Alderman Keller is reported as saying
yesterday that if a majority of his con

him to vote for the Tenth avenue ordi

can rcndlly bo secured for him , but it
scorns it ought not to bo necessary for an
alderman to take a vote of his ward every
time a question comes up for him to de
cide upon. Ho ought to know pretty
well the footings of the public , without
such a petition on a matter of this kind.
Among the most prominent in the
move for the Tenth avenue project has
been Mr. Lucius Wells. This fact-wag
well known , and with the fact fully be
fore the people , and his record as an en
thusiastic supporter of the enterprise , he
was nominated for alderman at largo by
both political parties , was elected unan
imously , and virtually upon this issue ,

Citizens' Meeting.
There are numerous conjecture' ' ? as to
what will bo the nature of the mass moot
ing of citizens called for the Masonic hall
tills evening. Some look forward to it as
an opportunity of pouring forth the vials
of wrath upon the heads of Aldermen Kel
ler , Danforth and Hammer , for refusing
to vote in favor of the now Tenth avenue
ordinance. These expect it to bo an in
dignation meeting. It is claimed that
there has been for months a thorough
trial of the persuasive plan and that
these means having signally failed it Is
time to use square words and call tilings
by plain names.
Others deem such a course unwise.
They wont to have those who understand'
the bearings of this ordinance explain its
importance to the citizen.1 } so that all may
sec the needs of the hour. Tlion if thus
convinced that some action is necessary
they will bo ready to vote for some
expression which will have , perhaps ,
some weight with the throe who arc now
bo severely censured on the streets. The
.suggestion is made that these three
aldermen should explain to the citizens
thcro gathered why they refuse to vote
for tiio ordinance. Alderman Hammer
is not in the city , having gone on busi
ness to Wisconsin. The two others
might yolco his views , however.
All citizens , as well as the oJUcials and
others , are invited to bo present this
evening , for r.ll can at least agree on the
main object of the. meeting , which evi
dently Is to find out what is best for the
city to do and how to get it done. .
Representing nanfortli.
"I don't blame Danforth for opposing
the Tenth avenue ordinance. The old
man has an Idea that it would hu rt his
Uroadway property. Ho has put up a
block of buildings with a belief that the
Uroadway dummy depot would always
lie thcro to help his property. Now he
thinks that this ordinance is the opening
wcdgo for a change by which his prop
erty will not be to valuable. It doesn't
make any difference whether his .fear is
well fou ndcd or not , so long as ho feels
that way ho ain't to bo blamed for voting
as he docs. "
Such was the opinion of an old citizen
and heavy property owner as expressed
to the BUK yesterday.
"But Mr. Danforth was elected as nl-
clorninn at largo , was ho not ? Was he not
elected to represent the city and not Si
Danforth ? "
"Yes , that's so. There's no denying
what he ought to do. I simply say that I
don't blame him , bcc.itiso ho simply acts
as most other men would act. 1 tell you
aldermen are human , ami when a man
thiuks ills own property is going to bo
cut elF from some bcnelit , ho is apt to
kick , whether ho is In the council or not.
But 1 can't see what reason the other
aldermen have. Hammer and Keller
liaye no pressure of this kind , and it
seems as if they must bo either under
Uncle Si's thumb clso liavo
, or some un
known .reason. "
A by-stanUer made the suggestion , "If
Danforth is simply in the council to rep
resent Danforth , wouldn't It be a good
idea for him to resign and let some other
man represent the city at large ? Ho
could go oil'by himself and hold his own
council and represent Danforth , and
carry himself by a unanimous vote. If
he doesn't want to represent the city nt
largo , why doesn't ho say sol"
Short-Lived Sensation.
Yesterday morning the police were
turned loose upon a sensation and spent
several hours hunting it up and running
it down. A worthy citizen , whoso wife
has had much trouble in securing help in
the kitchen , made arrangements with a
country girl while ho was out on a trip.
The girl agreed to como to this city and
work in the family , and ho wrote his wife
informing her to that effect and tolling
her that the girl would arrive on Tues
day morning's train. Ho posted the girl ,
who .was only fifteen or sixteen , giving
her the number of the house and telling
her to have u hackman take her at once
to the place from the depot. The girl
did not appear hero as expected , but
nothing very strange was thought of this ,
ns such disappointments are com
mon. The girl's trunk was brought
up to the house , however , by an ex
pressman , who said ho knew nothing
about the Mrl , as he had boon give a the
check for the trunk by a hackman. As
the cirl had not appeared yesterday
morning , there began to be some fears
that she had boon misled , she being a
simple country girl , unused to city ways.
The police found the expressman who
brought the truuk to the house , and from
him learned the name of the hackmau
who had given him the check. It was
learned that the hackman had taken the
girl into his carriage , but the girl's
whereabouts could not bo learned. The
sensation was furthered by the fact that
the hackman had gone out of town , or
had hidden himself. The disappearance
of both the girl and the hackman con
firmed the suspicion that there was some
thing wrong , and the search was
renewed with fresh vigor. It was
nt last learned that the girl had an undo
living in this city , and on arriving hero
she had the hackman take her to her un
cle's house. The undo had found a place
for the girl in ono of the laundlcs , and
she preferred that plnco to woik in a pri
vate family. While she was thus set
tling down to the duties of her now posi
tion , the hackman was getting on ono of
his periodicals , and to put the finishing
climax to the spree wont over to Omaha.
The two thus being accounted for , mid
their disappearance being explained the
police wiped elf the sweat , nnd sat down
to talk over the uncertainty of appear
ances.
Women BuffteraRe.
Twenty-four hours passed and the police -
lice had not made an nrrost. There was
not a man drunk enough to pick , and the
bluo-coats got discouraged. They
concluded that if they could not find any
men they would ranko a round-up of the
women , Swede Mary was the first one
found , nnd was placed behind the bars.
Others quickly followed until there were
five females booked for vagrancy. Olll-
cers lloso and Unthank brought the last
ono in. Slio was found about 8 o'clock
yesterday morning chasing snakes up
Uroadway. After being placed inside
the station she objected to the Dolico al
lowing a man to stay in her cell who had
no head on him. She insisted that ho was
there , and that ho was a homblo looking
fellow. Then she jumped up on to a
chair , and tried to got out of the way of
the snakes who formed the legs of the
chair. Then she wanted a gossamer to
keep her from getting wet , there being a
lot of snakes over her head who kept
spitting at hor. She htid a horrible night ,
and when brought tofore Judge Ayles-
worth yesterday morning she told a fear
ful tale of the horrors of the place. The
judge mpnthizcd with her , told her that
It was no lit place to keep a lady , for
there had been so many drunks locked
up thcro that the air WHS full of snakes
nnd other frlghtfuls. He would let her
go to a nice boarding house for ton days ,
and sent an oflicer with her to show her
the way to the Hotel O'Neill.

