brilliant scene. The spacious lawn was

lawn party , from the fact of the national
colors being prominent in all the decora

lienvo Absinthe Alone.
Merchant Traveler : It is stated that
the habit of drinking abaintho is. more
common to-day in this country than it
over was before. Of its evil ellucis ono
writer says : "Tho poor wretches given
up to absinthe drinking slitter from a ptv
ouiiar train of nervous symptoms , the
most prominent of which is epilepsy of a
remarkably severe character. 1'ho lusl
moments of the absinthe drinker arc
truly horrible. Absinthe , besides alco
hol , contains several ethereal oils , ol
which the most important is the oil ol
wormwood. It has been often observed
that the use of this beverage results in
disorders wldqly differing from those
caused by nlconol alnno , and the oil ol
Wormwood has produced onima stotanic
Convulsions similar in form to the option
tic form of convulsion ) ) which affect ab
lathe drinkers. "

Court on Monday.
Next Monday Judge Carson is to hold
court mainly to consider tlie saloon eases
which have so long bcon in contest.
There nro some injunctions asked ( or ,
and some contempt proceedings. Now
evidence has been gained and there is no
little curiosity to see the new faces on the
witness stand , and hear tlicso informers
ross'oxamined. The decision of the
ourt will bo watched for eagerly , for in
lie contempt proceedings the penalty is
cavy , consisting of ? . " > 00 fine and six
months imprisonment , and there seems
o way for dodging the penalty , if the
uses are made to stick.
Snatched On Suspicion.
The police have been watching for two
r throe days two colored men who wore
ookcd upon as suspicious fellows. They
cro prowling about at all hours of the
ight looking into buildings , batiks and
tores , and acting as it bent on n break.
) Hiccr Thomas , of the merchants'police ,
nd Ofliccr Stevens , of the city force , fol-
owcd them about Thursday night until
ntisllcd that il was bust to take them in.
Vhon the arrest was attempted they
made an cllbrt to run. . Ono took in
one direction , the other in the opposite ,
'ho ollicors lired at them , but only suc-
ei'ded in capturing ono. Ho is recog-
' ' as "Dudo" Henderson , who has
id quite a career nt Des Moincs , and
vho is not altogether a stranger here.
'Ie ' was yesterday sentenced to thirty
lays in jail on the general charge of vag-
ancy.
Happy Children.
Yesterday the little folks of the Homo
f the Friendless were given an enjoyable
rip to Lake Manawa. Express and 'bus
men generously gave the little ones a free
ido , and others contributed to their cn-
ioyraent , so that they had a free ride ,
n free bath , frco ice cream and a jolly
imo. The little ones were as merry as
iould be , i nd as they started off for their
.lay's recreation they went singing
hrough the streets. Most of the inmates
'f ' the homo have few such days of joy ,
, nd the occasion was heartily appreciated
by them. The children are said to bo
better cared for than when the invcstiga-
' 1911 of the institution showed up such a
tartling state of affairs. That invostiga-
ion has resulted in some changes for the
better that arc known. The policy of
refusing to allow good families to adopt
children from the homo has been aban
doned. The appearance of the children ,
at least , indicates that they are getting
better food and more of it , ami bettor
care than at the time of the investigation.
Brief ninzc.
Yesterday noon a gasoline stove blazed
up in the homo of C. W. Hunt , corner of
Pierce and Grace streets. The stove had
been leaking a little , and Mrs. Hunt had
lust filled the gasoline tank. As she
.ightcd the ( ire it blazed up fiercely. In
attempting to put it out ono of her hands
was badly burned. A lire alarm was
turned in , but the blaze was over before
the arrival of the department. The
damage to the house was light.
Some Advice.
One of the best ways to help build up
Council Bluffs is to give employment to
workingmen , and then whun the work is
done pay their wages. Those who try to
shield and bolster up enterprise1) at the
expense of those who earn their bread by
the sweat of the brow , are equally re
sponsible with those who refuse to pay
those who have worked for them. It is
all easy enough to shout and to scold.
One instance is sullicicnt. A laboring
man lives in a house hero owned by an
Omaha man. The agent of the house is
an attorney here. The workingman is
honest and industrious. He worked hard
and faithfully , and calculated on the $28
duo him , to pay the $14 rent , and have
some money left with which to buy some
necessaries for his family. Now that ho
has earned the money ho cannot get it.
The debt is not disputed , but the man
who employed him says ho cannot pay
him. The workingman tins no money
with which to go to law , and there are
such larger claims that his would bo
swallowed up. The Omaha landlord
demi > nds his monoy. and urges his
agent in Council Blufls to force the col
lection. The poor fellow knows not
what to do. Ho cannot afford to lose $28
and his landlord docs not seem willing to
wait until ho can earn another $33.
These men , with plenty of money in their
pockets , strut about and tell the poor
fellow to keep still and let it go it is for
the good of the city , and the enterprise
must bo encouraged. Those who are
shouting so hard should go down in Ihcir
pockets and pay off tlieso workingmen.
All enterprises giving honest employ
ment to labor should bo encourage pro
vided the workingnion are paid for their
workIt is no benefit to the workingman -
man to bo given employment if he is to
bo knpt out of his pay. Work to build
up Council Bluffs , but work to build it up
on the sure foundation of prompt pay
for honest work.

