Homo oftho Young Idcn.
Lot It not bo understood that Council
Hluffs has not been fully abreast of the do-
innnel of the times in all matters pertaining
to the education of its children. Its people
linvo always been proud of Its educational
system. Hut in the completion of the "At
kins school'1 there is ono more reason for
self-congratulation , for It Is , without Ques
tion , the peer of any of Its kind.
The building was begun n little more than
five months ago , nnd on the "Ith of August
the llrst brick w.is laid. It was completed
anel turned over to the board of education on
Monday evening , Decdmbcr III. In its ac
ceptance of the building the board departed
from the usual order of things nnd aelopted a
series of resolutions thanking the contract
ors for the lldullty with which they had per
formed their various contracts. The bo.ird
nlso ordered tlio money due on the various
contracts paid oven to the proper persons.
The-so sums make the cost of the building
complete , * . ' ! ' . ) , ( H ) ( ) , It being , strangely enough ,
less than the amount estimated.
Yesterday the building was thrown open
for tlio public to inspect. During the entire
day throngs of people were passing in and
out of its capacious eloors. Of course n Hiis :
man followed the multitueto. Within the
building there wore murks here and there of
the haste of the finishers of tlio work , but
on the whole the cdlllco was in
peed condition for inspection. Thuro avo.
live entrances to the ) lower lloor , which gives
abundant facilities of ingicss anel egrcs ,
The rooms number from the northeast for-
tier , lower iloor , from one to eighteen , reach
ing the llnal room in the ) third story. The
grades begin with the numbers ami follow
them throughout. The High sciiool will oc
cupy four rooms on the thinl lloor for stuely
ami recitation , nnd room seventeen for lab
oratory work. The superintendent's room is
In the northeast corner room of the second
lloor , nnel the room of the boarel of education
Joins it , being the "round" or tower room.
The museum room is directly above this one.
Heing lighted upon thrco sides , it suits its
purpose most admirably. In the three hulls
anel in closets adjoining are water faucets for
drinking purposes and bowls for cleansing
the bands nnd face. Kach recitation room
has its individual cloak room , which is sepa
rated from all other rooms. Every room is
heated with steam , nnd although the
weather was cold yesterday morning , every
room was comfortable. The windows are
well arranged for ventilation without
draughts. The rooms arc also lighted with
gas , whlejli , though a trille expensive nt the
present price of gas , gives the building a
splendid illumination. The tower must not
be forgotten. Standing here one has a very
commanding view of things terrestrial and
things celestial. Hero the horizon is in full
view , which will make this point a desirable
one for observation purposes. Some visitors
commented adversely upon the absence of
closets in the bailding. "Cleanliness
and health , " Hays the board , "re
quired that these should bo placed
outside the building. Apart from this com
ment nothing but worels of pleasure nnel ap
probation were heard from the visitors.
The building will bo occupied nftor the
holiday recess , but a full division and classi
fication of the pupils will not be made until
aftejr the winter examination and promotion
which takes place in about four weeks.
Until thi'n the pupils attending hero xvlll em
brace those living west of First street and
north of the center of Broadway.
Special mention .should bo made of the
museum. There is already a good collection ,
but it should bo only n beginning of what it
will bo. There ore some lines of study in
which there are no specimens at all , and
others in which there are only a few.
Parents and friends of the school are ear
nestly requested to send in any specimen or
curiosity which they may have that they are
willing to give to the cause of education , or
if they do not wish to give them away , let
them bo loaned for a season. A mngnilicont
collection may bo gathered if nil will Interest
themselves in the matter. The latest ad
dition , and for which thanks ave returned ,
is u fosscl llsli from Mr. Fisher. This comes
nil the way from Wyoming. Also a rattle

nt 2iH Uro.idivny. Let others follow tlio
work thus auspiciously begun.
An Unfaithful Steward.
Charles Perry , the steward at the rooms
of the Council Hluffs club , is in troubles. It
is stated that , ho forged the name of t > . R
Eisner to a clicok for $10.59 , and gave it to
Matt Hale , to whom ho was indebted to the
extent of ? 17. The check was on the First
National bank of this city , and the forgery
was detected as soon as it was presented for
payment. Perry was arrested nnd taken before -
fore Squire Schur/ , who bound him over to
the grand jury in the sum of 500. Perry
ncknowloJgcs the commission of the crime
but denies nil criminal intent , alleging that
ho simply gave the check to got rid of his
debtor.
Observing tlie New Year.
New Year's day of 1SSO passed in the Hluffs
without any special features. So far as the
weather was concerned It was a perfect day ,
as more beautiful weather could not bo do-
sired. Under foot was somewhat sloppy ,
still pedestrians nncl passengers found get
ting about far from diftlcult. The streets
presented ipiito a lively aspect during the
day , nnd the business houses remained open
to accommodates customers , who were out in
Inrgo numbers. The police found little to
keep them busy , and hud iimplo opportunity
to recover from the effects of the ball of the
previous evening.
A Youthful Slubber.
At both city and county offices all was quiet
yesterday nnd no mishiess of importance was
transacted , although the officials recorded n
low deals ns an nccomodatlon to individuals.
In the justices offices it was n holiday , al
though in the morning Justice Harnott's

