DUG A HOLE THROUGH A BRICK WALL, Other Inmates of the Jail Indulged in Nolsy Merrymaking to Coneeal the Efforts of the Liberty Seokers—One Captured, When Sheriff Hazen went to feed the prisoners in the counfy jail yesterday morn- ing he was surprised to fnd that about half his guests had disappeared. A little investi gation showed a hole in the grating of one of the west windows, through which the miss- ing ones had made their escape. Six prisoners, who were confined for more or less sarious offerses, were gone, and they had left no word for nhim to indicato where thoy might be found. Ounly those were left who wers serving short sentences, and thoy would in all probability have gons also had not their love for a good warm place to stay and plenty to eat exceeded their craviug for liberty. Those who were missing were Edward S, Fegley, who was sentenced a couple of months ago to o term of nine months for committing a murderous assault upon his wife; William Stewart, a colored man charged with assault with intent to commit murder; Jack O'Donnell and William J. Douglas, charged with holding up a travel ing man from Omahba named Blotzky at Neola; Henry Moore, who stole $15 from a boy on lower Broadway and skippea for Omaba, being brought back on u requisition; and Edward Ward, who 18 charged with snatching a purse from the hand of Mrs. O'Connell on upper Broadway not long ago. The five last named had all been bound over to the grand jury, and their cases would probably have baen tried at the coming term Kr court bad they been indicted by that 0 he alarm was first given by onoof the other prisoners, who rapped loudly on the door of the jml while the family of the sheriff were at breakfast. The man who gave the alarm said that the delivory took place at 7:30 o'clock the evening before, so that his anxiety that tho fugitives should be recap- tured had not apparently interfered with his night's rest. During the evening the pris- oners made a great deal of noise by their singing and shouting, as it was afterwards remembeced, and itls supposed taat the noise was made to serve asa cover for the operations that were going on. The padlock on the door leading into the corridor had been sawed through and the door opened, allowing the prisoners 10 pass inw the west corridor, at the end of which was a grated window, one of the bars of which had been sawed through at both ends and removed, making an aperture avout a foot long and a little narrower, through which they clambered out. None of them bad any clothing on besides what they had been wearing in the jail every day. und they must have found the nmight air decidedly cold before they got through breathing it. ‘The shoriff has been in the haoit of allow- ing his prisoners to work tho cylinder them- selves at night, each man going inside whenever he sees fit, and when they arc all in the jailer came in and locked the cylinder door. It is supposed that the men who con- templated making ihe break stayed outside and the door was locked without the jailer noting their absence. This is the Hrst time any of the prisoners have gotten out of the county juil in this way since three years ago last August, when nine of them escaped at one timo. Fegley’s wife brought her baby to the jail yesterday morning bright and eurly 10 see its father. She showed blainly that she had been born for the stage by the look of genu- ine astouishment her face put on when informed that Mr. Fegley had broken out of jail and had in all probability spent tho night with her. She stoutly denied having known that be had escaped, but the sheriff was not worked by the bluff. A couple of deputies went down to the Fegley house in the west- ern part of the city and made & thorough search. Ihey were just about to give it up when they chanced to notice a little recess back of = the chimney upstairs that had escaped them. Upon investigating thoy found Fegley curled up snuely inside. He was brought back to the jail to serve out the rest of his time. An Elogant Suite of Rooms, Perhaps the handsomest suite of busi- ness rooms in the city are those that are now oceupied by A. A. Clark & Co., sec- ond floor over the American Express company on the corner of Main and Broadway. Mr. Clark has done a very fine loan brokerage business during the past year, and the incrense has been so greatl that at the present time the large front room formerly occupied was too small to afford proper accommodations for it, not to take into consideration the future prospects, which indicate a still heavier increase. To obtain suffi- cient room neuarly the entire soc- ond floor has been remodeled and a large well lighted room added to the front apartment. The new apartment, togother with the former oflice, has been decorated in accordance with Mr, Clark’s own ideas, and the work is a permanent compliment to his artistic ability, The wall decorations are modest and hand- some, and are the newest ideas in that ) ings are of the most The the tistically with the wall decoration. private office is carpsted with heuwviest royal wilton, Mr rk will be the recipient of many compliments upon his good taste, and his patrons will appreciate the ef: fort to increase their comfort and con- venience.

