Contract Ordered.
After another long discussion the joint
committee of tha city council and til's lloatd
of Supervisors decided yesterday afternoon to
use Hlag for the bottom layer of the Lower
Droadw/iy paving. City Knglntcr Tostcvln
and B. A. Wlckham reporlcd lhal they had
visited the Omaha smelter and had found
nn adequate supply on hand. Mr. Tostevln
recommended thai Ihe slag be used wllh-
out crushing , and that It be placed as ob
tained from the dump. The leveling , be
thought , could be done with hammers , fol
lowed up by using the twenty-ton roller.
Ho also recommended that gravel be used
plentifully In binding the upper and lower
courses. It was finally decided to modify
the specifications so as to admit of experi
menting with sing In order that the greater
part of the work could be done In the man
ner found most practicable. The following
modifications of the original spcclficallona
were adopted :
It Is hereby understood nnd iigrtTtl be
tween the parlies lo IblH contract that ,
whereas , the uee of slug as n roadbed be
ing somewhat experimental the contractor
will nt the Instance ot the commissioners
nnil the clly engineer pcrmll nueli modlll-
callonH of the original suerlf'.outlons to
produce thu best results by the IIKO of slug
HH may be Hlioun by actual experiment
and trlnl.
The modifications above suggrslrd nlmll
consist In Mich Increase of the amount of
gravel In the top course as Ihe beat prae-
tlc-al result shall mnke necessary ; also In
tb use of cinders In combination there
with no may be lii'Mt , or of such amount
of clay an the * engineer shall permit and

original .spcclficallons nre not Impaired or
changed by the above conditions exrept
UH to substitute slag for Ilmestc c > , and
Unit such changes shall he under the con
trol of the c'oniiiiLssltiiiorH ami engineer.
The contractor will place the Hlaj ; on the
roadbed In the clzes ami tOmpiw delivered

An Information was filed In Justice Ccok's
court yesterday charging John Hcldllk with
grand larceny. Uan Carrlgg , proprietor of
the Turf Exchange saloon , signed Iho Infor-
inallon. The man wanted Is hid saloon man
ager , who came here about three'months
ago from Pair bury. Neb. Carrlgg has had
other business to look after ami let Hcldllk
have full conlro ! of Ihe saloon and Us af
fairs. Saturday night , after the business
of the day was over , the manager concluded
that he had enjoyed life in Council Illuffa
as long as there was anything In it for him.
and the present was a good time to get
away.
Ik-sides taking all ot the cash and silver
ware In sight he took the cash register. The
stuff made a couple of good-sized bundles ,
but he succeeded In gelling It aboard a
motor train Sunday morning without at-
Iracllng attention. Ho took It across Ihe
river and checked It lo Falrbury over Ihe
Rock Island. Carrlgg did not discover that
his manager had robbed him until several
hours after he was gone , and then some time
elapsed before he learned the direction he
bad taken. A telegram was dispatched frrm
Sheriff Morgan's ofllce and Ileldllk was
stopped at Lincoln , where he was locked up.
He was Inclined al first to return to Iowa
without the formality of a requisition , but
reconsidered It before a Council Hluffs otll-
cer starled after him. The necessary steps
were taken yesterday procuring requisition
papers.
Hcldllk has evidently been preparing for
his sudden departure for several days , as
he supplied himself with all klndtt of goods
wherever ho could procure them on credit.
Hills conlraclcd in this manner will amount
lo as much ns his embezzlement.

Alderman Casper had a grievance lasl
nlghi al Ihe regular mecllng of the council.
HP objccled lo the minutes , In which his
vote had been recorded In favor of approv
ing the award of the contr.irl for Ihe Lower
Hroadwny paving to F. II. Ouenella & Co.
Ho had voted In favor of the matter a week
ago , but In the meantime had changed his
mind. Ho was denied this ex post facto
privilege , nnd proceeded to assert himself.
"I Insist thai my vote be changed , If I
don't get a second lo my motion. " said the
First ward alderman , and his "Insist" failnd
and ( ho minutes were approved as read ,
after Alderman Casper and Alderman Green-
shield hail bad a little tilt about the matter.
The next subject taken up was the allow
ing of the bills for September , as approved
by the finance committee.
"Whose * name Is on those bills ? " asked
Alderman Casper.
When told It was that of Alderman flrcrn-
shleldn , he wanted to know whnl was Iho
mailer with the rrst of Ibc committee.
"You don't suppose , " said Alderman Qrren-
shtelds. "that we're going to let those hllli
lie around for n month , because Iho other
coininlllccmcn don't show up ? Do you want
mo to carry them around to the other com-
inltleemon's houses ? "
"Well , If your going to art dirt , " replied
Alderman Casper , "why let's go nheail. I
want to know what's going on. It you've
gel a secret organization muong yoursclus
It's tlmo sombody know It. 1 want lliose
bills read. I've voted for bills right iiloiiK
and never knew what I was voting for.
The public has a right to know about thes
matters. "
"Will you set tip Iho suppers Casper while
there nre being read ? " asked Alderman
Orcenshlelds.
After a few moro oratorical cffortH b >
Mr. Casper , City Clerk Phillips proceeded
lo read the bills. The monotone ot Mr.
Philips proved decidedly uiiintoroslhig to
all present except Alderman Cnaper , who
raised a number of objections. One bill
for harness snaps amounting lo $1 was ob
jected to as too high. Alderman Greon-
shlclds explained Hint Mr. Casper had
bought them himself and his objection \vn *
withdrawn. The next bill objected to wan
for a Jl.OOO Insurance policy on the Lower
Mcln street hose house. Alderman Casper
wanted to know by what authority the In
surance was taken out. The bill was InM
asldo for the time being. After all bills
had been road he tried to have the bill rr-
jcclod , bul received no second. Chief Tcm
plcton explained that oil lamps were used
there and when the company went to a
llro the place was left unprotected.
The bill for removing garbage next failed
to meet Mr. Casper's approval , and he had It
laid aside for a while. About the city rcar-
ciiRcr's bill for giving a dozen pet cats dt
cent burial , Xlr. Casper remarked that "tnoco
sro pretty deur dead cat" ! . " The'other alder
men wore aroused from their reveries by thr
laugh from the spectators. A few mate ob
jections were registered before the effort
of the city clerk had finished.
The coniiulltce on police and healt'i won
authorized to renew Ihe conlrnct with tin ?
garbage hauler.

