There Is some talk of forming a now board of trade , or at least a reorganiza tion of that body. By previous experi ence it has been shown that a board of trade in Council Bluffs , as well as other cities , amounts to very llttlo. In this city there has been llttlo work done bv the board compared with what a body pi that kind could have done had it ad the enthusiasm necessary to back it. The club has been organized by the busi ness men of this city , und besides being > n a good financial basis it is composed if the very best business material in the ity. Its rooms arc conveniently and uxurlously arranged for the reception of visitors to this city , und there seem few f any objections to letting the club do .ho work supposed to bo attended to by a joard of trade. The club rooms arc as Jcgantly furnished as those of any city in the west , and although , perhaps , not as spacious as the rooms of tbo Omaha club , they are as elegant in their appointments. The merchants and professional men moot lioro , and knowing it to be to their in terest , they can constitute themselves a board of trade and use their influence in he proper direction. It is in their rooms ind through their hospitality that the weak spot in a manufacturer's heart can bo reached , and many a manufacturer can , when properly approached , bo iccurcd for Council Bluffs. Manufactur- ng is what the city needs and there looms no good reason why it cannot bo had. _ It has proved almost impossible at imcs to get even a quorum of the old board of trade to attend a meeting. Not a night will pass without thcro being a goodly number of representative busi ness men , who can bo easily gathered at 'he club roomsto consult on any matters > f public moment , and take the initial tops. Human FralltlcB. Business in Judge Aylcsworth's court r'csterrtay morning was about as usual. oscph Mahoney , a homesick Minncapo- is youngster of seventeen , charged with agrancy , was discharged , as ho said ho would immediately start for home and profit by the good advice given him. 7rank Motter , alias "Suot , " a hack- driver , was taxed $21.30 for assault and battery. The victim of his surgical skill was William Jefferics , whoso scalp ho "aid open , the instrument used being a ivagou wrench. When informed of the amount of his line ho expressed a desire to have Jcffcrics arrested on the same charge and his wish was gratified. James Owens , a farmer of Oak township , Mills county , was charged with being drunk. Ho told a story of the unfortunate alllic- tion that caused the extreme unsteadi ness of his logs and the pain in his bead , but admitted that ho had been in a saloon for an hour just previous to his ar rest. His honor said he had no wish to ino a man for sickness , and discharged him with the advice to keep away from even the smell of whisky hereafter , as the odor seemed to make his ailmet worse. James Adams came up smiling , and m answer to the judge's query , said he had slept very well indeed. Ho was regis tered as the "umbercll man" the previ ous night , but now gave his proper name and said ho was a tinner from Syracuse , N.Y. Ho admitted that he was very drunk when arrested , and had money to nay a lino. When invited to contribute $8.10 to help the cause along he wanted his fine remitted , and promised to leave forthwith for treraont , Neb. , where he lias work , but the incredulous judge was afraid ho could not withstand the en treaties of friends in Omaha , and would not have it so. The licit Grading. The resolution at the last mooting of the council , calling for the grading of Sixth , Seventh and Eighth streets , was leclared lost. The vote stood three to two , Aldermen Wells , Metcalf and Lacy voting for the resolution , and Aldermen Keller and Danforth voting against it. The vote was declared by Alderman Wells , who was presiding , as lost on the round that it required two-thirds of the council to vote in its favor. The alder men who voted against the resolution justify themselves in doing so on the ground of economy , wanting to save the city from the expense of the inter sections. On the other hand it is claimed , with a good showing of sense , that the resolution would have secured a largo amount of improvement with little outlay from the city's funds. The real effect of the resolution is to compel railroad companies to till in their yards and tracks end raise thorn to grade. Mayor Gronoweg is of the opin ion that ttio resolution should have boon declared carried , as there were three votes for it ana only two against it , which , under the rules , as ho construes thorn , carried the resolution. The lire system was accepted by a resolution passed by such a vote exactly. If one was void the other was. There is a dif ference , under the rules , between im provements petitioned for by the prop erty-owners and those ordered by the council of their own accord. The Major Wants a Pension. The statement has boon going the rounds