AN ATTORNEY'S DEEP GRIEF. Found Guilty of Forgery The Opera Holme iMop Curtain Under the iWniimln , niul Oilier Ilrlcf Mention. TlioHlrctrli : Thq tow r lights , have sent out no lays for the past two nights to guide the belated lilurtltcto his home , nml they will not be running ngnin until the weather moderates Btifllclcntly for the men to work on the top of the towers. The results experienced thus far from thcuew method of lighting the city have elicited widely varying comments , al though it is the general impression that the change has b cn for the better. Several of the business mrn of thorliy hnvo expressed themselves as being disappointed because the lights did not do as well as thu ones did on the court house during the trial last summer , and have attributed It to the Use of n three- sided lantern instead of u globe around thu lamps. In order to ascertain whether them was anything ! this state ment. the Hti : : mancstcrday calico upon Mr , Thomas Officer , of the electric light , company , and asked his opinion of the present working of the new lights. " 1 have not been around very much to f > cc the effects from the different towers1 f.nid he. "but from what 1 have seen 1 atn very well satisfied. There was considerable trouble in locating the tower on Oakland avenue , from the fact that theic wcie no cross streets along there to afford us the proper guy fastenings , and one of tno posts liatl to be placed on private property. The only place to be obtained was at the coiner of Avenue 10 , and Mr. Mutt granted the desired permission to place a post on his grounds. When 1 MUV the location , I was very uncertain whether a tower at that place- would light the bottom lands , as the liuhts would be more than 'J.'jd foot above them , Wncn the lights wcie started I rode out tlinre to see the effect , and was very iigiceabl.v dis appointed. In testing the power of electric lights , and thu results obtained from towers of diffcient heights It has bcrn uscci tallied that the same light will bo received ; lum fiet from a 50 foot tower : I , t ( XI feet from a 7i > foot tower : lf > ( K ) from a 100 foot tower ; -,1(10 ( tcct from a 1-5 foot tower and " , .MiO feet finm a 150 foot tower. It was for this reason that I advised the council to adopt the l.VI foot tow ers. The .same i-xperiments showed I hut when the lights were elevated above Kill feet the distance to which the light was thrown begun to decrease , demonstrating that the best results could be obtained from towers of thu height adopted In the citj. " "I Jo you think that ( lie lanterns now in UM : on the tower lights are as good as the globe- , that were used on the old lights ! " If 1 had not thought Sn , I shuuld nut have bought them , us they cost about S."i , while I could have bought globes for the twenty- eight lamps at about * ! apiece. 1 went to Detroit , where thi'V li'.ur about one bundled and twenl.v-tive \ loot towers , and saw these lanterns in use. 1 did not make any particular inquiries in rcg.ml to them , but supposed they had pivcji them a sufficient test. It maj bo Hint globes would be bettor , but I think tli.it the lanterns have not yet had a fair test. The glasses hud to be put in alter the lamps wcie in place , and the weather at thu time WHS quite cold for a man to work at tli.it elevation with his ban- hands , for tiiu glass had to be cut on the top of the lowers , so it would , iot be at all surprising if the work was done rather hurriedly , and the the glass mluht not have fitted tightly. It will be impossible to tell what caused them to blow out , until a man can go to ( lie top of the towers. The lamps may have swung around so us to bring thohot metal in cont'ict with the glass , und so have ciacked and broken it , although it is of double thickness. It is too cold at present for a man to work at replacing the glass , but such weather would not prevent him from going up to put In now cartoons if the lamps were in running order. Tin1 only objection to a globe is that it may get full of snow and frce/e. Such a thing might not happen for two or three years , although it did a few times last winter. In those cases the base was taken into an adjoining store and thawed out , Imt that would bo almost impossible to do with twenty-eight lights , lo cated ISO fci't in the air. These lanterns wcro supposed to obviate all such difficulties , and I want them fitted up in good shape this time. If the city council prefers the globes , of course they can have them. The lights will not be. started again until plcas.tnt weather , for a man can not work up there now. The lights on the court house were fixed to-day , but the man had to come down about every ten minutes to warm. Tins talk about the corners of the lanterns throwing a . heavy shade is overdrawn , for the shade thrown by one lantern is overcome by the light from another. I think they will work all right , still they can bo changed if neccs- sary. " "Do you think the lights on the court house are giving as good results as they did last summer I" "Yes , just exactly. There is no reason why they should not. The lamps are just as strong , and the current the same. There is no difference. " "Tnero is considerable talk in the city at present regarding the incandescent light. How is it as compared with the arc system i" "Why , for lighting offices , private houses , and small rooms , the incandescent is the thing , but for street lighting and for large rooms the arc is the best. For a church ot opera house the incandescent gives u much pleasanter light , but it requires a gre.it many of them. The arc lighting is giving peed satisfaction at the prcsbytoriun church , and it the Methodist will be lighted in the same way , if other subscribers can be found in thai vicinity to make it pay to build a line up there. The work on the tower lights will be 1 done as soon as possible , and I hope the re suit will bo satisfactory. I don't want an other failure , and the repairs will not b ( made until they can be made properly. The city will not bo left in absolute darkness , a the moon and gas still shine.

