Deputy Sheriff Campbell of Glenwood has
hnuntcd the Bluffs for the past thrco or four
weeks with a persistency that Indicated that
ho wanted something and wanted It bad.
When Interviewed ho always refused to say
very much about thn object of hla visit.
Yesterday afternoon the mystery wns solved
when the deputy rode up to the station ,
having in tow four men , four mules
and two largo loads of oats.
For son.o tlmo past the farmers In the
vicinity of Olcnwood have been the victims
of a trnng of men who have wcro in the hnhlt
of visiting their granaries when the owners
were away , nnd borrowing oats by the wagon-
load , Several weeks no two farmers nnmo
AVIIIlnm Hill nnd Tony flctilcr lost about n
hundred bushels In thl manner. About ten
days ago another similar raid \vasnuulc , nnd
another load of onts was 'ukcn. ' The fr.rmers
thought that kind of business was. getting a
trlllo monotonous , and Mr. Campbell was set
to work to lind the thieves. Tbov wore
traced as far as the Bluffs , and hero the clue
Wfts lost.
Yesterday morning n third visit was made ,
nnd a third load was carried away. When
Mr , Gettloraroso in the morning lie at once
noticed that the thieves had been there again ,
nnd ho started In pursuit , in company with a
nelgtil'Or. Mr. Isaac Warren , At Cilcnwooc.
they notllled Deputy Sheriff Campbell , who
Joined ttio chase. At Island Park , a small
station n few miles below the city , they suc
ceeded In running down their prey , who
turned put lo bo W. P , Meadows and his two
sons , ( Jeotx'o and Victor , and Henry Gllmoro ,
nil of them Oinnhn men. They attempted
a resistance , but they were soon
toned down by the sight of weapons In the
hands of their captors. They wcro brought
up to this city mid lodged in the city Jail until
thev could be taken back to Glen wood for
trial.
It Is said that this thieving has been car
ried on for a long time past bv a well organ-
i/ed gang and that there Is already evidence
enough to captuio and convict the whole
outfit ,

Council Bluffs Carpet company.
A New mercantile. Ot nip nny.
About the tlmo the Eiseman stock was sold
there wns a rumor afloat that a stock com
pany had been organized for the purpose of
bidding in the stock and carrying on the
business at the old stand. On the day of the
sale Benjamin Elscman , who was on the
ground1 In the interest of the new company ,
was served with n number of garnishment
papers , which , If he bad bought up the stock ,
would have landed him squarely In the midst
of something over n dozen law suits. Ho con
cluded not to buy , and from that time to this
nothing hns boon hoard from the company.
Yesterday articles of incorporation were
filed In the ofllco of the county recorder by
the "Council Bluffs Mercantile company , "
the members of which are Uenjumln Klso-
man , 0. F. Wright , J. N. Baldwin. J. F.
Klmball , Ooorgo A. Keellno and Samuel
lhas. { The capital stock l $100,030. This
company is the ono which was formed nt
that tlmo and the articles wcro drawn up
nnd signed then. Mr. Eiseman would not
oonsent to goon with the business , and as ho
was tlio principal stockholder the idea had to
bo given up for the present.
The fact that Mr. Eiicnian has agreed to
let the articles bo tiled Is regarded by many
us an Indication that the old ICIsemim stand
will bo opened ut no distant day as u perma
nent Council Bluffs Institution. Ono of the
local members of the company stated yester
day that the store would be opened Just as
soon as thu law suits above referred to could
be gotten out of the way. How long this
would bo he could not suy , us things in law
are very , very uncurtain , but Ijo did not
hlnk that it would bo a great while ,
When the store is op' > ucd under the now
management it Is suld that , It will be nioro ol
n "genenil store" than bo.'ore. A furniture
and carpet department will probably be
adued , nnd in every wi < v It will bo run * on
strictly metropolitan principles.

tim of a serious accident while coasting yes

where he was enjoying himself happened to
bo adorned with n baru wire fcnoo , which
had been left out of the boy's calculations
when he had tlgured out just how much
excitement , ho was going to huvo
during tha day. Into this fence bo ran , while
his sled was running ui about tbo rate of ve
locity whluh might bo expected from a well
regulated sled. The result was that the boy's
tongue was nearly cut oil from coining into
contact with one of ttio barbs , Dr. Cleaver
was summoned and it was found iiecoisury
to take several stitches In the injured mem
ber lu order to put It in tbo way of recovery.
