A number of carcasses of dead horses nro lying Just west of the driving park. The hot weather will soon cause the location to bo easily discovered. Father McMennmy celebrated the nup tials of Mr. Patrick Mown , of Crescent , nnd Miss Hcatrico Carrigg on Wednesday nt St. Francis Xnvicr's church. The meeting of the school board last even ing Was unproductive of any decision In re gard to the adoption of n plan for the new building ns Mr. Unlit wns nut present. The first of n scries of dlinocntcrtninments that wn to huvo taken plnco at the Episco pal church last evening , was postponed on account of the rain until next Monday even ing.Tho The demand for telephonic communication with the now court house Is Increasing rap idly.

Ho wns aged twelve years. Tlio remains will ba taken to his homo In Ofidcn , la. , for interment. Hut a half doren businessmen braved the storm of lust evening to attend the board of trade meeting. The special business for Which the meeting was called will cnmo up for consideration next Tuesday evening. Mr. Carl IClopping and Miss Mnry Gciso wcro united in matrimony Wednesday even ing nt the homo of Conrad Gcise , a brother of the bride. The Hev. Mr. Ulushburg , of the German Lutheran church , oniciatod. Hoffman , who wns arrested at Ncola for stealing M. Lun/cndovfer's horse , nnd for burglarizing IJeckman's harness storu , yes terday was brought before Justice lirlggs. Ho waived examination and was taken buck to Jail in default of bonds , the bail being $ aOUO In each case. Conrad Lau/omlorfcr has had his stolen horse rctutncd from Neola. The animal was bndly used by Hoffman , the thief , who rode it so hard that it dropped from exhaustion. It wns also Injured by being run into a barbed wire fence , but none of the injuries are per manent or very serious. W. J. Chirk , who is charged with bigamy , has returned to the city and has apparently settled his matrimonial troubles , his wife re turning with him , and s"ho and her relatives being now satisfied that the previous Mrs. Clark has no claims upon him. Tlio case will probably bo dismissed. Until the completion of the new parochial residence Father McMenamy will reside at the corner of Eighth avenue and Sixth streets , to which place ho has already moved. The buildings now upon the old church site , on-Pearl street , will bo torn down and the material used in the erection of the new par sonage. Vfi A. Bonn , the new pitcher of the homo club , Is In daily practice , and is throwing n very swift ball. His curves nro most puzzl ing , nnd the friends of the club are enthu 1 siastic over him. To-morrow's game will bo the first time that the boys have an oppor tunity of meeting ono of the league teams , and a more correct idea of their comparative merit can then bo formed. i The evening papers are in n hot fight over the county printing. The Herald has charged the Glebe with ( loitnr the county up for a largo amount , and the Glebe gets buck by saying , "You'ro ' a worse one. " The Glebe presents comparative figures sho'wing that the Herald used to charge the county 30 per cent more than the Globo's present prices on county work. Tables of figures are presented , nnd billingsgate freely used. Georgia Williams , ono of the denizens of the "How , " appeared at public headquarters yesterday morning , nnd swore out a warrant for the arrest of ililly Walters , ono of the i gamblers , charging hitn with assault and Battery. It seems that Walters took offense at the fair Due frail ono on the preceding night , and beat her most unmercifully. An ofllcL-r was sent out to gather him in , but ho was nowhere to bo found , having slipped out for Denver on un early morning train. It is pleasing to note the fact that the new boiler for the canning factory is being mndo hero , Carter & Son having the contract nnd the Iron fronts being cast by Spruguo & Co. , another Council U luffs concern. Such ex amples of encouraging the manufacturing enterprises already established hero shoulO bo followed. Ono citizen who shouts the loudest against Council Uluffs getting a fliO Write up In an Omaha paper has sent cast I after mouldings , etc. , for his now house , re fusing to allow the Council Lilulfs factory to furnish them , though guaranteeing us good work for less money. Under the new organization of the district court thcro is almost a continual session here , and it seems that what little cxcuso thcro was for tlio existence of a superior court Is now done nway with. It is nn ex pensive piece of judicial machinery , and the showing of receipts is by no means pleasing to the taxpayers. Many nro of tlio opinioi that a police court would answer tlio pur pose , and that thcro is not enough other nusi ness to warrant a 12,000 judge , with clerk and other expenses. Tlio district court cat bo readied so easily now that these wanting law can got n trial quick enough. Personal Paragraphs. Alderman Waterman Is able to bo ou pgaln , though not rugged. John Y.

