Chemicals va nods.
The matter of building a , now hose house In
the western part of the city Is dragglnc along ,
nnd beyond the notion of the council In grant *
hit , ' the petition of the residents of thut lo
cality , nothing has boon done. Even the lo
cation 1ms not been definitely determined , us
the council Is wn'itlng forsomo publicspirltud
cltl7on loilotmto n lot for the purpose. Al
though no definite action hus been taken , It
Is tactlly understood by the members of the
council that whatever new apparatus is pur
chased shall not mcludo n chemical engine.
It Is intended to purchase another double
hose reel. It Is agreed by them that hose
reels are good under all circumstances , but
that a chemical is of no account except In a
little blnzc. Tlicru has not been n lire in this
city for the p.ist three years that a chemical
engine would not liavo extinguished easily ,
without assistance , when reached by the de
partment. The city is nlrcadv well supplied
with reels , much better In fact than it is
with Ilro hydrants. Tor this reason n chemi
cal engine is desired by many of the citi/ens.
who nrguo that It would bo of untold
benefit In case of a fire in these narts of the
city where the water supply is not of the
best. In these cases the reels nro entirely
useless , and the department powerless , us
1ms been demonstrated several times within
the past year , especially In the vicinity of
"Happ's place , " In the southeastern part of
the city.
It is probable that n petition will bo cir
culated In n day or two aslting the council to
purchase n two-horse chemical instead of the
proposed reel. The council Is not exerting
itself to carry the matter through to prompt
completion. It is probably not their inten
tion to make the changes this reason , us It
will require two months to complete a reel ,
oven if they eventually dccido to order one.
In the meanwhile the citizens nro smothering
their Impatience as best they may , over the
dilatory motions of this august body.

Children Cruelly Deserted.
Two children were heartlessly abandoned
at the transfer Monday evening , and no clue
to their identity has yet been secured , .lust
before it was time for the Sioux City express
to leave , at 7 o'clock , a woman boarded the
train with the children nnd loft them In one
of the scats , telling u woman in the next seat
that she was sending them to their grand
mother , and then left the train , shortly after
ward stepping aboard the Hock Island train
and leaving for the cast. The lady ad
dressed supposed that the children were m
caio of the conductor and took no further no
tice of them , until Conductor Ilamling in
goni through the train after they left the
local depot , nslteu if they belonged to her.
A bundle was found by the side of the chil
dren , who wore then asleep , on which was
pinned the following note : "Please leave
children nt Dakota City , Dakota county ,
Neb. May nnd IrvioBio.vhill. " They were
taken to Sioux City and kept at n hotel at the
expense of tlio conductor until yesterday
morning , when they were brouirht bacl : to
this city nnd placed in charge of Hrakomnn
Lopcr , who removed them to his lioaio
nt. 110(1 ( Fifth avenue , where they now are.
The children nro very bright nnd intelligent ,
nnd three nnd llvo years of age , the girl being
the older. She says their mother is dead ,
and that her father is at Ucnklcman , Neb.
Their clothes nro marked "Croto. " A tele
gram was sent to Dakota City , but no information
mation could bo given. The little girl said
that the baby was given to an aunt , but noth
ing clso could bo learned from her. It is
hoped that this article will meet the eye of
some ono who can give some information
concerning them.

Honor AinoiiK Doctors.
That Council Bluffs is possessed of medical
ability equal to that fonnd anywhere is evi
denced in the positions of honor In the vari
ous associations filled by the local doctors.
Last year Dr. Hanchett was vice president
of the Stats Ilcir.ccpathla association nnd
this year Dr. Mncrao was elected to a SJnii-
lur position in the allopathic body.
\t a meeting of the State Veterinary asso
ciation , recently held at Ames , In. , Dr. S.
Stewart of this city was elected president
of that organization for the ensuing year.
Speaking of the meeting of this body , the
State Kesjistor contains the following :
"The fact thut so largo n percentage of the
comparatively few regularly graduated vet
erinarians of the state are sufllciently enthu
siastic in this work to devote their time and
energy to the keeping up of such an organi
zation augurs well not only for the advance
ment of veterinary science , but also for the
vast llvo stock interests of our state. Owing
to lack of numbers , as well as interest , con
siderable diniculty was nt fltst experienced
in effecting a thorough organization , but now
all seem fully convinced of the immense
practical bcnollt to bo derived therefrom ,
and the result is a strong and thorough or
ganization , which includes nearly every
graduated veterinary surgeon in Iowa. "
The next meeting of the association will beheld
hold at Dos Moincs at a date to bo hereafter
announced by the president.

To the Editor of Tun Br.n : Whereas , the
city marshal has taken it upon himself to cn-
'oree the ordinance in relation to awnings , it

