year by electing Rev. Lewis Gregory presi-

NEW STREET RAILWAYS.
A number of new street railways were in
corporated a year ago, and a number of them
were pushed during the year in the work of
construction. The Rapid Transit was opened
for bushes in the fall, and the second Of the
new lines will soon be in operation. This
second line is known as the Capitol Heights
street railway, and two cars for service have
already been received by the company. This
line, that is constructed from the suburbs of
the city on the east will be connected with
the Lincoln street railway at Sixteenth and
X streets, to afford patrons a continuous line
to the business center. Cars have also been
received for the line from the terminus of
the Tenth street line to the asylum, and
much of the iron is laid, sothat the projectors
Of this road hope to open it at an early day.
POLICE NOTES.
The police court has fallen off in business
the past few days. Nothing in the way of
trouble has developed around the Burlington
depot, and the toughs that held sway there
have evidently moved to new fields. Yester-
day morning the Judge had a sorry specimen
of a drunkard. who after filling up the night
before had rolled in the mire and bore evil
dence of having been slugged while on his
drunken bout. He could give no explanation
of his actions and was fined and committed.
A man named Wainwright was arrested
to-day on the suspicion of beng q pickpocket.
Officer Bates has been transferred to the
day force and he will give his especial care
to making loafers move on.
PREMIUM LISTS.
The premium list of the coming state fair
in this city-September Z to l4-have been
received from the printer and the secretary
is now distributing them over the state. The
list Is in every way a creditable one and has
n great feature in that 1t is entirely shorn of
advertisements that have heretofore confused
and rendered life a burden TO the exhibitor
seeking information between the covers.
The premiums offered are even more abund-
ant than usual, and cover a range of topics
that it would seem could scarcely be enlarged
upon. The speed department has been COM
piled to make excellent entertainment on
every day of the fair and TO bring together
some of the best steppers in the west.
