unexecuted and they will probably recon-
mend in their report TO the council that
steps at once be taken to carry these pro-
visions of these ordinances into immediate
effect.
Officer bunker yesterday swore out
warrant against Patrick Welsh for keeping
disorderly house uptown on Commercial
avenue. But the evidence developed the
fact that Patrick was not running the house
and hence Magistrate Comings discharged
him. There was ample proof, however,
that the man who does run the house Is la
BILE to prosecution under the ordinances.
On the list of July Mr.. John Keohler,
Jr., will take partnership interest in the
shoe store of Mr.. Henry Block, on Com
mercial avenue. Mr.. Koehler is a young
man of considerable business experience,
popular as salesman with the trading
public of the city, and in every other way
an estimable young man. Mr.. Block has
been very successful In the past, the new
| firm will be more so.
Mr.. Thomas P. S. Horne expects to
leave for the far west on or about the 1st of
July. He will 60 on prospecting tour,
with view to locating somewhere in bust
ness for himself. During Mr.. Hornes many
years Of engagement in business here, he
proved himself to be possessed of the ele-
ments necessary to success and of qualities
that render him entirely worthy of it. So
ciety here will regret his departure.
"A young fellow named Harris, who was
IN this city some time ago circulating coun-
terfeit ten.dollar notes, with which he
Caught" several of our merchants, was
sentenced to three years in the penitentiary
by the supreme court at Springfield We'd
nesday. Mr.. Jno. Marx, one of the VIC
tins and salesman for Mr.. A. Marx, return
ed yesterday from Springfield to where he
had been summoned to appear against the
young criminal.
"A force of government surveyors have
been at work at and around Birds Point
for week or ten days, laying out the line
for government levee. II is said they
are to estimate the cost of an embankment
reaching from Commerce, Mo, to point in
Arkansas opposite Memphis. The MsSis-
sippi river commission has the matter in
charge; the work will probably be done
gradually, merely to aid the natural forces
of the river in deepening the channel.
The air was rather cold for the lawn
sociable of the Presbyterian ladies at the
residence of Mr.. j. B. Reed last night, but
there was large attendance and the time
was spent in manner usual to occasions of
social intercourse. Mr.. and Mrs. Reed, and
ladies in charge, succeeded admirably in
making the time fly pleasantly for all.
Music by Prof. Storer's band was an impor-
tant feature Of the entertainment. A
handsome sum must have been realized.
Col. Joseph Kingston, wealthy
bachelor of Greenvile, Ills, is in the city
on his way to st. Louis. The Colonel has
spent several months travelling through
Kentucky and the south, and being gen.
tleman of leisure free from the cares of bus
mess, will probably spend the summer
reviewing the great west. On bis way from
Kentucky he spent several days at Dixon
Springs and will remain in Cairo for
short visit to his neice, Mrs. Burnett.
The sale of the saloon fixtures of the
establishment until recently run by Mr.,
Jno. Bowers, under mortgage held by
Mr.. Louis Herbert, took place yesterday
forenoon. Since then several persons have
applied for the place to reopen the saloon
and it is likely that, before long, an encr-
getic man will have the place in full blast
again And this will doubtless be before
the lst of July, too, in order to obtain the
license under the old rate, before the Har-
per bill goes into effect.
The executive committee of the South