Friedman's Sprlug Display of Milli
nery nnd Fancy Uootla.
The well known establishment of II.
Friedman was last evening thronged
with eager admirers of the display of
new spring goods. Ono of the largo
show windows was devoted entirely to a
wonderful displayof hats , while the other
was filled with ladies' underwear. The
interior of the store was a blaze of light
and beauty. Laces , ribbons , feathers
and llowcrs , bonnets and velvets , orna
ments and novelties , fancy articles , n
bewildering variety of goods , charm
ingly arranged made the plnco almost n
fatry bower , save that in magnitude it
exceeded the limits generally conceded
as belonging to the tiny creatures of en
chanted land. In the spring opening Mr.
Friedman has certainly surpas&ca all
former efforts even. The display is ono
which would ho creditable to the
leading millinery establishment of
a metropolis. The millinery de
partment was especially thronged ,
there being almost a crush there , the
ladies all eager to see the numerous and
beautiful bonnets and hats there dis
played. Mrs. Mitchell , who lias charge
of this department , was justly the re
cipient of many compliments last even
ing on her taste of selection and arrange
ment. The evening dill not sufilce to enable -
able all who desired an opportunity of in
specting the display , and the oncning
will continue to-day and this evening.

The Height of Illith AVntor.
For the bcnelit of the citizens the BEE
publishes tno following statement , it be
ing the height reached by the Missouri
river during the Into rise. The statement
is from the report of Manager Birkin-
bmo , of the waterworks company , as
taken at 0 o'clock each morning. The
figures indicate the height above low
water mark :

On March 20 at C o'clock in the even
ing the river was at its highest , it then
being 18 feet C inches nbovo low water
mark. At 0 o'clock that morning it was
17 feet 8 incites and reported as fallling ,
but during the day it raised 10 iuclrcs.
Since then it has continued to fall slowly
and yesterday it was 10 feet 0 inches
above low water.
The highest the river has ever reached
in the history of Council Bluffs was in
1891 when it was gorged with ice south
of the city. The highest it then reached
was 21 foot 0 inches , just a feet below the
recent rise.
The channel now keeps well along the
Iowa side from the Northwestern rip
raps down to "Gumbo Point" nbout nv-
cnuo G , and then crosses to the Nebraska
side between the smelting works
and tno 'Omaha water works , where it
keeps close to the Nebraska side down.
Considerable cutting has been done by
the river but it has been confined to the
spacn between Avenues C. and II. It is
a noticeable fact that when the rlycr is
high it does very little cutting , that all
being done when it is low. when it
roaches up to the gumbo it docs not out.
but when it is low it cuts the quick sand
from in under the surface and flnallv the
surface , after being undermined , drops.
The old levee built in 1883 , after the
1881 rise proved n valuable protection ,
and since men it has been extended so
that although on the now part the water
came up two feet , this city was kept per
fectly free from hood , this spring , while
other points around the city and on the
other side suffered greatly.
