MACCABEES GET STATE BANNER
Tremendous Demonstration Attends
Avrnrillnsr of Hie Coveted
Trophy.
The exercises attondant on the presenta
tion of tho state banner to Council Bluffs
int KnlehtH of the Maccabees, last night
packed the Dohany opera house and hun
dreds were unablo to got instae tne aoors.
Every available Inch of standing room in
tho theater was occupied, people even
standing rows deep In tho balcony and gal
lery. It Is bcllovcd to havo been tho largest
audlonce ever assembled under the roof of
the opora house.
Tho demonstration opened with a parade
through tho principal down-town streets,
which, but for tho snow on the ground ro
scmbled a Fourth of July Jollification. Col
ored lights illuminated the streets alonn
tho line of march and tho scene was bright
ened with an elaborate display of fireworks.
It Is estimated that nearly 1.000 members of
ho order and their friends wore In line.
Owing to the cold and snow somo of th
proposed features of tho parado were
omitted.
At tho opora Iioubo tho exercises were
opened by an nddross of welcome from
Mayor Jennings, who complimented the
nrrtr on Its victory in securing the stat
bannor for the largest tent In Iowa. Thomas
Q. Harrison mado an eloquent response and
extended a welcomo to tho visitors on bo
half of the Council Bluffs tent.
In presenting tho banner State Commis
sioner J. M. Ermorlns spoke somewhat nt
length on tho benefits of fraternal organi
zations and tho order which ho represented
In particular. He tntersporscd his address
with n number of humorous anecdotes which
pleased his large audience. Addresses wero
also mado by Judgo Scott. City Solicitor
Wodsworth, H, J, Chambers and Rev.
George Edward Walk.
The exorcises at tho Dohany opera house
were to be followed by a ball at Royal
Arcanum hall, but tho crowd which filled
tho hall, corridors nnd stairways of the
Shugart building mndo dancing an Impossi
bility. Tho tent had extended a general In
vitation to the public to attend the ball
and consequently the crowd was larger
than any two halls In tho city could ac
commodate. Bloux City, Marshalltown. Atlantic
Omaha, South Omaha and other town wore
represented by large dolegatlous.
Three years ago Council Bluffs tent won
tho state banner for the largest member
ship, but only retained It alx monthB, Mar
shalltown wresting It from it. The first
of this year the local tent had a member
ship of sixty-four, which placed It .well
ahead of all rivals and gave It the much
coveted banner. Council Bluffs tent,
Knights of tho Maccabees, was organlrod
Juno 19, 1894, with forty charter members.
It has enjoyed a steady growth ever since.
Invrstlnir llnllnrtl Trust Fund.

odore F. Myers and Fred Illume, trustees of
the Ballard trust fund, to Invest the fund

place and tho fund was removed from this
city. Myers and Blumo am residents of
Audubon. Tho fund of $20,000 was created

of n Baltimore company gtvon by Mr. Pusey
Is still n force and will bo called upon to
make good any dcflclcrfcy In tho fund that
may arise from tho failure to reallzo on
somo of tho securities In which Mr. Pusey
Invested the money of tho fund.
GIDEON 'SUTHERLAND LOSES
Prmonnl Injury Dnmnur Stilt Decided
In Favor of (lie City of
Council .linn's.
Tho personal Injury damage suit of Old
con Sutherland of Omaha against tho city
of Council Bluffs was decided yesterday aft
ernoon In tho district court In favor, of tho
municipality. The case was given to the
Jury at 4 o'clock and three-quarters of an
hour later It brought in a verdict In favor
of tho city. Sutherland, who formed n
party of Omaha and South Omaha people
who were occupants of a carryall which was
overturned on Broadway near the Illinois
Central tracks one evening In July, 1900,
sued for $3, GOO. Ho claimed that his shoul
der had been permanently Injured nnd that
a new suit of clothes valued at $50 had been
ruined by tho mud.
Tho chief witness on behalf of the city
was Police Officer Busse, who patrolled the
West Broadway beat tho night of tho acci
dent. His testimony showed that a lantffn
had been placed In tho mudholo which was
alleged to have been the cause of the carry
all upsetting. Busso also testified that at
the time of tho accident he was attracted
to tho sccno by hearing much laughter and
merriment. Ho found the carryall party
upset In tho mud and laughing at one an
other's plight. In answer to his Inquiries
If any of tho party was hurt or Injured,
Officer Busso testified thai he had been In
formed that none of the party was In any
way Injured.
This is the second damage suit arising
from this accident that has been decided In
favor of tho city. Tho first was that of
Mrs. J. Itozzclle, who sued for $3,000. She
haB since been granted a new trial.
Suits have been filed by C. B. Wilson and
Louisa Smith and were to havo followed the
Sutherland caso at this term. Yesterday the
suits were continued until next term by
agreement at tho request of the plaintiffs.
Under tho rule Judgo Thornell taxed $10 to
each of the plaintiffs for tho continuance.
It was stated yesterday that the proso
cutlon of theeo two suits depended upon the
verdict returned In tho Sutherland case.
Now that tho city has secured a verdict tn
Its favor for tho second time It Is thought
lmprobablo that tho other suits will bo
prosecuted.
Occupants of tho caryall alt filed claims
against tho city aggregating upward of $40.
000, but only four suits wcro ever com
menced. The other claimants wcro said to
bo awaiting tho result of tho suits In
stituted before bringing tholr actions.
Omit McKlnlpy Crlcliratlon.
Owing to tho recent changing In tho
grade- caused by tho close of the first
semester of tho school year the anniversary
of the birthday of tho martyred president,
William McKlnley, was not observed tn the
publlo schools of this city yesterday. The
opening of the new semester was Monday,
when tho pupils wero promoted one grade
and there had been no Jlmo to prepare
programs for tho proper observance of tho
day.
Superintendent Clifford Is, howovor, ar
ranging for patriotic exercises In the schools
on Friday, February 21, when the birthdays
of Washington, Lincoln and McKlnley will
be Jointly observed with appropriate ex
ercises. In view of the fact that ihe school chil
dren havo been solicited for subscriptions
for the monument to Colonel Kinsman, It
has not yet been decided whether a sub
scription will bo taken up for the McKlnloy
national memorial. Tho Kinsman collection
among tho children of the city will be taken
up February 4.
County Attorney Opposes Dills,
County Attorney KUlpack Is not of tho
same opinion as City Solicitor Wadsworth
that tho county Is Itablo for the rent of
premises occupied by smallpox patients
while under quarantine. Ho believes the
law providing for furnishing provisions and
medical attention to persons suffering from
contagious diseases who aro unablo to pay
for tho same themselves, did not contem
plate making tho county liable for houses
or premises in which such persons were
living at the time they wcro placed under
quarantine. Mr. KUlpack will advise the
Board of County Supervisors whon It meets
In February to disallow all such claims rec
ommended by the city for payment with
other smallpox bills.
Musicians Seek to Organise,
A meeting of local musicians who are In
terested in forming a union will be held
this evening In Labor hall. J. GKuhn, who
has taken a prominent part In bringing
about the organization of tho local music
ians, has secured sufficient signatures to. ob
tain a charter. In the ovont of the Omaha
union opposing tho formation of a union In
this city tho Trades and Labor assembly
will take tho matter up and If the Natlonat
Musical union refuses to grant a charter It
will appeal to the American Federation of
Labor. Ous Lotts, who holds a commission
as nn organizer under President Gompers
of the American Federation of Labor, will
bo present tonight to perfect tho organiza
tion. Ice Crop Is Sntlafaclory.
Tho continued cold spell has Insured an
amplo supply of Ico In Council Bluffs and
the dealers are feeling happier than they
wero two weeks ago. Tho local firms are
working all tho men they can obtain In or
der to harvest tho ice bofore a warm spell
of weather comes. It Is expected a full
crop will bo cut this year. Last year lit
tle Ice was cut In Council Bluffs bofore
February.

