The workings of the prohibitory law in Council Illuffs seoins to give the radical third party folks considerable uneasiness , lest u Imov. lodge of the correct situation hero may result unfavorably lor thcui lu the coining campaign In Nebraska. Some time ago nearly 100 letters were received hero by men of nil clrsscs , asking them u number of questions with refercrcnco to the enforcement of the luw. Many of the most prominent men of the city were selected , and requested to give their Ideas of why the law was apparenttv n dead letter here. One was addressed to Mayor Macrae , and Ida Tetter Is thus explained by another letter , several copies of which have Just been received In the city : Ktmoitm. ROOMS or Tin : Voiir. Isi'.w YOIIK , April 111. li"0.-Dear ! SU1 : "I would oMMM-t to Iw mobbed by the business men If I closed the saloons ! " writes Donald Macr.ie , the mayor of Council Hluffs , In answer to our question why the state law against liquor selling Is not enforced In that city. Wo would like to know If this statement of Mavor Macrae represents correctly the posi tion of tlio business men of Council Hluffs on the question Of law and order. What Is your answerl KiiiTOiiorTiiB Voitn. The receipt of this letter has caused more or less discussion , and some of the mayor's friends of prohibition tendencies have freely expressed their doubt as to thogennlncness of the words attributed to him. TUB HPB waited on the mavor ye.steiday and showed him one of the letters , asking If his sentiment was correctly expressed. "It certainly is , " was Ills replv. "I have answered that question scores of times dur ing tlio past few days. I have run across several of these letters , and I have gathered in every one of them. What do I do with them ? Why , I simply write the word 'Correct' at the bottom and mall them back to the house that published them. I wish that I could pet hold of tfiem all and I would thus ondorsV every ono of them. I meant just what I said when I wrote that and I don't proi > ese to go back on it cither. A man came to mo today and wanted mo to sign a juper stating that I wns in favor of prohibition , and when I refused , stating that 1 was u biKli license man , he gasped for breath and seemed fairly dumbfounded. Ho is making a canvass of the city and will try to show that public .sentiment hero is strongly in favorof the enforcement of the law. The general impression of the business men doesn't indicate that his elToits will bo at tended with very widespread .success. " A Main street business man was also talk ing about the letter Said he : "There is more truth than poetry hi what the mayor is el edited with sajlng. The business men of the city might not mob him , but they would raise an awful howl if the saloons were closed , and the very fact that between ilfty and seventy-live saloons are now running openly In the city and have been so running ever .since the prohibitory law is supposed to have gone into cffe 't , ought to bo priinn fucio evi dence that public sentiment in the Bluffs is stronel } in favor of the saloon. " Peter Smith , alderman from the Fourth wind , was also the recipient of ono of the letters inquiring about the correctness of the mayor's position. He wrote that the mayor very truthfully explained the status of public opinion in the Hluffs , and further added : "If j on can manage to look out for New York , wo aio abundantly able to take care of Iowa.

