The spoctnclo of a man covered with blood
and handcuffed being whirled rapidly through
the streets in the pollco patrol wagon at
tracted a good deal of attention last evening ,
The fellow was arrested by Officer Doyle in
Lewis' stable , the old street cor barn on
Broadway , whevo ho had taken refuge after
having committed a murderous assault upon
Mrs , William Bohniug , who keeps a little
grocery and provision store at 012 Broadway ,
Her assailant gives the uamo of Ilarrj

edibles Ho asked for a knlfo to open th <
box and the woman handed him a largi
butcher knife. As soon as tie got it in hi :
possession ho flourished It In a ineuacini
manner and walked out of the store , tnkliu
it and his purchases with him without payini
for them. Last
evening ho returned am

victual line but was instantly recognized In
the woman and asked to pay for the stuff hi
bad already taken. Ho refused , and was work
lug his way around behind tlio counter when
it butcher's cleaver was lying. The womnt
seized him and told her little daughter to rui
out and call a policeman. The fellow draw i
knife and began to viciously slash tin
woman. Four or live deep cuts were in
fllcted upon the back of her left hand am
several on the loft side of her face. She holi

Thcro was n little attention attracted by
the fact that the contest among the candi
dates for Justices of the pence and their
friends was u little moro bitter nnd spirited
fhun even the great , light for congressman
In this city during the Into election. Kacn of
the six candidates hud their friends nt work
early and late , and they worked hard nnd
earnestly. When the ballots were counted
the effects of this flcht were shown In the re
markable variation iu the number of ballots
cast for the various candidates , some
running far ahead of their ticket
and others falling sadly behind. It
was presumed that the fight was
duo to the anxiety of the candidates to get
some pretty fat offices , for It was generally
understood that the Justices' dockets in Coun
cil Bluffs showed frequent entries of large
nnd fat fees which mauo thorn about the best
offices In the county. However this may
have been In the past , it will not bo so In the
future , foronn very Important source ot In-
coma lias been lopped off by the Nebraska
law prohibiting the trnnsfer'of accounts to
Iowa collectors for gnmliilico purposes. The
law has been In operation for some tlmo , but
it is only within the last two mouths that It
has been sensibly felt in the Council Bluffs
Justices' olllccs.
Up to September last the average number
of garnishment cases brought into thcso
courts by which the Nebraska creditors who
cinched their delinquents amounted to twenty
In .lustico Burnett's court and about the
the same in the tribunals presided over by
Scliuiv. and Hcndricks. Some months this
average would bo largely exceeded , and It
never fell short of that number. The avcr-
ngo - amount of justice's nnd constable's
fees In each enso would bo about $7.00.
This would give a general aver
age total of $150 per month realized alone
from this class of business by each of the
thrco Justices , or $4M a month paid by the
Nebraska debtors as clear gain to the Council
Bluffs Justices and constables. The Nebraska
law hits cut this down to aremnrkablooxtent.
Last month Burnett only had two of thcso
foreign garnishment cases , and the other Jus
tices had ahout-tho same number.
This sudden nnd permanent elimination of
from $ . " > to § 7 a day net cash profits has made
the Justices' oftlccs not nonrly so profitable
nnd desliablo as they , used to be , and the
successful candidates who have carried on
such a spirited campaign will not reap the
harvests anticipated. However , the fees for
the regular business make the offices quite
profitable and a handsome living for the In
cumbents.
The overthrow of the foreign garnismont
business in this city Is something that is not
to bo'very much regretted , for It tins been
the means of inflicting great nnd lasting hard
ships upon many worthy men while Justly
compelling others to pay their bills. It was
chlolly used by Nebraska collectors
against Union Pacific and Burlington rail
way employes , and whether the debt was
just or not they have ground the money from
them and caused them the additional hard-
snip of losing their places by the operation of
the railway company's rules requiring the
discharge of men whoso creditors garhisheo
the companies. The local Justices bavo not
exceeded their functional limits , but tlio Ne
braska creditors and collectors have used
them to the fullest and often to the crudest
extent , and while they have made a few dollars
lars from the business good men and the city
itself have been made to suffer.

