A Thriving City on the Wabash Road a Short Listance in Iowa. Correepondence of Tir Brw. IsoceNE, Ta.,, April 5 young city was born two or three This active years ago, when the Wabash railroad commenced to break ground here, by the organization of a town lot com- pany. The company was largely com- posed of railrond officials, who desired to secure the people who wished to sottle here and start in business by offering them inducements of an or- ganized village, and the settlement was named after the twelve year old daughter of Col. Anderson, now of Blanchard, who was then agent for the “Town Lot company,” which was called the ‘‘Western Improvement company.” THE TOWN ’ is located just above the first bottom lands, along the slopes and on the table land, by the side of Hunter's branch, which is one of the tributar- ies to Walnut creek, and is in the north corner of Fremont county, forty miles from Council Bluffs, houses going up this spring, a lawyer on his way to ‘‘get satisfaction,’ good mill powers, good schools, good churches and good eitizens, who are all friends to Tue Dee.

Atrastic, Ta, April 4. —“Better late than never 'is anold and familiar adage, and will especially apply. to your correspondent here, Our city is just now experiencing New residences of quite & boom. EE: FRIDAY. APRIL 7 188.. substantial and, in many instances, expensive character are being built by the hundreds: business blocks will be erected thisgear upon nearly all of the now vacant business lots; the court house will be finished; a distill- ery and canning factory, both nowv under way, will be completed aud our creamery put into operation. All these improvements are building up our city at a rapid rate, and are inducing hundreds of men with thousands of money to find homes and investments here. The distillery company is made of rosi- dents of this city and of Casey, this state, the prime mover being Mr. F. H. Whitney, who has done more for Atlantic tinn any half dozen other men, and who never misses an oppor- The three churches are on the high grounds and add much to the general appearance of the place. The Metho- dists held the first religious service, and the first sermon was preached in the depct. TRE SCHOOL is under the management of Prof. R. M. Bridges, an experienced teacher, and the village having just been set off into an independent district, is about to build a good union school house. J. A. ROSE was the first merchant, and moved his store nine miles to reach the place, He opened a general merchandise store, and the building is nowused by Dr. Stone as a drufi store and office. Mr. Rose is now the postmaster, and with Charles Schick, the ‘“‘implement man,” is doing a large business in genoral merchandise. D. Bussard & Co. began here a year ago, and W. H, Hays has just opened under his own sign; while William Trenholm and Crostwait & Co. fill up the comple- ment in that line, TIW, was one of the early men on the ground, and has the banking, lumber and coal office all in one building, but will immediately put up a good bank building. ALDEN DR, T. W. was the early physician here, and to- day has the practice, and keeps a fuil line of drugs, and withal is one of the best of men. J. L. GWYNN, the business minager here for C. S Burr & Co., heavy grain dealers, was probably the first regular BEs reader in the place, and Dr. Stone the sec- ond, while now all read it and agree with the paper that ‘‘don’t wear a brass collar.” SMITH, RICHARDSON AND CO. have a steam elevator, and the busi- ness here is only a specimen of the immense business they do along the Wabash and its branches. They have 60,000 bushels of corn now on hand. F. M. TOMLINSON, the harness man, uses a large amount of leather made by his father in the tannery at Clarinda, which is the most serviceable leather to be found, and this shop is doing an_extensive business, and Mr. H, E. Tomlinson, his brother, has just bought the barh wire works and will give his personal attention to the making of barb wire, which is no small business. R. B. ALLEN, the gentlemanly and obliging agent for the Wabash at this place, 1s oue of the prime factors of business in the town, and one of the few men who can always be trusted, and who say little and think much: and your cor- respondent would desire to express thanks to several of the kind and gen- tlemanly conductors of this railroad who have 80 many times rendered your commissioner real assistance, partizalarly Wm. Daugherty and Chas. McCarty, of the Wabash, and Conductor Titus, of the C., B, & Q , who are an honor to the companies they represent. CAPT, L. K, HUITON, has his hands full of law and city busi- ness, and having just reflited his house and put in some new supplics, hs can and does make his guests fee! at home, and especially if he has an old soldier to