Judge MeC!uer returned yesterday morn
ing from Dubuque, where he has been hav-
ing pleasant visit with his brother.
An abusive language case was before the
; municipal court yesterday, when the case was
dismissed, the defendant getting good lee
ture from Judge Netheway.
The total school attendance for the month
of November was 1,29S, and the average
daily attendance 1,175. The number of pu-
pills not absent nor tardy was $50. This is
good showing.
We are pleased TO hear that gentleman
in this city has just received check for
nice little sum. being the amount of a legacy
left by an aunt in the east. We would have
been pleased had the amount been larger.
The school flag at the Central school build
ing was hanging yesterday at half mast, and
was appropriately draped in black, as a tribute
OF respect to the memory Of Sammy Hersey,
who was general favorite among scholars
and teachers.
a beautiful floral tribute, consisting of
pillow of white flowers, bordered with tea
roses, with the initials s H. in delicate for
get-me-nots in the center, was sent to Mr..
Il. Hersey's Wednesday evening by Sammy's
Yesterday was q busy one at the court
house, as the war pensioners were out in
force having their applications forwarded to
headquarters, aud certificates made out that
they were still able To draw all the money
that Uncle Sam so grulingly gives them.
Company K is to make an effort TO raise
funds for ovcrcoats, as the state does not
supply any They have the fear of the winter
before them, and tue suffering they endured on
duty when the fire occurred at the prison last
winter, and do not wish to be caught in the
same fiz again.
DR.. Carroll having gone to Northfield, we
are unable to furnish any statement as to the
reported call to Congregational church in
Washington city. We would be exceedingly
sorry to lose DR.. Carroll from the city, as
he is a power for good. All denominations
would regret his departure.
Owing to the amount of work entaited by
the transfer of the cases against the Trans
fer company aud Car company an extra
force had to be put on by County Clerk Ben
nett, and will require some pretty large
boxes to take all the papers to st. Paul TO
the United States circuit court. The costs
viii be heavy.
Parson Talboy of the steamer Cleon, who
expected to take the road for the winter as
salesman ior w. S. Conrad, the tobaceonist,
has been sick all week and until he gets
fully restored will be unable to start He
left for his home in Osceola, Wis, for few
days. Fred will make a good salesman as
he is a thorough gentleman, and is accus-
toned 20 meet the public in pleasant man

lection.
Young Bantz, who was held to the district
court for having VIM. NJ. Capron's money in
his possession, exhibited during the trial tire
greatest nonehalance and appeared to think
that his having the money was all right. II
appears an effort is being made to get him
of, and for Mr. Capron not to appear against
him. II such is the case it is too bad that
the police force hIs to be nIle a catspaw
for the public, and might be said to deserve
censure for arresting criminals. The law
should take its course and have some light
punishment meted out to him.
The Relief society at its meeting Wcdnes-
day afternoon did considerable amount of
business, and stands in good shape, making
provisions for several of those they support.
One family has been struck off, as the mem
bers of it are able TO help themselves, but are
not inclined to work. Mr.. Foster, the treas
urer, will be pleased to receive any donations
either clothing, provisions or money, and
the committee will see that it is faithfully
applied. The objects are good, and it is
hoped that all who can will assist.
The district court will have business this
morning at 9 O'Clock. II would be well for
parties to attend better than they have been
do ng. as eveu the best natured judges will
show that fOrbearance will cease TO be a
virtue, and that when they go on the bench
they mean business. Some of the legal gen.
tlemen may awake some morning aud when
they arrive at the court may find the Ases in
which they are interested dismissed, as
judges time is fully rs valuable as that of
others. Should such be done. it will be found
that the dilly daily process in many cases
will be pushed TO a verdict, and not lost for
nOn-attentiOn.
As soon as Andrew. Peterson arrived at
the county jail yesterday he asked Deputy
Sheriff Adam Marty for some undercIothes,
as be claimed there were more inhabitants
at the city hall cells than were pleasant to
those who bad to lodge there over night.
Adam says he had enough to supply dozen
families, and the clothes were condemned to
the flames. We do not think the cells are
that bad, although the tramps and dodgers
they have had there looked as if they carried
full blOoded stock, and if each tenant left
only few, the supply must be heavy. The
cells should have a good cleaning out at the
city hall, and some bug exterminator .Hber-

The little excitement of the previous day
was cooled down yesterday in reference to
the change in the Car company matters, and
hopeful feeling has sprung up that work
will be driven for all that it is worth, as the
stockholders cannot afford to let so much
money be idle, and to pay per cent. busi-
ness will require to be larger than at any
previous time. The moving of the head Of
fee TO ST. Paul is viewed in a favorable light
by many, as it will put an end to the elamor
of having the works removed to St. Paul.
Most of the stock here is preferred stock and
comes under the per cent. arrangement
| and whatever there is of ordinary stock is
IN no worse position than formerly. Taken
all in all, the change is the best that could be
made under the crippled condition in which
the company was. The new concern will
have an unlimited supply of money, which
was the ouly thing required to tide the old
company over the hard times. We predict
time of prosperity for the city in the near
future should the present arrangem, Mt in
relation TO the Car company be carried out,
which We trust II will be.
Yesterday afternoon the mortal remains Of
Sammy Aersey were dep in the family
burying place in Lakeview cemetery. Every
