day afternoon to adjust a misunder
standing between a lad and another
person who were concerned in a shoo
deal.
Marriage licenses wore issued yesterday -
day to George T. Davis and Lizzie M.
Davis , of this county ; Vincent L. Wat-
Bon and Josephine Kno.x , of this county ,
and John Nelson and Anna C. Borg-
quist , of Om'hn.
Frank White , alias Gcorgo Grayblll ,
was bound over to the grand jury yes
terday afternoon by Snuiro Biggs fop
attempting to toll ono of Dohany'a liv
ery teams. Ho was not able to furnish
the necessary 1(1,000 ( , , and was locked up.
The funeral of the infant son of Mr.
and Mrs. E. B. Lamar took place at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon from the
residence , 214 Stutsmnn stceot. The
follow clerks of Mr. Lamar , at Eiso-
man's store , testified their sympathy by
bonding a very elaborate floral piece ,
"Tho Gates Ajar. "
J. R. Sovereign , union labor candi
date for the Ninth congressional dis
trict , will address laborers and citizens
at the electric light tower at the inter
section of Fourth street and Broadway ,
at 8 o'clock this evening , in the interest
of the masses as against the classes.
The paving of Harrison street has
progressed to the intersection with
Washington avenue. Because the cast
ings for the storm sewers wore not com
pleted the whole paving force wore
taken off last evening and put to work
on Glen avenue. But a few hours are
needed to complete the above intersec
tion when the iron work is done.
Ira Hilbert , a teamster employed on
the Eighth street grading , swore out a
warront yostordayfor the nrrestof John
Doe , the foreman of the work , for as
sault and battery. It seems that Hil
bert was drunk , and the boss ordered
him to put up his team , emphasizing the
command with a blow in the face. Hilbert -
bert objected to the treatment , and in-
vokcd the aid of the law. The man was
found , and a timb for hearing of the
case sot for this morning.
The residence of Dr. Cady , in Streots-
villo , was burglarized Saturday oven-
ing. Entrance was effected through a
rear window. The doctor's pants , con
taining about $15 , wore taken out into
the yard and the pockets emptied. The
burglar contented himself with that , as
nothing else was missed. This is
the lirst burglary in the city
for some time , but it proves that the
race of nocWurnal prowlers is not yet
extinct. There is no clue to the thief.
The funeral of Mary Hall took place
yesterday afternoon at the institution
for the donf and dumb. The deceased
was employed as a domestic at the in
stitution during the summer vacation.
She was troubled with heart disease ,
and died at the Cottage hospital , where
she was being treated. Her parents re
side at Ccntcrvillo , la. , and wore- noti
fied of her death. She was twonty-threo
years of ago , and was formerly a pupil
at the institution.
, Charley Heinslor has moved his bar-
'bor shop'up stairs , and will btart a lunch
room and chop house in his former loca
tion. The gambling room that occu
pied the second floor has boon moved to
the back room , down stairs. The gam
bling fraternity is taking advantage of
the mayor's inuUToronco in the matter ,
and is pushing forward its interests , re
gardless of public opinion. The state
ments made by the saloon organs to the
effect that the gamblers would rather
bo located on the second floor to es
cape the surveillance of the police ,
BconiB altogether unwarranted , in view
of existing facts.
The publio schools of the city will
open for the fall term next Monday
morning. The first and second grade
pupils of the Mill sub-district will at
tend'at the Lindsoy building on North
Main street , and the third and fourth
grades at the Hill school , until the new
building is completed. There will bo
no examination until Monday and Tues
day of next week. There will bo a
teachers' mooting at 0 o'clock sharp
Saturday morning at the Bloomer
school , when the suuorintondont will
assign teachers to their respective
grades.
There was a narrow escape from a serious -
rious collision on the motor line , Sunday
evening , owing to the incompetence of
a now engineer. The now man did not
stop at the Twenty-second street siding
to allow the other train to pass , but kept
on to Ray's landing , where a collision
was barely averted , by the presence ol
mind and quick actions of the engineer
on the north bound motor. Manager
Rood is in duty bound to provide care
ful and competent men to run his cars ,
and to protect the lives and limbs of his
uutrons. Incompetent men can bo he-
cured for small pay , but the publio in
terest is not in the manager's pocket-
book.

