MATTERS IN THE DISTRICT COURT
Father Asks Title to Lot Be Qaleted
Against Absnt Son.
That George Allen, son of John Allen,
a former resident of Council Bluffs, now
living In Minneapolis, has not been heard
from in eleven years Is disclosed In a suit
brought by the father In the district court
here to quiet his title to three lots In this
city. George Allen, the missing son. Is
named as defendant. ' ,
In his petition the father states that the
title to the property mentioned 'was held
by his son, although he was the real owner.
In 1898 George Allen went west to secure
employment. He did not return and the
family for eleven years has been unable
to secure -any face of him. At the time
the son went west the family resided in
Council Bluffs. The petition asserts that
the absence of the son for so long a pe
riod -Creates the legal presumption that he
is dead and the father declares his belief
that his son died unmarried.
Mrs. Emma Jenson filed suit for divorce
from'Chils Jenson, to whom she was mar

Council Bluffs
ERPETUAT1XG GREAT NAMES
Iowa
Members of the city council saw an
opportunity yesterday afternoon to have
their names handed down to posterity
and some of them, fearing that opportu
nity might not knock again at their door,
grasped it with both hands. This op
portunity arrived when an ordinance
changing the present names 6f several
streets and avenues waa brought be
fore the council. Trouble has frequently
arisen In the past from the fact that
more than one street or avenue bore the
same name.
The ordinance passed Jniler suspension
of the rules yesterday afternoon Is In
tended to remedy this trouble and Coun
cilmen Olson, Morgan and Younkerman
succeeded In having streets named after
them. A. W. Casady, city clerk, was
not to be lost In the shuffle and one of
the streets Was renamed after him. Jerry
Walter, for several years a member of
the city engineer's force, also succeeded
In having a street renamed after him.
Millard Fillmore Rohrer, who was
mayor of Council Bluffs for two terms,
was honored by the council. Owing to
the fact that there is already a Rohrer
avenue, it was not practicable to call
another street by this name, so one of the
streets renamed will henceforth be
known as Fillmore street. Mr. Rohrer,
to show his appreciation of the honor
conferred upon him, has arranged to en
tertain the members of the city council
and representatives of the several news
papers at dinner at the Grand hotel this
evening.
What Streets Are Changed.

ernoon changes the names of the follow
ing thoroughfares:

mony street, changed to Babbit avenue.

Iowa postmasters went on record today
as favoring the postal savings bank, de
cided to meet In Fort Dodge next year
and listened to Postmaster J. Robertson of
Fort Dodge take a rap at the civil serv
ice. In which he claimed It was respon
sible for postmasters not getting better
clerks. Senator Dolliver was unable to be
present to speak. Several postmasters
claim the only reason the convention went
to Fort Dodge Is the failure of any one
from Des Moines to appear and give an
Invitation to stay here. Several were se
vere on the local business men for negli
gence of the convention.
In an opinion given to the directors of

He took with him 8M0 worth of gold and

stolen property Is shipped to some central
