The establishment of one or more deep harbors on the Texan coast does not affect lowa as directly us it does other states represented at this convent It being a natiol movement, howeve one which lowa's representatives in congress will be called upon to consider. It is essen- tiul that fowans should be posted in regurd to it. The advantages of such increased commereral facilities are claimed to be so fur reaching that lowa itself will shure to some extent, Another reason why Council Bluffs de- sired representation was that such a grow- ing, enterprising city should be heard from in every such great gathering of busine men. It was no little task for Council Blu to make its presence felt in a hering this magmtude and importance, but its little squad succeeded. The chiof move made by the delegates from this city was to sccure the position of permanent secretary for Mr rly, of the board of trade. T number of other Towa cities represented, among them Moines and Davenport,’ In the lowa cerly was solidly endorsed by Towa delegation.

The next con tion will be held at To- e nd the following one at Omaha, Such is the present arrangement. When the con- vention is hold at Omaha, it is probable that the sec ship will be' given to Council Blufis, Nebraska having got the chicf honor at the Denver convention, and it_being more convenient to have a secretary chosen from the immediate locality of the convention.

Maps and merous ad among the d chief g : » ve some fruit. ngers from various parts of the country would pick out the blue badges of the Council Bluffs delegation, and make in- quiries which vere gladly answered. One finds occasionally a face familiar to Council Bluffs, At Wells, Fargo & Co.’s oftice in Denver Mr. | A, Wells greeted his old Council Bluffs friends most cordially. He was forseveral years traveling auditor of the American Express company, with head- quarters in Council Bluffs. Recently he has been agent and assistant superintendent of the Welis-I"argo express at Denver. A day or tivo ago he received notice of his appoint- ment by W. H. Hancock to the position of general superintendent of the company’s busi- ness for lines east of Chicago, with head- quarters in that wonderful metropolis. This will be gratifying news, indeed, to his many frienas here. Mr. Wells 1s quite young for 80 importunt a position, being but twenty cight years of age. His experienceand ability will doubtless prove amply sufticient. Among_ others located at Denver is J. M. Browneil, who used to be Pull- man_ ticket agent at Council Bluffs He is now general manager for Denve great hotel, the Windsor, which was head- quarters for the delegates. Mr. Brownell takes great pains to make a Denver visit pleasant to all the guests, but there is an extra squeezo and a little warmer grasp for a Council Bluffs or Omaha hand. Ex-Governor Manning who at one time was so near and yet so far from being the congressional representative from this dis- trict. is now located at Denver. He and his family have rooms at the Albany. and judg- ing from the fact that his hotel bill is $20 a month, without extras, it appears that a po- sition as railway attorney must be reason- ably lucrative. Mr. Starr, who lately was in charge of the Council Bluffs bureau of the Omaha Repub- tican, was among those who greeted the Bluffs delegates, He is connected with one of the hotels und is doing some special news- paper work. A younger brother of O. H. Brown, the Main street druggist, was found secking heaith at Manitou Spri He is gaining rapidly and will remain until October. Geo Marshal, formerly superintendent of the street car line here, was seen at Den- ver, where he 1s hiving with his daughter, who is the wife of R. A, Wells. He is not decided whether he will go with Mr. and Mrs. Wells to their new home in Chicago, but will probably do o if he can arrange his business at Denver satisfactorily. D. B. Keeler, gener: ant of the Union Pacitic at Denver, was especially courteous to the delegates and saw to it that the over- land route was made as pleasant possible Awong the ¢ men of familiar face was J. A, Munroe, general freight agent of the Union Pacific.

A state oficial who was in the city recently, remarked that it was the ‘‘neatest gymnasium in Towa.” Arrangements are in progress to accommo- date a large number in the classes during the fall and winter, which are already being or- ganized, work to begin about September 10, The system of gymnastics in use is a won- derful improvement over that of ten years ago. The object isno longer to produce & Dig biceps, but by the proper use of light gymnastics and the bath, to build up every part of the physical system equally. All ex- ercises are simple, safe, beneficial and pleas- ing—just the thing for men whose nerves are overworked.

By this method any special weakness may be evercome, besides strengthening the whole Yody and lessening the chances of sickness. ‘v'his is a great advantage over ordinary ath- Jetic sports, most of which are incomplete as far as general exercise 1s concerned.

Some time ago Rosie Fisher, a domestic at the Ogden house, was one of the parties to a brief though exciting little episode that oc- curred in the hotel laundry, and in which Billy Smith and a pail of scalding water were also prominent factors, Rose skipped, and laid low for a time, but has lately been doing housework in the city. A few days since, she left the place where she had been work- ing, A short time afterward, John Ford vi ited the house and presented an order for her trunk, which was given hirm. Rosie now appears in a frenzy and says thut the order was a forgery, and that all ot er earthly possessions, anounting to some thing over #4100, have gone with John and the trunk.

