CITY Fathers at Work.

For over three hours Monday evening
the city council wrestled with the prob
lens of city government, and at the hour
Of adjournment, long after the eleventh
hour, there were still one or two matters
which some Of the aldermen wished to
bring before the meeting, but were CON-
pelled to defer until the next session.
The city clerk reported that during the
past month he collected licenses for pub
lie resorts from seven places which were
named, and from J. T. Eager for a
plumbers license. in all amounting to
$3.50. and S223.25 turned into the city
treasury.
The sidewalk in front Of the Altschul
block was condemned and ordered
rebuilt at once.
Alderman Mitchell wanted and got 600
feet OF sidewalk on the west side OF sixth
avenue, from the north side Of Front
street to the south side OF Fourth street,
the first three hundred feet Of which is
to be eight feet wide and the remainder
five and oue.third feet in width.
The street and bridge committee also
took in hand the matter Of the washing
platform Ct H. B. Wood which Is IN front
OF tho lot owned by S. A. Sham, on Second
street. which Shain wished removed.
The same committee also took under
advisement the question Of repairing the
culvert located IN the eastern suburbs
OF the city in the bottom OF the coulee
on the road to Splr,twood station. The
culyert IS mile or more from the heart
OF the city. and to many ls believed tc

Two Guests of Summer.

A purple martin, the same kind OF
s'temple. haunting martlet' that Banquo
described before the castle OF Macbeth.
has built his nest in ''colgn of vantage
under the sign of the 'Altschul block, on
the top corner of the Capital hotel. Each
evening the pair Of martlns-for there
are two in the family at present-perch
upon the neighborng telephone wires
directly over the street sidewalk, utter
ipgta pleasant, hcmely refrain, nndonbt-
edly replete with swallow contentment.
The other guests of the hotel, sitting out
on the pavement in the cool OF the even
ing, are apparently regarded by the
birds as especial friends and protectors.
After futter,ng on and off the wires and
making great deal of noise for couple
of small birds, they disappear in their
castles seat just before dark, aud no
more is heard from them until daylight,
when the business Of the day is resumed
again.
Some naturalists say that the purple
mAfG1O SeleCLS MS WdCo UuI ouCc. ouu
retains her during life-a singular e1-
ception in the bird family. No bird
exhibits such confidence in man, and
peaceful enjoyment of his society. Two
broods season are raised, the first re-
naming under the parental roof tree until
all are ready to depart in the fall.
The martin ls most clever insect de-
stroyer, and his brilliant dashes into the
air after some luckless bug are worthy OF
an idlers observation.
After the first lot of young ones can t1y
they take care OF themselves, leaving
early in the morning and returning late
in the evening, when they drop into the
old homestead. after little circllng
around, with the precision of soldiers,
and soon the whole colony Is quiet for
the night. The birds return to the same
place each year, and not being proud,
are as truly thankful for an old tin can
or gourd, for house, rs the most costly
structure that can be made for them.

Drowned IN the River.

At noon Saturday the body Of Henry
Thompson, we'll known colored man
around the city, was found by boy, Geo.
Crops, floating face downward, with half
of the head above water, in sn arm Of the
river in the western part OF the city.
Thompson wac last seen Sunday night
and it is supposed that by some acci-
dental means he fell into the river whose
waters afterward carried mis- body to'the
place where found.
Upon the removal of the body from the
water by Coroner Thorold, there was but
little Of value found on his persona
black pipe, piece of comb, a pnrse with
quarter OF dollar in it, and other
small articles of little value. One shoe
and the part Of stocking was gone from
one foot. His hat was not found. The
body was but slightly bloated, although
it is supposed to have been in the water
for nearly five days.
For the past four or five years he has
been in this city and did house cleaning
and odd jobs. He had room on Front
street.
The body was taken in charge by Un-
dertaker Halstead and was buried at
the expense Of the county.
Thompson was we'll known character
Of this city for several years past, having
come here from Ft. Lincoln. He has
been IN this portion Of the northwest for
the past q years. it is said, and has
picked up livelihood at various odd
jobs. At Ft. Pierre. s. d., it is under
stood that he married q squaw, by whom
he had two children, all Of whom are now
living. He understood the Indian
language, speaking IL fiuently.

Board of Education.

The board Of education met Tuesday
evening for the last time, transacted the
usual amount Of business, and the new
board organized and committees we're
appointed for the ensuing year. There
was a full board present.
The teachers committee reported IN
regard to the vacancy IN the principal.
ship and recommended for the ensuing
year that Mrs. Sarah Jenkins OF Lincoln,
Nebraska, be employed. As an alternate
the name Of Miss Mary Axtell Of Miohl-
gan, was presented. No one has been
agreed upon for the position OF superin-
tendent. There are large number of
applications on file and it IS impossible
to act intelligently without more cores
pondence. Miss Axtell is a graduate Of
Kalamazoo College, Michigan, and has
taught five years in that state. She has
also been engaged in teaching ut Aber-
deem, s. D.. and at Anoka, Mimi, where
she was last employed. 1t was agreed
that the salary of the principal Of the
high school for the ensuing year be not
to exceed the sum OF $500 per month.
The subject OF commencement exer-
cises was discussed and the board re-
solved to expend 965, or 90 much thereof
- may be necessary, for the graduation
exercises. The admission fee was placed
at ton cents. Pupils Of the city schools,
and families Of the graduating class, will
be admitted free Of charge. No flowers
or presents of any kind will be admitted
to tho opera house for presentation upon
the stage during the exercises.
