Personal Mention ,
The dull.
DTho Club is progressing finely. A
largo number of business men and pro
fessional gentlemen have enrolled them
selves on the list , and the rooms over the
First National bank and the Manhattan
arc being fitted up , The partitions arc
all in now and the plastering and other
work will bo pushed right along. The
front room on Broadway is a spacious
one for a parlor. Back of this is n largo
billiard parlor , then an ollice , with cloak
room , closets , toilet rooms , etc. In the
rear is a kitchen with store room , pantry
and other needfuls. All of these rooms
open into the hallway and into each
other , in the ljlumer building and con
necting with those rooms arc two largo
dining rooms. The rooms will bo fur
nished just as soon as they arc ready and
the furnishings are to bo elegant. It is
the purpose of the Club to have all the
needed facilities for happily entertaining
any visitors who como to the city , as
well as provide for themselves a
pleasant place for social converse.
No residents of the city will bo allowed
the privileges of the rooms except such as
are members , and the members cannot
invite residents of the city to the
rooms , Friends from outside of the
city will bo entertained here , how
ever , and the club will bo made
n practical means of helping the
city as well as a social delight to those
who belong. The enterprise is in the
hands of leading citizens , and the roll of
members already includes a largo num
ber of the representative men. Those
who have not already placed their names
on the roll should do so at once , as the
limit of charter members id about
readied. When this limit is reached , the
price of admission is to bo raised. The
entcrpriso is an assured success , and the
club will soon be occupying its parlors
and be in running order.
Paving Blocks.
At the city clerk's office there is on ex-
hiuition some of the cedar blocks taken
from Oakland avenue. This paving was
laid about three years ago , and it was
supposed that it would last for ton years
It is claimed that in taking up some of it
to lay water pipes the discovery was
made that while the upper surface of the
blocks looked all right , the blocks wcro
badly rotted on the under side. Several
of tiicso blocks are being shown as sam
ples of the rapid decay of wooden pave
ments. Before any more such paving is
laid there should bo some oflicial and
thorough examination to decide whether
the Oakland avenue paving is really go
ing to decay so rapidly as is claimed , or
whether the blocks shown as samples arc
the exception , blocks overlooked by the
inspectors when the paving was laid. If
he fault is with the inspectors this should
o shown up , and if with the paving
tsclf it certainly is a still more important
matter.
The residents and property owners on
fourth street are getting impatient for
lie paviner of that street. The sewer
low on that street , between Broadway
itid Willow avenue , seems to be the chief
lauso for delaying the work. The prop-
: rty owners want the paving , and arc
cady to pay for it , but there seems to bo
omo Hesitancy on the part of the
authorities because ot the sower. This
icwer is so constructed that it requires
cleaning out after every rain , as it fills
with mud. It is claimed that this is duo
o the faulty attempt to run water up
iHl , and that the sewer needs to be re
built. There should bo a practical sewer
before the paving is done , but the prop
erty owners on that street do not see
low the sewer will be any better a year
'rota now , than now. They say that
f a now sewer must bo built then it
should bo built at once , so that the pav
ing can bo dono. They want the paving.
Streets are being paved which do not
"lave ono-third the travel and this , ono of
.ho most important thorofares in the
city , is loft'worso than a country road.
It is proponed by some to have a portion
tion of this strcot paved with brick , so as
to thoroughly test that mode of paving ,
'hero being so much said now-a-davs in
aver of it. If bricK paving should bo
bund to bo practical it would be a great
thine for Council Bluffs , for instead oi
sending so much money out of the city
for paving material , it would bo kept
hero , and the money expended for Coun
cil Bluffs material and labor.

Finding Coal And Iron.
Some pieces of iron ere are being ex
hibited by Justice Schurz , W. A. Myn-
stor , F. J. Day and others , they being
samples of a find about nine miles south
of the city. The matter is being enthusi
astically but quietly discussed , and what
its future revelations may be no ono can
tell definitely yet. The place which has
been attracting so much attention con
sists of about eighty acres , in the edge ol
the bluffs loss than ton miles from the
city. The owner of this land is a black
smith , and he has had a little forgo foi
some time. There is quite a romantic
sort of a story about the way ho has been
supplying his forgo with coal. A shorl
distance from the forge , in the side of the
bluffs , is bis coal cellar. It is one whicl
nature has filled. There ho a long time
since discovered a little coal cropping on
of the surface , and he has boon dig
ging away at this , as his forg <
needed a supply , and has been following
up the vein until he has dug quite a dis
tauco into the bluff. The vom is n veri
light ono and not worth working excep
for the limited needs of his little forgo
The presence of coal there has beci
known for some time , but it has not bcoi
supposed that it existed in sutllcion
quantities to pay to work.
