No Mght Question.
The city council is informally discuss
ing the question of how best to light the
.streets. The present arrangement is
not proving very satisfactory , as to the
quality of gas , or the price. The oil
lights are declared to be fully as good as
the gas and much cheaper. Another
kind of oil lamp is being tested with a
view of adoption in botno parts of the
city. Some are in favor of shutting oil'
the gas , and'tis-ing FOIUO other method of
street-lighting , but the council does not
seem inclined to * take any such action
unless the aldermuu are unanimous , and
will agree to dlspcn.se with the gas as
long as they are in ollico , and have a vote
upon the question. There are some in
the council who protest against shutting
oil'tho gas , and then turning it on , and
thus continuing a series of expensive e\-
pcrimonts.Tliu charter of thogas company
does not expire until Februarys.1 ! ) , 188H.
When that time comes it is Imped that
th ; re will be cither better or cheaper
ways of lighting the streets. There
is a proposition to us > o electric lights , but
the electric light company is understood
to be unwilling to arrange for the tower
sv-Uim unless given a ten years' contract.
There is some objection raised to making
any such contract , for then the city would
bo'tied up in part , when the present gas
charter is out. Until that charter is out
the company has the exclusive right to
the streets for gas mains , etc. , anil no
other gas company can well come in to
bid against this ono. The question is ono
which IH bothering the aldermanic brains
somewhat. Some move will doubtless be
.soon made to get more light , and for less
money. At present the city's contract
with the tras company has expired , and
the streets are being lighted under a
monthly arrangement , liable to termi
nate at any time.

A Runaway Hurdler.
There was a lively runaway on Main
street yesterday. A horse and buggy be
longing to Mr. Grecnameyer were stand
ing near the postollico when the horse
became frightened at a bicycle passing.
The steed went at the business of fur
nishing a runaway item with a
good deal of enthusiasm. In about
two jumps he succeeded in scattering the
buggy so that there was not a quorum
loft of the pieces even , and dashing
across the street he gave a great hurdle
act , clearing at ono bound the team of
the Boston Tea company. In jumping
over this team ho cleared them without
a catch , except a remnant of the smashed
buggy catching in a tug and breaking
that. Feeling that he had done enough
for one day ho then allowed himself to
bo caught and led away peaceably. The
pieces ot buggy were swept up and
placed in an oxpres.s wagon.

ELECTRICITY !
DR. RICHARD'S ' Electric Bath Rooms and Office
Ho. 607 Busier St. , Council Bluffs.
One Square North of the P. O. Building.
Treatment and Baths Given Ladies by Mrs. Dr
Richards on Tuesday , Thursday & Saturday.
Electricity isa rlemarlcablc naturalagent which has long been known and utilized
as a rt-me dy fordscase and continued experience has enlarged its sphere of useful
ness and improved its appliances by which it is cmplo > ed until its utility a iul virtue
lias become second to no other known remedy , in the treatment of certain forms of
disease. This ngent is employed here in all its most serviceable forms by the aid of
large batteries , static machin'cis , electric cabinet baths , electric water baths , the elec
tric chair and electrodes for treating all partb of the body. We are prepared to do
all that can be done with these great remedies. In cakes of Rheumatism , Neuralgia ,
Paralysis , Spinal Irritation , Rectal Diseases , Nervous Diseases in females arising
from Uterine disorders and many other chronic and subacutc troubles , It stands at
the head of all known remedies or methods cure. A thorough study of it for years
and the successful treatment of hundreds of cases , after all other remedies had fail
ed , is sufficient evidence of its great worth and perfectly satisfies us with its good
ell'ecls on the diseased body. In the great hospitals and sanitarians of America
and Europe , electricity is leading ail other methods of treatment. In aH leading
colleges the professors are teaching electricity as one of the potent remedies and a
special chair is appointed in manv of them. Many of the ablest physicians of _ all
who would as often advise and use the wrong current as the right one or depend
upon it in diseases for which it is not adopted. We are sure that when the people
become educated in the use of electricity ( or many diseases with which the body
Is afflicted and find the great good therein , the medicines and patent righted nos-
tiums upon which they now rely will grow old and dusty on the shelves. Electricity
is nature's great remedy and to fully understand and skilfully apply it is our effort
and aim in life.
