Satisfied AVIth the Plans.
. .The choice of the plans of Architect Ward
by the school board was rather a surprise to
many , inasmuch as the choice was presumed
to lay between these submitted by Messrs.
Allen Is Boll and Mr. Maxon. In conversa
tion yesterday , a member of the board said
" that Mr. Ward presented his plans with
others , but did not urge their adoption. In
fuct , he was so modest about tlio matter that
the plans wcro not Riven a thorough and
careful Inspection. Ho had not noticed the
many excellent points which the plans pin-
brnccd until the dead-lock had gouo to that
point whcro some dcllnito notion.was neces
sary to bo taltcn at once in order to hava the
building erected this year. The board ex
press themselves as being well suited with
the plans , and that when completed tlio
building will bo both beautiful nnd imposing.

A Stnrry Constellation.
Yesterday was the tlmo set for the annual
meeting of the state association of city mar
shals and chiefs of police , to bo held in this
city , ana it was expected that the various
cities and towns of the state would bo well
represented , but the stormy weather pre
vented the arrival of many of the delegates ,
nnd for this reason the meeting that was to
have been held nt 10 o'clock wan postponed
until to-day , nnd these who did arrive were
shown about the city by Mayor Hohrcr and
Chief of Pollco Lucas. Tlio visitors were
Phil II. Francis of Cedar Rapids , president
of the association ; P. N. VnnTasscl , India-
nola ; William J. Hay , Chicago , chief of the
Rock Island detective force ; t'lnlC. Holland ,
Cedar Rapids ; J. N. Shoup , Maxwell ; and
L. . G. Allen of Oskaloosa. Tlio guests
Arcro shown through the now court
liouso , nnd the rooms of the Busi
ness Men's club , after which the
party dined at the Pacific house. Carriages
wcro ordered and the hospital of the Wo
man's Chrlstain association" was visited.
The ladles had extended an invitation to the
members of the city council to visit the
building , but owing to the inclemency of the
weather it was deemed advisable to postpone
the visit until some future tlmo. The party
examined the entire building and expressed
themselves as well pleased with the arrange
ments , nnd left a substantial token of their
appreciation In the shape of a liberal sum of
money for the purchase of an easy chair , , for
which the ladles in charge are very thank
ful.
ful.Rev. . T. J. Mackay , who was with the
party , then invited them to visit his church ,
which invitation was gladly accepted , and
the guests were shown through tnat beau
tiful edlflco. From there the party drove
through the city , stopping on the way to In
spect the different llro buildings.
A fine blrdsoyo view of the city was obtained
from the bluffs near Falrview cemetery , and
also from Fairmount park. The visitors ex
pressed the greatest surprise at the steady
growtlt that , this city is experiencing , and
from one polntof observation counted nearly
one hundred now buildings in course of
erection.
Mayor Rohror was highly complimented
for his frco hospitality , and the visitors found
nothing to criticize with the exception of the
mud. Last evening several other members
of the association arrived in the city , and a
number will come to-day. The meeting will
bo held nt the now court liouso to-day.
Mr. Holland brought with him a largo ns-
iortmentof samples of police equipments ,
: md It is probable that the authorities here
will find something in the lot that will fill
; ho bill in fitting up the city's police force. It
s probable that the date of the meetings will
bo changed in the future. Heretofore it has
always been held on the second Tuesday in
May , but the ualo has given much dissatis
faction. It Is probable that the next mcet-
ng will bo held at Oskaloosa , or somewhere
! n that vicinity.

Kane.
Jim Kane had n hearing yesterday for as
saulting Mrs. Murphy , an estimable lady
who lives on lower Broadway. A short time
ago Kane got into some other difficulty , nnd
10 claimed that Mrs. Murphy was largely in
strumental in having him arrested. Ho went
to her house and begun abusing her with his
tongue , which so nrousqd her righteous in
dignation that she attc&ptcd to drive him
away with a broom. Ho then hit her , and
she had him arrested for the assault. After
a hearing yesterday Kane was allowed to go
on the promise that ho would not disturb
Mrs. Murphy any more. Mrs. Murphy claims
that she has befriended the Kane familywho
nro newcomers , and that the neighbors
joined in helping them to the nccticd com-
Torts of life , they being short of many of
them. While Kane was in jail on the former
charge a dog was left locked up in his house ,
and the key being at Mrs. Murphy's she
went to his house with a neighbor , and un
locking the door let the animal out to pre
vent it from starving to death while there
was no ono to earo for him. Knno mndo use
of this incident to charge Mrs. Murphy with
going through his house , n charge which the
worthy lady tnkes greatly to heart , ns she
has lived hero many years and has always
been respected nnd trusted. Knno Is making
a bad record for himself for a now citizen ,
and will probably not escape so easily if he
again indulges in such disorderly conduct.

