Gentlemen at 0 o'clock , for tea. The case of Call vs. the Council Binds Wire Nail works occupied the attention of the district court yesterday , so that the saloon injunction cases could not be considered. They will probably come up this morning for further argument. Odcll Bros. & Co. have leased part of the Schickatan/ residence for their loan and insurance business. The city council is to meet this oven- im ? to consider some important matters. The many enterprises contemplated , the sudden activity in real estatethe demand for public improvements , makes it neces sary that the city government should act with promptness and wisdom. The old- time delays in committee rooms will not bo looked on with much patience now , as every one is anxious for the council to decide promptly on such matters as are brought before it. The coming thoroughfare between Omaha and Council Hltill's runs through Omaha Addition. Odell Bros. & Co. DC. R. Allen Is busy at work on new maps of Council Bluffs and Omaha , and the demand will soon be met. During the past week there have been so many now firms starting up hero , and so great a demand for city maps that those fortu nate enough to own quo could command almost any price for it. The maps which sold orfgmally for fifteen dollars were readily picked UP at twenty-live. The map publishers had already started on the preparation of a new map before the boom struck the city , and the work is now being pushed as rapidly ns possible , consistent with aeur.ito , reliable and ar tistic work. The supply will soon bo reached , and the old time prices will prevail. Odell Bros. & Co. have put in an iron bank railing to keep the crowd from in terfering with business behind the desks. The public has not forgotten the notori ety given the Mercer girl , who was res cued from a house in Omaha , the keeper of which was sharply prosecuted and skipped. The keeper's defense was that the girl , though young in yearswasoldor in the ways of the world than her sympa thizers thought. It is claimed that of late she hits been too frisky on the streets. One of the police officers reported that ho tried to quiut her down at a Main street dance the other night , and was sharply taunted by her , she using all sorts of epi thets. Monday night she was arrested and taken to the police station for like conduct , she beginning to abuse the olli- cers who cautioned her to change her be havior on the streets. Another young cirl , who goes by the name of Bennett , but who says her name is Lizzie Wilbcr , was arrested also , the two being boon companions , and seen much together parading the streets. A young man stopped to the front and deposited $ > ( ) as an option until this morning , when the cases of the two maidens are to bo disposed - posed of by Judge Aylesworth.

