City Hall V8 l < Veo
The mayor 1ms not yet issued hlsrproclanm
tion , as authorized by the council at its las
meeting , to cull an election for the purpos
of submitting to toe voters of the city tb
ticsllon of voting bonds in the sum of f 103-
00 or less for securing a slto and erecting a
ow city halt , but It U understood that the
matter will como up at the .regular Novem
ber election on the 5th of next month. This
vlll avoid the expense attendant on a special
lection , and at the same tlmo will bring the
question before the people about ai soon ns >
1 could bo If such an olcction was called.
All of the nluormon , with the exception of
Alderman Everett , nro avowedly in favor of
eroding the proposed now building ns soon
as iwssibto , nnd the gentleman named , whllo
of the opinion that a now city hall U not ns
yet the city's most pressing need , docs not
express any determined opposition to the
movo. The only objection thus far voiced to
the city ball project Is that It might dolny the
erection of n now bridge , uhlch is generally
regarded na of far moro Importance to the
city at the present time than n now city
building. Of course , there are lengthy and
cxhuustlvo arguments both pro and con , but
t Is yet too curly for nny actual work to
mvo been done In the matter either way.
As nearly ns can bo ascertained , tno only
objection to the building of a now city hall
will come from thoio who ptofoss to bcllove
that it Is n move gotten up for the purnoso
of defeating the frco bridge project.
Whether or not this ii really the plan is n
matter of conjecture. The city undoubtedly
needs both , but U Is argued that both can
lot bo secured nt the present tlmo. If It Is
Icinonstratcd that the city can not have
loth , there will bo a contest to see which it
shall be , with the chances , ns nt present in
dicated , stiongly In favor of the free
bridge.
It has been nser'.Jd that certain parties
louvily Interested in the present bridge nnd
electric motor nro at the bottom of the move
to boom the erection of a city lull , lor the
reason , as above staled , that It would in all
irolmbillty retard the building of n free
jiidgo , which would throw open a most In
viting uvcnuo for n computing lino. Hoh.
Ueorgo L < 1. Wright , secrelary of the bridge
and motor tomdany , was seen regarding the
natter , and slated that , as far a * ho was
conrcrned , ho should oppose the building of
a city hall , as ho iJid not bollovo that it was
needed as badly as other things.
The advocates of the cltv hall nrguo that
is erection would not in the least interfere
with the prospects of Hie desired frco bridge ,
and thnt , as the Bluffs must have the co-
opcralion of Omaha in the latter case , this
nutter is not yet ripe , nnd that , oven If it was ,
there would bo no delay or interference
caused by voting the necessary bonds for the
city hull.
On the other hand , It is urged that the
erection of the city hall would not benefit tlio
city to any great extent , so fur as increasing
thu population or wealth Is concerned , whllo
a free bridge would do both Also that the
city hall would swallow up a lot of the public
funds without bonelltting the people , while
the bridge would save nickels , dimes and
dollars for every citizen. Those arguments
aio advanced on the theory that if the hall Is
Iniilt the bridge can not bo secured. The
light Is hat illy onus yet , but there is every
indication that before the question Is finally
submitted at the polls there will bo u great
deal of hard work done.

Another County Ticket.
About fifty or sixty , farmers chiefly , mot
at Ncola Thursday , under the name of the
labor convention. Most of the manipulators
were membcis of the Farmers' alliance , but
the constitution of that body forbids the po
litical use of its cower or name.
The convention passed resolutions scaring
both the old parties for failing to recognize
sufllcicntly the Industrial and agricultural
classes , which wns pronounced a sufficient
Justification for nominating a full nnd inde
pendent county ticket.
Resolutions wcro passed in favor of the
government controlling railway and tele-
gr.iph lilies , and that all money should bo is
sued dliect by the government ; also in favor
of abolishing the electoral college and elect
ing the president and vice president by direct
vote of the people ; nlso favoring the reduc
tion of Interest from 10 per cent to 8 percent ;
also for reducing t ho salary of county ofllcmls
to an equality with the earnings of laborers
and farmers.
On this platform the following county
ticket was nominated.

