U S T e SV Along the path bordered with stones and briers, in the starlight, Stefana walked slowly. A man kept pace at her side, turning his head at times toward his companion to look at her beautiful face, pure and fair, in which his two black eyes shone with dark yet soft brilliancy. “Stefana,” he said at last, pausing, “we have walked a good way. Do ant to lean on my arm?” she replied, ‘‘not yet. It does not seem far to the place where I am going, and I do not feel fatigued.” ““Why, even on our wedding night am I not to lead youto our home on my arm?” “Oh, you know me Petro,” answered Stefana, ‘I am a strange girl. 1 want to feel that I am alone as much as possible. You saw that but now when I requested our friends, contary to custom, not to ac- company us. You must take me just as you find me.” “I adore you as you are,” said the young man ina low volce. ‘‘You know it, and that for three months I have fol- lowed you like a faithful dog. As you wish to be alone, be it so. But to be with me would still be solitude if you love me, Why do you refuse my arm? Do you already regrot our marriage!” “No, certainly not.” “Well, then, walk with mo as a wife with her husband, Stefana, 1 imploro you!” The young man approached her. With a quick, almost violent gesture, she waived him off, Pietro looked at her in surprise. “What is tho matter with ycu?” he asked, becoming suddenly uneasy.

When he wound up his business here and de- parted for his future home in Kentucky he had about $500,000 in cash. Of this sum he had drawn some $400,000. In the decade which has passed since the glittering announcement was made the wheel of fortune has made a turn, and last week the same Richard Penistan had his latest acquisition in the saloon busi- ness closed out over his head because he ocould not pay a trifling monthly rent. The aalf million cf dollars which he once held had taken wings to itself, and in spite of the efforts of John F. Betz and some other friends to put him on his feet again Dame Fortune refused to be courted. Poniatan, some years ago, did a heavy business in bottling liquors and selling direct to families. He amassed a consid- erable sum of money and was regarded as comfortably fixed. He was induced to try his luck in the Havana lottery and drew the big plum in the box. Then his troubles began. First a lot of sharpers in Havana tried to prevent him from col- lecting the prize. When he went over to New York to receive his money he was accompanied by William Whitney, who was a brewer at the time, and is well known in both the cities. After the two friends returned from New York, Whit- ney, greatly to the astonlshment of Pen- istan, brought suit to wrest from him ono-half of the money he had collected. Whitney declared that},Penistan had promised the money to him in return for his company to New York. The suit was compromised, and Panistan carried his half million to Kentucky, where he embarked in the business of horse racing and breeding. As the years rolled along this venture ate up the cap- ital, and Penistan went to New York. Hero he opened a saloon, and the genial rays of the sun of fortune smiled upon him for a time. Finally he came te this city, and a few months since opened on North Ninth street. His friends came to his assistance, but the thirsty passed his door, and the smokers purchased their weeds elsowhere. Finally it was concluded to lot the place go, and John F. Botz bought it in to secure himself, —— “Nip't in the Bu Sad to say, many a good thing attains to nothing more than a falr beginning.

What could I tell you that you do not know? Yes, there is something. I loved Domenico, Did you know that?” “‘Yes, That was why I killed him. “‘You loved me, then, aleo?

HTING A WILL. under my [How & Mil''Majre's Bstate was Die vided'| ‘mong Clatmants . Lawyers, San Francisco Chronicle. The old eaying that a man should pat his house in order hefore he dies, has never received astronger illustration than | in the case of Francois Louis Alfred | Pioche, the pioneer who d more | actively than any other man in the early | development and improvement of San | San Francisco. It was he who interested French capital and built whole blocks of buildings with its aid. [t was he who settled Hayes valley and built the Market Street railroad, who opened new mining districts and bullt irrigation ditches, For twenty-threo years Pioche was the repre- sentative man of San Francisco, now wealthy, now in monetary straits, now paying big dividends and again trying to assuage clamoring creditors. There came the time when (on May 21, 1872,) he was found shot thro: the head. He left a large estate, for he was not a bank- rupt, and for twelye years his creditors, legatees, his friends, claimants, attorneys, executors and commissioners have been at work dividing it. It is accomplished at last, and there is nothing left of the Pioche estate but a roomful ot papers, books and accounts, 1t is the old story. Pioche made a will and a good one, but not one of its provisions has been carried out in conformity with the desires of the testator, PIOCHE'S WILL. Pioche drew this Instrument two years beforo his death, with the assistance of W. H. Stow wnd S, H. Meredith. He mads John B, Felton, Levi Parsons, Joseph H. L Piocheand Romain Bayerque que his residuary legatecs, and charged them to pay a number of of legacies, which show the dead man to have been a warm and generous friend and a man of benevolent and patriotic instincts. The pecuniary*benefits to his friends ranged from $1,000 to $20,000. To others he devised personal property, works of art and jewels, To his servants he gave each a year's wages, To the Universivy of California he bequeathed ail his paint- ings, etchings An:'} engravings—a most valuable collection—with $5,000 in cash, and to the French Benevoent Society he bequeathed two acres of land for a hoa- pital and $5,000 in cash. John B. Felton, Sam. L. Theller, Gustave Dussol and Romain Bayerque were constituted executors, with Gustave Touchard as alternate, They were toserve without bonds and were relleved from the super- viston of the probate court as far as the testator could relieve them by testa- mentary provisions, Imost before Pioche could be buried the trouble and contest began. The dead man had been a member of the firm of Pioche, Bayerque & Co., of which Samuel Moss, deceased, had been a partner, and the debts of the firm were still unliquidated. At the time uf Pioche's death the firm was also heavily involved with local and forelgn creditors, its business having been largely the importation of French goods. The value of the wholo mass of property is at this day estimated at $1,000,000. A SCRAMBLE FOR THE SPOILS, Against it there was filed at once claim upon claim, aggregating millions, even L. W, Parsons, one of the legatees, coming forward with a demand for $25,- 000 for counsel fees. L. L. Robinson, Ploche’s confidential manager, refused to deliver a large amount of property. Wm Thompson laid claim to the San Migual ranch, other people had claims upon the old and the new firm, againat Ploche’s private property and upon him for servi- ces, Thefirst losg was that of the entire personal property, for, as Executor Thel- ler told a Chronicie reporter yesterday, “‘there was none to turn Into the probate ¢’ urt, because the firm's creditors took it all,” Next, the foreign creditors came with their demands, filing them all with Francis Burton, the banker. As soon as it became apparent that there were more claims than there was property to satisfy them the hiring of lawyers began. The foreign and the local firm’s creditors, the claimants upon Ponche’s private property, his associates 1n business and various enterprisesall had recourse to the limbs of the law. The truth was that Ploche’s effairs were in a mixed condi- tion, while his partner, Bayerque, was traveling in Europe. Then came the lawsuits one after another, brief boing filed upon brief—enough paper being covered with legal phrases to fill a fair sized room, Tho probate court never handled a dollars worth of the property, the suits—which were against the firm, and not the estate—being brought in the district courts. For nine years the litiga- tion continued, until in the end it be- camo clear to all concerned that if the le- gal warfare were kept up nota dollar would be left, either for the creditors or the legatees. DIVIDING THE REMNANT, The result was a compromise between all concerned., The entire estate was ceded to the creditors, these agreeing to pay $50,000 to each of the four residuary legatees; 00 per cent of each of the spec- ial bequests and §100,000 to the claim- ants of tho Samuel Moss estate. The agreomeut was carried out by a commis- sion appointed by all interested, its labors having just been conclyded, The exact amounts paid cannot be learned, for the The au- | whole affair having been settled out of dience was taking the speech moekly but | court, there is no record in the probate withont any enthusiasm worth mention- | department.

