PEACE IN THE SALOON WAR
County Attorney I'liiils Neiv I,ti-v Lena
btrliient Than the
Old.
" -
The controversy be'tween ' the' saloon men
of this city nnd County Attorney Klllpack
over the filing of tho $3,000 bonds Is ex-.
pected to reach a peaceful termination. It
was discovered yesterday that under tho
new h'w; the terms and conditions ot tho
bond required are not so stringent as under
the old law. Up to yesterday the county
auditor had been using a form ot bond
In voguo undor tho old law, tho conditions
ot which made tho signer responsible In
oh no of vlolntlon of the provisions ot tho
mulct law. This was tho thorn that stuck
In tho sldo of the saloon men, us they con
tended that no saloon could ha run without
vlalntlng somo of the provisions of tho
mulct law'.
The law requires that tho bond shall bo
only for tho purposo of making the signer
responslblo for tho payment of tho mulct
tax and ''all. dnmageB that may result from
tho salo ot Intoxicating liquors upon tho
premises." County Auditor Innes, as soon
as tho matter was called to bis attention,
made arrangements for new bonds and will
havo u supply In a tow days, when those
who havo already filed bonds can chango
them.
It Is understood that tho saloon men will
not object to file the new form ot bond and
thus end tho controversy between them and
tho county attorney.

WOMAN'S MOP HANDLE WINS
Mm. John llnllr Drlvm Off Strange
Man Who Claim Her Six
.Hhniitx.
With the vigorous uso of a mop handle,
the only weapon available, Mrs. John Hallo
of Harrison atrcct succeeded Monday In
driving off n strange man who was In the
act of loading six of her best shoats Into
his wngon. The mnn claimed to havo
purchased the shoats from Mrs. Ulallo's hus
band, but tho game would not work, as
Mrs. Hallo decided that tho shoats should!
remain In tho pen until' her husband re
turned homo and confirmed tho sale. Her
presence of mind nnd the vigor with which
sho manipulated tho mop handlo were suc
cessful In defending her six' shoats from
being carried nway.
It was about C o'clock In tho evening
when the man drove up to the Halle hog
pen In nn old tumble-down wagon and pre
pared to load six of the choicest shoats.
Tho squealing of tho hogs attracted Mrs.
Hnlle's attention. To her Inquiries the
stranger said ho had purchased tho Bhoats
from Hallo downtown and that thn latter
had told him to drivo up to his place and
get them on his way home. Mrs. Hallo
protested and tho man told her to go In
doors and mind her own business and ho
would attend to h.ls. Mrs. Hallo went In
doors but only to reappear in a moment
armed with a mop handle. As tho follow
was leaping over tho pen sho hit several
good raps on his head and forced him to
drop tho shoat he had hold of. The fellow
turned, as If to strike her, but Mrs. Hallo
dealt him another good blow across the face
nt tho somo time r,alllng on her neighbors
for help. Seeing the game was up tho man
Jumped Into his wagon and drove nway as
quick as the sorry team could trot.
Hallo on his return homo denied having
sold the shoats and nt onco notified the
police, giving a description of the would
be thlof. The police had been unable to
secure any trace of the fellow up to last
night.

LIBRARY TRUSTEES OBJECT
Deny (hnt the CM)- Council Una
HlKlit to Wipe Out Till
Levy.
Any
It Is possible tbnt the trustees of the free
public library will lock horns with the city
council over the 'question ot the right of the
latter body to wipe out entirely the pro
posed levy for the purposo of creating a
fund for tho purchase of renl estate and the
erection of n library building. While tho
members of the Library Hoard generally
concede the right of tho city council to re
duco the proposed levy fixed by the
trustees, they deny tho authority of th.t
aldermen to wipe It out entirely, Tlu
library trustees contend thnt the city coun
cil has misinterpreted the meaning of tho
law.
No action will bo tnken In the matter by
tho Library Iloard until the matter has
been thoroughly Investigated nnd legal
opinion had on tho question. A special
meeting of the board wilt be called to talk
over the matter cither the latter part of
this week or one day In the eorly part of
next. Tho trustees are much put out over
the action of the city council In turning
down tho proposed levy in n such a cold
blooded manner and some of them yester
day were In favor of nt once taking tbe
matter Into tho courts with a vljw If
posslblo to secure n writ of mandamus to
compel thu city council to certify to the
levy of 3 mills or such part of It as that
body might deem necessary.
