THE FIRST CONTEMPT CASE ,
It is Decided in Favor of the Property

llcnvj Petition For Light *
Chats With Citizens.
Brown Not In Contempt.
Yesterday morning Judge Carson pro
ceeded to clean out his pigeon holes , and
prepare for the coming of JuUgc Decmer ,
who will preside tit the next term of the
district court here. The most important
decision which he rendered was in the
case of Mr. George D. Brown , u well-
known citizen , owner of the St. Louis
house. It was charged that Mr. Brown
had been guilty of contempt of court ,
because the injunction restraining the
owner of the property , and the tenant ,
Doerlllnger , from allowing liquors to bo
sold on the premises , had been violated.
Judge Carson ycsterdav discharged Mr.
Brown , holding that there was no suf
ficient showing that the sales
of liquor had been by his consent. The
evidence showed that when the injunc
tion was issued he warned the occupants
of the building not to violate it and re
ceived assurances that the writ would bo
obeyed and that nothing would be sold.
It seemed that he could do nothing moro
than this , as ho had leased the building
for legitimate uses and could not force
the occupants out. Neither could he be
expected to stand with a club and keep
them from violating the writ. This being
the lirst case of the kind tried ITere , the
result has been watched for with eager
ness. A motion was made to
have the injunction , which was
issued by Judge Thornell , done
away with , but Judge Carson- over
ruled this , and the injunction stands.
Another case decided was that of
Beebo vs. the Equitable Insurance com
pany , of Waterloo , la. This was the old
case in which Randall , the agent of the
company , fitted up an ollico hero , and
cut a wide swath , ordering furniture
and goods and then shipping out , leaving
the creditors unsatisfied. The company
claimed that Randall had no authority
for contracting any such bills. In the
first triaL a judgment was rendered in
favor of fro cbc , but a now trial was ob
tained , and now Judge Carson decides
in favor of the company. An appeal
will be taken to the supreme court again.
A few cases of smaller public interest
were disposed of.
The now term , with Judge Dcoraer
presiding , opens on the 80th.
Among the Sinners.
The cool weather yesterday morning
had its effect upon Police Judge Ayles-
worth ,
He was at his accustomed place bright
and early.
As usual ho lighted ono of his choice
brand of cigars.
He evidently believes the perfume of
the cigar preferable to that of the sub
jects before him.
However this may be , the judge is al
ways in good humor when he has a cigar
lighted.
Whether this particular cigar ho was
enjoying braced him up , or the weather ,
the reporter present had no method of
discovering.
But ono tiling is certain , ho didn't
"monkey" any.
linsiness moved and so did those
brought before his honor.
"L. A. Brown , charged with being
drunk , " said City Marshall Guanclla.
"Stop for ward a little closer , "remarked
his honor. "What do you plead ; guilty
or not guilty ? "
"Guilty , " replied Brown.
"Did you have a ride in the patrol
wagon ? " was the question put to him.
"Yes sir. "
"Well , that will bo fifty cents more ,
making your line 'eight ton' " concluded
the judge.
J. B. Mitchell was allowed to skip , if
he'd run for the train to go to DCS
Moincs , where ho had a sick wifo. The
judge thinking she needed the money that
otherwise would go into the city's iunds.
on account of her husband being found
drunk and asleep.
E. W. McCurdy , n drunk , received
$7.00 line , as quick as ho could say ho was
guilty.
Louis Welch , drunk ; L. Davis , F. Peter
son and C. Allison , for disturbance of the
.icaco . , were hold for hearing later in the
day.
Jake Shoup had been on ono of his
periodicals , or at least , was charged with
disturbance of the peace.
He didn't think it right for him to
plead guilty , but .finally concluded , for
reasons best known to himself , that ho
\\ould.
A.s an extra pull was given on the
cigai the judge remarked , ' 'If ' you people
insist on riding in the patrol wagon ,
you'll have to pay for it.
"That riJp will cost you 50 cents extra ,
Shoup , making the entire fine and costs
$10.10.
"Can you pay it ? "
Shoup concluded to leave his gold
watch as security.
After which the judge breathed casioi
and began a pleasant chat with outsid
ers.
ers.All the business having been completed
in as short time as It takes to toll it.
