Matched

The manage of the Council Bluffs
club is very strongly imbued with
the idea that his team IL play ball,
and County Clerk ]. j. Shea is as firmly
convinced that he cal pick up a nine
here in the city which can wipe up the
earth with them, liguratively speaking,
and yesterday expressed himself in that
manner in the presence of Manager
Rudio. After INDUCING in a hearty
game of bluff for q while. both parties
went down in their pockets and took al
account of stock.
The result was that a match was made.
Shea is to pick Il nine, all of whom live
in the city, and Rudio is to play the
regular team with the exception of the
battery. The game is to be played
within ten days. Manager George now
has $40 up on his crack nine, and if
they fail to win this game and the one
hat is to be playedf tomorrow with the
Maynes, there will be one very sick
man in town, and parties who want to
hear IA "holler"5 need only visit the
corner of Broadway and Main.

The Electric Motor.

All of the electric motors and other
electric appliances for the motor line
between this city and Omaha have been
purchased, and the ties and rails are on
the ground, SO that it will be but Il very
short time to get the line in running
order, when the bridge is ready to open.
There will be a double rack up Avenue
4 and Broadway from the river to the
Methodist church. The point of cross
ing from Avenue A to Broadway has
not yet been determined, but will be
between Sixteenth street and Indian
creek. 1t will require twelve trains to
equip the line. They will run every
ten minutes during the day and even
ing. A tive-minute service will be run
two hours at morning, oOn and night.
Cars will run at the rate of fifteen miles
per hour. The power station will be
located near the waterworks IN lower
Broadway. The bridge will be lighted
by electricity, furnished by "a dynamo at
the bridge company's power station.
The work is now progressing at a lively
rate in all departments, since a double
force has been put TO work on the piers,
and everything looks favorable for a
grand opening about October l.

Travellers! Stop at the Bechtele.
The Innocent Patrolmen.

One of the city papers criticises Chief
Lucas and the police force for allowing
street walkers to promenade the streets.
The police have strict orders to
promptly arrest any characters who are
known to be street walkers, Or are ply
ing their vocation in any of the public
places Of the city. 1t is impossible for
the police to know personally all Of this
class who frequent the streets, and in
the absence of quite positive proof an
arrest might make serious trouble.
There are many eminently respectable
young ladies in the city who sometimes
go out during the early evening in a
group by themselves for O little limo
cent amusement, and if they happen to
laugh louder than IL exactly proper u
would create a terrible muss for a police
man TO tell them to 60 home or he
would lock. them up. Chief Lucas ex-
presses himself in this manner: 81
would rather have a hundred Of these
characters pass unmolested than have
n respectable 0ma insulted by one

Reneht Day For Manawa.

The outlook for Manawa is encour-
aging. The committee which was APP
pointed to solicit money to be used IN
improving the lake is meeting with the
most gratifying success. They nave
already secured $500, and there is still
more to follow. Next Saturday, m
week from to-day, will be ''beneiit day."
when the motor line, steamboats,, bath
houses, hotel, Athletic park, ETC., will
give all receipts to the committee, for
the purpose above named. The day
will be a great one for the lake, and
an interesting programme is being pre-
pared.
There will be a ball game at the park,
bathing and sailing on the lake as
usual, a shell race between Council
Bluffs and Omaha tours, the second
yacht race for the Manawa cup, and
dancing at the hotel in the evening.
Tickets will be on sale all of the coming
week in various parts of the city for s.
each. These tickets will be good for
everything at the lake-motor line,
steamers, park, bathing, dancing, etc.
1t will be a grand day, and everybody
is invited and requested to go to the
lake on that day.
The attractions offered are we'll worth
the money, and it will help out those
who are endeavOring to build up the
lake. 1t is expected to sell 1000
tickets in this city and Omaha, anG
thus raise 81, 1000. This, with what will
be otherwise secured, will put the lake
in splendid shape, and assure plenty of
water in the future. Make arrange.
ments to attend, everybody, and have a
grand, good time.

A Bold Robbery,

One of the most daring robberies that
has been perpetrated in this city for
some time took place last evening on
the outgoing passenger train on the
Northwestern at a point between the
transfer and the local depot. The vic
tim, whose name was not learned, came
over from Omaha on the 6:35 dummy to
the transfer. She made the %acquaint-
ance of an Obliging stranger on the
checked on reaching the trans
fer. She vas going to River
Sioux, and they boarded the
Northwestern train together and occu-
pied the same seat. The first intima-
ton that anything was wrong was when
the train reached the turn near the
corner of Tenth avenue and Eleventh
street, when the man started up and the
woman exclaimed: "'That man has
robbed me-" Notwithstanding this,
the passengers allowed the fellow to
walk down the aisle and out of the
coach, when he jumped from the plat
form and disappeared. The brakeman
stxrted in close pursuit, but lost sight
of the nan in the dense growth of weeds
along Indian creek.
The woman's pocketbook, containing
$35 and two baggage checks, was stolen.
AS soon as the local depot was reached
the police were notified, and Captain
Dyer made a hasty trip to the transfer
in time to catch the w~estbound dummy,
but the thief was not aboard, He did
not seem to be at all hurried as he left the
coach, and for this reason the passen-
gers were not sure that he was the
thief. His admirable nerve carried

them to do they were released.

had his case continued until this morn
ing. Attorney Hight will appear for
him.
Mrs. Boyle was brought IN again for
disturbing the peace on a charge pre-

her. She was again found guilty, but
sentence was suspended as before.

Omaha daily bee., 1888-07-28

1t seems strange that a city of the
size of Council Bluffs should have no
system Of scavenger work or garbage
gathering. 1t is a general go-as-you-
please, and usually is no &c at all. All
sorts of stuff is thrown in the alleys or
vacant lots, and there allowed to re-
main and send forth unsavory odors. If
n wants to have garbage removed,
there is no provision made for doing so.
There is no system, no public wagons
and no place of deposit. The city re-
quires a man to remove garbage and
filth, but affords no means of his doing
so, even if he is ready and willing to
bear the expense. 1t has no licensed
scavenger and 10 place of deposit.
Another serious cause of complaint is
the presence of numerous outhouses in
the very heart Of the city. There are
sewers and an abundance of water, so
that closets can be provided in all the
business blocks without any trouble.
Property owners prefer to retain old
outhouses rather than go to the expense
Of adopting the more modern conven.
fences, and the city allows them to thus
remain. They are among the worst of
the summer ~nuisances, and ought not to
be tolerated for ten days. An ordinance
should be passed if necessary, and if not
proceedings should be started to sum-
marily end these complaints.
