Mrs. Mitchell , the lady in charge of the
trimming department of H. Friedman's
millinery establishment , leaves to-day
for the east after spring and summer
styles. Upon her return Mr. Friedman
will have his annual spring opening.
Two unruly roving bovincs have for
a season or two past annoyed the resi
dents In the vicinity of the Congrega
tional church. This season opens with
them on the grounds as usual , destroying
foliagu and parking. They .should be
pounded this year , just for a change.
K. Peterson and George Hopcr were
fined the other day for being drunk , but
were allowed to go out uud get the
money. They fallo'l to return as they
promised , and after hanging about
lf > Omaha for a few days sneaked back to
| i. this side , expecting that the matter had
boon forgotten or forgiven. They were
surprised on being picked up and placed
in the cooler.
Ofliccr Hose was yesterday busy driv
ing around in a hacK picking up those
too drunk to walk. Ho found one fel
low lying at the transfer waiting for the
new bridge to be done so ho could walk
over to Omaha. Tlio fellow was fleop-
ing so soundly that it was thought to bo
cruel to wake him up enough to have
him tell his name. He will disclose it to
the judge this morning.
The high price of gas in Council Binds
is ono of the evils which should be reme
died some way. It does not appear clear
why the price of gas hero should be so
much greater than in other cities , unless
it is that the citizens will pay it , and the
company naturally will take it. If the
company would reduce its price to some
where near what other cities got gas for.
it would bo an act of partial atonement
for the prices charged in the past.
The discussion is opening up in regard
to the legality of the recent school elec
tion. It WHS rather n peculiar election in
regard to Iho registry at least , or rather
the lack of registry. Under the new law
n registry is necessary for all elections ,
but the superintendent of public instruc
tion gave it as his opinion that the law
did not have any reference to school elec
tions. It was under his advice that the
election was held hero us in the old way ,
only more so , there being several differ
ent registry books used as reference sim
ply. It seems that if any ono cared
enough about the result to make a fightlh
the courts the chances are good for hav
ing the election prononncou as of no ac
count.
There was some uneasiness yesterday
about the now aldermen , or at least two
of them , Luoins Wells , and George Met-
calf. Mr. Wells is in Moline , and Mr.
Mctcalf in Col fax. It was time for them
to Qualify , and unless they should appear
to-day It was feared that they would bo
disqualified from serving. ID that event
n now election would have to bo held.
Telegrams wore sent to them , and they
will probably appear and swear in. The
only chance of avoiding a new election
is in the fact that the clerk notified them
by mail of their election , and if this was
not a legal notice , bo can notify them
ugain , and thus give them an extension
of time. They will have to swear in be
fore Monday as it now appears. The new
council is to meet Monday niglU.
Now goods will arrive to-day at Hark

The City' Wallet.
The city olllcials are putting the finish
ing touches upon their annual reports
The showing on the financial side is an
excellent one. It indicates that there arc
$15,000 less city warrants outstanding
than a year ago. The city council has
kept its expenses $5,000 under the limit ,
instead of overrunning as so many pre
vious councils have. 'Iho fire department
has cost less than $9,000 , whereas in pre
vious years it has run two or thro ethou-
Band dollars more than the amount.
Streets and alloys have cost about $7,000 ,
about ono half of what was expended the
previous year. The economy of the
council has had an excellent effect upon
the city warrants , which have now
reached ninety cents on the dollar , and
rapidly going up towards par. The city
is to be congratulated on the iinancia *
showing for tlio year.

The City Parliament.
A special meeting of the city council
was held yesterday afternoon , at which
all were present.
A number of bills were allowed. Judge
Aylcsworth's written acceptance of the
proposition to certify and compile the
city ordinances was received. |
Property owners on Avenue F. peti
tioned for establishing grade on that
street. Kcferrrd.
A settlement was made with C. R.
Mitchell , and .fJOO of bonds granted him.
An ordinance was adopted making it
the duty of dt.v ollicials to make a full
report in case of accidents on the streets ,
in which the city was liable to be a party
in any possible suit. Heretofore suits
have been startedand , by the time ot trial
the city could not find witnesses or
evidence. The purpose of this ordinance
is to .secure in such eases the needed
record of details and witnesses.
The money for the extension of Fifth
avenue was placed in the hands of the
sheriff. It is tlioiighl that its ensures the
opening of this thoroughfare , which is
an important change.
The council then adjourned.

THE INJUNCTIONS OltDElttiD.
Two Dozen liars Ordered Closed Hut
Superseding Homts Filed.
Judge Thornoll nas ordered the issu
ance of injunction wits against twenty-
four of tlio Council 111 nil's saloons , includ
ing the bars of the leading hotels. This
action is by no means a surprise as it was
conceded that Judge Thornoll was in
clined that way. Yesterday Attorney
Jacob Sims , who represents the prohibi
tion alliance , applied to Clerk Shea , pre
senting tlio order to have the writs Issued.
Mr. Shea declined to issue the writs , as
ho said that suporsedcas bonds hud been
tiled , the dcfednauts purposing to appeal
to the supreme court. Ho gave Mr. Sims
a written statement to that effect. It
seems that tlio saloon men anticipated
that the judge would grant the injunc
tions and had prepared bonds , M > as to
take an appeal. Iho policy evidently is
to keep the places open untfl tlio matter
could be decided upon by the supreme
court , which will take considerable time.
During the delay the saloons can rim as
usual.
Whether this delay can be had remains
to bo seen. There seems to be a question
whether the clerk of the courts can de
cline to issue the writs after the judge
has ordered them issued. If not , the
clerk may find that he has overstepped
tlio bounds in standing as a barrier be
tween the court and the saloons.
There is also a question as to whether
the filing of supcrsodas bonds will enable
the saloons to run while the appeal is
being taken. It is not unlikely that an
attempt will bo made to have the keepers
fined for contempt of court. If it shall be
decided that they arc liable to punish
ment for contempt it will make the busi
ness altogether too risky. The saloon
men seem confident that they can go on
with their business while the cases are
slowly dragging their way to the supreme
premo court , if so , the ordering of the
writs of injunction will have little prac
tical effect upon the city for some months
at least. Judge Theme 11 is expected hereon
on Saturday of next week and he will
probably taKe some action at that time.
He may order tlio clerk peremptorily to
issue the writs , or ho may have cases
broughtbcforo him for contempt.
Call and see the stock of horses and
mules at Star Stables before purchasing
elsewhere.