should do so and give an object lesson In the

was too much the gentleman to lend hlnuel
to that game of brag , which doubtless wouli
have been most gratifying to the president
who wants to figure in the eyes of Kuropi

possibleto surround the vehicles with :

REVIVING VERSAILLES.
M. Faun ? has , however , been able to sc
cure the picscncc of the c/.ar , In companj
with himself , nt a review of 70,000 soldiers
at the camp of Chalons. He tries , on the
ono side , to revive Hit ! glories of Versailles
( of which more presently ) , and on tin
other to revive the military glorlc.i * of the
empire at Chalons , where the Emperor Na
poleon III annually "held , " as the French
used to say , "PniE-.U nnd the Germanic
confedrratlon In rcspo- ' . . " M. Fauro's de
parture at the grand V.'esl-of-Krance ma
neuvers of last week prepared France to
KPO him on horseback along with the czar.
The example set by Carnet and Caslmli
Perlcr was thought to have bound him
to appear In a carriage drawn by six ar
tillery horses , held with artillery traces
and ridden by artillerymen acting as pos
tillions. The car would not have objected
to ride In a carriage with the president.
The difficulty would have been what to
do with the czarina , who IB completely
Identified with tha life of her husband.
If Fhe rode In the same- carriage with
him and the president , ono of the gentle
men would have had to sit with his back
to the horses , which la considered undlg
nlficd. If there were two carriages , which
slirmld KO the flrat ? Gallantry would have
plven the pas to the one containing the
c-arnn. ! She was forbidden by her doctor
to pn on horseback. It Is now settled that
M. R4it.ro and the czar , with an escort of
< -nrras. ! arc to rlilo bef.oro her carriage
nt rb-ilons that Is. should she feel well
rnn'igh to go to the review after a very
fntiKiilncr three days' bout of sight-seeing
and frfitlvlty In Paris , snd a run down to
Chalons between midnight and 9 In the
morning , which would only leave an hour's
tlmo for dressing and going to the camp.
The mammoth Imperial train lpr6ved * un
manageable and dangerous. In. B9lJnB round
the Girdle railway , from VaugjrarJ ) to Passy
Green , whpro the Imperial jiiarty are to
alight , It flattened out the rails , and ran all
them. Had It net been gojm ; ; at a snail's
pace there would have been a ftrave , not
to say fatal , accident. Russian railways
run In a straight line from one , great city
to another without regard forjptermedlato
burgs or villages. As the whole country Is
flat for thousands of miles tliero are no
moro steep gradients than abr'unt'jbends. The
colossal weight of the Imperial train , 430
tons , on a downward grades might have
caused a catastrophe. A trofn , , therefore ,
was arranged to replace that of the em
peror. which will afford greater iccommoda-
tlon and bo only half the ,