Young , just concluded al * > Glenwoodcomcs as a great surprise to many ( Ho was well known throughout this part o : the stntCjhaving been located nt Malvernam having there become quite prosperous am prominent as an attorney. Ho lately movci to Omaha , and thb best wishes of a largi ' circle of friends went with him. Ho hai o. been considered as bright in head and hones in heart , and when the announcement wa is ; made that ho had been indicted for forgery , ! was generally thought that the result mus be an honorable acquittal. Now following th surprise felt at the indictment.comes u f urthe surprise in the verdict of guilty. The charge against Young was that ho hai forged the name of Mr. Klnnry to a note fo tiUK ) , and had used this note at the bank a collateral security on n loan. Kinney cami upon the stand und denounced the signatnr Is as a forgery. To offset this the defens in claimed that It was not that Kinney wh in.Ml signed the note , but another Kinney , whos .Ml homo was now in St. Louis , and whoso dc JO ( Kjsition wus rend , in which this Kinne ; stated that ho had signed thu note , and thu it was his genuine note. This with Mi Young's avowal tliat ho had been straight ii Oil this mutter , made It look like a case of mis ti taken identity , or n bad tangle of mlsundei tine standings. ne The sensation of the trial was the appeal cs anco on the witness stand of the St. Loui on attorney , who , ns notary , had taken the dc her l > oslUoii of this Kinney , This notary tcntlHci ray that Young was the man who reprcsentei ay himself as Kinney and subscribed to the dc . position. This evidence was n startler and ' crusher. The jury returned a vcrdjct accord as ingly nndlng Young puilty. an Young was ono of the aspirants a year n ; ho for the republican nomination for .

The work Is the latest product of the celebrated composer , George F. Itoot , and combines many of his best musical ideas. In the disti ibutlon of the work splendid op- IKirtunitles arc presented for the different volcos. The onrcinblc is a grand conception , for in It. arc combined the various shades of feeling which moved the Jewish people in the scenes of their history which are hero de picted. This presentation was an accurate rcVroductlon of the conception of the author. The chorus was constituted of about fifty voices. It showed a wonderful symmetry and unison in its execution. This wus the result of careful training ut the hands of the Hcv. t.1. . Mackcy and the organist , Mr. W. J , ( .iratiun , and to them much credit is due for thotruiningof the fifty children toso high a degree is no small matter. The soloists rendered their parts with rare excellence. Mivs Barbara Merkel , the so- piano , added new laurels to her already en viable reputation. Mrs. Ward , always a favorite , laid additional claim to prominence as an alto foloist. Her voice showed Its won derful richness especially in the solo , to which Miss Mary Haas furnished a beautiful harp accompaniment. This was keenly ap preciated by the audience and the other singers us well. Mr. I. M. Trcynor. wlioluus man.\ times before delighted Council Bluffs audiences , rendered his tenor solos splcn- didl.Mr. . . .lohn Coopcrshowcd the posses sion of marked qualities us a buss soloist which need only time and opportunity to re ceive full iccornition nt tlic hands of the public. The other paits demanding special mention lire the duetts by Miss Merkel and Mrs. Ward and the male quartette by Messrs. Tre-ynor. Gilbert , Nortimp and Cooper , with obliifiito solo by Miss Merkel. The cn tumes were elegant and appropri ate to the Jewish character ut that nge. The stage was erected in the chuncel und Its ur- riinp-cincnt und adornment were beautiful. Token as u whole the work was most ex cellently rendered. The audience wus largo and showed its appreciation freely as oppor tunity was presented.

The case of Freluont Ucnjamin against Arch ColTman is still on trial at Avoca , In this case llcnjamin claims fi.filX ) fee for at tending to ColTinan's interests in a prelimi nary hearing only. On the part of CotTinan the claim is resisted on the ground that he has paid Henjamin all that hcwascntitlcd to , that the fee demanded is exhorbltant , and worse than all , that Benjamin , after being discharged from the case , went over to the enemy and not only revealed to the prosecu tion the secrets of his client , but tried to em ploy attorneys to prosecute Coffman. Among the' witnesses for Coffman was Askwith , Benjamin's old partner. Judge Thornell , who was prosecuting attorney in the Coffman case , was called in as a witness. John Y. Stone , whom Benjamin tried to employ to prosecute Coffman in the case , was also on the stund. There seems to be a good deal of interest taken now in the affairs of the old law firm of Benjamin & Askwith. The two lawyers have fallen out , and there are some spicy stories being told , each on the other. A move is mudc to have Askwith disbarred , and there are whisperings that like proceed ings may be commenced against Benjamin when this case is through. Always ut the Front.