talk to,"tor the captain syrved his ‘‘three years during tne war.” STONE MR. E, F. WHITNEY, for some time located here in the patentright and general traflicing business, is about fo remove to Brooks. The trade of this little city of 400 is quite extensive, as may be noticed by the statement of Franlk Sutton, who sold oyer $1,300 worth of boots and shoes to the merchants of this place one day this week, and §2,000 or %3,000 more next day in a|, Pt have been heve, and little town on this same road, We |, ous work, The f.mw notice R Tl \ aro do ing, and #ay they P K NAYNE, will not do anything, With a brew the Council Blufls broom-maker, has|ery worth 000 and ten saloons ding lots of brooms down A when we inquired more arly wo found the greater par of the goods for this place are hought from Omaha and the Bluffs, as the filled by a bill of Johnson & Co., of been s goods f Omaha. W, has just opened up another new meat J. SMALLEY market, and proposes to offer t! quality at living prices, while the “‘hog buyers,” and will & stock if 1t does not interfere too with his I trade. his road we notice large cribs corn, yet many cribs are empty and are béing taken down as a | much safer means of keepiug thew from destruction, as empty cribs blow down or become almost worthless. Few hardware stores have as com- plete a stock of A, F, Dunping; aud. to be short, this is a growing town with a p live much All alox of 1 g00( good trade, plenty of new tunity to boost it along on its upward career. 1t is calculated this institu- tion will cost 880,000, and that it will be in running order by the lst of September, this year. he side track to its location, about one-half mile cast of town, is already graded. WATERWORKS, Propositions having been received from & number of waterworka con- tractors, it being made known that Atlantic wished to construct a system of waterworks, a citizens’ committee was appointed and recommended the adoption of the Holly system and the proposition made by Mr. Cowell, of Muscatine, the Holly company's western agent, which was to build a system of works to cost $62,000, to be paid b the city upon the completion thereof. Legal light was let upon the question, and it was discovered that the city had no right to issue 862,000 of bonds, that amount being in excess of the 6 per cent fixed by the law as the maximum. This has given the water works a back-set, but an effort is being made to over- come this legal obstacle by organizing a private or stock company. What the result will be your correspondent cannot now determine. POLITICAL. The caldron has commenced to sim- mer a little, and occasionally, when the lid lifts, one can see the would-be congressmen from the new Ninth “bob up serenely.” At present Cass county is without a congressman, Hepburn’s county being taken out of the new Ninth. This, however, does not seem to cause much weeping among those who are only too anxious to robe themselves in congressional garments. In fact, there is a good deal of covert rejoicing, and Lafe Young, one of Cass county’s ‘‘favorite sons” (as he thinks), wears a smile which has not been visible upon his placid countenance since the republi- can state convention sat down upon him g0 heavily in his candidacy for the lieutenant governorship of the commonwealth. Lafe is always ready to take auything politically that ‘offers itself, and would not object to representing the Ninth if it was forced upon him. But his sceptre is not wielded with the same power in this county that it was in days of yore, and the enemies in his own camp, and those in neighboring coun- ties in this district, who have no cause to love him, and a good cause tor not doing so, will, undoubt- edly, see to it that he remains ‘‘ex- clusively engaged in the newspaper business.” I am not a prophet; neither am I the sun of a prophet, but if George Wright, of Council Bluffs, fails to ‘‘knock the persimmons,” I lose my guess, Cass county, and Lafe Young in particular, would have been more than pleased had Pottawat- by past experience all know the usunl one-sided character of Council Bluffs votes in nominating conventions. Really, your correspondent thinks it the most hoggish county in the state. But time unlocks the secrets of the future, and I do suppose that it will take time to ascertain the strength of the following of each of the many candidates. We almost forgot to mention that Cass county has still another candidate for congres- sional honors in the person of A. S. Churchill, » barrister of this place. Failing to be nominated for legislator last year, he tried to be elected mayor « few weeks ago, and being beaten for that oftice, he now seeks balm for his wounded feelings by his effort to draw & congressman's salary. He stu as good a chauce as Lafe, but that is not the best in the world.

