The truth of the old Reporter's wxiom, “Never bargain - untit you know what you are going to get,” is illustrated in a most ludicrous manner by a little story told on the gentlemen of the Belt Line management The gentlemen of that corporation cast a ot on Sixteenth and Nicholas streets, which they thou, they must have. Tt was owned by a Mrs. ( oll who was willing enough to with it for the proper money cor tion. But there was a tenant, dried-up Irishman., who lived on the property in question, haying a three vear's lease thereon. ‘The land, of cou could not be sold until his claim was dis- posed of. He was approached by a rep- resentative of the Belt Line, who proposed to him that the company wonld give him #3500 and move his house off the lot to any place that he might designate, Ihe old Irishman cheerfully accepted the offer, The money was pmd over, and the Irishman was ask where he desired his house move To Oireland, bejabbers, " he replied. The Belt Line officials took this as a huge joke and laughed Learty. Their merriment was turned to something else when they discovered that the Irishman was terribly in carnest and proposed to hold them to the letter of their contract At Iast accounts, the ola man still had his £300, and the company had not se cured the lot. How the difliculty will be bridged over still remains to be seen. therr envious eyes on lera n old, “There is a lame eagle in one of the cages at Hanscom Park,” said a doctor the other day to the “Odds and Ends” man. “One of his legs is broken, and le must be constantly in great pain.

These lots have been long known asthe “‘old Davis property,” being iginally owned by Thos. Davis, father of Fred Davis, of the First National bank, In 1854 was built thercon the fir W mill ever operated in Nebraska, The es- tablishment was regarded as a wonder t first, boing large and finely equipped, nccording to the standard of those carly times. 1t had plenty to do in sawing out timber for the residences and business buildings which were then springing up all over the yonung territorial cit Part of the time, it being the only mill 1 the state, it ran night and day to meet the heayy demands pressed upon it. An engine in the mill finally exploded in 1857 or 1858, blowing the lmihlinum atoms. Mr. Davis happened to be about the miil at the time and was blown skyingh. He received injuvies which it was feared would prove fatal But he recovered, contrary to general expecti- tion. That was the last of the ohl saw- mill.