Lake Manawa is rapidly gaining for

The citizens view this condition of
things with genuine concern , for il has

What's the matter with the Manawu
improvement committee ? Several weeks
ngo a number of gentlemen , financially
interested in the success of the lake ,
wore appointed to solicit funds for im
proving the same * and to make pro
visions for maintaining the water at a
suitable depth. There was a little
ilourish and hustle for a few days , about
$400 was raised and then a "benefit
day" scheme was pushed through to a
disastrous termination. Since that
time nothing has boon heard or done
about fixing up the lake. The commit
tee has evidently gone to sleep over the
matter.
Other interested parties ara con
stantly demanding what Is to be the re
sult , but can got no satisfactory answer.
Nearly $000 has bocn subscribed to improve -
provo the lake and then the whole matter -
tor has boon allowed to drop.
A short tlmo ngo Mr. S. P. McConnell -
nell , chairman of the committee , loft
for Arkansas , and tbo other members
then said , "Wo can't do anything until
ho gets back. " Alter his return there
was nothing done , and Mr. McConuoll
now bays that ho has resigned and has
nothing to do with the matter. The
others are ready and willing to go
ahead "as teen as the rest
of the follows como to time , "
hut each ono pays ho does
not nroposo to do the work alone
and at his own expense. In this man
ner the proposed improvement cchoino
is dragging along , and it is not at all
stratiRO thai people are Rotting dis
gusted. There Is no doubt that the
work will bo done , as there is too much
capital intcrostod in the lake to allow
tlio lake to dry up. and it is strange
that the interested parties do not got to
work at oneo and comnlete it. HO as to
got sbiuo returns from it. The Manawa
motor line , hotel , stca'jiers , bath houses ,
restaurants , Athlotio park , etc. . repre
senting an outlay of nearly $1HMH ( ) ) , are
all directly dependent on the lake for
patronage , ana \\ouldbe practically val-
uclbs if that little body of water was allowed -
lowed to cscatie. These enterprises
alone can afford to expend the required
amount in fact , they cannot afford to
let the opportunity pass without improv
ing the lake. If the work is not done
this fall the lake will not amount to
much next year , and if it is not done
next year it will not be done at all , as
the lake will then be filled with mud
from Mosquito erook. Tlio work should
be done in llio latter part of September ,
as the water will then bo low and the
ground will be in good condition to
work.
The dam would have ample limo to
settle before free/ing weather , and the
high water of next spring would not af
fect il. If properly fixed up and con
trolled , Manawa would bo a grand good
tiling for this oity , and to interested
private parties as well. Tn its present
condition it is very uns-atisfactory to all
parties concerned , and is paying but
binall , if any , returns to parties trying
to do business there. It may as well bo
understood that the "dear people" do
not intend to improve this lake for llio
benefit of private individuals.

.Chicago Tribunpi Out from the drifl-

and a girl. Tho'latlor's head was cov
ered with an oldJbrown shawl. Her
dress was tailored and her feet were
bare. She carried a tiny tin cup in her
hand. She did nol look to bo more
lhan half a dozen summers old. The
boy , lee , was barefoot. His lltllo coat
was short and worn. There wcro
patches on his pants , and his old slouch
hat had been worn so long its band was
gone and tbo shape changed to thai of
a big bell. Ho carried an accordion.
"What shall wo give thorn , lilllo

ho smiled and Ihen surveyed llio windows
dews of Iho lall brown slono build
ing , Ihrough whose heavy graling or
closed curtains there came no sign
of life. "Golden Stairs , " Bho answered.
The crowd jostled along still unmind

clear her brow of u tantalizing curl ,
and , lookingfto the height of tbo tall ,
cold house , began to sing. Some colored
boys across the slroot ran over lo her.

When she reached the chorus nicKlcs
and dimes hciran to fall from the win-
down. An old woman came out from a
basement and gathered them up for the
little songstress. When Cathla had re
ceived them in her tiny cup she ceased
to bing. "Looka" do money , Ccstius , "
she bald. She poured it into his pocket ,
put her tin cup beneath her shawl and
went away. The crowd dispersed.

Popular Science Monthly : It goes
without sajing that everyone will prob
ably have a hint { though often only a
slight one ) as to the sensory bent of his
appcreoplivc processes , especially any
olio engaged in mental labor. If ho in
si "vibionairo" ho will have noted how
much belter ho remembers what ho
roads than what ho hears ; that ho often
remembers Iho position of a word on a
page ; will , perhaps , have a good mem-
orv for forms and faces : will lind that
he can easily read vvhilo talking is
going on ; that ho readily gets absorbed
when his oyo'is occupied ; and so on in a
hundred ways. The "nuditairo" will
note that a lecture impresses him more
deeply than a review article ; that ho
imagines the sounds of the words as ho
reads or writes ( and is usually thus a
blow reader ) : that ho repeats aloud
what he has written , to judge
of its effects ho wants to
know how "it sounds" even
when it is only to be read ; ho observes
harsh sound-combinalionH in style ( the
"vissionairo" observes misprints ) ; talk
ing easily disturbs him when reading or
writing'his attention being involun
tarily drawn to the conversation ; ho
may have a gooU memory for tunes , and
so on. Those who approach the motor
or the indifferent typo will have greater
difficulty in discerning this by hap
hazard observation. ' The above are , ot
course , only general descriptions ; they
will bo variously modified in individual
cases , but will retain a typical appear
ance throughout. Enough has boon
said to indicate the diversity of various
minds in these respects , and thdiim-
portanco of recognizing and studying
these distinctions , alike for their edu
cational utili/ation and as a contribu
tion to u scientific psychology.
A Painful Discovery.
Merchant Traveler : "So you are
married. " said ono Chicago traveling'
man to another. "Well , I'm sure I
wish you much joy. "
"Don't speak of it , old fellow don't
"What's" the trouble ? Hasn't it
turned out all right ? "
"I've made an extremely painful dis
covery. 1 have been married a whole
year before I know anything about it. "
"And what ilia you discover ? "
"I found that she was dead against
divorce. "
