This was the record yesterday for J. Brown, the mysterious stranger from Kan sas, who la filling an engagement hi Council Bluffs In the dual role of plaintiff and At torney for plaintiff. The fourteen original notices of Injunc tion suits filed yesterday with Sheriff Can ning by Mr. Brown are against H. - A.

With these the number of suits started by Brown to restrain the sale of liquor In saloons and other places now amounts to fifty-eight There are still about ten sa loons In the city, besides several la the county, awaiting the attention of the en: 5 sader from Kansas. The Iowa mulct law provides for an at torney fee of f?6 In each and every saloon Injunction case, and it was stated yesterday that some of the saloonmen on whom Brown had served notice of suit had grasped old Father Time by the forelock and hastened to settle with Attorney J. Brown on this basis, with something extra for costs thrown In. The names of the saloonmen alleged to have stepped up to the captaln's,Aesk and settled could not be learned yesterday. The attorney fees In the suits already commenced by Brown would, if all ' paid - In, amount to $1,460.

Last year a boy was drowned In the creek, which was the reason, for the board's order. The board Is now asking for an appropriation for a swimming pool. The committee recom mends the creek. ' The State Board of Control Is called down again In relation to an Incident at the School for the Deaf at Council Bluffa Some time ago the board discontinued the department Of domestic science, or cooking and sewing school, at the deaf school, and the visiting committee has reported that this was "extravagance In trying to be economical." The report recommends that this department be re-established as soon as possible, so that the young women who attend there may be able to learn some thing that will assist them In earning a living. The committee also recommends that the manual training department be placed in charge of some one competent to handle IV in all Its details. The committee also recommends that pupils who are county charges be permitted to remain at the school all the year. Appropriations ap proved ate WJ.800. Mora tow Soldiers' Home.