The Department Commander.
Pottawattamio county presents as a
candidate for Iho position of department
commander of Iowa G. A. R. tlio name of
E. A. Consigncy , of Avoca. His name is
receiving many words of hearty commen
dation. The Cedar Rapids Republican in
a recent editorial thus endorses him :
We take pleasure in adding to the list of
candidates already mentioned In the Repub
lican for the honorable position of depart
ment commander of Iowa ( > . A. U. the name
of E. A. Consign oj' , of Avocn , commander ot
U. S. Grant Post , No. 123 , of that city , and
brother of our well known citizen , Mr. George
J. Consigner. The following letter tells bet
ter than any words of ours cm tell the stand
ing of Mr. Consleuey as a soldier , for they
come from his old army colonel , who meas
ures him by the seveie tests of camp and
battle :
Editor Republican :

tion ot Grand Army men to E. A. Conslpney ,

prominently as a candidate for department
commander. Comrade Consigncy served in
trm First Vermont cavalry , and was "In at
the death" when Lee's army surrendered at
Appomnttox court house. Ho was a eallant
officer and an obedient soldier , and did as
faithful service as any one In the regiment.
The Grand Army boys cannot confer the
honor on any cue more deserving , or one
who would serve them more acceptably. In
honoring him we honor ourselves. Vouis
truly , W. G. CUMMIMIH ,

o
Mnch-ly Married.
Justice Darnett yesterday went over to
Omaha to testify in the case against Hugh
Thompson for bigamy. Thompson was
married in Justice Barnctt's oQiec on a
Sunday a couple of months ago to Anna
Mach and claimed to be from Creston ,
while his wife No. 2 was from Omaha.
For fear that the marrjago would become
public ho asked the judge to clear the"
room , there being a BEI : representative ,
a lawyer and a retail grocer who ex
pected to witness the ceremony. After
they retired the ceremony was performed
in the presence of two witnesses who had
come from Omaha to witness the proceed
ings. It was a bitter cold Sunday and as
the wedding party missed tlio a o'clock
train the groom hired a hack and drove
over the ice. Tlio driver being a stranger
in this city lost his way and did not find
the justice's ollice until nearly 5 o'clock.
After the ceremony was performed
Thompson purchased : i llask of sherry
wino to warm up the party , wlfo had be
come chilled by their Jong , tedious drive ,
and then returned to Omaha Yesterday
Thompson claimed he had not married
the Macli woman , when being tried before
Justice Anderson , but when he was con
fronted with the man who married him
he wilted and waived an examination ,
being placed under $500 bonds. Mrs.
Thompson No. 1 was also in attendance
at the trial.
A ChnrininK Actross.
There was a small audience "at the
opera house last evening to greet Miss
Lillian Lewis. Those who were in at
tendance were so greatly pleased , however -
over , that there will doubtless be full
houses this afternoon and evening. She
appuared last night as Cora in "The
Creole. " It is no light task to as
sume a role which Clara Mor
ris has made so famous , but Miss
Lewis carried the dillictilt part with
a wonderful showing of ability. In the
intensely emotional passages site was
really above criticism , thrilling the audi
ence and calling forth well merited ap
plause. Her support was excellent. Mr.
Walter Owen as George , aud Clifford
Dempsey as Victor Ma/.ilier , were espe-
.cially . worthy of mention. The other
members of the companv averaged well.
This afternoon "Frou Frou" is to bo
presented , and to-uight "Leah , the For
saken. "
Those who miss seeing Miss Lewis will
miss much. She certainly merits the
many words of praise -given her by the
coldest dramatic critics.
On complaint of Ins brother yesterday
a man named North was arrested for
a'jusing his wife.

The Cant of Jubllors.
London World : The public celebra
tion of the jubilee will involve a con
siderable outlay , for which a parlia
mentary vote will be necessary. The
cornoation of the queen cost about
.i'40,000 , against i'M.OOO for William IV. ,
and 210,000 for George IV. , anil in
many respects tlio coronation forms a
precedent for the jubilee. I hear that
there is to bo a special meeting of the
privy council next month , either at
Windsor castle or Buckingham palace ,
when the proposed arrangements and
estimates will be submitted. To this
council will bo summoned tlio prince of
Wales , the duke of Cambridge , the cabi
net , the great olHeers of tlio household ,
the archbishops of Canterbury and York ,
the bishop of London. Mr. Gladstone ,
Lord Hartington , Lord Granville , and
Lord Sidney. The details will subse
quently be settled by a committee se
lected from the aboro parsonages , witli
ono or two additions of permanent of
ficials , by whom all the work will doubt
less be done. Tno rough estimate for
the Thanksgiving service in Westminster
Abbey is 12,000. A magnificent display
of fireworks fiom Hyde Park in tlio even
ing is a good notion , but tlio idea of
"throwing open" the theaters to tlio pub-
lie on the night of Juno 20 is preposterous
and must be abandoned.
