The cltj council held an adjourned ces
sion last evening to clean up some of the
work that was left unrutehcil at the last
regular mcot'mg a week ago Part of the
work to be accomplished was to take up and
complete the passage of Ihe general elec-
trlct ordinance that was introduced on lest
Monday night and advanced to its second
reading. The ordinance Is , however , con
sidered to be of such importcnce that it has
been decided to go slowly ta enacting It into
n law. It had been referred to the commlt-
leo of the whole for further consideration ,
but the committee had not time to give it
E'Ufllclent ' consideration. Several Important
amendments will most likely bo made , aud
some of the sections will be modified. j
Tlio new law required the council to de
cide the- tenure of office of all appointive
omcers , and the time hnd about trat spiral
when thU decision must bo made. An ordi
nance waa Introduced and passed making
the term of all such officers one jcar. The
council was also called upon to decide
whether the ollico of weighmaster should be
elective or appointive. I'nder the old law-
It was elective nnd the term was fixed at
two yeara Tlie new law gives the council
the option of maklnc this ofllce nnnolntive.
It was decided , however , not to Increase the
council's patronage , and an ordinance was
packed making it elective , which again fixes
the term at two jenrs.
The motor company asked for End was
granted permission to ccaslruct n sewer from
its power house on Second avenue and
Twenty-eighth street to Spoon lake , to bo
used to carry away the waste-waler from the
condensing eng'nce. The sewer Is to be
constructed at the cost of the company , and
will bo nearly n mile In length.
The fire committee was Instructed to ex
change two defective gongo now In use In the
hose houses for two others of modern make ,
and were allowed $150 to pay the difference
In price.
Twenty-second street , from Cochran park
to Broadway , \\aa ordered to be widened , and
the amount of $100 was appropriated for the
purpose of pajlng for the small strip of
ground required.
The alderman from the Third ward re
ported lhat a number of culverts on South
Third street were too low nnd were pre-
vrnling surface water from escaping. His
recommendatlco that they bo raised wao
approved.
The bill of the electric lighting company
for January , amounting to $9SO. was al
lowed after $04.23 had been deducted for
outage.
A bridge over Indlcn creek at Twenty-
eighth avenue , which was ordered con
structed several menthe ago and which has
not been done owing to the difficulty of
the residents In Iho vicinity deciding where
It should be located , was llnnlly located on
the avenue named. The property owners
living on Twenty-ninth avenue had agreed
to give the city free right of way for a portion
tion of the street If the bridge was located
there and picsented a numerously signed
politico to have the location changed. They
failed to make good their promises and lost
the bridge.
The cocncll adjourned to meet again In
two vvcckH.

The sale of the evening Globe , which was
scheduled to occur today , has been post
poned for three days by agreement of all
parties concerned , llccclver Chase Is directed
by order of court to sell the entire news
paper plant to the highest bidder to satisfy
a landlord's writ of atachmcnt amounting to
about $1,400 for unpaid rent , and labor
claims aggregating { 500 more. With the ad
dition of the costs that have accrued It will
require about J2.200 to clear up these clalnw
leaving n good many thousand dollars of un
paid debts and claims which will probably
bo extinguished with the sale of the plant
The postponement was for the purpose of
perfecting the tltlo and to glvo the attor
neys for the Campbell Printing Press com
pany an opporlunlty to file an amended pctl-
lion. ThU will be riled today In It the com
pany will claim that the title of the press
has not passed from It , regardless of the fact
that the company holds no lease upon the
press , The petition will allege that Miss
Dodge , attorney for the landlord , was noti
fied that the builders of the press had not
relinquished their claim upon the machine ,
and would not until the final payments had
been made. It Is expected that this matter
will be adjudicated by the court within the
three days , and the decision will show the
exact amount that must be paid to the re
ceiver to secure perfect title to the news
paper plant.
The ealo of the paper Is of considerable
Interest to the local democracy , for iho
democratic leaders believe that a good deal
depend ! ) upon having an organ In the city
campaign. So far a the receiver hna been
advised there are no prospective bidders ,
and It la expected that some of the creditors
will bid It in. The landlord's writ and the
labor claims tnko precedence of all others.
The largest other single creditor Is the bank
of Ofllcor Sc Pusey , vlilcii , hoJJu a mortgaged -
d calling for coyaularrepocU I
for | 3EOO. It Is barely possible that the bank
may conclude < o bid In the property In the
hope of laving Its Investment. The dally
it-sue of the paper has been discontinued for
several months.

