Smith , of Council Rinds , and Miss Stella May Shlnn , of Marion , la. , were married by Elder Ira J. HanKins at Des Moincs on the 18th hist. They ar rived in this city that same evening and expect to remain hero about a week with his brother , N. U. Smith , when the newly wedded couple will go to northern Iowa. Mr. William H. Maxfiold and Katie M. Nichols were united in marriage at the residence of the bride's parents , Green- dale , Council Ulull't ) , at 8 o'clock Wednes day evening , Juno 15. A sumptuous repast was spread , after which the evening was spent in delightful social converse. The couple were born and raised in Council liliilFs , and willHtill make this their home. There was a largo gathering of relatives and friends both from the cily and from a distance. The bride was the recipient of numerous presents. The Omaha Herald man gets into trouble by writing up a concert before- liand. In regard to the "Omaha Night" at St. Paul's church hero , he says : "I. M. Trcynor , the Mcrkel sisters anil others were highly successful in their roles , receiving as many recalls as they wanted , and more , too , considering the high tem perature and the weather. " If the Misses Mcrkcl and Mr. Trcynor had taken part in the concert , the encores would doubt less have been there.too , but they neither sang , nor were called back. The "Deestrik Skulo" was lately given two nights in Woodbine , by ono of the churches there. As there was a great de mand oven for standing room the soci ety must have made a Itnanclal success. The entertainment originated in Council UI nil's and since its production hero thn Congregational church folks received so many letters of Inquiry concerning it that it was decided to publish the outline - line in pamphlet form for the guidance of other churches desiring to get tip such an entertainment. Those pamphlets are being sold at $1 oacb , and orders have come in from all parts of the country. The other day a church in Maine sent for It. It is taking wonderfully.

