The first annual exhibit of the Western

have been making their morning anthems
crack the plastering until bed tlmo have
been taken back to their homes to wait for
another year to roll by until they can have
a chance to strut about their little
cages for the admiration of the pubhu. The
exhibit has been a most successful one In
every particular. People who were
not supposed to know u good bird
from : i bad one umcss it was well
cooked und cut In slices , have been
found to bo engaged in the raising of
blooded poultry , nnd nn industry that was
thought to be almost unknown in Council
Bluffs and the immediate vicinity is shown
to have obtained a decided foothold. Similar
exhibits will be held every year hcrcattcr ,

those who had charge of this year's trial.

SNOWDKX SLIOKS HACK.
Kscapcil Convict Is Now on Ills AVuy to Des
.Mollies to Servo Ills Sentence.
The notorious Frank Snowden , formerly n
Missouri Valley saloon keeper , has been run
to cover , and is now on his way to Des
Molncs to servo out a sentence o'f ninety
days in the Polk county jail , which was im
posed on him by the late Judge Love of the
federal court. Ho acquired an unenviable
notoriety by reason of his big talk more than
anything else , and lie was regarded us an
all-around desperado. Ho was finally run
down by thq United States oftlcials , how
ever , and was tried on the charco of boot
legging and sentenced to a term of ninety
da.\s in the Polk county Jail nnd a line of
S100 or nn extra thirty days
in jail as ho might choose. On the
way to Des Moiaes ho managed to slip away
from Deputy Marshal Etherldgo , jumped
from the train while It was going at n vapid
rate of speed , and took so much leg bail that
for three years nothing definite has been
known as to where he might bo found.
Nut long ago ho stele back to Missouri
Valley , but the old terror in which ho was
hold was revived by the officers of that
place , and not one of them could be found
who had more courage than It took to go to
the telegraph office nnd notify the United
States authorities hero that ho was to bo
had by nny one who thought he was big
enough to tackle him. Deputy Marshal
Hlchurds went to Missouri Valley yester
day ami nailed him withovt the slightest
clinically. Snowden claims to nave been
spending the last three years in Wvomlnp ,
where ho has been working ut anything ho
could cot to do ana has mot with un cnttro
change of heart.

They Don't Want Millet.
Mr. N. M. Pusoy , one of the Councll.Bluffs
delegation who visited DCS Molncs to secure
some modification of the prohibitory law ,
says that he thinks that their mission will
not provu In vain. Ho believes that some
option law will bo passed , by which the
desired rollof may bo secured and the pledge
of the republican party made gooa. "Wo
don't want n mulct law at all. It's worse
than getting uotnlcg and I bellovo that
the liberal republican * will refuse
to support nny such bill , nnd of
course the democr.ics will vote ngalnst It. so
thcro is no chance for n mtilut law , nnd I'm
plad of It. What wo want is some form of
local option nnd I believe that good common
sense nnd Justice will bring to us the rollof
to which wo are entitled under the plcdgo
of the republican phlform. "

Vnliml.lo I'omprllnii C'nrloilty In tlio l'o-
nrHlon of Muynr Ijiwrcncr.
Mayor Lnwronco Is looking forward with
feelings of considerable Interest to
the European tour which ho con
templates taking as soon as ho Is re
leased from the duties of his official position
about the middle of next month. Among
the places ho will visit is Pompeii , nnd his
nppottto for pryint ? into the wonderful se
crets of the burled city Is only sharpened by
the fact ot his having visited It twice be
fore , once in 1ST" and ngam In 18SO. Since
then the excavations hnvo been going on nt
n rapid rate , so that ho will bo able to notice
many changes.
People arc not accustomed to think of
Mayor I/uvrcnce as n shoplifter , but It must
bo confessed that there Is a little rellu In his
homo on First avenue that would not have
been there had he not been quicker with his
fingers than one of the numerous Pompcllan
guards wuswlth his eyes. White watohing
the work o cxcavutlns n dwelling house on
one of ills former trips , ho caught n sudden
glimpse of what looked like the head of n
statuette Just pooping out nt him through
the dust nt his feet. Ho offered his guido
stealthily u gold piece to got it for him. but
the guido. utter looking around , withstood
the ituhlng of his fingers for American cold
and pointed nbovo at n guard , who stood on
the alert for nny ono who tried to make off
with the multitude of antiquated relics that
were constantly being turned out by the
shovels nnd picks of tno workmen.
Dr. Lawrence watched his chance nnd
dropped his handkerchief upon the spot
where ho tmd seen the head of the statuette.
He then sat down on the ground nnd com
menced to work away in nn nbscnl-mindcd-
manner to free the statuctto from its sur
roundings of 1.80U years. Ho finally got it
loose , nnd concealing In It his handkerchief ,
succeeded In getting"it to his hotel. It is n
little Imago of a vestal virgin , done in bronze ,
and bears hardly a sign of corrosion. Dr.
Lawrence says ho would not take $300 In
cash for it , and these who share his venera
tion for the antique win ro.idlly undors tand
how ho places such a value upon it.

