AT Police Court.

Judge Aylesworth had his hands full
in police court yesterday morning. G.
Ii. Best. Dan Lawler and Samuel Lar
rison were each invited to drop SIS. 10
into the collection box.
George Harris was booked as a vag,
but was held over as suspicious char
acter. He had seven gold pencils in his
possession, and the chief of police said
he knew where he had disposed of two
more. He could not explain satisfac-
torily how they came into his possess
sion, and will be held few days until
the police can find out where they were
stolen.
Jessie Miller was the next victim, and
she was charged with keeping a disOr-
derly house on Vine street. She was
not ready for trial, and put up $25 for
her appearance this morning. A group
of five was then arraigned before his
honor. Mrs: II. Boyle was
charged with assault, and the
other four, Chris. Johnson, Chris. Mil
Ter, II. Custer and M. Gray was charged
with disturbing the peace. The facts
that led to their arrest were told sub
| stantially as follows: Mrs. Boyle lives
| on Pearl street, and in going to
| the grocery store where she does
her trading is compelled to pass
| the Main street boarding house, where
the other four defendants eat, sleep. and
have their being. She states that on
several occasions she has been insulted
| by them, and finally determined to pro-
tcct herself. Accordingly, when she
went to the store Saturday evening she
took along a number of loud smelling
| eggs. She was saluted in an insulting
manner, and then let fly with the eggs,
One of them hit Johnson, and he had
the thrower arrested for an assault.
Mrs. Boyle was found guilty, but SEN
| tence was suspended.
johnson was fined $3.50, but took ex-
ception to the decision of the court. and
announced his intention OF appealing
the case TO the district court. In that
event it will cost him 800 to get rid of
paying fine of $500, and the chances
are greatly in favor of his having to
pay it anyway, Mrs. Boyle went on
her way rejoicing. Johnson's three
partners in misery were discharged.

The city directory just issued for
Council Bluffs by d. c. Dunbar & Co.,
of Omaha, is causing good deal of
complaint. AS it is being used, or
rather attempts are made to use it, its
utter failure to meet the needs becomes
more and more apparent. Typograph-
ically the volume is attractive enough,
but this is not what is so much de-
sired in city directory as utility. An
inspection of its pages reveals the fact
that there are hundreds of names
omitted. Among these omissions are
many of the oldest and most prominent
citizens. Even the name of Mart Har-
din, who carries a gold-headed cane, as
being the Oldest citizen, is not to be
found in its pages He is known to al
most every man, woman and child in
the city. occupies an office at the court

\ Horse Thief Taken.

About two months ago George Wes-
ner, the liveryman on Lower Broadway,
let one oil his livery rigs to "A fellow for
a few hours drive and has not seen the
horse since. a few days ago Captain
Nick O'Brien, of the merchants police,
left the city on detective business.
Yesterday II letter was received from
him, stating that he had the thief
under arrest at Lincoln, Neb., but he
refused to come back without requisi-
tion papers. Colonel Daley imme-
diately sent to Des Moines for the nee
essary papers, and they will be for
warded to O'Brien at Lincoln. The
case was worked up with considerable
skill, and Captain O'Brien is entitled to
credit for the successful manner in
which he run his man to earth. He
will probably be back here with his
man about the latter part of the week.

The Merriam Block.

Contractors have been examining
with interest the plans of the new
Merriam block, and preparing their
figures, the bids to be handed in to-day.
The plans show that the block is to be a
very handsome one in external appear
ance, as we'll as capacious and conven-
lent in its arrangement. There will be
eight stores running through from
Main to Pearl street. The second floor
will be divided into Offices. and the third
floor has, besides Offices. IA large room
for the public library and a spacious
hall to be used by the Y. NJ. G. A. or
other organizations. The Pearl street
front is to be exactly like the Mann
street front. There will be two
main entrances on each street. There
are to be numerous bay windows and
adOrnments, which will make the front
ages very attractive. The Willow ave-
nue. front is also very attractive. At
each corner of Willow avenue will pe
stairways leading into the basement,
where there will also be two good store
rooms.
Itis expected that whoever gets the
contract will crowd the building to an
early compile zion. The improvement
will be a marked one. and the block
will be readily occupied at IA fair rental.
The stores will be 100 feet with fine
frontage on each street, and the Offices
there will be the most desirable in the
city.

by any canvasscr for a directory. lie
has plenty OF company OI all
classes. Rev. DIR. trofts, pastor Of
the Congregational church. .and sam
Ford are among the neglected ones.
The list of well known citizens is, in
fact, almost long enough to make an
other directory. Even Mayor Rohrer
has not his name correctly given.
Among the many familiar names omit
ted are those of Phil Armour. B. j.
Austin. f.. \. Avery. John n. Baldwin,
DR.. j. NJ. Barstow, Peter Bechtele. DR..

Gilmore, G. Y. Hcrster, G.. A. Holmes,
Lawrence Holst-aud so on and on, the
the instances might be cited whore
men. we'll known throughout the city,
are entirely overlooked.
Naturally this makes the directory OF
no use, as it is more unreliable than
the old one. 1t is also found to be full
of the sins of commission as well as sins
of omission. 1t seems to have been
the policy of the publishers to term
every man laborcr whose occupation
was not in the copy. Justice Hen
bricks is thus made out to be II laborer.
j. w. Grassland, the insurance man,
likewise. w. w. Chapman is set down
as a photographers.
Initials are wrong and names mis-
spelled. j. A. Churchill's 5 name appears
as -. r." and 5. Farnsworth as A.
Farnsworth, J. Dictey as |. Dickcy. In
fact. whatever page is looked over mis-
takes and omissions are noticeable.
Council Bluffs needs IA new directory
needs it badly. There have been
many changes in the past year. and
when such carclessness is shown in re-
| gard to the old settlers there is little
| reason to believe that many of these
| changes have been noted in the last
| directory. 1t does not show up properly
| the population Of Council Bluffs. In its
| introduction it states that the volume
| contained 7.463 names, an increase OF
nearly 1000. and indicating a popula-
tion of 10000. If this be so. with all
| these omissions, the number of inhabi-
! tants would show up still larger by hay
| ing Il correct directory.
1t seems that the publishers of this
so-called directory should revise it and
| get out another worthy OF the name and
| take up the copies now out. Unless
| some such atonement is made it will be
| difficult for this firm TO ever get any
| support here for another Council Bluffs
| directory.

Resolved. That in the opinion of this
body the expenses of the Parishes of the
State could be materially reduced with
out detriment to the public interest by
increasing the criminal Jurisdiction of
Magistrates and by laws compelling par
ties sentenced to pay a fine or remain
such time iu Jail, to labor on the roads
during the time of their confinement
as IN that want many would pay the fine
rather than suffer the imprisonment.
And our Representatives in the Gener.

having such legislation passed.

transact the meeting was adjourned.

success it will be.
Hon. John NJ. Avery of Iberia is the

will give him Z hearty support.
