Ho rvoported the case to the city marshal about 2 o’clock but in the meantime the thief had all the opportumty he could have asked for to get to Nebraska. Hartz said he had a wife five children at home who would anxigusly await his veturn, and b sent a messago to them to send biw 15 cents at once 8o that ho could came home. ENTERPRISE PLACE, A Phenom 1 Mo Suburban Real Es- tute by Mr. Toft. Located wichin easy renching distance of both Omaha and Council Blufls is the celebrated farm, formerly owned by Judge Scott, now of Omaha, and con- tuining about 40 acres. Whatever may be thought of Judge Scott's eccen- t icitics on the bench he certainly showed sound judgment in pizking out this tract of land for a country home. it being onc of tl most beautiful and highly fertile uacts in all of western Towa. On his re- moval 1o braska he sold th farm to Mr. M. Toft, who is equally well known as a capitalist and successful business man. There has been no at- tempt to sell property in that vicinity. much less any attempt to boom _it, and yet there has grown up ademand which has become so_strong -that after much consideration Mr, Toft has decided to do the very thing he has up to this time steadily refused to do—plat aportion of the Innd in five and ten-acre lots and offer it for snle. This opens up o rare opportunity for those who want to sccure suburban homes with ample facilities for gardeon and frait. The location is y lisr in that it combines all the advan tages and convenionces of the eity, th the comforts and quiet of the coun- A neat little church is already \blished there, the daily papars are delivered there each morning, and two s aday are already established. Tt takes but twenty minutes to reach the electric motor line, ko that in forty minutes one can reach the center of Omaha Mr. Toft himself has for three years been doing business daily in Omahy, poing over every morning and returning every evening, so that the practicability of such an ar- rangement is no longer an experiment. Pruit growers and gardeners at even a further distance on that road take their products to Omaha every morning. There is a fine high level and firm, and the drive is a beautiful one. The scarcity of such proporty, and the won- derful advantages of this peculiar loca- tion, will make the property sell like hot cakes, and the prospect is that an important suburb will spring up there almost as if by magic. The wonder- ful prosperity and steady prolits guined in fruit growing and garden- ing in the vicinity of Council Blufls makes it practically a certainty that any oue can muke big money from one of these lotsin Lnterprise, while for home purposes the attractions are no less great. Mv. Toft’s move 1s looked upon by real estate men as the most im- wt one which has oceurred for Ho has placed the exclusive cement of the sale in the handsof those experts, Greeenshields, Nicholson & Co., and business is evidently meant from the very start., They say thero will be no difficulty in placing the lots, and it secms that there will be a short- age, rather than a surplus, as only 200 acres will be thus offered for sale, which only givesan opportunity for forty per- sons to secure five acres each.

There never has been a larger crowd at the Boston Store or any other store in Council Blufs at any tima in its his tory than gathered there yesterday There were two attractions, a'glove and sonp sale. It opened 1n the morning with the finest castile soap to be had in | the market solling for lc a cake and gloves at corresponding prices. The crowd filled the store and the various bargains were snappad up as quickly as the clerks could hand them oute In the afternoon, however, the proprietors concluded to add little to the excitement and reduced the price of soap to five bars for a cert. This suited the crowd immensely, and in hall an hour the sidewalk wus block was blocked. At 3 o'clock another move was made that created an uproar little short of ariot. It was the announce: ment that every lady in the store anl every one that could getin would be given ten cakes of soap froo, Thisan- nouncement was apparently spread by telephone, and evorybody seemed to bo seized with the™ belief that the one thing they needed most in this world was soap, and they came in platoons to get it. Many ludicrous things oceurred. One womn who by un oversight of the clerk only re- coived five enkes becamo loud in her complaints until she veceived the other five. During the aftarnoon the im- mense quantity of 14,400 cakes of castilo purity were given away, enough to wash the whole town. The crowd that wanted soup had no respect for the handsome Tincoln monument, but laughingly as- sisted in tearing it down and carried away the bricks of soap of which it was composed. There is no doubt but that wus the greatest sale of the kind ever run in the city. FRUITS AND VL ABLES. he Annual Meetir Count Tho fruit growers and gardeners of Potta- wattamio county met in annual session yesterday afternoon at theic rooms in the court house, Tho program, as already pub- lLished, was carried out, the papers read being very nteresting. The desired discus- sion was limited, owing to ume being short. The election of ofticers resulted as follows : Presidont, Alex Wood; vico president, Sam- uel Avery: socretary, B. H. Sylvester; treasurer, B. S, Porter; executive commit- tee, B. S, Porter, 0. J. Smith, L. O. Wil- liams, t. C. Raymond, B. A, Bonham. Arrangements wero made for having the socloty represented at the annual meeting of the Western lowa Horticultural society, which Is to be held at Corniug, December 13, L. O. Williams of this city is the president. Oue important matter was brought up by President Wood yesteraay, it bewg the ity of orgamizing a grape-growers shipping company. In a carefully prepared paver ho showed how that for several years past the prape shippers bad been at the mercy of the middle men, commission men and others. He held that it grape growing wais to be carried on here at s profit in tho future some mothod must be adopted whereby the producer and consumer could be brought mnearer each other. He scouted the idea that such au organization would tend to increase the price of grapes to consumers, and illustrated his claim by cit- ing tho caso cf a Laskot of grapes which was traced this fall from a Council Bluffs vine- vard o Denver, where the consumer paid 45 cents for it. When the caturns came in the grower got 1S cents forit. Here was a dif- ference of 27 ceuts. If tho grape grower could got 10 conts out of this 27 conts one could afford to drop on the price to tho cou- sumer and still be ahoad. It was stated that withiu a few weeks pre- liminary steps would be taken to organize such a society. ~ Mr. L. O. Williams gave a vory interest- ing nistorical roview of tho socioty, with an urgeat appeal for moro iuterest and a better attendance. The society was organized four years ago, A. S. Bonham being elected presi- dent and M. E. Myers secretary. Fourteen charter membors were enrolled, and tho lis increased to fifty before the close of the first year. Numerous creditable displays had been mude each year, one at tho Blue Glass palace at Creston. The farmers congress had been entertanod hero and an exhibit maao ut that time. The Milis County society had been entertained heve, and the Western iowa society also, e ] : Ben flur.