The committees which were appointad to look after the general arrangements several ‘weeks ago put in days and nights of anxious thought and worry for fear evervthing would not pass off just right, but all these fears proved to be groundless, as there was not a itch from the start to tho finish, in spite of their lack of experience. The gentlemen were called for by theirlady escorts and taken to the hotel in carriages. The guests commenced to arrive about § o'clock, and from that time until 9 they kept coming. The dining room, on the too floor, was thrown open for danciog, the orchestra occupying the northwest corner, The dance program consisted of nineteen numbers, and was not completed until 2 o'clock in the morning. Elaborate refreshments were sorved about midnight. Nearly every girl wore a now gown, made especially for the occasion, and the combination of colors was brillinat in the extrame, The following is a_complete list of thoso who were present: Messrs, and Mesdames Dudleigh Stewact, W.

Dr. and Mrs. Donald Macrae, jr. About 300 invita- invitations had been issued to the prominent, society people of the two cities and the house was crowaed with those who responded to pay their respects. The house was beauti- fully decorated with flowers ana tropical plants, and Dalbey's orchestra, stationed in tbo hall just beneath the staircase, sent soft music floating through the orilliantly lighted aparuments. ‘The receiving party stood in the front par- lor, which was profusely decorated with roses, smilax, ferns and palms. Dr. Macrae and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Clay Miller of Nemaha, and Dr. Macrae, jr., and wife com- posed the party. Mrs. Macrae was attired in Amnrl gray silk with gold girdle and gold and brillianl passamenterie trimmings, Mrs. Miller wore a dress of changeable silk trim- med with black lace embroldered in pearls, while her paughter, Mrs. Mrerae, jr. was dressed in a lovely gown of white duchess satin with pearl fringe panel and trimmings and carried # mammoth bouquet of white roses. Mrs. J. J. Brown, dressed i black velvet and woaring mouds, Mrs, D. W. Bushuell, dressed in blue crepe, Miss Fannie Reynolds, in white crepe and Miss Nora Brown in white silk embroidered with tace, assisted in en- tertaining the guests. The dining room was a mass of flowers. The center of the table was ocovered with waved cream china silk, and upon this stood the conter piece, a great mound of beautiful white hyacinths and calla lilivs on & bask- ground of ferns and smilax. Directly over- head hung suspended from the chandolier a bell of smilax and white lilies, from which white satin ribbons wera hung to all parts of the table. The sides of the table wers also festooned with swilax. Mrs, F. M. Gault. attired in & gown of pale blue moire silk with amber passamenterie trimmings, served ice cream at one end of the table, whils Miss Babcock of Omaha presided over the coffee urn at the otherin a dress of yellow em- broidered crepe.

The room was elaborately docorated with flowers and illuminatea by the blonded lights of various colored lamps.

