Elcc'int Decorations. The beautiful residence of General G. M. Dqdgo on Third street , which is now occupied by the general's brother , N. P. Dodge , has long boon known as ono of the palaces of the city , where it was scarcely possible for any improvement. Eut the flno old' place has received Borne ar.tlstic . attention , during the past " " ibw weeks , Unit has made a marked tm- .nrovoroont. Thu greater , .part of the , 'iwcirk - has boon devoted to the front entrance and main hallway 4 way , and it IB now perhaps tho' -Ripest in the city. The artist has ' -used but two colorsgold and white , and n tho'ollcct ' is beautiful. The two colors Bro well known to bo the most difllcult to combine and produce nn effect that will not bo garish and cold , but the grtist has accomplished the feat and as given a softened and pleasing ef fect that cannot bo described. The fig- , urcsseom to stand out like they wore .skillfully . carved out of the wall itself. The frieze is thirty inches deep nnd is a beautiful work of art. The design ie a simple ono and the figures have nm.plo background. In the light that 'comes through the doorway the glint of the gold is just marked enough to nt- .Jruct attention but it must bo brilliant 111'tho , blaze of the chandelier at night. .The . beauty of the work is its simplicity nnd its perfect harmony , that kind of " Harmony that grows a" pleasing im pression upon the beholder the longer io looks at it.

Factory Burned General and Per sonal Notes. A nitrating Storm Cloiil. About 1 o'clock yesterday mornlnu It not merely mined , but it liturnlly pourid. It re minded ono of the bursting of the storm cloud , which caused such lnvvoo several years UKO. It seemed that the bottom hud really fnllun out , nnd nil the waters nbovo wore being poured out. The wntor from the hills rushed down the streets from the bluffs , nnd us they cainu surging nloni ; Msdlson street they quickly discovered that n portion of the paving bad been taken up , foe the nutting in of a pipe , nnd bad been loft dis placed. With n malicious freak , It furthered the taking up of the paving , nnd did BO In a very unseemly , boisterous wny. Tearing under the wooden blocks , It lifted them nnd swept them on down the street , scnttcrlne them along Urondwny , nnd depositing some of them as far away ns the Northwestern depot. The wooden paving for two blocks was thus carried away , leaving the plank foundation cleanly swept , nnd all In readi ness for the picking up nnd rcplnclng of the block. There miturnlly has arisen much questionIng - Ing as to who should rcpluco these blocks. The private property owners have already boon assessed for the original oxpcnso of the paving. The Now \orlt Plumbing company had tauen up the bit of paving in front of Mr. Crandull's residences for the purpose of making a water connection. At first thought It seemed that this company should stand the damage , but its manager , Mr. Hart , explains - plains the situation very differently. Ho states that It has been customary for the city , under the supervision of Its street com missioner , Mr. Avery , to relay pavement in such cases , ho having exports engaged for that purpose. Mr. Hart claims that when they bait got through with their plumbing Thursday evening Mr. Avcry was notilled so that thn pavlne could bo rclald Friday. It was not so rclald , and the storm cnmo yes terday , llndlng it in that displaced condition. The cedar blocks thus washed out and scattered aoout wore eagerly Inspected by numerous citizens , curious to see the effect of eighteen mouths wear on the paving blocks. Most of thorn expressed themselves as satisfied , the blocks showing better than thoy.expoctcd. Others picked up offensive samples and paraded them as evidencing how poor material had boon used by the con tractors , or how quickly tirno had rotted nnd worn the wooden paving. Tno fnll of water was fully two Inches , as indicated by several receptacles , such as n mortar bed , forming crude but quite accurate proofs of the way the clouds gushed out their contents. It was a severe test or the public improvements made In Council Bluffs within the past few years. A few years ago such a sudden and plenti ful outpouring would have caused the creek to overflow , would have carried away a goodly portion of the steeply graded streets , and would have flooded cellars nnd mired sidewalks. With well paved streets , sewers , n wide and deepened ned for the creek , and the numerous other improvements mailo , the water was carried off qulto wonderfully , leaving little to toll the story of the great rain except the indiscriminate scattering of tbo loosened blocks from Madison street. It was a test which showed the advantages o'f street improvements. The rush of water did little damage to the foundation of Mr. Marcus' now block , but this will not amount to S1UU. The Merriam block , just being finished , got a few undesirable spots of wetness , owing to the debris from the now roof clogging the waste pipes , but $25 will cover nil the damage , despite the rumor that the damage was much greater. A few foot of the electric motor track was washed out between the water works and the bridge , but a gang of men speedily re stored this , so that there was no interrup tion to the running of trains , and no special damuco. The top of n mnn-holo near the Methodist church , on Broadway , was lifted off by the rush of water. Mr. E. Huntington , in wad ing along in the darkness , stepped into this , but managed to crawl out with no moro serious injury than comes from a severe wetting. Have our wagon call for your soiled clothes.

