INSURANCE FEATURE IS DISCUSSED Matter Will Be Referred to Soboru Inate Lodges Before Gran Lodge , Aets on Incorporating lack a Featare. The Iowa grand lodge, Bon of Hermann, after a night of festivity, got down to serious business yesterday morning, when ths reports of the several officers were read and referred to the usual committees. These reports showed that the order was in a thriving condition and that' Over 400 mem bers had been admitted. ' dttrlng the last year and that the grand lodge treasury still, had a balance of $1,000 for Incidental expenses. The subordinate lodges take care of ths funeral and sick benefits of their members, thereby making ho drain on the grand lodge treasury. Ths principal question before the grand lodge yesterday was the advisability of In troducing an insurance feature In connec tion with the order In this state. At pres ent tb order of the Sons of Hermann la based very much on the same lines as the Odd Fellows. It pays a funeral benefit of $26 and sick benefit of 16 a week. The proposition to establish a life insurance feature In connection with the order, it la said. Is favored by a large number of the members of the grand lodge, but It Is doubtful if any definite action In the matter will be taken at this meeting. The question was thoroughly discussed yesterday at both the morning and afternoon sessions, but the grand lodge will obtain the sentiment of the subordinate lodges In the matter be fore taking any action. Grand President Lutse recommended sev eral unimportant changes In the constitu tion, which will be acted upon this morn ing. ' I Indications are that the present officers of the grand lodge will be accorded a unanimous re-election In recognition of the able manner In which they conducted the affairs of the order during the last two years. It la also understood that the bien nial meeting In 1905 will be held In Daven port, that city having no opposition. Both these questions will be settled at the meet ing this morning.. At the afternoon session a resolution of thanks to Mayor Morgan, the newspapers and members of the local lodge for the cor dial manner In which the grand lodge and visiting delegates had been received and en tertained was adopted. During ' the afternoon ths officer and delegate to the grand lodge were photo graphed In front of the county courthouse. Electric Fane. All sixes at New Tork Plumbing company. CITY ASKS AN INJUNCTION Difference of Opinion' Abont Existence - ' 'of Alley In Rear of Patrol ... Barn. , , The city .began proceedings Jn the .dis trict court yesterday to enjoin Harry Dye and Mrs. Mary Haines, his guardian, .from fencing ' In and otherwise obstructing an alleged alley In the rear of the patrol house on Brysnt street. Charles Crum. employed to erect the fence, was arrested on the charge of obstructing a public high way and resisting an officer. He gave bail for his appearance In police court. 'The property owned by Harry Dye, now an Inmate of the asylum at Clarlnda, was for a number of years until a few months ago occupied by the city for the use of the streets and alley and sewer departments. It lies directly north and west of the pa trol house.. An effort to sell the property to the city failed and- recently the . city gave up possession of It. A few days ago the, work of erecting a fence around the property was begun and the fence comi within a few feet of the rear door of the patrol house." Notice -was Served on the workmen by the city to, desist, but .they took, no notice of It. The city claims that an alley twelve feet wide at the rear of the patrol house ha existed for over twenty years, which Is denied by those acting for Dye. Although the city had failed to secure any temporary restraining order from the district court, Chief Tlbbits 'took the law into his own hands and caused the arre.t of Charlei Crum, employed by Mrs. Haines to con struct the fence. Crum dispute-! the au thority of the officer sent to arrest him and an additional charge of resisting an officer was placed against his name. Counsel for Mrs. Haines stated last even ing that the arrest of Crum would result In a suit for damages against the city, as It was entirely unauthorised and without warrant. For the owner of the property It Is contended that the mere fact of the city under Its - lease 'of the property, per mitting the public .to use It as an alley during the tenure of such lease, , did not make It a public highway. . .

MUCH DAMAGE DONE BY WIND Eleetrle Light Wires Dowi and the Carre at Tamed OS Early la Erealis, The windstorm did more or less damage in Council Bluffs last evening. The Citi zens' Gas and Electric company was badly crippled by having Its transmission wires blown down and as the service wires throughout the city were badly mixed up with the telephone and telegraph wires no attempt to turn on the current was made. The trouble. It is expected, will be rectified this morning. The transmission wires of the electric light company which convey the current from Omaha were blown down at Sixteenth and Twenty-third streets In the early part of the storm and people who depended on electric light were forced to use lamps. The city was also In darkness so far as the light towers and the Intersec tion arc lights were concerned. Big trees were blown down In all parts Of the city and bill boards suffered the same fate. A tree two feet In diameter was blown down In the yard of the Oscar Keellne home on South Seventh street, nar rowly missing the house In Its fall. An old tree, one of the city's landmarks, at the corner of Bryant and Vine streets, was torn up by Its roots and fell across the street. A tree on First avenue and Sixth avenue was blown down and across the street, as was one on Harmony street. A big plate glass window In the saloon at the corner of Broadway and Bryant street was blown In and several windows In the tipper stories of the Merrlam block were broken by the force of the gale. Several windows In the building occupied by W. A. Maurer on Broadway were also blown In. Reports from the patrolmen showed that bill boards In all parts of the city were blown down and In many places across the sidewalks. The Western Union reported more or less trouble with Its local wires, aa did the Postal Telegraph company. The telephone company did not escape, as Its wires were reported to be In a more or less confused condition all over town. The rainstorm Thursday night caused Indian creek to raise within a foot of Its banks and for a time an overflow seemed, Imminent. Shortly after midnight, how ever, the water commenced to recede and all danger of the creek breaking its banks was passed for the time being. The front of the brick building on South Main street and Seventh avenue, occupied by George Ouderkirk as a blacksmith shop, was blown out and across the street, Imped ing the street car traffic until the debris could be cleared front the tracks. .

The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is Syrup of Figs and for the aame reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup ,of Figs ia the only remedy which sets gently, plessantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartica and modern imitations, and against which the children should be ao carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but . also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous deal era sometimes offer to Increase their profits.
