Pat O'Day ' was fined $3.10 and had ot the wherewith to liquidate the cxpcnso .f his drunk. Henri Schmidt went hack .nto the sweat box in the same condition. Tom Brown nnd Charles Uoss wore held for rial on the charge of disturbing the peace. J. D. Grnbor had an attack of the dizzies , and answered to the roll call. Ho fared no bet- er than the others. Thomas Hyncs was too drunk to know the court was in session and : io was loft to dream of hot Scotch nnd nakes until this morning. Louis Hamilton and C.

The case of Hodefer vs Day was taken up in the district court yesterday morning , and after a short argument submitted to the court , who took It under advisement. The case of Stcelc vs City of Council Bluffs for damages resulting from the extension of Fifth avenue through the bind to Glenn nvo nuo was then called. The city attorney agreed that the city should puy $2 , : X ) , and the court lilled out a verdict to that effect , and the Jury was sent out to sign it. In the afternoon a writ of error case was the only ono for consideration. The papers could not bo found , and It was thought that the case was submitted to Judge Thorncll , who had taken them away with him , The Steele danmgo case goes on record as being disposed of in the least time of any civil case over tried in full process of law. The Jury was empanelled , witnesses exam ined , arguments made , charge given to the Jury , verdict returned and read in open court all in a little less than Uftcenininut.es. The great west still retains its reputation for the rapid administration of Justice. Cases are frequent where criminal trials and exe cutions nave been completed In half an hour , but now a civil case goes through all of the usual wearying details of court , and a suit for uamagcs , which general consumes an un usual amount of time , Is carefully considered and finally disposed of in less than half that time. Pottawattamlo county is certainly entitled to continue nibbling at the prize bun. If any district court in the country can show a bet ter record , now Is the time for it to assort itself , or forever after held its peace. Mixed spices for pickling at Fearon's.

Mnnncrfl and Customs of the Natives In ItrltlHh Honduras. An American gentleman residing in Belize , British Honduras , who attended in ollicial spread , has told mo all about t , writes a" Philadelphia Record cor- cspondent. It was hold in u largo ar- jor , erected for the pui'Done , of wild cane stalks , thatched with straw. As usual , Hi" men retained their hats and imokcd incessantly between and dur ing every course. Tortillas wore con tinually sent in , hot from the griddle made b'y women secreted in a hut borne- where in the rear and piled in nstcam- ing heap in front of the alcadi , who distributed them around with an easy ind graceful shuttle , something as an 3xpert player deals his cards. Now and then fresh water was passed in mugs , it being the fashion for eaeli to lill his mouth , drnw it noisily to and fro between his tooth , then eject it upon the lloor. The menu , as nearly as can bo rendered in English , was as fol lows : CICUlir.TTIIS. Caldo ( broth ) , with garlic , chili nnd cigar ettes , Sopa Stewed in grease and garnished with chili. Cigarettes. Pucharo Stuff of every description , fish , flesh and fowl , seeds , pods , green iruits , roots and vegetables , all boiled together , served ou a huiro platter , with chill sauce. Cigarettes. Chicken stewed with grease and chili. . Cigarettes. Kid's head baked with garlic. Cigarettes. Hed beans stewed in oil. Cigarettes. Sweetmeats nnd coffee with cigarettes. Tortillas all the time. The etiquette of Santo Toribiro ball rooms is peculiar. The ladies sit around the room , their multiplicity of stiff skirts making them look like so many Dutch cheeses , while the men remain outside in groups until the dancing is about to begin. When the lirst strains of the marimbra mourniug and de- , airing as the wail of a lost boul an nounced the opening of the ball , ono of the sandalled and batted gentlemen ad vances to the middle of the lloor , on the way thereto care lessly nodding to the charmer of his choice , and she leaves her seat and goes to face him , standing a few paces distant. Then they pot-form a rapid /.apetoro , scarcely moving the body , though their feet are Hying like mad , for till the world like a pair of jumping jacks , executing all manner of pigeon wings , jigs and double shuf fles. When she gets enough of danc ing she roturus to her scat without so much as an adieu to the gallant , while ho , without stopping for a moment iu the everlasting jig , nods to another lady to come and play Joan to his Darby. lie is expected to keen on , without an instant's pause , until the music ceases , and often it is continued a long lime , as a test to the young man's endurance. It was in British Honduras that I first attended a volori , or the ceremony of watching with a corpse. The family homo consisted of a single long anil narrow apartment , rounded at each cud , with earthen floor , and roof thatched with guano leaves. From the cross poles hung a few hammocks , and in the middle of the room , upon a rude bier made of two boards upheld by casks , lay the dead woman , with a wee infant clasped in her arms. The face of the mother , who could not have boon more than fourteen years old. was calm ami peaceful , but that of the baby was terribly distorted , as if terrified with its brief look on life. Fresh flowers wore scattered upon the scarlet blanket that partially covered the still figures , lighted candles stood at the head and foot , and near by sat the sisters and pa rents of the dead woimuisilent and sad. Inquiring why the husband and father was not ainong the mourners , I was carelessly informed , as though it was nothing to cause remark , that la probaorta ( the poor , dear girl ) had never been wedded , and as for the father quion saboy A great crowd oc cupied the house of mourning , laughing and jesting OH though the occasion was ono of rejoicing rather than sorrow. Many wore playing cards. Outside , under a pomegranate treerefreshments wore spread , and music and uproar resounded - sounded in startling incongruity with the dread mystery of death , ' \Vhon legal marriages occur in this region the parents of the couple make all the arrangements between them selves. The tender passion takes early root in the tropics , and it is not uncommon to sco a bride and g oem both under fourteen years , When the boy wants to got married ho tells his mother all about it. She talks with the father , and if both are willing to accept the girl as their daughter , they rouair to the house of her parents , taking with them a chiquihuito of fowls , fruit , broad , ears of dried corn and strings of poppers. They organi/o a sort of pro cession , com posed of their relatives and friends , headed by a baud of musiothus publicly proclaiming their intention. It is good form for the girf's ' mother to politely refuse the lirst request until she has had time to consult the maiden as to her wishes in the matter , and to find out what her own friends may think of it. Sue sends the procession homo completely in the dark as to the result of its mission. It the answer bo irrevocably unfavorable , she simply sends back to the parents of the wouul- bo lever their basket , with contents un touched. If , on the contrary , she bo in clined to entertain their proposals , in the course of a week or two she sends to them another chiquihuito lilled with similar offerings. To Colored Ilallrnnd Men.