Attorney Flnley Hurke, member cf tho
Hoard of Library Trustees, gave It as hts
opinion, while admitting thnt he had not.
given the question lull Investigation, tbat
tho city council had exceeded Its powers.
He was of tho opinion that the city coun
cil had the right to reduco the levy pro
posed by the library trustees If it saw fit,
but ho doubted If it had the authority to
wipe out the levy entirely. Attornjy W. S.
Ualrd, another of tho library trustees, waa
of a similar opinion.
The cutting out of the proposed library
building tax levy was decided upon by the
nldcrmcu nt a caucus held before the ses
sion of tha city council Monday night. Tho
aldermen cxplnln their action cn tho
grounds that they doubted whether It was
advisable to erect n building at this time
and, furthermore, no option had been re
cured by the library trustees for a site In
answer to this the trustees point to the
fact that any tar. levied this year will not
be collected until 1902, and tho funds will
not become nvnllnble much before 1903.
This being the situation the trustees d d
not Intend taking any steps townrd acquir
ing a site until the ensh was In the treas
ury or In prospect. A 3-mlll levy on this
year's valuation would bring In $11,200, not
more than sulllclcnt to purchase a suitable
"He with.
The trustees arc greatly disappointed at
tho turn tho matter has taken ns It Is an
0PC" secret that thoy.have for some time
been In correspondence with Andrew
Carnegie, and they hoped thnt If tho city,
secured a suitable site for the library, tho
millionaire would donate sufllclcnt of his
wealth to provide for the erection of the
building. It Is well known thut Mr.
Carnegie. In .every. Instance, refuses. ,to as
sist In the erection of a .publjc library un
til the clty has secured the site. As
Trustee Durke said yesterday: "Mr.
Carueglo believes In holplng those who help
themselves."
Undor tho new law the levy for the
maintenance of the library Is restricted to 1
mill, and the Income derived from this Is
almost entirely absorbed In paying the r nt
of the rooms In the Mcrrlam b ock and tho
salaries of tho librarian and her two a
slstants, leaving practically nothing wl'h
which to purchase books. With n llbtary
building the $000 a year now paid In r nt
could bo used In tho purchase of now books.
Trustee Dnlrd said: "I am much srr
prlsed at the action of tho city council. In
my opinion It Is casting a slight on hc
trustees ot tho public library, as their
action In making this levy was only dono
after due consideration and for tho best n
tcrests of the patrons of tho Institution rnl
(he citizens tn general of Council Dluffa. A
city of the elzo of Council Bluffs, It seems to
me, ought to show mifuclent enterprise tu
hnvo a library building of its own."
M. F. rtohrer, president of tho Llbr ry
Board, was not In tho city yesterday, b''t
hp will be nsketl ns soon as bo returns to
call a special meeting In order that the
matter may be discussed and some action
taken.

(From n Staff Correspondent.)
DBS MOINES, Aug. 27. (Special.) The
Iown Stnto Antl-Snloon league hud fifty
persons present nt Its stato convention to
day and held one of the most snlrlted meet
ings In Its history, Tho chief subject for
consideration was what to do In tho matter
of indorsing candidates nnd parties this
year in tho stnto campaign. Superintend
cnt Abrnms of tho league, who Is employed
on a salary to work for the enforcement
of the present laws, created a sensation
by declaring his intention to work and
voto for Cummins, tho republican candl
date for governor, nnd others did the samo
thing, but the prevailing sentiment seemed
to be In favor of Indorsing tho candidate
of the' prohibition party for governor. Tho
committee, on resolutions brought in two
reports. The majority report was as fol
lows:
The Iown Anti-Saloon league, In stato
convention nsscmuieu, declares Its unnlter-
tllllO OIIIIOHtltlll In tllt Rulontl In nnv fnrni.
whether It be u mulct or llecnsu saloon. Wp
are opposed to nny candidate who directly
or imiirccuy rnvors tne sale In this stnto
of Intoxicating liquors ns n beverage, nnd
we pledge ourselves In this rampulgn to
oppose tho election of nny candidate who Is
not In harmony with tho resolutions. Wo
bellevo It to be the duty of the Christian
nnd temperance voters of tho state to cast
their votes for n cnndldnto for governor
nledired to nliHnlntn iirnhlhitinn nt tim
liquor triilllc, nnd we therefore recommend,
thnt all voters In sympathy with tho home
nnd ngnlust the saloon that they shall vote
for A. U. Coates for governor nnd In nil
minor olllces to' voto for such cnudldatcM
without regard to party who are known as
truo temperance men.