Wecdlnic Out "Black fibcep. "
A captain in the regular army says in
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat : r'Tho
army was full of black sheep just uftcr
the war , and for ten years there was n
constant weeding out of the drunkards
and gamblers. The army is a garden of
paradise now comuared to its condition
ten years preceding and ten years fol
lowing the war , and the officers who
seem to make it a part of their duties to
bo drunk arc very few. Prior to the war
the army was located on the frontier , and
the mon spent their lives in the foris fur
away from civilization. To drink ,
to gamble and debauch wore
the results of thcso men's en
deavors to undurj their lonely existence.
1 knew more than one commanding olli-
cor who debauched the character of every
young man under him by making it a
sort of matter of reproach to any otllccr
in the fort not to play cards or carouse
with hhi ) . Habits thus formed were con
tinued and impregnated the service.
After the war the army was recruited by
mon who had only practical experience ,
having como from volunteer companies.
To them came the tradition of tinti-bol-
lum days , the tradition that to be an offi
cer in the United States army ono had to
bo a jolly dog. The thing became fear
ful and soon at headquarters it was de
termined to stop the demoralization.
What was known as the Bonzino Court of
Inquiry waa formed , whoso objects
were to inquire into the antecedents
and character of ollicurs. No man was
called before it who had not been known
as ono of the offenders , and therefore to
bo summoned meant dismissal. Many
resigned rather than appear , but there
w&s little difference between that and
dismissal. Very few men in the army
resign without good cause ; as Ben Butler -
ler lias expressed it , "Few die and none
resign willingly. " Hence up to live
years ago it was pretty well understood
what resigning meant. Now the old cle
ment has been generally weeded out , and
young otllccrs can go into the army with
out having to become rakos. With the
advance of civilisation there is practic
ally no frontier and none of the reasons
for the old regime.
PUNCH PHOTOGRAPHS.
A System to Wliloh Tourists Strongly
Object.
San Francisco Chronicle : When the
tourist from the cast gets as far on his
way to California as the Missouri river ,
his regular round-trip excursion ticket is
"taken up" and another ticket , reading
from his original point of departure to
this city and return , is given to him in
exchange. This is a now method ,
adopted by all the overland lines except
the Atchlson. for the laudable purpose of
preventing the scalping of tickets In this
city. But while it serves this end , it is
productive of a greater evil than that
which it is intended to overcome. It
ubjects the traveler to great inconvcm-
nee , gives rise to disputes between him-
elf and the ticket agents , and often
troves an expensive matter for the pus-
icnger , resulting in delays as well as an-
toying , and what some travelers consider
mpcrtincnt inquiries , and make the re-
urn passage anything but plain
lulling. Much complaint has
been made in consequence of the
'ntroduction of tins system. The
rouble all arises from the fact that the
ickct given at the Missouri river by the
vcrland agents contains what is called
"punch * photograph" of the holder.
This is supposed to bo a complete dc-
crlption of the passenger. Along the
margin of the ticket is printed in a
traight column the following words , in
mall , black typo :
Male Female ,
Hllin Medium Stout.
Young Mldillp-nml Eldcrlj.
KYK Liirht Dnrk.
lUii-Lliht-lnrk.
UKAHU Mustache Chin Side None.
The passenger is photographed on the
ickct bearing his signature by punching
out all the words that arc not descriptive
of him. If for a male.the word "fomale"
"s cut out by the punch ; if ho is slim , the
, vords "medium" and "stout" are
Hinchecl ; if his eyes are light , the word
'dark" is stricken out ; and if lie wears
no beard , the word "none" is loft stand-
"ng , while "mustache. " "chin" and
'side" are punched. Now.it is readily
seen how a train agent passing hui-
riedly through a crowded car is likely to
make errors in describing his passengers
on their tickets , and so far from being a
' 'photograph" of the holder , the mar
ginal sketch often becomes n rank
saricattiro. Even when the punch mark
raithfully portray the features and figure
.ho female passenger cannot always pre
serve her good temper on looking at the
picture drawn for her. A well developed
lady of uncertain age is not likely to con
sider it a compliment to bo labeled in
cold type as "stout and elderly. " That ,
liowever , is nothing to the treatment ro-
icivcd by a Boston girl on her way to