Give us the same chauco with similar treatment and wo would make as good engineers , liremeu , conductors anil brakemun as any white man Uod over inudu. Wo arc discriminated against too rigidly. Something must bo done. Wo may run as fire men for a life time ; wo will never bo promoted meted to the position of engineer. Wo may run as brakemou for a lifetime ; wo will never bo promoted to the position of conductor or anything else bettor than brakomeii. Wo may run as sleep ing-car porters for sixty years and we will never be uromoted to the position of sleeping-car conductors , because it is too easy for us and the , puy is too high for the colored man to receive. We are intrusted with cars both as conductors and porters , better known'as porter-5n- eharge , with the sime' ' authority as ; i conductor , but receive only one-half of a conductor's pay. Why i | it ? I will toll you : The color of our skin is a crime to us and brands us ns-uon-promotublo objects. Now , as to labor organisations , they are very much like becfot ) societies in our free'America ; they all , except the knights of labor , discriminate against us on account of our color. The Brotherhood of Locomotive ! Engineers , the Brotherhood of Loconjotivo Firo- moti , the Brotherhood of Railway Brakemen , the Switchmen' * unionand , J believe the order of Railway Con ductors , all discriminate against the colored man and brother. In their constitution they prohibit us from be coming members. Lot us be as expe rienced , over so intelligent and reli able , our only crime is we are colored. Wo do not blame the high ollicials of the different railroads , but to the con trary we believe they are favorable to our promotion and advancement to well paying positions on account of our faith fulness to those who treat us with consideration. Ono tiling is certain that the members of those different brotherhoods are not iu favor of our promotion or advancement in any respect. I am reasonably certain that the public would bo glad to see colored men treated iu all branches of rail way service as white men lire now trcatedthon they could start on a journey from ono place to another and would not fear any railroad tie-up. Thcro are now engaged in various capacities in the railway service 12,000 colored men , and that is a very low estimate. A vast number of us have served our respective companies for years. Wo have no desire - sire to ask our companies for anything that would hurt their interests to grant , but wo do think that deserving colored railroad mon should bo promoted if found competent , regardless of auy brotherhood. The United Brotherhood of Railway Porters of the United States and Can ada , is now in its second year of oxist- anco. Its aims and objects is to culti vate a bettor understanding with all colored railroad men ( but we do not dis criminate against a man on account of the way God made him ) to promote the interest of those who give our members employment ; to raise a fund to care for our nick and distresi-od members ; to bury our deceased brothers and care for their families when left dependent ; to bettor our condition in whatsoever way is honest , just and right. Wo appeal to the American public on account of right , justice and fair play to condemn all organizations that strive to keep a man in poverty and that dis criminate against him from making an honest living ou account of bis color , as wo all well know that it costs one American laboring man as much to live as another. Wo appeal to the railroads and sleeping car managers to give us the same chance of uromotion as ether mon are givou by them [ and they will have no cause to regret it. ' And ono word to our brotherhoods jwhito ) ; it may bo to 3/0111' / ' respective interests to do away with "none but twouty-ono years of ngij uiftl white are admitted members" injyour constitu tion , or the day may como that you will bo berry for it and gay like Jho Gorman proverb "that procrastination of a good deed has often brought ronoiitonco. " Wo colored mon desire your favors and also your friendship , and I hope , and so does every colored railroad man in America , and if you will'read the hand writing ou the wall you will accept our offer anO do away with color prejudice in your respective organizationswhich are for the elevation of labor , because wo have brain and muscle , and it must bo respected. It may bo quite a while be fore your radicals will heed com mon sense and rouson , but remember - member human slavery existed in America 245 years , and wo are free to-day from being' bought and sold. Wo are American citizonsand laboring men and cannot afford to discriminate against each other. The United Brotherhood of Railway Porters invites all railroad mon to join with thorn. Wo do not be lieve in strikes and know nothing can bo gained by engaging In them but loss which can never bo regained , and a bad feeling engendered between labor and capital. Wo believe it to ho to the best interests of all concerned to work har moniously together , as the interests of one nro the interests of both. Hoping all brotherhoods ill consider and respect us as laboring men , and wo will equviiico them wo are worthyof the Fame. MACK CALmvuht. , Grand Secretary G. U. B. of It. P. JAJIIS : D.
