( Evidently a mistake was made when
the street oo-sings were put at the
leve of the streets. Why not raise the
crossings hutllciently to allow the mud
tollow _ on" , or when cleaned to remain
so ? The suggestion is worthy of con
sideration.
It will require but little more pleasant
weather to complete the exterior of the

already slated to within ten feet of the

to its lo ty resting place.
The water works pumping station is

Jacob Ncumoyer is planning for the

on the south , occupies fifty-seven feet
front. This will bo the width of the
new building. .Should ho conclude to
build , which is more than probable , ho
will begin as soon as the weather will
permit in the spring. His plans are al
ready prepared , and the prospects of
another hotel in the immediate future
are good.
During the past twenty-four hours
there has been quito an exodus of the
"fair but frail , " indeed it has amounted
to a general stampede. Since yesterday
morning each out-going train has taken
its quota. The cause of this fright was
the rumor , which is well grounded , that
every house of ill-fame and their in
mates , FO far as their names could bo
learnedhad been indicted by the grand
jury. If this jury shall succeed in clos
ing u ] ) these disreputable houses and
the gambling hells of the city its record
will stand as a monument to their hon
esty in executing tlio will of the people.
The most acceptable Christmas pres
ent the mayor can mnko to the citizens
of Council BlulTs would bo to provide
for the swooping of the street crossings.
One man with a stitT broom could keep
the crossings in the business part of the
city in a passable condition. The Blull-
ite.s nro not disposed to Bo too particular
in this respect , but they demand that
ho shall either do this or provide buita-
ble ferry boats to take them across the
stream of mud and slush known as
Broadway. The present state of alTairs
is a monumental disgrace to this other
wise beautifucity. \ .

The Title to the PnrK.
There are pretty sure indications that
a suit will commence not far in the future -
turo to contest the city's title to the
eighty acres which constitute what is
known as Fail-mount park. AVout eight
years ago this tract rough and covered
with dense brush , was considered
practically worthless. It has long been
platted as Williams' second addition ,
but those who owned lots , at least most
of them , had allowed the land to go for
taxes , and really abandoned their rights.
It did seem to the casual observer that
the tract would never be of any account ,
but some of the citizens who were
wiser , saw into the future , and realized
that this would in time become ouo of
the most picturesque parks in the coun
try. Tlio city council was induced to
secure the land by condemnation pro
ceedings. Tlio cost was a little over
81,200 , and there were stops being taken
to got an injunction to restrain the city
from paying out the money , there being
numerous citizens who 'thought it a
fccheme by which the city would throw
away money for nothing. Those who
wonted the-plan through , however , are
now justified , Tlio city is making of it
a park which is fast winning a national
reputation. It is the flue&tmiturnl park
in the west , and by the. recent improve
ments made by the park commissioners
ib fabt becoming a most attractive ro-
fcQVt. It is now the pride of the city ,
and ia uho\Vn to every stranger as ono of
the great attractions of the city.
There have boon some rumors afloat
that an attack was to be made upon the
city's rights to this park , and now
comes an apparent confirmation to such
reports by the recording of n deed by
which E. S. Williams transfers to C.
Haldcno'1 all the tract. Whati/iuohn /
contest hi courts , u& is 'noyr' looked' 'for ' ;
'will end it can only bo conjectured , but
It will In any oVoit ) cause much trouble
nnd an outlay of funds which need to
be devoted to the improvement of the
park. The park cominlsslonors'wlll not
go to sleep nnd let the rights of the city
Buffer. The well known character , estab
lished by a long residence hero , is sulll-
clent assurance that they will make a
noble defense , if such ad attack isinadc.
The park which eight years ago was
considered BO worthless that citizens
protested against it being taken at even
81,200 is now of great value. Its front
age nlono is worth $ oOKX ( ) nt least. Tlio
question of title is , therefore , by no
means n trifling ono. The citizens ftow
take so much pride in Fairmont park
that there will bo much righteous indig
nation against any ono oven claiming to
have a right to it' , and still more should
it turn out that mieh claim had no real
equity at its foundation. The suits
have not been commenced , but notices
are expected daily.

Yesterday afternoon the jewelry house
of C. Voss , -115 Broadway , was closed ,
and an olllccr had possession. Inquiry
revealed the following facts : In May
hist a chattel mortgage was given on
the stock and upiwrtijEiiuccs in favor of
L. M. Crafts to secure the loan of $100
Yesterday Crafts attempted to forcclobo ,
when John Limit , Esq. , representing
the owner ot the block in which the
store is located , took possession of the
store on a landlord's lien for $170 rent
duo. Other creditors , holding small
claims against the concern , appeared to
secure themselves against loss. Tlio
total indebtedness represented is about
$700. Tlio value of tlio stock is placed
at from $1,000 to $1.200.
At u late hour otlorts were being made
to adjust the ditlieuHy , that Mr. Voss
may continue in business. From the
business of coming holiday * it is hoped
to bo able to bridge over the present
stress , in which hope the public will
share.

Auditor Cadwallader of the "Q" is ex
pected in the city this morning to check
up the tickets in the company's Broad
way olllee , and ascertain the loss , if any ,
by Monday's robbery. Auditor Barrett
has already cheeked up the Kansas
City tickets , and found none misbing.
General Agent Marshall was at first dis
posed to mourn the loss of his overcoat ,
but now congratulates himself on his
good luck , as the thief overlooked one
that was worth twice as much us the ono
taken , and he will still bo sheltered
from the wintry blasts. The ollico has
been turned upside down for the past
few davs , us decided improvements nro
being made , but they will bo completed
by the last of the week , and it will then
be one of the finest ollices in the city.
This company will put on their no"w
train Sunday morning , leaving the
transfer at 0/iO : and the loi-al depot at
7 o'clock. This will put the BKI : in the
hands of its eastern readers about two
hours earlier than at present. This com
pany is over wide awake , and realizes
that by bcnelitting the public it benefits
itself. Tlio new train is not expected to
pay very well at the start , but the man
agement believes that it will bo appre
ciated by the traveling public , and will
eventually receive a heavy patronage.

District Court.
The court was occupied yesterday
with hearing the arguments on the ap
plication for removal of the case of
Overtoil vs Gciso from this to the federal
court. Geibo was enjoined for selling
beorj\t \ his brewery. His defense in
volves the constitutional point of con
fiscating property without remunera
tion , and the ground is taken that as
this point is involved the federal court
is its proper case for hearing. Stone &
Sims appear for the plaintiff. Wright ,
Baldwin & Hal.lano for the defense. A
decision was not given at the time of
adjournment.
The next case , which will probably
come up to-day for trial , is that of the
state agiiinbt Dan Currigg for contempt
in not obeying the injunction of the
court. It is not expected that the case
will be hotly contested by the defense.