Jaliforma who was "photographed" as
i "female" of medium build , middle-
aged , dark eyes and hair , with a side-
beard. This description , while contain-
'ng evidence of careless , free hand por-
; raiture is not , however , as bad as that
of an olive complexioned young lady
who was punched as an elderly llmalc , "
slim and with light eyes and hair and u
chin beard. Tourist passengers on the
overland trains often derive great
amusement from a comparison of notes ,
or , rather , of tickets , but their fun is
turned to disgust when they are told that
they cannot secure return passage on
the tickets when they have been wrongly
portrayed by the train agent. They find
none of the easy going ways of the Mis
souri river railroaders in the rigid , ruld-
hampercd agents of this city. When ,
after "doing" the Golden state they desire -
sire to take passage homeward
on the portion of their ticket
still remaining unused , and think
ing that the irregularities in
their personal description will be over
looked as a little joke of the train agent ,
they go to the Central Pacific ofllco to
conform with the red-tape rule of sign
ing their nani'is and haying their tickets
stamped , they are surprised to find them
selves hauled up with a round turn , and
put to the alternative of remaining in
the city or buying another ticket to their
destination , thus paying twice for their
passage. Before the ticket is stamped
and thus made good for .the return trip ,
the agent must satisfy himself that the
description and signature thereon tally
precisely with that of the original holder.
If thcro is only a trilling discrepancy the
passenger , by making an extra ten-block
passenger round-trip tour to Fourth and
Townsend stronts , can sometimes make
good his claim to being the original
holder of the ticket. In any event , there
is delay and annoyance , for no fault of
the passenger , but in order that the arbi
trary rules of the Southern Pacific com
pany may bo rigidly enforced. Instances
of the injustice of the now system
are not wanting , and could bo pub
lished by the column. One of recent oc
currence was that of a young eastern
lady who was rather slim when her
punch photograph was taken , out a
oriel sojourn in California brought her
under the classification of "stout. "
Being classed as slim on her ticket she
could not , without much ditlicultv , ob
tain return passage. The signature ex
perts squinted at her handwriting
through the microscope , and made her
stand off to bo gazed at by the figure ex
perts. Although greatly annoyed and ,
in fact , insulted by this treatment , the
young lady bore the ordeal patiently and
after an hour of dilly-dallying and sub
jecting the ticket and its holder to all
sorts of tests , the agents finally con
cluded to grant the application for re
turn passage , paid for two months be-
forcr. A queer case was that of a gentle
man and his wife whose descriptions had
become transposed by the carelessness
of the train agent and who had to dance
attendance on the Fourth and Townsend
street officials in order to have the mat
ter sot right , thereby losing their tram
and having to remain over another day.
Eastern visitors who are not used to this
sort of experience do not know exactly
what to make of it , and they ask : "what
kind of people are these California people
ple , anyway , and whom do they get their
ideas of the courtesy duo to travellers on
their lines ? "

A Great Singer.
London Musical World : In ono of the
many attractive environs of London
Mmo. Jenny Lind Goldschmidt lives to
day , passing her old ago in a most peace
fill , happy manner. She is in her UOtt
year , but is still youthful in feeling am'
intensely interested in every miisica
event. Among the greatest of the achieve
ments witnessed by thn people of Vienna
was that accomplished by herself , anil it
must bo a source of great happiness to
her to recall her triumph in the Austrian
capital. To-day she passes quietly in
and out of her homo , unnoticed except
by these who know her worth as a friend
and neighbor , and greet her with re
spectful deference. Forty years ago
every civilized country in the world know
of her wonderful powers and was ready
to do her honingo. She could not pass
from her hotel door without encounter
ing crowds , who would stand for hours
to see her. Probably no woman upon
the stagti ever hold precisely her position.
There may have been quite as much curi
osity to see other famous singers , and
crowds have followed them , but thn people
ple of two worlds respected Jenny Lind ,
and the old feeling has not died out. She
is still the jrrcat artist , and no ono has
dethroned tier in the hearts and minds of
those \v ho heard her yoara ago.
