The trial of Gporgo Washington Make
peace , the attorney , has just been con
cluded at Denlson , in Judge Connor's
court. Makopoaco was charged with
having received some notes for collection ,
sued them , and collected the judgments ,
nnd failed to turn over the money.
Makepeace has been given a good deal of
notoriety , and much interest was felt in
this case. Dunlap parties were interested
In prosecuting the case , and they urged
County Attorney Lally to accept some
assistance , offering themselves to bear
the expense. The county attorney is said
to have declined any such help , and as
tlm defense was feebly conducted the state
was defeated , nnd Makepeace was ac
quitted. The conduct of tno case on the
part of the prosecution has been rather
severely criticized. It is said that the
state failed to prove Unit Makepeace over
received the money , or that any demand
had been made for an accounting. Other
essential features are said to have been
carelessly omitted in making the proof.

Comments on flic Ijcvco. *
The tnlk of completing the Icvccrso ns
to give absolute protection to the bottom
lots is timely , au ± t il Is quito probable
that it will result in actionbciiiK taken
speedily.
"Of course , " remarked one citizen in
discussing the matter In a group yester
day , ' 'no one expects nny trouble with
Hoods. Six years ago thcro wits trouble ,
bttt that was considered as remarkable ,
and is not liable to occur again for a
century. Still it would cost but little to
make sure of It. Simple prudence would
dictate that the luveo bo completed. Then
there would be no show tor water under
nny circumstances. It would bo worth
the price of thu lovco just to calm the
norvouF people who alwayssco some dire
calamity coming , whether there is one or
not. It would Do worth that just to stop
croakers.
"i know folks who stood on the other
side of the river and looked over
to tlio Hind' * , and insisted that the water
was up to the Pacllic house. Everybody
knows that is simple nonsense. There is
no need of fear on account of water. Tlio
day if past for Hint. The portion of Iho
levco already done , the amount of tilling ,
the making of the now sewer ditcli ,
aud other improvement are such that no
more trouble with water need bo feared.
Hut then if there is anybody who is
afraid let them go ahcad'and make the
lovco. "
If the levee is completed il ought to
be paid for by those who own property in
that part of the city , " remarked another.
"Tlio city at larco is not directly inter
ested and ought not to be taxed for it. Let
the district which gets tlio protection pay
for jt. They can afford to , for property
is rising &o fast in value thcro that it
would pay fora great many levees. "
"The trouble Is , " protested one of the
property owners affected , "that a large
portion of the property i left expose 1
between the proposed levco anil the
river. That is left out in tlio cold , or out
in the wet , I should say , and that doesn't
seem fair. Tlio Icvoo should bo Ijuilt
clear ut the river edge , so as to take It all
in. It ought to bo uuilt from where it
now stops clear to the river , and then
down tlie banks. " '
"That's nonsense , " suggested a scien
tific observer. "In the ( irst plaeo you
cannot make a lovco of tins kind at right
angles to a current. The current would
wash it away in a hurry. If you want to
build a levco so it will stand you must
run as nearly as possible the same way
as the current. Then the current does
not strike against it with full."force , but
angling. The levee should start from
whore the work now stops , and run at an
angle towards the river , and then it
should go southerly a liitlo ways back
from the present bank. You can't make
a levco right on tlio edge of where the
sand bar is now. It wouldn't stand. So
far as tlie property is concerned which is
between the levee and the river , it would
not be atlectcd in any way. It wouldn't
stand any more danger ot a Hood than il
does without tlio levee , and in cabo of a
Hood it would not bo covered with anymore
moro water one way than the other.
Talk about cost. Why there is a propo
sition made to complete the levee for
$ ; J,000. That is a trifle , when you con
sider the amount of property interested.
If it costs three times that it wouia pay
to put it in.
Tlie Pnrk Fund.
In the council meeting tlie other night
Alderman Shugart remarked concerning
the bill for curbing at ISayliss Park , that
this should be paid for out of the park
fund , and by the park commissioners. It
was also intimated , as it has been at
other times , that the park commissioners
should pay for paving the streets ad
jacent to the parks and that the money
raised by a special tax for jrfirk purposes
shonM remain in the hands , of the city
treasurer , and not in the hands of thu
treasurer chosen by the park commis
sioners. There seems to bo some little
friction between the city council or sonic
of the aldermen and the park commis
sioners. The fact is that for park com
missioners thrco of the best citizens of
Council BinII3 have been elected , men
who are linancmlly responsible , ami who
have the complete confidence of tlio pee
ple. Hut moro tlian this the new law in
regard to them is trained very strong. It
provides that they shall give § 5,000 bonds
each and to serve without pay. The idea
of men giving such bonds tor the saku of
doing work for nothing caused quite
a laugh at DCS Moines among the
legislators when it was introduced there ,
but His nevertheless a good law for the
people. The law provides that these
commissioners shall have exclusive con
trol of tlio parks , and that they can use
the funds for tlio purposes of improving
the parks. They draw the money on
orders signed by two out of three of the
commissioners , and keep a record of all
of their expenditures. It seems from the
reading ot the law that the city council
cannot control the money in any form ,
and has no moro to do with its expendi
tures than any other citizen. The fund
is not sullicicntly largo to bo used for
paving , curbing and otlierbtrcet improve
ments , "but if it was it remains with the
park commissioners , and not the council ,
to say how the money shall bo expended.
Tlui city council cannot vote n dollar out
of the park fund , and hence there seems
to bo no need of any special discussion In
tlio council chamber as to how it is to bo
expended.
Kxtonslro arrangements are being
made for the observance of Hums' birth
day on the evening ot the 25th. The
Caledonian club , organized by.tho lead-
in : ' citizens of the place , have the matter
in hand , and are arranging for n banquet
witli appropriate exercises , and a dance
to follow. The feast is to i bo replete with
good things for both mind and body , and
a happy time is assured all who attend.
Those who are to bccuro tickets should
do so by Saturday of this vvook , They
can bo obtained ut J , T. Oliver's , or at
Oliver & ( irahain ,
Arranscinonts are buing nuulo for en
larging the market place nt the city build
ing , the gtouiid now being too limited ,
It is1 high time that the city built some
bert of a vault for the storage of books ,
papers and records. The safes now in
the city buildings have not room enough
for the books and records which are
usea d&ily , anil thcroare many other val
uable papers and books which are- stored
around in various rooms and ollices. Incase
-case of H lire there would bu a loss which
money could not cover. A u protection
to the interests of property owners , as
well as the city at largu , there should be
a liro-proof vault built at oncu.

