Monday morning a large number of prominent citizens assembled at the oflice of Harrison,Ambler & Woolley, 418 South 15th street, for the purpose of forming a grand procession to Ambler Place. After the arnival of the military band, the leading musical organization of the state, the sidewalks and street in the vicinity of 15th and Howard, was erowded with people and it was thought for a while that carringes enongh were wiot provided to carry them, but by put- ting from four to six'in each’ carriage the procession finally started, with Mr. G, S, Ambler in the lead, driving the firm’s matched team of dark cream horse hitched to the neatest and most tive real cstate wagon i which, in gold letters, on the sides, are displayed the firm’s name and business, This matched team, by the way, is one of the finest in the state, having taken the first premium, last year,at York, and Inter at the Om for being the handsomest driving team in the entire state. Following this team were, fiest, the Military band, then ecar mn which were seated several Omaha ladies of prominence, and following them were fifteen or twenty open es Joaded down to their utmost ca The procession i went down Douglas strect to [weltth, thence o arnam, thence to ifteenth, thence to the oflice at 418 South Fiftoenth street. Then; after the band had played a few choice scleetions, the procession again took up its way to Farnam, thence Ywest to Tw ccondl street, thence across to Dodge, thence down to Fif- teenth, thence to Douglas, thenee to Sixteenth, thenee to Harney, and from there to Ambler Place, « All along the route the parade was greeted with well deserved appiause by the bystanders, After reaching Ambler place, where the sale was to tak the band tormed themselves into .and rendered a number of selec Ywhile the spectators looked ov round. Everyone who took the trouble join the procession was well repaid, for none were deceived and they found that Ambler place is the finest property out of doors, and after a number of lots had been sel 1 the party retraced its steps, well sat The military band made % the welkin ring all the way back on P: st and St My avenue to the oflice. i Then after v sort of lunch hour ¢ gelection the crowds dispersed until at £1:30 the procession was repeated with L.even more vigor. The afternoon proces- ¢ 8lon returned about § o'clock and the "band put in the time between that and 6 o'clock parading the street furnishing good music and at the same time adver- tising Ambler piace. Altogetner the affair was the grandest, in a business sense, and the most neaily arranged and the most skillfully managed ever yet undertaken in Omaha, and will be long remembered, T e attend- ance only goes to show bow great is the confidence which people repose in the firn: who originated the affair, and to them all eredit isdue. Harrison, Ambler & Woolley have always dono a fair, konest and upright business, and th worked hard to make the Ambler Place ‘sale a success, and thoy have suceceded. They e all the backing, as far as money is concerned, that any firm in the country could wish, and they are doing more than any one firo to-day toward he development of the very finest resi- dence portion of the citv.and by so doing they are not only gotting to the front rank in real estate circles, but they are there now, and it their intention to stay there,for this week's sensation is not the | have in store for the south- it ont to Ambler ay morning and afternoon. ds like snecess, .
