Where Will It Stelke? you couldn’t have heard it any ,”" was the reply made yesterday by a leading republican, when Tue Be in- formed him that there was a report in circulation to the effect that the said poli- tician was anxious to place a goodly number of simoleons on the appointment of Post- master Bowman’s successor, in otner words, that he wanted 10 bet as to whom the new appointee would be. . “Yes sir, I want to put a few silver shekels on the result,” he continued, ‘‘and I willtell you justhow I want to bet. I won't agree to pick out the man, for I always want a double-header, 80 I will say that he wiil bewne of two whom I will name. Now, then, it is my firm opinion. and 1 am so cer- tuin of fvthat I will stake every dollar I have on it that the next postmaster of Council Bluffs will be either J. J. Steadman or I. M. Treynor, with the chances strongly in favor of the latter. No, 1 have not re- ceived a pointer from Judge Reed, but that 18 just the way I want to bet. 1 know there s a number who think that Judge Reed’s ew, Will Beers, will get it, but I don't. argue that the fact that George Phelps has been given a place in the postofiice is a dead sure pointer that Beers will soun be transformed into_a lightning rod, but thoy are a long way off, 1t 1s reported that Beers has already re- signed his position on the other side of the river, but if e has, he will soon be hunting another one. My money says that it will either be Steadman or Treynor, and if you see any one who is just as positive that it will not be, you will confer a favor by send- ing him my way. Nominees for county of- ficest Well it is rather hard to tellanything definite ubout that just yer. 1 take very kindly to the report that Tom Bowmun is laying his lines to capture the nomination for treasurer., He is either after that or the auditorship, It seems to be a settled fact in the minds of the local dewocracy that the Globe must have one of the three principal oftices that become vacant this tall. There is no question but that Dan Farrell wants to be sheriff, and cume up hers for that very pur- pose, but he don’t stand a ghost of a ehow this year. Jimmie O'Neill's friends wouldn’t stand it, and I rather think Farrell has abandoned all hope of 1t for the present. That leaves only the auditor’s and treasu. ers's oftice for Bowman, and he will un- doubtedly capture one. ' It all depends on how they can patch up matters, us to just which one 1t will be.

It is ali very well to provide for the care and maintenance of the sick, and such a move would un- doubtedly meet with the hearty approval of every geod citizen, but when it comes to pro- viding for the maittenance of the indignant, the load becomes altogetaer too heavy. Asa matter of fact, there are thousands of indignant people in Council Bluffs atthe present time; indeed, there are more of them here than in any other city of similar size in the country, and 1t 18 safe to say that if the advice of the paper above quoted was fol- lowed, it would be but a short time until the entire populution would be overwnelmed in & fit of indigonation over the result. Tae BEE believes that the county should make better provision for its sick; in fact it has repeated)y urged the pecessity of the erection of a county hospital or of making adequate arrangements, on liberal terms, with either one or both the hospitals already established, to care and provide for these unfortunates. The pittance of 50 cents or a dollar & week allowed the hospitals by the county for each of its patients sent there is little less than an ivsult to the noble ladies in charge. It would be wretched compensation for caring for a healthy person, to suy nothing of the multiplied attentions required by one prostrated by illness. It must be under- stood that there are regular churity patients to be cared for by the hospitals, which fact, of itself, should protect them' against any such imposition on the part of the county, as is now practiced. In this particular there is a demand for a radical change, and it can not come 100 800N, But when it comes to a proposal to furnish wet nurses for all the indignant ones, THe Bee takes its stand with the opposition. ‘The condition of these patients is not in the least dangerous, 1t is a disease that will cure itself, and when the indignation swells sufticiently, 1t will break upon the offending cause, and when the smoke clears away there will not be enough of the cause left to lead to a recurrence of the disease. This being the case, it is respectfully suggested to the board of supervisors that there is no need of their interference in the matter, as there are positive indicatlons that the mg- jority of existing cases will bo cured on the first Mouday 1n March, at which time all such cases of municipal indignation usuaily find an cffective pauaces. As 10 the *'sys- temizing and proper care of the county rec- ords,” 1t may not be out of place to inquire “‘what's the matter with the court house and county ofticers{” ——— Kelley & Youakerman sell rocerie Chaso and Sauborn voffoes & specialy ittt S, and diamonds; Fine jewelry, watchi Burhorn. cleaning and repairing at e City steum laundry, 34 Main, tel, 141, LR Lkl Go to M.

