It is the unloaded revolver that always docs the mischief. ' Park addition invest Squire's is a sure ment. Pacilic avenue will bo built up with store buildings within a year. Mlko O'Connor was found lying across n sidewalk about 2 o'clock yesterday morning. The police did not consider that sort of n sidewalk crossing a irood ono , and so took it up. It cost Alike $7.00 to sleep the rest of the night at the station. Mr. Sachen , who has been cared for at the Cottage hospital , has been in a very critical condition and it scorned that he could not recover , but a change has now taken place , and the crisis is believed to have been safely passed. Ho was for merly a resident of Grand Island. The man Rogers , who was fined for not taking out a book-seller's ' license , is still in the city jail. Ho claims to bo in cor respondence with his attorneys in Des Moincs , and following their advice. Ho threatens to sue the city for heavy dam ages , nnd is satisfied to remain in the dungeon as ho is sanguine about making the city pay well for his imprisonment. Others sec little show for him beyond a chance for him to spend some money in the courts if he feels so inclined. The voters arc strangely negligent in getting registered. To-day is the hist chance for many of them. They should bo sure nnd got their names put on , for if they do not appear before the board in person they cannot vote. Council iilufl's should show Its full voting strength , and thus give additional basis to the boom , also , and put to rest the jealous state ments that Council Hind's has not as many voters ns Is claimed , livery man to the front. The question of erecting a new city hall is being discussed. That such a building should bo put up this season is conceded by all , The only tiling on which there seems to bo a difference of opinion is as to the exact location. The proposal to condemn property near tlio present building , and build through to Main street , seems to meet with much favor. The plan for securing enough ground for a market place in connection with the city hall is also mooting with favor. A move will doubtless' ' bo made at an early date to go ahead with these improvements. Pacific house is tlio nearest hotel to the majority of real estate olliccs in the city. $2.00 per day.

LOOKING FOR A LEVEE LINE , A Preliminary Survey Shows the Schema to Be Practicable , THE NEW FIRE ALARM. The Mnlvcrn Suicide's Actions While In This Clly-Oosslp About the New Hotel A Hoy's Narrow Escape niufra News , SnrveylriK For the Ijevcc. City KngincerTostcvln is running the preliminary line for the now levee , so as to get at the property to bo affected , and thus get nt the facts on which to base his report. The present plan is to run along the north line of section 27 , so as to in clude the Portcrlield , Folsom , Corcoran and Carr tracts , as they are marked on the map. The lovco is to commence nt n point wlicro the north line intersects with the present levee and run duo west until it strikes the high bench of ground near the river , and turning will go southerly and extend to the Union Pacific dump. There are portions of this line on which no work will be necessary. The low places aru to bo built up , ami along the line there is for much of the distance n natural protection equal to the levee. City Engineer Tostcvin is very sanguine that with a comparatively small expendi ture the whole of the bottoms can bo surely protected from any possibility of an overflow. There arc largo portions which stood above the high water in 1881 oven , when the water was higher than it probably will ever reach again. The work will be commenced at once and will bo done long before tlio June rise. There will be ample security aeainst any possible danger from ovcrllow. Til's move insures confidence in bottom lands oven among the most timid. The ex pense for what work is needed is nominal. It is estimated that it will not cost twenty-live cents a lot to do this work. " 'TIs True , " 1'ls I'lty , nml 1'lty 'Tis 'TIs True.

The BIK : yesterday morning contained the particulars of i suicide at Malvcrn. Tlio name of the man was thought to be Trion , and it was thought that his family lived at Peona , 111. On reading the ac count in tlio Bin : yesterday Mr. John Miller , the baker on Tenth avenue , in this city , was vividly reminded of tlio fact that this man was at his place in this city on the day before ho committed sui cide. The man was a stranger , and acted strangely , so strangely that it was noticeable , and in view of later develop ments Mr. Miller is now satisfied that the man was crazy. The man's head seemed to bo troubling him. and Mr. Miller had him bathe it in cold water. The man talked about his home , and said the house was burned , and his little boy was burned in it. He seemed to bo suspicious of his wife , and then ho would praise her as though ho had not the slightest doubt concerning her. He said ho had been robbed of a ticket by a railway con ductor , and that a man on the train once tried to kill him. Ho pulled out his pocket knife and showed how the man came for him with a knife. After some more talk of this rather wild character , tlio man started to take the train. He evidently went from hero to Malvcrn , where ho took his own life. During his stay at Mr. Miller's he wrote a letter to his wife and had Mr. Miller direct and mail it. The address was "Mrs. Jacob Irion , Patehwuy , 111. , McLean county.