AFTEIIKOON SEhSION.
It wis : 3:30 : o'clock when the afternoon
session began.
Since morning the police had ar
rested George Roper , who was placet
on trial with the other young men , Peter
son , Allison , Davis and Webster , til
charged with disturbing the peace.
Each prisoner was given plenty ol
chauco to state his side ol the case aftei
suvoral of the police had testified.
The testimony went to show that sov >
cral young men , all under nineteen yean
of ago , started out at their usual place o :
meeting , a suloou , and , after plnyiiu
cards and billiards , started for a round'
up of "Rotten Row" after midnight. Ro
per was taken in charge by the police
but was allowed to go homo on a sucrei
promise. He did not seek his cot unti
after a racket near "Nigger Texas" divi
about 8 o'clock.
"In regard to billiard and drinking sa
loons , the ordinances arc vary seriou
about allowing young men ot your agi
even inside the places , " said the judge
"and each of you are fined f5 and costs. '
The case of A. L. Freeze , charged will
vagrancy , was dismissed , there being m
witnesses against him present.
Mrs. Shea , charged with being drunl
yesterday morning , was brought befor
Ills honor. Ho requested her to rcmaii
until she felt "stronger" and was betto
able to walk homo. "Oh , judge , lot in
go home. " she pleaded. "Ah , now , Mi
Aylesworth , you're a nice man , so yoi
are , and the likes of you should not holt
me hero. I would never bo half so wil
as I am now if you'd hold mo longer. '
But slit ) went up stairs in the female dc

A Mntionlc Gift.
T. H. Marvin , of Cedar Rapids , gran
secretary , A. F. and A. M. of Iowa , wh
delivered the address on the ocoasion o
the laying of the oorncr-Btono of the Mr
sonio temple in this city , has presentee
through Brother J. B. Atkins , to the tw
lodges in Council Bluffs a beautiful set c
j unoral symbols , coutlstiog of a master
gavel nnd senior and junior warden's
columns. The master's pavel is ot ivory ,
around which is n wreath ot nocacla
carved in relief. The wardens' columns
are ebonv and gold , fluted , surmounted
by carved wreaths , and boar a silver
plate appropriately inscribed , ono of
them being n broken column faithfully
copied from the Masonic chart. The
symbols are eminently appropriate for
use on funeral occasions and will add to
the impressivoncss of such occasions.
The lodges are greatly pleased by this
evidence of the fraternal regard of the
grand secretary , and appointed a joint
committee , who drafted and forwarded
to Brother Parvln the following resolu
tions :
Whereas , Brother T. S. Parvln , priuid sec
retary of Inwa , tins presented to UlutT Cltv
Lodge No. 71 , and Kxcelslor Koiltro No. 259

master's uavel ot handsomely carved Ivory ,
and t\\o beaut it til columns for tlie veterans ,
for use on funernl occasions ,
Kesolvcd , That we hereby express to our
worthy brother our high appreciation , not
only of these eleennt symbols , but of the
warm fraternal feeling that piompted the
gift , and assure him that wo will ever cher
ish them , not for tbelr Intrinsic vnluo nlone ,
but as a reminder of the plcasantand prollta-
blo hours spent In brotherly Intercourse here ,
nnd ns a reminder that we should BO meet ,
act and part that we may all bo In order
when the Giand Master of the universe shall
call up the crnnd ledge above.
Kesolved , That a copy of these resolutions
bo spread upon the minutes ot our lodges ,
and that a copy of the same , properly en
dorsed , bo tnrwnrded to our worthy brother ,
( Irand Secretary T. S. Parvln , at Cedar
Rapids.
A Bonp Factory.
Edward Deer , a soap manufacturer of
Creston , was in the city yesterday visit
ing C. J. Colby and looking over this city
with a view to the removal of his factory
to this city. He has to ship tallow , etc. ,
from South Omaha to Creston , and thinks
the location here preferable to the
present one ; also for the reason that ho
lias quite a demand for his goods in this
city and Omaha.
Prnylng For Light.