In accord- anco with Gould's w.shes everything in con- uection with the funeral will.be very plain, Tho mystery as 1o the ailment which wrecked Mr. Gouid’s health was one feature of his last lness. Mv, Gould was a vietim of neuralgia and nervous dyspepsia, aud tho announcement that the cause of his death was cousumption will be recewved with n great deal of surprise. But the statement 1strue, Iv is further said that tho diseaso was of several vears standing; that Mr. Gould was aware that he had it ana his in- structions to his physician, Dr. Munn, were that it should be kKept a secret between them as long os possible. 'The secret was woll kept, and until & couple of weeks ugo Mr. (ould is said to have had confidence that Dr. Munuo’s cfforts to delay the progress of the diseaso would be attended with somo measure of success and that he would bo able to keep up and get around for somc years, Butwhen he ceme down from Iry- ington some weeks ago be was not so confi- dent. A slight hemorrhage was followed by several moi *‘Every oue must realize,” said Russell Sage, “that in Jay Gould’s death the country has sustained a loss which is irroparable He was universally acknowledged 10 bo one of the leading minds of the age. No one has dono so much as he in the development of the resources of the country and the splen did railways constructed and mumtaincd by him will ever be regarded as monuments o his genius and energy.” Dr. Chauncey M. Depew said: “Mr. Gould’s death will have little or no effect on the stock markets. Ho was foo sharp a business man to make uuy mistuko about the future. He told me eight weeks ago that his affairs were all aajusted and should he drop dead at any time his business was so arranged that his sous could take charge of his interest at once. Henry Clews said: “Jay Gould has un- doubtedly.been one of tho wouders of the world. Abrormally great among money af- fairs, be had many” goed qualities. Ho was generous o a tault, and was invariably true 10 his friends, but bitter und unforgiving to his enemies. Much of the spread of railroad transportation 1s duo to his remarkablo entorprise, sagacily and organization avility.” Dr. Norvin Green would 1ot wmake an esti- mate of Mr. (Gouid’s woalth, but he said: I Know that Mr. Gould held £20,000,000 worth of Missouri Pacific, $20,000,000 of Manhattan Elovated railroad and §20,000,000 of Western Union. He always bad great faith in these companics and told me some time ago that be wanted them to be retuined in his estate. He believed that Missouri Pacific stock would go up to !20, Western Union to 130 and Manbattan to . It was alwavs his iden that<his part of his fortune should uot be dissipated. I do kaow tbis in regard to Mr. Goula: He never ca d a dollar's worth of-life insurauce in his life.” Ex-Judge John F. Dillon, who was Mr. Gould’s contidential lawyer for many years, and who i85aid to have made up his will, said: **Yes, there isa will. Ican tell you that. I know that personally. But Iamuot able to tell you anything more about it.”” Ihe Tribuno says: *Itis the impression that Mr. Gould’s political sympathies duriig tte recent campaign were largely with the democrats, Heis suid to have sent smail contributions o the republicun fund. Some politicians piace the amount contributed by Mvr. Gould to Cleveland’s campaigu as high as §250,000. Honoring Mis Memory.

The dircctors of tho Western Uuion moet this wmoraing and adopted and placed on record a stutement sotting forth tho salient features in his hife and the points which contriouted to his suc- cess.
