The regular session ot the city council
last evening was n very brief affair. But
It lasted long enough to give the famous
"retrenchment" ordinance , which had Its
birth Just previous to the last election , a
very gorgeous optic. An ordinance was In
troduced last nlgnt which provides that the
salary of the deputy city treasurer shall be
Increased from $125 to $150 per month , that
of the head clerk from $83.33 to $125 , and
those of other employes of the ofilce In the
eamo proportion. The salary of the mayor's
secretary Is rtlpcd to $100 a month. It was
referred to the finance committee.
The appointment of Peter Schwcnck ns
clerk of the pollco court was confirmed. The
appointment of Alexander MacDonald as
poi'rdmaster was also confiimed , Axford ,
Burkley , Kmcnt and Taylor voting no on
the ground that the appointment conflicted
with the charter. The official bonds were
presented and approved In each case.
The resignation of John Lcmly ns councll-
man-at-largo was transmitted by the mayor.

tion bo accepted. Both documents were re

with the mayor and city attorney , were
authorized by resolution to provide for re
funding the short tlmo bonds now outstand
ing. .
A communication from the Board of Park
Commissioners asking for an additional ap
propriation of $4,000 was referred to the
finance committee. The commissioners ex
plained that they had been advised that If
they brought mandamus proceedings against
the council to compel It to make an ad
ditional levy It would be compelled t/ > make
the minimum levy ot 1V4 mills ? . As this
would ralpo more money than they needed
they wanted the council to compromlsa the
matter.
The comptroller was dlrecteJ not to place
In the appropriation ordinances any Items
In payment of bills against the city for serv
ice or materials , when there were delinquent
personal taxes standing against the bener
ftclarle ? .
A resolution was alee adopted by which
the bondsmen of Henry Bolln were directed

amlno the books of the city before Marcli

VlcM\H Upon Tills Subject.
Commissioner Blythln of the hejlth depart
ment says that there Is an unusual prevalent
of stomach disorder existing in the clt ;
at this Hint ; . The disease Is a sort of win
te cholera , the malu symptoms of which ar
fiequcnt purging and vomiting. Neaily 30
cases have come under his own obsorvatloi
during the past month. They usually ylel
to treatment and are seldom serious.
In bplto ot the general impression that a
open winter is unhealthful , Dr. Blythln In
cllnes to the contrary opinion. Ho point
to the city's unusual freedom from dieast
Ho gays that while a certain class may hav
better health In colder weather , an ope
I winter Is conducive to healthfulness amen
the poorer people. There are many fam
llles , he says , where ftvo or six persona llv
together In a very small house , or in ono c
two rooms. When the weather Is ver
cold they shut themselves up In order t
keep warm and the fact that they are tin :
dopilved at sufficient air makes them p <
cullnrly susceptible to disease. With won
wrather they can open the windows and tl :
result Is a decided Improvement In thcl
ph } steal condition.

Additional trouble Is In store for Stanley
Clay comb , the man who was bound over to
the district court Monday on the charge
of robbing graves In Mount Hope cemetery.
This trouble la tnrc-.itcr.cil In a letter which
has been received by Chief ot Pollco
Sign art from a woman , signing herseif
"Mrs , George Smith , Lyons , la. "
The \\oman Is very anxious to obtain a
description of Claycomb. She states that
sha Is of the opinion that he Is the man who
married her In Dubuciuo last September.
She adds that the meager description given
of Claycomb tallies nlth that of Smith , who
lived with her In her homo for three months
afiT the marriage , and then left for parts
unknown. Her suspicions that Clnycomb
Is her husband are strengthened by the
fact that he gave the name oj George
Smith to the Des Molnes authorities at the
tlmo ot his arrest.
It ho Is found to bo the fleeting husband
ho will bo prosecuted on the charge ot
bigamy , as he has a wife In this city.
Stop Thief !
Stop a small mlady , wh'ch Is stealing
your strength , before It outruns your power
to arrest It , and recover what It took from
you. The safest and promptest recuperator
ot waning vitality is Hosteller's Stomach

portcd Tlicnttov UcnlN.
During the past day or two It hna been
rumored that James E. Boyd was about to
add the Crawford theater of St. Joe to his
theatrical possessions. Then the rumor was
reversed and It was stated that L. M. Craw
ford was to lease the Boyd theater In this
city and run It In connection with his St.
Joe house. Governor Boyd snys that both
ot these statements arc equally remote from
the truth. The only basis for the rumors
was that he happened to be In St. Joe for a
couple of hours the other day and called on
Mr. CrawforJ. He had never scon the thea
ter and on Mr. Crawford's Invitation ho spent
an hour In looking It over. There was no
suggestion ot any business deal and the flrst
that ho had heard of It was In the more re
cent reports.
"T-ero Is absolutely no truth In the
stories , " said Governor Boyd. "My call on
Manager Crawford was of a purely social
character and I Inspected his theater for no
other reason than ordinary curiosity. "
We wish to state to our patrons that One

remedy tor children troubled with croup ,

pleasant to take and quickly cures.

Our new crop of 189C Spring Overcoats la now on top. This crop com
prises casslmercs , meltons , worsteds , cheviots , homespuns , diagonals and "West
ot England Covert Cloth , " whatever that may mean.
The colors vary from a light fawn color to n black black , and between these
you will find light and dark grays , light and dark bronns and porno shades
that are neither light nor dark , nor gray nor brown.
The prices run from $1.00 tor n good , substantial , evcry-dny and Sunday
coat , well made and well lined , to $12.00 tor a very swell affair that Is good
enough to get married In , and almost too ntco to wear for ovcry day.
These coats differ from all others In two very Important points ;
First , In prlco : For Instance , the coat that Is marked $7.50 Is different
from any $7.50 coat you over saw by about $2.60 ; and the $12.00 coat Is about
$600 to $8.00 different from the $12.00 coat you buy In any othur store.
Second , In wear : If you ever bought a Spring Overcoat nt The Nebraska
you know that It wore well. That's n way "Nebraska" clothes have , and
those overcoats will keep up the reputation of those \\c sold In former jcars.
Many a man Is today wearing a "Nobraska" Spring Overcoat of the vintage ot
' 28 , and many a man who buys from this year's crop won't have to buy a now
ono when ho fixes up for the Trans-Mlsslsslppl Exposition of ' 98.