A great deal of public interest has been
awakened by the remarkable relief that has
bean afforded the little daughter ot Robert
I'atton , 2C20 North Nineteenth street , Omaha ,
an account ot which appeared In The Dee
several weeks ago. The child had become
a mental and physical wreck from the awful
effects ot epilepsy , having suffered as many
ris forty Revere uttacku In n day. All the
usual methods of treatment hud been K--
sortcd to without beneficial results nt any
time , but with serious consequences at the
end of the second year , when the purents
ot the child almost prayed that cpecdy
death might end the terrible blight that hud
fallen upon their bright little ijlrl. The
effects of the Sweetland remedies and treat
ment were noted In the article referred to ,
when but two spasms were noted
after tlio commencement ot the treatment.
Since then many Inquiries have been re
ceived by Sweetland's * Specific Remedy com
pany nt tholr ofilce , opposite the postolllco ,
Council Dluffs , and by Mr. and Mrs. Pntton.
These Inquiries have come- from half u dozen
slates. As an answer to all of them this
statement of tlio case la made : So far as all
outward conditions Indicate little Louise
1'atton Is practically cured. There has not
been a symptom ot a spasm , Hushing or
blanching of the countenance Incident to any
stages ot the disease. No trace of nervous
ness has been discovered. The little girl Is
going to school regularly , and 1s hearty ,
bright and rugged. Her general health la
better than It has ever been , and she Is ex
traordinarily bright mentally.

There Is u gnngAJ boys nnd half grown
men operating oowcst } Broadway to which
the police might W3 some nttcntlon. Dur
ing the past wcokslffe slelghlnc has been ex
cellent , nnd at nll purs ot the evening the
streets have bc&if crowded with sleighing
parties , to whom the moan was equally at
tractive with the snow. Among the parties
that have been out were n number from the
city schools. Miss Dale's pupils were out
Friday night in n big bob sled , packed in
until there wus no room for any moro.
When they were passing the North
western depot on Broadway they
were suddenly nttackcd by the gang
nbovo referred to , nnd were erected with a
volley of snowballs , chunks of ice and
stones. Several of the occupants of the
sleigh were struck nnd badly Injured , n little
girl named Rutledge being ono of the most
severely hurt. A stone struck her just above
the eye nnd knocked her senseless. She did
not recover consciousness for more than half
nn hour. Yesterday her face was hgrrlbly
swollen , one of her eyes being completely
closed. It is said that the miscreants hnvo
been in the Iriblt of treating sleighing
parties in this way , and if caught they
should bo given u lesson which It will take
them n long tlmo to unlearn.

ATLANTIC , la. , Fob. 17. ( Special to The
Bee. ) The Cuss County bank failure becomes -
comes moro muddled and Intricate in detail
us developments are made in the settlement ;
of the cuso. The number and variety of law
suits , petitions nnd attachments and legal
points contained therein are almost boyoud
comprehension. The receiver of the bank
has asked for a receiver of the hardware )
Hrm of > I. C. Yotzcr & Co. , ns Yotzcr had
turned over his Interests of the company to
the bank , nnd the settlement of this has be MJ
come a block In the way ol speedy sottlo- J
incut or report.
\V. 1' . Crcsiy of the llrni of J. C. Yotzcr ft
Co. now claims that notes to the amount of
$10,000 given by him 10 Yotzcr last August
wore accommodation notes nnd did not Indi
cate a genuine indebtedness , but were to
help out In the gi 'at stringency In the ban I :
ut that tlmo. A petition to that effect anil
asking a compromise oi the same lint , been
Hied by IsaacDiekerson. . Yetzer had turned-
Iho notes over to the bunk and rccl'tvodi
credit for Iho same. If the petition holila
this will adn f 10,000 more to Ynt/er's JIUO-
OCO indebtedness to the bank and cut dowu
the assets that much.
Interest In the CURO now is greater tlrin nt
any limo since the failure. Matters seem to
grow worse daily , and the receiver's report
Is a waited with great eagerness. The Jurtpa
bus called for the report of tlio receiver
Monday.
Thu second petition for a receiver ns n prl-
vatu uanklng Institution has been tiled and
nay add many now features to the case.
While it Is the opinion of most people that
UocclverStomico line been true to his duty
others have become excited and claim that
ho Is withholding the report to enable stock
holders to got property out of their hands
und cite Judge I.oofhoro oi Salt Lake as nu
instance. The Indebtedness of the olllcera
and stockholders lo the bank l'i the way of
notes and overdrafts Is suld to roach over
$ ' , . ' 10,000. No indictments have yet been re
turned , but the grand Jury Is hunt ut work
on the case. Auditor of State McCarthy
was before thn Jury to tell nil ho know about
tlio Institution closing up business ns a stale ,
bank.
The receiver's report may probably oo do-
la.\cd until Tuesday. U Is expected the
grand Jury will return Indictments against
some of Iho officers early next week.