Slinll AVomaii Vote ?
This momentous question was being de
cided all over the United States yesterday
afternoon at a general election. There was
perhaps not a city , hamlet or a village In all
the broad land where the little whlto ballots
with their bold'lettering "for" ' or "against"
worn not Ilu'tterlni ? in the brcczo and being
dropped by fair and homey hands Into the
ballot boxes. While the election was genoraj
not everybody was entitled to n vots. It was
a general election held by the members of
the Methodist church upon a proposition
brought before the last general conference of
the church held In Now York city In Mayaud
arose over the application of two women from
Nebraska to scats in the conference of lay
delegates. They wcro regularly appointed
oy the local conference and proaontcd their
credentials in duo form , but their application
was tin Innovation , and the matter had to bo
settled by a general vote of the delegates of
the conference. A somewhat exciting scene
took place , nnd the cause of the ladies was
defended nnd assailed by eloquent tongues.
An effort was made to hnvethuin admitted on
a point of law but it was finally de
feated and the members of the con
ference settled the matter for all
time being by balloting. The result
was the defeat of the ladles and they wcro
denied admission as delegates. The action
was urged as bolnc contrary to the spirit of
the church times , and It was evident that It
would ho n constantly recurring problem. It
was believed the Indies In the church all
over the land would not submit to the rul
ing , and the general conference would .ho
obliged to settle the question of admitting
delegates at every meeting. A resolution
was finally presented providing for n general
election at which all members of the
church over twenty-one years of ago and
In good standing should bo entitled to a vote
upon the proposition , "Shall women bo ad
mitted as lay delegates to the electoral and
general conferences of ttio Methodist
cmireul" The resolution provided that the
enaction should bo held In every church in
the United States , and that there- should bo
the freest possible expression of the desire
of the Indies themselves , the male members
nnd the minister. * . The resolution carried
nnd the general election , yesterday was the
result.
The balloting by the members of the First
Methodist church was held in the Masonic
temple. The polls were open nt 1 o'clocic. It
vas the most quiet and orderly election over
eld in the city. The ladles , who were the
iiterested parties , did not turn out nnd
loctloncor like the men do. They
lid not remain around the hall long
inough after voting to get acquainted with
, ho gentlemen who have been curtailing
.heir privileges for all the years of the past.
Thcro was no coffee booths , refreshments or
my effort of any kind made to influence
rotcrs. Ono cruet provision of the resolu-
lon under which the election was held was
, hnt which denied the young ladles who wcro
not twenty-one the right to vote.
The election was had under the super-
Islon 'of a committee consisting of Mrs. L.
W. Tullcys , Hov. Dr. T. McStuart , tlio new
pastor , and Mr. J. II. McArthur. Printed
ballots wcro used of which the following is a
copy : "i''or ' the Admission of Women as Lay
Delegates. "
The polls closed at 0:30 : sharp last evening ,
nnd although there nro 750 members of the
church who wcro entitled to vote , only sixty
ol thorn took the trouble to cast their ballots.
Of this number fifty-nine dropped an affirm
ative ballot into the pasteboard box that
stood In front of the committee on a little
tablo. Ono person only had the courage to
cast a negative vote , and that parson's name
was charitably withheld from the reporters.
The election iu the other Methodist
churches was held last evening.