The Extent and Profit' of the Bluffs Vineyards. PR | SOME ADVANTAGES OF, ITS LOCATION. Council Wine Producing Rather hibition, but & © sperience of Be Wl What May asily Sken, One of the facts stranger than fiction is that althougn prape culture Is so important an fnterest in Towa the census returns for the state contain no allusion to it. Within a radius of five miles of Council Bluffs 1t 18 estimated that there are 500 acras in grapes, producing an average ot 90 tons and of & valuo of $36,000, IMifty car loads are shipped from here yonrly. A. S.Bonham put out the first regular vineyard in this country, That was 1n 1804, He bad to meet the quite freely oxpressed opinions of many that he was, in plain Juglish, ‘a fool. The courage of his convictions, however, kept him at his vines until he ero long had the satisfaction of seeing public opinion change, and the jingle 1 his pockets was practical proof that the public, and not he, was the fool. Starting the first year with 500 vines, the next year he put in 3,000 more, and so his vineyard grow until it covered fourtoen acres, A. C.Graham was among the first to put out a few vines as was also John Keiler, but on no such extensive scale, and their success was thereford not so no- ticeable. In the early vears Colonel Baboitt had attempted small fruit vaising, but cli- matic and other misfortunes proved serious obstacles to success, and shis had confirmed the public opition, as exprossed in the lead- ing paper of the town at the time, that it was useless to attempt the raising of fruit here, Toe editorials in the old files would read strangoly in the market place of today. Does il pay to raise grapes! If you ask a erocer he will naturally say, 'No, thero isn't the money in it that there used to be. Last sensou the prices were too low. The com- mission men got all the profits. 1t isn’t such @ bonanza as folks think.” M is always a discontented animal, but as soon as the vent is openad long enough to allow the natural grumbling to escave, and oue gets down to facts and figures, it appears thut there is a rich, round profit for the grape grower. The following figures are ohtained from s practi- cal experiencea grape grower in this vicini Cost ot lund per acre 100 00 First year. plants and 1 2) 00 Second y 10 Third year, trel 50 0 £ 18) 0 $ 6525 Cost per acre 811475 After the third year the yiold should be about 6,000 pounds per acre, which at 3 cents # pound would amount to $180. Out of this is to bo deductea for cultivation $10 to §15 an acro and about 25 per cent for basketing, marketing. etc., making,the net returns at loast $120 a year. In other words, the Coun- cit Bluffs grape grower, with average good fortune, ono year with ‘another, can get in cash each year his original investment of $115. In what other business can a mon in- vest 8115 and thereafter, gev a dividend of $120 each year? Arother equally religbl authority places the value of raw land in this vicinity, suita- ble for grape culture, at $00 un acre. He estimates that the timber ¢an be cleared oft and made to pay one-half of the price, thus reducing the actual cost to $100 an acre. The first year's expense for breaking tha ground and for plants,. he puts at §20: the seconde| year at 810 for labor, the year one raises enough grapes to pay for the labor, and also for the expenses of the firsst two years, so that there remains only an invest- ment of $100 an Aera for the land. The fourth’ year oné ‘gets an average yield of three tons, swhich would bring in $180; Tho fifth yeapr..is generally the Iargest crop, probably four tous, or §240, at 3 cents a pound. The cost of the labor would be about £35 an_acre. So it seems by any system of figuring the facts as gathered from the growers them- selves, with the usual shrinkage caused by the aiscontent common to all men, whatever their vocation, grape culture in ‘and about Council Bluffs'is one of the most profitable kinds of tusiness. Even at 2 cents a pound, with an verage yield of three tons to the acre, the grower realizes $110, and if he pays as high as $40 for labor the net earnings of an acre are $50, which is a dividend of 40 per cont, even if the land is worth $200 an coro, Iu'the early years grapes have sold here as nigh as from 15 to 20 cents & pound, but they have gradvally dropped until now the consumer gets them for only a few cents a pound. As a result the the increase of the consumption is great and the producer profits thereby. The ordinary baskets, containing _ten pounds of grapes, cost 3¢ cents each. They weigh ten pounds when filled, and the packer roally put but nino pounds of grapos i them so0 that he gets back nearly the cost of the basket. The most remarkable yield of grapes cited as belag produced in this vicinity was by Mr. Bonham, who seccured ssven and one- half tons to an _acre, three acres bringing in twenty-two and one-half tons, and solling for $3,200 cash—nearly $1,100 an acre. Council Bluffs” {8 'peculiurly adapted for this