RAILROAD MATTERS.
Engineers Incompetcnoy Amlerson'
Union Paclllo Bill Spikes.
During the months of April and May the
board of warehouse and railway commhv
sloners of Illinois , at the urgent request ol
citizens of Aurora and [ other cities , have
boon taking tcstimonyTCgardlng the cause ol
the numerous wrecks and accidents on the
Chicago , Burlington & Quincy linos. The
competency , nnd general character of the oil'
glncors lias also been called in question
While the Ansociatcd press has sent out brio !
notices of the meeting , the greater portion ol
the matter was , it is alleged , quictlj
"squelched" In Chicago.
A gentleman from Aurora , who has a com.
ploto copy of a stenographic report of the
testimony taken , furnishes the following
concerning ono Hose DoWitt , a passenger
engineer : , ,
Seven witnesses who were not nil cngi
Beers formerly in the Burlington's cmploi
wore examined. The llrst stated that DC
Witt was an habitual drunkard , nnd that al
Pullman , where ho resides , the saloonkeeper !
hud boon by his wlfo forbidden to sell liquoi
to him , The witness stated that ho had sel
dom seen him sober. A gentleman formerly
on the local examining board of the Chlcagc
division of the Chicago , Burlington & Quint1 }
stated that Do Witt was discharged from tin
employ of the company for being implicated
in u wreck at Naperville , and that ho had al
ways been a hard drinker ; that ho had re
fused him rides over the road because ho was
so drunk ho was dangerous to hnvo around :
that for thrco years no was out of a job because
cause of his habits , and yet was given a situ
atlou when the strike began.
Concerning the engineer , Gray , who rar
into a train on the Pittsburg , Fort Wayne A
Chicago crossing , it was proven that Graj
was u drunkard , and that since he was glvei
an engine this last tiuio ho had been drunk
The "Q. " management discharged him fo ;
causing a wreck ut Streator , 111. , a year or E <
ago. *
George Rogers , who runs engine 203 , was
formerly itUdiarged from the Milwaukee foi
drunkenness nnd unreliability as was proven
Engineer Stiuimls1 jou testlflcd before tin
board that ho had seen hla father take i
train out of Gulesburg when ho was drunk
In fact , so full that ho was trying to get hiii
home. Samrnis admitted that saloon keoixir
had been forbidden to sell him liquors. Th
testimony- now being taken will. It Is said , b
In book form and. 'distributed by
fublishcd the striking engineers. It is pos
sible that it will bo offered fortho consider
ation of the Intcr-stato commerce commis
sion.
"Everything Is running smoothly. "
'
Representative Anderson , of Kansas , is
trying to Immortalize himself by solving the
Union Pacific problem , nnd to that end has
introduced a bill In congress which provides
for the government taking possession of the
Union Pacific road , including its branches ,
depots nnd grounds , but not the rolling stock.
Then Mr. Anderson proposes to declare the
road a public highway and leave it open for
nil companies and persons to run freight
trains upon subject , of bourse , to n system of
tolls nnd regulations established by its
owners , the people. Passenger trains nro to
bo let to the highest bidder nt a maximum
rate o fare which is never to bo exceeded.
Passes nro to bo prohibited and n newspaper
man wishing to take n trip over Its line must
walk , What will become of the bill Is at
present unforsccn ,
Wll.t. HUN SUNDAY T1UIKS.
The good people of Milford recently filed n
petition with Mr. Eustls , general passenger
agent of the B. & M. asking him to prohibit
Sunday excursions to tholr quiet hamlet by
refusing to let the excursionists have cars.
The document alleges that the parties who
come there to visit arc a drunken , noisy ,
blasphemous set , etc. Mr. Eustis slept over
the matter and decided that the right of pe
tition was a divine ono and ttmt the longer
petition represented the majority. There
fore , in accordance with the prevailing cus
tom of this country when n largo number of
people petition for n Sunday train they will
get it. tlio Milford people to the contrary ,
notwithstanding ,
VESTI11UI.E TIUINS.