WILLIAM STEINWAY.
The Reasons of His lengthened Stay
in Uurope 10\plniiicil.
American Musician : A prominent
German citizen , speaking of the nomi
nation of William Steinwn.v for mayor
by General Horatio C. King in the Her
ald a few days ago , said :
"I do not think William Steinway
would accept the nomination for the
mayoralty oven if it wcro tendered by
the united democracies , which would
bo tantamount to election.
You see it would cost him , directly
and indirectly , at leiibt $100,000. Be
sides , it would take him away from his
business too much and his other larjjo
interests. The political and social gain
would bo out of all proportion to the
cost.
cost.You
You must not forget that William
Stoimvay's personality is much more in
volved in the conduct of his buiiness ,
and is much more necessary to its suc
cess than Mayor Hewitt's personality is
necessary to the successful conduct of
his business.
"No , sir ! If William Steinway goes
jnto politics and adds to his already
inun6"nsc cares , ho will do so for a much
larger btako than the mayoralty !
"Ho is a millionaire and he turns high.
it"ljersonally I think ho has two ambi-
lons. The first : To bwallow al 1 his
cading competitors in the piano busi
ness , or to reduce them to a position
whcro they cannot bo dangerous for the
next htrlf century , The second : To be
come governor of the state of New
Yot-kl
"People will naturally ask why , if I
am correct in my views , Mr. Steinway
resigned his position on the democratic
committee , went to Europe and re
mained there during &o important a po
litical juncture as the present ?
"Tho answer is an easy ono Mr.
Sloinway is a very shrewd man. IIo
knows , to bo elected to any important
ollico , that ho must have the German
vote solid. Now the majority of tlio
Germans are protectionists , and Mr.
Steinway is somewhat on the fence in
this tariff question , and doo- > not want ,
in view of his future political prospects ,
to commit himself to either bide.
' 'Furthermore , ho had no sooner ac
cepted the position on the democratic
committee , than all the democratic
political clubs and heelers in town
'struck him for boodlo.1
"I hear , on good authority , that it
coat him over $5,000 before ho 'weak
ened' and transferred his political ollico
to Hermann Oolrichs.
"Theso 'Btrikors. ' are the curse of the
politics of this country , and no wonder
a refutable merchant or manufacturer
hesitates to enter into a conflict where
ho is nt their mercy.
"Why , Steinway could not leave his
liouso in Gramorcy Park without &tumb-
ling over a delegation of the O'lloolihan
Chowder club v/lth an invitation
to bo their president at their
forthcoming 'blowout' at 8100 down ,
or the Pat RulTorty veterans ,
who wanted to innko him n member
for $200 down. As ho walked to his
olHco along University place ho was In
tercepted by members of the Mike Donovan
evan coterie , who urged him to buy 100
tickets for their ball in order to secure
tho'dcestrict1 in future , while ho found
his ollico crowded with Tammany heel
ers nnd other democratic lights , each
ono 'widnschomo'or apian. No wonder
ho got tired and passed over his mantle
to Herman Oolrichs , who is an athlete
and can fight If ho does not wish to pay ,

Clnnn the Horso's Skin.
Rural Now Yorker : It is not enough
that the groom should merely clean on"
the dry deposits that remain from the
bwcatinir process through which tlio
hor.io may have gone. This , it is true ,
removes the apparent foulness , but it is
far from meeting the work that conies
under the head of "groominir. " There
is no real way in which ono can do tlio
liorbO more real service in the way of
keeping him healthy than by washing
his bkin with water as hot as the hand
can bear. Whether thib is done im
mediately after a drive'when ' , the horse
is prcspiring frcclv. or Whdri at rest and
the skin is perfectly dry a large blanket
hhould bo provided' cpyei1 the animal
and keep it covered during the process
of washing , keeping it on the shoulders
while washing the hiud quarters , and
vice versa.
Provide yourself with a large spoil go
and a good piece of so.ip ( or , itibtead of
this , an ounce of aquaamiiionia. Put
this into a quart of water if | it bo of the
highest btrongth , and into a pint if it
be of low grade , and. after ' moistening
tlio hair and skin wit } * iho hot water ,
with a small hpongc nib the surface
over with the ammonia water , seeing
to it that it reaches the skin. Then
wash the hide and hair thoroughly ,
scraping the water out ot the hair with
a wooden or other scraper having a
thin , binooth edge. Hub dry with a
woolen cloth and cover with a dry
blanket , keeping the horse out of a
current of air , if this bo cold. Bo es
pecially careful if tlio horse ia ex
hausted by having had a hard drive.
Merely cleaning the dried bwcatfrom
the hair of a horse is a small item in
the process of thorough grooming and
cleaning. It should be remembered
that it is the skin , and not the hair ,
that carries on the process of eliminat
ing bueli secretions as the body requires
relief from ; that is , such us escape
through the pores of the skin. The in
testinal tract and the kidneys and blad
der present but a limited surface for the
elimination of refuse from the body , as
compared with the skin , yet , when a
horse gets sick how ready men are to
bay , "givo him a physic' " salts or aloes
or "give him a diurotio" niter or
pumpkin seed tea. An ounce of preven
tion is , as often stated , worth a pound of
cure , and if , in conjunction with care
in feeding feeding enough and not too
much , and of the right kind that portion
tion of the duties of the stable that
comes under the head of grooming bo
carried out as hero indicated , wo would
not bo frequently as now need the inter
nal agents referred to.
Finn SlU a Paper.
Century : In August , 18J54 , a private
citizen's coat and vest , made of live
yards of coarse homespun cloth , cost
J2 'J exclusive of the cost for the male-
ing. . Tlio trilT.ir.i'1crs consisted of old
cravats , and for the cutting si ml putting
together a country tailor charged S-'iO.
It is safe to say that the private citizen
looked a veritable guy in his new suit ,
in spite of its heavy drain upon his
pockotbook.
In January , 1803 , the material for a
lady's dross , which before the war
would have cost $10 could not bo bought
for lose than $ .300. The masculine mind
is unequal to the task of guessing how
great a sum might have been for bon
nets "brought through the lines ; " for ,
in spite of patient self-sacrifice and un
faltering devotion at the bed sides of
the wounded in the hospital , or in min
istering to the needs of relatives and
dependents at homo , the southern
women of these days ai'o ' credited with
as keen an interest in the fashions as
women everywhere in' ' the civilised
lands are apt to no in timoof , peace. It
was nntarnl that they should bo so in
terested , even though7thnt interest
hhould in the main not reach beyond
the theory. Withouti.itjthey often
would have a charm the less and a pang
the more. Any feminine , 'garment in
the shape of a cloak , , or bonnet , or
drcsa which chanced to come from the
north was readily awarded fits mood of
praise , and roproduccdoliy sjiarp eyed
