The board of equalization is going
through the assessor's books as rapidly
as possible. They have got to "Plf , and
uro taking the list alphabetically. Much
of the work is being done by committees ,
who report to the board a a whole.
There are many who are having their as
sessments raised.
Mr. Stout , the now owner of the Ogden
IIOUBO I property , is expected to return
from Texas to-night. * It is expected that
before leaving the city again ho will
niako the proposed improvements in the
Ogdcn house , putting in an elevator , lay
ing tile floors , etc. It is his intention to
put the hotel in first-class shape every
way.
it is reported that two young men , Ed
Kesscl and Harry King , who have for
some time past been peddling rugs about
the oltv have skipped town leaving sev
eral creditors. It appears that in one
instance at least , they collected two dollars
lars and failed to deliver the goods and
it is more than probable that there uro
other victims about the city. They have
been absent from their place of business ,
No. 124 Broadway , for several days.
A little more light is thrown upon the
fact that some of the evergreens lately
planted at Fairmount park wore pulled
up. and afterwards hastily replanted.
Fred Stockman says ho saw some boys
nulling up those young trees last Satur
day , and ho made them plant thorn again.
If the young offenders could bo rondo to
Buffer a little it might be a lesson , not
only to them , but a warning to others
who are so reckless and wanton in their
doings in the parks.
The case of Kirscht & Co. vs Gray has
been dragging along in the courts for
months. The plaintiff filed a pe
tition in Justice Barnctt's court
for an attachment to secure a
claim of $14.I'ho writ was issued ,
and a number of horses and other prop
erty were attached. It is claimed that
about fUfjO worth of stock was seized to
secure this claim of $14 , and since then
the case has come up in the courts sev
eral times to got portions of the property
released. Now the case comes before
Judge Aylesworth on a writ of error , the
chief point in which is the claim that
Gray Is not a resident of this county , but
lives in Harrison. The case has been
submitted , but no decision rendered.
' 1 he costs which have accumulated now
amount to considerable more than the
amount of the original claim.
'Squire Biggs has been having an in
teresting civil case in his eourt. The in *
terest wan maintained more by the ill-
feeling as shown between some of those
Rnrticipating in the trial than the quos-
ons involved. The case was that of
Sheafo vs. Pat McNeil ) , a brakeman on
the Union Pacific. The original claim
was for house rent , and Sheafo garni-
Bhocd. There were counter claims , but
K judgment was rendered against the de
fendant. MoNcill became so abusive in
his talk to one of the attorneys that the
latter appealed to the court for protec
tion. By the aid of the constable ,
who threateningly waved his cane , order
was restored and the case went on , but
there were frequent outbreaks after
wards. The feeling exhibited made the
trial an interesting one to lookers-on.

THE NEWS IN THE BLUFFS ,

For Sewerage.
TO-NIGHT'S PARK CONCERT.