The meeting of tlio ctti/ens of the First ward at Wheeler & Herald's building last wight was attended by a largo number of the residents of the ward and by all those who live in the vicinity of St. Hernard's hospital. Tlio nleeting was for the purpose of taking conceited and organized action to prevent the erection of tlio proposed asylum for the care of the county's insane within the city limits , and especially within the vicinity of the hospital. The gathering of the citizens was quiet but very earnest. Benjamin Winchester was called to the chair and stated the object of thu meeting. The county board had contracted with the man agement of tlio hospital for tlio cure and cus tody of the insane wlio had been returned from the insane asylums us incurable. The board had placed no restrictions upon the hospital people reg.uding the location of the building , and it was proposed to locate it at the head of Harmony street , In the most beautiful party of the city , within 200 feet of the Second Presbyterian church , and In tlio midst of some of the linest residences in Council Hluffs. Those who had ever lived in the vicinity of a mad house could rcali/o the fearful import of this entoi prise to the people whoso houses wore close by It. The asylum would start out with sixty-seven pa tients , all incurables , und the most destH'rato kind of maniacs. Their shrieks and screams would bo heard all over the neighboiliood and nobody possessed of ordinary mortal nerves would caio to live near such an institution. Nor could It bo safe , for in the Itest built and guarded institutions of this character the madmen huvo frequently escaped and com mitted the most fcartul deeds of violence. After u good deal of discussion , during which there was not n single dissenter , it was shown that there was a universal opposi tion to the proposed location ? * A committee of three , appointed to draft resolutions , re ported the follwlng resolution and petition : Whcions , The biKiulof Cii | > Isoriluis con tracted with the nmniiKciaont of St. Ilemard'h hospital for the curu and custody of tlio comity's Insane ; and , Whereas , 'Iho maiinsoiuoril of said hospital piopobi't to erect a Uiumlng for that pnipose In the Immediate vlolnlty of tin ) hospital , lo the hihthiK and hiopaiahlo Injniv of our piojiorty und homes and endaiiKuiIng thosatutj of uur families ; tliriefoiu ho It Kesohi'd , That \\e , oltl/ons and piopoity owners of the city , whoso homes are thus en dangered , most earnestly piotust against the. location selected , anil y pledge ouiselvcs to use utuiy lumoialili ) moans within our potter to putt cut Hie elect Ion of said building In said tlclnlly ; and \to fuilliei pledge. omulvos to HeroininiMt eainest endeatois to Inllnenco the slstcrsand hospital management toehooso amniuMillahli ) location foi Mild hiilldlng ; and no further Individually pledge ourstiltus lo ciintillnili ) $ to defray llu > costs of any legal proceedings mvensary.

The indignation meeting of the citizens of the Fifth and Sixth wards called out u very largo uttomlanco ol the Interested parties lost evening. There wcro fully 100 voters present , uml every ono knew what ho was there for. The meeting was held at the real estate office of W. W COIIOH on Lower Hroad- way. Mr. Cones was chosen chnlrmun and L. JJ. Shuuert secretary. Tlio chair stated the object of the meeting , which was to pretest against thu action of the'school board In rejecting nil bids for the jiroposcd eight-room school building , unit rcadvcrtlslng for bids for n six-room school building. Several short speeches were made , after which a com mittee wits appointed to draft resolutions. Mr. Shubert stated that the citizens had voted S.tyOOO for a new school building , und that nfter the board had adopted plans , the complexion of the board had been chnngcd by the spring election. The people wanted n school that would ac commodate all grades , and If they could not have It they would have none at all. The committee on resolutions then reported the following resolutions , which wcro unani mously adopted : Whereas.

As lately as last year a portrait of this four-footed friend was among Iho kniek knacks upon the chancellor's writing table. Bismarck oven reserved a corner in his heart for the rooks in Yar/.in park , und it was pleasant to hear him tell how "they taught their children to lly , took them down to the coast to put them on : i worm diet , and withdrew during the winter , like people of fashion to their town residence in Iho towers of Stolpund Sehlawe.

