Yesterday a young sparrow flew into Maudiil's store , and on being cantured was placed in a c-igo with a canary. The canary seemed to bo endowed with a wonderful amount of hospitality. It proceeded to feed the young sparrow aa though it had been its mother , the little one not bolng old enough to take to the feed in veteran manner. The pair of feathered prisoners were watched with much interest by those in the store , anil after a little the sparrow was given its liberty. It How out of the door into the street in a bewildered way , but soon caught the cries of the older sparrows , who wore evidently watching and wait- lug for its return. The young sparrow tin ally joined them , and the meeting was fully as interesting as the prison scene in which the canary took so well the part of hostess.

NEWSY BITS FROM THE BLUFFS The Knights of Labor Want Contractors to Hire liorno Help. QUARTERS OF THE NEW CLUB. A Knrm Hand Hklps With lllH ttm- plojcr'n Cnuli-Sunday .School Workers to Gather In Ncoln Personal Mention. 1'rntrctliiK Homo Iintior. Tl.o Knights of Labor at , a recent meet ing took action to secure , if posiiblo , more protection for home labor. Ihey appointed a committee to wait upon the council and pre.Mjnt a written request that hereafter no work should bo let to a contractor unless the contractor would agree to employ home laborers in prefer ence to outsiders. The can e leading to this request was that in times past con tractors having large amounts of work to do for the city have brought laborers in here , who remained only while the work was in progress , and the workingmcn * living in the city the year round were not given employment. The knights wanted the council to put into their contracts here after .some clause which would prevent tins injustice if possible. The original petition of the knights has disappeared and it is said to have been loaned to one of the reporters of an evening paner who failed to return it. Its purport was given to the council afresh , and inconsequence the council adopted the following resolu tion : ItvHolvcd , That the contiaotnrshoso bide are accepted for any public work bo re ( inested to employ Council Hlulli laborers lor all \\ork where practicable , nndlinu Mich labor can be piocmod tit reasonable \siL't'-t , or s.iimt rates as arc paid elsewhere for the vime work. The Knights naturally look at this resolution as amounting to nothing at all. It is simply an invitation to con tractors , and has no eilectin reaching the desired protective point for which the Knights started out. Tim Knights desire the council to pass ; > , resolution in ellVct as follows , and to have it made u corporate part of any and all eonti acts hereafter for city work : Itosolu'd. That the contractors \\hoeblds aie accepted tor anv public work bo i vim i red to employ Council Hluffs labor for all work , wlien such labor can be piocined at le.isou- able \\nies. Some of the leading members of the order declare that they will have the matter up in the assemblies again , and take frcsli action , so as to force the coun cil to either refuse to do anj tiling , or else give them the desired protection. They say they do not want any such meaning less resolution as that passed by the council. The Union Depot. The acceptance of the Tenth avenue ordinance by the Union Pacilio railway is an indication that the expected im provements will proceed now rapidly. The track will soon bo laid , the now freight depot erected , and all the desired advantages resulting therefrom are to bo looked for at once. The public see more in it , however , than the .securing of ad ditional freight facilities , however im portant these may bo to the heavy whole sale houses in that part of the city. The move is looked upon as the key to the problem of the union depot. It is the entering wedge. The establishing of the freight house , and the laying of the track , is to be followed by an enthusias tic move for a largo union depot , accord ing to those wjio are best posted in what is being planned. It scorns that there is nothing now in the way of this project , and the only delay to be looked for are such as are inevitablv connected with the arranging of the preliminaries of so extensive - tensive a project. The citi/ens began to doubt whether the Union Pacific was to take the ordinance , but now that it is ac cepted , they begin to have more hope and doubts as to the future arc disappear ing rapidly , Sunday School Workers.

