He dropped into a dance ou lower Main street and checked his overcoat. On coining out and claiming it , the coat could not be found. Yesterday it was re turned to him , a mistake having been made by which it was given out to an other nian. J. J. Stewart has taken eleven deposi tions to the oiled that James Lee Quinn , who is soon to be tried for murder in In diana , \vas known as a peaceable and quiet eiti/en while residing in this city. IJuiuu's defense is said to bo that the killing was done in sell-defense , and ho purposes to establish his reputation as being anything but quarrelsome. The two men complained of for cutting poles on L. M. Aylesworth's land have boon discharged , ft appears that they had made arrangements for cutting poles on the adjoining land , belonging toV. . S. Miiyno , and by mistake got over the lino. They settled the financial part of the transaction satisfactorily with Mr. Aylcsworth and the prosecution was dropped. Woodburn , who shot Hums in a row on llroadway some wenks ago , was yester day released from jail and the case dropped , ho paying the costs. W'oodburn has had the reputation of having been a Ticaccablo follow , and it is thought that lie was not so much to blame in the affair as was atirst / supposed. Ho is fluid to have bccd seriously assaulted , and while being pounded drew his revolver and shot in self defense , but accidentally the wrong man was hit. Mrs. Eliza A. Field , who wns charged with assaulting a girl , Delia Urowor , was yesterday discharged by Justice Itarnott. The girl , who is about fourteen , was placed in Mrs , Field's charure to be cared for , gent to school , and instructed in housework. Mrs. Field having occasion to punish her for some offense , resorted to the rod , which led to tlic arrest for as- sank. The justice concluded that the irl got what she deserved , and that Mrs. § iold was simply acting the motherly part towards her. Olio man brought before the court yes terday seems to have had a queer experi ence. Ho had been rooming in a certain house for thrco months or more , and on coming home Saturday night he found that tlie family had moved out. The house was empty and locked up , and not knowing what else to do he broke in the door and slept on the lloor. The charge against him was dropped on his promis ing to repair whatever damage ho had donn in tuns forcing an entrance into his accustomed lodging place. The Council Bluffs Herald last night pro- Routed its readers with the long deferred New Year's boom edition. It is quite a creditable issue and presents the advant ages of Council lilulld in rather an at tractive form. Such enterprises help the growth of a city by giving it noedeil ad vertising and should bo heartily sup ported. From tbo amount of advertising patronage appearing in the edition it fioenis that the Herald has made a profit able venture for itself while serving the publlo as well. Mrs. Medley and her boy appeared be fore Judge Aylesworth yesterday morn ing , and sought to explain away the charge lodged against the boy , that lie brutally hit another boy , named Payne , with a sled. The judge concluded , after inquiring into the matter , that the boy , had not been acting altogether as a boy Bhould , and when the mother insisted too strongly on the virtue of her son , ho reminded her that his oxutirienco had nhown him that all the perfect angels of the masculine sex died in infancy. He gave the mother seine wholesome advice and warned her not to encourage the hey in his quarrels with other boys , 'iho case was continued uo as to give the boy a chance to show whether ho was going to behave , and if so will doubtless bo dropped , For Sale A No. 1 road mare , line blooded , at constable's sale on January 111 , at 4 o'clock , near the postolllco , Omaha , Those dosirini : to purchase a roadster should attend this sale.

