His son, John H., now of the Citizens’ bauk, remained that winter and managed the business, and the doctor returned with the remain- der of the family in the spring. In 1871 tho railroad company had here a sido track, section house, finger board, and the same year a few blocks of the town were laid out by the Blair Town Lot and Land com- pany, and a station was finished for busiuess in the fall of 1872, Other blocks were subsequently added by various parties, and the town was in- corporated in the spring of 1875. At prosent the city claims about 700 in- habitants, five churches, one of the best of schools, quite a number of large eleyators, mill} hotels, threo liv- ory stables, several fine brick build- ings, two banks, a tull complement of the trades and professions, and is one of the best markets along this line, being surrounded and aupposted by over 200 square wiles of the best farming lands that must naturally come here to trade, bes des much that come from greater distance because of the liberal prices which are generally offered here, The location six miles from the eastern line of the county and nine miles from Donison, gives it an immense resource, and the cnergy and good judgment of these dealers has already become quite noted. TIHE SITUATION of the town is rather unusual, and at the same timo it is remarkably beauti- ful and picturesquo. The railroad here continues to follow the East Boyer, which, at this place, is a small stream of onlya couple of yards span during the ordinary suw mer seasun, and the banks are low and without the abrupt bluffs that mark their contour further down the stream. ihe gen- eral appearance of the country from any of the elevations is that of gently waving or_rolling plains, forming a myriad of little hills, which are cov- ered with the ripenipg crops, the shocks of wheat, the stacks of bar- ley and rye, and the Jong and regular rows of corn, with here and therea public road clearly outlined, and the rich valleys betwecn these hills seem only thrown in, here and there, to re- lieve the sameness and add the beauty and the finishing touch to the picture, On an clongated knoll, or the point of a little ridge, north of the river and the railroad, is the centre of the clus- ter of houses called Vail. Its eleva- tors, lumber yards, mill, and grain houses, strung along the track; its business streets scattered a little ferther from the iron rail, but keeping on the “lower level” the several churches situated like towers on the hill, and the park, with its beautiful trees and all the ‘‘wordly pleasure” atill further up the hill in the rear; the grand $3,000 >r $4,000 school house standing out boldly on the brow of the hill, 1 the true spirit of which Iowa is 80 proud, while all around the side hill and in the valley, the clean resi- dences, and white houses, are peeping out through thejtrees like the camp of a great army in ambush or sleeping quietly, whila the churchus, from the hill tops, were on guard, and the achools, the lezal and trusted custo- diavs of our public welfare, stand on tho ramparts as wateh-towers, The Catholic church bave a strong society here, und last sexson a tornado smote the four corners of their church buid- ing, and “‘not one stone was left vp on another that was not thrown down,” and thoy are now building another of brick, that is supposed to be onc of the finest in this part of tho state, und will cost when complete $15,000 or $20,- 000, and they have opened a brick yard and are manufacturing their own brick as a matter of economy. This church is ituated across the valley on another hill to the eastward, like a cavalry camp or an artillery pavk, pro and a town, who was oapable of handling & spade, has set a tree in the park on the hil. A TROTTING FARK has been laid out with a good half- mile track, just west of town, by “Uncle Billy Anderson,” who has spent a large amount of money to make it, in the future, a joy to the visitor and the pride of the citizen 1t is planted with trees, has a spring loeated just above 1t, which will carry the water up into buildings any whero on the ground, and furmish pressure for fountain jots. THE FIRE has a full organization, and is sup. plied with a “‘soda fountain,” and the ragular amount of implernta usnally on parade in such cases. Awong Tuk B family wo notice JOUN SHORT, DEPARTMENT who is one of the ‘‘busincss kings,” and holds a central and important position in the growth of the place, aund who has a large steam mill, an elovator of 12,000 bushels’ capacity, and a corn sheller of an “‘unlimited” capacity, to use a figuro of speech, Me. Short built here 1 1 7, and the first year bought wheat in Couneil Blufls to stock his mill, bocause this part of the county was but sparsely tecting the flauk, and guarding an- other scction on the line of mutual defence, The Mcthodist ‘society ded- icated their new house this season, Graco Church Migsion, of the Episco- palian order, was organized some six years ago, and holds service in the (Doutscher Arzt.)