Ihe New Club lloonin. Architect Maxon has completed the plans for the club rooms of the Council Hind's- club , but the executive committee have not yet approved them. This will probably be done , though , in a day or so. The plans show three dining rooms con nectcd by arches , two parlors , two cloak rooms , one for ladies , the other for gen tlemen : two closets , two toilets , kitchen , china closet , pantry , oflice , etc. There is to bo a regular club house en trance on Main street behind the First National bank , and this will bo of cut stone and nicely decorated. It is the intention to increase the membership to 203 , and the committee having that part of the work In hand are securing names as rapidly as possible. Such business and professional men as have not been yet called upon , need not wait but can hand their names in. Musical McGlbonya. The McGibeny family is to appear at the opera house Monday evening , May 10. 'Ihoy appeared hero about a year ago and met with great success. Those who heard them at that time will be more anxious to hear them again , while there are many who missed that opportunity who will gladly improve the present one. The family is certainly a wonderful one and their concerts are very enjoyable. The programmes do not embrace as much classical musio as many concert companies oiler , but there is a sweetness to their musio which renders it wonder fully popular. The family have just had a successful winter tour in the far west and in California , and are now on their return. One of the charms of the con certs given by the family U that they com prise both instrumental and vocal artists thus giving a great variety to their outer tainiuonts. _ Skipped By the Ll ht of thu Day. A short time ago A. W. Wyman , the well known Keg Creek farmer , hired a man to work on his place. Yesterday morning the man was not seen arounc the place , but U was thought that he was out In some of the fields at work , until investigation showed that ho had dlsap- > carcd altogether. It was also discov ered that there had been some thieving : oing on. The most important loss wns VS in cash. Word was sent to this city to In ; police to look out for the fellow , nnd Jlllccr Dynr found him at the dummy lopot. On being arrested and searched ibout $1 was found on his person. He mil invested in a new shirt and new hat , vhlcli would account for the balance of ho money lost. Thu fellow had little to say , and was locked up to await a hear- ng in court. Attention.

POSSIBILITIES OF BASE BALL. iVhat the Future May flrlnc Tor IMlchurs nnd Catchers. St. Paul ( ilobo : Age has wrought a great change in basis ball. There is as ntich dillercnco between the base ball of en years ago and that of to-day as there s between a prairie schooner and a rail- vay train. When George. Wright , Ross Jarnos , Harry Wright , Al Spaulding and Xctler twirled the sphere pitching was lill'ercnt from w hat it is now. This do- lartment , in fact , has undergone the rreatost change. The pitcher now is the tiling clement ; then he was not , because hero was no latitude allowed him. Straight arm and over arm throwing was lot allowed , and curves and twists were inknown. If a man had suggested the alter at that time ho would ha\o icon shot. The pitcher simply ent the ball over the plate. The nearer 10 could have approached hitting he bat the butter he was. No strategy vas used except that of varying tiie > pecd ot thu ball. Scotes used to run so iit > h tha't it took two men to score. Hut a clnuigo began. People tired of .slugging. They wanted some science. The inana- ; ers caught on to thu demand. Restric- ions began to bo taken from the pitcher , t'hc lirit was forbidding him to throw be- ow the waist. IIo was allowed to throw ho ball anywhere below thu shoulder. . .ator ho could throw unvwhcre ho chose , ind the game became one of pitchers. The hard-worked pitcher has had otic of varied experience. Ho used to stand jack and look on. There was no picking thu shoots oil' the very edtro of the bat ; 10 ininaitiiru jail about his head ; no juckskin about Ins lingers ; no liver pads on his chest. When the balls began to net whiskers as n result of ehaiigo in pitch- nsr , ho found it necessary to jogin to protect his hands , until to-day they look , when ready for ser vice , like the pillow in a child's cot. A friend of the catcher then conceived thu dca of a chest protector and thu bat tered end of the battery's armor was com plete. In spite ot all these contrivances , iqwevor , split and broken lingers , wrists and anns are still plentiful among catch ers , and it is thought that before many years the pitcher will catch through .Kidded holes in a fence or in a scoop not itanding a few fcut one side of the bat ter. A genius has now struck a plan which he will spring shortly , through means of which a ganio can bo played without pitcher or catcher. A "small Krupp gun will be placed in the pitcher's box to take the pitcher's place. An ironbound - bound , steel-plated fence will bo placed behind the batter. A small boy will be secured to load the gun , put the base ball in it and lire it at thu batter. The Fence will send back the ball on the re- Doiind. Even if a few small boys and batters are killed , what dilTuronco will it make ? The world is full of both. The umpire will be clothed , according to the plan , in steel armor. Death-dealing foul tips will no longer have any terror tor bin ) , while the argcr and