Lately a now revelation is made. It i
found that the bluff is full of a rooky
lava-looking formation , which has ox
cticd attention. Some of it bore ovi
deuce of being full of iron , and on spec
miens being scut away for analysis it ap
pears that it is OS per cent iron. Tli
matter is being looked into more care
fully , for there is a belief that there i
enough iron to pay to wore , and if so , i
would prove a great enterprise indeed
The supposed iron ere is plenteous am
the assays thus far show it to be rich.
It is thought there are larger veins o
coal than the one being used for the littl
forgo. The nature of those can only b
determined by future development
From the examination thus far made i
appears that below the supposed iron or
there is a strata of limestone , and bolo >
that is supposed to be the other veins c
coal , it there is any coal at all. Tlios
who have been conversant with the fact !
are quite confident that there is a goo
show for both coal and iron to be dove
oped there. The pieces of ere which ar
exhibited indicate that the discovery !
more than more talk , and that the hope
of what may bo developed are more tha
more day dreams.The grounds are t
be examined carefully , and doubtless
some money will bo expended bv the
owner In developing them sufficiently to
satisfy him and the public concerning
the value of the llndi
Received New Diplomat ) .
The gradufling exercises of the Coun
cil Bluffs high school are always events
of great interest , and the interest seems
increasing year by year. The class grad
uated this year consists of an even dozen
and only ono gentleman among the
twelve , Emll Schurz , son of of Justice N.
Scburz. Mr. Schurz has acquitted
himself nobly in his studies ,
and last evening his graduat
ing oration on "Life" showed that his
studies had not been in vain. The 5fouiig
ladies of the class gave orations on a va
riety of topics , the names and topics
bning as follows :
Miss Mary Munson "Hidden Forces. "
Miss May Kilmore "Heroes , Past and
Present. "
Miss Josie Clausen "Rlso and Fail.1'
Miss Lottie Pile "Tho Golden Ago. "
Miss Iva Hatteuhuner "Xantippo. "
Miss Nannie llardin "Mint , Arise
and Cummin. "
Mies Ada Ainsworth "Tho Religion of
Shakespeare. "
Miss Dora Glass "Lovo of the Beauti
ful. "
Miss Mira Briggs "American Litera
ture. "
Miss Mary Finloy "Woman. "
Miss Clara Southwell "Tongues. "
Miss Munson had the honor of the
salutatory , and Miss Southwell of the
valedictory ,
Rev. Dr. Phclps offered the opening in
vocation.
The music of the evening was varied ,
and was given by the 1'ifth regiment
band , which is so rapidly winning popu
larity.
Master Willie Murphy gave a very
pleasing cornet solo , Prof. Lipfert ac
companying on the piano. This was
Master Murphy's first appearance in
public , and his debut was a successful
one , this audience giving him enthusiastic
applause.
The stage was very prettily sot in rep-
rcscnt..tion of a grove , and made more
bowery by the graceful but not elabor.ito
decorations of vines and flowers. The
younc ladies were all dressed in white
with flowers for ornaments.
The audience was one of the largest
ever gathered in the opera house. Every
seat was taken and standing room was
well occupied , although the programme
was necessarily a long one. The orations
had in addition to other merits the rare
one of brevity. The class acquitted itself
in a manner to reflect credit upon the
educational system of the city. Individ
ually each was rewarded bv numerous
bouquets and baskets of flowers besides a
generous applause from the audience.
To Bo Here To-Day.
The state railway commissioners are
to arrive on this morning's train to con
sider the dillicultios which have arisen
between the Manawa motor railway and
the several railway companies whoso
tracks are to bo crossed by the motor lino.
It is hoped and believed that matters can
bo so arranged that no great delay will be
caused in the construction of the motor
lino.