Opposed to Uniform .Solimil llooUJ.
Deep Inteicst Is felt In the uniform text
book bill now under consideration bythe
Iowa legislature. The bill Is known as the
liny bill , and has for Its object the secur
ing of uniform text tiooks for all of the
schools of the state. It provides that there
( fiall be no changes In the school books used
In any of the public schools of the state
o\ccpt at the termination of periods of five
vcars. The object of the law Is to socuie
Immunity In all parts of the state fi'om an
noyance and expense resulting fiom too fre
quent cnangcfl In text books and at the mm"
tlmo provide pupils of the schools of the
state with the same text books.
School olllcera admit that the bill has
some good features , but dec'are that as o
whole It will operate against the Interests
o' the schools of the state , and especlallj
in the larger towns and cities. Strong pro
tests against the passage of the bill have
beer sent by Superintendent Hlsej and other
teachers and by several of the members
of the Board of Education. County Superin
tendent Savvjer Is also strongly opposed to
the enactment of the law , and has Joined
with other school people In making a strong
fight against It.

Levy fur I'nrk 1'nriioson.
The park commissioners held a special
meeting yesterday for the purpose of mak
ing the ta\ levy for Ihe coming jcar In ac-
1 cordanco with the provisions of the new-
law. Heretofore the levy has been made
once a jear at the regular meeting of the
board in Febiuary , but the new law requites
It to bo made for two joars , nnd it was
necessary to hold a special meeting to cor
rect the error. The usual resolution vvaz
passed fixing the tax at 1 mill for the two
years and authorizing it to be certified by
Iho clly clerk and placed on the county tax
books.
The levy will give about $5,000 a jear. The
board now has on hand about $1,200 , part of
which Is a balance carried over from last
year. The park Improvements contemplated
for the coming year will require the full
amount of the levy , but It was not the
original Intention of the board to make as
largo a levy for the succeeding jear. The
new law , however , could not bo evaded and
the full amount was made for both jears.

Considerable progress was made yesterday
In trying the case of L C. Smith against the
Board of education to recover the contract
price of his heating and ventilating appara
tus placed In the Irilgh school building last
fall. The plaintiff completed his testimony
and a number of witnesses were presented
for the defense. The outcome of the suit
will hinge upon the use of the large damper
that was placed In the chimney by Gmlth ,
and which ho claims was a parl of his de
vice. He alleges lhat when Ihe school board
made Its tests this damper was used , and
thai Us use enabled Iho board to get a
much greater degree of heat than could pos
slbly have been obtained without it. Thla
ho claims , was using a part of his Inventloi
to defeat him. The case Is being watchc <
wllh a good deal of Interest by all partle
concerned.

bo removed for proper cause after trial. Th
terms of executive officers shall bo six year
each , but the officers now holding position
shall continue six years from the passage o
this act. In case of conflict between th
poweis of Ihe board and supeilntendents Ih
decision of Iho board shall be final.
FULL CONTROL OF PATIENTS.
No Calient may be received at a hosplta
for Insane , lo bo cared for at stale ex
pense , wllhout order of the board ; If the reel
denco of such a person , outsldo Ihe Blale
can be ascertained , ho must be sent there
In order to prevent the colonization of out
of-the-stalo insane in Iowa , Ihe bill pro
vldes that no fees may bo paid to local ofli
ccrs for transporting such persons to the
asylums ; the asylum shall send an allendan
for such pcroons when llicy are properly
committed to an asjlum. This removca the
opportunlly for sheriffs to make fat fees ou
of handling nonresident paupers and is In
tended to put an end to this Importation
process.
No present may bo received by an Institu
tion or Its officers , for their own use or the
use of tlio Inmates , under any circumstances
from persons or conceins dealing in supplier
used by the institution. This is Intended lo
put an end to n custom which the Healy
committee disapproved. Largo Jobbing
houseu send great presents to the institu
tions at Christmas and gthcr times and the
committee did not believe the moral influence
of this was good.
The appointment of all employes shall bo
made by the superintendent. It Is unlawful
for a member of the- board to attempt In
any way to Influence any such appointment ,
This la to prevent the board becoming a
political machine , and doubtless can be re
lied on for efficiency , because a member ol
the board would hardly want to take the
chance of having a superintendent , In case
of trouble at some futura time , tell that he
lias violate ! Ihls eecllon by Influencing
appointments.
Salaries shall bo fixed by the board , ex
cept for chief executives , and shall bo uni
form for like services In Instllulions of Ihe
same class , A list of employes and salaries
must bo published with regular reports , at
present there Is na published list of the
kind. The chief ofnvij Institution shall b3
entitled to food supplies for his family , to
ba drawn from the same stores from which
Inmates are suppllejj ; \mt \ the word family
shall Include only wife and minor children
This will prevent aupagntcndents malirtaln-
Ing their wives' remiops or daughlers' hus
bands at state expense ; .
Too much politics-dial ! be ground for re
moval ; and any a tenjpl to Influence the
political views of another stale employe
shall bo grounds fo Ul charge.
Local treasurers ore abolished , and pay
ments ehall bo nuiJciUrect from the slate
treasury by draft. This wll ! put on end to
nstltutlou treasurers drawing Intercut or
snug amounts of fitatp funds while Iho state

