The attraction of the season was the show
window of 1 lie Jloston store. Immense crowds

greatly admired.
The Oospol Temperance Reform union has
leased Hughes' hall to occupy on Monday
night. On account of a previous arrange
ment thi' meeting of this week will bo held on
Tuesday evening in this hall. All friends of
the club and the work it is doing are urged to
attend on Tuesday evening.
Our readers , onn and all , should remember
the coming festival of the Women's Christian
association next Tuesday evening at Masonic
hall , and help tlio ladies to the extent of the
price of ono ticket at least , and so make the
"Crowning of the Queen" a grand success.
The young ladies have worked hard to make
ready for the parts they arc to play and
tmould bo encouraged by seeing the hall well
lilled with the Christian temperance people
of the city. Undoubtedly they will bo amply
repaid for all their efforts and the people who
witness tlio performance highly delighted.
It is stated that there will bo an investiga
tion of the I'oleol divorce proceedings. Judge
Wcomor granted Mrs. 1'oteet a divorce a few
days ago on the ground of cruelty and failure
to support. Poteet is in the insane asylum at
Clarinda , and it is alleged that he should
never have been sent there ; in fact , a letter
has Just been received from the asylum au
thorities asking about the previous record and
stating that ho shows no signs of insanity.
This , coupled with the sudden desire of b'is
wife to obtain a divorce , have set Poteet's
friends to thinkind , and theyaillrm thntthcro
is bonictliing at tlui bottom of the charge of
Insanity that should be made public .

HOOF OP TIIK Coriir Horsn , April 5. For
sotno unknown reason Tun line man failed to
show up this week , at least ho didn't show up
as high as this , whom I , the Goddess of Jus
tice , am perched. Last week I had quite a
breezy talk with him. Tills week it would
have been breezier yet nnd perhaps ho
thought that I had too much wind and ho had
too little. Perhaps he objects to the climb. I
must admit that there are almost us many ob
jections to climbing the grand stairway of the
court house as John Limit can raise hi trying
a lawsuit. It is a wonder that the county
commissioners do not do away with the chief
objection. You know when these stairs were
built It was the Intention to have thick strips
of rubber laid on each step. The Iron cleats ,
or ridges , were cast on the edge to provide
for the rubber. The rubber hn't there , but
the ccats ( are , ami there are more heel-taps
than In any other rubber I ever saw played.
Like most other lldmrs. It Is worse to come
down these stairs than to go up them. If only
the right fellow would catch his heel In a cleat
and take a tumble to himself it would not bo
so bad , but it will surely be the wrong fellow
It always Is and a good neck will be
broken. Your reporter evidently did not
climb the iron stairs this week , or at least did
not climb to where I am , and hence I write
you. I hear that awful punster whispering
that that the goddess ought to bo "all right. "
Perhaps he's right.

The newsboys as well ns everybody else
evidently read I'm : Sf.sn.vv BII : : . I heard a
group of them talking last Monday about
what I had said about them. Ono of the lit
tle men expressed truthfully , if not elegantly ,
"That 'ere goddess seems to bo mashed on us
fellers. " Yes I am mashed on them some of
them. But I often peep from under my band
age to watch two whom I have reason to be
lieve are stealing papers from handy door
ways. If they don't look out they will one
day bo put In one side of mv scales and
"guilty" will bo put in the other side.
It's well at times not to bo quick at hearing ,
but I never thought , before the other ( lav ,
that it was an advantage to appear a little
deaf. A canvasser , a line appearing , gentle
manly fellow , visited tlio ollico in the court
house. lie was the best single-handed talker
and had the liveliest all-around tongue I ever
heard. If told that ono was busy didn't
have time to look at it call again next month
or anything of that sort-ho would put his
hand to his ear , as a gentle intimation that
his hearing was a little defective , and
go right on talking and showing up
his wares , remarking as though he
understood just the opposite. "Yes , glad
that you like them , " or "by all means , no
trouble at all for one to show them. " or "you
think that is the prettiest , Well , I am of the
same opinion , " etc. , etc. , and away his tongue
would run at a break-neck pace , discoursing
upon the desirability of his wares. It was
muted to me that this deaf move is one of the
shrewdest dodges of old and experienced can
vassers. 1 notice that when anything was
said , which would encourage the prospective
sale , it was caught on the lly by that suppos
edly deaf car. We've all been taught that it
is well to bo quick at hearing the good , and
slow at hearing the evil , but it never oc
curred to me that it was u good point in can
vassing and worth cultivating lusa part of the
business. Of course a victim cannot got pro
voked at an agent persisting , if he thinks the
agent did not understand his request to "be
off. "