The resolutions nUo favor stringent meas
ures for the enforcement of the present
laws of tho stale nnd Indarso tho work of
the state superintendent of anti-saloon
work. The minority report simply con
demned tho democratic party of Iowa for
having declared In favor of the repeal of
tho mulct law and In favor of a local Op
tion law.
Tho presentation of tho reports called
for a long discussion, which grew very
warm nt times. It was openly chnrged that
some of the men present wero tUvro to
work In the Interest of tho republican can
didate for governor, while on tho other
hund It was nsscrted that the resolutions
committee, had been packed by persons
who hail no sympathy with tho work of thu
Antl-Snlocn league.
After a stormy meeting a'.. afternoon
the State Antt-Saloon leaguo modified the
majority report of tho committee on reso
lutions nnd adopted It, thus endorsing the
prohibition candidate for governor nnd mak
ing the leaguo n partisan organization, A
minority report on election of officers was
presented, which differed only from the
majority report lo'.rccommendlng tho sub
stitution of the -name of Row C. II. Mar
shall of this city 'as superintendent of en
forcement wor )n Iowa In place of Rov.
II. H. Abrams, vjhjljas been superintend
ent. The resolutions recite that Abrams
Is tobedeposcd'batisa he Jias. expressed
himself In favor .of the election of Cum
mins, republican, yfor governor. The mi
nority report was adopted, 32 to 15, after
spirited discussion,, In which delegates be
came abusive arid several times personal
encounters were'avolded only by strong men
Interfering nnd the police were called for
on several occasions. Somo doubt arises
ns to whother the Convention had a right
to depose Abrams and the executive- com
mittee claims the right to employ him, and
may do so.
Tho following officers were reported by
the nominating committee: Stato super
intendent, It. II. Abrams, De Moines;
president, I,. S. Coflln, Fort Dodgo; first
vlco president, II. J. Campbell, Des
Moines; second vice president, C. F. Hrock
way, Iowa City; secretary, Mott R. Sawyer,
Centervlllo; treasurer, Alexander Hastlc,
Des Moines.
Jtitlleliil Convention Outrnntr.
Tho Judicial convention for the Third dis
trict held In Osceola caused somo 111 feeling
among tho republicans In the southern part
of the state from the fact that a nomination
was made on ono ballot and by the sudden
changing of votes tho nominee was cheated
out of his victory, Thero were six can
didates. On the seventy-fourth ballot, In ac
cordance with an. agreement, Taylor county
gavo seven nnd a half votes to It. C. Honry
of Ringgold, nnd on the next ballot, a3 per
nsreement, Ringgold county gavo seven
votes to W. E. Miller of Taylor county. This
voto nominated Miller, but before It was an
nounced n verification was enlled for and tho
Ringgold delegation withdrew Its seven
votes given Miller, The Miller men claim
that tho voto was' given In accordance with
an agreement nnd they feel thoy wero be
trayed. In the end tho friends of Miller
nominated R. L. Parrlsh of Decatur county
to succeed Judge Tedford, resigned. The
nomlnco is an able lawyer of southern Iowa.

The person who is lucky enough to dis
cover a gold mine generally takes care not
to lose It ngaln, and yet within the 1. at
fifty yenra or so nearly a dozen cases of
such gross carelessness' have occurred. In
othT words, thero nro five mines In this
country that have been discovered at d'f
fcrent times and then lout two In Aus
tralia, ono In tho Ural mountains nnd nthcr3
scattered about In .various pirts of th3
world waiting for somo ono to como along
nnd claim them.
The mcfit famous Instnnco Is prcbibly thnt
of tho Stewart mlno In Utah. In 1819 n man
named Stewart was engaged by the govern
ment to carry the malls between Santa Fe
and San Francisco, nnd ono winter's night
he and his companions lost their w y.