" \Vhatabouttho new hotel ? " was the query put to County Clerk Shea yester day , lie being one of those who formed the syndicate for the purchase of the Pa cific hotel property. "It's all right. You can depend upon it , " was the reply. Some one expressing a doubt , Mr. Shea braced up bis urcdietion b\r "I'll ' just bnt an oven thousand dollars that work will commence on n Inrgo , now hotel hero by the 1st of June. I mean it. You find a man who wants to bet on it and I'll ' bo there with the money. " There seems to bo several matters to bo first settled before the new hotel project is assured. Inquiry of different ones in terested lends to the discovery that it is very desirable to get the corner lot , which belongs to W. F. Sapp , jr. Ho wants $ M,000 for it , there being twenty-live feet front. Some are in favor of buying this , although they deem it too high a price. Others do not want to give over $10,000 for it , and this amount in cash is said to have been of fered Mr. Sapp , but declined. Another matter to bo adjusted is the lease of Ferguson & Son , the present pro prietors of the Pacific honso. They are holding tlio fort , are running the hotel , and propose doing so until they notify the public themselves that they are to make a change. They seem annoyed at the reports started , lor naturally the traveling public gets the idea that the hotel is about to be torn down and a new one built , which does not help their trade just now , The patrons of this hotel jii'od not worry. There will bo abundant notice given before there is any change in the situation. A Narrow Kscnjie. The sewer near the corner of Hroadwny and Frank street became clogged with ice ami during the thaw of Thursday the water at that point Hooded a portion of the street , causing nt one point quite n pond. Yesterday that was frozen over , making quite a tempting skating rink. As Marshal Guanoltn was coming along near thorn he saw a little fellow skating , bnt tlio ice suddenly gave way and the boy went into the water , which was about up to Ms neck. A minute moro and ho would probably have been so chilled through as to have unk right down , but the marshal rushed in and grabbed him , pulled him out , and told him to warm liinibolt by running for home , The New Kiro Alarm. It scorns dillicult lo get any very de finite information as to" what is being done about the new lire and police alarm. Just what tlio trouble is does not appear. In response to queries the answer invar iably comes that everything will bo all right in a few days. The system will bo publicly tested. It is bound to work till right. With tills assurance there seems to uo nothing to do but for tlio public to wan. Those who wanted another syhtem in place of the Richmond delight in in timating that the system will not work and bay , " 1 told you so. " Those who supported the claims of the Richmond beciu to bo , uneasy ; arid wonder what the reason la thnt the system is not ready. There is an nir of mystery about the mat-tor which is unpleasant , but the assur ance Is given thnt nil is well , that faith and patience are needed. These hnvo been exercised for some weeks , nnd naturally they are getting worn. Substantial abstracts of titles nnd real estate loans. J. W. & K. L. Squire. No. 101 Pcnrl street , Council UlnfTs.

Last night the opera house was crowded ns on the opening of the fnlry opcrn , "Naiad IJuccn. " The audience was just ns wild with enthusiasm , nnd the applause was as deafening , as on tlio first night. It is wonderful how this opera thus draws night nftcr night , and with no apparent wearying on the part of the public. The participants begin to show some fatigue , but the entertainment ns a whole moves oil' moro smoothly than on tlio start , nnd H now at its best. This afternoon the matinee , and to-night the closing performance. If there is any one in the city who hns not seen this charming - ing vision of fairy' land , this last oppor tunity should not bo missed.

A case of sore need and destitution is reported as being on Tenth street and avenue B. An old couple lately came there nnd rented a little hou o belonging to Mr. Gilmorc. They claimed to be from Ncola. Soon after moving in the old gentleman disappeared from the scene , leaving the old lady who is aged about seventy , and a young girl who has fits , preventing her from work. The neigh bors have been contributing food lo keep the two alive , and have been trying to got tlio superintendent of the poor to render some assistance. Tlio destitute condition of the two is said to be pitiable , and demanding immediate attention. When you are in tlio city stop at the Pacific house.