The Pauper Sick.
The county board of supervisors yesterday
considered the matter of caring for the slek
and infirm paupers. There being no poorhouse -
house or county hospital , It has been neces
sary for seme time to provide for them at the
: iospituls. The Sisters ot Mercy nt St. Ber
nard's hospital nro well prepared to care for
such cases , and the Woman's Christian as
sociation hospital Is also provided with the
necessary moans. There have been patients
at both 'hospitals for whom the county had
to pay. Yesterday the board decided to enter
Into a contract with the sisters of St. Ber
nard's hospital for caring tor all the sick and
infirm who were paupers , the price to bo $ . > n
week for the sick and § 3 for the aged and In
firm. The contract was to he for thrco years.
The women connected with the other hos
pital were preparing to mnko a somewhat
similar proposal to the board , but had de
layed in appearing , thinking that there was
plenty of time , as the board would be in ses
sion all the week. They were surprised
when they learned that the board had already
decided to give all such cases to the other
hospital. While there Is no feeling of rivalry
or desire to pull against nu institution en
gaged in the same line of charitable work ,
yet they felt tnat whatever public money
was paid out for cases of need , it
should ho divided somewhat equita
bly. At the women's hospital there
had been numerous charity cases sent there
by the county , for which only $2 n week had
been allowed , this pittance covering the ex
pense of care and treatment , even in cases of
severe illness. The ladles hurriedly gath
ered their chief officials , and late In the after
noon appeared bof ere the county boark. They
entered a protest tgalnst the board entering
into the proposed contract , and offered to
care for the county's sick at $1 n week , a dollar
lar a week less than the sum proposed for the
Sisters. The board concluded to deliberate
n little further before rushing into the con
tract.
Both hospitals merit nil the 'help and en
couragement which private citizens and pub-
lie ofllelals can give them. The care of the
insane of the county has already been given
to St. Bernard's hospital. It seems that in
fairness the other hospital should not bo IK
nored altogether. The women who have It in
charge have undertaken to lift a heavj
financial load and are doing a largo amount
of work without any financial reward. Ir
this respect it is similarly situated to St
Bernard's hospltnl , which Is also under i
financial strain.
It Is said that some of the property owners
Iu the vicinity of the W. C. A. hospital nr <
incensed at the location of the hospital ii
their vicinity , and that this influences hai
been brought to bear Indirectly upon tin
board to Induce It to avoid giving the hosnl
tal any aid. It seems that this can hardly hi
the case , for u much moro Jlcrco and opei
opposition has been manifested against tin
location of St. Bernard's hospital , espcclall ;
in regard to the keeping of the insane there

flaming headline , "I'abllo Notice Concemlni

not requiring thcjil , 'Jo provide themselves

ized parties will call oil you , nnd will sell nnd
put up for you nt a trifle above cost of maul-
incture , wlilcli wjll.bo $1. " The name of
the manufacturer U not given , nor
nny other , , \vny of identifying
the box but the circular Is so worded and
printed ns to carry ihe Impression that It Is
the "onichil" box. Inquliy of Postmaster
Treynorled to u6 enlightenment. Ho said
ho know nothing abqut It. and had received
no notice of any box. being declnrcd official.
Ho did not know even whether the box thus
advertised was a good ono or not , or whether
It was cheap or 'dear , It seems that the
scheme is nn Ingenious one to advcrtUo and
sell some private box. Citizens nro therefore
loft to exerciio their own Judgment the same
ns In purchasing any -other commodity , nnd
should not bo misled by thinking It is the
only box in the market , and the ono the pur
chase ot which w urged by the postofllco of
ficials.
The postoftlco department some tlmo ngo
advertised for tlio cheapest and best devieo
for n box of this kind. A largo number have
been presented In this competition , and when
n decision Is reached the box thus approved
will doubtless bo put on the market , and the
public will ho duly informed. Ills generally
expected that this competition will bring out
some form ot a box which will bo much
cheaper , it not better , than those already hi
the market. Many are delaying purchasing
nny box until this decision Is reached. This
may make tlio snlo of other good > boxes a lit
tle slow , and load manufacturers to attempt
to crowd sales before the now box appears.
It Is possible that the trade name of the
box thus-sought to bo sold Is called "ofllclal , "
the same as It might bo called "safety" or
"lldcllty" box , hut boron il this- Postmaster
Troynor knows of no reason for calling It ofll-

