~ ROSES.
BY CARRIE L POST.
To the roses must sing
Rhythmic song this balmy spring.
Velvet, crimson, pearly white,
Richest cream and yellow bright
Rainbows mingled, one would think,
In cameo hueS with ttnge OF plnR
Naught so beautiful in bloom,
Or exquisite in perfume;
Petals, delicate and fair.
Each arranged in finest care:
And to add another grace,
Moss trails round the rosy face.
Purest odors, heaven-born,
Charms our sense in early morn
Like rare spices of Araby
Waited from each blooming spray,
All their Queenly cenSers fnll,
Waken thought that's worshipful.
Miracles, with grace replete,
And by touch divine made sweet,
Teach US how to gather up
Into life'S o'erflowing cup
Gifts and graces which adorn,
Leaving out the briar and thorn.
V.
Friends pluck roses for friend
Words and perfume sweetly blend,
Lovers oft their thoughts confide
And within the petals hide
Sentiment, or sacred word
Only by the roses heard.
W.
Who loves true and who loves well
Let their silent language tell;
When his sweetheart keeps his rose
By this sign he thinks he knows
That she loves both gift and giyer
And his Rose is she-forever
For what mission are they here
Funeral gloom or wedding cheer?
For the bride OF life or death
Do they scatter fragrant BREATH
Brightest yisitantS they are
Welcome alwayS-everywhere.
Christ our Rose OF Sharon" fair,
Glorious is beyond compare,
LovelieSt virtues we may find
Evermore in Him combined
Types OF Him bloom roses grand
In pure hearts and DER our land.

SOM Animsttd TAX Over Aid
Adams Re -ignatfan ana the
Pun chase ofthe New Wat
erwOrks Pump

The city council held another animated
session last evening which at times
brought forth some lively controversies
between the aldermen.
Aid. Corken began by speaking of the
feeling that existed outside the council in
regard to that body's action iu relation to
ex~A'd Adams resignation. ard as In
his opinion the council had not intended
TO inJure anyone, he moved to recon ider
the action in regard to it. The meyor
then suggested that the alderman make
his motion ito expunge from the record"
as the time for reconsideration should
have been at the previous meeting. Aid.
Corken then moved that the action taken
in regard to Aid Adams resignation be
stricken from the record. Aid. Huesing
objected on the grounds that AS the min
utes of the previous meeting had been
approved it Was too late, and hat it could
not be stricken from the record.
The mayor was inclined 10 take the
same view of it. and he accordingly ruled
Aid C"rkep's motion out Of order That
gentleman then sppesled from the chsir's
decision and Aid Knox was first called to
the chair. and as the latter wished to
speak on the subject Aid. Evans was
called. and after some further discussion
Aid. Kennedy moved that the chair be
sustained. and on call of the yeas and
nays it was carried by vote of to 8.
Aid. Huesipg then secured the floor and
raised an objection to the manner in which
the contract had been let for the new
pump at the waterworks, claiming that it
was illegal and that the council had not
gone about 1t in the right manner. He
based his objections on legal advice which
he had obtained which was to the effect
that the city council could not legally
contract debt for which no provision
had been made in the annual appro-
pristions. He then moved that the city at
tcrney be heard on the question, and this
being carried. City Attorney Haas said he
haA hOI TUG Chst lUOEOuUnlY IN
all its bearings, and aided that he did
not wish 10 be put on examination by the
alderman who had gone outside the city
attorney for legal advice, whereupon
Aid. Huesing said that he would with>
draw bis motion to hear the city sttor-
ney, but Acting Mayor Evans ordered
that gentleman to proceed and he accord.
InglS gave his opinion. which was to the
effect that the city by virtue of an &C,
provided for cases OF emergency might
contract an Indebtedness if it was for the
public welfare and protection of its citi>
zens. the act cited being particularly in
relation to waterworks.
After some further discussion on the
same subject the council adjourned.

Police Points.

The case of Philip Buckley. of Joslin,
charged with assault with intent to do
great bodily injury on the person of
Thomas Fitzpatrick, came up before
Magistrate Wivili this morning and was
discussed on a technicality in the papers.
This afternoon. however, the charges of
assault with deadly weapon were made,
one alleged TO have been made with a
club and the other with a knife. The
cases are being tried today and large
number of witnesses are present from the
locality where the trouble occurred.
Adair Peasants and G. j. Searle repre-
sent the prosecution, and McEniry s. Nc.
Eairy the defense.
Andy Clifford, one of Rock Island COL
ored citizens, got on a bender in Musca-
tine one night last week and turned up at
the police station next day with his
pockets full ofJewelry, and was wearing a
new overcoat. Not being able to account
for his sudden prosperity he was locked
up in the county Jail and Maj. Besrdsley
left for that place last night to defend
Andy, whose hearing comes off today.
William Lindberg was out yesterday
for time, and after loading himself up
with fighting whisky went out to look
for trouble. and shortly afterward found
what he was looking for in saloon on
Eighteenth street, where he got gay and
was called down by the bartender, who
threw him out on his face on the side
walk. He then swore out a warrant for
John Ness, the bartender, and Magistrate
Wivill fiaed him S. and costs, aad also
on complaint of Ness fined Lindberg SIS
and costs also, for abusive language.
William Smith. Elmer Swanson and
John O'Connor, of Carbon Cliff, were
each fined $40 and costs by Magistrate
Wivill on warrant sworn out by c. NJ.
johnson, charging them with disorderly
conduct on Halloween. They paid the
costs and the magistrate suspended the
fines during good behavior.
Mayor McConochie has given notice to
the saloon keepers who have been in the
habit OF running their places on the or
der Of concert saloons. that unless they
desist and aim to conduct their places in
little quieter way, they may not be al
lowed to continue.
1t was expected that q Moline gentle-
man Of color would be tried before JUS
tice Cooke today as an impostor, and all
the colored citizens in the twin.cities
with little exception, were consequently on
hand to see the fun, but up to o'clock
this afternoon no trial had been held.
Olof Lorenzen and Charles Biorklund
were each fined $5 and costs for indulg-
ing in fistic encounter at noon today.