A Chronicle ropotter who had heard that the operation was to be performed ealled on the skillful practitioner and requested permission to witness the achievement of science At first the dentist declined to allow a representative of the press to witness the operation, having grave fears that such a pro- ceeding would scatter the sacred tradi tions of the healing art which main- tain and encourage medioerity by compelling every clever practitionor to hide his light under a bushel and await the slow process of being dis: covered in the darkness of his unad- vertised office by an indiscriminating public. Having been assured that his name would be kept a profound secret, t.l.m_ dentist ecumnloc{ to satisfy his vlll,h\r‘s curiosity, and stated that the patient was a Chinese woman, whose nose and upper lip had beon destroyed by cancer. A DISFIGURED HOURI, ‘‘She willbe here ina few mo- ments,” said the dentist, and almost immediately the woman entered, ac- companied by & man in Chinese attire, whose face offered incontrovertible evidence of an admixture of Caucasian blood. The woman held a handker- chief to her face until she had taken her seat in the operating chair, when she removed the cloth and displayed a countenance inexpressibly horrible, 8he had been once good-looking be- yond the degree of comeliness usually displayed by the Chinese women one sees in California, for her cheeks were round and her eyes rather shape- ly. The disease had, however, not only deprived her of a nose, but destroyed her upper teetk and left the bones bare and surrounded by fright- ful cicatrices that run through the corners of the mouth and up to the bridge of the nose towards the eye- brows. To make ruch a face present- able scened an impessibility, but the task was performed speedily and suc- cessfully. The nose and lip had al- ready been molded in celluloid from a plaster cast of the face, and having been carefully colored, presented a most life-like appearance. The den- tist, in molding the nose, had to de- pend entirely on his imagination, and had modeled a thoroughly Asiatic one. The artificial lineaments having been prepared, there remained only the interesting but difficult teat of at- taching them, ATTACHING THE FEATWRES, In supplying artificial noses it is customary to attach them by spec- tacles, but in the Chinese woman's case such an arrangement would have been imfiusnible, owing to the great size of the disfigurement caused Ly theloss of the lip and teeth. The difficulty was overcome by attaching a gold spring to the upper jaw 1 the manner in which single teeth are af- tixed. The spring ran up to where the bridge of the nose should have been, and to this spring the artificial nose and lip were attached by an In- dia rubber loop. Thecombined pres- sure of the spring and the India-rub- ber drew the celluloid mask so close to. the face that, being molded to fit the cheeks, it would have looked quite mnatural but for the lack of that transparancy which liv- ing tissue possesses, While the woman’s countenance was in repose, the effect of the work was remarkably good, and the transformation which 1t effected in her loeks was so great that she eagerly seized the mirror offered by the dentist and looking at her reflection, she uttered an exclama- tion of surprise and delicht. She gave the practioner a handful of ten dollar pieces, and trotted off with her half-caste escort, filled with a satisfac- tion at parting with wealth seldon shown by Mongolians. ARTIFICIAL NOSES, When the patient had gone the dentist stated that the operation, thoagh a diflicult one, was not at all difficult in dentist surgery. This science has advanced to such a degree that the transformation of disfigured countenances is an important part of it. In Paris, where the artistic fa- cilities are greater, it is possible to obtain artificial noses, and lips wrought 80 deftly and delicately in wax that, except to a very close inspection, they seem natural. Celluloid is the only material ' in which the denter-surgical artist of Calforaia can work, and, though cel- luloid features are not the most lovely that can be made, they have the great ty. The owner need ‘e about engaging 1 debate, and, un- der the mostdepressing circuistances, keep a stiff upper lip M. R.
