The attraction of the people looking for holiday goods is entirely centered at Eise- man’s store. It calls out thousands of ladies and children to visit their holiday depart- ment. People are astonished when' they see ourimmense variety, The question of every one is, how could they get such an assort- ment together? and how can they sell their 0ods 80 cheap? The reason is, because we uy them cheap enough and don't believe in thé large profit system that other houses do. ‘We sell them close and sell lots of them, Every market of the world has contributed to our display for thie holiday season. It mattors not what you want to buy come to our store and you will find it. We have goods for the poor, the medium and the richest, and goods tor all classes of trade, and cheaper than you can find them elsewhere, Therefore, make no mistake, call at Eisemans’ store before you think of in- vesting a cent, for the purchasing power of #1 at our storeis cqual to $2 elsewhere. A word to the wise is sufticient. Hexry Esyay & Co., Broadway and Pearl streets, Council Bluffs, Ta, e L C. A. Beebe & Co. are going outof the ro tail trade and will close out their fine lineof ladies’ writing and ofice desks, book cases chiffoniers, parlor tables, parlor and chamber suits, folding veds, plain and fancy rockers, cabinets, mirrors, ete., etc. for less than cost. — Nearly a Fatal Mistake, The friends of Mrs. Martin, a lady living on Upper Pierce street, were given occasion for a great deal of apprenension by a mis- take which she accidentally made while tak- ing medicine, She was ill aud a physician was proscribing for her. Yesterday by mis- take she took a large dose of medicine from the wrong bottle, whose contents were of a poisonous nature. The mistake was dis- covered in time and a couple of physicians were summoned. She was in a dangerous and distressing condition, and they worked with her for several hours before they suc- ceeded in relieving her aud getting her be- yond danger. —— Largest Houss in the West.

It is vreported upon the ex- ent authority of one of Hall's intimate friends who is still in the city, that the little package over which there was such a hot dispute was of a very valuable nature, The papers were alleged to have been worth between 5,000 and $40,000 and comprised railway and miniug stocks quoted in the mar- kets, deeds to valuable tracts of lands and uotes and mortgages., The package repre sented some of Hall's earnings and invest- The address to ) the papers were sent was furnisted Hall's friend here and is on a promineut reet in Kansas City, where he is now sup- posed to be unmnng Still greater interest will be aroused among the many vietims of ‘Hall & Co.” in this u;' by the intimation that Hall confided in his friends that he was going to return some of the mnotes or drafts obtained prior to his arrest. One of the articularly mentioned for this i favor is the old “farmer named Kuight, in Mills county, who was stuck for 00, He gave two notes, one for £100 and the other for $400. The ${00 note, or rather accepted draft, wus presented to the bank in Glenwood and cashed at 10 per cent discount. The other for #00 Hall proposes to return to the old ma Hall's confidential ) d here, who gives True Bee this informa- says Hall has many good streaks in his eharacter, *‘He writes to me,” remarked the friend, “that he has learned all about Knight's situation. He says the old man has alittle farm of eighty in Mills county that is worth pro nl)l 35, or $40 per acre, and personal property will amount to perhaps #1,000 more. llu- old man 1s getting too far along to work, and that was the reason he was so anxious to invest in the pat- ent feed cooker. Hall says he has learned since taking the paper that the old man was anxious to send his children to the Tabor college, and hoped to make enough out of his patent right deal to pay their way. Lest it would prevent him giving the children the education desired if he was compelled to pay the other draft, Hall says that he has coneluded to be easy on him and let him have it buck if the old man will ask for 1t in a real nice, pleasant manner, “ By the way, Hall expects to be up here before long, and no dount some of his old friends will be glad to meet him. He is a jolly good fellow and knows how toentertain, TRANSFORMATION SCENE. Grand Holiday Display. At the BOSTON STORE, COUNCIL BLUFFS.

Judge Deemer occupied one room, having come here for a two or three days' stay to dispose of some cases which he has had in hand. Yesterday he was listening to arguments for a new trial in the case of Despain vs, Pace. Judge Carson sat as usual in the large court room and was busy with the case of Dutcher vs. Gallagher, which has been taking several days alveady. For @ controversy over such dry details as are concerned in this case, the trial seems to be quite inter- esting to those who huve nothing to do but hang around the court room.