THE BCHOOL, is one of the best in the county, if uot in aeveral counties, and has already attained a high reputation, The pres- ent county superintendent, Prot. E, M. Ainsworth, was, for seven years, the principal of this school, and from this institution have gone out a large portion of the successful teachers of the county, and much credit is due to the citizens and the gentlenen of the school board for their thoroughness and wise policy. THE OTHER BOCIETIES are in good working order, The Ma- sonic brethren instituted a lodge here ten years ago, and it holds regulars in Odd Fellows’ hall, on Friday even- 1ngs, on or before the full moon, The L0, 0. ¥, began one year earlier, and are in a flourishing condition, There are also the societios of V. A, B, K.of P, W. 0. T, U., Band of Hope, Young Men's Lycecum and silver cornet band, THE DEPOT GROUNDS here, a8 at almost all the other sta- tions along this road, show great care, and has anice fenced park between the tracks at the end of the depot that is sot with varictics of trees, and calls to mind that almost everybody in sottled, and but little grain was brought to market. Having had many years of experionce in Chieago, and 14 years 1 Jowa, ho sctiles down with family around him, with his splendid mill and elovator, which handles all the grain by machinery, and can shell 700 or 800 bushels of corn in an hour, is always ready to help build up the town and join in public enterprise with an inteilizence and western enterpriso that is appre- ciated. J. P, FITCH came here about the same time from New York, and places New York cap- ital and enterprise in the balance, and goes to work with the same energy and 18 another prime factor in the growth and prosperty of the city. He has $20,000 or 30,000 invested in steam elovator, lumber yard, coa! yards, farms and live stock. Ho has been one of the leading spirite in keeping the school up to its exalted standard; carries an immense stock of coal that has always supplied the public when others were out; has the largest stock of lumber, probably, in the couuty; and makes a specialty of a brand ot flour which is made to his order and sold under his brand of ‘‘Fitches Dia- mond ' brand; and has a very desira- ble location on the main corner. Just across the street, the TRADERS BANK is situated in a neat brick buildingand takes rank as another important ele- ment of the town busiuess, undor the name of Maynard & Price, This in- stitution is only two or three years olg, but does u regular banking, col- lection, Jand, and insurance business, and has all the facilities, such as vault, time lock safe, de., fordoing ite work in a afe and satisfactory way. Mr. C. E. Price, the cashier and man- aging member of the firm, has been a resident here for a number of years; “TUESDAY, AUGUST 15 1382 7 postotlice, Some yoars ago John pur- chased the drug department of his {ather's store, and after building a beantiful two-story brick next to the postoflice building, was about to open a first-class drug store, when he sold out the stock and ron the store to Chalmers Potter, who is carrying on the business Mr. Potter ia a Prince- ton boy, and an old friend of W Aunin, she assatent editor of Tuer Beg, and wo bolieve they were olass mates 1 the college. Immediately after selling out the drug business Mr. Do Wolf opencd the first bank of the city, and during this four or five yoara 1t has done a large business for | & small town, andat present it amounts to about a half million & year, in gen- eral banking, with the usual land, loan, collection and insurance,” and there is always a *‘lompest” in this bank. 4. W, DEERING is the oldest meat vender in town, and does the principal business, He has good, sizable rooms, and general buildings, with first-class refrigera- tors, deals rogularly in fresh ftish, has about the only hide market for che town, and is provided with coatly and conveniont slaughtering and render- ing works, JAMES M'ANDREWS, just opposite the Farmera' store, has the ‘‘boss” hardware, Mr. MoAn. drows came from Clinton county, this state, a dozen or fifteen years since, and for eight years he has cast his fortunes with this town and the hard- ware buminess, His failing health compelled him to retire for a time, but this summer he hus returned, and assumed charge at the old stand. He carries a large assortment of light and heavy hardware, tin, stoves, cutlery, farm tools, sewing machines, ete., and manages his farm, THE LANGON BROS, are situatod on the east side in good comfortable office rooms, and are doing a large real estate business, being interested in a large amount of lands in Carroll, Orawford and Sac counties, and in Omaha, ALBERT AND ENGLER have just opened a naw lumber yard west and north of the depot, haviug put up choir buiidings and piled up their stock this summer. They pro- pose_to handle lumber, lime, coal and building stone, and will take contracts to build. As they are citizens of the county for yeurs, and well known, they will find a good business and be- come another factor of the town, THE VAIL OUSERVELR is the ouly newspaper in the city, and with 1ts good sense it is not a party paper, but independent c¢nough to Sfight mt Rosowater.” Its editor aud publisher, Mr. G. A, W. Davison, is a gentleman of cultivation, a good mind, is & sharp writer, and is re- spected as a citizen and highly os- teemod by the people of the city. The Obscrver 18 a five column quarto, full of brevities, full of that inaependence that is the only sure vrotection to the public, who expeot through it to be warned of the public dangers without and is one of the few who wina the confidence of all his associates. His partner, Mr. J. W. Maynard, also an early settler, is giving personal atten- tion to stock BARRETT AND RYAN, of the “Farmers’ Store,” jowing this, havo the leading general merchandise house. Their sales room is 40x80 with three front doors, and