Most of the time was spent in dollberatlnc upon quo-uloiiK con nected with municipal affairs , and n number of Mops wcro tnlicn which will bo apt to load to important legislation in the near future. The question of allowing cities hav ing a certain population to levy a tax of 5 mills or less for city lighting purposes was brought up , but a resolution favoring it uos defeated , owing to the decided stand taken by the niufls delegation. "In looking around , " said Mavor Macrae In speaking of this question , " 1 iind that Council Bluffs is in a much better condition in every way than almost any otnor city in the state. Many cities are heavily in debt and would llko to have a way invented for raising the necessary funds to carry on their running expenses , Wo uro not troubled in that wny , and so our delegation opposed the plan with all our might , nnd induced the Burling tor. and several other delegations to look nt the thing in our way. " This plan did not work , however , in con- ildorlng tbo question of allowing cities to levy n tax of 5 mills or less for flro pro tection , for a resolution favoring it was id opted. On comparing notes tbo various mayors found thut they Iind all had trouble in recon ciling Iho ofllcei of marshal and chief of police , there being considerable friction be tween the incumbents. A resolution was passed favoring the passage of a law uniting the two onices in one and allowing the chief of police to perform the duties of both , pro vided bis appointment should bj loft in thu bands of the mayor and not the people.

"After leaving Omaha 1 visited Europe , and for live months had free access to Mr. Henry Irviug's theater in London. I took no pait in the performances , but made a study of staga craft and received many useful hints from Mr. Irving. On returning to America I again took up amateur theatricals , and decided to gouixm tbo stago. "My professional debut was made in 'The Fool's Hovonge , ' In Ib7l ) .

The llrjuor men were confident that the prohibi tory law would bo promptly . 'opouled by the legislature , nnd two months ago thov readily entered into stipulations with the Law and Order league that if the prohibitory law was not repealed by the Loplslaturo by February 1 they would appear in the district court nnd plonci guilty to the charge of contempt of court , which carries with it the closing of their places with line and possible imprison ment. If the law should bo repealed they still agreed to pay costs of the proceedings that bad been begun against ttiom. The agreement at least gave tbem two months of treedom. Dut now the time has expired , and the Law and Order league Is enforcing the agreement to the letter. The saloon men are forced to close or go to Jml , and in addition suffer confiscation of all HxturiH , etc. Many of tnom are leavingtown to avoid payniontnf the liniis. which the plea of guilty Involves , the minimum tine being $300.

If Scott's Emulsion did nothing more than take that taste away , it would save the lives of some at least of those that put off too long the means of recovery. It does more.