A petition is being circulated and re
ceiving many signatures of property
owners , in favor of the adoption of elec
tric lights for street purposes. The
lights placed upon the tower of the new
court house have demonstrated that moro
light can be had in that part of the city
by this arrangement than by many gas
lights on ordinary post * . Those who
have observed the differcnco and investi
gated the matter seem enthusiastic , and
they are urging the council to moke some
contract by which this system of lighting
can be secured. The electric light com
pany has presented a score of
different propositions , from which it
seems that the council can select
one or moro , which would bo in keeping
with the citv's finances , and which would
give the citfcons the needed relief from
darkness. There seems no doubt but
that the petition will have such a quan
tity and quality of names attached us to
convince the council that the property
owners , who will have to foot the bills ,
want the electric light given a chance.
The gas company is doing its best to se
cure a new contract from the city , and it
is understood that some of the aldermen ,
are rather inclined to favor the gas com
pany for reasons best known to them
selves. The petition may show thorn how
the citizens feel in regard to having the
streets well lighted.
The Club Hootng.
The work on the now club ropnis has
progressed as far as it can until the ar
rival of a mantel , which has been or
dered in the oast. As soon as this ar
rives it will bo put in place , the decora
tions of the wall about it will bo finished
in a few hours and then the rooms will
bo ready * for the furniture. Mr. Else-
man , of the executive committee , and
who has been vorv active in the work of
fitting up the rooms , is expected to re
turn from the cast to-morrow. Some of
the furnishings have been selected by
him in the eastern markets , iuut soon
after his arrival homo the rooms will bo
ready for occupancy. The club will start
in its season about the 1st of September ,
and the rooms will bo as elegant as any
city of this size can show , cither cast or
west.
CHATTY C1T1KI3NS.
ONE OF MANY.
"I hate to sco any moro money spent
on these old city buildings , " remarked a
Fourth ward property owner yesterday.
"I know there are a good many taxpay
ers who feel just as I do. Instead of
spending more money in this way the
city ought to go right ahead nnd build a
regular city hall. Let them buy right
through to Main street and get up a good
building , to cost $50,000 or so at leastand
have nil the city ollices together. The
city is largo enough to 1myo a decent sort
of n city building , and it is foolishness to
keep spending money on a lot of little
two-story things. "
TIIH MISbINO 110 < ltl > OF TltADE.
"I see the HKE is trying to find out
what has become of the board of trade.
You know , awhile ago , there was a great
hurrah about reorganizing it. Well , it
was reorganized and newolHccrs-elected ,
and all of us old fellows wcro kicked out.
Have you heard of it since ? The old
board of trade was slow enough , and it
was hard work to get a quorum out. but
wo used to get ono occasionally , and we
did manage to secure a number of valu
able enterprises and improvements. Since
the reorganization what has the now
force done ? "
SEt.F-SUItUF.NI > EUr.D CONFIDENCE MAN.
"I had a follow come to 11:0 : not loner
ago , " baid the city marshal , "who seemed
very penitent , and who said he was a de
serter from the regular army. Ho seemed
so honest about the matter that I took
him in charge , until I could write to the
address he gave mo , for he frankly told
mo the company and the regiment ho be.
longed to , and where he supposed they
were then. 1 saw the follow had been
on a terrible spree , and didn't biispect
anything wrong about his story. After
some days I got replies that they didn't
know anything about such a man. Ho
then admitted that he had been lying
about it , but the reabon he did
so was that ho had got
to drinking so heavy that ho made up his
mind that the only way to sober up waste
to got into some place whore ho couldn't
have a drink. So he surrendered
himself as a deserter and was locked up.
1 was hot when I found out what trouble
1 had been to for nothing. I had bi'on
sort of calculating on the $30 reward that
is paid for deserters. It made mo mail
for a little , but when I came to think It
over I concluded to help the fellow. 1
got him a job at the transfer and ho
kept right at work as steady as a clock
for some time. 1 see now that ho has
gone I don't know whore but I sup
pose he has got aturtcd on another spree
aud pulled out. "
A HOPEFUL LIQUOR DEALF.lt.