of the Iowa press that Dr. Cross was trying to get the state of Iowa to grant him money enough to recompense him in part , at least , for the damages ho had sustained by beiutc arrested and tried for the murder of Dr. McCuuo. Most of those papers which have commented on the claim have criticized It very sharply , but this does not seem to have dampened the ardor of "Major" Williams , the con- fiionco man who was arrested and tried for killing Hughes in the old Union Ave nue hotel , lie has kept very shady since ho was acquitted and allowed no time to be wasted in putting a safe distance bo- twcen himself and Council Bluffs * Ho still keeps his whereabouts a secret but writes a very touching letter in regard to bis situation : ' To My Council Bluffs Friends ( that Is , If I hare any ) : I happened to come across a paper by which 1 learn that Dr. Cross is mov ing to get the state of Iowa to give him dam ages on account of his having been Impris oned and sentenced to be hung , and alter- wards declared not guilty. 1 am clad to learn that there Is fair prospect of his bolus ; given his claim , lie ought to get at least § 500,000. I wouldn't want to RO through such an experience as that for half that amount and the doctor Is twice PS good a man as I am. He ( uttered rnoro than I did. He was tried twice , If I remember right , and one time wa * found pullty and came very near having to stretch , but ha sot a new trial and was acquitted. While 1 would not have one cent cut off his allow ance , yet I feel that my allowance should be as much as his. for while ho Buffered more , yet he did not sutler as unjustly as I did. J was looked up In the county jaQ for a loins time , was tried as a murderer , but without even going on the stand myself. 1 was ac quitted. No jury has ever said I was guilty , Or. Cross admitted that he killed Dr. Mo Kune , but proved that he did it In aelf-de fense. 1 neyer admitted that ikilled , Hughe * There were many who Bald I shot Hughes down In cold blood , and some believe It now , but they did not swear to It positively eiioiuh to convict me , and I never admitted that 1 killed him at all. 1 have always held myself to be Innoceut , 'and no judicial has said I was guilty. The county has had to spend about 310,000 In trying Dr. Cross , but one trial was all 1 had , and that a cheap sort ot affair , so far as the county was concerned. Under nil those circumstances 1 think I am justly entitled teas as much damages as the doctor. Further than this 1 really need the idoncy more than the doctor. He has a better pro fession than I. The confidence business Is rather unprofitable now. It has hiul too much free advertl.sment. 1 think that the slate of Iowa would give me half of what I think the doctor expects S5UO.OU01 would be Hatlsned. I could then start a savings bank , and after a while could Bather uo a stake In the usual method. If you could see mo in my present deplorable condition , and realize the scarcity ot suckers , 1 am sure you would take pity on mo , and urge the grand state of Iowa to pension me liberally. 1'lease get up a petition to the governor , and help mo get this through.

The bids for finishing up the interior of the new government building were given in yesterday's telegraph col umns of the BEE. It appears that the Council Bluffs bidders were several hoiisand dollars above others , and the lontract therefore will doubtless go way from homo. The bids include the whole interior finishing , plastering , lathing , hardware , marble work , iron work , carpentering , etc. The con- ' .factor . , whoavor ho may be , cannot jopln work until the plumbing is done , jtrang & Co , of Omuha , have the con- : ract for this , and the work is to be com- ileted sixty days from September D , the ate of the contract. The steam heating s to be completed by the 80th of Novem- ) er , a Cincinnati lirm having that con- ract. After that the work for which hose last published bids were made will begin.

Notwithstanding the outward weather f last evening Masonic temple was fairly filled with those who are laboring for the establishment of a Chautauqua assembly hero. President L. W. Tulleys presided nd stirring addresses were delivered by Rev. D. H. Tooley , Rev. Dr. Phelps , Rev. T. J. Mackay , Mr. L. W. Ko s and others. The advantages to bo secured wuro ably [ nd fully presented. Letters were read ihowlng the success that has already at- .cudcd similar institutions elsewhere. Questions wore freely asked and an- sword enlightening those who were not r personal experience familiar with lautauqua work. Altogether the mooi ng was rather informal than otherwise , but great impetus was given the work on hand , and Us details , leading to a final consummation of this earnestly wished Tor result , will bo the more ardently prosecuted. Music was intcrpersed by a juartottc constituted of Miss Fanny Wes- iott , Messrs. Paul Tulleys and Frank and ? erry Badollct. Tlin Foil oral Court.

