barber but lately ho got to "rushing the
the growler" and "bucking the wheel"
too frequently. The wheel and the
growler together bowled him out. His

% ever $100. The shop was at on co taken
L > possession of by two other good barbers
$ . and will continue open.

priate uniforms. Thomas Green is re
ported to bo rapidly mastering the mys
teries of the exciting game , and prom
ises to soon become the champion of the

ganized in Omaha , and it is expected
they will soon bo ready to moot our
champions.
1 $ F. II. Hill and P. O. Do Vol , two of
the Council BlufTs delegates to the Den
ver convention , returned homo yester
day. The other members will bo homo
to-morrow evening. They nro having
a splendid time , and taking in the
beautiful scenery. The returned dele
gates say that the convention is u "big
thing , " and that it is exciting moro
attention throughout the country than
was generally believed. There were
ever three hundred delegates from
Toxas. The convention has gene to
work in good earnest , and will doubtless
carry their point.
The Glen avenue paving will bo com
pleted to-day , and the Broadway paving -
, ing to-morrow. This will lliusli E. A.
f.Vickham & Go's contract for the
the present. Their force will then bet

t they have u contract. As soon as the
Bcwor and gas mains on Sixth and Sev
enth streets nro completed , they will
return hero and put down about oighl
thousand yards of cypress paving in that
part of the Fourth ward. The work
already done is strictly llrst-class , and
reflects great credit on this well-known
firm of contractors.
, The rowing rcgntta that was to have
V been hold nt Lake Manawa on or about
i I September 6 has boon given up. Dr.
T Seibert , president of the Council Blufft
rowing association , was interviewed
concerning the matter , and stated that
on account of not wishing to interfere
with the Omaha fair , the projectors ol
the enterprise had given it up , and the
committee that had been appointed U
solicit subscriptions to defray the expenses
ponsos of the regatta has been dis
charged. Thus Council Bluffs has los
another opportunity to udvorttse-her
7' Bolf. As to the regatta interfering it
any way with the Omaha fair , the idci
is absurd. There will be so many peopl <
in Omaha on the 6th of September tha
t > io overflow would'havo made the Man
w regatta a success.-

But little was clouo in court yesterday
morning aside from charging the grand
jury , which Judge Loofbourow did in a
lengthy talk. It was 11:20 : when this
business wiis concluded and the jury in
structed to retire. The ono point of
difllculty which had boon raised and
dibcubscd and taken under ndvibomcnt
by the court was the question of juris
diction of tins grand jury in cases oc
curring in the eastern part of the
county. A law came into effect the 1st
of last July establishing a separate ju
risdiction by a grand jury drawn from
men living in the eastern | Xrlion ) of the
county in connection with the Avoun
court. This grand jury having been
drawn prior to the going into effect of
that law , it was a question if it had a
right to act on account of its including
some members drawn from the eastern
part of the county. The decision of the
udgo was that this jury should act
) ut only in cases brought to its attun-
ion as naving occurred in the western
art of the county or that portion west
f the west line ol range 40. The bovon
urors drawn from the twelve for the
vork of this term are Thomas Leonard ,

In the Police Court.
In the police court this morning Tom
McVickers , W. Hayes , R. McDonald ,
William Payton and Bert Lisbon were
arraigned for having obstructed the
Milwaukee and Rock Island trains last
evening. It seems that these follows ,
who are tramps , got on the train and re
fused to got off until pulled by the po-
, ico. Their cases were continued.
Tom Walker , a Wabash brnkeman ,
was up for being drunk and abusing his
wifo. Tuesday night , it seems , Walker ,
who resides in the western part of the
city , went homo drunk and became very
abusive to his wife , who is Ijing ill with
fever. Mrs. Walker tried to prevail
upon her husband to quit his abuse.
This only encouraged the brute , and ho
liithis wife several blows in the face ,
causing her nose to bleed quito freely.
Neighbors interfered and the follow
was at last quieted. Wednesday even
ing Walker got drunk again , and fear
ing viplencoto his nick wife , the chief
of police was sent for. OHlcor Fowler
was dispatched to the Walker residence
and shortly returned with the wifo-
bcator under his wing. His case was
continued. Walker is now under bonds
to appear before the grand jury for
assaulting n Burlington "scab" with a
coupling pin some time ago.
A tailor giving the name of O'Dennis
was sent to the county jail for thirty
dajs for being drunk. O'Donnis'car
cass is completely saturated with "old
rye , " and ho is on the verge of having
an attack of "snakes. " Probably a
month in jail will do him good.
Charles Phillips , another tailor , was
fined $7.00 for being drunk.
, Joe Mills and Fred Sissons , two Omaha
bootblacks , while passing Biedorman's
clothing btoro on Broadway , nipped two
suits of clothes from racks upon the

Water for Falrmount Park.
Sorou difficulty has been experienced
by the park commissioners in securing
for Fairmount park a supply of water
even with the pumping apparatus and
the cisterns now in use. 'The now lake ,
too , has given some trouble on account
of its having been filled with water be
fore the proper time had come for sc
doing. A now idea has been formed
and a survey has been made with n view
to carrying into effect its plans. From
Tenth avenue at its entrance to the park
on the west it is proposed to attach to
the water main n pipe which will run
up the hill to a point twenty feet above
the bottom of the settling reservoir ,
then pass through the hill a distance ol
150 feet , when it will have a fall ol
thirty feet to the lake.
This plan if carried into effect will in
sure a supply of water in the fountain
without further effort necessary on tlu
part of the commtsplonor * . With n
supply of ice water on the highest point
in the park , the liquid furnished by the
pumping process already established ,
and the proposed supply of water to the
lake below , there can bo no complaint
against the management of the con
cerns of this tnoBt excellent park In its
matter of accommodating features.

Ohordx Upon tlie Organ.
The benefit concert at St. Francis
Xavier's church last evening was very
largely attended. The spacious struc
ture was filled , nearly every seat being
occupied. There had been considerable
curiosity for some time to hear the splen
did new organ , and the curiosity of the
public \\ns gratified and their highest
expectations realized. An organ re
cital can bo little else but dull for the
majority of people , yet the programme
last evening v iifi EO interspersed with
vocal selections that the audience was
well entertained , and remained until
the last number was executed.
The wonderful tones and effects of the
grand instrument were fully brought
out by Mr. W. C. Marshall , organist of
All Saints' . Omaha , Mr. W. J. GratSan ,
organist of St. Paul's , of this city , and
Mr. Hanson , a blind organist , of Boono.
Solos were rendered by the well known
vocalists , Mrs. Fannie Kollogg-Bochort ,
Mrs. M. J. O'Noil and Mr. J. M. Troy-
nor , and u duott by Mrs. Bachort and
Mr. Troynor. The united choirs of the
Catholic and Episcopal churches sang
two selections with pleasing effect. -
The concert was a grand success , and
netted the Catholic ladies several hun
dred dollars. The church will bo con
secrated in a short tinio , and the organ
will then take a prominent place in the
services of the onurch , as high moss
will then bo celebrated. Mucli was ex
pected of the organ , and the hopes
were not misplaced , as the instrument
reflects credit upon the builder , and is
a valuable addition and ornament to
the beautiful church for which it was
built.
