The Board of Education held a sped
meeting last night , which wa.s called for tl
alleged purpose of accepting the official boi
of George S. Davis , the newly elected trcai
urer of the chool board. The board hi
fixed the bond at $100,000 and Mr. Davis , 1 :
Ulead of going to the local banks and pcrml
ting them to fill this bond In consldcratlc
of having the school funds placid on deposl

which he pays $200 a year. This seemed

meeting was called to order last night a m
Jorlty of the members eeemcd to be rath
uneasy about It. The board announced tli
It bad made tbe discovery that the bondlr
company only had a paid In capital of $501
000 , and under the law this would Invallda
the bond , tbo law. It woe alleged , not pe
mlttlng tbo board to accept a bond from ai
company In excees of 10 per cent of Us pa
up capital , which would only make this boi
good for $50,000. 'Mr. ' Davis offered to gl'
n Interim bond from this company until
guaranty bond satisfactory to the board cou
be secured. This proposition was rcjecti
nd the grounds 'that had already been glvt

Ing a bank bond were materially atrengtl

situation ho at once telephoned to the Omal
representative of the company and In a fe
minutes came back with the statement th
the paid In capital of the bonding compai
was $1,000,000. Tli Id somewhat disconcert )
the board , but It continued In "executive ee

RESULT OF THE ELECTI01
Several Eurf rises in Store for the Lou
Politicians ,
VOTERS IGNORE ALL OF THE PARTY LINE
Victor Jennlntc * , Mnyor-Elcct , Feel
that He Owe * HI * I'lnce to
the Support1 of the
llepuullcnni.
Neither the democrats nor republicans hai
sufficiently recovered from the shock of BUI
prlso at the result of the city election c
Monday to tell how It occurred. When tl
polls closed there was not a man among tl
leaders of either party who would hazai
an opinion ae to the result or declare wll
any degree of enthusiasm his belief that h
party would win. There was a feeling <
the part of the republican managers that
largo number of republicans would either r
train from voting or cast their .ballots again
tbo republican nominees. This Imprcssli
was also acquired by the democrats , but thi
were even less able to gauge the extent
the probable revolt , and both sides were In
state of uncertainty that appro-idled tl
acute all day long.
The revolt came with greater magnltui
than was deemed possible by the republica :
or hoped for by the democrats. It swe
away the entire republican ticket , wltb t\
minor exceptions. One of these candldat
was a ward alderman who was shrev
enough to fix : things In Wls ward , and t !
otbar was the head of ono of the depai
ments , the auditor's office. Mr. Evans' ele
tlon Involved the change of nearly 700 vote
for ho ran about that far ahead of the oth
republican candidates. It was duo large
to his efficiency and personal popularity , ai
still more largely to the fact that he d
not come within the domination of the "b
four. " The result of the election was pure
and sliaiply a revolt from the- domination
the party by a few men who have asaum
that privilege within the last few yeai
The party was doomed to defeat when It w
announced that thceo managers had nam
the ticket as early as the holidays , and
tb3 first of the year had selected the nam
of a majority of the delegates to the conve
tlon. Under the circumstances there was 1
tie chance for the convention to do otherwl
than It did , and the selection of the tick
only emphasized a little more emphatlcal
the distaste republican voters lelt for t
doses that were cooked up for them.
DEMOCRATS WELL ORGANIZED.
Goad generalship marked the dcmocra
campaign from the start. A good start w
made by putting up a ticket for the schi
election that was unassailable , and was fi
lowed by placing before the voters a cl
ticket that was the beat product of a den
cratlc convention for many years.
Another feature of the election is attrac
Ing a good deal of attention. The vote c :
was the largest In the history of the cl
approximating al.r.ost 5,000. Either Coun
Bluffs has grown wonderfully within the li
year or two or else there haa been some <
tensive colonizing or fraudulent voting doi
The latter charge was freely mads yesterd
and on election day. The registration Hi
were examined yesterday and the troul
was taken to hunt up some of the susplclo
case ? . In a numb3r of Instances the str <
number given was found to be a vacant 1
In otl.cr Instances tbe most careful Inves
gallons failed to disclose the fact that a
man of the name given ever resided the
Whether there was enough of these kind
votes placed In the ballot boxes to char
the result Is an Interesting question tl
will perhaps be inquired Into If some
the defeated candidates who were ehy ot
a comparatively small number of votes ta
a notion to contest tbe election. It Is dou
ful , however , It any of them do so. 7
fact that the result Is not displeasing to
largo majority of tbe voters will not i
courage any contests.
Victor Jennings , the new mayor , Is
citizen wbo has lived here for many yea
Is a successful business man , and has a cle
record In every respect. There Is no roan
to believe that he will not give tbe city t
right kind of an administration and rcdei
the promise be made immediately after 1
nomination. His democratic admirers ba
been very desirous of making him ma ]
for a number of years , and on two prevlc
occasions he has been their candidate
the first contest he was defeated by I
Cleaver by only thirty-seven votes , wh
all of tbo remainder of the republican tlcl
went through with majorities many tin
greater. Two years ago he was defeat
by Mayor Carrco by only tblrty-flve vet
Ho Is a vigorous young man and notwli
standing all of the alleged promises he I
been charged with having made to pai
heelers he will undoubtedly be a mayor <
pable of appreciating the compliment of bo !
elected by a majority of nearly 400r Tl
majority was essentially composed ot repu
llcan votes.
Wben questioned on his policy , Mr. J (
nlngH declared that be realized tbe respc
stblllty that bad been placed upon him , a
would not be unmindful of ttio fact tl
the better clement of the republican pai
had voted for hltn. Ho declared that
felt at the start that he would be sa <
recreant to hie trust If he made one i
polntment or took one step tbat would mi
the disapproval of the.se republicans. Tl
must be taken as a sufficient indication tl
his appointments will not be In the line
rewards for party fealty , but for the bi
Interests of ( tie city.
POSSIBLE CONTEST.
There Is a possibility ot a contest in t
courts for the office of city englnei
Thomas Tostevln , the republican Candida
Is willing to acknowledge that he was fu
and fairly beaten by Sam Etnyre , the d :
ocrat , but since tbo election the qucstl
of Mr. Etnyre's eligibility to the office li
came up for consideration. The charge
made that he Is not a qualified citizen
the state , but Is really a citizen of Illlno
When Mr. Etnyre was beaten for re-electl
two years ago be left the city and went
Utah , where be was engaged In cnglnecrl
work until cold weather set In. He th
returned east , but only stopped In Coun
Bluffs a short time and proceeded to his <
homo at Oregon , III. , where ho went li
buDlness. Ho remained there until soi
tlmo last January , when he returned
Council Bluffs and made a quiet cam pal
for the democratic nomination. He did i
register here nor attempt to vote , but
asserts that ho did not acquire citizens !
In Illinois and declares that ho has regrad
Council Bluffs as his legal residence and 1
neglect to register was an oversight , i
Tostevln does not look wltb favor upon t
proposition to enter Into a contest.

