An important business change was made , the stock and fixtures of Hark- ness Brothers being sold to Fotheringham, Whitelaw & Co., a new firm. The death of Mr. E. E.

It is fortunate that this falls into such worthy hands for its continuance. new firm purposes making numerous rad; changes and improvements. These changes will bo made as rapidly as possible. ‘The making of them will necessarily interfere somewhat with the waiting upon customers at present, and the doors were closed yester- day to permit of these changes. In due time the opening will come. and it is safe to pre- dict that Council Bluffs will be proud of the establishment, and give it a liberal patron- age.

There are evidently a few individua the city whe are exceedingly ‘‘hard up,’ they seem to be posscssed of the idea that more fortunate persons should replenish their impaired pocketbooks, either forcibly or otherwise, It is now several weeks since Mr. J. W. Dickey was sandbagged and robbed, but just as the citizens were begin- ning to breathe easy and hope that the and foot pads had laid up for the se now comes the report of their furth right in the heart of the city. Tuesday night, as Mr. Rodda, one of the employes at the People’s store, was returning home, he was stopped on Oakland avenue by a man, who demanded to know if he had any moncy. He replied that he was not accustomed to carrying money at that time of night, The stranger then told a pitiful tale of poverty and hunger, and begged for assistgnee. The story was well told, but failed to“have the desired effect, as Mr. Rodda kept his pocket- book out of sight. The fellow then grew rather abusive, but after carcfully “'sizing up'’ his intendéd vietim, concluded that he had better not tackle biin, and fally skippod doubt but that the fellow robber, and was only de- y doubtful chances of success, About 2 o'clock the sume night, as Henry Wugner was passing ulong Broadway, in frout of the lot on which the new Eiseman building is being erected, he was accosted by a man, the description of whom exactly tallies with that of Mr. Rod- dw's interrogator, “Hello, where are you going ! domanded the fellow. Mr. Wagner supp®ed that it was an acquaintance, al- though he failed to recognize him, aud stited that he wus going home. The lll'mg(‘r re- plied that he was going down to the Metro- politan and walked along by the side of Mr. Wagner. After going a short distance the latter began to feel a little uneasy, and notic- ing & couple of policemen passing on the op- posite side of the street, he called to thew to come over, The suspected highwayman did not wait to see the result of the investiga- tion, but started down Broadway as fast as his fegs would carry him. No attempt was made to stop him and he was quickly out of sight. Mr. Wagner is of the opinion that he would have bad s lively tussle to keep his wallet, but for the opportune prasence of the policemen. The crooks are getting bolder, and citizens should keep a sharp lookout to ratect thelr proporty. Tthero la'a bare possi- ility that if this work is persisted in some- body will get hurt, as some people object to the questionable proceedings of the footpads. In the meanwhile the police will keep a vigi- lant watch on all suspicious characters, 80 far as their limited numbers will permit. - Losing Races.