'flic Motor on I1 i fill Avenue. „
The electric motor company has surveyors
at work along the proposed line of the trans
fer extension , from Pearl street down Fifth
avenuu nnd Paciiio avenue , to the Union Pa
cific transfer. It was the intention of the
company to run this line down Sixth avenue
instead of Fifth , but tbo plan is changed.
The reason Is not officially stated , but it Is
undei stood to bo thnt the line , as now
planned , will glvo the public better service ,
nnd divide the city moro evenly , especially
as it is now intended to mn another line
down Ninth avenue , past the union depot
grounds , thence around to tun main line.
However , it Is hardly probable that the
Ninth nvenuo line will bo built before apiing ,
although tlio company will get at It as soon
as possible. The other line , down Fifth ave
nue , will bo built tins fall , and work will bo
commenced at once , provided the property
owners do not ralso such objections as will
prevent It. It is understood that the com
pany takes tno same position In this Instance
that they did regarding the Pierce street
line ; that is , that if they are required to pay
for the paving they will not occupy tlio
street.
Several pronounced kicks liave already de
veloped. and it Is certain that there will be
quite a llttlo Jangle before the line is built ,
even if It is built at nil. Thcro Is nothing
that can prevent the building of the line , If
the company desires to build it , as they have
u right of way over every street and avouuo
in the city , ao that the paving question is
really the only question In controversy. Al
though the company has this right of way ,
they can not , according to law , occupy tlio
streets without paying for the p.wiug be
tween the rulU and for a foot outside , unless
exempted by the property owners.
The company maintains that such a law is
not equitable , as an oloctrlo line does not
wear out the paving as does an ordinary
street car line , yet they do not maintain that
they can evade It. Their position is that tbo
property owners can not afford to let them
build upon other streets , as tbo building ol
the line would greatly Increase the value of
abutting pronerty. For this reason they an
ticipate no decided objection. They are
bound to build a line to the transfer , und the
question U not where , but how the line will
GO.
GO.As now planned , tlio route is down Fifth
and Paciflo avenues to the transfer , thence
across the as yet unsettled portion of the
bottoms , to the main line on uvonuo A , near
the east end of the Iowa approach to the
bridge. A move has been on foot for some
timoto secure a line across this part of the
city , and a bonus of f 10,000 , lias boon raised
by real estate men and property owners to
Induce the company to build the Hue. This
line , however , would not permanently remain
main a part of the Fifth avunuo line , as a
would become a part of tlio Ninth uvcnuo
Ino , thus malting a direct line to Omaha
from the union depot and transfer , doing
ftwny with the necessity of brln Ing ml n i-
sengers by n round about way on Pcnrl street
ind Hroauwav to got over the river. It Is
ntcnded to have electric cars running to the
ransfor before winter sots in , and If possl-
> lo nil the portions of the city now reached
by the street cars will bo visited by the dec-
rio motor , nnd the bobtail cars discontinued
by the 1st of January , 1800.

Another case of marital Infelicity cnmo to
Ight lust evening \\hen W. Vanatta applied
at police headquarters for a warrant for the
arrest of his wife on the churgo of adultery.
The paper was served by Deputy Marshal
iVhltc , and the woman taken to the station.
L < lttlo could bo learned of the case until
about U o'clock In the ovonng , when Vanatta
appeared ot the station in charge oC Otllcor
temp , who had arrested htm nt the instiga
tion of the angry and thoroughly Indignant
voinan. When the pair mot In the station
there was a scene , and in a very few minutes
the spectators wcro acquainted with nearly
all of the disgusting details of the case.
After indulging in mutual recriminations
for a while , Vanatta told the reporter the
entire history of the caso. Spacn forbids Us
reproduction , but the principal points arc ns
follows :
lioth hail previously wedded , and the re
sult proved tnarrlago a failure. Nothing
launtcd , they tried It again , und became all
n alllo each other nineteen years ago. Van-
alia Is a cripple , having lost a leg and hand
during the war , for which no receives a
jcnslon of $ . ' ) ( ) a month. Four children wcro
jorn to them , and there was no sorloas
trouble until about three weeks ago.
