NOVI [EFFECT OF “TRE ELECTION SUND Wenamaker's Advics to Fut Your Money Tuty Réal Bstate, THE SITUATION N COUNCIL BLUFFS Wise Mome Secke Are Sharp Investors Py Grasp- s and but L Ing Barg Quietly WasmiNaroxy Brneav or Tne Beg, ) FOURTEENTH STREET, WasHiNGroN, D, C., Nov. 10, “Put your idle money inta good real estate is what Postmaster General Wanumaker said today while discussing the outlook in view of the democratic administration. Mr. Wanamaier, who prime h ness man - and who traveled over Indianu and some other states and made republican specclos luring the campaign, is one of those who boliove that capital will bo wary of manufucturing intarests till it is scon what the democratic congress will do in the way of new tariff, and that where- ever and whenever money is withdrawn from the common chinuels of trado real estato nppreciates in value. The snme view is entertained by Hon, L. T\ Micheaer of Indiann, who is a cor- poration lawyer here and has much to do with manufacturers, ‘1 believe thi desivable real estate will now advance in value und more rapidly than at the withdrawal of capital from manufictuve ing. ehipping and other business inter- ests,” said Mr. Michener to Tuer Brg espondent today, “*Manufacturing intervests will be at a standstill until the new congress revises the tarifl, That will be at least eighteen months from this time. The now congress will con- vene thirteen months hence and it can- not act finaliy upon so vast a measure ns a tarifl bill under five or six months after it convenes, Men will be chary about lending money on long time, and for temporary or permanent investient Will prefer to put itinto good real estate, The above, whic peared in ThHe BEE, was the themo of discussion by a hittle knot of citizens, who chanced to meet in the real estate oftice of shields, Nicholson & Co. That is of natural center for real est ion, and the above opinion of noted men concerning veal estate pros- pects commanded attention, Put your idle money into good real estate,” is pretty sound advice from My Wanamaker,” " remarvked Alderman Mayne, who isone of the firm. “Neither mySelf or my partue:s lay any claim to such smartness as Waunamaker's, but we've been preaching this doztrine for some time, without any regard to poli- cies. [t does scem’ to me that it is espocially true right here in Council Blutfs, where property is so low and advance is o sure. It's simply ridiculons to think of nice residence lots selling at a few hundred when no bettor luts and no nearer to the cen- ter of Ov aoare seliing at as many thousand. The equalization is bound to come, end theso who are sharp enough to put their money in at present pric are just as sure of winning ns Cloveland is to be the next president.” One of the bystanders remarked. 1 heard Judson, the sngineor, say, vight after eloction. that he considered every acre of lund owned by him in lowa us worth §5 an acre more than it was be- fore election.” “Well, we'ra not talking politics now- a-days, but it does not matter what it ie orhow it ig, s0 long as the fact remain that the shrewdest business men and in- vestors are predicting a general increase of activity it real estate, and a groatad- vance in pric Council Bluffs gives every promise of adding a local advance and increase of activity to the general effect. Wanamaker and Michener are pretty wise rophets, and whatever may be the result elsewhere, I am certain that Council Biuffs is already feeling the offect of incrensed activity in real estate. Wo are daily having inquiries from home-seckers fiom Omaha, We cannot get houses enough to mect the demunds of those who want to rent, und we are being kept busy all around. Wo saw the revival coming and we prepare for it by gathering up tho largest list of real bargain property which any real estate firm ever had in this city and we are putting ou customers onto all ‘the snaps,” becuuse we know that as they make . nice turn, as they surely will, they will want another deal. But what satisfies us best is that the bulk of our 235 NOW s not from mere speculators but those who want to own homes of their own. We can starta man with a uice lot, or a houso and let, and fix things 50 that he can swing 1t with but little money. Such deals combine all the advantiges of a savings bank with a chance to profit by speculation. A man puys rent into nis own pocket and at the same time gots the advantage of all the rise that comes in value, The increasing num- ber oi these class of customers is what really gives us more faith in our future and the future of Council Blufis than all the roseate pictures of speculators ov vrophetic politicians, You can set it down that Greenshields, Nicholson & Co. are in the real estute business L and here to stay. Our business is daily incrensing and we've not got fair started either.

This road hugeed the banks of the Susquehan na river from end to end, and there wasn't aspot on the eative division of forly miles that it wasn't almost sure death to leave the rails. Wreel curred on an average of onee o week and were always followed hy seve fatalities. T'he ‘station she s located at was near immense lime- stone aquarries wherein some haif a hun- dred ltulians were emploved. About 100 feet above the station was a 100-foot trestle spanning w small stream at ordi- nury times, but on the day in question greatly swollen and vory swilt ns it emptied into the river at 1hat point. A blast had just been fived of unusual force and an immense reek landed di- rectly on tho trostle, tearing it apart in the center, the swift water washing away the debris and leaving a gap in the rails of about twenty-five feet. The viver vus very high at that poini, and the small boats that were handy could not he prope'led against the swift cor- rent. The nearest bridze on the little streain over which the trestle was stretehed wes some three milos distant. Miss Runsom saw thy mischicf done by the rocs and immediately rushed out and told the superintendent of the Ital- ian gang to send . man or go himsolf around the wreek and stop a train that was due from the north in about half an hour. The superintendont was an [tal- inn, with a =matteriag of English, an d he failed ontirely tosee the gravity of the situation, The only wire that ran along the rod had been stretched oa tho testle for economy’s sake and had been broken with the trestle, sot no communica- tion with the novth could be had. Miss Ransom tried to tell the [talian the teas situation. but he only smiled, and with ashrug of his shoulders wna o grimace walked back into the quarry und i sumed his oversecing. Miss Ransom hesituted but a minute to ask 1f any one in the crowd could swini, and, recciving a negative answer. do cided, with the aid or a planc, to try crossing tho riv The Ttalions in their impetuous way tried to persuunde her not to attempt the swollen waters, but with the decision of a true heroine who realized the danger tho oncoming train was in she cautiously pushed the plank into the water and with w quick movement followed it The brave giil had gntered the water some distance above the brd trestle in the hope of gaining the opposite shore somo distance before that point should be reached, as to e carried out into the river meant almost certain death, The Italians euncour dh with shouts of praise, but eadouvor as she would to work her way out of the current in midstream, but little head- way was made, Down stream the brave girl was car ried with a swiftness that told plainer than words that her struggles wore fruitloss, As she neared the broken trestle, inch by inch she worked ithe plank over toward the northern side, and as she was within a few feet of thut structure she abandoned the plunk and struck out with one forlorn hope of reaching it vnnided. Her foresight and strength proved stanch Jqualifications, As she was being carvied past the pro- jecting und splinteved trestle Miss 1tan som gave one t long sweep of her rms and was enabled to grasp a heavy plece of timbe Slowly and laboriously the heroine worked her way out of the water and up through the tr as her strength commenced to show s of waning, and finally reached the top. Ior only u few seconds did she hesitate Lo gusp for breath and regain strength when the noise of the incoming treain could be heurd and a fe nds la dushed into view. The wild gesticulations of the brave girl caught the attention of the engineer almost instantly, the brakes were applicd and the train brought to & standstill right on the cu've aud in sight of the broken trestle, Without any quiver in her voice Miss Ransom told the engineer of the mishap in a matter-of-fact way, without any em- bellishments, veluted "her expariencs in trying to prevent tha train from going | through the trestie into the rive Th s ed by the girl’s matter-of-fact bravery, and crowded around her and almost hugged her in enthusiasm and thunkful- ness.
