The members of the city council who served seven or eight years ago bullded more wisely than they knew when they spent many ted ious days and good dollars In erecting a bar ricade of solid earth north of the city from the Northwestern railroad tracka to the river bank. Just at the preent tlmo this levee Is paying for Itself by protecting the whole- upper pirt of the city from a bad overflow of the Mlste.url river. The water reached the foot of the levee early sterday morning and was titoppcd by on embankment of solid earth nuny feet thick and with a crest eight or te > n feet above the flood. The embankment waa finished about HOVOII ycara ago , but It was started a year or two after the disas trous Hood ot 1S81 It was In the discharge of hlr duty na chairman of the council com mittee that had the work In charge tint Al derman Lacey contracted the cold that caused him to lose tils life .

Many of the city olllccrs were out there jestenlay afternoon and were contemplating with unconcealed satisfaction the good work the leveei ID doing. At C o'clock last night there wan a broad theft of water to the north a linen' as far as the e > o could reach.

X MANY DEFECTS IN THE BILL Oity Council Protests Against Proposed Legislation. RECOMMENDS IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS Major Cm * oti and City Atornc ) Hitxcltnii Appointed nn a Committee- ( Jo to UCK .Molncn Toilnj. The city council held a meeting last even Ing for the purpose of considering the bll affecting elites and towns which line pastwd the senate and 4s certain to b ° como a law Iho bill will affect every city and town In the state. A number of copies of the bll wcro placed In the hands of the members \\lillo City Attorney Hazelton went throng ! It and pointed out the defects and fralltle that particularly affected Council Bluffs , The bill was coldly rcferrod to frceiuently by members of the council as "the boodle bill. ' Mayor Carson stated that the object o calling the special meeting was to protcs against the bill becoming a law In Its prcs ent condition. The sections referring to th Board of Park Commissioners was read n number of times and given n great deal of at tentlon. Besides abolishing the commission In all cities of 20,000 and less and elr.igglnf , the commission Into politics in cities of larg population by attaching a fat salary to tin pesltlon , It makes the cotnmls&loncis ab solute mitocrnti ; and accountable to nobody eio far as the parks are concerned. It glvci them the absolute control of all the park1 of the city. It vests In them the title to all of the park lands and property The : may bell any path for anything they ma ; desire. The > may determine without Into fcrcnco whether or not any park lands al ready In uoj ar suitable for park purposes and if they decide ) It Is not they can sell o trade It off. They have the solo right am power to levy the regular park taxes , am make It moro than twice what It In nowam snap their fingers at the people. Und r UK present law not a cent of taxes can bo lovlee except by vote of the people at each spring election. If ths board Is not satisfied wltl tlio amount of money raised upon * ho lev > It has made the now law confers upon I the power to raise moro cas > h by Issuing bonds. These bonds can run fifty years one cannot run less than twenty jears. There Is no appeal by the people from anything th commissioners may do , and they have no control whatever of the board. Backed by political conspirators , the autocrats of the commission can collect a large fund of money and use It as they please and practically destroy stroy the pnrky. "It Is full of Iniquities.1 rcmatkcd City Attorney Hazelton as he read and explained , "and would create a commis sion that would ho dangerous In the hands o ! bad men " The bill also changes the present consti tution of the free public library board and confein autocratic powers upon the members It endows them with the power of levying the tax to support the lbrary and of bu > lng grounds and erecting buildings , regardless of the wishes of the people. It gives them , in fact , the simo extraordinary and despotic powers that it confers upon the park com missioners. The bill also provides for a biennial elec tion , at which all of the city officers and me-mbers of the council must ho elected , placing the rltj administration In absolutely new hands each two jears , and declares that thp city council must organize within one week after the election , Instead of two weeks , as at present. The new law strangely omits to make any provision for the counting of the ballots at the cltv elections or constituting authority to oinclally notify candidates of their election. It makes no provision for the levy of a bridge fund tat. Another feature of the new law Is that the ellj- council shall have no power to grant public franchises of any character or amenel or extend any that have already been grrnted. This alone can be done by a vote o' the people In a regular or special election , and all applicants for such franchises must pay all of the costs of such elections. The council expressed Its condemnation ol miny of tl o features In a vigorous manner , and tlliccted the city attorney to prepare a set of jcholutloiis to be forwarded to DCS Molnes trday Incorporating these recom mendations. "hat one half of the council and the audi tor anil city engineer be elected at each odd jear. I hi : Botno provision be made for the can vass of the vrtcb and notification of the oPIcers elected. Tlmt the time for the < orginlzatlon of the council Lo the RPCtii.ii Moi'day , Instead of the first Monday after tinelection. . That the beginning of the fiscal year should be definitely stated. That the rights of the mayor tovote bo more fully defined. That the powers of the library board ho curtailed and the right taken from the members to levy taxes and buy grounds and erect buildings. That the powers of the Park commission ers bo largely abridged , and the right to have such commission bo extended to all cities of the first class ; that the salaries of the members bo fixed at $100 a j-car Instead of $500 , which must Include the expenses of the members ; that the park tax bo levied only by vote of the people ; the title of nil parks to bo In the city ; park policemen to bo paid from the park fund ; that the com missioners shall have no power to Issue bonds or mortgage property ; that the city treasurer be treasurer of the park board , and that the commissioners be granted the same rights to purchase as they possess under the present law. The city attorney and the major were ap pointed a special committee to go to Des Molnes to carry the icsolutlons adopted by the council and ut > o every effort In con nection with the county delegation In the legislature to secure the modification of the law desired. The bill will be taken up In the senate on Wednesday , and Mayor Carson and City Attorney Ha/clton will leave for De Molnes on the 11 o'clock train today. rn.i.iMJ i.Tiiu i'Hii < jHT VAUII.S.

