A child of William Acres , living near the river , died Tuesday night of conges tion of the Jungs. The funeral was held yesterday afternoon , Last evening Mr. Albert Smith and Mary A. Pierce wore happily wedded by the ofliciation of Justice bchur/ , the cer emony taking place on upper Broadway. Mr. A. L. Ingram and Miss Villie Miller , of Silver City , wore married yesterday afternoon at "the residence of Clement Wesley , Esq. , 1)03 ) Sixth street , by the Kcv. G. W. Crofts. Hoper and Peterson , the two young men field hero for having been enticing from home two giildy girls , wore dis charged yesterday , the parents of the girls not caring to prosecute , and gain any further notoriety for their daughters. One of the pantry boys at the Ogdcn house yesterday met with quite a serious accident while trying to learn to ride a bicycle on Pierce street. The vehicle was ono of the new feather-weights , and us he got fairly .started on it the back bone became dislocated , letting him to the ground without warning. Judge Thorncll is expected to hold a brief session of court hero Saturday. It is understood that no action will be taken in regard to the saloon injunction cases , as there are already pending before the supreme court some of the questions raised in the cases hero. The action hero will bo governed somewhat by the deci sion on those questions. The Cottage hospital has tlirco patients , who seem to bo receiving the very best sort of care. The hospital should bo generously remembered in these days of general prosperity and bright prospects. It is ono of the most laudable enterprises yet started hero , and the ladies who had the courage to organize the charitable work should bo strongly sustained. Oscar Kiplingor , of Moore & Kiplinger , has returned from C uincy , where ho has boon selecting furnishings and fittings for their retail cigar store. They pur pose transforming the interior of the place , making it ono of the most hand- eomo stores in that fine in the country. They have sot their aim at having a finer cigar store than any west of Chicago , and will doubtless make it a beauty , The Council Bluffs Carpet company has added to its establishment a manu factory of awnings and tents. There has boon a crcat need for some home factory in this line , as the city has had to depend almost altogether on agents from a dis tance. With a homo concern , of such well known reliability , the city can now got its awnings and tents made right hero , and as they want. The enterprise will doubtless bo a success from the tart , and should bo heartily cncour aged. McCloud and Brooks , the two young men arrested for stopping and robbing a stranger , were yesterday released , the victim not returning from Nebraska to prosecute. Ho promised to bo hero as soon as lie got through some pressing business m Nebraska , but it scorns that ho has either changed his mind about the two young men being guilty , or from sonic other cause has concluded to lot the matter drop. It is said that the , friends of ono 01 the young men gave ' ' him money to leave town , and if this is BO it may account for his failure to re turn to prosecute.

UNCLE SAMUEL'S ' FINANCES , No Money For Fees and Hence No Trials By Jury This Term , THE BUILDING PROSPECTS. I/nkc Mannwn to no Mndc Until a Win ter nnd Hummer Ilcsort A Little Girl J ntlcrd Front Home The Doings ol' the City Council. No Money For Juries , The United States courts meet here next Monday , Judge 1-ovo and Judge Shlras presiding. There will bo no jury cases , as there is no money with which to pay the jurymen. Tnis may.seem strange to many , and the idea badly presented that Uncle Sam has not enough money to pay jury fees , is 11 decidedly sensa tional one. The fact is , however , that there is nothing so very sensational about it after all. Uncle Samuel is not so near bankruptcy as the statement , without ex planation , would imply. Under the ap propriation bill a certain amount is set aside for the jurii's. This is divided up into allowances for certain periods of six months each. For instance a certain portion tion of the appropriation was for jury fees during the six months ending June 150. That amount has already been ex hausted. The amount appropriated for the .succeeding six months cannot be touched yet. This has frequently hap- licned in the past , and such deficiencies have been bridged over in various ways. Generally the marshal borrows the money necessary to run the courts , and gets it back by a deficiency bill passed by congress. A'deficiency bill was in the last session , but it failed to get through , being crowded out. Marshal Knot used to advance the money , borrowing it on his own responsibility. Colonel Chatmian used to do likewise in such cases. Colonel Hoot at one time Had thus advanced about 11,000 , and he had quite a delay and sull'orcd much vexation of soul before the necessary refund could bo secured , so slow and minute are the movements of government. Marshal Campbell docs not propose to be pinched in any such manner. He has already advanced some , but ho will not follow further in the foot steps of his predecessors. Such is the situation financially , which causes an abandonment of jury trials during the coming terms of court. The terms will not amount to a great deal , therefore , and may litigants having cases pending will be obliged to wait until the next term if they want to have the cases ' heard by juries.

