The weather during the past week has been yery favorable to real estate trans- actions. The absence of cold and the gradual disappearance of the snow have enabled agents to show off their property and purchasers to flock in large num bers to all available points. A number of new parcels of land have been placed upon the market and large scctions of them have dy been disposed of. FOREIGN LAND-BUYERS. One of the noticeable features of the week has been the presence of specula- tors from abroad. Some of them came from Boston, al from lowa, and quite & number from Chicago and St. Louis, All of them have a study of Omaha's prospects, many of them have made purchases ch they hope to retain for future use Besides these travoling patrons, nearly eyery real-estate agent in_the city has ons to purchase for non dents, which they lose no time in respect- mng. One agent yesterday told the Be man that he represented %w)mmu[ for eign capital, which he s actively en in pumng into land around the y.

Twenty odd years ago Job Moses, a citizen of Rochester, who had made a large fortune #n the sale of patent pill, was violently eized with the oil fever, says a correspondedt of the Chicago Times. The petrolemn excitement was then intense on Oil ereek, and to that promised land people were flocking from all points of the compass. The prevail- ing gmbidon of all was to secure a “piece’ of Oil creek territory, no matter what it cost. That in hand, it was not thought possibie that fortune could longer baffle pursuit. But Moses was not affected in that w. The discase at- tacked him in the form of a mania for searching for a new petrolem field which he might have and hold all to himself, and he forthwith proceeded to find one. He inspected various portions of Penn- sylvania and and finally selected the region in the valley of the Tunungawant ereck, a branch of the Allegheny river, l,\'m% par i New York, teragus county, 0 y in McKean county, Pennsylyania, as the scene of his investigations,” He advanced the theory that there was a vast lake of petroleum underlying that whole region, and he set about securing territory u mu which to test his theory and to hold @ it proved to be correct. The rvglon was A WILD ONE and wholly given up to lumbering. A branch of the Erie railway extended Carrollton, on the western division, twenty-cight miles down the ereck, to the small” lumbering hamlet of Galésville. This branch re | been built in the s when Charles Minot was supreme in management of the Erie—a manage- ment now almost entirely forgotten, It was built for the purpose of connecting h an iron mine that was alleged to ex- ist somewhere down the valley. The mine had not been discovered yet, to be sure; but then it was important to have the railroad ready f use when the ore shonld be discovered, and so Minot built it. The iron mine was found, but, unexpectedly, they discovered @ valuable deposit of coal, and, although it was converting the road to a use never intended, it was resolved to connect it with the coal mine. and it turned out to be a very good investment, the business from coil and lumber r turning this road an income of nearly $2,000 & month. It was from on exp n made ip. pegard to this road, when Job Moses (ip&t fommenced his investiga- tions in the valley, that the nat to look upon hig “asa harmless lunatic —an opinion tift they persistently held to for over thirjeen years. There was a small and , uubeard-of group of four houses and . tavern in the valley then, known on the ¢reek as Bradford Job Moses went to Bradford one day and told the people that they would the day, and soon, too, when the business of llw Bradforfl lranch of the Erie road road would'be tm'x wed ten-fold by the traftic 1t wdald'receive from the petro- leum that was in existence all through the valley. v8o they called him e Job Moses _prospected for th g mountains and through It It ? his ultimate suc- i Then his money He had thousands of of unproductive rock d forest on his hands, At that time oil wells were drilled to an average depth of nine hundred feet, at which « .-,nh the oil was found ALONG OIL CREE When Moses found his fortune all sunk in dry wells and worthless square miles of hills and gorges he went to men of means outside of the oil country and sue- sded by his earnestness and unbounded faith in © obtaining another supply of wealth to pursue his explorations’ fur- ther, In 1875 he had not yet found oil, but in that yi w it occurred to b that it did not necessarily fotlow that the oil sund in t y should be at the same depth il in Venango county, and the drill was sunk deeper. At the dopth of 1,109 foot, the rock that Moses L spe arge fortune and thirteen y s of time 1 finding was punctured, and petroleum of a fine grade responded to the drill at the rate of fifty barrels a The sand in the McKean district third sand, and the Oil ecreek sand second one, below the surface. While this strike created considerable stir, no importance was attached to it by the lower country operators, or by the people even who lived in the valley. Oil creek was then sup) x]smf,, all the oil that was required, although her glory a: field of spouters, or even flowing wells any deserintion gone. he lower country had no faith in the lh.ullulnl ficld. 'Moses had, however, and he held onto his land. He had demonotrated the correctness of his theory, and was con- tent to leave the rest’ to the future. Meanwhile his drill "kept persistently pegging aw at the Bradford rocks; well after well was put down by Moses and others who had gradually come in, and everyone proved to be not only a e L S A )n-msmue with which these wells kept up their supply brought other operators to thinking that there might be some- thing in Moses' idea after all, and they began to flock to Bradford 'In 1876- ,’l the t had to be recognized that tho new field was to be the petroleum center of the world, and all other districts were abandoned, and then THE CLAMOR FOR LAND in Bradford alone was heard, Then Job Moses laid back and received his reward. He held thousands of acres of the very best territory, and he received his own price for it i In the first -three months of 1877 the po p lation of Byadford increased from 800 to 8,500 actuwd inhabitants, while the floating po) )-lnuou was at least 10,000, In March, 1877,*'the monthly receipts of the Bradfor@ hifiach of the Erie railway were nearly #0000, thus more than fol- filling the “prophecy Moses had mede fourteen ye: k‘lfuru The story or the fiumlh and deyplopment of the Bradford eld is well knewn—how it s; uml out an area so \'(,51 that even Mo tounded; angrga that comprised bnum acres of producing territory, upon which 12,000 wells arerc “rilled in four ye and from wlfch for a long time ov 000 barrels ofoiliwere flowing every day; how Bradford srew into a city of 15,000 inhabitants gnd hecame the conter of the sreatest oil-field the world had e nown, while hundreds of other thri towns grrew up like magie, and thousands of wiles of pipe line and hundreds of huge iron tanks becamo nac y to store and handle the wealth that came from the earth, and scores of railrouds were built in all directions to accommo- date the almost fabulous traflie in passen- gers und freight that the business of the wion had called into existence.

In his compluint, Graham stated that he had gone to the expense of coming to this state, upon the promise and agreement ment of the bishop, and that he had come with the expectation of taking charge of & parish here. The suit was for damages,the sum being set at a good, round figure, but it came o naught, and Graham left the country. ANOTHER ATTEMPT.
