iresliam called the prisoner to the bar , but , in stead of passing sentence upon him , said kindly : "Go home and spend the night with your family , and report to me at 10 o'clock to-morrow. You may not see your home again for a long time. " This extraordinary action caused much comment and some criticism , but the juilty man did not break the court's confidence. He was on hand promptly , and was sentenced to two years at hard labor in the Michigan City prison. With out exception newspaper men are staunch ricnds of Gresham. His uniform cour- osy and frank disposition win their fneml&hip. His outspoken manner in politics has naturally created some hos tility toward him in party ranks , and his success and gieatncss have in like man ner provoked joalousncss. Gresham , however , cannot DC justly accused of smallncss of character nor charged with doing an unmanly net. His contempt for things insincere and for petty politics is pronounced. The avciasc citixen here abouts. is quick to resent a personal lling at Gresham. Even those whoie tirst choice for president is Harrison denounce the warfare that has been begun against Gresham. One day Judge Grcsham was listening to a tedious argument in an important suit which was attracting public atten tion. A reporter of an Indianapolis paper was awaiting the verdict. The hour wa > , late and the reporter had many other calls to mike. Ho grew impatient , and finally , during a halt in the piocccdings , ho slipped up and whispered to the court ; "Say , judge , how are you going to de cide this cabuV" Tlic judge looked .surprised , but re warded the young man's nerve by re plying : "Well , Charley , J am going to decide It for the iicfomiiint , but you must not say anything uulil ido it. " On another occasion , just after Grcs- ham's appointment as postmaster gen eral , but before he had left the bench , ho was hearing a railroad case in chamber * . A reporter timidly opened the door and stepped into a circle of distinguished at torneys , such as Senator McDonald , the late ox-Governor Baker and Abram W. Hendricks. The judge erected the in truder kindly , beckoned him to advance , and stopped the case long enough to explain - plain its nature. The reporter was about withdrawing , when the judge said : "Don't be in a Iwrry. HavoyonaknifeV" The cutlery was produced , the judge opened a box of choice cigars , passed them around , and then again proceedings begun. Ho had a habit of doinir such things , yet noyor surrendered the dignity attached to ids court. When Maj. Calkins was a candidate for governor two years ago , the dcm- ociatiu press published a private re mark made concerning him by Gresham It was simply this : "There is nothing in him ! " Gresham did not deny it. and ho was severely criticised by republicans. Two months later , however , when Cal kins failed In the joint debate with Gov. Gray , when ho was defeated , and ever since the republican party in this state has benn reiterating Grcsham's senti ment. It proved In Calkins' case , as in those of government offenders , that he seldom made a mistake in sking up his man. As is well known , ho has the ut most contempt for Dudley , Dorsoy , and that gang and their method , and has never failed to so announce himself. Thus it is that those men took up Senator Harrision , and may always bo found with him against Grcbham , at least. There la no dancer , however , that the judge will be nominated for the presi- doucv. His boom is premature , and schemes are already on foot to lay aim jut.