I overheard a neighbor ask Dr. Pinney if
ho had been to see Noul or the others charged
with murdering thtv old folks on his farm.
"No , I haven't. I don't care to see them. I'd
feel to look at these critters as I would to
look at some snakes. I don't want to lay my
eyes on them. I've no curiosity in that line.
Have I got my cattle buck ! Yes , except one

I notice that a little story and a half wooden
building nearly opposite mo on Pearl street is
being repainted and the peaked roof is being
hidden by a square top front built up of
boards. It may bo useful but it isn't orna
mental. Not a bit I heard ono of the croak-
el's poking fun at it. He owns a good deal of
property about town and he thought it was u
waste of paint and boards. Perhaps so , but
oven from where I am I can see that the
croaker's brick building looks as If no
mechanic had earned a dollar on it
for years past. Kven the allev is
cluttered with ashes and rubbish of all sorts.
There's a text for a long sermon in the little
frame building. Kvery one in Council Bluffs
cannot put up a line building , but if every
ono who owns or occupies property wonlil
'
servo actively ns it committee of ono'to clean
up , paint up , scrub up , it would make the
city more attractive and give the town inoro
help than a half-dozen new blocks. Instead
of spending your time fault-llnding or idly
wishing that bomo one would put up a new
buildingwash your windows , p.iint your store
front , get new signs , cart away tlio ashes , lix
your sidewalk , clean tlio lawn , and if you
each do your little it will bo a better standing
advertisement of the city than any sort of a
write-up or pictorial boomlct. It would bo a
picture in real life ; a picture in relief great
relief. But I'll cut the sermon short.

S. T. Yodcrof Mimlen , la. , was in the-cltv
the other day. As ho was walking along ifp
from the depot ho met a brother merchant
hero who asked him about trade. "Well ,
trade is pretty fair at Mindcn. Collections ;
They're better than they ever were. You
know wo have a good many Germans ,
and they are pretty good pay. Those who
haven't the ready cash settle'up bv a note ,
and the banks consider these notes all right.
It's been a hard winter in some respects , but
do you know its-big help to these wholesale
houses in Omaha and Council Bluffn a big
help to us country merchants } For Instance
I haven't got to carry over a single arctic
overshoe. You see I can order Just as my
trade wants , and can get my orders lilled in
side of a few bom's. When wo had to send
way east , we either wouldn't either send or
had to order so far ahead that we couldn't
toll just how our trade would como up. If
wo didn't order enough goods wo would get
left , ami If wo ordered too iiianv we'd get
left. It's mighty handy having these whole
sale houses so near , and these short orders
coming from all around must make up quite a
little trade for the wholesalers , for it is so
much thrown into their regular business 1
mean their sales of largo bjlls , regular stoekn
for the season. This is one of the reasons , I
believe , why this is so good a point for
wholesale houses. There's room for more of
them , too.
V
I see the motor company Is running dining
cars that Is , they're diners for the motor
men. 1 pity the conductors and Iho motor
men , who have to carry their meals In a pull
on the ear and catch as catch can. They ojien
up their lunch arrangements , and to the sat
isfaction of curious passengers , who watch
every mouthful. Then they no more than
got a taste Iwforo there's a bell to bo rung , a
faro to bo taken , a switch to bo turned , and
up they Jump. It does seem that a lu-ccnt
faro between the cities should enable the
company to give their men time to eat.

A Cliaiitaiiiiua Motor Line.
The Chautauqua directors are working hard
to secure the building of a motor line extension -
sion to the assembly grounds , and If the prop

thing the building of the line is assured. The
motor company W1H build the desired extension -
tension , provided the right of way Is given
pud u bonus of lio.OOO. The building of the
lluo would so greatly enhance the value of
suburban properly along the route that there
should be no dlfllculty In raising the bouu
from directly Interested property owners
The right of way ii already provldei
for , astho Chautnuqun committee
yesterday secured this concession from prop
crty owners between tin city limits and the
Chautauqua grounds , mid the company al
ready has the right of way. over ftti-ecta
within the city limits. Kven if this were nose
so , the right of way would undoubtedly be
secured , as many of the owners of the prop
erty along East Pierce and Canning streets
have willingly agreed to it. No particular
route has been specitled , but the Canning
street line has boon thus fur considered its
the most direct Hue and the most pnietlea
hie. Other routes have been suggested , am
hero Is a chance for the owners of outlying
additions to secure a motor line and throw
their lots Into the market by making then
'eusllv accessible. If the terms of the propo
sltion are complied with , the road will bt