A number of real estate dealers and property owners went on an inspection trip to Lake Manawa yesterday after noon. The exact purpose of the excur sion is a mystery , revealed only to the initiated. Numerous are the conjectures , but in view of the proposed great im provements in this summer resort , the visit evidently has something to do with that feature of the boom , Considerable more stock was yesterday subscribed to the Lake Manawa street railway company , and it is certain that this enterprise will be pushed to a speedy completion. The amount of travel to the resort last season was so great , amounting in fact to a daily rush , that it is evident with increased accommoda tions and attractions there will bo a greater crowd this season. The lake it- .self is in bettor condition than at this time last season , and everything in dicates that it will bo much more popular than ever before. The stock of this rail way will therefore prove profitable to in vestors , and at the same time help the growth of the city. These enterprises , if thus quickly and liberally started , will make this season the most prosperous Council BluIVs ever enjoyed. It is proposed not merely to make this a summer resort , but a winter one as well. There is no reason why cold weather amusements should not draw big crowds there , with the easy transit and comfort able accommodationsboingplanued. An ice carnival , a toboggan slide , skating and other frosty fun is promised for next wjntor. Such a place as is to bo prepared will draw people here from all parts of the west , as there is no such site for many miles in any direction. Last season there was very little tlicre to draw people , in comparison with what is now being planned , and very few accommodations m proportion , but all remember what crowds went tliero , and what jolly times wore had , even under such rude and in itiatory arrangements. With the im provements to be made this spring , the crowds will form almost a crush. I hereby give notice to all concerned not to trust my wife on my account after this date , as 1 will pay no bills of her contracting. FUANK BOLWULL , Council Bluffs , March 21st 1837. Contractors and builders will find it to their interest to got prices on lime , ce ment , plaster , hair , etc. , from Council Bluffs Fuel company , 039 Broadway. Telephone 130. nuildine Improvements. Besides the several largo building ? , so often cnumcratod , there are so many smaller ones planned for , and some al ready commenced , that it is dillicult to keep track of them. It is estimated that this season will sea at least 800 dwelling houses built hero , and many predict more than that number. There are many who have already started in improving.prop- erty already occupied by thorn , enlarging , rclitting , and making various changes for the better. Plumbers , painters , car penters , papercrs , all are being kept busy. Architect Maxon says ho has drawn more plans , and that there is more building in sight for this season than ever before in the history of the city. Among them is a series of Hats on Seventh street , near the Bloomer school building. There will also bo a Queen Anne cottage built by Judge James. Martin Hughes , Owen YYickham and others will put up private residences. J. W. Peregoy , W. A. Maurcr . . and others are planning on put ting up line residences There is a great demand for tenement houses , and capital will bo invested largely in this direction this season. There are many working * men who are planning on putting up homes of lesser value. With lots so cfceap hero , a homo is within reach of a man of moderate income. The building association is entering upon the liveliest year of its history , and with its assistance alone there will bo a new house built every fifteen days throughout the season. The lumber yards have been stocking up more heavily than ever , another sure in dication that they are expecting a big demand for boards. Wns She Kidnapped ? Yesterday afternoon a little daughter ot Samuel Eporson , night watchman at the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul , ills- appeared in a mvMcrlous manner from her homo , No , 017 Third avenue. - She was playing around the yard , and a few minutes later was not to be sqou any * whore. The neighbors saw a man In .tho yard , talking with the.-child , who is only three years old , and saw her oinc down the street with him , ho having her by the hand. This gave rise , naturally , to tlio report that the child had been kidnapped. The distracted parents entered upon a search of the citv. About two hours later , us Chief Mullen was on lower Broadway , a lady came to him with the child , saying that the little one was evi dently lost , and had como from the di rection of Washington avcnuo. The child was taken to the station , and the news of the Uniting telephoned to the anxious homo , so that the little one was speedily rcs-torcd to her parents. The little one said that she went off with a man , bntsho is so young that no very in telligent details could bo learned from her. The City Km hers.

AMBITIOUS 'AMERICANS. Musical Students in Italy Who Suffer Privation and Misery. New York Commercial Advertiser : A correspondent writes from Milan that the condition of young women there and in Italy at large who wish to sing in pub lic is deplorable. He says the city is. full of American girls with operatic aspl rations that are doomed to bitter disap pointmcnt. Some of them are positively suffering for want of the necessaries o"f jitu. No one , he adds , can make a career in Italy without money. Most of our countrywomen pay for the priv ilege of appearing on the stage ; pay for notices in the newspapers ; pay for every thing like courtesy or criticism. Not a few of them go there , and after spend ing several thousand of doll'irs find that they have gained nothing. A New York girl wrota homo not long since : "The amount of misery , blasted hope and brokcnhcartedness in this city ( Milan ) can hardly bo described. It is dreadful to think of unprotected girls coming here , whore the men nave as a rule , no principle and arc absolutely destitute of morality. " The agents who undertake to manage their atlairsnre almost always rascals of the vilest sort , such as would not be tolerated for an instant in the United States. Italy is , as respects an opportunity to sing , -a delusion and i snare. The Italians who have any connection noction with the 'opera-houses are mor ally robbers , and even worse. Their in famy can scarcely be convolved m thu country , where , happily , they have 110 parallels. \ $ UOOOOOOO Dry Goods Man.

Nevada City boasts of a strong man , a big Cornish minor , who the other day , when a rider's saddle turned and threw him to the ground with his foot fast in the stirrup , soi/.ed the frightened horse by the tail and held him by main strength until Uio ihlor was rescued from his dan * geroua situation.