The trial of the casu of Simon Kiso-
man against the Hawkoyo' Insurance
company , of Des Moines , began in the
district co.urt yesterday , Judge Tliornell
presided , tinil Judge Phillips , of DC *
Mo'.nes , appeared for the company , while
John N. Baldwin , of this city , was the
attorney for the plaintiff. The facts on
which the plaintiff seeks to establish his
case are that In August , 1835 , L ) . McGin-
niss went into the fruit , confectionery
find cigar business in a one-story brick
building on Uroadway. On May 15,18SO ,
the agent of the company , Mr. Hicks , in
sured the stock for $1,000 and the fixtures
for $200. On the 34th of the same month ,
nine days after iho policy was issued , the
place caught fire , nnd the stock nnd fix
tures were totally destroyed. Mr. Me-
Uinniss tilled up the blanks furnished by
thu agent of the company , and presented
what lie deemed to bo n sufllcient proof
of loss. He claimed that the stock
amounted to ? 1,400. and the fixtures
to fully $ ' . ' 00 , nnd therefore ho
was entitled to Iho paymcut of the pol
icy In full. The company insisted on
his producing his books and papers , seas
as to determine iir detail what his loss
was , but he could not do this as ho did
not keen anything butn blotter , and this
with his bills , receipts , etc. . were de
stroyed at the time of the lire. As ho
was indebted to Mr. Eisoman nnd others ,
he assigned his claim against the com
pany to this gentleman. The company
claims that there was not stilllcient proof
of the loss being as much as was
claimed , and intimated in n very un
pleasant way that Mr. McGinnisiS was in
some way at fault for the lira oceuriing.
There are somelegaljqucstions raised , as
well as questions of fact , and the c.iso is
to be hotlj contested on both sides.

STUDYINoTTHE EYE. -
"Where Problems to Ijnst n .Lifetime
May He Spun.
Do you over niakia study of eyes ?
asks a writer in Mind and Nature for
January. Not girls'eyes only nil eyes.
Within that Tittle radius"of n quarter
of an inch are problems to last u lite-
time.
Emerson iias well spoken of the eye
that threatens like a leveled rlllo how
often it is scon ! You need not visit
c : > mps to find it ; the counting-room and
the ollico contain it quite as oltcn ,
and sometimes it is scan even under
crimps.
But the threatening eye is not to bo
confounded with the commanding eye
or tlie wild beast eye. The last men
tioned , iho most snvngo and inhuman of
all , is scon chielly under the brows
Hushed or pale from debauchery , and ,
according to circumstances , it lias a rest
less or lixed glare.
Then there is the cruel and treacherous
eye. This is peculiar and rather less
common. It is a cold gray different
from the "intelligent gray" with n dark
edge to the eyelid. There is none more
thoroughly repollant.
Sonic'times n yellowish , cat-liko eye
looks at yon , saying : "I'll deceive you nt
every opportunity. " Other kinds are the
secretive dye , set so tar back that you
cannot see its expression , the foxy , the
critical , the loving , the sensual , etc ; .
The list is long , but of all the most com
mon is the lion-committal oyo. So fre
quent is it that the eye is greatly over
rated as a general index of character ; wo
really form our judgment from the rest
. .oLtho features.
When you have well mastered the dif
ferent kinds of eyes , then try to aeconnt
for their dillcrenees on anatomical prin
ciples. The components ot an eye's ex
pression are certainly noU numerous.
There are the color , di > grco of openness ,
movement steady or vacillating , etc. Can
these material elements alone account for
the wonderful transparency you some
times nicety There are eyes which scnhi
actually open windows in which the in
visible spirit sits and becomes visible to
the earthly sense of sight.

It is related that Maknrt , the great

than Yon Mohke , the man who is si

who had been told that the bust way to

would bo to play chess with him at the
cafu to which ho resorted nightly ,
watched his opportunity , nnd when Mak-
nrt's opponent rose , sllpncd into his
chair. At last his dream was reali/.cd ;
ho was to spend an evening in Makart's
society , The painter signed to him to
play , and thu game went on with no
other sound than the moving of the
pieces , At last the American made the
winning move , and exclaimed , "Mate ! "
Up rosu Mnkart in disgust and stalked