BLUNDERS IN BOND MAKING , The City Loses Several Hundred Dollars By Poor Figuring. JOTTINGS ABOUT REAL ESTATE. A Stolen IjlvcryToani ClnlinlitRThelr I'rlzcH iV Cjllmpsc nt One of the Hnlvallon itccrults Doings or the Council , Queer FIctirlriK on Interest. It seems that men who display great business ability and sagacity in the transaction of private business , often make sad mistakes in doing business for the public. An Illustration of this has como to light in regard to the issuance of improvement bonds. A bond of $1,000. as an instance , Is Issued , one-fourth of Ine amount to bo paid in two years , one- fourth in four years , one-fourth ia six years , anil tha balance in eight years , the bonds drawing 0 per cent interest , paya ble seini-anuually. Under this arrange ment there Is attaciied to the bond thus Issued sixtopn coupons , each calling for 830 interest. The bond holder can cut oir his coupon every six months and pre sent it for payment. Ho thus gets ? GO the lirsl year , iJOO the second year and so on. Hut atVr the second year one-fourth of the bond is to be paid , and then the city , haying paid sfWO of the principal. owns but ! Jr750. The bond holder can every six months present his iJDO coupon just the same and thus get § ( ! ( ) a year interest on $ ? > 0. Alter the fourth year's interest the bond holder-continues to draw if00 a year in terest on $500 , nearly 10 per cent. . After six years ho gets ifiO ( , just the same , as in terest , on $ ' V)0 ) , or 12 per cent interest on the amount still duo. Strange as it may seem such bonds have been issued. For- tunatelv only a few bonds have gone out , and undnr the present administration the city auditor , discovering that such a way of issuing bonds was not fair to the city , refused to sign any more such. The at tention of the council has been called to the fact that the city has thus been the loser by $100 or ifoOO , and on the sugges tion ot the auditor.smallcr bonds , of $100 denomination , arc to be issued so that the amounts in settling with contractors can bo adjusted so as to make them como equitably and evenly , with little trouble.

KIsemau'H Drawing. About thirty of the prizes awarded at the Kiscman drawing Saturday night have been called for. It is the impression that the three highest pri/.es have been drawn by parties at a distance. Yesterday Mrs. Fred Johnson , residing on South Eighth street and Sixteenth avenue , presented her ticket , which drew the fourth pri/.e twenty yards gros grain black silk and received the same , her husband presenting the male clerks of the People's store with a box of cigars. The tifth nri/.o was won by a needy Danish ladv named Christina Becker. of No. 1422 South Eighth street , who had her measure taken for a $00 seal plush cloak. The tenth prize- Angora beaver shawl was won by Mrs. Sarah Nugent , u willow lady on North Eighth street. The "Gold" shirts , the eighteenth prize , was won by Herman Kracht , of Throll & ICrachl. A lady won a pair of boy's boots , but having no boy Mr. Simon Eiseman ex changed them for a pair of ladies' shoes. A widow lady won a book and was anxious to receive it , but when she saw it was entitled "Quit Your Meanness , " by Sam Jones , it took her breath away. Mrs. Fremont Benjamin , of Avoea , re ceived an elegant silk mulller. Several prizes were won by persons who only held one ticket. Mrs. Congressman Lyman forwarded her ticket from Olney , 111. , and her prize , a lace handkerchief , was sent by last evening's mail. Place Chultorbuck had three tickets and itrew two prizes. A man who had 300 tickets got left , as did one who held 270 tickets , and many who had only a few. Ccntcrville soft-lump coal , $ ! 1.75 per ton , delivered , Win.

The WayH That Arc Dark. Field & Cole , the liverymen , are anx iously watching and waiting for tiding * ' of a team and buggy , hired from them Saturday by a stranger , who said ho wanted to drive a short distance out into the country. As the rig has not turned up as expected , they were yesterday of the opinion tiiat the outfit had been stolen , and were sending out tracers in all directions. \V. H. ( Jage , residing on Pierce street , had a pair of bobs , which suddenly ami mysteriously disappeared Friday night. He succeeded in tracking them to South Omahn , where ho found thorn in posses sion of Timothy and Peter Barrett. Just what they will odor in explanation is not known as yet. The colored man , I'axtion , who is charged with stealing clothing from the liechtelo hotel , where ho had been em ployed as a porter , had his preliminary hearing before JuUgo Aylcsworth yester day. Colonel Dal Icy appoaredon the part of the state , and in less than fifteen min utes the follow was held to the grand jury , bail being fixed at $500. Most of the clothing taken belonged to Mr. Hoeh- tele and family , and was ma closet where the porter had easy access to it , It was all recovered.

