SEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS , Sorao Alterations Made in the Charter for the Ghautauqua Motor , COUNCILMEN TRY TO PROTECT THE CITY , Safeguards Thrown About the Fran- ulilHo mul HoHtrluilons I'lnccil on tlio Conijmny It May Not He Accepted. The city council met as a committee of the whole yesterday afternoon for the purpose of considering the Chautnuqua motor project. A revised and improved orulnnnco had been drawn up which it was supposed would tend to protect the city from the motor company more effectually than the ono first considered. The ordinance , as It was finally decided to pass It Into the council at the evening session , bore but llttlo resemblance to the ono which was presented to the council a week ago Monday night. The name of the company had been clmngoJ from the Council Bluffs street railway company to the Omaha & Council Bluffs bridge and railway company. That part of tlio ordinance wliich granted the right of way along McPheraon nvonuo to the city limits , and along Hubbard street from Cannlne street to the city limits , was scratched out. A elauso was Inserted com pelling the company to place suitable stieet ciosslngs at Intervals of 400 feet. All the section relating to the recula- ! lion of furo was scratched out except the ! part llxlng the faro from point to lioiat within the city limits at live cents. Tne ordinance also provides that the Hacks should bo laid at tlio established grade , and the expense of bringing the read to the establiMifd grade should bo paid by thu company. The paving between the tracks and ono foot on each side was to bo paid for by the company , and where the track should be laid on streets alrcadv paved , the price of the pav ing should bo paid to thu property owners' be fore the tracks were laid. After these changes had been made , and n clause had been attached stipulating that the company should Ille Us written acceptance of the conditions , and that it should build and operate its road on or before July 1 , IMS , there was hardly enough of the original ordi nance left to recogni/o it by. Manager Htuleton stated thst ho had his tlouots us to whether the motor company would bo willing to build under such rigid conditions. There wuro so many things in It thnt had not been In the minds of the direct ors when the original ordinance had been drafted that it would bo lllio beginning the work nil over again. The company will have n meeting some day this week , at which tlmo the proposition made to It by the assembly association will bo acted upon , and It will bo decided once for all whether or not the motor will bo laid to tha Chautauqua grounds this year. The Oiillnaituc I'asMcil. The council met last evening , all being present. Tne main object was the disposal j of the ordinance granting the right of way to the Omaha & Council BlulTs bridge com- uany to build n raijway to the Chautauuua grounds. After it had been read. Alderman Casper rose and moved that an nUdltlonul section bo made , stipulating that the company make at least three t.ilpj dailv the year round over that part of the road lying within the city limits. His amendment was adopted unanimously. The ordinance \\as then passed , Wind , Wood , Van Brunt , Smith and Pace voting aye. Caspea and Graves no and Brown passing. Before the city begins the work of widen ing the tsrpcjts , the motor company will bo required to lllo n guarantee that it will build the roau and grade the streets as required by the ordinance. The Globe and Nonpareil were declared the ofllclnl papers of the city , Alderman Casper voting no. A resolution compelling the property own ers on the cast sldo of Ponrl street from Broadway to First avenue to lay a sidewalk of Imitation stone was passed. The bridge across Indian creek on Sixth street was reported In bad couditlon , and was ordered repaicd. W. Woodward , presented the claims of the various property owners on Hidgo and Canning streets for damages on ac count of the widening of those streets. Ho said that the property owners had gotten together and decided that it would suit them best for the damages. They had selected D. W. West as their arbitrator , and would like 'to ' have the council select another who should meet West and assess the dnmnees at whatever figure they should sco fit. Ho then read a list ot names of the property owners , with the amount of damages claimed by each. As thoreadlnc went on , and tlio amounts varied all tlio way from $100 to ? 'JOO , the faces of the aldermen began to lengthen. When no had llnUhcd Alderman Wood said that the property would have to bo con demned ; arbitration was no go. W. A. My nster said ho thought It would bo a good Idea for the council to wait awhile and see whether the motor company really meant to go by the Canning street route. Ho hap pened to know that the route out East Broad- wiy was being considered favorably by the members of the company ; a subscription list had been circulated among the property own ers and n considerably larger sum had been secured than among the Canning pcoplo. Besides that , there would only bo a 1 per cent grade , against n a per cent by thu Conning route. As it was largely a matter of dollars and cents with the company ho thought the company would very likely adopt the East Broadway route. Ho was in formed tnat the council had passed u resolu tion requiring the motor eompiny to guur- nnteo the construction of the toad as fixed in the ordinance before condemnation proceed ings were begun. The bonds of Frank Levin , chief engineer of the tire department ; A. E. A very , street commissioner , and A. E. McClarcn , poll tax collector , were approved. Ice ! Ici-I Ice ! ! !

