The main objectof the mecting was to talk the advisabitity of Blue league, and this subjoct broached the first thing, Colonel W. M.

B. Daile; itati in bis office and sig the Council Bl 3.1, St i pre | that had been prepared vd by the president of Driving Park association, The invitation was substan sented an it ily as follows T the Gardencrs' and Frait Growers' Asso clation of Pottawattamie County: The Coun- il Blufs Park wnd Vi association Cit is its purpose to fenltural faie'in con- tions at its fu- and 1o this end t Growers' assoclution of together with all agricultural dlally invited respective Tibo coming Septenl the Dreiving Park and” Fafv nssoe oflicers and managers of the latter association hereby proflerto the Gardeners' and Frait owers” and ull kindred ngeicultural asso- ations every fachity needful to mutually advance the” best [nterests of both associi- tous wnd to form within ourselves in orgini- zation that may be permanent and profitable, The subject was then declared open for aiscussion, and the opportunity was taken advantage of very generously. Mr. Stewart stated that in his opiniou it was tiune that Council Bluffs began to pay some attention to her own aairs, and ne did not see how it could be Better done than by considering just such enterprises us the oné which lad been suggested to the association, He called to mind that in former times Council Bluffs had had acounty fuir that had beon unexcelled by any in the state, but that for sowe reason o other it had been allowed to die out, The Driving Park association now proposes to re- vive it and make it a permunent affair, und with the ussistauce of the farmers and fruit growcis, ho saw no reason why the old timo success should not be realized. Colonel Dailey also spokein tavor of the en- terpriso. He stated that tor miles east of the city Pottawattamie county consisted of one immense garden, and he did not believe there was a single county in the state that could furnish tho material for an exhibit of its products in this line such as Pottawattamie could furnish, Other speaiers followed, and to all appear- ancos the opinion of almost every one present was in favor of reviving the county fair. President Stewart of the Driving Park asso- ciation then extended an invitation to the members of the Farmers' assooiation to take a ride with him on the motor line to the driving park for the purpose of looking over the ground and seeing what arrangements would have to be made before the fuir could be held. A special motor train was sent for und in a short time about twenty representa- tives were on their way to the park. Before they went, however, they appointed a com- mittee of six, cousisting of J. C. Raymond, James Rainbow, S. Underwood, J, W. Tem- pleton, L. A. Cilsper and Eugene Hupfel, to coufer with unotlier committee to be ap- pointed by the Driving Park association with reference to che invitation which had been extended to the farmers to engago in the fair enterprise with them. Anotner meeting of the association will be held next Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, at which time another ride will be taken to the driving park on invitation of Mr. Stewart. At4 o'clock the farmers will couvenc in the court house and will hear reports from the committees, including the one which was ap- pointed to consider the advisability of joining the Blue Grass leaguo.

A decres was handed down yesterday morning by Judge McGiee 1n the case of Fred Cline against the Northwestern aillway, which setties, 5o far as the superior court is concerned, the question as to whether or not it is necessary for railway companies to build fences along their lines inside city limits, The suit was brought in the first place to collect damages for the killing of o horse which foll through a culvert on the Northwestern — inside the limits of Council Bluffs, The ground upon which the plaintiT ~ based = his claim for damages wus a statuto which was passed at the last session of the lowa legislature a little overa year ago providing that all railway companies in tho state should fence thei lines on voth sides. He held that this statute was applicable to that part of the railway lines inside of tho eity limits as well as to the Lines outside, and that the provision for cat- tle guards at highway crossings applied well to the crossings of streets as to the cross ings of county roads. The decision of the court was in favor of the defendant, the de cision being that the statuto was uot applica ble to railway lines inside of corporate muuicipal limits, As the decision is one of the the statute, it has if there were more cision.

It was well known that the emperor regarded all who went there as his enemios, and this young and iunocent woman was destined to feel the tull bitterness of his displeasure, We cannot trace here the incidents of her varied carcer., the misfortunes of a father to whom she was a ministering angel, and the loss of her husband’s fortune and her own, the years of wandering and exile, the second period of brief but illusive prosperity,and the swift reverses which lead to her final retreut She was at_the height of her fame in the early days of the restoration, when her sulon revived its old brilliancy, aud was the center in which all parties met on neutral ground, Her intimate relations with those in power gave ita strong poiitical influence, but this was never wmarked featuve, as 1t was maiuly personal But the position in which one is most in- clined to recall Madame IRecamieris in the convent of Abbaye-aux-Bois, where divested of fortune and living p the simplest manner, she prescrved for uearly thirty years thé fading traditions of the old salons. “Through all the chauges which tried her fortitude and revealed the lutent hevoism of her churacter, she seems to have kept her sweet serenity unbroken, bending to the passing storms with the grace of a facile nature, but never murmuring at the mevitable. One may find in this flexible strength and gentleness of temper a clue to the subtle fascination which held the devoted friendship of so many gift ed men and women, long after the fresh charm of youth was gone. .
