TiE OMAHATIDAsL Y BEE COUNCIL BLUFFS AND IOWA NEWS holds the bar fastening the door. This bolt bein : inken off, all the prisoners had to do was to pull the bolt out, loosen the bar and swing open the door leading to the outside world The monkey wrench was found in the yard, the unknown liberator having left it there after it had served his his purpose. Thero was also left a torn coat, which was recognized as be- longivg to a barber who has been lately locked up there for drunken- ness, The barber and his torn coat were [ sont out of jail the day before, and | the coat having thus mysteriously re- appeared led the officers to suspect that the barber was the outside friend who thus released the priscners, It further appeared that the coat and hat of one fellow, who was lying drunk in the calaboose, had been stolen, leading to the conclusion that the barber who had before insisted on the officers giving him a new coat to | replace the one torn by them in ar- resting him, had come back determin- | ed to get a better coat, even 1if he had to break into jail and steal one. There was only one important pris- oner who thus effected an escape, and he is supposed to be a long-sought and much wanted one. He was arrested here three or four days ago on a ae- scription and photograph, boing want- ed in several places for crooked work, and suppused to belong to a gang of thieves, He was noticed 1n this city, acted suspiciously, found to answer the description, was arrested, and gave so very unsatisfuceory accounts of him- self that it was determived to hold him here and investigate further. He had several aliases, one being Al Morris, another Kennedy, and the names of Frank Wood, Fleckhouse and Taylor were also used by him on different occasions. - He was wanted at Clinton for malicious mischief, at Des Moines for larceny, and at Omaha for breaking into freight cars. The chief of police has telegraphed to these places, and holding the bird in the meantime, Omaha promised to send over for the young man, but de- layed doing so, aud word came from the other places to hold the mau and they would see to him. Ifany of them had come promptly, they would have had the man, but delays are dangerous, and this one gave himtime to perfoct an escape. Tho officers will now have the delightful task of catch- ing him again, which will be no easy task, as the fellow has doubtless put a goodly distance betweon himself and the places that once knew him. It is thought that the barber who so kindly helped him to his freedom belonged to the same gang, and has gone with him. Oneof the prisoners, who also escaped, was in for being drunk, but he returned this morning, paid his fine, gathered up what effects had been taken from ?Iil pockets when ar- rested, and went forth square with justice. He was a resident of the city, and had no object in skipping save to be relieved from further con- finement until morning. B THEMODERN ROMEBANCER The Size of the Seven Hilled City in Southwestern Iowa. The Characteristics of Her Ancient Prototype Partly Imitated. Correspondence of THx B, Brancuarp, Pace County, To., February 18, 1882, —Two ur three years ago, when the Wabash railroad was constructed across the south- western part of Page county, new towns sprung up along the line, for there were mnone from Shenandoah, on the Hamburg & Red Oak branch of the Q" to Burlington Junction, on the Villisca branch of the esame road, and the most important of these young cities is Blanchard. Whether the town was located by chance, by railroad or other business interests, or by some ‘‘student in life's great school,” who, with visions of the Latin emporium before him, laid out the town as a seccnd Rome, we are informed, but certain it is that it bears, in many features, a resemblance to that seven-hilled metropolis, whose founder is reputed {o have been saved in infancy from a watery death in the Tiber, and suckled by a she wolf. Rome was said to have had only two streets for heavy wagons, as all the rest were unelaunm alleys, In the centre, on Capitol Hill, stood the Forum, chief trading house, the seat of justice, and we suppose, the print- ing house and postoftice, but entirely without lofty pinnacles and glittering spires which broak the outline of most modern cities; northward on Vatican hill, neioss the valley, are the elegant resi- dences of the noble families, the of- ficial dignitaries, the chief pontifl, the tomple of the gods, and the*‘basilica,” which may mean schoo! house, for most of the children seem to think it a bastile, while stretching away from the business centre to the river is the campus martius, or Plain of Mars, given over to thp amusements and sports of the people, the circus, the games, and, we suppose, the county fair, Here, as 1n that classical city, it was outside the walls, and, as the republic faded, and the advancement of the great city and people developed into an empire, the plain campus was decorated with buildings, so here we seo timber on the ground to fence in the trotting track, Rome in its in- fancy was composed of Latins and Sabines, the former were the stronger, and the latter were just as honorable. So here we have an Iowa village and @ Missouri settlement, together form- ing a city of perhaps six hun- dred, which is too active and ambitious to stay in one state, but tries to oceupy two. This, perhaps, and the advantage given to it by the stopping of some trains here which do not stop at some other small towns, may be the cause of envious nvalry, and is looked upon with Roman pride by the prosperous burgers on the state line, The large amount of freight bandled to and from this station and new buildings erected this season and 10 bo built this spring and swmmer tell, in no uncertain way, town is rapidly growii brick union school building, 86,000 or 88,000, is nearly ready for oceupation, and is a eredit to the peo- ple and an honor to the school - board as well as the school system of the state.

Osler, and Mr. Palmer, the lumber merchant, while the spring season will sec the foundation for a new Methodist chureh, and numerous other buildings now being looked for.

The two large elevators, a good bank, three farm implement houses, six or eight stores of general mer- chandise, two hardware, three drugs, fourof groceries, two hotels, churches, schools, lumber yards, livery stables, jewelry and furniture stores, several law, real estate and insurance firms, a half dozen good physicians, a wide- a-wake independent newspaper that reaches out for the job work as nat- urally as a Nebraska farmer does f(r Tue BEE, a good barber shop, black- smith shops, wagon and machine shop, harness shop, a good mill, brick yard, brass band, restaurants, shoe shops bank, fair aesociation with a guod track and a half dozen horses in training; the trades and professions well represented, good water within thirty feet, coal and stone conven- iently, good wood at $4 per cord,s rich soil and healthy climate,an industrious and intelllgent class of citizens, and business active and growing as shown by the banking business, all proclaim with no uncertain sound, that Blanch- ard is a good place fora happy home and has an enviable tuture, THr Bex reaches u largo portion of the busi- ness men and farmers, while the com- mercial agent usually asks for Tue Bek first in the hotels. The Com- mercial House has been open to the public, under the preseut manage- ment, less than one year, and yet has the satisfaction of being the home of the traveling man in the true sense of the word, and the young firm of R. M, Thomson & Co., which has just opened in the grocery business, offers to try the race in competition with the older houses, in a way that wins them plenty of friends. The Mason- 10 fraternity, Odd Fellows, and An- cient Order of United Workmen, are all well represented here, and include the larger portion of the business men, the Odd Fellows having a mem- bership of over seventy, with a good hall, while the boys have organized a rifle team which is expected tobecome renowned ‘‘before the ides of Novem- ver.” The town needs a good dentist and photographer, a creamery or cheese factory and manufactories.