P A SURE GURF One of the Effects of the Crazy-Quilt 0 Nows. s it a fact that since this crazy-quilt craze has set in the former custom of the dry goods houses to let their lady cus- tomers have samples of stuff has been abolished?” was asked of a well in- formed knight of the yardstick, *‘Yeo, that's so, We had to doitasa measure of self-protection. Why, sir, I tell you that the pecuniary loss inflicted on the large dry goods palaces in this cify during the firat three months of the crazy quilt fashion reached many thousands of dollars. The women would come in shoals for no other purpose than just to obtain material for these quilts. Aud nothing would do them but the most expeneive, rare and tasteful goods, snch as costly plushes, velvets, satins, gold brocade, Sicilian silk, ete. After obtaining fifty cents worth of this in small bits for nothing they would leave without spending a cent, And these women used to do it with the most unblushing _effrontery, as if 1t weroa perfectly honest and decent thing to do. §Strange, but true. There wero lots of wealthy ladies among these crazy quilt, dead-head ladies who thought nothing of) pending hun- dreds of dollars at other times just to gratify a whim of theirs. It seemed to have become ail at once a part of the female creed to obtain all the material needful for the construction of these con- founded humbugs — the crazy, crazy quilts—without spending a cent for it, and a woman would use all her wits and cunning to that end, So wo were obliged to shut down on them; we could not stand it any longer.” “Well, what were your means of stop- ping thenuisance? Did you put up pla- cards to that effect, or how did you do 1t?" “‘We used a very simple remedy. All tho big dry goods firms agreed that after this samples should be given out but sparingly, and only in such small bits that they would be useless for patches in a crazy-quilt. Just watch that woman over there and see how the clerk will handle her.” A woman, richly dressed, who stood at a counter a fow yards distant, was evi- dently getting excited about something. “No,” said the clerk to her. *I can- not cut the sample any bigger. It's against our strict instructions,” “Is that so ? Why, I think that's real mean, Whatis a woman going to do with a tiny little bit of stuff like that? Never mind then, I don't want it. You needn’t bother yourself about it.” Ana with that she flounced out of the store in a huff, “Oh, she'll come back,"” #aid the man- ager. “‘That's the way they all take on at first.

OMAH A A GROWING CITY The remarkablo growth of Omaha during the last fow years is a matter of great astonishment to those who pay an occasional visit to this growing city. The dovelopment of the Stock Yards—the necessity of the Belt Line Road—the finely paved strects—the hundreds of new rosidences and costly business blocks, with the population of our city more than doubled in the last five years. All this is a great surprise to visitors and is the admiration of our citizens, This rapid growth, the business activity, and the many substantial improvements made a lively demand for Omaha real estate, and every investor has made a handeome profit. Since the Wall Street panic last May, with the subsoquent cry of hard times, there has been less demaud from specula- tors, but a fair demand from investors seoking homes. This latter class are taking advantage of low prices in build- ing material and are securing their homes at much less cost than will be possible a year hence. Speculators, too can buy real esta! 3 cheaper now and ought t> take present prices for futur foew years promises greater sve!spments in Omaha than the past i years, which have been as good as we could reasonably desire. New man- ufacturing establishments and large job bing houses are added almost weekly, and all add to the prosperity of Omaha. There are many in Omaha and through- out the State, who have their money in the banks drawing & nominal rate of n- terest, which, if judicionsly invested in Omaha real estate, would bring them much greater returns. We have many bargains which we are confident will bring the purchaser large profits in the near futu ‘We have for sale the finest resi— dence property in the north and western parts of the city.
