BLUFFS. MEMORIES OF HUNTING CLUB Csmmittssmen Who Signal NsM Yean Ago Aikad to Taka It Up. OBJECT TO f AYING FOR DEAD HOUNDS Large Samher of Dormant Cnaes Stricken from the Docket and Others Assigned loir Trial. Although it died a natural death ten years ago, the Council Bluffs Wolf and Pox Hunt ing club, or at least memories of it, were , . . . . . , w orougni to me yesierasy in m buh m iu. district court. In the suit In question Lewis Hammer, who was formcly in the lumber tuslncss in addition to being a member of the city council and a blue-blooded sports man, is seeking to recover on a note given by certain members of the hunting club in payment for lumber used In the construction r.f Ana kennels. Ben Marks, who rode to hounrl. hls youth in the old country, and ' .. .. Attorney W. H. Ware, who would rather drive or ride a horse any day than attend court, are the defendants in the suit. They were leading members of the WoH and Fox Hunting club and as members of the com mittee attached their signatures to the note for $128.38 which Hammer now seeks to re cover on. The note Is dated Ostober 9, 1891, and the interest has been piling up ever since. The original members of the Wolf and Fox Hunting club were W. H. Ware, Ben Marks, U C. Besley, E. M. Hunter, Lewis Hammer, W. L. Paxton, F. W. Spetman, Colonel W. H. Beck and William Maloney. The club started out with a grand flourish of trumpets, a pack of hounds was secured from some of the best kennels east and kennels were built at Lake Manama. The mounts of the local spcrtmen, however, were not hunters and the riders bad a hard time keeping In sight of the hounds. The stock of coyotes be came exhausted and interest in the club commenced to lag. Finally the club was only a club In name, the dogs were disposed of and Lake Manawa ceased to resound with the crack of the huntsman's whip or the merry sound of the huntsman's horn. The members of the club had arrived at the con- elusion that Council Bluffs and vicinity was not a hunting country and was not adapted for erc.veou.tr, riding on steed, which had never been trained to Jump anything except a board bill. The defendants Marks and Ware resist be ing made liable for the payment of the note OH the cT9''3e43 thst tby lrnel It simply as a committee of the club and that Hammer should sue every member of the club and not single them out. The hearing wa. not completed yesterday and will be resumed thts morning.

WHY THE GATE STANDS AJAR New Reason Assigned tor Opening; Denver Passsa-e to Other Roads. Railroad men have found another reason for the opening of the Denver gateway by the Union Pacific to the Rock Island and Burlington. It Is that an alliance was be ing brought about between the Clark and Moffat t people which would connect Sena tor Clark's San Pedro line at Salt Lake City .with Moffatt's Denver, Northwestern It Pacific. Whether thts alliance will be consum mated or abandoned, now that the gateway has been thrown open, is a matter of con siderable speculation! It Is generally sup posed that the Moores made some pledges to Harriman as to the relations with Mof fatt's line when completed, which had s great deal to do with the concessions ac quired by the Rock Island. In connection with the Moffatt line and Its relation to the Union Pacific, a report comes from authentic sources that the survey which is now being made from Grand En campment, Wyo.. to Hog Park, via South Fork, by the Union Pacific will not be stopped until the line reaches Steamboat Springs, where It Is proposed to make the connection of the Union Pacific branch and the Moffatt line. Such a route would af ford the Union Pacific a short line to Den ver, traversing a country rich In mineral deposits and covered with valuable timber. MeNallr Leaves and Bntler Comes. J. S.

FIERCE WORK OF MOUNT PELEE Professor Ilelnprln llencrloee the I.nst Eruption ot the Vol cano. FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, Satur day, Sept. 6. Prof. Angclo Holprln, presi dent of the Philadelphia Geographical so ciety, who Is In Martinique In the Interests of the National Geographical society, has made the following report of the recent eruptions of Mount Petee: "The scene of destruction in the last eruption of Mount Peloe far surpasses in extent that of the eruption of May 8, when St. Pierre was destroyed, and includes the broad area lying between Macouba and Bar bet, and Involves Haut Tours de Bourdon, Basse Polntc, Morne Balll and Ajupa Bouil lon, where upwards of 300 persons were killed, as well as Morne Rouge, with a death list of probably not less than 1,100 persons, Morne Capot and the heights somewhat this side of Fonds St. Denis, the blast, however, leaving the last place un touched. Great cinders fell over the region of Grand Rlvierre, and Le Precheur Is cov ered deep with, ashes. In Carbut the eahs lie a foot deep and nearly the same amount cover, the ruins of St. Pierre. The whole of Morne Rouge, with the exception of about four houses and the beautiful church, has been swept to the ground and the greater, part of the town has been burned up- . "The recent phenomena were precisely like those ot May 8, death resulting In most cases from contact with the terribly swift and hot blast, which burned and which suffocated. The sulphur emitted from the crater during the recent eruptions was com paratively insignificant, although it densely permeated the ash cloud which fell over Precheur. The electrical illumination dur ing the storm were wonderful and greatly surpassed those of July 9. "There was no barometerlc disturbance to Indicate a coming eruption. During the time I was on the volcano on the afternoon of the eruption Mount Pelee was In terrible activity and refuge from flying bombs bad to be sought in a hole. The great cone could not be seen. On the way down the mountain the party was enveloped in mud and ashes, the renter of ashes and steam clouds being almost vertically over us. "The destruction ot the several towns and localities was simultaneous, occurring st 9:10 In the evening. "There Is much uneasiness all over the Island of Martinique and this Is Intensified by the knowledge that La Soufrlere, on the island of St. Vincent, Is again in full activity. "The Illumination of the eruption on St. Vincent, as seen from here the night of Wednesday, was most terrifying, and on Thursday morning the ash cloud from the St. Vincent volcano carried darkness to Fort de France for a period of nearly six hours. No details of the casualties on St. Vincent have as yet been received here." Chun ore la Mall Schedule. LONDON. Sept. 12. After October 1 malls for White Star line steamers will not rarh Quecnstown until 10:15 a. m., Thursdsys, Instead of 7 a. m., as at present, thus con siderably delaying the departure of those vessels. The reason for the alteration in time Is the refusal of the White Star line to further co-operate with the general post office In accelerating the mall boat s rv ce from Euston station, London, to Dublin. The company has hitherto contributed 130. COO yearly toward the acceleration, but it now says It feels it is no part of Its duty to continue such sn outlay, and the post office therefore Is reverting to slower trains.
