Two echoes cf the collapse of some of the inflated additions of boom days were received at the omce of the county recorder yesterday , one from Michigan and the other from Ohio. Several years ego , when the real estate craze was at its height , an enterprising fakir secured control of a couple of hundred acres of sand bar in the Missouri river , several miles below Lake Manawa , and platted it as Lafayette l'ark additionto Council Bluffs. The picture of the addition showed Vashing. ton aenue , Lincoln avenue , Franklin as'- 0000 , Madison avenue , and a number uf other streets named after streets in this city. The reading matter described ( ho city streets , and outside purchasers caine iii and were guhled nicely. There has been a lull in tlio btisines for some time , but tlio two reports that were receiyed yesterday indicate thnt the victints of the swindle have not all iteen heard from , If. Oraland of Detroit wrote to ask the recorder to know what the cost of fIling deeds would be , and confided the informs- thou that he possessed five lots in Lafayette Park addition. The other letter canto from \v. 11. fleets of Columbus , 0. Mr. Reefs has apparently been an easy mark , and hn hot yet discovered the extent to which lie has been duped. Ho wrOte that he is the owner of forty well located lots in the beautiful Lafayette Park addition , and would be very grateful if the recorder would give the name of some man in Council Bluffs who would like to loan money , with the hots as secur- it ) ' . Recorder Shephert did not have the heart to undeceive Mr. Reefs , and so left his letter unanswered , M11itIN INlLtN CItIdEIC'S BHD.

Present iflllCttiOfls are that there alit be a small army of men ready to report for work on the Indian creek cxcavatioi when the time arrives for beginning work. About half of the time of City Engineer Testevin is now taken up answering inquiries from men anxIous to get a chance to do a few days work for the city. The work will be commenced on Monday morning - ing at 7 o'clock at the south line of section 10 , near the river. 'Tim shovelers will then work up the creek a distance of two and one-half miles. The city engineer and Ida men have done a prodigious amount of work within the last few days. , The levels have been run and the entire dishince from Nineteenth avenue to the end of the proposcl excavation has been cross-sectioned Into 2O.fodt sections. Estimates of the amount of earthi 'to be removed - moved have pot boon completed , but will be before the work Is commenced. Tlte plpn the engineer will follow is to simply deepen and clear tii channel of the creek from Nineteenth avenue. At this point the present flow of time creek is 13.64 feet above the plane of reference , which In the low water mark In the river. A die. tanco of 14,000 feet from this point , which is the limit of the excavation , the level is 6.92. When time channel is deepened this will glvo a fall of 2.4 feet per mile. At the mouth of time creek there is but little excavation required only what may be expected - pected to be done at the first good hard spring rain' The greatest excavation will be at the upper cmd of 'time work , where a depth of thirty inches of soIl will be removed - moved , This will only be sumclent to put the flow line below the bottom of the principal sewer outlets. The earth taken out of tIme bottom and ldos of the channel vili be thrown along the banks of the cree1 to form a permanent levee. The work of the same nature that , wae done sovcral years ago raised a levee from Broadway for a long distance south and was the means of preventing disastrous overflows of the creek in times of hood. The work to be done this time will be worth about all it costs for the same reason. Confining - fining the current to a smooth narrow bed will greatly' increase the velocity of the stream and tedl to keep the bottom scoured out and clean. It is the intention of tbp city to give all time workingmen needing work a chance , and there will perhaps be several hundred strung along 'the two muse and over the creek channel , A large number of teams will be usedbut a still greater number of men with rubber boots and long handled shovels will find employment. If it Wore possible to tend 'the current off the work could be done much more rapdly ! and cheaply. This was done five years ago , and some heavy jam storms happened along just at the right time and flooded a large portion of the country lying south and west In Railroad addition. A great outcry was raised , and owners of flooded property threatened damage suits against the city , but they withdrew their complaints when the waters subsided. It 'was ' found that a large tract of how lands bad been filled by time wash from tim hills. In some low places time fill was over ten feet , and as it would coat about 35 cents a yard to have hauled the dirt there time owners were sat- isflcd. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Siiailnv SlIOOl Vision 1eeiing , There was a ( air attendance last night at tIme meeting of the Sunday School Workers' union hold at tbo Trinity Methodist church.

