The following telegram from Wash

the western papers , has caused some little
stir about the now government building
at tills point :
The astounding disclosure was mtulo licro

hasty letting of the contracts. In order to
get the building under way Inst your the
whole force of 0110 division In the supervising
architect's rifllco was put at work on the
Council Bluffs plans and ten days' work was
accomplished in one , The contractors are
severely blamed for their bail work , but n
share of the fault lies with the government
oflicl.iK
Superintendent Maxon declares that
the foregoing was born of malice. Ho
says Ihoro has been no settlement of the
walls in months. Prior to the time of
the completion of the stone super
structure there was n settlement. IIo
re-quested that the foundation bo rein
forced and "detiirod an inspector to bo

inspector canuj and reported that , con
sidering the great weight of the build

Three evil-doers were before Judge

case of George Donaldson , charged with
assault and battery , was continued until
9 o'clock this morning. W. W. Gilmore
wasup fordisturbing the peace. Charles
Sullivan was charged with the larceny
of live oil barrels. Neither were ready
for trial. During the day two men
named Blades and Middloton were ar
rested at the instance of Mrs. Powder ,
for destroying property in her Vine
street boarding house. The charge
entered against them was vagrancy and
malicious mischief. When the cell door
was opened for Blades ho shed an abund
ance of croc-odilo tearsand said ho daily
expected his dear little wife to arrive in
the city , and was much afraid that she
could never find him in that vile place.
Ed Bedis-on was also arrested for mali
cious mischief.

To the Ktlitor of the BKK : By a mis
understanding in my allldavit , pub
lished in the paper * , concerning the
punishment of my child at school , the
name of Miss Buchdl appears. This
ought not to bo , as she had nothing
whatever to do with the punishment ,
and I do not want to do her any injus
tice , she being wholly blameless and in
no way concerned in the cuhO. I should
not have made the aflldavit had I sup
posed it was to bo made public. The
alUdaylt was secured with the under
standing that it was to bo presented to
the board of education only , for them to
act upon. L. DUNL.U' .

Couxcir , BLUKKS , Dec. . To the
Editor of the BKK : Please allow mo a
few lines in your valuable paper in jus
tice to the public. I have time anil
again warned the public about weighing
on the so-called city scales that have no
authority and pay no license to the city ,
and have not for the past live or fa
years. For proof , I refer the public to
the city clerk's books. Thcro is a sys
tem of short weights that protects the
boiler and not the buyer , by weighing
on scales not authorised by the city. I
am powerless to protect the confjiimor ,
as I get no protection from the council.
When I was elected to the olHee of city
welghmtifctor , I made a proposition to
the council , that it they would give mo
an ordinance that would protect the
public , I would nut a deputy in the
upper and 0110 in tno lower part of the
city , if npccfrsarv , to accommodate the
public weighing. The council failed to
give mo this authority therobv the city
receiving no .revenue from" private
' * * * . * / ' t
* ' ' . *
, and the public ix system of
short woitf his as my books will show , by
parlies Who have weighed on private
scales , and re-wolghcd on city scales ,
It was only yesterday 1 discovered a
mistake of o90 jKHinds on ono load to a
leading firm , and in many ether in
stances , discrepances too palpable to beef
of daily occurrence that prove conclu
sively a system of short weights over
which the city weighmaster has no con
trol by testing private scales or other
wise. Yours respectfully ,
W. S. AM v , City Weighmaslor.

Mr. Lawson , ono of the board of edu
cation , scemq to dilTcr somewhat in
opinion from other members of the
board. He does not favor corporal pun
ishment in the schools under any cir
cumstances. He believes that the teach
ers should have authority to send a re
fractory punil home. Suspension from
school privileges should lake the plaeo
of brute force. He docs not , therefore ,
endorse the use of the three foot slick.
Ho says ho has heard so many com
plaints about children being punished
too severely that ho is getting tired of
it. lie is ready for a reform in this re
spect.

Yesterday afternoon a young man , a
stranger in the city , stepped into a lit
tle Broadway hotel , and askcil pel-mis
sion to leave his satchel. He went out
to buy a railway ticket and do some

ilicd for his grip , as ho was ready to
tart for the train. To his surprise ho
vas charged ten cents for leaving his
atehol there. As there was no such
nlimation when ho asked permission
o leave it the young man was quite
akon aback. Ho went oil' roaring nt

On Monday Justice Burnett came
very near having a wedding. A couple ,
ipparcntly of a marriageable ago , ap-
ilicd to him for the beau knot of matri-
nony. They were without the legal

'or that requisite. Hero it developed
that they wore from Ashland , Neb.
Accordingly a license was refused and
.hey were sent across the river. Their
mines were not learned. It was evi
dently a runaway match , but it failed to
strike fire this time. Council Bluffs islet

joing a second Chicago in matrimonial

His wife had the insane commissioners

was not cra.y , at least not enough to
warrant his being sent to an asylum.
The probability is that bad whisky was

Waste of Tissue Without Ilcpnlr.
Vigor begins to decline when dyspep
sia invades'ho stomach , and the dis
ease , prolonged through neglect , en
tails grievous loss of llesh and serious
waste of muscular tissue. To invigor
ate thoroughly and speedily , a sound
stomach is rcauirc.d. There is none
comparable to Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ers , since it institutes , and if con-
.inued , perpetuates a repair of the tis
sues , which may have declined in bulk ,
vigor and elastic-ally in consequence of
non-assimilation of the food. No time
should bo lost in beginning the rcpaira-
Ave woe-ess , nor should ! there be any
delay in removing those ailments of
frequent occuronee , which contribute
to and foster an enfeebled "condition of
the stomach and nervesvizii'onstiputjon
ind liver complaint disorders which
the bitters will assuredly extinguish. It
also remedies and prevents malaria
and kidney troubles , and is a prime
auxiliary in the recovery "of strength
for convalescents from wasting disease.