The Sewer Contract.
The city council met again last night.
Present , Mayor Groneweg and all the
aldermen.
The committee on streets and alloys
reported in favor of awarding the con
tract on sewers to W. P. Wlghtman as
the lowest bidder.
Alderman Lacy , of that committee ,
madb a minority and adverse report.
Ho thought Unit tlin advertisement was
not sutlicicntly explicit , and the bidders
did not understand it fully , Ho was in
favor of rejecting all bids and rcadvcr-
Using the work. On the surface of the
bids it scenu.'d that Mr. Wightman's bid
was the lowest , but it was not complete
( inough , and by certain constructions it
might not prove the lowest.
There was considerable discussion
about technical dill'crenccs in the bids ,
but Alderman Lacy seemed to stand
alone. When the test vote was taken the
majority ronort was adopted , thus giving
the much discussed sewer contract to Mr.
Wightraan. Mr. George Miller is inter
ested with him in tlio contract.
Alderman Keller moved the iiro de
partment be permitted to take one of the
steamers to Sioux City at the tourna
ment there. Adopted.
The same alderman reported that the
fire alarm system was complete except
one matter. The line should bo extended
to the waterworks , so as to give an
alarm there the same time as at the on-
ginp houses. Some hydrants needed
a direct pressure at once in case of lire.
\\oulit cost $75 to run the line , and
Harry Birkinbino proposed to put in a
gong at his own expense. No action
was taken.
Alderman Lacy inquired why the now
fire alarm system was not finally tested.
Alderman Keller started to explain
that tlio .superintendent of the company ,
Mr. McCullough , was busy at anlither
place.
The maypr suggested that there was
little time to spend in discussing this
matter.
Alderman Keller made , however , the
explanation that it was just as well , in
fact bolter for tiio city to put off the date
of testing as long as possible. It was
costing the ity nothing to use tire sys
tem , and an excellent enanco was being
given to test it. If it was formally tested
the city would sixty days there-
alter have to pay 500 , and
would then bo bound to make
the additional payments as they came
due. The company was giving the city
an excellent chance to try the system ,
and the city was risking nothing'by the
delay in setting a time for a formal test.
The aldermen got to discussing other
matters , but Alderman Wells reminded
them that the meeting was for the special
purpose of cousidcrinir the sewer bids ,
and that being accomplished they should
adjourn.
Adjournment was then taken until
nc\t Monday evening.
The rest of the evening was spent as a
board of equalization in looking over the
assessor's book.
The Deaf and Dumb.
The closing exorcises of the institution
for the deaf and dumb uro always of a
very interesting nature. This year they
occur on June 8. Heretofore the exor
cises have been held in the chapel of the
institution , which is at such a distance
from the center of the city as to make it
inconvenient for many to attend , who
would otherwise gladly have done so.
This year it is proposed to liuvo the exor
cises it the opera house , and to charge
some nominal admittance , enough to
meet the expenses merely. If this can
30 so arranged it will prove a great ac
commodation to the citizens , and they
will gladly avail themselves of the oppor
tunity of witnessing this most interesting
of exhibitions. Many oven in this city
have faint ideas of the work being done
at the institution , of the manner of in
struction , and the wonderful results at
tained. This will civo such a convenient
chance to learn and sco much. It will
also awaken more of a' local interest in
the institution.

Funny men don't always have good
: imcs. Their fun is the death of them.
Yesterday afternoon one of these jokers
stooiHooking at the wonderful display of
fishing tackle at Brackott's , No. 338
Broadway. Ho remarked , "Well ,
Brackett , that's quite a catching dis
play. " No one seemed to hook onto the
the point of the pun , and the poor fellow
looked heartbroKcn as he sauntered
away. The display is indeed a catching
one , without any joking. Brackott un
derstands making displays which will
catch the eyes of passers by , but this
time ho lias tairly outdone himself. Ho
has an endless variety of fishing tackle ,
but the most novel attraction is the
arrangement of lisa poles , there being a
hundred or more in the combination , and
hardly two alike. It looks like a stock of
itself , but * Brackett calls them only
samples of his stock , The BEE man's in-
quisitivenrss led him to ask prices , and
ho found they ranged from 25 cents to
$20. Anybody but a reporter could
easily select one to suit both purse and
fancy , out of this variety , but there being
none less than a quarter , the news-
gatherer concluded to move on.

The foot wns badly lacerated , the horn

A Stock Woman.
At the stockyards yesterday was n
plucky.indcpcndont spcnimon of woman ,
who was en route for Colorado with
sonic stock which slio was taking to her
ranch. She evidently understood her
business thoroughly , and , although tier-
forming duties which are generally left
for stronger and more masculine hands ,
she scorned to lose none of her womanli
ness. Sim was goum through with the
stock , caring for all of their needs , aiul
she attracted much attention as slio o\-
crcised one of the horses in the yards
yesterday.