(From n Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Jan. 29. (Special.) This
afternoon at 3 o'clock the senate and house
met In Joint coiventlon, as by previous ar
rangement, and held memorial service for
the loto President McKlnley appropriate
to tho anniversary of his birthday. The
house chamber was filled to overflowing,
for, In addition to tho many visitors who
came especially for this meeting, thero were
nearly a hundred of tho delegates from the
Iowa Mothers' congress, which is holding
sessions In the city. Tho women had pre
viously been given nn Informal reception In
tho executive ofTlco by Governor and Mrs.
Cummins and had visited tho statehouse
nnd both branches of the legislature. The
memorial exercises included music and an
address on President McKlnley by Gov
ernor Cummins, who was a personal friend
of the late president.
Governor Cummins' Tribute.
Among other things, Governor Cummins
said':
William McKlnley believed nnd acted
upon the belief that to bo great and help
ful nnd powerful a man must know some
one thing better than any one else knew
It, and that the world was always on the
lookout for such a man.
He chose for his especial study one of
tho most dimcult, as well oh one of the
most controverted, subjects of his time nnd
he mastered It absolutely, so that beforo
many years had passed over his congres
sional career William McKlnley knew
more about tho productive capacity of the
united States, moro about the conditions
tinder which labor earned Its wage and
cnpltal Its return, moro about the pos
sibilities of Its magnificent future, than
any other man In America.
I yield to no man In admiration for nil
that McKlnley had done In the years pre
ceding tho Spanish war. Ho earned the
crown that ho wore, and it was brilliant
with tho rare Jewels which always sparkle
In the diadem of tho highest representative
of a freo people; but tho years which In
tervened between tho oloso of tho Bpanlsh
wnr nnd his death nro tho years which de
veloped and exhibited n sercno greatness, a.
true heart, an unselfish patriotism, a ton
der persistence more wonderful than the
world had ever beforo seen. Wo had en
tered tipon a new path, nnd although It
was a pnth of glory, It was dark and ob
scure. It was a strnngo country Into
which wo had gone, and wo wero full of
fear and apprehension. It was through
!h.'.s..Path nml tl,ls country that God sent
William McKlnley to lead us. nnd I am
sobor-mlndcd when 1 say that thero was
not another man. In all the republic whom
tho people .would havo followed so trust
fully and confidently as this man whose
memory Is now tilling our hearts.
When we gratefully nnd rnverently recall
his blameless life nnd his Christian death,
his courageous struggles, his purity of
thought, hl loftiness of purpose, his
steadiness of design, his serenity of mind
nnd IiIb deep nnd absorbing devotion to tho
public good, wo bnptlze ourselves In the
fountain of civic righteousness and will no
forth better armed for tho great struggle
of the world. It is an hour of dedication
nnd consecration, ns well as of commemo
ration. The Ruler of tho universe Is not
prodigal with such spirits, but wo rest
content with the thought that while they
do not come oftenr'they como at the right
time. U