A few minutes before noon , yesterday , an alarm of flro , from the southwestern portion of the city , called the department to tbo sash and blind factory of Strock Bros. , at the corner of Tenth uvenuo and Thirteenth street. The structure was in flames when Ilia firemen arrived , but three lines of hose wcro quicKly laid. Then the scones of the great packing house flro of a few weeks ago wcro repeated. Two streams of water were turned on , and neither could bothrowm uioro than two hundred feet. A citizen telephoned the police station for additional pressure , aud Jailor Barhyto promptly closed the reservoir valves , and "gave the direct pumping pressure on the mains. There wni n small change noticon- bin. but not enough to make any material dlfluroncc. The flromcn stood around directing a weak stream against the walls of the burning structure , but their work amounted to noth ing. When the flro was nt Its height , on , Kino No. 1200 , from the Union Pacifle yards- ran up to the building nnd was soon direct ing n heavy stream on the flames. The flro was very considerably checked , nnd , had the water held out , would soon have been completely subdued. As It was , the city department continued to hover nbout the building until the flames had consumed everything but the brick walls , and finally died out for want of fuel. An Investigation ns to the c.iuso of the flro revealed the fact thnt It caught at the bottom tom of an enclosed passage way , through which the shavings nnd sawdust wcro con ducted from the second floor to the boiler- room , where they wcro burned under the boilers. The bottom of this Hue was but ten feet from the front of the boilers , and there fore very easy of access b.v tno lire. The building was completely destroyed , nnd the heat probably totally ruined the ma chinery. Had sufllclont water been thrown. It Is hardly probable that the bulldlnc could have been saved , but the loss to the ma chinery , had It been prevented from becom ing so heated , would hardly have exceeded half what it did. A largo crowd quickly assembled , nnd cltt- znns vied with each other in alternately de nouncing the waterworks company nnd the lire department. After the packing house flro , TUB BBC urged the necessity of n more thorough un derstanding on the part of the flro'depart- mont of the exact situation of affairs in the lower portion of the city , in order to prevent n repetition of such a conflagration. Noth ing whatever was done In the matter , nnd yesterday's tire shows the result of the ne glect to take suitable steps to prevent , it. It has been often urged that the flro de partment of Council Bluffs was as near per fection ns could be reasonably expected , but the supporters of that argument can hardly repeat the assertion In the face of recent de velopments. The ofllccrs of the flro depart ment attempt to throw the blame on the w.iter works company , but nn Investigation will show the fallacy of such n statement. When Jailor Barhyto was telephoned for pressure. It was by nn outsider , a man whenever never was connected with the lire depart ment. Jailor Barhyto states thnt it was fif teen minutes nftor ho had turned on pres sure before ho received ofllclnl notification by the lire alarm that It was needed. Ho states also that ns the change was made the pressure Increased to 1-0 pounds , nnd inuldo of three minutes to 140 , where It remained until after I o'clock. The great mistake made nt the packing house lire , that of tapping the mains with tno many leads of hose , was the ono respon sible for yesterday's trouble In securing pros- sure. It Is also asserted that the lire depart ment nozzles are altogether too largo for any mains except on Broadway. The water Is allowed to pass so fast and freely that the required pressure can not bo secured. The crow of Union Pacifle engine 1,200 nro deserving of praise , nnd too much can not bo said of their vigorous nnd effective work. They took their stand on the south side of the buruing building , in the face of the heat und smoke , and took a much closer position to the nro , notwithstanding their disad vantage , than did the regular department on the other side. The latter directed a weak stream for fully a quarter of au hour against a little portion of the brick wall , instead of 'attempting ' to extinguish the flames raging within. As this Is the second severe lessnn received during less than il month , it may bo reason able to presume that the usual third may bo missed. The excessive tapping of mains has resulted so disastrously that in the future the smiio may bo avoided. It Is sin cerely hoped that hereafter the amount of water to bo secured will be regarded and con sidered as having something to do with the pressure. The loss will reach from $12,01)0 ) to $15,000 with but very little insur.uicu. The heavy pressure put on the water mains yesterday noon nt the time of the lire , re sulted rather disastrously. A few pipes and water closets in buildings in the central portion tion of the city were broken , but the loss occasioned in these cases was nominal. Shortly nftor 1 o'clock , n sudden decrease in the pressure gave the information that there was n serious break somewhere in the mains. Chief Engineer Birkinhlrc , of the water works company , immediately started down Broadway to locate the break. After passing Twenty-sixth the paving was seen to be in a very uneven condition , thora being numerous depressions , and at Twenty- eighth street the break was _ found. Water was pouring out of great holes in the ground on either side of the street , and the paving nt the Intersection was rising and falling , the blocks dancing about in shapeless con fusion , tossed by the raging whirlpool un derneath. The pumps at the pumping sta tion had boon stoppjJ on noticjni : the fall in pressure , nnd the water was running to the break from the reservoir nt the head of Qlnn nvunuo. The stop vulvo nt Twenty-first street was closed , also the valves at Pacific avenue , Eighth street and the Northwestern depot. This stopped the flow/ucd a largo gang of men were at once put to work cxcavUtinir at the corner.of Broadway nnd Twenty-eighth streets to uncover the br ak nnd make "nec essary repairs. The paving from Twenty- sixth to Thirtieth streets was completely undermined , nnd all travel was compelled to cross the vacant lots on either side between those two points. The damage will amount to considerable , but the exact amount can not yet be told. Two , and perhans four blocks of paving will have to bo taken up and rclald. Breaks will bo repaired by this morning- and w.itor service will bo furnished the ontlro city the samn as usual. Aside from this break other repairs will require several days to repeat. The only accident that occurred was sus tained by Mr. Blrklnbmo , who was thrown from his wagon at the corner of Broadway and Eighth streets , about' : ! o'clock , by iho telescoping of n wheel , which caught In the electric motor traclr. Ho wa thrown violently lently to the etono paving , alighting on his right arm which was badly injured. Ho was removed to his resldonca whore Drs. Lacey and Green attended him. The elbow Joint was found to bo broken and displaced , mak ing an injury that will ha very hard to treat. The break of the bone in the Joint will bo very liable to produce a stiff nrrn. Mr. Birk inbino will be laid up for some time , and his accident Is doubly unfortunate from the fact that it Is his right arm. The plan conceived b.v E.
