The conti-ovrrsy concerning the lot just

: rovu ct ill. It will bo icinemburci ! that the
Jalholln church folUs Hiippotvd they owned
inly 2HI ( feet on Alain street , and this was
old to .Mr. Merriam , of Omaha. In umlaut ;
hu Htirveys and examination of the plats it
, vas discovered that the fhurcli property ex-
unded considerably fatlhcr , taking In almost
11 of another lot. which was supposed to
iclonK to Mr. Voting , who lives In Louisville ,
'he church folks proceeded to take posses-
ion of the tinil , valued at about $ IO,0H ( ) , by
Hitting a fence about the lot. Now Mr.
Voung steps into court , and protests against
; he whittling down of his lot to a mere
ivedgo-shapcd , piece , of no hpccial value.
The suit Is an important one , and It will be
stoutly contested , as the Catholics arc confi
dent that they arc right , while Mr. Young
teems equally confident , as hu lias been pay-
ng taxes on the lot for years , and has claimed
losscsslon with no one to dispute or challenge
ils ownership.

IVIm Will Be
The rcslgnution of Mayor ( Jroncweg haslet
lot been formally acted upon , nnd .yet there
re numerous rumors ullo.it as to who will be
ils successor. It Is expected that the resig-
ation will bo accepted , und a committee lias
icon appointed , their duties being under-
teed to bo the drawing ill ) of a formal ne-
eptanee , and ot suitable resolutions com-
nendatory of the manner in which Air.
tronoweg has performed the ; duties of his
) ositlon. Tlieto is outside of the council n
eporl that the commilteo is to nominate n
iiicccssor , but this is not the understanding
if the aldermen.
The name of M. Keating has been nn-
umticed as the probable successor , but there
cemsto bo nothing tangible at the bottom of
his icport. The council will probably select
oine ono to serve until the spring election.
Jnder the law of the state the louncil , Incnbo
of such a vacancy , has the right to elect n
na.\or to serve until the people can elect one.
Jnder the present election laws it takes so
eng to secure a registry of voters and give
lotico for a special election that these pre-
iminaiics could hardly bo done bufoie the
line llxed for the regular election. The ad
ditional expense to the city would also bo
onslderable , and In view of this peculiar
situation there is an apparent desire on thu
> ait of the council to select some one who
vlll servo until the regular election , at
vhich time a mayor can be chosen by the
icople.
Tlio legal points involved need careful ex
amination , however. It is not merely u
liiestion of conferring honor niton this or
hat man. There are many important city
actions , in fact all the city legislation , which
lepcnds upon u legal election of mayor , for
validity. It is essential to every financial
move of the city to have the ma.vor elected
without the smallest legal Haw.
In rcgaid to who the man will be , and who
; ho man ought to be , thcro is u great diver
sity of opinion. Mr. Keating's name is the
3iily ono made public thus far , but there will
tie others , which will strike many with moro
favor. Mr. Keating has been in many re
spects a valuable citi/cn and a worthy of-
llcial. Ho will carry the democratic strength
with him , and this with u democratic council
will prove an advantage to him over others
who might bo named. There mo several
whom thu people would llko to secure for
their mayor who would not accept the of-
lice , If elected. In duo time there will tie bet
ter oppoiUtilities for comparison and choice.

History of nn Altar Cover.
The altar cover at St. Paul's church , the
gilt of which has been already noticed in the
HEK has quite n history connected with its
making. Five shades of religious belief arc
combined in it. The silk was given by one ,
the gold bullion , of which there is more than
twenty-live dollars worth , by another , the
gold fiingo by a third , the work was done by
u fourth nnd the fifth possesses it. This is a
practical evidence that religious faith is
above creed , as well as n demonstration of
the truth that Christianity is greater than
denoinimuiunalism.

Snooting for Turkeys.
There was a grand turkey shoot arranged
by Vint Corballoy , at Crescent City , for
Christmas. The winners were as follows ,
with the number of turkeys taken by each ,
most of the shooters being from CrcscntCIty :
A Smith 4 ; Dave Wilding 3 ; Ab Chase , of
the Council UlulTs Hlllo club. 3 ; Henry Terry
3jJ. Houldcn 8 ; H. Smith a ; Henry Hay-
wood , of the Council Bluffs llltle club , Mr.
Uage , Charles Humling , of Council H luffs ,
nnd S. McClure ono each. In the evening
thcro was n masquerade ball , and a merry
time. There are no liquors sold Increscent ,
but the pop and cider seemed to have fully
us cheering an effect , and the lackof extilll-
utlon was not noticeable.
A Iicj ; Doubly Broken.
Courtney CofTecn , son of Henry Coffeen ,
was riding his pony at a speedy Httlo Jog ,
when , In turning the corner by the Kiel
house , the pony slipped and fell with him.
The boy's leg was found to bo broken in two
places. Bo was taken to his home on Madi
son street , and Dr. I'innoy called in to attend
to the Injuries. Ho Is now resting aa com
fortably us could be expected , but the acci
dent knocked much off the merriment of
Christmas , and will keep him housed for
some time.