olas , the czar's patron saint , and also the
patron of little children. In Russia ho Is
regarded as a sort of Father Christmas , The
nursery compartments will be missed In the
"reach specially arranged train ,
FAURH FAMILY FAULTS ,
On the other hand. M , Faure will have the
ntenst ) joy of acting as host to the Imperial
visitors all the way from Cherbourg
Paris , and of giving them more
ban the eight hours of his company and
onversatlon than they bad agreed to put
with at Cherbourg , The original ar-
angeiuent was that they should travel In
beir own train , and be In his , a short
llntance before them. He Is to mcut them
Cherbourg without Mine , Faure , and Is
Iso to meet them unaccompanied by the
adles of his family at the palace of Ver-
allles the day they go there. Mine. Fauro
no national or International rank and
he president's many Journalistic enemies ,
whose envy he Is constantly arousing , have
made It Impossible fdr the empress to Ig
nore a Mad : rape ot the good lady's ( am
lly history. About a fortnight ago Ihoy
returned to the charge and published lie
sentence by default passed on M. Itelinot.
1 ' her father ( a lawyer by profession ) , with
I i the contract of marriage of his daughter
and a Journeyman tanner , who Is now presi
dent of the republic. The first document
recorded twenty years of penal serv
ice on Hellnot. who had fled to Spain , then
out of the reach of extradition , for robbing
a client by a forged paper : the second
showed that M. Felix Faure got as a dowry
100 000 francs out of the assets Bellnot left
In dying. This exposure was mean and
spiteful. Hut the court of Russia bad to
take It Into account. The empress , accord
ingly. Is not to associate with Mine. Faure
In publle. SheIs only to see her when
she calls at the ICIysee ami dines there.
Great efforts are being made here to gel
Ihls flat altered and to bring out the Faure
ladles at the Francals and the Opera house
when their Imperial majesties go there.
M. Faure will await them at the Francals
and Opera house. They have arranged to
go by themselves to the former and to Ver
sailles. The road thither hns A central
pavement of cobble stones , thirteen miles
Ions. It Is to be thickly sanded the whole
way to make It smooth for the Imperial
carriage. The whole garrison of Paris Is
to be under arms and posted along the
road. An Imperial levee will be held In
the Gallery of Mirrors , which lias been fur
nished as In the time of Louis XIV. Hut
physiognomies and the costumes will be so
different , and alas ! the manners , too. Am
bassadors In the eighteenth century were
never professional diplomats , affectedly re
served , but men bom lo great stations
and chosen for their social gifts ns well .
an for their clear heads , bright wits and
Insight nnd readiness. They dressed mag- '
nlflccntly and had a gram ) nlr. The corps
diplomatique which will present their hem
ages to the czar and czarina at Versailles
will contain such diplomats as Lord
Stair , the duke of Portland , the earl of
Albom.irle , the Cotite de Hare , Hie duki >
of Osuna. The grand bodies of Ihe slate
will also be received. They are formed ot
men who have pushed their way on and up
nnd are ready to show themselves In nil
but restraint of manner utter courtiers.
Original busts and portraits ot Peter the
Great , the Catherines and Paul and Alex
ander I have been brought down from the
nttlc gallery and placed on easels In the
south wing , where their Imperial majeu-
lies can see Ihem without climbing lofty
stairs.
PORTRAITS ON HXHIIHTION.
The different portraits of Marie An
toinette will bo submitted In the same
way lo Ihelr Inspection , ns also the
miniature taken of Catherine the
Great Just after she became empress.
A wonderful work of art It Is. Scaf
foldings have been removed at enormous
cost from the terraces , fountains and basins
repaired ; a fleet of elghteenlli century royal
barges furbished up to take Ihe Imperial
visitors by the canal In his gardens facing
the west front of the palace to Ihe Trlnntra.
This excursion Is lo follow a lunch In Ihe
Gallery of Rallies nd a long rest of the
Imperial visitors In hie suite of email rooms
fitted up by Jttrlc Antoinette SB a private
residence. They are pokey ntt0 | rooms and
all look out en dingy , narrow court yards.
Hut they are dliTercnt from Ihe slale rooms ,
the grandeur of which was wearisome and
his discomfort dreadful. The small rooms
nro a br.th room , salon and reading room ;
they look llk > a doll's house. Fluted bro
cade or satin of tender and yet lively shades
cover the walls. The furniture Is dainty ,
but It Is In the style affected by mercenary
'
'benntles of the corps du ballet toward the
end ot the last century.
Old courtiers were shocked at the
frivolous prettlness of Ihese rooms. In
Ihe blue room or salon Ihcre Is
ii dalnly sofa In sky blue wllh gilt frame
In a niche sel round with mirrors. The
lovely cjuccn whose fate was so tragi
cal liked to see her beautiful head
In front In profile and vanishing pro
file. She ordered In three mirrors to be
set at right angles. Hut , the' first lime she
went to survey herself In them at one of
the corners she behold what a headless
lioily , and sank fainting on the sofa. She
w.as constantly meeting with Incidents and
facing catastrophes that seemed presages of
coming woes. In this respect Nicholas and
Alexander resemble her. Their wedding
was on the morrow of his father's funeral.
The first year of their reign was blackened
by the first set of Armenian massacres , In
which 100.000 people perished. Their coronation
nation was marked by the appalling catas-
trophc nt Moscow , nnd the day they reached
Vienna the first news they received was
that fresh massacres had taken place. Then ,
on their roturu journey from Vienna , Prince
Lobanoff , wliom history must find guilty of
complicity with the sullan , died as Ihcy
were stepping out of the train lo stretch
their legs. When they were enjoying real
at the patriarchal court of Denmark the
family circle then wns appalled to learn of
the dynamite conspiracy.
Providence seems to have warned then
that long life , prosperity and universal
love and esteem may be won by following
the example of Victoria ; but that disaster
must In the long run catch up with those
monarchs whose grand political schemes
nre executed through liilcjutty. Halmora"