will bo given the Inquisitors la not large
and they only met and adjourned afte
organizing.
The docket for the term Is fully as larg
aa at any previous time and the probablllt ;
Is that the term will not be concluded be
fore Juno 1. Among the most Importan
cases to bo tried will be the retrial of th
big damage case of Deere , Wells & Cc

I H Is expected that this case will bo reache

"Of all fascinating places under the eun , "
said a gentleman who has traveled much ,
"tho Island of Tahlta , oneof the Society Is
lands , Is the most fascinating. In that
country a llttlcl earth lost In a vast ocean ,
nature has done everything to make Indolent
nouls happy. The climate Is temperate nnd
even all the year round , the vegetation Is
luxuriant , the wonun beautiful , and the
nights full of perfume and mystical light ,
stir the mot practical mind to love of medi
tation and dreaming. The Influence of this
dreamy , lazy life Is very Insidious. It Is nut
necessary to work as the Island furnishes
food without the labor of tillage' ' . I know
a number of Americans and French who have
gone thcro for a visit and have became so
enraptured with the languorous existence
that , like the visitors of lotus land , they He
down and forget friends , home , ambition und
everything , I remember how I used to feel
the Influence steal over me. Many a tlmo
I wished earnestly to cast my lot with those
languorous people. I can look back now nnd
see myself an I lay onenlsht against a
(
cocoanut tree In a sort of ecstaoy of medi
tation. Overhead was a sky brlcht With a
million stars. Sounds came to me In a
etrango fashion , blending Into a murmur. A
short distance away a group of natives , girls
and men , were shouting the rhythmic chant
of the upu-upa dance. I thought of myself
on this little Isle , with ocean on every side
and New Orleans so many miles distant
Nothing seemed real to me but that spot
In which one could hear Indistinctly the
chant of the slngero and the sobbing of the
waves ; a mysterious charm possessed me. "

H remains for a northwestern man to
make a discovery that will result In bis
name going downto posterity as .one of the
discoverers that have majle thla country
famous. This paper Is pleased to announce
that Prof. J. H. Austin , the eminent ecalp
opeclallst and dermatologist , now of Minne
apolis , has made a discovery which will
reuk wltb the greatest of the age. After
fifteen years of persevering experiments he
has eucceeded In producing a drug , which la
a product chiefly of soft coal , with other in
gredients , having tbo property of almost in
stantly curing dandruff , eczema and other
affections of tbe ecalp and ekln , by destroy
ing the mlcrobeo which produce these dls-
enocE. This remarkable result is accom
plished without the ellgheet Injury to tbo
skin. Satisfied that bis discovery would
prove of Inestimable benefit to afflicted man
kind , Prof. Auatln has during the past few
months treated more than 15,000 people with
this wonderful dlccovery , which Is called
"Austin's Antiseptic Dandruff Destroyer and
J New Hair Grower. " The discoverer expects
that tbo manufacture will ere long reach
huge dimensions , and the few months tbat
j have elapsed since he put tbo discovery on
i the market bears him out In the belief. At
j present seven men are engaged constantly In
' producing and putting up the medicine. It
I lo guaranteed to atop the falling out ot hair
I la ten daja , and many ot tbe physicians wbo
have tried and tested It are prescribing U to
1 patients thus afflicted.
At the request of a score of people , Prof.
i Austin has been Invited to give lectures on
the proper care of tbe hair and scalp In tbls
i state , but the calls upon his time bave made
i It Impossible. His laboratory bas been un
able to supply the demand , but wltb an In
creased force of chemists he Is now able to
, supply tbe priceless preparation. If you send
a few dandruff scales from your head and
Sl.OO to Prof. J. H. Austin , Syndicate Arcade ,
Minneapolis , Minn. , be will send you by
return mall his booklet giving tbe proper
I treatment of balr end scalp to prevent dan

considerable doctoring with lending physi
cians , who were tm.ihln to help him. ho gnvo
up In dot-pair. He began studying Into the
causes of Rheumatism nnd after much ex

found n remedy which cured him In n short

ami cured his friends nnd' ' neighbors ami
now propoici to cure the. world. But Gloria
Tonic cured him so tlmt he htisnt hnd a
twitch of pain. Ho sends n trial package of
hl < j remedy free to anyone who will take the
trouble to write for It. The remedy cured
an old man In Texas who had suffered forty