"Coal Oil Sullivan" completed u thirty-day
term in the county Jail nnd was released yes
terday morning. Not liking the wlntery
aspvctoulsido ho immediately adopted means
to secure board and lodging for the re
mainder of the winter. Ho went to the St.
Louis house , 709 Broadway , nnd entering the
room of a boarder took a suit of clothes and
an overcoat. Tlio theft was soon discovered
uud the police notified. "Coal Oil" was
easily recognized notwithstanding hh > dls-
gulso of clothing , and was lodged behind tbo
prison bais. Ho gives no reason for his rash
net , but will bo called on to-day to coutlde

Hnntn Among Justice * .
The Justices of .the pence In this city fared
pretty well nil around , no far ns Christinas
presents were conc rncd. Justice Burnett
returned from Weeping Water , Xcb. , yester
day morning , where ho spent Sundn.s. Ho
sjmrtcd an elegant pair of gold-bowed glasses
nnd n line gold wntch-chnln. They wjro the
gifts of his Iwo sons-in-law , and the 'squire
observed , \\lth n twinkle of his eye , "I
wouldn't mind It If I had a few more new
sons , but the detico'of It Is the glrltt lire all
gone. I am sorry , but what am I to do { "
The BRE man , to whom the qncMlnn was ad
dressed , was sorry too , but could offer no
suggestions.
As 'Squire Schurz sat In his ofHco yester
day afternoon , the foreman of Kinnk Levin's
cigar factory walked In , and presented him

"What in the world have I ever done to
them I" said the iistonlshcd 'xrnilrc. "Well ,
tell them if I can ever do anything for them
in any way , shape or form , to let me know ,
nnd give thcm'my thanks. " He Immediately
opened the box for his visitors , und took ono
himself , remarking , "If I wait until my boys
find it out , I won't pet n chance for n ulnglo
whiff. " Prom the way they disappeared , It
Is very doubtful whether the "boys" got n
chance to take a single whiff from them.

Ho AVhipped The Boy.
James Keller , an employe at the Union
elevator , was brought before Squire Barnctt
yesterday , on n warrant charging him with
assault and battery. The recipient of the
cast igat ion was Charles Jones , n seventeen-
rear old son of Monroe M. Jones , a Union
Pacific switchman. The boy was making
Himself a nuslancc around the elevator , and
[ Celler ti led to make him desist , but without

The uoihcthief who stole Chris Durr's

count of the shooting of onn Joseph Bolts , a
colored man , in Lincoln , Neb. Bolts was
rtrunk nnd quarrelsome , and an ofliccr at-
emplcd to arrest him. Ho resisted nnd in

ono time Bolts lived in this city. He had two
brothers , David nnd George , the latter living
in Sioux City. David , who lives here , left
for Lincoln yesterday morning. The body
will bo buried hero.
Dcnth of H OlckeiiH Character.
St. Louis Correspondence : The tragic
deatli of C. II. Garrison , who met atieh
an awful end at Webb City , recalls tlio
fact that his first appearance in St.
Louis attracted international attention.
In January , 1842 , Charles Dickens made
his first appearance in America and in
traveling from Cairo to St. Louis by boat
ho mot a little woman and her baby.
That baby was C. R. or "Dick" Garri
son , as ho was familiarly called. Few
of those who gazed on the mangled re
mains guessed that the face had touched
a uhord.ln ono of the greatest * hearts
that eyor throbbed. This is how the in
cident , as Dickens told it , begins :
"Tho 4th , after leading Louisville ,
wo reached St. Louis , and hero I wit
nessed the conclusion of a pleasant inci
dent. There was a little woman on
board with a Httlo baby ; both little
woman and Httlo baby were cheerful ,
good-looking , bright-oycd , nnd fair to
see. The baby was horn in her mother's
house , and she had not seen her hus
band , to whom she was returning , for
twelve months. Well , to be sure , there
was never such a Httlo woman f = o full of
hope and tenderness and love and anx
iety as this litthj woman was , and all
day she wondered if 'ho' ' would be at the
wharf and whether 'ho' had got her let
ter , and whether if she sent the baby
ashore , by somebody clso 'ho' would
know it by meeting it. "
Tlio incident almost fills a chapter in
"American Notes , " and the climax is :
' In the midst of it only hoiivon
knows how bho over got there there
was a little woman clinging with both
arms tight around the neck of a bturdy
young follow , and i "moment afterward
there she was again actually clapping
her hands with joy as she dragged him
to a small door to see the baby as ho lay
asleep. " v
"Ho" and "she"
aru now gray-haired
and grief-stricken. Baby grow to ho a
big man with babies of his own , only to
ho cut down in his prime by n headlong
fall of ICO feet down a zinc mine.