A hack drove up in front of.tho store * and stopped and a man eanio staggering in ; ho was rather a tough looking citizen , and I thought probably ho mistook the place for u saloon , Unbraced up and said ho wanted a stand-up collar and a white necktie , as ho was going to got married. 1 sold them to him , but did not allow him to handle the stock in making Ids selections , as his hnuil.s were none too clean. Not over a week ago a fellow came in and had about all lie could com fortably carry. Ho had the hies bad , and asked mo if 1 remembered him , I told him his face was familiar , but I could not place him. He said that made no difl'er- euce , hos anted a white necktie and a stand-up collar and that ho had the stuff to put up for them. After ho had made his purchase lie again asked mo if 1 did jiot remember him. and recalling the circumstance of buying a white uccktjo and stand-up collar. I told him I did , very well. He said , ' 1 got married that day and to-day I got divorced. ' That same man now follows the Salvation Army , and seems bent on reform.1 Hand concert at rink to-night. The City Council , The city council last evening met in adjourned session , all members present. After reading the minutes the council proceeded to elect trustees for the public library , the terms of Judge J 11. Koeil , I ) . C. Hloomcr , and J , P. Casady having expired , and W. K. Vaughan having re moved from the city. On ballot , Judge Kecd and 0. C. Bloomer were rc-clecfcd. W. H. Ware was chosen as successor to J. P. Casady , who had expressed a desire not to servo longer. These wore elected for the long term. The resignation of W. H. Vaughan was read and accepted. The document was characteristic , but it contained the sensible siurgc&lion that Judge E , E. Aylesworth bo elected his successor. The council evidently in accordance with the prearranged caucus , cast a unan imous tiallot in favor of Mayor William Gronoweg. George F. Wright called attention to the Tenth avenue project. Ho stated that the Union Pacific ollicials had been asked to state wherein the ordinance pending was not to their liking. The Union Pacific had sent over a draft of an ordi nance in regard to tiio matter , which em bodied what they would atrreo to. Mr. Wright suggested that it bo referred to the committee of the whole and the city attorney. John Limit , in behalf of citizens , wanted it read buforo it was referred. W. A. Mynster presented some parlia mentary questions. Action on the pending Tenth avenue ordinance was postponed until the next , meeting. The Union Pacific ordinance on the matter was then read and referred. This ordinance provided for giving the right ot way to the Union Pacilic along the alley in block 12. Fleming & Davis VM w t i i'Jj 411 ui uwiv i. v iwiiiiii vx > u it ta addition at intersection of said alley with the Union Pacific transfer grounds ; from that point cast alon ; tlio alloy to the sewer ditch , and across Seventeenth , Sixteenth , Fifteenth and Fourteenth streets , between blocks 12 , 11 , 10 , UandC. at which point it terminates , and then commences on Tenth avenue at Four teenth street , and aloiifj the avenue cast to Sixth street ; the Union Pacilic to pro cure of property owners the right of way over such lots as it may deem necessary to cross. The Union Pacific shall lay its tracks betoro December 80 next , and construct a freight depot between Sixth and Ninth streets on Tenth avenue ; at this depot shajl be received and delivered all local freight for Council Bluffs when so or dered by consignors and consignees. The company is to conform to tlio grade of the streets , provide waterways , etc. The right of way shall revert to the city if abandoned for sixty days. The city is not to bo liable for any damages caused to property owners or corpora tions. The company is to bo released from its obligations to handle freight at the Hroadway depot or to switch freight cars there , but not to bo released from its obligations to maintain passenger accommodations there as before. The company must file it.s acceptance of this ordinance within thirty days after its passage. . The ordinance as proposed also pro vides that if the company desires to ex tend its tracks easterly or southcrly.it can ' do so , crossing Sixth , Fifth and 'Fourth streets , and crossing Eleventh , Twelfth. Thirteenth , Fourteenth , Fifteenth and Sixtecntli avenues , provided that the company secures the right of way across the private lots , paying the property owners the damages thereon , in ac cordance with law. The ordinance was treated as a com munication and referred to the commit tee of _ the whole , to be considered in con nection with the ordinance now pending. Personal Paragraphs.