Tlio Old Fashioned School Lust Nlc t flurRlnrfl Are Prowling Around Vfirloui Kntcrm-iscs Planned , A Bottom Tor tlio Boom. Tncrc nre a few impatient ones who tire continually talking about when the build ing boom is to come. They are laughing nil over with delight nt the activity in real estate , nnd the way prices nro ad- vnncing , but they wonder whether there Is to be much building this spring. Like a boy who has not got quite through the first part of his dinner , and who is nfraid ho will not get any pic , they nro impa tiently wondering and f rotting , nnd near ly choking themselves in order lo jol to the best things kept for the end of the least. The weather has not yet been favorable for the building enterprises to assume tangible shape. The boom struck so suddenly and so hard that folks got so rattled they did not know what they wore 'oing to do. Sufficient to the day was he business thereof , and on many days the business was suilicicnt for a part of .o-morrow ns well. , That there will be many material im- iroveinents in Council Blull's this season s apparent. Some of the shrewd ones saw the changes which were coining and Jiev started out to quietly pick uiilols md property , getting thuni at lo\y lig- nres , nnd expecting to silently got in on ; ho best parts of the ground lloor before the pujilie generally realized _ what was coming. 'iheso parties of still hunters haneed to come suddenly across each other in this neck of the woods , and they ; nvo an exclamation of surprise. The .niblic heard of it , and there was an end ) f hocrecy. The boom opened with all , he suddenness of a cyclone. It came before - fore those who wore planning for it wore ready. It is here , nnd it is hero to stay. The new government building , u mar vel of beauty , will bo completed this year. The now court house , one of tlio largest ind finest in the land , will be finished. There is every reason to believe that n gpacious , elegant union depot will be Inult on Tenth avenue. The Union Pacilic Is preparing for more buildings than they care to disclose at prnsonl. The number > t trades being Inul , the starting of the argo round house , the equipping and { coping of passenger coaches in the yards here , those and other improve ments , together with ample repair shops , are already announced , and tlie work acquit. The Broadway wagon bridge is insured , the charter is obtained , the engineer is cxpoctcd this week to com plete plans and the actual work will commcncQ us soon as possible. The new Catholic church edifice will jo pushed to completion this season. What iias been known ns the old Cath olic church property is to bo occupied Ms season by a Jarco block. 1) . F. Richer is to build an ollico building on the property recently purchased by him running from Main to Pearl street. II , F. llattculiauor is to enlarge his carriage factory. Tne canning works will double their capacity. In fact , thus early , nro plenty of indications on every hand that .here will be a boom of brick nnd mortar. A quiet move is started , with much assurance of success , for the erection of an elegant building for the Y. M. O. A. The preliminary planning lias begun in earnest , and those who have it m hand uro very enthusiastic. The city is planning on the building of ( x line city hall. The councfi has already taken action for the condemning of ground in connection with that already owned by the city on Bryant creek. It is proposed to waste no moro money in patching up and enlarging the present budding , but to go to work with n will and put up n building somewhat com mensurate with the prosperity nnd pros pects of this growing city. The new city hail will probably bo started this spring. There is also under consideration the building of a city market hall in con nection therewith. There will bo more street improvements done this season than in any previous year. The paving of Broadway to the river has already been ordered. The completion of the levee is about dccidod upon. Numerous other lesser improve ments are being planned. Such nre but stray bits of informntwn in response to the inquiry as to what is to keep up the boom. With the many private enter prises and buildings sure to come , the city will bo alive and rustling this year ns never before. It is almost impossible to find any desirable residence which cnn bo rented. One lady , a stranger , n newcomer comer to the city , was complaining bit terly yesterday because flho could not lind in the papers n single house for rent. She was still more surprised to learn that there had been such n scarcity of houses for nyear past. Capital put into houses to rent will reap a good return , and this spring will bee many such houses built. Jacob Rogers some time ago put in n bid to Uncle Sam offering his property next to the government building for $0,000. Yesterday he was ollercd $8,000 by two different parties , and he is in a quandary what to do about it. Ho does not feel so much like selling to the gov ernment as ho did. There wore report ? ycstcrdiy that the Kiel hotel property had been sold for 1110,000. The report is n little prema ture , ns the dcnl is not quite closed up , but the negotiations are pending and will probably be closed. The sale is being made on the basis of100 n foot for the seventy-eight feet on Brondwny on Main street nnd the 300 feet on Bancroft street. This includes nil improvements. Cole & Cole yesterday bought the brick building lately occupied by Cooper &Mc- Gee , Cole Bros. ' predecessors in the hard ware business. Cole & Cole paid $15,000 for the property , purchasing it from A. A. Clark. K , C. Cole yesterday sold the vacant Jots on Oakland avenue formerly owned by S. D. Street. W. S. MeMicken was the purchaser , the price being $0,000. A Bvnuinntu yesterday purchased " twenty "acres in Hico'a subdivision , pay ing f'0,000 , There are a number inter ested in the deal , among them Judge Thornoll , J. N. Baldwin , W. A. Miuirer , F.

At thp Pacific house you will save from 60 cents to $1 per day. Try it and bo convinced. Tlio Levy lo do Initialled. The city engineer has been instructed to buryoy n line for the proposed levy to bo built to protect the bottom property. It is proposed to have tliu levy built at once , and the expense taxed up to thn district. The land has advanced so rap idly in value , and it is in demand for various improvement and actual oeeu * jmtlon , that there will hardly bo any protest on the part of those owning prop erty in that district The tax will be a very liuhtono , for the cos.t of completing the levy , uart of which is already built , will not exceed $5,100. Tiui idea seems to be to build the levy a distance buck from the banks of the river , and to con- formtholiuo in ( he general direction ol the banks , so as not to cross the current , A SPLENDID DARGAIN !

The only trouble with water baa been ! rom what is known as back water , o which there is little or no current , it being simply water standing on the level , and the dirt levee s fully able to hold this from spreading , July once in the history of this city has ' : here ever boon any such overflow its It is now proposed to prepare fof. That was an exceptional year , and a number of circumstances combined in a manner which it is predicted will not happen again. Still , whonsuro protection ngainst even the possibility of any trouble can bo so easily secured it seems the part of wis dom to make the outlay. There has been some objection raised on the part of some who desire to have the levee run so as to include their properly clear to the river's jdge , but it is claimed that this would be impracticable and that the greatest good to the greatest number should be the guide. The property outside the leyoo will not bo any more overllowthan if the levee was built , and those inside will be surely protected. The building of the eveo will be moro because of the undue lorvousucss of some in regard to bottom properly than from any danger really apprehended. Hurc Things.