" I SOUTH OMAlff DAILY EVENTS Some Lively Rustling for a Special Meeting of the Council , . 'j A BIO SALOON ridllT IS IMMINENT. Petitions AVI1I he I'ronciitoil I'm y I UK 1'cif Sunday Cloning and n $1- OOU Lloonsb-A Hey Killed by n'Motor. Councilman O'Hourko wns rustling hard yesterday morning to secure signers to a call for n special council meeting nt n o'clock in tlio after noon. The cull specified the business for which the meeting wns called to bo tlio receiv ing of applications for liquor licenses and Iho consideration of the Q street grading mutter. At the llrst opportunity a petition will bo presented the mayor , signed by the advocates of Sunday closing , asking that the saloon li cense bo raised to $1,000 mid that the Slocumb law bo enforced in regard to closing saloons on the Subluth. A petition to that effect was circulated Sunday for signatures nt the churches und hnd a number of mimes added to It yesterday. The suloon men have n fight before them If those who arc in favorof making them adhcro to the law nro true to their word. Sunday advocates of Sundav closing secured evidence against u number of liquor dealers on which to protest the granting of licenses for the coming year Liquid refreshments wcro pur chased and paid for by parties who willswcar to the facts when protest cases como up for hearing. When the new city government wits sworn in each of the new councllmen nnd the mayor alllxed their signature' ' * to the o.ith of ofllco , which wns entered on the minutes. If a clear case is made against u saloonkeeper for violation of the Slocumb law and u council man votes for the granting of a license , his oath to support the law will bo sprung on him over his own signature. All this will have u bearing on the annexa tion election , so the niinexiltionists think. Sundav closing is the stumbling block in the way of the wedding of the two cities The nnnc.xationist.s are determined to make n de.s- perato effort to enforce the law , and .say that whichever .the way the election goes there will be no more open saloons in South Omaha on Sunday. At the council meeting held shortly after ! 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon nothing was done beyond receiving the applications of n number of .saloon men for licenses. The ap plications were referred to the license com mittee and the council adjourned without date. _ A IJoy Killed By 11 Motor Train. Ralph Hitchcock , fourteen years of age , wns run over and instantly killed by n motou train ut 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon near the corner of Twenty-fourth and K streets , lu South Omaha. The boy is the son of Hugh Hitchcock , n traveling man for the Campbell live stock commission company , Ho resides at 2310 South Nineteenth street , near Vinton , in Omaha. Kalph hud spent the early hours of the afternoon in Syndicate p.irk wiMi some playmates. About 4 o'clock they started on foot to Hammond's city meat market , on Twenty-fourth and N streets , where Halph had to purchase sonic meat for .supper. Reach ing Gcrmaniu hall Halph proposed to his coni- p.mion , Fred Heimor , that they jumij u south bound motor train. They did so , Ileimer get ting on ono side and Hitchcock on the other side towards the front of the motor car. Ho rode for n short dis tance jumped off , and'When attempting to get on again missed Ills' footing und wns tin-own under Hio wheels. Both trucks of the for ward cur passed over him , breaking his neck and mangling his left arm and side almost beyond iccognltion. Ho was picked up and can-led into the Hindi residence , on Twenty- fourth street , but died while hit. head lay in n hind-hearted woman's arms. A funeral was passing ut the time of the fatality und con sternation was created among the occupants oi the carnages. The dead boy wns a precocious youth and attended tlio South Omaha public schools. He had woli n Demorcst silver medal for edu cation and was to have been ono of the con- tehtunts for the gold medal at Exposition hall in Omaha tonight. His mother died three years ago yesterday. Ills fnther Is in tlio interior of the state on u business trip und will bo noti fied us .soon us u telegram can roach him of his boy's untimely death. John P. Claroy the lad's uncle , was at his side as soon as possible after ho learned of the accident. Conductor Moycr and Motormau Link wore in charge of the tr.ilu th.it run over the boy. They returned from Omaha us soon as they eould bo relieved and were placed under ar rest by Marshal Mnlouoy. They wcro im mediately released on bonds secured by Superintendent Tucker of tlio motor com pany. Coroner Hnrrigan ordered the remains re moved U > He.ifey it Ho.ify's , in Omaha , where an inquest will bo held this afternoon. Astounded at the F The exhibit of South Omaha's present and future financial condition in Sunday morn ing's lliiu was a revelation to hundreds of citucns und taxpayers of the Mugio City. Of eouj-so the iigures presented are disputed by the rabid opponents of the measuio and cred ited to an earnest advocate of annexation who Is a member of the city council. The army of figures were collected by u member of Tin : BIIK'H rcportorlul force who has had several years' experience in the county treas urer's otlic-o in Omaha and whoso knowledge of the account books kept in treasurers' ofllces enabled him to proceed with his Inves tigations without outside assistance. A prolMlilo losult of this presentation of Jlgnics will be a request by leading taxpayers to the next meeting of the council that a coin- milteo bo unpointed to investigate and ropoit before the annexation election on the financial condition of the city. A truthful report will muko mote votes for uuiioxutioii than any other move that could bo made.

