Last evening about S o'clock someone
was hoard giving vent lo the most blood
curdling groans In front of the roiiaonco of
Hov , T. V. 'Ihlckstim on Willow nvonuo.
Mr. Thlckstun proceeded to Investigate nnd
found a young man loaning up against a tree
In an altitude that suggested the possibility
thut something bo had mid for supper disa
greed with him. Upon being questioned ho
snld his name was Ernest Cullls , and that
ho was the young man who had won so much
notoriety bv falling desperately In love with
Mrs. Dead ) , widow fit ) years of ago or
thereabouts. His love affair had
como to a disastrous ondlne of
late nnd bis swoaUoirt bad
repulsed his attentions effectually by having
him arrested for larceny , vagrancy , threat
ening to kill , and a number of other crimes.
Life bad at la t become unbearable to him ,
nnd ho had decided to end It by emptying au
ounce or so of laudanum down his alimen
tary canal. The laudanum was making its
presence felt in ratbor a disagreeable fash
ion , and ho was not altogether satisfied with
the appearance of the promised land so far
as ho had got. This story was plentifully
punctuated with the groans already re-
lerrcd to. Ho was at once marched to the
ofllco of Dr. * ' . S. Thomas , whore a largo
dose of sulphate of zlno was given him to
keep tbo laudanum company. A friend then
took him to Dr. Troynor's ofllcovhoro

Cold 8torUK Discussed.
The farmers and fruit growers hold theii
regular monthly mooting yesterday af tcrnoot
at the court house. In addition to their usua
program , which included papers by severa
of the members of the association , tbo subJect
Joct of erecting a cold storage warehouse wai
discussed at considerable length. J. J. Tea
ron appeared before the association and ex
plained the plan which ho proposed at thi
Joint meeting of the Board of Trade and tbi
Merchants and Manufacturers association
last wock. Ho proposed that a slocK com
panv bo organized for tbo purpose of build
Ing a warehouse to cost about $33,000 , H <
then acreod to take the warehouse Tor a torn
of live years , paying the moniBors of ihi
company 3 per con t on the amount of thoii
investment each year for tbo flrsl two years
4 per cent for the third year and 5 par com
for the last two years.
This scheme did not scorn to moot with tbi
approval of the formers , who tnougbt lha
Fearon ought to bo able to make them a mon
lomptlng proposition. L. A. Casper acroec
to take the house at a yearly rental ofOOl !
for a period of live years , with the pnvilogi
of ten , and as this would irivo the investor :
an income of nearly U per cent on their in
vestment it was somewhat more populai
tnan Fcaron's proposal. Still they were no
wholly satisfied. It was finally decided ti
leave the mutter for the present In tha hand :
ofV. . J , Davenport , who stated that ho hat
boon in correspondence with a man who vva
anxious to build u warehouse on his owi
hook. Thn man In question Is expected t
arrive in tha city in n wcoK or ten da ) s , am
when ha comes something detlnito will jirot

cold storage warehouse will bo built in th
city in time so that It can bo used during thi

Seeking u New Locution.
Tbo good sisters In charge of St. Fruncl
academy are confronted with a sortoi
problem. During the past ton yean seven
enlargements and alterations hive bee
made in the academy , designed to meet tl
steady increase of pupils. These expedient
costly ns they were , served the purpose
temporarily. At present the academy Is un
comfortably crowded , 10 much so that no
moro students can be received. To ontargo
the prosoot buildings would bo unwlso , for
reason that the area uf ground Is limited and
an addition such as is demanded would Icavo
the children without a play ground. Besides
the city ha * become so tblcklv populated
around the school as to destroy privacy and
distract scholars. In vlow of those condi
tions the sisters have about decided to seek
a now location where ample playground maybe
bo had , A number of desirable sites In tbo
htll and glens back of the city have been
examined , but no decision bos boon reached.
The change will Involve nn outlay of about
f 100,000. The undertaking Is a sonous ono ,
especially as the sisters are financially poor.
But , there seems no other road out of the dif
ficulty than n now slto nnd a now building.
Tbo project means much for the educational
Interests of Council Bluffs and should com
mand substantial encouragement from our
citizens. _

confined to pianoforte solos , tbo artists being
Miss Noally Stevens nnd FrAuloln Aus Dor

yesterday by the Philomela Quartette proved
to bo a pleasing variation , in that the work
was cntirjly vocal.

