The City .lullor'H firutnllty.
Two well known nnd highly respectable
residents of this city were transacting busi
ness at the city bulldingycstcrday afternoon ,
when they wcro startled by a number of
screams coming from the police station.
They Immediately rushed over there nnd
found the jailor amusing himself by turning
the hose on u couple of little boys who wcro
confined In the "steel roll. " They were half
drowned , and begged pltcously for mercy.
The kind-hearted gentlemen fairly over
flowed with Indignation , and ordered the
burly brute to desist Immediately.
Ho promptly told them to go to h , as
ho knew what his business was.
They Insisted , however , and he stopped the
cruel treatment. The boys were dripping
wet , nnd removed their clothes to wring
them and try to get dry. Although the outer
atmosphere was very warm , It was decidedly
chilly in the dungeon-like hole whcro tno
lads wcro confined , as no sunbeams pene
trated the place. The stone floor was run
ning with water , and the cold Iron shelves
that servo for beds were fairly afloat. The
boys stood in ono corner of the the miserable
place stark naked , shivering nnd trcmullng
with cold.
Finding that they could get no satisfaction
from the jailor , the gentlemen started out to
hunt up the mayor. That oftlcial was found
on Broadway In conversation with Tin : Br.E
reporter , nnd the case was laid before him.
Ho Immediately started for police head
quarters to Investigate the case , The jailor
said that the hoys were unruly , and were
"blackiruai ding" every on who passed the
jail. The marshal remonstrated with them
at noon , and finally took them from the corridor
rider and locked them up in a coll. They
then pounded and kicked the door ,
nnd continued to make a terrible
racket until ho had wet them down to keep
them quiet. The hoys said that tho.v were
not making any trouble after being locked
up , but merely wanted n drink of water , but
wcro told that it was against the court's or
ders for them to hayo any water for twenty-
four hours. The Jailer says ho was busy ,
and told them that ho could not give them
any then. The youngsters wcro undoubt
edly too boisterous , but the jailer had no au
thority to turn the lioso on them. His ex
cuse that ho "didn't ' have time" to get them
a drink when ho went to the door to toll
them to keep still is altogether too thin.
If the jailor had overcome his remarkable
laziness for a few moments It would not have
Injured him seriously. The hose is used on
the prisoners altogether too freely. A "duck-
Ing" is not the same thing to a man outside
in the sun that It is to ono in the cage , where
ho is compelled to shiver for hours before ho
gets dry.
If the conduct of the prisoner meets with
the disapproval of the jailor , a btrcuui of
cold water Is turned on him for 11 vo minutes.
This is obviously wrong , and measures
should bo adopted to prevent Its repetition.
The mayor ordered the two boys taken out
of the cell nnd allowed to dry their clothes In
the sun. The Jailor was also censured for
his brutality and advised not to repent the
experiment. The city jail is always in charge
of the marshal or his deputies , and ho Is re
sponsible for all such actions. Although the
jail Is outside of the direct authority of the
mayor , that ofllclal is to bo commended for
his promptness in investigating the matter
and making himself felt as the city's chief
executive.

Coal Proposal * ! AV tinted.
Scaled proposals will bo received on
or before September 1 , 1888 , at the office
of the superintendent of the Iowa insti
tution for the education of deaf and
dumb , Council Bluffs , In. , for furnishing
said institution with coal for the year ,
commencing September 1 , 1888 , said
coal to bo delivered in the bins of said
institution. Bidders will give the price
on each grade of coal , together with
such recommendations or references as
to quality as they may elect ; a sample
car load of the coal to bo furnished and
a bond for the faithful carrying out of
the terms of the bid will bo required
when the award is mado. Bids should
bo indorsed "proposals for coal" and ad
dressed to the Honorable Board of Trus
tees of the Iowa Institution for the Edu
cation of the Deaf and Dumb. The board

Haloon Men Must Pay.
Since his return from Missouri , Mayoi
Hohrer Is greatly refreshed , nnd proposes tc
wade Into the saloon war with both feet ,
The saloon men have successfully evaded the
payment of ono month's line , and expect tc
do the same with the next one , but the mayoi
will not have it so. The saloomsts went tc
sleep about a month ago , und slumborcc
peacefully until after their lines wcro duo
The mayor was absent , and the city marshal
whoso duty it was to see to the collection 01
the lines , did not possess the necessary nerve
to enforce their payment. In fact , this cxcm
plary (1) ( ) ofllclal maintains that the salooi
men should not bo required to pav a line , ai
the temperance folks "make it hot cnoucl
for them. " In various ways ho wiggles one
twists to avoid the necessity of collecting tin
lines , and now the mayor Is compelled to adi
this work to the already onerous duties o
the chief of police. But this capable ofllcor
whoso work keeps him busy from sixteen t <
twenty hours n day , will attend to tlio matte :
faithfully , and if tno ( flics are not paid tin
saloons will bo closed "too quick. "
Soma of the saloon men nro beginning t <
realize what is coming , nnd nro paying theli
lines to escape the Impending trouble. It i :
Immaterial to the chief of police whether o :
not ho Is summoned ns n witness before tin
district court to testify In a liquor case , hu
the marshal could not stand the "bluff" tha
was made , and the serving of ono subpoem
was all that was necessary to effectuull' '
squelch all of his usefulness , so far us col
looting liquor fines Is concerned.

