"Bill" Barnum resident of this city
is now confined in the County Jail in
Sioux City awaiting trial on q charge
of assault with intent to rob.
"Bill" made his last appearance in
Missouri Valley q short time before

several other local characters of more
or less notoriety succeeded IN mulcting
the several candidates for sums of
money with the understanding "de

lected Barnum by some pretense sue
ceeded in gaining possession of the
larger portion of the funds which he
invested in wearing apparel Of an ex-
terror instead of an interior nature.
This aroused the ire of the other mem
bers of the party to such an extent
they proceeded to pummell William IN
the most approved manner. The next
day he disappeared and his re-appear-
ance in Sioux City is the first that has
been heard of him. The charges un-

What St. Paul Would Have Said.

Bloomfield, bishop of London, was
once asked to preside at a meeting of
the debating society Of a certain theo-
logical college, where the students
were all young men deadly in earnest.
One of these gentlemen in the course
of the debate, with strong indignation
evident in his voice, addressed the
chair, inquired, oratorically: what
sir, would the Apostle Paul have said
could he have seen the life of luxury
led by our present race of prelates and
church dignitaries, riding about in their
carriages and living in their palaces ?
What. sir, l repeat, would he have
said? 81 think" said the bishop, in
terrupting the speaker in a meek and
mild voice. that he would have said:
Things in the church must be looking
up! London st. James Budget.

Grants Show the Best.
The grand ball given In the north
wing of the treasury on the night of
Grants first Inauguration eclipsed all
affairs Of its kind up to that date.
Grants second inaugural ball. however,
held in a temporary building in Judi
ciasy Square, was even more note
worthy, not because Of its brilliancy,
or of the fact that tickets cost $50 each,
but on account Of a mere accident Of
weather. No provision had been made
for heating the building, and as the
thermometer that night fell to four de-
grees above zero, with a bowling gale
blowing, the dancers found themselves
in a pitiable plight. The ladies were
obliged to retain their wraps entire and
the gentlemen their hats and overcoats.
The supper, which was elaborate and
expensive. was a frigid repast. The
ornamental devices in Ice cream were
frozen doubly and the champagne and
punch were deserted for hot coffee
which was the only hot thing at the
supper. The dancers were literally
frozen out before midnight.

The longest inaugural address on rec

Socially the most important function
incident to an Inauguration of late
years IS the ball, which gives a sort of
finishing touch to the festivities of an
exciting day. All Of our twenty-eight
inaugurations in the past, beginning
with Washington's first, have had this
adjunct except seven. These were

After the election Of a President has
been officially declared the taking of
the oath of office is the only essential
thing required by the Constitution pre-
liminary to his entering upon his duties.
Around this essential act all the daz-
cling pageantry and elaborate ceremon-
les of modern inaugurations have been
built, not in pursuance of law, but Of
fashion, and custom. However grand
and interesting they may be, from a
legal standpoint these ceremonies are
all leather and prunella." The essen
tial thing, the oath, as prescribed by
the Constitution, is simplicity itself. 1t
is merely this:
81 do solemnly swear that will faith
fully execute the office of President of
the United States and will TO the best
of my ability preserve, project and de-
fend the Constitution Of the United
States"
This is the form used by all OF our
Presidents. Curiously enough, there Is
no rule determining whether the oath
or the inaugural address shall come
first. This is left to the fancy or the
taste Of tie individual. Some of oul
Presidents have preferred to take the
oath first, others last, and some have
tried it both ways on being afforded
an opportunity through a reelection

pretty much as Jefferson had been TO
the restoration of simplicity, cut out
the ball from the festivities attending
his Inauguration, although he incorpor-
ated a ball in the program for his sec
ond Inauguration. At Pierce's inaug-
uration the weather was execrable and
it appears that the ball was allowed to
lapse through the lack Of energy Of the
Inauguration managers. President and
Mrs. Hayes had strict ideas of their
own regarding their social obligations
and both were averse to dancing, as
well as to the use of wine at state din
ners. Accordingly the committee in
charge of Hayes Inauguration cut out
the ball.

President and his wife danced with evil