John W. Paul of Omaha Is not losing his
faith in the future of Council Bluffs , but for
some tlmo past lie has boon loslni ; his sand ,
and losing It at such a rate that it has bccoino
a serious matter with him. It is not the
"sand" that Is a common western pseudonym
for courage , but It Is the sand "that Mr. Paul
obtained when ho acquired title to a liu-co
nnd valuable lot of real estate In this city ,
especially on some tracts of land lying on the
river northwest of the city. There are some
line sand banks there and they nro of easy
access via a well traveled road. The land Is
not fenced , but it is certainly private prop
erty. For a long tlmo past Council Bluffs
contractors have been hauling sand from
this point , aud Iu fair weather during the
building season , which lusts about all the
year hero , there bavo been on an
average of about llfty loads of sand hauled
frcm Mr. Paul's each day. There is scarcely
a building In the city that has not some of
this sand in It. Contractors und private In
dividuals have cone ihoro and taken it with

Mr. Paul has concluded that if It is worth
hauling It is worth paying for , and ho has
taken stops to assertTlils proprietor } ' rights.
The stops wcro 'tak'cn ' yesterday when his
agent , .T. E. Hunt of this city , filed un Information
mation in Justice Sch HNS' court charging
Martin Williams nnd James Hughes with
trespass. They have been hauling sand from
the place and 1'nul concluded that they would
do as well as anybody to make an example of.
They were arrested and taken before the
Justice yesterday afternoon but before the
case was Uilcen up or definitely set for trial
they took a change of , venue to Justice Bur
nett. The case will bo heard some
time next week , . provided thereIs
any further prosecution. It is understood
that Mr. Paul itoes not dojlro to prosecute ,
but only to prevent tlio wholesale anpropria-
tlodof his land , which is constantly becom
ing more valuable as building in the two cities
progresses. On the other hand , the men nr-
rested'ttro not willful trespasser * . 'They were
only following a general movement when
they took the sand. It Is probable there will
he no further prosecutions and no further at

CITV of GUATEMALA , Nov. 12. [ New York
Herald Cable Special to Tun BKK , ] Intense
excitement prevails hero over the prospect of
a general war in Central America. General
Ignaclo Alatorre , the Mexican minister , was
at the foreign department lor a long tlmo
today nnd it is believed his mission has been
to persundo General Barillas to recall the
troops ho has sent to the relief of Bogran , and
the public in general coinma'nd his pacific
course.
Barillas hold an audience today with Scnor
Arnllono. the Spanish minister , and United
States Minister MIzncr , but they refused to
talk. No definite Information is to bo obtained
srom any sourc3 as to what the government
Intends to do in th ? present crisis. Humors
are many but all of an oxtrnvagaht nature.
Th o combination of ingredients found In
Aycr's ' Pills renders them tonic and curative
as well as cathartic. For this reason they
are the best medicine- for people of costive
habit , as they restore the natural action of
the bowels , without debilitating.