But when ho saw the patrol wagon ho sob ered up and informed the police that ho would walk to jail. "I won't ride in that wagon , " ho said. "I shall not pay for it , if 1 do. Remember I am willing to walk und will refuse to pay for the rule. " Ho evidently know that the ride to jail would cost him 50 cents extra.

The Government of Cities. Scribnor for October : If popular gov ernment and universal suffrage arc to have any real meaning , the people must be placed in a position to know what is going on ; whereas all our present ar rangements , whether by the secrecy of committee rooms , or by that of executive officials , who novcr appear before the public at all , are such that the people never know any thing of that with respect to which they are yet expected to judge and to decide. .In the Now England town meeting , the selectmen appear once or twice a year bcforo the whole assembly of the inhabitantsand are cross-examined by individuals. The test is so severe , and the judgment follows so swiftly at the elections , that corrup tion and even political intrigue are almost unknown. When a town becomes too largo for such u meeting , the change is made to a city government with one or two representative councils. In theory these councils should do the work of tlio town mooting that is , watch tbo course of administration , enforce responsibility , and keep the people in formed. In practice they get possession of a largo part of the administration , break up and destroy responsibility , and oflectiuvlly conceal both their own doincs and those of the executive. The offset and safeguard in entrusting extensizo powers to a mayor is in providing a tribunal before which ho and his agents may promptly , easily and continuously bo held to public account If a body of one or two hundred men from all parts of Now York were to assemble , say once u monthbeing debarred by law from any interference with administration , having no power to dictate any action or to vote any appropaiation except upon proposal of the executive , but with full power of suggestion , of criticism , and of veto ; if the mayor and his chief officials were to appear publicly before this body at each session to submit their plans , answer questions. and ask for votes of money , the people would bo perfectly able to judge of the character and ac tions of their servants , and to . express their opinions ut 'tho polU. Then , and not till then , can yro hold universal suf- fragu responsible for failure of govern ment. Are you weak and weary , overworked and tired ?

Philadelphia Herald : Ono of tbo many pleasant incidents during the centennial celebration last week duo to the open hearted hospitality shown by citizens to visitors occurred on Friday , and is worthy of note. Charles Hanger/ Cheyenne , came cast to take part in the exorcises , bring ing with him two nieces from Davenport , la. They started out on Friday to view the parade , the first object being to obtain good positions without being compelled to stand In the crowd. On passing the southwest corner of Thirteenth and Chestnut streets , Mr. Hanger observed some workmen erecting scats in the show window of the store of Thackara Sons & Co. Ho offered to bear the oxpcnso of their construction for the use of thrco seats. Charles Thackara , of the lirm , was summoned , and learning whore the visitors wcro from generously offered them seats and gave them every attention possible. One of the young ladies happened to address Mr. Hanger as "Uncle Charlie" while Mr. Thackara was present. The fact of them bearing the same Christian name was commented upon as a rather singular coincidence , particularly as they had been born on the same day. "Aro you a married man ? " inquired Mr. Thackara of his now-found friend. "I am , " was the reply. I was married on the 27th day of Mav , 1872. " "That's singular. That's the day on which I was married. My wife's liamc Ida. " "So is mine , " almost shouted the west erner. "Have you any children ? " "Yes , I have one son. " "So have 1. What's your boy's name ? " "Fred. " "Well , this is the most singular thing I heard of. That's ' ever my boy's name , .00. " The comparison ended hero , however , 'or ' Master Hanger was born nine days before Master Thauknrn. The singular circumstance of the two men bearing the same Christian name ; being born and married on the same days ; both marrying ladies bearing the same name , and each having but one son , and these sons bearing the same name , was the principal subject of con- versati"n in a group of friends who occu pied the windows in Thackara's store for ho remainder of the day , und the acci dental acquaintance of the gentlemen will no doubt ripen into a friendship which will continue through the remain der of their lives.