The Olilon Times. There was a crowded house last night lo witness tli'e doings of the "Old Fash ioned Destrik Skewl. " The participants were all residents of the city , most of them old citizens , and all of them well known. Much of the amusement of the ntcrtainmcnt consisted of seeing stern business men , judges , doctors and ma trons of ordinarily quiet mien , taking the part of school boys and school girls again , and renewing their youth with en thusiasm The entertainment was in many respects more humorous than when given licre before. There were many fresh jokes and throughout the programme was a liberal sprinkling of hits on the popular subject the boom. Prof. Mo- Dermid as the teacher carried his part excellently. The infant class was in- tonselv funny. A number of charts had been drawn by , Mrs. McNaughton with rare skill , and as they wore read by the children of the larger growth the audi ence was convulsed with merriment. The blackboard sketches by C. E. Friedman were drawn with lightning rapidity , and were very funny. Ho was an entertain ment all by himself. As an artist ho is very skillful , and his designs were all happy conceits and sharp hits. Prof. McNaughton as the head committee man delivered Ijjs scathing rebuke to the innovations introduced by the teacher in a manner which called forth a round of applause. The , various classes , recita tions and declamations proved a feast of good things. In connection with the school pro gramme there were several features of special interest "and merit. Mr. Westcott sang as a solo a very pleasing opening number. Mrs. Lyons gave a charming recitation. Mrs. Wadsworth sang a solo which called forth enthusiastic applause. She certainly has wonderful voice , cul tured and skillfully handled. Miss Hatcher gave a very humorous character recitation "Tho Bad Boy. " The musical part of the programme was also given the addition of a duct on the violin and Unto by Messrs. Badolct and Tiillc.vd. two young artists whoso presence is always warmly welcomed. Ice Rink Hand Concert. A grand time at the ice rink to-night. Good music and .splendid ice. Open Cherry Street. A. C. Graham , whether in or out of public office , lias an eagle eye out for the city's interests. As one of the park com missioners he is closely looking after the valuable tracts owned by the city , and which , in time , will bo very valuable for park purposes ! ' The city has a largo amount of property at Big hike , the only road to which is by Cherry street , along side the driving park. A year ago he called the attention of the council to the fact that the d riving park fence had been crowded Into the middle of this btreet , and urged that stops bo taken to have the street opened full width. He has kept calling the attention of the conned to the possible danger ahead if the city allowed half of the street to be thus u ed and did not assert its rights. At the last council meeting he again brought it up and the council passed a resolution ordering the serving of the necessary notices. Ground is getting so valuable that it will not dote to run any risk of losing half a street. Those owning the driving park promise to move the fonoo and clear the street just as soon as the weather permits. Come out to the rink to-night , and en joy the music and splendid ice.

In hunt ing for these fellows the olllcers noticed borne men coming , as they biipposcd , out of Belle Clover's house , but it seems from later revolutions that they were a gang who had been working J.

Lo" Angeles Express : On the night of the 23d of December last Walter S.Mooro received a visit from an old Mexican vaquero named Juan Sopulveda , a resi dent of Ventura county , anJ to Moore ho imparted information as to the where abouts of a cache where , ho assorted , Joaquin Muriclta , the most noted and bloodthirsty outlaw of California , had hid the money and tieasuros of his many raids and robberies. When the outlaw was killed by his pursuers , it was sup posed thai the secret of the location of his "bank" died with him , but the old Mexican claims to possess that secret , and on the strength of his story Moore has lilted out a'u expedi'lon ' to go in bearch of the ( load bandit's burled wealth. Sepulveda's story is to the effect that years ago , when officers of the law were In pursuit of Muriclla and his gang , one of the latter came to hi * house one night and craved hospitality , which was freely given. A pursuing party , however , racked the robber to bepulvoda's place , uul ho was obliged to llee in hot haste for his life , leaving behind him his Mid dle and other effects. The saddle was jlven to the host. Sopulveda used the saddle for years , and recently it became out of lopair , and in overhauling it found f'JOO in gold coin and also a rudely drawn map or chart ol a mountainous country on a piece ot time- yellowed parchment , This chart was shown to Gustavo Lareau.x , who in questioning Scpnlveda , armed at the oonelusion with the old vaquero , that it is the key to Murietta's trea.sure , which is supposed by many to be hidden in the Ventura mountains. Moore's coin is be ing used to lit out the expedition to make the search on the strength of the story and the chart.