Lenvlng the party nt n certain point he and
nnother went forward to ascertain their
whereabouts, and in doing so stumbled cn
the mine. They bound themselves under an
oath of secrecy, pocketed somo of ths
quartz, and taking note of the mine's posi-.
(Ion rejoined Jhelr companions und eventu
ally reached San Francisco; where tho
quartz was pronounced to be rich In pure
gold.
An expedition wns at onco farmed, nnd,
bended by Stewart, set cut to locato th?
spot, but after Six months' useless hunting
the search w? abandoned. Stownrt Is still
alive and believes that sooner or Inter It
will bs hl lot to rediscover the m'ne, which
has already cost speculators ever $2 0PO.00O.
There Is the Dead Man's mlno In south
Nevada, about which very little Ib known
except thnt It nust hold untold wealth. On i
May 3 1804, a man was found dying of thirst
out on tho plain and before ho died he de
scribed to his llndors a mine he had dlacov- '
ered somcwhero beyond the bills. In his
pockets wero carefully executed drnwlngs
of Its exact position, to sny nothing of sev
enteen nuggets of virgin gold, but even
with such material assistance they failed
to find tho mlno. Slnco then thousands of
people have gone out to look for It, hun
dreds have never returned, nnd money has
been poured out like water, yet this El
dorado, which undoubtedly exists, Is still
undiscovered.
The Mndre d'Oro mlno In Arlzonn nnd the
Golden Rlvor mlno In California have both
tho disadvantage of lying In districts which I
cannot be penetrated by white men, be
causo only the Indlnns can breatho the foul
atmosphero with impunity. Tho former
wns discovered In 1862 and the latter as re
cently na 1878, In both cases by natives.
Tho most extraordinary thing In connection
with tho Madro d'Oro mine Is that It was
worked for fifteen months by tho two men
who found It and enormous wealth raised,
but when they returned to the neighbor
hood, after Journeying over 300 miles to the
nearest town to dispose of their spoil and
procure provisions, tho elements had de
stroyed tholr landmarks nnd tho mlno was
lost. How much money has been spent In
useless ondcuvors to find It ngaln It would
bo dlflleult to say, but certainly not less
than $4,000,000.
In connection with tho discovery of tho
Illshnp mlno In western Australia n Fad In
cident Is recorded. The finder was a re
tired naval captain, named fllshop, wno
emigrated from Englnnd during tho great
gold rush of 1852. Arriving nt Perth he
started alono Inland and nfter an absonco I
of elijht months returned, bringing with him
several nuggets of tho purest metal. Mln-1
Ing Implements were purchased nnd nn ex-1
pedltlon formed, which started under his'
guidance, hilt, minute ns his plans were,
In leaving the mine he had lost It. j
Several ycara went by, during which ho1
Bpent tho whole of his prlvato means In
trying to rediscover tho Bpot. Then he be
gan to borrow money for tho samo purpose,
until at last ho was nrrested ond thrown
Into Jnll by his creditors, where ho dlod
broken hearted,
Rich ns tho Ural mountains are In nllver
few people know that they hide a gold mlno
that nwnlu a finder nlso. In 1874 an Aus
trian, named Klepmnnn, astonished Rus
sian financial circles by nrrlvlng In St.
Petersburg with several plecea of gold
quartz which ho found In tho Urals and ho
wanted to form n syndicate to work thn
mine. Hut at this point the Russlnn gov
ernment stepped In, appropriated the mlno
nnd otlored tho discoverer a considerable
fortune to point It out to them. Either
from his Inability to locato Ii or hta angur
nt being thwarted he failed to do so und
after spending 1.000,000 roubles In prospect
ing tho government offered n llfo pension
of 15,000 roubles per annum to anyono who
would rediscover It, provided, of courso,
that It proved genuine, but us yet no claim
ant has appeared.
Many a gold mine has been found under
tho sea and when flva years ago a poor
flshorman off Tlmaru In Now Zealand pulled
up a piece of quurU in his net he naturally
thought ho was on the high road to fortune.
Subsequently various syndicates have ex
pended over $1,000,000 in trying to locato
the mine, threo divers have lost their lives
In wandering about among tho rnckH, but
tho gold still remains hidden, though thero
Is overy rciison to believe that It U thero