melody and reminds ono moro of a contralto
solo with soprano obligate ; it would bo un
fair to tbo latter to call it a duet.
Mrs. Georgia Boulter Sunderland sang
"Una Voce Pace Fa" ( Rossini ) in a very
worthy manner. Her phrasing was tirm and
llnihtied , and her powers of "declamando"
are increasing. Thu only criticism to bo
made on her rendition of this difilcult aria
was a slight inclination to hurry in some
'
places , which Interfered with hor'otherwlse
careful breathing.
The quartette "Blue Bolls of Scotland , "
arranged by Schilling , was a delightful endIng -
Ing to this choice program. Tbo composition
is excellent and was carefully sung ; the time
was good , and the voices blended togothet
sweetly , oven In the mystic mazes of the
minor harmonies. It could , however , be
made moro effective by having the pianis
simo passages moro decidedly soft , and in one
or two places a "ritaro" could bo introduced
with good result. Tno audience was enthu
siastic over this number and enjoyed Its
repetition.
Tbo Ladles Philomela quartette is dolnc
good work and has already a very desirable
reputation. It is to bo hoped that they will
bo encouraged to increase tbcir repertory by
having a constant demand upon It.
Mrs. J , W. Cotton , who is the organizer ol
the quartette , played the accompaniment !
with excellent taste nnd many pleasant re
marks wore " made on the versatility of h'ci
talent.
'Western ltotd : In Trouble.
CHICAGO , 111. , March 5. Western railroad
men do not feel at all uneasy in regard to the
outcome of the snarl Into which they hav <
got regarding rates to Kansas points. Now
tnat the light bos narrowed itself down to i
contest between the Atchlson and tbo Rocli
Island the interest has reached a point when
speculation is freely indulged in as t (
whether an amicable settlement 1 :
possible or demoralization and cbaos Inovl
table. The order of tbo Kansas railroac
commissioners reduces 111th class rates only
from the Missouri river to Wichita , Sallua
Hulch'.nson and other points In that state
It does not apply to fourth class freight
which consists mainly of the articles otn
braced lu the fifth class , in less that car loac
lots , which takes a higher rater poi
100 pounds , Tbo , VtAtchlson argue :
in favor of simply obeying thi
order of tbo commissioners with
out disturbing in the * 16slst any bnt flftl
class rates , while tboHock Island declare :
that such u proceeding Wodld bo Illegal.

Masquerade Hall at ( iormanla Hall.
Tno grand masquerade ball given last

was ono of Iho prettiest and most enjoyable
affairs that over took place ihero. Not only
was Iho throng of merry masquers a large
one , but there were more handsome costumes
than are ordinarily found on such an occa
sion. In fact the percentage of cheap or un
attractive make-ups was reduced to a mini
mum , and the scene prosonlod by Iho dancers
in their almost unceasing whirl was ono
of uninterrupted interest The floor man
agers wore all attired In Emperor Frederick
costumes , and all raovomenls were directed
by Philip Andres , wno also led Iho Prince
Carnival march. The hall was decoraled
with carnival banners nnd evergreens , nnd
all harmonized completely with the brilliant
scone of shifting color on the floor ,
Besides the opening march the first of six
numbers included three grand tableaux on
the sUgo , representing "Columbus' Depar
ture From Spain,1' tno scene boinc tlio court
of Ferdinand nnd Isabella ; the "Landing in
the Now World , " nnd "William Ponn's ,
Treaty With the Indians. " The costumes
were rich , tbo staging elaborate and the ef
fect was very flno.
For the dromon's qundrillo and nloigh bolls
quadrlllo the ball was darkened and the
tigures were danced in tbo cbxngmg colors ol
calcium lights thrown upon the floor from
the stage. After that came the unmasking
and tbo regular dance program of twenty-