At that time n "Q" switchman , named
Harry McAllister , became a too frcquo-it
visitor nt the Vanatta household on Second
nvenuo , between Twelfth and Thirteenth
street , nnd nines then the head of thu family
} lleges that bo has seen said visitor in bed
.vltli his wife , on no less than seven different
occasions. His little islrl. aged fourteen
years , llrst calleit his attention to tbo mat
ter , but ho would not believe It until com
pelled to. Wednesday nicht ho stood out-
ildc , and through n broken pane of glass
leard the guilty couple plan to deliberately
rob him.
Ho states that Congressman Reed Is work-
ng to secure back pension money for him ,
uul have his allowance raised to fSOa month ,
and promised him that ho would receive
iboutUDO ) within u cuuple of weeks. The
woman informed her pirumour of this and
Bind thnt she would get It all , as she had
done In the past , and would then deposit
enough in the bank to "keep the
quiet for awhile , " and they
would elope with tlio remainder.
A married daughter of sixteen years , whoso
husband deserted her a few months ago after
nine weeks of wedded lifeIs also n discordant
clement , and unites with her mother In giv
ing the father n sound thrashing whenever
the occasion seems to warrant it.
So matters have gone from bad tb worse ,
and Vanatta could stand it no longer and
caused her arrest. Thu woman denies it all
and says ho is uddiuto 1 to the use of opium
and morphine , and does not know what ho
is about. When ho offered to pro-
euro her release and take her homo
If she would uromiso to hvo with him nnd
behave us she should , she refused to promise
and said shn would remain there und stand
trial. She also Insisted that she would pre
fer charges against him , but refused to say
what they wei c , and said she would wait
until morning. She took bun into a corner
and tried to settle on other terms , but was
unsuccessful Vanatta spent the night at
the station , being afraid to go home , ns his
married though husbanaloss daughter said
she would raise a crowd aud have him
lynched.
! ! insists that ho loves the woman and
fairly worships the ground she walks on ,
and lias for nineteen years , yet she scoffs
and Jeers at him , und evidently loathes the
sight of him. Ho alleges that she openly
boasts of her preference for McAllister , and
curses and abuses him as a helpless ciipplo.
It is a rather unusual case , possessing souio
very queer complications , and with its low
und disgusting foatuics are coupled many of
a very pitiful nature.

Sale or the l-JIoclrlu Ms lit. IMant.
It is quietly whispered that the Sporr.y
Electric Light company , of Chicago , which
has been negotiating for the past ten davs
for lots in the southern part of the city on
whloli to locate their plant for lighting the
city , according to the contract awarded them
by the council a few weeks ago , has Just
completed a different and far moro import
ant deal , which is nothing less than the pur
chase of the entire plant of the Council
Bluffs Electric Light and Power company ,
of which Mr. Thomas Oftlcer is president
nnd principal owner. Mr. Gregory , the rep
resentative of the Sperry company , has Just
icturncd to Chicago , and it < s known that ho
has been in close conference with Mr. Of
ficer for the past four davs with reference
to this matter.
The cntiro plant was carefully inspected by
Mr. Gregory , und Mr. Ofllcer was icquested
to put a urico upon it. He announced that
the price of the plant was about $30,000 ,
which is about the amount that the general
public regarded ns the cost. Mr. Gregory
replied that his company could duplicate It
for $00,000 , being a manufacturing company
In the electrical machinery business. It is
not known what price Air. Ofllccr placed
upon tiie property , but it is believed that Mr.
Gregory lias cone to Chicago to consult witli
tils company regarding ttio mutter of pur
chase , inasmuch as no lots wore purchased
on xvhich to locate u plant , although bids
wcro to have been opened on the 1st inst.
If tbo icport of the sale should provo cor
rect , it would create no surprise , ns Mr.
Ofllcor stated , after tlio contract was let to
the Sperry company , that ho could not hope
to compete with them in furnishing arc
lights , as their contract price was so low
that ho could make no money at it , and if
they attempted to out prices it would result
in diiving him out of the market , as he
would not run at a loss , which ho would
have to do to follow their prices , lib they
could furnish light at much less than ho could
as they manufactured their own machinery
nnd could equip n plant for much less money.
This being the case , It Is very probable that
ho would bo glad to sell at a fair Jlgui o. As
it Is , tno policy of the Sparry company to
replace Thomson-Houston machines with
luelr own whenever possible , It Is hardly
probable that thu deal will fall through.

JAVA'S ANGLING APES.