lands of local treasurers must be returned
to the state treasurer fluly 1.

By the 1C th of each month , each superln-

In 1S59 Abraham Lincoln , In company with
Secretary of State Hatch of Illinois , made a
visit of several dajs In Council Bluffs. lion
W. II. M. Puscy accounts for the long stay
by sa > lng that visitors who came to Council
Bluffs In 1S59 had lo wait for a steamboat to
get away , often many dajs. Halting In a
carriage drive to point out the probable loca
tion of lha bridge across Iho Missouri for the
Union Pacific railroad , Mr. Puscy eald : "You
are aware , Mr. Lincoln , that the act ot con
gress Incorporating and creating the Pacific
Railroad company has passed , and there Is
one clause near the close of the articles of
Incorporation which gives to Iho president
of the United States power to fix the turning
point of the Union Pacific railroad. You are
cvvnrc that the act provides tliat the terminal
point of the Union Pacific railroad shall bo
In Iowa , on a certain secllon east of and
past ttio town of Omaha Who knows but
> ou may bo elected next 5car and have to fix
the terminal point of the Union Pacific rail
road ? " Standing there for some minutes
with his arms folded , Lincoln's reply wan
"Well , nature seems to have laid the bottom
there and that Platte valley just to build
railroads on , didn't It ? "
In JSG3 Mr Pusey visited President Lin
coln at the While House and the president
arose nnd went to a map that was hanging
on the wall , and , tracing the Union Pacific ,
placing Itls linger as near as ho could on
that bluff where tie stood In 1S39 , oald "Mr
Pusey , I will never forget the Impiession
trade en mo In looking over that great
country that la to be developed by this
road , and the little side remark jou made
to me , that possibly I might bo called upon
to fK the terminal point ot the Union Pacific
railroad , gazing as It were light on the vcrj
spo > ns I did from that bluff "
During a visit to Couidl Bluffs in 1S39
Mr Lincoln pulled from his vest pocket a
litlle soiled piece of newspaper , In which
was rolled a land warrant. He asked Mr
Pusey to enler this ICO acres of land for him ,
sajlng : "I kept it as an heirloom of the
Black Hawk war. For jeaoand jeais It was
all I had , and after my.bojs began to grow
up I thought I would keep it nnd show them
that the'r falher had once been a soldier
Morris McHtnry , coinly suivejor of Craw
ford county , gives the rest of the storj
"The 120-acre land warrant of President Lin
coln for his services in the Black Hawk war
was located December 27 , 1S39. I think a
banker named Jacob IJunn of Springfield ,
111. , was bis agent , and that the wnnant
was sent to Officer & Pusej , bcnkera at Coun
cil Bluffs , who made the eatry at the Coun
cil Bluffs land oillce. The location was made
on the north half of Hie northeast qu.rtcr

clghly-four (84) ( ) , norlh of range Ihlrly-n'no

In Crawford counly. The township is named
Goodrich township. This land was held by
Iho Lincoln rotate until April 26 , 1892. I
was their local egenl for many years , but
Messrs. Officer & Pusey acted as their state
agents. As above , April 20 , 1S92 , Robert T
Lincoln and wife deeded this land lo Henry
Edwards ( unmarried ) , who deeded Ihe same
to E. T. Cochran of Denison. Robcit L'n-
coln received for the land $1,300. E T
Cochran and wife , on the 24th of October ,
1S92 , deeded the same to Peter F. Jepsen ,
the present owner , for cousidernllon of
$1,925. I have surveyed oa Iho lines of Ihe

