The War at the Poh1.
Election day , although It passed very
quietly , isns a decidedly busy day , and a
great deal of hard work was done by the
political wire lU11015 , The Interest
teeiiietl to center In the Second ward
and the crowd about the polling place
was fully its large as in the three other
wards combined. The voters wore
rushed in faster thuti the clerks could
c'licck their names and there was a line
of from twenty to tlfty men Ii. front of
the window during the wliolo day
isaiting for their turn to vote.
The front doors of the saloons wore
locked yesterday during election , but
tim alley latch strings hung out all day
and wore not hard to finti. The gambi-
ing houses were nil .closed and the
knights of the paste-boards wore busy
at the polling places In the Second ward
setting forth the virtues and urging tIm
claims of the democratic nominees.
The attempt to run D. J. Rockwell for
mayor , despite his stilT refusal and his
declaration that ho would not qualify if
elected , was the subject of much corn-
mont yesterday. The republican organ
declared that his card of declination
was a democratic forgery , and staked
Its reputiLtioli as a reliable ncva Inform-
itut on this charge. The avowal by
Mr. Rockwell that his declination was
genuine and that lie presented a COte
to that organ for publication has hit the
"reliability" of the party organ very
barl.
Mr. Rockwell would have polled a
heavier vote but for this declination ,
and possibly could have overcome the
natural democratic majority.
The hot fight of the day was over
aldermen. There was much scratching
aiid pasting. The fight on the marshal-
ship was warm , especially In the Third
and Fourth wards , whore democrats ,
who felt sore over O'Brien losing the
nomination , schratced Guanella , ILIId
put in his place Cousins , the republican
nominoo.
There was not a fightorother disturbance -
anco at any of the polling 1)laces.
The polls closed at 6 o'clock. The
work of commuting the tickets proceeded
slowly last imight , there being so much
scratching , and the method in vogue of
counting here being very tedious , each
ticket being called otT , name by mmmc ,
instead of the straight being sorted out
and counted together.

Time Union Spy.
A good many of the citlzons , friends
of the Dodge Lighitouards , ckpresscd
their Intention of attending time play of
the Union Spy "to help thu boy out. "
Those who wore at the opera house last
nlghtwill agree that all might well attend -
tend from the more selfish desire to sec
a good thing iveii rendered.Vehl mar-
ited applause frequently awarded , especially -
pecially where sentiments of patriotism
were uttered , showing that after all a
love for country and the old flag exists
under an assumed careless exterior.
DThc flag presentation and the departUre -
Uro of the regiment for the seat of war
was especially well given. There are
still thousands who remember secimig
the bravo young boys in blue marching
from the camp grounds to the depot
singing "The Star Spangled Banner , "
as they tramped along erect and aol-
diorly , and all at once , forgetting dis-
ClllliiO , a blue chad manly form would '
dash from the ranks to throw his arms'
around a white-haired old lady or palo
facedwomnan , holding a little one by
the humid , for what too often
proved a last embrace of
mother or wife and baby , and during
the scene Inst night there were not a
few moist eyes In the house.
Edward hughes , as Fuirmor Marten ,
was a success. He could not well have
boon Improved upon. B. H. Odell , as
Mr. Orr , actedve1l his part , but It was
mmot a popular part. 0. D. Kiplinger ,
who took the part ci the Union Spy ,
wits frequently applauded , and ho deserved -
served it. Little Tommie Keating , as
the little drummer boy who was shot ,
was a general favorite. The ladles all
did well. To-night the house should be
full.

That "Dcstrlk hkule. "
The success of the "destrflc sEnile"
entertainment Is wonderful. There Is
a constant demand for he little punipit-
let giving necessary information to
churchds and others desiring to get up
the entertainment. Mr. J. B. hark-
ness , of this city , who is attending to
the distribution of these pamphlets ,
has received orders from nearly every
state in the union. The pamphlet costs
only a dollar , and the information and
suggestions it contains save so much
labor and time that it is worth much
moro thith that amount to any committee -
tee arranging such an ontt'rtainmmient.
Another commendable feature of time
arrangomnent is that time proceeds from
the sale of-pamphlets arc for the benefit -
fit of the Congregational church of this
city.As
As an instance of how the entertainment -
mont is takin g elsewhere -the following
is taken from a letter just received from
Virginia , Ill. "The destrik skubo' was
immense. Everybody calls It the finest
entertainment we have ever had. Our
little opera house wm crammed. " This
is but one of many. Any committees
being at a loss as to what sort of a home
entertainment to get up , should scud a
dollar to J. H. HarkncssCouncil Bluffs.
There is hardly any expense or labor in
its preparation , and it always draws big
houses. In this city over 600 was
cleared by it in two nights.
Death ofO. H. Morris.
Yesterday morning between the
hours of five and six , Mr. C. H. Morris

Omaha. During the past two years the

E. Smith & Co. , as traveling salesman.
Previous to that time he had been connected -

other firms of this city , and was well

'rhey have boon notified of the death ,
but will not be able to be present. A
sister-in-law living at St. Joseph , Mo. ,
vill arrive to attend the last sad rites.
The body will be buried hero.
Took OfT Their Stars.
During the election yesterday and for
some time previous , Officers Unthank
and Stovomis worked hard for the doe-
tion of tIme republican nominees. Last
evening they tendered their resignations -
tions as members of tlme , police force ,
knowing thatt.helr h ads would soon be
chopped. ofT. ' thogrounds of "elTon-
sive partisnm " . They were two of
time best mm ca the force , but as
they could not swallow the dose
prepared kr them by the "powers
that be , " they found it necessary to
stop gently down and out , and make
way for more humble amid obedient fol-
howors.
Officer Dave Thomas , recently of the
Merchants' police , and Deputy Marshal
George Gutuiefla are filling the vacan-
des for the present. Permanent ap-
poimitmnents will soon be made , and it is
hoped that the new mon may be as effi-