industry. The hillsides are just what is needed for vineyards, und the soil seoms to have been mixed by nature for this very purpose. The official analysis of tho s0il in these bluffs, as given in the state geological reports, shows that the soil is precisely the same as vhat which along the Rhine, and where the famous vineyards of the old world are planted. Another groat advantage i3 the presenco of a large and growing home market, Omahu and Council Bluffs upited form a metropolis the population of which is close to 200,000 {n number. Then there are the many_ railways contering here, reaching ont in all directions, opening a market the extent of which can hardly be calculated. Certain it is that tbe present yield of 90 tons of grapes ave but a taste for the groat market of which this is the center. The great region north and west looks to these vineyards for tho earliest and the best, and in this markev Council Bluffs bas no successful competitor. Another advantage is that the climatic conditions are such as to cause grapes to mature at least two weeks earlier than they do even on the west side of the river, and still_more early than other sections where one might naturally expect early fruit. In prohibition Ioia the possibility of mak- ing this & wine producing center scoms a little distant, unless the present law is re- pealed, but there is mo doubt but tnat it would ‘prove more profitable to the producer than selling the grapes, It is estimated that it takes from twelve to fourteen pounds of grapes to produce a, gallon of pure wine, which would sell from 00 to 70 cents. In Missouri the growers claim to realize 5 cents a pound for grapes 'by making them into wino. After tho ! Ufirst outlay for collars, otc., the laber of making the wine costs no ,jmore than that of basketing and markoting, so that at 50 cents & gallon the grapg.grower would make even larger profits than he does now. The grape growers, aro also interesting themselves with tho fynit growers In tha establishing of cold storage, by which svs- tem the profits of the. business would bo largely increased. By, having a cold storage warehouse tho growprp, could organize aud arvange shipments, 50 4% 10 maintain a steady market and thus avoig, many of the present disadvantages of being compelied to sell whether the prices syiked or not.

Continuing he sald: “In my judgment we are not violating the law i careying on our business as we do. I am free to coufess that I do not relish any such unequal combat, for the reason that there is a popular prejudico against any corporation of institution which hus tho slightest semblance to & combination, Naturally enough, courts and juries are influenced by these popular prejudices. What 1 dislike more than anything else is that the case is to be brought first before a grand jury, whore only one side of the case is heard and whore we can hope for no favor or show. The liti- gation also kecps the company for the ime being bofore the peoplo in an unfavora- 1o light.”” Mr. Greenhut could not understand the objectof tho people in Atlanta who had written tho letters and were referring the robate certificates to the district attorney, These certiticates had usver been presented for payment, so payment had never been re fused, and ho considered that they were act- ing in the interest of some ono else who de- sired to got tho company in a lay suit with the government. Kor Lils own part he aid not relish the idea of defending this case in the Uuited States courts; still, it must bo fought, for tho rebate systom 1s one of the vital business Interests of the comvany and the issue must ba.carried to a decisive point. g aneggian o) BOX MAKERS' TROUBLES. Trust Every Preparation to Strike Unless Granted Certain Concessions, Cmicaco, Iil, Jan, 9.—A morning paper says thero 1s a prospect that the strike of box makers and sawyers atthe Tegtmier Lumber & Box company may be made gen- oral before the matter is sottled. In this event seventeen large box factories of the city and about 700 wen would be involved in the trouble. Such a strike would also have disastrous effect on the packing industry of the city and on the business of many com- mercial houses which depend on the box factories for their boxes for shipping goods, The trouble originated in the discharge of twelve men somo days ago, the Tegtmier company saying they would not ro-employ the discharged men excopt at reduced wages, alloging that they were incompetent. Thero- upon all the employes were ordered out and did strike to the number of eighty. Then it was found that the company was baving its contracts filled by other factories, aud &t a meetiag of the unton just nheld notice was served on all other manufacturers that union men would not be allowed to work 1 facto- ries filling Tegtmier contracts. A meeting will be held today, when it is expected either a settlement will be effected with the Tegtmier company or a goueral strike of all tho box wakors and sawyers ordered.