That it is one of the most important is admitted, but its extent and the product in dollars and cents wiil perhaps be a revelation to many beople in the city as well as out of it. T'ur Bee has been making some inquiries and investigations aud finds there are ninety- four fruit and vegetable gardners within a radius of two miles of the court house. Ounly @ portion of these are vugaged in fruit cul- ture, less than one hali of them, but their compined product for every year 18 remark- abl® but for the present year it is simply astonishing, Tue Bee's in’ quiries have shown that during the prescut season these men have harvested and put into market $100,000 worth of small fruits alone. ‘I'bis weludes only berries of all kinds, of which the harvest 1s over. All of these growers have large vineyards and the grape crop, or that portion of it which will be put on the market, will reach another $100,000. T'wo bundred thousand dollars for swall fruits alone in oae seuson makes the fruit industry of Council Bluffs suddenly loow up iuto proportion of sucient size to attract attention all over the country. The products of the vegetable and flower gardens will exceed the flgures named, and another §200,000 can be added as the exclu: sive product of kindred industries, makiug & rand total of nearly one-half million doi- tars for the year as the product of the hills immediately surrounding Council Slufts. There are counties iu the stato where the product of the farws whick reaches the market and returns in the shape of cash is less than this small portion of Pottawattamie county, It is a source of wealth that is perpeiusi and will be ever incrensing, for the market is as inex- haustible as the supply. Perhaps two thirds of all the stuff raised and sold has been de- livered in Omaha and the other third in Council Bluffs, The rapid growth of the two cities will afford a market that can never be glutted, that is within an hour's drive of the producers and that will altrays command the best prices. The figures show the value of the hill property around Council Bluffs, and contaius a suggestive hint to far-seeing speculators and capitalists. - Notice to the Public, The following blacksmiths have entered into an agreement, and will, on and after September 1, charge not less than £ for new shoes and £2 for resetting old shoes on each span of horses: A, N.

Yesterday was a great day for Fairmount park, the number of people that visited that charming spot during the day reaching well in the thousands. Comparatively few of the visitors drove to the park, and it is not probable that a siugle one of them walked up, although a few made the descent on foot, but the great bulk of travel toand from the park was over the e'ectric motor company’s Madison street extension. 1t showed clearly and indisputably what a difference that extension is to make to the park. 1t amply demonstrated the truth of the assertion made many times heretofore that the building of a line to the park would would bring it close tothe thousands of homes of Council Bluffs and Omaha, and in- crease the number of its visitors an hun- dredfold. Up vo this time, many who had seen the beauties of the place seldom vi ited it because of the tedious climb nec- essary in order to reach there, and agreat many more had ncver madé even their first trip for the very same reason, All this difficulty is now removed, and hereafter the park will not lack for visitors. Yester- day there were fully a score of merry picnic parties scattered along the {(rllllv knolls and through the shady glens of this prettiest of pretty parks. Many of them were com- posed of residents of the Blufls, some of whom had lived here for years but had never before visited the place. But by far the greater number of visitors were from Omaha, It was estimated that between 1,000 and 1,500 of the residents of the latter city spent the whole ora part of the day in the park. Even yet the geaeral public does not fully understand what is in store for them at the end of the motor line, and there is not the slightest dcubt that when they do realize what attractions are to be found there, the motor service will be ::xcll 10 its utmost capacity to accommodate e, g E.

When I saw that rickety, tum- ble-down old rastletrap and the little cluster of one-story cottages that lie off to_one side of it, I concluded that Council Bluffs was not the most attractive place in the world. Since then, however, I have had occasion to change my mind. 1 have looked about the city, and I am more than pleased with it, and am convinced thnat it must be a pleasing place in which to reside. One thing which captivates me 18 the num- ber of beautiful lawns which are to be found all over the city, in the business center as well as in the suburbs. Now, in Cincinnati, all this was different. You might almost say that there isn’t any green in that city, and if you want to see a fine lawn you must 0 out two or three miles, Here it is so ifferent that you can imagine what a pleas- ing change it must be. It rather puzzles me to tell now everybody keeps their yards looking 8o nicely. “I find Council Bluffs to be a city of at- tractive homes, and 1 also find rents very reasonable for a western city.

