Baldwin, asked foran interpreter and Henry Eiso: man was sworn in_as such, hut could get no evidence other than the facts as already given in Tye B Dotective Fero was then on the stand and a8 to how he received his “‘pointers” about the two men, as to his taking a seat in the car and seeing Jour- dan working the German, and Burke shouting *‘slip it” to Jourdan on his see- ing Fero watching them, and also as to the arrest, and Burke’s kicking at being arrested by Fero, as ho was not working on Fero's train, which he seemed to know to be the C.

He also testified that he saw something in Jourdan's hands that resembled a check or draft, but that on searching the two men, none could be found. Valentine, the Union Pacific detective was then sworn, and stated the facts about his noticing the two men talking with a man on the train while it was standing in the depot in Omaha, and having his suspicions aroused, watched them: that they ‘‘hcoked” on to Schacf- fer shortly after, and on the arrival of the train on this side of the river he no- tified Fero, and they watched and arrest- od the two con. men and brought them up town in the next dummy, An adjournment was then taken to 1:30 p. m., and on the convening of the court, the evidence was summed up by both sides, Judge Abbott held the two prisoners in the sum of $250 each, to appear in December term of court. Bail was fur- nished, and Jourdan and Burke are now at Liberty to work some fresh greeny, which they no doubt will do, especially when Omaha and this city are so full of people, who are attending the state fair on the other side of the river. This will probably end the case, as there are slim chances of theirappearing in the courts of this county, when they can gt off by simply loosing $250 each.

Mueller, the well-known The sketch is accom- music dealer here. panied by an excellent portrait of him, and the following facts: Weo'add to tho list of prominent men, this week, the face and history of one of the worthiest dealers in the west. A of others as well as that of himself, and who, by a careful industry and frugality has built for himself in his state and vi- clnity a name and business which the most prosperous and successful of our American business men would covet. Mr, Mueller is one of lowa's pioneers, settling in that state in 185, at Council Bluffs, where he still resides. For somo time Mr. Mueller tanught music success- fully, combining with _this occupation an oceosional sale of a piano or an organ, and in 1863 adding to his duties that of oversceing a_photograph gallery, which he purchased and _conducted for some fime. Mr. Mueller was a successtul director and musical organizer, and at ono time had under his charge one of the hest drilled singing societies in the weat, with which he gave over one hundred success- ful concerte. In 1¢ his business burned out with aloss of something like 26,000, leaving him penniless and over $2,000 in debt. In the spring of 18GY) he contrived togain another start and opened a emall music store with cno piano paid for and the rest on trust. He bought his first bill of small goods from Julius Bauer and his stock of books and sheet music from Lyon & Healy, scttling for both in monthly installments. Business picked up rapidly, and our friend soon found himself making money fast and building up a large patronage throughout the entire state, Occasionally he would meet with heavy lusses, and he estimates that in 1875 he had accumulated 235,000 worthof bad accounts, Perseverance, how- over, pulled him through the panic, and steadily eince that time he has been gain- ing ground. He hasa reputation for koeping his word, and when ho makes a promise his customers take 1t for the same value as they would his note. Ho is admired in Council Blufls as one of the mainstays of the place, and in his large estaplishment may be founda £30,000 stock, embracing musical merchandise, sheet music and books, pianos and or- gans, toys and fancy goods. He makes the Weber and Hardmen pianos his specialties and handles them with great success. Me is a man who has won and ilost time and again in the battle of life, but at the present time he holds a firm grip. - — 'POSTPONED, The Commercial Men Not to Come Here Betore October, The commercialmen’s gathering, called at this city on the 15th, 1Gth aud 17th of September, is hereby postponed to October the 27th, 23th and 20th, this change of time is made or: account of im- portant official duties and because a ma- jority of commercial travellers have in- L(n,nlul that they prefer that time.