If Not Dead , Tlioy Are Slceplnc.
There seems to be a general mlsundct
standing among the parties interested a
Like MnnawA regarding the proposed Irc
provomcnts at that place. Each one seem
to think that everyone else Is wultlngforhk
to go ahead and do It all at bis n\vn expense
and this Is why nothing Is being done. W.hc
talked .with Individually , these parties cvinc
a willingness to do their part In tho"mattoi
and there seems to bo no good reason Wh
the work can not be carried out as planne
some lime ago. The committee appointed t
look after the matter Is doing nothing aboi
it at present , and llko the Immortal Mteni
ber , seems to be waiting tor something t
turn UP- . , , . . t
This committee would do very well , bt
each member seems to be afraid that ho wl
do a little more than some of the other
Each ono regards himself as the great cci
trul hinge upon which the whole maty
honps , and seems to be afraid , to move h/C
should drop tUe wrong way and tbrovirupo
ilm the cntird rc'MKJnsiblllty. What Is
icctlcil Is Unit these parties should all coiijo
; o i perfectundcrstnndlng of the situation
ind the requirements In the case , nnd satis
factory means can then bo devised for per
fecting the details for n change. Those
financially Interested lit the lake nro i > cr-
foctly willing to glvo liberally toward mak
ing necessary Improvements , and the work
can bo accomplished without outside
nsslstnnca If gene nbout In the proper man
ner. Benefit days , merchants' subscription
papci.s , etc. , will not secure tliu money , ns
iho ntnount must bo raised by those directly
Interested. Odcll Bros. & Co. have offered
to glvo f. > ( H ) to the lake improvement fund ns
soon as 52,000 Is raised. Manager Heed of
the motor line Is ulso willing to do his part In
the matter , nnd says ho will give whatever
hhall be deemed his share by fair Judges. It
Is % ery possible that this gentleman has been
previously misunderstood , for ho has cer
tainly made several generous offers within
the past week. When approached In regard
to children's day at Manawn , ho promptly
offered to carry all of the children both ways
nnd would not charge them n cent. When
asked for a subscription to the regatta fund ,
ho otTrrcd to give -10 per cent of the gross
earnings of his line for the two days of the
regatta. The children's day plan will bo
carried out , but the regatta scheme has fallen
through , nnd Is as "dead as a door nnil. " It
seems that the committee In charge of the
latter project became discouraged very easily ,
as Mr. Hood's ' subscription would amount to
fJKKl at the very least calculation , and the re
quired amount was only twice that sum.
There nro yet several days to elapse before
the return of the Mississippi Valley Howlng
association from Salt Lake , nnd Tun Bui :
voices the sentiments of many citUcns when
It ndvlsci the regatta committee to rct.ew its
work. All of the Interests of Manawn will
glvo liberally to the fund , as the expenditure
will bring Immcdlatu returns with n largo in
crease. The steamboat men have agreed to
put Iho price ol round trip tickets ncross the
lake on those days down to 10 cents , n is
not expected that the hotel would subscribe
u great deal , ns it is not in n condition to dose
so , although It could glvo n percentage of its
receipts. It Is understood that the hotels of
the city have oflcred to entertain the racing
crews free of expense , in view of the largo
ntlcmlanca from outside that the regatta
would draw to the city. In view of these
facts It seems that the committee has given
up altogether too soon , nnd has shown a la
mentable lack of perseverance. It is not yet
too late to push the affair throuch to u suc
cessful Issue , nnd Tliu Hr.c hopes to see it
done. Although the Improvement scheme is
not dead , still it is soundly sleeping , nnd it is
time that it was awakened. An experienced
engineer has gone over the ground and states
that the work can bo done for 2,500. As be
fore stated the last $500 of tills amount is al
ready raised. The motor line promises lib
eral assistance , ns nlso do the steamers nnd
other Mnnawn interests. Aside from thcso ,
there nro several parties heavily interested
in real estate in the southern part of the city ,
who cannot afford to let the lake disappear ,
and the motor line become n thing of the
past. With all of these yet to hoar from.lt
certainly seems that there should bo no diffi
culty in securing tno necessary amount.

it comes in. Wo don't want to
get into debt over it. By the
time wo move into it , it will lulvo
cost $110,000 for the building nnd ground , and
& 10HK ( ) for the furniture and gymnasium
equipment the latter costing $ , ' ,000. The
ground floor will bo rented , nnd will prob
ably bring In an income of 10,000 per annum ,
and then wo will mnko n push to run the
membership up to 1,003 which will mnko us
float financially easy. "
The reporter looked over the ulto of the
proposed attraction for members , und found
that the second lloor is devoted to the recep
tion room , library , small lecture roomofllces
nnd directors' parlor. The third floor will
contain the largo lecture nnd committee
rooms , the gymnasium and baths. The fourth
lloor will bo given over to the different
classes. Just now , and since the association
nnd to vacate their rooms on Dodge street ,
they hnvo taken u two months1 vacation , but
a meeting of directors will bo held In a few
days , and us far as passible , the work of tie
association will bo resumed.
You can find cool , well furnished
rooms at the Globoiholol , best located
house in Omaha.
UOAOS TO SOUTH OMAHA.
How They nro lleltiu Graded by the
Coiutntssloiiors.
The county commissioners have been look
ing after the grades of some of the roads In
the southern part of the city during this sum
mer und at present a'lHrgo amount of cutting
nnd filling Is going on.
Twentieth street is being graded south
from the end of the city grade to its Intersec
tion with N street nnd Missouri avenuo.
This Is being done to glvo tha people resid
ing cast of South Oinaha an opportunity to
reach South Omaha by Missouri avenue -
nuo and K street , a distance
of one or two miles rather
than bo compelled to como up Thirteenth
street to Vinton street and then down by the
old road.
The country through which these streets
had to bo cut consisted of drains and banks
so steep that some fills from fifty to seventy-
live feet are being made and some deep cuts
also have to bo mado. It Is estimated that
50,000 cubic yards of earth will have to be
moved to make the county's part of the drive
way. Thp remaining portion of the Twen >
tleth street grade Is being made by the cjtj
and the South Omaha land syndicate.
The expense of the street to the county will
bo about f3,500. '