is spoken of as tour stores combined in one, and the business is divided up into the de- partments of dry goods, millinery, clothing, gents' furnishing, and hats and caps, carpets, faucy dry goods, merchant tailoring, boots aud shoes, crockery, and groceries, making a uni- versal store, composed of four siores separated by shelving, They carry about a $15,000 or §20,000 stock and doa $50,000 or €60,000 business, This firmn have been in business here seven years, a scripture number; and all young men of clear heads and bus- iness ability, Mr. Kd, Ryan, tho manager, is gifted with business tact and politencss, which is not as com- mon among our western men, as in the eastern cities; and Mr, H. Barrett, his partner, 1s spending part of his time on a large stock ranch at Wisner, Neb, CASEY AND CASEY, on the same side of the street, have another general merchandise store, which has passed iuto history as the “Pioneer Karmers'store.” Thoy have a large building and warehouses and carry a gereral assortmoent, and are from Clinton county, In, L. P\ MOONEY, on the next corner, has the pioneer store, and carries a general assort- ment, including dry goods, clothing, hats, caps, boots and shoes, woodon ware, groceries and sewing machines, Mr, Mooney began here before the town could “‘walk alone,” building his store in the grass and sleeping in the shavings, and to-day hus & good and reliable trade, Just across the strect, on auother corner W. L. LELAND has Luilt up a good trade in drugs and continues to vend vhe curative articles in large quantities to the satisfaction of the people and his own exchequer. This was the first exclusive drug store in the city, and has done a large busi- ness, and 18 the successor to the firm of Riggs & Haskina, But we could not pass this drug store without men- tion of DR, M. FITZGERALD, who offices here and makes this head- quarters. The doctor has been i the practice of medicine here for a halt dozen years, has probably as good practice as any physician in the county, is one of the men who lays off the starch for the practical things ot life, likes a good horse and makes some money with them, sticks to the demo- cratic ticket and loses money on that, and is in great demand among the sick because he knows the “healing arts,” and is therefore an important factor in the town. HENRY WINANS haa the head yuarters for the turfman, d geems to be absorbed in horse sub. jo Ho keeps plonuty of good horses and excellont “‘rigs,” knows all about the gporting horses and keeps some himself, and among other things has been in the livery business here for soveral years, and a citizen of the county for thirty years, John H. DeWaolf, who acted as the pioneer during the lirst winter in the history of Vail, is tho cashier of the CITIZENS' BANK, which is in the same building with the regard to ' party, and executed with clean and clear pages that seem re- freshing by the side of our ‘‘great dailies,” and “*dauby impressions and patent bowels.” THE M'HENRY HOUSE, one block from the depot, passed into the hands and personal management of Mr, L. L. Biich, at the beginning of this year, and is a credit to the city and a great satisfaction to the traveling public. Mr. B. is a later importation from New York city, and is u natural hotel man, und is as at- tentivo to his guests as the employes of the Ogden house. o has a living curiosity in the shape of singular fish, which he keeps in an aquatic vase with a gold fish, as that is not dis- posed to duwturb the “life, liberty and the pursuit f happiness” of this stranger fish as the little bullfish did, This stranger fish was found not far from here suon atter a heavy rain as the water settlod away. Parties say they have personal knowledge that just bofore the storm, as usual, the little pond was dry with no fish, and after the storm wna the retirement of the water the pile of fish remained, They are of singular appearance, and 1t is claimed are s rangers here, and it is supposed were brought here from Mex- ico 1n u water spout, which svems to have burst the pool here and left them on the sido track because they didn’t pay for transportation, or wouldw’t agroe 1ot to bulld any mere roads in Colorado or Mexico, or poasibly thoy wore going to Washington te see Gui- teau hung, or to New York to help elect Grant governor. At all events, this one liugers with this New York man, which seoms quite suspicious, The Chicago Herald says: *'1¢ is sup- posed these fish were brought to this country by a water spout. The same fish has mysteriously mado their ap- peatance in Colorado, and the follow- ing from The Denver News gives a description of them, It is 8 Mexican axalott and was found 10 an irrigating diteh near Golden, The creature is about gix inches in length, hes a tail like an cel and a head like a catfish, has four legs similar to those of an aligator, and fins on either side hike a fish, Theaxaloti is said to be s native of Mexico, and there is much surprise to know how 1t came to Colorado, 'The bite of the fish is said to be very pois- onous, and it subsists on worms and flies, It is eaten by the Mexicans, being taken in large quantities from a lake near the City of Mexico,” I have seen the fish and heard the “round unvarnished tale” delivered, but beyond this I cannot speak from personis| knowledge, and 8o I quote authorivy, becauso some one will say it is only a “ftish story.” Lost we weary the readers of Tue Bek, we are obliged tocut off a longer description of this growing, energetic young city of 700 or 800 souls, and as we have tried only to notice the more important features of the place, and have made a business directory which on another page, and may an e resume the story, wo must congratnlate the Vailites on their unity of action in public improve- ments, and general onterprise, and ot & bright future and prosperity for this youny Carthage, the metropo- lis of Crawford county.