Tlio coming canipniun would bo an exciting one. Thcro would not bo mjch slush. Cleveland has established his reputa- ion for soclnl purity. Ho now stood lit the jiend of social circles.

Ho ilid not wnnt the delegates Instructed for lum. If chosen ho wanted it to bo tlio result of a spontaneous expression. The war cry of the coming campaign was to bo the discn- tlirallmcnt of white slave labor. This was greater than the democ racy , and the party should choose its representative freely. Ho would nt any time gladly give way to any of these bravo men who hud fought for the party for many years. Ho knew ho could rely on the boys here If ho needed them , , nnd did not want them instructed. Both resolutions weie , however , unanimously adopted. - The committee reported the following dele gates : W. It. M. Pusey , Sylvester Dye , J. II. Henry , D. A. Fan-oil , J. M. Wylaiid , U. S.

The visitors were magnificently en tertained , many of them being taken in charge by the resident Odd Follows , while others , who chose to do so , were taken to the Crcston house , where an elegant supper was spread for all.

' , of Omaha , opened n real cstato office in this city and npparantly did a rushing busi ness. Connected with the firm was a young man who was known by all as Mr. Peterson , brother of E. T. Peterson , and the "Co. " of the firm. The firm did n great deal of np- larcnt business hero nnd at Sioux City ns well. At times they had largo sums of : noncy on deposit at nil these various places. During the month of August young Peter son , as ho was known , called ntonoof the : lty banks and asked that his personal check 'ortMJ. drawn on the First National bank , of Sioux City , bo cashed. This was done , the Sioux City bank was notified , but the check was returned protested. It then appeared that the firm had no money , at that time , on deposit there. The cheek was sent to Omaha for collection , but the bank to which it was sent notified the bank hero that E. T. Peter son pronounced the cheek n forgery and would not pay It. The matter has laid quietly until yesterday , when the signer of ho check was in the city , called hctonsn Witness in the Poterson-lludio caso. A war rant for his nricst was sworn out by Justice Schiu-z and an information filed charging him with forgery ami obtaining money under Tnlse pretenses. The Information is against Walstrom , who carried the name of Peter son while heio before. He was taken to Sijuiro Schurz's office , but that ofllciul was not In nnd ho wns tuken to the county jail. A preliminary hearing wns afterward had , nnd the prisoner will have a full hearing to-day. An effort Is being made to sinmro the matter without litigation and with good prospects of success. E. II.

A letter has been received by one of the city councilmen , rcfjucstinp that body to re scind all action taken with rcfcicnco to mov ing the Chicago , Koclc Island & Pacific tracks. Tlio reason assigned for tlio request is that a compromise hns been effected by which the motor line is allowed to cross at Ninth ave nue. General Given is the author of the letter , which makes the statement authentic so far as the action of the railroad is con cerned , Mr. Heed is expected here the first of the coming week , and will bring the two motors which will furnish the locomotive power of the road. All miHonablo question ns to the early opening and operation of the motor line to Mnnnwa is thus removed , in which fact the people will rejoice. What action the city council will take respecting the request of the railroad has not yet been determined , but in view of the many com plications which have arisen , the safe policy will probably bo followed of rescinding no action until the motor line is surely allowed to cross. The council is too cautious to bo coaxed into rescinding its action by the rep resentations of one side of the controversy , Mr. Heed will soon bo at homo , and if ho is satisfied , then the council will probably re scind their action , Grant's Birthday.