Thu HII : : lins several times called atten tion to the new county jail niut tlio ilis- satisfaction which tins been felt concern- hiK it. It scorned to be a pretty irood Idea to have the cull rooms in the form of si cylinder , revolving easily , so that ono cnlrunuu might answer for all the cells. Theory and practice prove to vary. Whatever the theory may have been , it is now pretty well demonstrated that the revolving part of the jnil is bordering upon a falltiro. Yesterday two men , by applying their utmost muscular ability , succeeded in turning the great cylinder so that the prisoners i-ould bo let out into the corridors. The ofllcors hardly dared to lock the men up again in the cells lest they could not be revolved out again. It seems that the revolving part has been growing worse and worst ) , the cogs slipping and sticking and the cylin der turning harder and harder. It would be a startling situation if the men should bo in the cells when the great cylinder stops never to go again , for it would bo no little trouble to get them out of this huge bird cage with no door for exit. It seems that the only chance now remain ing is for the manufacturers to come on hero and lix the jail so that it will swing around the circle. Perhaps they can do this , but if not , what will the county deV The situation is getting borious and some change will have to bo made at onco. The troubles have been growing worse and worse , until now it is abso lutely necessary that a radical change bo made so that the troubles will be obvi ated , or the rotary plan abandoned. A hull In Ijlqttor. There will be a cessation of legal sparring over the liquor cases. Yester day morning Judge Carson decided to continue the hearing of the injunction cases until July 25. This will suit the sa loon men , and is looked upon by them as u victory. The cause of delay is the dif ficulty in getting the two chief witnesses out of jail in Omaha , and bringing them to this side , the defendants insisting that they should have a rightto cross examine these men concerning the facts set forth in their affidavits. There seems no im mediate prospect of thcso men being released leased , and so the cases have gone over until the date named. This will permit the judge to attend the Avoca term of court , and clear up some other business which needs looking after. Two cases were disposed of yesterday by Judge Carson refusing to issue the temporary writs of injunction asked for. One of thcso was the case against Mr. "litter , who was charged with selling "rinks , when , as is well known , ho has ot been in tlio saloon business at all. 'ho other was the case of Ncls Smith , the lourt holding that the evidence was not ullicicnt. This breathing spell will bo appreciated V the attorneys on both sides. During : ho past few days of wrangling Jacob Sims lias been physically unable to appear n court , and the prosecution has de ended on Air.ink , who is a young law- or only a year out of the school , and ivhilo ho may develop into u good lawyer , 10 lacks experience , nud it has been an ncqnal warfare to pit him against the .blest and oldest members of the bar lore. Mr. Sims will bo able to take hold if the cases anew , and as ho has both ex perience and ability , he will doubtless make a better light against such able at- .ornnys , as Mr. llaldene , Colonel Sapp , N. M. 1'usoyV. . A. Mynster and others. Kven ho , with the state law on his side , ivill find that ho has no easy task. A Blind IMniilst. There is now stopping in the city , tha guest of Dr. Richards , on Myustcr street , young man , or rather a boy , who is a musical wonder. Ilis name is G. S. loush , and his homo is near Ft. Wayne. lo is but nineteen years of age , and has been blind since the ago of live years. Ho has been thoroughly educated at the nstitution in Indiana , and is especially prolicicnt in music. Itcsidcs a musical education , ho is gifted with great natural endowments , which have developed rap- , dly for ono of his ago. Since ho has been in the city a number of citizens and judges of music have had the privilege of hearing him play on the piano , and they have been enthusiastic in their praise. Yesterday the BEE representative , with others , wore at Dr. Richards' resi dence , and listened to him. To say that his performance is wonderful but faintly expresses it. The most difficult and classical music is in his repertoire , and ho executes thcso with the greatest case , and with marvelous expression. Ho seems to bring out of a piano all the music there is in it. All that is needed is for one to play a piece , no matter how difficult , or to read the notes to him , and ho at once catches it , his memory holds fast to every note , and ho plays it at onco. Last week fourteen pagcsof the mostdiflicult music were thus read to him , and that very day ho played it accurately and with an expression which showed that he had already fami liarized himself with it. Ho has thus stored away in his memory , to guide his fingers in their blind but rapid running over the keyboard , three score or more of the great master productions. Yes terday to please those who called upon him ho played Li.s/.t's transcription of Tanuhauscrs march , executing it won- dorfullv well. Such is out -a sample of the class of compositions with which ho is familiar. There has been some dcsiro expressed hero to have arrangements made for him to appear in concert , before - fore ho loaves the city. Ho has very limited means , and is very desirous of securing enough to enable him lo further his studies in Europe , ami if n benefit concert could bo arranged , it would doubtless prove an enjoyable ono to those who attended , while it would give needed assistance to a worthy , struggling young man whoso gifts promise ere long to make his name a familiar ono in at' musical circles.

Also the fine hotel at Lake Munawa.

The First Mississippi Uivcr Steamboat Pioneer Press : An Anoka man has come out with a correction of the state ment that the lirst steamboat lloatcd on the Mississippi above St. Anthony's Falls was owned by Z. E. B. Nash. Iho Gov ernor Ramsey , built in 1810 and on the water in 1850 , ho claims was the first. It was constructed by a Maine man known s "One-Eyed Smiley , " unit the boiler .nd engines came from Hanger , Mo. , via .ho ocean , New Orleans and the Missia- lippi. It was hauled from St. Paul to St. Anthony by a twelve-ox team. The boat's Irst passengers were a delegation of Jhippcwas , who hud been attending a onncil at Fort Snelling. This chronicler of river history goes on , o note that Governor Ramsey presented .he boat with a tlag. She did good ser vice for three years and was succeeded by the H. M. Rico , a side-wheeler. The machinery of the Governor Ramsey was then sent to do duty on a boat that was run on the Red River of the North. That 'boating" was profitable in those days : annot be doubted when it is claimed hat the Governor Ramsey paid for itself n the first three months of its existence. SPECIAL NOTICES. ItTOTIOE.