A young Englishman -arrived in the city to-night and registered at' a hotel as Carter ( i. jlordon , from Savannah , Ua. Shortly after ho created quite a sensation by walking up and down the principal streets clad in knee breeches , a peaked straw hat , and a 'huge ' capo overcoat , although the weather was sultry. His eccentric conduct soon attracted atten tion , particularly as lie was lavish with money , slapping down $ 100 bills for trif ling articles and declining to accept any change. It appears that lie arrived from England a few months ago , burdened with more money than ho knew what to do with , and to gratify u singular freak made a bee-line for Texas. Heanns that the town of Ballinger was a good place at which to invest capital in lands he quickly went thcro and caused consider able astonishment by not only buyinc lands , but by buying almost every thing in the city. Ho purchased a train ofs vagons , purchased all the guns and ritlcs and pistols in the town , hired a number of men to serve him , and then organizec a force to hunt Indians and buf fi a-To. Such is a history of his earliest exploits. The Indian hunting scheme fell through , however , and the eccentric young Eng lishman took a trip to Sail Francisco and soon left that city for Georgia. He was evcrcomo with a desire to see Texas again , however , and he explained his ac tion tonight by saying that he was par ticularly impressed with Ualvcston , and thought he'd buy out several wealthy syndicates. Whatever truth thcro may bo in his story , ho certainly scums to be overstocked with money. Occasionally he would bo surrounded by curious groups on the street corners , and before leaving them he would present two or three in the crowd with a roll of bills. H e said to tlio Globe-Democrat correspondent pendent that his next objective point was St. Louis , where ho intended to bo luring the Grand Army encampment , and whore ho intended spending bushels o f money. How the Chinese Scare the Drivll. San Francisco Examiner : The begin ning of the annual Chinese festival known as "Gheo Koung Tung" took place at the joss house of tlio Ghee Kong Tung society , in Spofford alloy. The alloy was ablaze with candles and sandal paper which emitted malodorous lumes. At the entrance of the joss house wcro two giant figures made of paper , repre senting great potentates of a former period. Inside , candles and punks were burning amid decorations of most bril liant colored papers , giving it a most de cidedly oriental appearance. On a plat form in front of each of their special idols wcro all the fruits of the season candles , cakes und other chmcso luxur ies. Sandal wood was burning on every side. Promptly at 13 o'clock midnight , a procession formed in front or the joss house , headed by several pagans bearing burning wood on a wire screen , witn which they lit the prepared parcels com posed of punks and grensy paper , whicli wore placed lu front of each door on the line of march. After this came the lan tern-carriers , followed by the prominent members of the society , who were dressed in long gowns und a peculiar shaped turban hats on tlicr | ho.ids ; About a dozen Chinese children worn in the wako of tlio procession , also in holiday attire. The latter arc known as the Ghee Koung Fung Cheng Tmug.or the societies' altar boys. After marching around Dupont. Washington and Clay streets , and thJ alloys abounding in that neighborhood , they re-entered the joss house and the feasting began. The festival lasts four days , and each day ft m two to thrco hundred China- mon are fed gratis. The festival is an ancient one , and is held at every city where Chinamen who belong to the so ciety abound. The Ghee Koung Tung festival is a feast in honor of the great dead. The burning of the papers , candles and punks is , it Is said , to keep the evil spirit away from the living as well as the dead. This religious society is the richest as well as the most powerful amongst the Chinese. From $5,000 to f 10,000 are spent every year in this city in the idolatrous festiv ity. This fund consists of contributious from members of the society. FINE MILLINERY. New Fall Styles Open. 1314 Dtuglas St. , OMAHA , LATEST BY TELEPHONE ! .I. Say !