Interest In It IB Increasing dally. The press of the nation , almost with out exception , Is giving the Jublleo attention and the numerous letters received by the commission daliy attest the widespread In terest now existing In It. Tlio most pleas- ling I feature of the program will bo the re- [ ; ccptlon to the pioneers. The sturdy band I I which blazed the pathway of civilization J across the ) continent and made It possible for j man to set up an empire In the heart of the j Ilocky mountains and caused the vast areas east and west of the chain which Is "tho I backbone of tlio continent" to bo settled by a now happy people ? , will be received wltl 1 the deference due to comiucrors. There are few left of the men and women of 1847 , am' the Imjs and girls of that year are now sll- \oi-liairol men and matrons , but those who are still on this sldo of the veil will bo sum moned from the four corners of the cart ! In order that they may participate In the Jubilee , and with ejes now dim with age set I the wonderful change time has wrought In the country which , when they Hrst behold It was a barren and parched plain traversed only by wild beasts and Indians.

Camp will "be struck" on the same spot , the ce-rcmony of taking pos session of the country will be repeated , and the stirring scenes which markeul the prc-omptlon of the alley will be re-enacted by many of the original participants. The reception which will be given In the taber nacle to them will be an event which will be marked down In history as one of the most memorable o\er recorded In the na tion.

D. , April 12. ( Special Telegram. ) In the United States court Handsome. Elk , the Untie Sioux , wan ar raigned for murder. He It one of the most notorious of the bud Indians and shot a policeman while resisting arrest. The shooting occurred Apt II 13 , 159(5 ( , and resulted partly from the fact tint Handsome Klk lived quite close to the reservation line , and was the possessor of a number of cat tle. These occasionally Btrajcd to the ceded portion of thu reservation , and Handsome Klk , In leaving the reservation to bring them back , violated an order of the United States Indian agent prohibiting Indians leaving the reservation without a permit. Another % cr- elon Is that Handsome Elk was accustomed to do his trading at a etoro kept by a white man at a point about three-quarters of a tntlo from the reservation line , and had spoken a good word for the store to Indian friends who lived In the vicinity. A post trader who pd > s a Fovcrnmcnt license for the privilege of conducting a gcnrial store at the agency U also alleged to have made complaint to the acting Indian agent against these Indians , and Handsome Elk In particular , for leaving thu i enervation wUhoul parses to do thflr trading at stores other than that at the age ncy. Nevertheless , Uenr Shield and Hey Elk , Indian policemen , were sent to arrest Hand some. Elk and take him to the agency. Uoy Elk and Handsome Elk had never been friends , the latter alleging that the former had on numerous occasions used his offi cial position for the purpose of annoying I him j and causing him trouble. Owing to this feeling It was perhaps natural that trouble resulted : when the policeman dismounted In front i of his enemy's house , entered the door and called on Handsome- Elk to accompany him to the agency. The defense Is prepared to show that the latter replied that ho had rheumatism and must get his pony and started toward the door , when the policeman drawing his six-shooter and waving It threat eningly , said : "I will take > ou to the agency dead ! " Handsome Elk himself sa > s he then ran to his stable , about thirty paces dlotant , where ho had left his Winchester rlllo. Whllo going to the stable ho saw Hear Shield , whom ho linil not before noticed , on horseback , and heard him cry "Shoot ! " "Shoot ! " Hey Elk ran out of the house , hurriedly mounted his pony , and then both shouted "Shoot1" "Shoot ! " each appearing afraid to lire the first shot Hoth had weapons In their hands re.uly for Instant action In nn Instant Handsome Elk opened fire. Ono bullet passed through Hey Elk's thigh and struck his saddle , while another passed through the lower left sldo of Hear Shield , Inflicting a wound from which ho did not rcco\er for several months. ciAvr I'owuiJii KILLS MIM2HS.

DDS MOINCS , April 12. ( Special Tele gram. ) The senate went Into the blue law business today In consideration of the crimes and punishments bill. Blancharet started It with an amendment to make It criminal to exhibit klnetoscopo or other representations of prbo fights , bull fighte , etc. , and to make penalties for giving the exhibitions , renting halls for them , or e\en attending them. For this last offense the penalty proposed Is a fine of ? 5 to $25. It carried ! by a vote of 23 to 7. Then Bell offered an amendment to provide severe penalties for playing base ball or foot ball on Sundaj- , and this , too , car ried. Motions for reconsideration vvcro filed In both cases and there will be a lively con- cst when theie Is a full attendance. The senate accepted the recommendation of the committee to drop out the house ( sec tion providing fines and jail sentences for cursing and swearing at another peison pub licly. The anti-Sunday ball amendment , bate ball men say , will drive all base ball playing ! out of the state If It goes Into effect , as there la not a town that can support a club without Sunday games. The penalty for the marriage of cousins , recommended by the hoi.6C , was cut out by the senate , and cousins will many If they choose. The house considered the senate bill relat ing to the state llbiary and restoreel the old law. The senoto had taken the power of appointing the librarian out of the hands of the goveinor and placed It In the hands of the trustees of the library. It had also cut the salary fiom $1,200 to $1,000. imviiATio.v COMIS TO'TIIK h.u.vrs. Confcrcnuf n l.aiiiiinl MiiKrN Apiiilii | < - IIIIIN ulth fire'iit IVflliiK. LAMONI , la. , April 12.