It is rumored that the B. & M. nro about
to purchase vestibule trains to tcko the place
of Its Dyers between Chicago and Denver ,
but ns yet It is nothing but rumor.
A CHANOn OF TIMH.
On May 15 a change in tlio time of the B.
&M. passenger trains will occur. Tram No.
1 willmnko two stops only between Red
Cloud nnd Oxford. Train No. 3 will nrrivo
at Denver ono hour and a half later than nt
p resent.
TUG ATCltlSON nOAD.
A rumor from Boston that the Atchlson ,
Topeka & Santa Fo has bought tlio St. Louis
& San Francisco is exciting some interest in
railroad circles at present. While some
doubt , and others believe the truth of the
statement , the recent action of the Atchlson
management goes far toward confirming it.
Tlio St. Joseph & St. Louis line is now oper
ated by the Atchlson , and as the St. Louis &
San Francisco is a competitor of the Snnta
Fo line it would of course bo a plum. Fur
ther developments nro awaited.
A UTAH EXCUllSION.
On Juno 0 the B. & M. will run a grand ex
cursion to ( Utah , the rate from Missouri
river points being & 10. Proportionately lower
rates in comparison to regular fnro will bo
made from points further eastward. The
cgular faro from Missouri river points nt
ircscnt is ? 47.50. This reduction is made in
rdcr to co-operate with the board of trade
f Salt Lake City , who will advertise the ex-
ursion very thoroughly. It will , without
; oubt , bo extensively patronized.

Mr. Scott , or "Scotty , " as ho is familiarly
called , chief clerk in the passenger depart-
nent of the Union Paclllc , left yesterday
morning with Colonel Reed , gen
eral agent , for a trip westward.
During his absence Mr. II. T. Green ,
chief rate clerk , will occupy the position of
chief clerk in the passenger department , and
will accommodate i all calls from reporters
: o seekers after passes with that characteris
tic urbanity for which he is so justly cole-
jrated.
J. B. Johnson , assistant general freight
agent of the Union Pacific , left yesterday on
the "flyer" for n western trip.
Owing to n washout on the Missouri Pacific
the passenger trains on that road nro using
the Union Pacific track and are receiving
and unloading passengers nt the latter depot.
The St. Paul & Omaha officials complain
of tramps who infest their yards and break
open their freight cars and use them for
sleeping apartments. A policeman would bo
a valuable fixture in the St. Paul yard.
MU. BARCLAY'S BONANZA.
The Genial Pension Agent Not Quite
Heady to liivrstills $75.OOO Prize.
Pittsburg ( Pa. ) Dispatch , April 29th :
In view of the fact that numerous in
credulous inquiriesnml communications
have been received in Pittsburg concerning -
corning the truth of the good fortune of
Mr.V. . II. Barclay , the well known
pension agentfor the districtof Western
Pennsylvania , in being the recipient of
one-half of the capital prize at the April
drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery ,
which was drawn by ticket No. 12f > 15 , a
Dispatch reporter visited the gentle
man , at his oillco on Third avenue yes
terday afternoon.
Mr. Barclay looked prosperously
happy , and was perfectly willing to reassert -
assort the truth of the statement. Ho
said : "I purchased one-half of ticket
No. 12,015 at Washington , D C. , on the
morning of the day the drawing took
place , April 10. I was notified on the
following Wednesday that that num
ber had drawn the capital prize. 1
never entertained the least doubt of got-
ing the money , and consequently was
not surprised when , on the 24th of this
month , I received notice that $75,025
had boon deposited to my credit in the
First National Bank of this city. The
Iful amount was there , without an iota
of discount. "
Mr. Barclay takes his good fortune
very modestly. Ho says the receipt of
the windfall was not attended by a par
ticular sensation of elation ; neverthe
less his demeanor is not that of ono who
has mot with a financial loss. The genial
gentleman will continue to look after
the wants of the old soldiers as hereto
fore. Ho is in daily receipt of advice
nnd propositions from these who tire
blessed with little of this world's goods ,
and all anxious to get more , as to the
best way of disposing of his newly got
ten wealth ; hut ho is taking his leisure
in the matter of looking out for a safe
investment. This is not the llrst piece
of good fortune that lias fallen to Mr.
Barclay , ho having drawn $1,000 in the
game institution at the Juno drawing in
1880.
