Deputy Marshal White arresting him
with three other boys for rowdyish CON
duct. Again he was let 60, promising to
behave himself and mind his mothers
wishes, but during the latter part Of
April his mother gave up the task of rul-
ing him and decided he must be sent 20
the reform school. He was arrested by
Officer Cusick and locked up in the Gala
boose, but while the officers were at din
ner he managed to crawl through the bars
of the transom over the door and
by u shrewd strategy explained his
presence in police headquarters to Mar
shall Jackson, so that he made good his
escape. Then he ran away to Chicago,
and the anxious mother has been able to
get any tidings of him, until now the news
comes of his death. The last sad tidings
are brief, being simply that he was hurt
in a circus there, and was taken to a
hospital where he died.

Our New Loan and Improvement Co.

Investigation into the matter COW inces
us that one of the most equitable, reason
able and feasible plans of building houses
is that proposed and in operation by the
Mercantile Loan, Trust and Improve
ment company of this city, BY invest
ing in shares in this institution, which is
backed by some of our best and most re-
liable business men, ii becomes possible
and comparatively easy for n man of
moderate means to secure n comfortable
home for himself and family. In taking
"A certain number of shares, at II certain
monthly payment, in IA few years a man
can own II house of his own for about the
same as he pays monthly for rent. We
believe the Mercantile Loan and Trust
company, by organizing and opening up
for business, have filed II long felt
want in Council Bluffs. Their plans and
system of loans will bear the most care
full scrutiny and examination, and we
have no hesitancy in p%ronouncing them
reasonable and equitable, and backed by
gentlemen of honor and integrity. AS
the company exists it becomes ut once an
institution of value and credit to our city
and those who desire homes. Their pres
ident is Il. A. Kirkland; vice president,
Judge Peake; secretary, l. Il. Beery;

The Eventful Life of IA Youth Ends
Most Sadly.

Many here remember a boy named
Julius Newman, whose mother is a most
worthy woman, and respected by all
those in this city who know her. julius
has proved a sad trial TO the widowed
mother, to whom he should have been a
support and comfort. He was only four
teen years of age, and yet he has caused
not only his mother and friends much
trouble, but he has been a great annoy
ance to the police. Last winter, in com
pany with another boy, he ran away to
Nebraska, and it was some time before
any tidings could be obtained of his
whereabouts. At last it was
learned that they were in jail
in Omaha. Released from there,

PROTECTION FROM FIRE.
The Citizens Need Not Now Get Panic
Stricken If the Alarm Sounds.

Since the washing away of bridges and
approaches to the creek by the food there
has been much doubt as to how the Res
cue engine could get across the creek, if
needed, and n still greater fear of the
lack of "A supply of water, of which there
isynone too much under the most favor
able circumstances, unless it be i'll times
of food. The fears about the stability of
the Market street bridge have now been
greatly allayed by the decision of Ray
mond Il Campbell that the bridge is as
safe for the engine to cross as it was be-
fore, SO that the steamer will be taken
over it rs of old when needed. A plat,
form has been built at Sixth street, SC
that the steamers can there get
at the water in the creek and
other needed steps will be taken to make
the fire protection better. The city has
delayed the matter much, and necdlessly
so, while other less important changes
have been made. The prospect of hay
ing a supply for the water works in the
near future has caused the city to post
pone action in some respects. The large
agricultural machinery houses, and Other
valuable property in the southern part Of
the city is, however, still unprotected, OIL
nearly SO, there being a scarcity of water
and noengines near there. While answer
ing to an alarm of fire the department
must take its apparatus over horrible
streets. More protection has been asked
for by these property owners time anC
time again, but they are told to wait un
til the water works are running,

An investigation revealed q systematic series o :,

From the Harrisburg penn. Telegraph June l6.
The English sparrows, which have been con-
demned in this state to determination, twitter
as necessarily as ever, and, notwithstanding the
law which permits persons to kill them by the
wholesale, there has been no general onslaught
made upon them. SIT is much easier" said q
scientist, who has assisted in the CT usade
against the sparrows, ''to make law than it is
to make away with the little pests There are
millions and millions Of them, and they multiply
so fast that it will require hard and unceasfng
fight to exterminate them. However, in con-
test between society and the sparrow, society,
backed by law, should certainly win" The
farmers, truckers and gardeners propose to
make an effective fight BY going at the root Of
the matter. They do not propose to waste
powder and shot on the bird midgets, because
that would be q tedious and uncertain way of
Kidding themselves of the pests. They propose
to destroy the nests and eggs at breeding time.
Cruel as this method may appear, it is said to
be really the only effective one.

The Etiquette Of Marriage.

From the New York Hour.
According to Honore de Balzac, only two
kinds of women are permitted to make advances
to men-to take that ''f1rst step" which, after
all, costs very little. The women specially ex-
cepted from the general rule are queens and ac-
tresses, and. with all due respect for the throne
and for the stage, it must be admitted that
members of these two privileged classes have, in
many cases, pr0fted largely by the per-
mission accorded to them. Queens and
Understanding, in the latter case,
queens of the theater, and not the whole
crowd Of women and girls who have entered
upon the dramatic career-are surrounded by
homage; so that what on the part of other
women would be active selection, is but passive
selection on theirs. They are in no way exposed
to the ignominy of rebuff. queen, more
ever, is strictly forbidden by etiquette to receive
all unbidden declaration of love- or spon-
taneOus invitation Of any kind. From dancing
partner to partner for life she must signify her
choice, As much cannot be said of the prima
donna or of the great tragic or comic actress.
But. whether it should be so or not the queens
of the stage, while exposed to at least as fierce
light as that which 'beats upon throne"
stand equally with the enthrOned ones above
the reach Of conventional etiquette.