yells of the umpires in the grand stand will not phase him. Possibly lie will be supplied with revolver , slung-shotand dirk to per- Miado the plavcrs that he knows his busi ness. The ollicial scores will bo encased in a wire cage until the chasers have been chased into their quarters. That will protect them from the wrath and vengeance of the man whose ledger ac count of errors grows quicker than they think it should. Iiitlainination ol'tho Kidneys. BA/.AAK , Guts * : Co. . KAN , Feb. 10 , I860. I have been alllieted with chronic in flammation of the kidneys. I sufl'crcd so much pain that 1 could not lie on my back or lean back against a chair. My water also contained a chalky sediment. I tried many remedies , but could get no relief. I then took two AU.COPK'S Pi.AsrKits and put one over each kinney , making them moot on my back-bone. These plasters , strange as it may seem , cured mo in a week. AH soreness was gone , and my urine was natural. R. C. HAHHIS. The TIIIO System of Advertising. The Philadelphia Times says the waste of money by ill-advised advertisements is nearly or quito as much as would liberally advertise our trade in the best channels. Many establishments spend more for costly circulars and their distri bution than would present their business to hundreds of thousands of thrifty deal ers through widely spread newspapers , and a circular seldom reaches others than a servant as it passes to the waste basket or kindling box. The advertisements of our leading retail stores arc as regularly read in the leading newspapers by men , women and children in fami lies , as the weather , market and fashion reports. They are niado as fresh and readable as genius and skill can make them , and while cir culars serve tin ) only purpose of starting the morning ( ire the wise advertiser daily summons his customers from the homes of the land , and his advertising is the life of his trade. Thu fact that there n not a great advertiser in legitimate trade in this city who has not gathered a fortune from his business , while old and apparently well-established houses have languished and died , is conclusive proof that the newspaper that commands large circles of intelligent and progressive readers is the open highway to business success and fortune. IB Death Painless ? A Philadelphia doctor , after years of careful observation , says that our demise is as painless as our advent to the world. This is certainly reassuring ; yet notwith standing thcso great inducements we still do not court death , and shall continue to use Dr. Picrco's infallible remedy , the "Golden Medical Discovery , " for con sumption , spitting of blood , shortness of breath , weak lungs , coughs , bronchitis , and kindred affections 01 the throat and chest. It is nncqualcd. By druggists. \ Four-Hollar Coin. Dr. William Dickinson says in the St. Louis ( ilobo Democrat : Within the past month a $1 United States coin has turned up in this city , and people interested in such matters have talked about it a great deal. I hear the owner of tbo piece called at thci sub-treasury and was told that the government never coined such a piece. This Is a mistake , though there were never a great many of ( horn coined. The committee on coinage.weights and meas ures , which lias the subject in charge and looks after designs for improving the coinage in respect to si/.o. denomination or appearance , frequently instructs the superintendent ofltlie mint to execute new patterns or rxporlmbntal pieces , for nspcclion , and if they arc deemed wor thy of adoption "thiin , the com- mitten frames ami introduces the necessary bill In congress , t'ndcr this arrangement a scries of coins was lovlscii In 187i > , Known as the Stella , hav ing the value of ? ! , United States stand ard. The design was approved by the committee and a bill introduced antici- | > ating a now metalic coin for interna tional use. Thu coin was the si/u of a nickel , representing "Liberty head" turned to the left on tho. obverse , with " 187l " below , thirteen stars , with ligures and letters interspersed , denoting the proportion of gold allov. etc. ; on the re verse , above , "United "States , " with a large live-rayed star , "Stella , " in the cental * , and below , "Onu Stella , -100 cents , " and "Deo est ( Jloria , " and still below , "Four Dol. " This was struck in proof. The Stella is one of the set desig nated metric goloid.thi * other two being the metric dollar and the goloid metric dollar. Twenty sets only were struck early In 1871) ) , to bo submitted to the com mittee ; a little later 100 sets were struck , and still later ! ! 00 sets wcru ordered coined. 1 huso were oflured to members of congress and personal and political friends on paj incut of their intrinsic valuu. Then -100 sets were coined in 1880 , bearing the date of 1879 , and of these about 'JoO found their way into miscella neous hands , and thu remaining 150 arc belinvcd to be still in the vaults of the mint. Of the original twenty sots , a few were sold as high as iJlOO , and the prices of these subsequently coined ranged down to fron. sfoO to $12.fiO. Separately , the Stella now sells for about ! ? . " , and tin sel of three pieces at ! ? ( ! .50 to $7.oO. The ) ill for their issue , however , failed to bu- como a law. That tired feeling and loss of apjietitc are entirely ovetcomu by Hood's ' Sarsa- panlla , the peculiar medicine. Try it nut see. thai Tnll.UliinpIl JntMf of ( nrktt.
