Chicago Firm Proposes to Establish
Them In Council nIuns.


At the meeting of the city council next
Monday night a Chicago company will sub
NIT an ordinance granting 1t n franchise
to place iron boxes in the principal streets
as receptacles for waste paper and other
rubbish at present scattered about the
streets. The company in return for thus
helping TO keep tue streets in the business
portion Of the city clean will derive an in
come from advertising matter to be dis
played on the boxes. The city in return
for granting the franchise is to receive 10
per cent of the revenue derived by the COM
pany. The catch boxes, one of which is to
be placed at the corner or some other con-
venient place in each block, are to be made
OF iron, neatly painted, and will be twenty
two inches wide and three feet high. They
are to be made fast to the sidewalk. The
connany is to be responsible for the en-
plying Of the boxes at regular stated inter-
vals
The representative of the company was in
the city yesterday comforting with Mayor
Jennings and several of the aldermen and
they all think favorably of the proposition.
1t is not expected that there will be any
opposition to the ordinance and 1t will prob
ably be passed al the next meeting Monday
night.
throwing Of waste paper or other rubbish
in the streets, but the measure is not OBJ
served and no steps are taken as rule
to enforce 1t. The consequence Is that at
times the streets in the downtown part of
the city are literally strewed with paper
and other debris. The introduction Of the
catch boxes, 1t is believed, will remedy
this, especially IL merchants and others are
forced to place their rubbish in the recep-
tacles provided for that purpose.
Mayor Jennings is greatly in favor o.
granting the franchise and in discussing the
matter yesterday said: II am heartily il
favor of granting the franchise. The city
will be at no expense in the matter, but or
the other hand will derive a revenue from
these bosses. Even though 1t may not be Q
large one yet something will be bttter thar
nothing and anything that will tend to keer
the streets clean should be encouraged. The
same plan has been adopted in Davenport
with the difference that the city itself owns
the boxes and has to bear the expense OF
emptying them. OF course, there is no ad
vertisng matter on the boxes.

DECREE IN INJUNCTION SUI

DECREE IN INJUNCTION SUIT.
Is Less Favorable to Board of Educa-
tiOn Than the Ruling Wns.
The decree in the injunction suit of Slack
Peterson against the Independent School
District of Council Bluffs was received here
yesterday morning from Judge Green for
entry of record in the district court. The
decree is even more unfavorable to the
Board OF Education than was anticipated by
the ruling previously received. 1t orders
that a temporary restraining order issue
enioining the defendants from paying for
the site of the new High school building, or
any work done thereon until the determina-
tion of the appeal now pending before the
Hon. H. w Sawyer, county superintendent
OF Pottawattamie county Iowa, and for
thirty days thereafter; and in case of appeal
from his decision within ten days from the
rendition thereof to the state superintend-
ent of public instruction, until the said ap-
peal will have been finally determined"
The law provides that either party dissatis-
fed with the ruling of the county superin-
tendent has thirty days in which to appeal
TO the state superintendent, but by Judge
Green's ruling the injunction only holds
good till the matter is finally disposed of
by the state superintendent II the plaintiff
appeals within ten days after the county
superintendent shall have rendered his de-
cision. The attorneys in the case are some
what at a loss to fully understand the
meaning of the order. as it will be seen
that in one place Judge Green says the
injunction shall remain in force for thirty
days after the county superintendent shall
have rendered his decision, and in the very
next line says in case of an appeal from
the county superintendent's decision within
ten days from the rendition thereof the in
junction shall remain in force until the
matter is decided by the state superntend-
ent.
In conformity with the ruling the decree
dissolyes the injunction restraining the
hoard from paying for the site out OF the
school house fund. 1t also gives the board
permission to move for an additional cost
bond as soon as the sale of the bonds is
completed, This, President Sims of the
board said yesterday, would be done, the
very moment the sale of the bonds is COM
pleted. The board will apply for order
requiring the plaintiff to put up bond in
good-sized amount so that in the event OF
the board winning the case 1t may have
something TO fall back upon to recoup II
for the expense II has been put to by the

Drunk But Still a Gentleman.

The coach was crowded, not seat

women and one old lady were stand
ing. The man with the new brown
suit and the dinged derby which had
come in contact with low bridge or
some kind of an obstruction, had i'm
bibed too much and was disposed to
wobble in his seat. The three dudes
with swell suits, big headed canes and
loud neckties sat and giggled like
monkeys and made joking remarks
about the man who had taken too much.
Finely the latter gentleman looked up
and saw the old lady standing. He
got up instantly, lifted the dinged
derby, bowed politely, and said in a
kind voice. "Here, mother, take this
seat" Then the well dressed man

Lots of men travel on their mouth
singing, or talking, or blowing, but it
remained for a young darkey who
visited this town, to use his mouth tor
a different purpose. Instead of storing
music and oratory in it he made it a
cold storage for billiard balls, pie
plates, etc. 1t is a tough story to put
in print, but it is a solemn fact, wit
messed by dozens of people here, that

away four full-sized pool balls at one
time in his mouth and closed over
them so as to shut them out from view.
He also took a small platter like they
bring beefsteak to you on at a hotel,
and slid it clean out of sight in the
cavern he calls a mouth. He must
have swallowed beer keg before he
got through, for it became necessary
to lock him in the cooler. A close
watch was kept however, for fear he
might swallow the lookup and escape.