A wholesale liquor dealer remarks : "I
made up my mind that there was not
going to bo any change In the prohibi
tion law. 1 was pretty well fixed In that
belief , but lately I have changed my
mind. I rather thin now that there will
bo a change this very winter. I find that
at Uea Moincs there Is a sort of split , and
that several hundred republicans even
are joining In a demand for a change.
The law touches the pocketbooks and
the property of everybody there , and
some ot them are squirming as bad as ii
they were in the business. In Page and
in Adams county 1 tind there Is a
disposition on the part of republican ! ) tq
secure some representatives who
favor n change. I've been watching
things very elosey | , for it means dollars
and a good many of them to me , but Pvo
changed my mind , and I really believe
that tnerc will be. a change made in the
law this winter. I only make the predic
tion for what it is worth , which may not
bo much , but I really believe that thcro
will bo enough republicans acting with
the democrats to change the law. That
is ono reason why I am not making the
business changus which I planned a
short time ago , when I thought differ-
cutly.1 „
The Advantage'of Using Ilcckninn's
Patent Looking Bracket On Fence
anil Hailing.
Thcro are few inventions that com
mend themselves so strongly to the prac
tical man as Beckman's Locking Urncket
for fences and railings. With it there
can be no rottlug of joints. Any panel
can bo'readily taken out and and firmly
replaced without damage. For gas pipe
railing or fence the ends of the gas pipe
cannot wear the post as the back blade
of the lock protects the posts. Iho whole
fence , either picket or bar , can bo easily
taken up and moved to some other place
without any damage. It is so simple
that anybody can build a fence with the
same , and for durability it cannot be sur
passed.

The Drummer Got a Doao for Onoo
Minneapolis Journal : A traveling man
boarded a passenger train at Bismarck at
5 p. m. At 0 p , m. he was occupying a
double beat with a plump brunette and a
slim blonde , the latter of whom remarked
that she was "married but Hattie was
not. " The blonde was perusing a novel ,
one of the kind sold at two prices by the
insinuating "peanut. " The drummer
.vantcd . to bo agreeable and pleasant , so
10 asked her If she would not read a
chapter or two to him. "Oh , certainly , I
like to road out loud. " So she gave a
synopsis of the chapters she had read.
'ihcro was u false marriage , a hidden will ,
a divorce , a baby , an elopement , a for
tune , a false heir , and several other nice
features in the synopsis. 'I he fair reader
'
' : iad a voice o'no of the sharp , pierc-
ng kind that could insinuate itself
nto the deaf side of a post. At 7 p. m.
she had finished the synopsis and com
menced on the remainder of the story.
At II p. m. she had not slipped a cog in
her tongue-working machineiy , and the
'also heir hnd the upper hand. At 11 p.
D. there had been no intermission ex
cept for a sip of alkali ater which
cleared her throat. Everybody else
wanted to go to sleep , but nobody could.
At 1 a. m. the story was still being poured
into the satiated ears of the unfortunate
drummer. There was now a chance for
the truly good to get their reward in
the story while the false heir and the
drummer wore getting the worst of it.
At 1:20 : a. m Fanro was reached. Every
body who could pot off and the last thing
that mot their eyes was a paralyzed drum
mer , while the sibilant tones of a woman's
voice were wafte.d out on the still night
air. "God pitv that woman's husband , "
growled an old bachelor in the rear scat ,
while a maiden of uncertain ago whis
pered. "Serves that odious drummer
right for flirting so shamefully. "
A Healthy Stomach
s a blessing for which thousands of our
dyspeptic countrymen and women sigh
in vain , and to obtain which swallow
much medicine unavailingly. For no
ailment probably are there so many
alleged rcmbdics as for dyspopsid. The
man of humbug is constantly glutted
with the dollars and dimes of those who
resort to one nostrum after another in
the vain hope of obtaining relief , at
least , from this vexatious and obstinate
malady. Experience indicates Hostet-
tcr's stomach Bitters as a means of
eradicating dysyopsla , in which a firm
rolianro can bo placed. No remedy has
in three decades and over established
such a reputation , none has received such
unqualified professional sanction. It is
an admirable invigorant , because it en
riches the blood , and not only this , but it
thoroughly regulates the bowels , kidneys
and bladder. The neivous symptoms
are usually relieved by the medicine.