"Yes , gentlemen , Small Hopes , Vnn- dcrbilt's $10,000 trotter , is now limiting nn express wagon in Now York , and it's a hluuno. IIo was the grcutont 'ringer' on the American turf , nnd miiilo fortunes for moro than ono man. I ought to know , for I was his 'rubber. ' " There were a number of gentlemen in tlio reading room of the Lolnntl hotel , and they nro all admirers of the trotter , says the Chicago Journal. A discussion arobo about Vande'rbilt's and Bonner's possessions of hor&o ilesh , when the 'rub ber' or groom of Small Hopes opened their eyes about the horse wnoso niimo was on the lips of members of every trot ting absouiation in America fourteen years ago. Af lor a successful career of live years Iho clique who handled him were delected in Boston , ami after con siderable trouble had been experienced , the greatest lurf scandal of modern limes was oxpo&cd. The horse was forever barred at the meeting of the National Turf Congress , and his driver , Hill McGuigan , was also barred from over driving u trotting hoi'bo for a purse or stake over an asso ciation course. After much litigation the famous horse was sold to Vander- bilt. With Lady Mao ho annihilated all learn records , and in his old ugo is compelled lo draw an express wagon. He was bought by his present owner for SIM. SIM."He "He must bo about nineteen years old now , " said Iho former groom , who is now in the real eslato business , "but when ho was five years old ho trotted many a milo in 12lo. : Ho was the clean est trotlor that ever looked through blinkers ; no boots , braces , check-reins or any modern trotting paraphernalia for him. And when it came to heats he WUH the greatest stayer I ever heard of. " Queen Victoria's In ono senbo , bays a London loiter , I may chain to have mel the prince con sort , the adored husband of Queen Vic toria. Fancy mo , an American girl just out of my teens , turning this corner and lhat in the multitudinous &lreots of Lon don , and suddenly meeting Iho queen's majesty going lo open parliament in her wounderfnl glass coach , with her beauti ful consort sitting by her side ! That was a bite , I promise you ! Long years have elapsed , and many and many u country gentleman have mine eyes beheld , but never no , never the equal of Prince Albert. His profile was jiiirolv Grecian , lite complexion fair , his hair and whiskers dark , his o.vcs of lh < 5 richest brown and glowing with Iho most boul- ful expression of tenderness and love for 1iis peerless wife. His form , too , was superb , and his bearing distinguished in Iho highest degree. No ono who has over seen the prince consort can wonder that the ouecn incessanlly mourns the loss of such a paragon. In Ihoso days her majesty was very handbomo , with neck , shoulders and arms of surpassing beauty. Conjure the vision of this royal pair to your mind , the queen wearing i obes of stale and a diamond crown , Prince Albert in uniform , with many jeweled orders , both seated together in a coach of glass and gilding , drawn by six or eight horses , richly caparisoned and led by grooms in scarlet livery , followed by a gorgeous rotimio ah , well , the days for such fairy blory-book splendor s'cems to have lied. A Novel Application of Photography. My attention has recently boon ealk'd to several unique applications of Iho art of photography , ono of which , in par ticular , rolutuHto building matters and must bo of interest to all engaged in the building trades , says Carpentry and Building. A graphic history of Iho now library building at Washington is buing prepared.Vlion it is completed , it is safe lo say , it will bo ono of the most unique narratives- a building that has ever been propnrod. The pencils used are the rays of the sun , ami the paper is tlio sonsitlvo plalo of a photographic camera. At regular intervals from the top of the building , occupied by the superintending architect mid his force of draughtsmen , a camera is turned upon Iho work , which al present consists only of a great hole ( Ing out in the wamro just cast of the oupltol grounds.