The Hamblotonian stallion Arbitrator
can bo seen at my stable on Fourth or
Bancroft streets , three doors south of
Hattenhaur's carriage repository. He is
a grandson of Uysdyko's Hainbletonian
on the sire side , and a grandson of Mom-
brine Chief on the dam side , the ac
knowledged principal promictds of speed
and general puruoso horses in America ,
and Arbitrator is no exception to the
ruin. Ho is a horse of great in
dividual merit and speed , and for the
purpose of convincing the breeders of
high bred horses that ho is all that is
claimed of him , I will speed him a ten or
twenty-mile dash on the road to ( JOD
pounds' weight with any stallion owned
in the county. Breeders of high bred
horses will make a note of this and carry
it in their hats , ns the owner of these
holies puts all the money ho has or can
borrow into straight horses , and not into
books , pamphlets and wind , talking
about their cousius'

strange land , but his breeding is cer
tainly all any man could wish for. His
great and positive individuality , his true
and powerful stride , his wonderful con
stitutional powers , and his powerful steel-
convortcd frame work , insure for him a
career that will place him among the
if not the grandest stallions in the west.

Burled Under Ilriclr.
The brick kiln in Winchester's brick
yard gave way on Monday evening and
completely buried an employe named
Kobert Brown. After those about the
yard had extricated him they discovered ,
much to their surprise , that ho had only
received a fractured leg and a few
bruises. Il is estimated that fully 0,000
brick wore above him.

Holy Visitors In a lliisslnn Village.
London Times : From tlio village of
Obodny , in the government of Podolia.in
Russia a peasant , reputed to bo very
wealthy and to have money hoarded in
his house , received a visit lately from
three venerable looking men , dressed in
garments of a somewhat clerical fashion ,
who informed him that they wore Christ
and the apostles Peter and Paul.
The sham Christ said to him : "I have
given you great wealth , but you have
omitted to exorcise charity , so I have
come to reckon witli you. Give mo your
money. " The tcrrilicd peasant fell on
his knee. * , begged for mercy , and gave
over COO silver rubles , declaring it was
all the money ho bad in the house. They
were not satisfied , and sent off his ser
vants to collect money from the neigh
bors who were indebted to him. The re
port of the presence in tlio village of
such holy visitors brought a crowd to the
spot.
But the impostures mistook their mo-
lives , and believed they had come to ap-
orhend them. One of them drew a knife
fi-om under his clothes and attacked a
peasant , whereupon the crowd scorned to
liavo become at once enlightened as to
the true character of the trio , anil , tak-
couragc , overpowered them.

The Burning of Chamborsburfr.
Emma C. Cooke , in The American
Magazine : It would bo impossible for mete
to relate all of the remarkable incidents
which occurred among our friends and
neighbors. A feeble old lady , living op
posite our house , was seated in her arm
chair when a soldier entered and set fire
to a work-basket near her. It was ex
tinguished by her grandson and again
kindled. She mils' ; have perished in the
flames but for the timely arrival of her
son , whoso own bountiful homo was burn
ing. Ho carried her out , and , placing
her in a carriage , got into the shafts and
drew it out of town. Another aged
couple wore detained by the soldiers in
their house until too late to escape by the
street , and they were forced to sit in the
roar yard until the surrounding buildings
were consumed. A minister , intent on
saving his barrel of sermons , hearing of
an invalid lady next door.who was alone ,
abandoned his precious load to the flames
and just had time to rescue her. I've
always considered that little act of self-
denial as good a sermon as any lost in
the barrel.

Puzzling Creature * , Ain't They.
Chicago Tribune : Girls all have a kind
of secret code. You know how it is.
You are introduced to a girl. She in
vites you to call. You call. She invites
you to to a party. You no. She intro
duces you to a whole circle. That whole
circle discusses you , calmly apportions
you to three or four ; they gradually re
duce themselves to one. Then you're
lost. She wearies of you , and you get
kicked out of the circle. Well , all of
those girls have discussed every ono of
your young men friends tlio same way.
This is what a cynical girl told mo. I
don't know of raj' own knowledge , But
talk of trades unions and Knights of
Labor ! Their organizations dwindle into
absolute crudeness when compared with
the united order of marriageable girls.