May Be Obtained From the Weed That Soothes, Tobacco is a nasty weed Which from the Devil doth proceed. New York Commercial Advertiser: 1.do not known what is the proportion of nicotine in it of smoke. [do not know the statistics of deaths from tobacco poisoning nor how many slaves of tob ¢ confessed und repented on th th-heds. 1 have read sun- dry harrowing tales of the fatal o of smoking, to which kind and interes ed friends have ecalled my attention: and who shall say, merely because he never felt, saw or heard the like, that they ave not true? But 1 can not say that I ever smoked my pipe with any less comfort and satisfaction after the reading. Perhaps it is unjust,but Ican never believe that these warnings were ever written by any one who had ever enjoyed the epicarean pleasure of a choice Havana or the succulent com- fort of a well-sensoned pipe. The writer presents himself to my imagination a slim, bilious wight, minutely anxious as to the digestibility.ofshis dinuer, fearful of a draft that o taste of smoke in the air sots him coughing., stiff and upright in his pos- tures, unconscious of the pleasures of a lounge. 1If he knows mnything of the weed by experience, it is in a eigarette. The cigarette smoker knows nothing of the pleasure of tobaccg. Kven if he is conceded the pure leaf it bis little toy, he has not the deep and growing plens- ure in his smoke that the user of th old form knows. There is the same like- pungent, thirstiprovoking, cching voll of paper gea Tull-flavored gar or pipe as in a glass of absinthe to a foaming tankard of ale. But who has seasoned pipe or a meerscham, or who has smoked a real Cuban cigar, not too strong, not too dry, nor yet too moist, and does not know the pleasuve that i hjdden in that magiec leaf? What more graceful than the shapes in which ——the blue wreaths fioated up Like incense on the air. as the rich brown of his cigar changed to ashen grays and adeep sense of peace stole round him, while all the brightest scenes of the past floated dreamily through his mind, and he felt Hope brighten days to come And mem'ry gild the past?

But in the woods, upon the breezy hilltops, along the rippling streams with rod and ln, afloat on a shady river, or sailing ov the long surges of the summer sea, or, best of all, by one’s own fireside on a cool winter's evening, what is lileg o pipe? Whether it is a curiously carved meerschaum whose deepening brown fills the owne heart with pride, or a serviccable briar, or a democratic corn cob, matters'not, so that it is mellowed with that indeseribable quality we call sweetness, telling of long use and many tragrant clouds that have cirveled round and through it. A good pipe is a good friend. As you take it upand tenderly fill 1t for a smoke you ave re- minded of all the pleasant times it has helped you to enjoy, of all the adven- it has shar with you. Perhay it was the gift of a human friend, per- haps picked up in some by way of travel. Then you recall the beginnings of ac quaintance—not so pleasant, as is often the with the first formalities; but gradually you become accustomed to one another, and then what delightful com- panionship was yours! A friend as dis- creet as a book and more sympathetic, always present when wanted, neve tedious, never a bore, always able to he laid aside when other,inte s call, Are you cold, it will nvu(k a glow of geninl warmth through your veins; ar you hot and tired, 'twill soothe and re Tresh you: are you hungpy, it will mak you forget the gnawipg pangs: have you dined, it will lend a ‘pleasure to digestion greater than that of the lotos eatera.

The world can not look very dark to the smoker by his fireside, while the good genius of tobacco :s in the clouds from his pipebowl, like the spirit in the Arabian tale. At home aud abroad, in youth and age, in trouble or in ijuy, what pleasure, what comfort 1s like this? Then smoke away till a golden ray Lights up the dawn of the morrow.

READ THE NEWS. the public, and_ it was one of every-day accurrences. 1 was dining one day with Liszt—Ah, that dear little dining- room; how distinctly I see it now, plain and neat, the square table at which I have had so many charming hours, and the weird etching that hung on the wall, of a bel tower full of bats and owls. As we were finishing our repast, 1 saw through the open door a poor Po- lish girl, who was in the master’s class, slip deprecatingly into the salon. Liszt saw her, too, and rising went to herand brought ber to the table and gave her a glass of wine with the same cour tesy that he would have shown a coun- tess. As we left the dining room, I noticed that he slipped something into her hand. Frau Appel, his thrifty housekeeper, saw it too, and she came to me with a rueful face. It secems that Liszt was in the habit of regularly giv- ing this girl money wherewith to ‘go to her home, and she as regularly spent it and continued to remain in Weimar, Her talent was not remarkable, and she wias too poor even to rent a pinno. For that the master also paid. He wished her to go back to her parents, and was continually providing her the means for such purpose, but she would not go, no doubt preferrving Litszt’'s bounty to the poverty of her Polish home. Liszt was generous to prodigality, and this is but o nstance. Lknow of a very amusing ancedote concerning Dr. Von Bullow For once the erratie little doctor was the vieti of his own caprice. Builow is exces 1y fond of the ballet, and while conduct- ing an opera one night, he was so charmed with the dancers that he in- vited the entire corps du ballet to supper, and_gave orders to the stewart that they should have whatever viand most pleased their astonished palates, From premicre down to corypliie the all orderced lobsters, which arve tremer dously dear in Germany, and for iis asm of enthusiasm Bullow paid nearly 10, a small fortune in Hanover, The tter made guite a little stir in loca circle: Theo.

He is then sparkling, and interesting in conversation. dining with him, one day, when cowski was among the gu, At the table also sat a young lad, soon to make her debut, and was dre ing the teeror of stage fri Several amusing 1eedot lated apropos of this subje kowski, in his inimitable manner, told the most laughuble one of a | who, being quite overcome with sts fright, and finding, as heseated him to play, that he too far from the key-board, instead of drawing his chair nearer, seized the piano with a frantic clutch and tricd to pull iv to him. Speaking of Moszkowski, he is one of the most ¢ wof men, Heis sin- gularly modest,and seems not to reali his great reputation, evidences of which fill him with wonder. I recol- isode which will illustrate his child-like nature. _ Tealled to take my lesson one morn- ing and found him in despair, because the housemaid, in sweeping and dusting his study had broken the leg off a tiny toy dog, worth abont two cents. He sat regarding the treasure with mournful eyes—his eyes, by the wuy are beautiful, 1 forget-me-nots dipped in dew. The situation was pathetically absurd. He tried to make his dog stand, but of course it toppled over constantly. At last he propped it up by another dog that had escaped the majd’s duster, and ecxclaimed triumphantly “There, he can stend in_the world by the aid of his compunion.” There was not a bit of affectation about the whole affair, He was simply unhappy over the accident a child would have been, avier Scharwenka is the opposite of Moszkowski, and yet one often sees these names together.