St. Paul Herald : There was a decided
accession to the ranks of journalism in
Now York city the ether any.
John L. Sullivan having shaken tlio
dust of Boston from his feet nnd eluded
the clutohoHt of gastric 'fever assumed
wito a thud the editorial chair of nn il
lustrated weekly paper. The now edi
tor was escorted to his sanctum bv Dan
Murphy , Hilly Daly nnd Mr. Ltimley.
"This is your desk , John , said Mr.
Lutnlcy , kindly , "and there is the side

"Gltnlonir ! Say , just you wait nnd

Tins important document boinj , ' handed

"Mr. Micky do Slob. "
"Yes , sir. answered a louph-looking
specimed , as ho ambled toward the dosk.
"Go over to Charley Mitchell and in
terview do bloke as to why I didn't lick
him. Don't bo Kone over an hour , an'
if you've got a Rnrntch on ycr mug when
yur come back I'll do yer myself. Sen' "
The tirbnno and gentlemanly reporter
vanished , anel the noise of elh'king
shears and rustling papers was heard in
the intellectual silence. Mr. Sullivan ,
after casting a furtive glance .around
the room and seeing that the rpmninde-r
of his city fctalT wns engaged In binuk-
ing a fragrant "La Grnbiola , " mnelo a
dive HI the sideboard and ruinmnjrcd
about in the musty depths.
" \Vhnt chor look-in' furV asked the
city stall , who was regarding his cigar
with suspicion. The editor hesltnteel ,
and in tones like the soft tinkling of a
mountain brook said :
"Ainteliselo sideboard ? "
"Naw , yer been silting at do side
board. Dat's your desk. "
'
"Thank.vou'kiiKllyslr"replied Sullivan
. , ,
van , "but , I'm more used to the hide-
board , so 1 jti.st guess I'll sit there-.1'
The city stall" was then sent out , after
libations hud been poured at the shrine
of genius , to form u interviewing hquiul
by hiniholf mid coiled opinions of well
known lish dealers regarding the iek'ii
e > f how mussels nhunld bo educated , and
the editor bat down to write an editorial.
' H was as it progressed , full of witty
'saying anel replete with cross-counters
and upper cuts at all the lending falla
cies of the day. It was on the point of
being sent up stairs to bo double-leaded
when an otlico boy rushed into the sanc
tum and prostrated himself at the his
master's feet.
"Dere's it mug out doro wants ter see
ele editor. "
"Git to and lot him lloat in. , "
replied the editor cursely. In another
moment : i raw , lank-looking specimen
ambled in and took a scat.
"I was referred to you by a mutual
friend , who said you would give me a
little notice if 1 asked for it. "
' , " \Vho' ! ? yer palV" inquired the editor.
"His name is Kilrain , Jake Kilrain ,

A blue fog filled the air , in the midst
of which slionu two basilisk eyes re
flecting rage , The stranger slid timor
ously from his chair , passed the door
just ns the noise of a cracking panel
giving way before bunching muscles
was heard , anel the editor was ulouo.
Stopping to the speaking tube , lie mur
mured in its hollow depths , "Say , send
do bloke what docs do obituaries up
here as feoon as ho gets back , and give
him a tip. llo's trot to stay around hero
closer , " then resumed his seat and bent
up the editorial.
Storage UcHcrvoIr Irijrotion.
It has been founel practicable by some
farmers to utilize a portion of their
property as storage reservoirs in a small
way , pays the Denver Times. In the
rolling land of the plains there are to
bo found occasional spots , under ditch ,
but high enough to ntTord the proper
head , which could be transferred into
small reservoirs at a cost within 'the
reach of most men. If the location
should be favorable two or more could
unite in the work , and these storage
reservoirs would bo of vast bonou't
to the crops during the latter months
of the summer season , when the streams
are low.
As the ofllcoi'5 of the geological sur
vey have undertaken to study the
storage question in n manner which
may take , thorn a long time to reach
conclusions , it will do no harm for those
who can do so to act a little privately
and reap the benefit from it. The
greatest obstacle perhaps to contenel
with is the danger of washouts from
cloud bursts , but this cpnditio.i exists
everywhere in this locality nnd must be
accepted the same as lightning.
The government work * will necessa
rily bo slow in construction. It is prob
able that only a few locations will bo
selected at first nnd the effect of these
will bo tObtcd before others are pro
jected. All of this takes timo. They
will no doubt bo faultless in location
and construction , but tlioir use will bo
limited perhaps to a single stream and
others must wait one , two , or three
years , as the action of congress may bo
prompt or tardy , before the work begins -
gins again.
"So much has boon demonstrated in
regard to the fertility of the plains
where fairly watered , nnel by eloop
ploughing where water is scarce , that
the How of immigration thither will bo
largely increased in another year.
Whatever can be done by individual
action or by concerted endeavors when
practicable ! will redound to the benefit
of the localities which indicate this
progressive spirit , and tend to enhance
their growth beyond that of their loss
active neighbors.
A .Now Scholarship.
Boston Advertiser : For the benefit
of young architects the American
Architect announces that it will estab

ilvo years , in any part of the country ,

ited to ono year. The scholarship will
bo awarded after examination in draw
ing , designing , construction , the his

bers of tlio American Institute of Archi
tects or the Western Association of
Architects , but a graduate's diploma
from a technical school will bo accepted
as a substitute for ono of thc&o year's
work.