An Old Traveler's Story oF the Mon
key and HIH Crab Dinner.
"Monkeys abound in the island of
Java , " said an old custom traveler to u
Now York Sun reporter , "lor shooting
tbom is looked upon as the worst kind
of vandalism , and they do very little
damage , rarely injuring tlio crops on
the farms , and living chiolly on wild
fruits. There is , however , a species of
largo npo there thnt is not wholly vogo-
t.irian. IIo is about the sio of a sin.tll
chimpanzee , and when full grown , his
dark face is encircled with a bushy
white beard and whiskers , giving it a
very whimsicnl expression , ludicrously
like that of a little old num. IIo is not
at all wild , and ho seems to have some
idea of practical joking , which loads
him occasionally to descend lo the lower
boughs of a high tree in the evening
nnd hold out his paw in apparent friend
liness to any ono who happens to bo
ncnr. A person who is not familiar
with the queer bruto's tricks
is apt to suppose that the monkey
desires to shako hands , and goes under
tlio trco for the purpose of meeting the
amicable advance half way. Ho is for
tunate if ho escapes a slup on the faco.
At all events the paw is withdrawn before
fore tlio human fingers touch it , and the
ape , sitting a few footabovo the range
of a man's spring , scratches his ribs and
gibbers iiiHultingiy. The long tail is
sometimes lowered instead of tno hand ,
and then the chances of the creature
dealing a malicious stroke are greatly
incroiibcd , for the caudlo appendage is
extremely lithe and flexible , and is of
as much service to its owner as a Illth
limb.
"It is a noticeable thing about these
tails that they are nearly always badly
Bcarrod at the extremity , and frequently
bear wounds quito fresh aud still bleed
ing. Tlio monkeys use their tails as
fishing lines and \vilji them catch the
crabs that Infest tUo coast of tlio island.
Tlieso crabs are .iHou't Iho size of the
hurd-sholl Crustacea of the sumo species
thnt arc ollored forsalo in our own mar
kets , and tlio apes are lliuir only
enemies , for nobody else on the island
cares to cat them. They Hvo in holes
several yards above high water mark ,
and when they emerge to look for food
they look ca"iitiousjy around to BOO
whether an hpo is near. If Ihoy see
ono or suspect Jits presence they go
back , and they are , so quick in thuir
movements that the monkey has no
clianco of catching them. But the ani
mal hns perfect passion for crab meat ,
and his appetite must bo gratified at
any pcn > onal sacrifice.
' Going to a hole into which ho has
scon a crab retreat , ho inserts his tail
ns far as it will extend , which is gen
erally to the end of the cavity. Any
person concealed in the vicinity and
watching htm ut such u moment sees
the funniest spectacle imaginable. Tlio
Hslior sits perfectly still , with his mouth
wide open , an oxprosnion of anxious ex
pectancy on his fuco , and anticipatory
tears gathering in his eyes. IIo never
has long to wait , for Java's crab is very
much like the snapping turlluin its dis
position. In a fovv minutes the mon
key's mouth closes with a snap , the
teotli are clenched tightly , the oycs
shut nnd the water that has risen in
them tickles down tlio hairy cheeks.
The contortions of the countenance
eneitlc of torture heroically endured ; for
the animal has a bite , and ho is waiting
for the paoy to take a fust hold , Then
the tail , with the doomed crab clinging
to its tip , IB jorkud swiftly from the
hole. ) whirled around for u couple of
seconds to glvo it impetus , nnd brought
down on the ground with a crash that
breaks the crab's she'll as though it
wo ro a badly cmi'-dod liond at Donnybrook -
brook Fair. The apo's meal is sorvud.
IIo picks out the moat with his claws ,
only interrupting his enjoyment of the
repast now and than to moan in solf-
commisoratlon and moisten his wounded
tall with his tongue , "

ALL ON THE SAME ERRAND.
Kentucky Itiinnwnjfi , Seoklnc Secret
Wedding * , Surprise Knoll Other.