How a Woman Got the Best of a Vil- lain Who Was Bant on Robbery, New York Letter: One day recently in the rotunda of the Fitth Avenue Ho- tel,a number of men were discussing the question of pluck and bravery fre- quently exhibited by persons advanced in years. General Dan Macauley, now a resident of this city, but formerly of Indiana, related the most remarkable instance, as follows: “Dr. Walker, about 60 years of age, and his wife, a few years younger, to- gether with two grown sons, resided in Indianapolis. One night Mrs. Walker retired late, but not to sleep, for she ex- pected her husband to come in from the next room every moment. A light was burning, and lying on her bed she could see the floor at certain angles. Instead of her husband coming in she saw a vil- lainous-looking man, with a bowie knifc between his teeth, crawling through the door on all fours. Ina second he disappeared under her bed, Her husband then came in, blew out the light, and got into bed. “Mrs. Walker said nothing for a few minutes, for she was thinking of a scheme to eapture the robber and save herself and husband from being mur- dered. Finally she said aloud to her husband: *‘I am thi ‘l{; I’ll go and gev a drink of water.” She got out of bed and went to the room where her two sons were sleeping. Putting her hands over the mouth of one she whispered in his ear that u man was under her bed and that she wanted his pistol. The son told her that he gave her the pistol a few days ago, because she objected to his having one around loaded, Then she remembered that she had hid it in the basement room on top of a shelf. “Wait, boys, Ill get it,’ she said. ing down-stairs she passed another robber, the pal of the one under the bed, though she was unaware of it at that time. “*After stumbling around in the dark she managed to find the pistol and hastily rushed upstairs with it. In the meantime her husband suspected that something was the matter, because she had consumed so much time in getting adrink of water. The robber became suspicious also and was vulling himself from under the bed, and had almost assumed & sitting position, his face toward the bed and the knife still elutched between his teeth when the old doctor wasin the act of springing to the floor, Without a moment’s hesitation the doctor tumbled right on the robber and dealt him a powerful blow in the face. They both ell to the floor, the doctor on top and gamely punching him at every oppor- tunity., It was a short and desperate struggie. The robber attempted to cut the Sxmlor, but the latter knocked the knife out of his hand, o tumblin around the robber got out his pistol and pulled the trigger, but the old dog- tor seized his wridtth time and the ball struck the ceilipfy With a strong effort the robbor extricated himself from the doctor and®an for the door. “The son, whao,had the pistol his mother had brought'him, thought that his father was dead,’and resolved to kill the murderer at all"hazzards. He met the robber face to'Tite in the door and fired point blank at his breast. Tnstead of fulling thk robber rushed out. The doctor, hearing the report of his son’s pistol, thought the robber had shot his wife in gofhg out. Tn a fow seconds the brave old couple were safe in each other’s arms. and the next morning the body of the notorious rob- ber and desperado, ‘Hoosier’ Bill Rodi- fer, was found in the back yard with a bullet thrnugh his breast. ow,gentle- men, don’t you think that old woman had pluck in n wondorful degree, and that her husband was worthy in every way te be her mate?” ——e The Musical Sense in Horses. The interesting report regarding the development of the musical sense in horses has just bean made by a commit- tee of German zoologists and botanists. The report says: ‘“The investigations as to the musical sense in horses have shown thut that sense is poorly devel- oped in these animals. 1t has been proved beyond doubt that horses have no notion whatever of keeping time to mu- sic, and that at circuses they do not dance according to the tune,but that the muswians have to keep time accord- ing to the steps of the animals, Other investigations show that horses do not understand military trumpet signals. It is only the rider or the animal’s instinct of imitation which induces horses to make the moves required by the signul, but no horse witkout a rider, however carefully trained, takes the slightest no- tice of a trumpet signal, and the same obsorvation has been made on a large numbur of cavalry horses without rid- ers.” SPECIAL NOTICES.