It was unusually full and replete with statistIcs. Time most Interesting - ing portion of it relates to the city's health and things contributing to endanger it. Dr. Treyrmor rays : S.tn han been heretofore ilone the cause of micath , as assigned in tIme certificate returned - turned to the city clerk , Is used in title report , I cannot too srommgiy condemn time terms emsed by some physicians in mnnkifl out ( leath certificates. General terms rue as "dropey " "heart fnIlure. ' "Jaundice , ' "childbirtht' "change of life , " etc. , are meaningless and convey no true Idea as to the entire of ilcath , nod certificates defective in this respect are worthless and hoiild not be accepted by the city clerk. lThyslclane making such retmmrne are either careless or ignorant and should be cnhlel strictly to account. The condition of our streets , sewers and publIc buildings , mere especially tima city Jail antI Indian creek , are a disgrace to the city and a constnnt menace to time itCalth of ths eolmitntmflity , The city jail should be thoroughly overhauled - hauled amid modernized. This matter was thoroughly gone lmmto in time report of my Inumiediato predecessor. arid I wish to en- ( loree and reiterate the reconimendatione mtmmmile by him. Indian creek should not be used as the repository for the carcasses of nil the animals and fowls in its vicinity , Thecity , ordinance governing tIme depositIng of g'arbage in this creek should be strictly enforced , Our methods of garbage collection are not at all sanitary or In accord with the present scientific methods of disposal of the same , No garbage should be collected in tIme day time or hauled over the principal streets. Open wagons for garbage collection should ho positively prohibited , nnd none mired except - cept thosc specially constructed for ttmi ptmrpose. It was a common incident last summer to sco wagoims containing tmncov- ered barrels reeking with tutu standing on or being driven over our moat prominent streets at all Imoure of the mlny , droppin their filth and leaving' an odorous trai In answering aim inquiry from the president of the garbage cohiection and disposal or- ganizatiomi In New York some weelce SInce , I wa ashamed to be compelled to informn him timat we had no systematic methods of collection and disposal of garbage in this city. In time matter of quarantine and disin- fecttomm in contagious diseases. I believe that the rules governing tIme same. as laid down by time Board of health , should be rigidly adhered to. and that violators of these rules , whether they be physicians or the public In general , should be ptinished to time full cx- tent of the law , Last winter , owing .ta the failure to report - port contagious ( iirenses and mliregard of the rule proimibiting tim imolding of public funerals where death hn been due to con- tagiotis diseases , we were threataned with an epidemIc of diphtheria , which neccsitated time temporary closing of about twenty rooms In the city schools. These rooms were closed from three to ten days amid were thoroughly disinfected in the manner prescribed by the Hoard of Health. In doing this the board met with much op. position from a certain class of citizens , but I am satisfied that had it not been for the prompt measures adopted by the health officers at that time we should have had a serious epidemic. Notwithstanding the vigiianqe ot the board. the death rate front contagious diseases was quito large. From diphtheria and membranoims croup 27' front scarlet ever , 7 from typhoid fever , L The greatest numbs of deaths in one month from one cause In the last yearoccurred in the month of July , seventeen deaths from cholera In- fantum being recorded in that month , Had the sanitary condition of our city been what it should have been the death rate from this cause would have been much Ies , SHUT OUT SO3IE INCOIU'OUATOILS.

The legisiature a short time ago posed a law requiring the payment of a $25 fee for every artcle of incorporation flied ( org company with a capital stock of $100,000 anc an additional dollar for every additional thousand dollars of capital stock. Recorder Shepard was not certain whether time law had gone into ef- feet yet , but he spoke to Mr. Carmichael about it. Carmichael had for filing the ar- tides of Incorporation of the Mercur Gold Production company , with a capItal stock of $1,600,000. He left the articles and via- ited a lawyer and found that the law in question had gone into effect yesterday and that the filing of his articles of incorporation - tion would cost a lIttle matter of $1,600. Ho decIded that the company would prosper just as well under an incorporation in somne other state , and so withdrew his docmmments representtng such a vast amount of capital stock. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ After MUHUWIL Saloons , The saloon question will be an issue at Lake Manawa this year.