Throe couples from llardin county ,
nil of whom knew each other , but none
of whom know ot any other proposed
elopement but their own , crossed to
JolTorsonvlllo yesterday afternoon and
returned Inst night , all catching the
same train , says the Louisville Courior-
Jourmil. ,
About 2 o'clock J. S , Crnllo and Miss
F.llyn McDonald arrived and crossoa the
classic Ohio. They were nccommmlod
by llov. Thomas Robortionof the Moth-
odiat faith the of the '
, pastor girl's par
ents , who performed the ceremony at
'
the Falls City hotel. They spent' the
afternoon in viewing Jofforsonvlllc ,
The ink had scarcely dried on the
marriage register before Van Carico
nnd Miss Annie E. Divons approached
Deputy County Clark MeCormick and
asked for tlio legal documents necessary
to a marriage ceremony.
"Whoro are you from ? " asked the
genial deputy.
"Wo are from Ilardln county , " re
sponded the blushing bride , while the
tall groom smiled extensively and
blandly.
"Do you know thcso people ? " said the
deputy , showing them Iho names of tlio
first parties. They did. The lady lived
but four miles from the homo of the
groom , and they wondered if the same
causp lud to thu former elopement.
Having secured the 1 icon so the pros
pective bride hustled her prospective
bettor half into a steer car , whence
they alighted in front of Justice Koig-
win's olllcc , and ho performed the cere
mony in his parlors.
Mr. nnd Mrs. Carico returned to this
city and looked at tlio show windows on
Fourth iivonuo , nnd while all this
was being accomplished George M. Che-
nault and Miss Alice Van Meter eloped
and wore married bv the liurnous Jus
tice Koigwin. Mr. Chenault found that
ho nnd Miss Van Meter know all four
of the former parties , and was very
much excited for ( par his visit should
bo found out upon his return homo.
The throe * nowly-mado pairs and the
minister met in the waiting room of the
Louisville & Na hvillo depot , and it
was arranged that they should toll "pa
an' ma" tnat they had all been to this
city to see the matinee at Ilai ris' , with
the preacher as a chaporono.
County Clerk Stealoyof JelTorsonville ,
had , u to last night , issued 550 mar
riage licensed since the first of the year ,
607 of which \vero to eloping couples.
New Albany is wav behind in the con
test for Grotna Green honors , but by
way of inducement to eloping couples ,
the olllcinls in that town are thinking
seriously of giving Waterbury watches
lo each matrimonial applicant.
Tlio nfsnpnearanen of Deserts.
What wore supposed to bo deserts are
vapidly vanishing before the advance
of civilization. There was a time when
the United States had only ono of no
small size , when it wna considered that
all the land west of the Missouri river
wns a barren waste. The farmers of
Kansas , Nebraska and Dakota have dis
posed of much of the great American
desert , says Iron. Once upon a time
largo portions of the interior of Africa
were believed to bo arid and unculli-
vablo. Now wo learn that they are
fruitful and well populated. The in
terior of Australia has been hold up as
an awful example of a howling wilder
ness , destitute of water and of animal or
vegetable life. That illusion is now be
ing rapidly dispelled. Recent explorers
report that inner Australia is no Saharan -
ran waste , and that , though unin
habited , it can support a lareo popula
tion. There are grassy plains , largo
lakes , and also traces of gold and
precious stones. A north and south
railway is now being made through the
centre of Australia , and doubtless with
its completion the last trace of the des
ert will vanish. The iron horse is n
wonderful dispollpr of illusions of that
kind. The truth is , that there are vast
regions in Ameiica , Asia and Australia
which are barren from the standpoint
of ptimitivo and ignorant agriculture ,
but which , when taken in hand by the
educated farmer of the present day ,
with hiu implements , develop into fer
tile fields and pastures.

of Iho reduction in jn-ico of conl initilo by A. T. Tluitcher , of this oily , that Mr.
llmtehor hits heretofore claimed to soil coal by wholcsnlo only , und that many of

to do so , if wo could got a good article of coal that \\ould plcns-o our trade , but
with coal bought from Mr. Tlmiehor wo huvo had n irroat deal of trouble and
complaint , and those of us who have handled his coal have boon
to Withdraw Oar Orders
from him or lese our customers.
To resent this and coereo the dealers into buying an inferior article of coal
Mr. Thatcher hns come into the retail trade , and la now offering his coul at a leal
price delivered to consumera than ho charged us for it at his yards , and also at
lower prices than wo could purchase Merchantilo Coal olsowhuro.