About the Art IslHuliu llnvo I'lo-
tiircsou I'/xlilbltluu.
"Art , " says n famous essayist , in defining
lie term , "Is a priori capacity of distin
guishing the beautiful from the ugly , the
jrand from the grotcsiiuo. " And the dcflnl-
ion Is so conclso that for all practical pur-
wscs tt answers the Inquiry which you hear
on every band , In the gallery of the Western
\rt association : "Wlmtisartl"
It is the "capacity of distinguishing the
) cautlful from the ugly. " Vet that capacity
s modified .when ono remembers
hat the work on the walls of the exhibition
ms been done , not by men and women fit-
nou.i in the art world , but by amateurs
nostlj , who have had llltlo opportunity to
mprovo the native talents which assert
homsclvcs , willy nllly. And the more credit
to the exhibitors who have gene on in the
vork , laboring under many disadvantages ,
actuated by n common motive , the furtuer-
ment of the nrtlstiu llfo of the metropolis.
A dozen years ago the eastern press , and
lartlculnrly the lljomry journals , wcro never
ieotnlngly so happy save when they wcro say-
ng something disparagingly of western ctil-
uro , which comprehensively embraced all
'onus of litcmturo mid art. But those days
lavegono by , and it is the west that Is giving
o art centers the coming artists.In addition to
idvnnccd thinkers in all brunches of educa
tional life.
And It is Just such associations as the ono
now holding its third annual exhibition in
the Lifo building which nro responsible for
the higher Ideals that nro gradually turning
vest ward the tide of enlightenment so grunh-
cally foretold by Bishop Burkley in his
"Star of .Empire. "
Taken as a whole the exhibition Is worthy
of the greatest praiseIt marks an era in our
own small world from which must date the
beginning of a moro elevated order of tilings.
Ono feature of the exhibition , howoyer ,
will attract attention and cause considerable
speculation , and that is the smallness of the
yatcr color exhibit as compared with that of
ast year. The excellent display last season
gave brilliant promiseof a still greater ad
vance , but somehow or other the artists who
wcro devoting all their time and attention to
iqnarellos last year are now found working
n oils , and the number of water colors has
diminished per consequence.
"Tho practice of water color , however ,
and the public exhibitions and sales of water
colors are comparatively now in America ,
and there are a good many people who ,
while they acknowledge ptho beauty
of the paintings and their desirability
as additions to collections of pictures often
ask 'aro the colors permanent ! Cnn wo de
pend upon their nut fading or changing us
wo can in our sollu oil paintings ) ' "
What a peculiar statement. The Aincrl-
II people shy of the water color art because
its productions may not bo permanent ?
Who said that !
Messrs A. F. Billows ( deceased ) , William
Hart , C. I' . Cranch , John M. Falconer and
Gilbert Burling. When ! Twenty years
igo when the American Society of Painters
In Water Colors was In the lirst year of its
existence.
They formed the editing committee of n
pamphlet of some thirteen pages which that
society put forth in the Interest of tlio art to
which they wcro devoted. They said in
opening :
"Tho formation during the past year of the
American Society of Painters in Water
Colors in Now York Is a now and important
study among the artists : and the spirit
with whlcliit has been carried forward may
Justly bo regarded as a sign of great promise
ot\ future excellence In this beautiful de
partment of art. The enthusiasm with
which this step has been greeted by a largo
number of our painters , the unquestioned
success of the first exhibition of water colors
on the walls of the National academyandtho
favor which the public has shown In the no
tice bestowed upon tlio paintings , as well as
In the purchase of many of them , tire certain
ly encouraging facts to which it behooves the
artists and the public to give a good deal of
thought and attention. "
What a chnngo since then 1 It is no longer
necessary to bid for public recognition. The
water color exhibition is rightfully placed
alongside it ? more numerous but none the
greater artistic neighbor , the oil exhibit , and
it is found to bo as well up in ability as its
sister.
There is nothing more cheerful than a mod
ern display of water colors , American at that.
Not only from their surface lightness , clear
ness and brilliancy , but because they scorn to
htivo been produced \vith so little effort.
They do not pivo evidence of having been
worked over and tolled over , as is so often
the case with an oil , till the poor author , de
spondent at his 111 success , said : "O. . well ,
I'll leave well enough alone , " and signed his
name to the c.mvna and sent it to the exhibi
tion. On the contrary , the effect of a water
color does not llo heavy upon one's moral
faculties ; the artist tins seemed to sinllo or
whistle as ho worked each step In the accom
plishment of his purpose , which seems to
nave been taken lightly.
Ho has carried no weighty burden of. In
decision as ho progressed and no heavy foot
prints mark his course. Ho scorns to liayo
been sure of every line , every brush stroke ,
every value , every tone. His work com
pleted comes to un cud like "a fairy tale that
is told" and he has laid away his colors with
a chuckle of triumph , not a sigh.
While the present water color exhibition Is
not us largo as on previous years , it is , as a
whole , just ns creditable. Coniliicd mostly
to the women , it shows what a year's con
scientious work will do among those who are
by nature fitted to bo strongcrwatercolorista
than the men.
Although the Chases , the Iliploys , the
Hamiltons. thaDarloys are rightly famous in
this most delightful of all art studieibecause
they haye gotten out of the conventionalities ,
they have cut loose from the environments
of oil.
Miss Shulzo has two little landscapes
on display which show her artistic
feelings to tin appreciable extent.
Always conscientious , oven when slio is en
gaged upon copy worlc.shoshowsa knowledge
of color which , after all , Is ono of the great
bug bears of the profession. Probably her
best work in this department Is a landscape
which has a faint twilight effect imparted to
it , whether of mornfhg or night is a serious
question for solution. The gray tone the ar
tist has given to the subject seems to have
been well considered before a brush was put
to the canvas. It is pleasing and restful , Just
what you would look for In a water color. The
otherfanihcupi'ls done in green and thorough
ly well handled. So well.Indeedthat you can
not help but conclude that this is by far the
better effort of the twobccau o Miss Selmlzo
knows the relative value of given as a color.
Miss Hosowater is represented by a study
of panslos. They are exquisitely drawn ,
and have the bloom which the