The prosecuting witness was iJertlo Allcm , a dusky hued damsel with whom Jones has been living for some tinio past at ll'JO ' Bread war , just west of the Northwest ern tracks. The woman claimed that ho had threatened to kill her about u week ago , with a rn/or that ho flourished about. Monday night ho secured u hatchet and came after her wiUi It , swearing by all the things ho knew tnat ho would split her head open. The woman made her escape and ran to the police station , where she secured the services of Olllcor O'Connor ' and had the frenzied darkoy put behind the bars. Yesterday morning Ho asked for a continu ances until tomorrow morning , which was granted him. William Libbeka and William Crlss wore before the court , ono on n charge of assault and battery and the ottier on u charge of dis turbing the peace. The two engaged In a light Monday night at a colored dive on North Main street , and Libbclca told Criss that ho woulil bo n subject for the corouer before- morning.

His friends had been scclnp the tteoplo of the other sldo in a qulot way , for the last day or two , and had been endeavoring to bring about a cessation of hostilities by means of n compromise. The compromise failed to come , but the resigna tion was handed in without further udo , nnd Justice Patton retired to private life. The resignation changes the aspect of af fairs so far us the legal proceedings which it was intended to institute against him were concerned. The civil case which the super visors instructed the county attorney to com mence for the purpose of removing him from oftlco will b& rendered unnecessary , nnd the case will bo dropped. Whether any crlmlna. proceedings will bo commenced cannot bo stated dcllnltclv. The township trustees will elect a suc cessor to the ofllee.

' "From Sire to Son"wlth Milton Nobles In the stellar role , was"produced last evening ut the Boyd before an u'dletice which appre ciated the sterling work'of the author-actor. There is a plcturosuuoness about all that Mr. Nobles does which appeals to the artistic minds of his audience nnd raises nh efforts above the level of commonplace , which Is hardly the distinguishing feature of so many so-called American dramas. In the character of Alfred Armltaqo , who assumes the nnma of John Oablcy , for rea sons best known to himself , Mr. Nobles has ono of the strongest character studies ho has given the stage In recent years. It Is a con sistent , well conceived typo of character , whoso counterpart may still bo foand In the newly located mining camps of the west , whose nobility of character and devotion to principle teaches a moral quite refreshing in these days of stago-craft which largely runs to that which is tbo reverse of noble and heroic. Mr. Noblo's assumption of the character shows profound study , nnd Is a legitimate portrayal of one of the hardest roles in the domain of the modern drama. The actor-author , who lu tbo old days was a member ol the slock company at thu Acad emy of Music , now the Peoples' theatre , I ? supported by n very capable company. Mr. C. F. Howard has an exceedingly strong character study in Peter Grimes , postmaster nnd express agent at Yuba , and ho manes the most of the opportunity af forded Him. It is deservedly one of the earn est porttalturcs of the stage and too much cannot be said in favor of its excellent delin eation. Mr. L. J. Loring plavs Dr. Mandrake very acceptably , as does Mr. Hurt G. Clarke the role of Job Cadwalader , sheriff of Yuha county. A small part , that of Abe Isaacs , Is played very creditably by John H. Heady , who , while his opportunity Is limited , makes the best of the lines ho has. Dollie Nobles Is charming In the dual char acter of Mnblo Armltago and Mabio the daughter. Throughout she is the conscien tious actress who makes the most of her op portunities. Tlio rest of the cast are acceptable , giving n finished performance of a distinctively American melodrama.
