With new name , now management , now attractions , now arrangements , now improvements , new everything , the Chnutauqtia assembly this season will prove a brilliant success without doubt. The plan hns been perfected by which the control passes by a loasc from the trustees into tno hands of .ludgo.T. E. F. McGee and Postmaster I. M. Trcynor , who will glvo the enterprise personal supervision. The well known standing of thcso two enterprising citizens is as surance sufliclont thnt the assembly will bo a grand success , for in their social , business and ofllcial records there is known no such word as fail. To make assurance doubly sure they have secured from other citfzens a cash guarantee of over $7,000 , to bo drawn upon if necessary , so that there can bo no possible financial stress or hesitancy. Thus provided with abundant capital. Messrs. Troynor and McGee will pro ceed at once to secure the very best talent to bo had.

Ilcfiiilts of Yesterday's Storm , The storm yesterday morning did a great deal of damage to tbo overncaa wiles ana there was hardly anyone In the city who was not Inconvenienced some tlmo during the day by bis inability to use some of the modern conveniences thai draw their utility from an overhead wire. About 10:30 : the lire boll tapped several times , as If for a lire , and then was silent. There was no lire and the alarm was caused by an accident tnat took place at that instant at the corner of Broad way and Ninth street , and resulted in the crossing of the wlroi of the alarm system with these of tha electric motor ' .Ino and the consequent burning out ol the whole alarm system. "Tho accident wai the breaking off of a polo belonging to the Western Union telegraph company nt tbo corner of tl < o two streets above referred to. The polo bore the weight of fifty or moro wires , each of which had become loaded down with ice until the polo snapped off by the sheer force of the weight on the wires. A largo number of the wires , wore broken at the same time and the telegraphic connections with all the citiei in the country excepting Chicago was cat off. The main wires of the tclcphono line wore strung along the same polo , and when tbo wires fell to the ground after the breaking of the pola they lay across two of the over head wires of the motor company , forming a connection which Instantly ourned out the fuses In every telephone in the city. The Oiily two wires that could bo used all day wore those running to Avoca and Glenwood , every other being rendered useless. It was found necessary to stop the trains on the motor line , and for two hours travel by rail in the city was sus pended. Linemen were busy all afternoon repairing the broken line * , buc ihclr work is not yet completed. Tbo telephone company had 335 wires down , and It will probably bo several days before they will all bo put In shape again. The injury to the flro alarm system was repaired lasi evening so that no danger need be apprehended from its failure to work properly. The wlf03 of the Postal Telegraph com pany were all down during tbo afternoon , nnd the only way of communication between Council Bluffs and Omana oQluos was by messenger boy , until 10:3J : o'clocit in the evening. _ All Modern Woodmen nnd Koyal Neighbor's nnd friends of Woodmen are invited to attend an entertainment and social to bo-given by the Indies ot Lily Camp No. 1 , Royal Neighbors of Amer ica , at K.

Judge McGee ga.-o James Harris and .lames Fox a preliminary examination yes terday morning on the charge of stealing a gold watch chain from C. B , Jacquomlu's Jewelry store. Harris had met with a change of heart since the Urst day bo was arrested. At that tlmo ho announced bis willingness to assist thn oflicers In any way ho could In finding tbo thief , and bo stated to Judge McGee pr.vatoly that Fox was the man who had the chain. Yesterday , however , ho was sulky and refused to answer the questions pro pounded to him by Couuty Attorney Orjitn , saying tbut bo was so disgusted with the treatment tie bad received In the Jail that ho woula not say a word , but allow the ofllrers to go Italono in proving up their case apulnst himself and Fox. Ho hroko bis word , bow- over , and deigned to answer a few questions which ho thought ho could answer without endangering his own-cause , tut ho was soon so badly tangled up that ho had to fall back upon his first rosolvoand refuse to talk. After tbo oviuencohad all boon hoard Judge McCioa stctod that bo had Been Inclined to believe that Harris was Innocent until ho saw his actions in court , when be bcoumo convinced thnt ho wus not , all rlgnt.