mid of some ot the other subjects in the ex-
htultlon. Mtxs Kosewntor bos had an excel
lent art education and Is qulto capable ot
doing both water and oil In n manner at euro
worthy of the highest pralso and hcrstuAly of
apples in artistic in the highest degree.
Miss Hull la represented by a dozen or moro
water colors , some of them exceedingly Rood.
Two or thrco sketches of the bench nt Nantucket -
tucket nnd Martha's "Vineyard show that
they have been painted con ntnoro. They nro
airy , bright , suggestive of the gladsoino vaca
tion tlnys which wcrccnjoycd snlrtlngtho "an-
linn breath" which Swinburne speaks about.
Hut there will bo a divided opinion as to
which Is her best work , whether It Is the
sketch of ono of the daughters of Martha era
a study of Concord grapes. Both show abil
ity , but tlio work on the "Sea Nymph" is
seemingly much stronger than that displayed
la any of her other subjects , lint Miss Hall
should studiously avoid the purples which so
dominate her pictures. It is not n particu
larly pretty color and requires n consummate
knowledge of relation.
Miss * Lynn Curtis , * ono ot
the season's buds , who was
a pupil nt Notre Dame , shows that she has
some other knowledge above the latest
dances nnd tlio Hinull talk of society. Her
work Is modest , and on thntncwuntls worthy
of great commendation. She dot's not attempt
mposKlblo landscapes nnd marines , but tlnds
her happiest vela in painting acorns , chest
nuts , oak leaves , two or throe bonks and u
very dainty study of the Virginia creeper.
Appreciating the limitations of her art , Miss
Uintla has done what n number of other am
ateurs should have done , confined herself to
her sphere rather tlinn make herself ridicu
lous by essaying that which Is beyond her
ability.
Miss Harriet Ucrshy Is a new-comer to
Uinaha , but two of her studios , hung Just
below the line , for reasons qulto beyond ox-
planntlon , nro far above the average in merit.
Ono Is thollguro of a girl , whloh the urtl&t
chooses td call "By Canillo Light , " nnd
the other Is the tlguro of a boy.
Both nro treated In a broad , uncon
ventional manner , the drawing being
iinrUcnlurly praiseworthy. Miss llershy
knows art and will undoubtedly make a name
for herself in the local world.
Mrs. Catliu 1ms n very directive study of
apples , the color nnd composition being quite
charming.
Miss Kthel Kv.ins has done some very
beautiful work. Several tlshlng smacks In
sepia being piirtlcularlv true In color and

and will naturally escape the attention which
would otherwise Uo paid to them.