DAVENPORT , la. , Feb. 14. ( Special. )
Davenport boasts of a fire that for three
months has defied Ha fire department. The
fire still burns harder than ever , and the
probability seems to be lhat It will continue
to burn until Iho spring rise of Ihe ( Missis
sippi.
II was lasl November lhat the fire de
partment was first called down to the
stretch of unused land south of the
Burlington , Cedar Rapids & Northern
tracks and west of. the foot of Green
streel. That land Is about all of It "made
ground , " and was formerly the dump of the
old Paige & Dixon. nfterwurds Kcator mill
Some boys probably had etarlcd a bonfire
on Iho dump , and Iho fire had worked down
into Iho refuse that answers for soil there
The fire department found smoke rising out
ot the ground over a patch about twenty
feet square. It poured some water on It
and heard no more of It for about a month.
In December the department was called
thcro ncain. For an entire Sumlnv a stream
was played on the smoking dump , A week
afterward It was smoking away as If the
water had never touched It.
Yesterday a dense smoke was rising from
a secllon of Iho dump several rods In cir
cumference. This portion of the dump has
been separated from the remainder by dig
ging a , trench behind It , the ditch being all
the way from three lo eight feet deep. As
water from the porous Boll gathers In the
ditch It is not thought the lire can get be
hind It , but smoke lhat arlbcs from two or
three other spots on the dump suggests thai
there Is fire In it that was not cut off by
the ditch.
Oulsldo the turning area the dump Is wet
and spongy , but the fire lodged In It dries
Is own -path through the mass of sa-vvdust
and ancient mill refuse , and will continue
to smoulder until flooded over by an unusual
rlso of the Mississippi.

DBS M01NES , Feb. H. ( Speclnl Tele
gram. ) Woman suffrage Is a special order
In the lioufio for tomorrow morning and It
Is charged that n deal has been miule- l > y
which a number of democrats arc tooto for
It. They would llko to have the measure
pars because the tcsponslblllty would bo on
the republicans , who control both branches.
Certain It IP that there la serious fear among
politicians and others \\l\o \ oppose the meas
ure that It will carry In the house , and that
If the senate democrats or any considerable
number of them enter such n deal , it may
passa the upper body. There are thirty-eight
democrats In the house nnd If they are In
such n deal they could easily pass the mcao-
uro In that body. In the ncnato rjorrell nnd
Uoltcr , democrats , are known to fa\or the
measure end It Is rumored that two or three
others may vote for It. The suffragists arc
well pleased with the situation.
The house also has a. ooclul order for to-
monow on the Van Houten bill to allow
counties to require Interest to bo paid by
banks carrjlng deposits of county money
It passed the senate , but was recommended
by the house committee for indefinite post
ponement. The Ptnlck bill for llst'ng and
taxing mortgages Is also n special order for
tomorrow.
The scnnto schools committee placed n laet
nail In the colTei of state milformltj and

the measure unanimously.
The house committee on npproprlatlo-s
th',3 ' afternoon recommended an approprla
lion of $2,500 to compensate the nirnibpro
of the legislative eommlttco which ouperv sed
the publication of the roilc. There la a goo' '
deal of opposition to the measure- and Van
Houten declares ho will ralso the point
that such an appropriation Is unconstitu
tional.
The house nnd senate committees on board
of control met Jo'ntly tonight and the Ilcnlv
bill won another victory. The house eom
mlttco favoicd plac'ug the three laige edu
cational Institutions ) under some measure of
supervision by the board , vvhllo the senate
committee opposed It. Thl-j was finally left
as the only point of dlffcicnce , the house
members agreeing to accept the senate bill
without change except ns to this feature
It was at labt agreed that the house com
mittee should report the scnato bill without
change , but when the measure was taltcn
up cri the floor amendments should bo pre-
"enleil engrafting into It the feature of
uuperv Isory control of these Institutions nnd
allowed to take their chance In the scrim
mage. It is a complete victory for the
Healy bill and regarded as presag ng the
certain passage of the measure. The house
proposal a ) to the educational Institution
is not regarded as csscotlal vvhither it Is
adopted or rejected.
The house passed bills changing the phar
macy laws In minor rc&pects , nnd allow lug
a change of locaticu of pharmacy business
