Considerable nnxloty was caused the

pearance. Allen hns been cutting timber for
Mr. John Wllcox , who lives cast of thu city.
Friday night ho complained n prent deal nnd
wns apparently In very low spirits. Satur-
dnylio started from his homo onrly In the

A. Favorable Outlook.
"Council Bluffs is ono of the very few
western cities that did not suffer a damaging
reaction from the big boom of three years
ago when the boom epidemic swept over the
country , " remarked a clear-headed real cstnto
man yesterday. "Tho boom had the effect of
increasing values prodigiously , in some
instances several hundiod fold , nnd generally
more than 60 per cent. This added nt once-
several million dollars to the valuation ot
Council Bluffs realty. In not n sin glo i list unco
has tliero boon any recession of values , but on
the contrary n continuous healthy
increase. Considering the fact that
real estate values ore still ridiculously out of
propoitlon to similarly situated property In
Omaha , thcio Is nothing visible in the next
ten years to indicate a halt in this healthy
growth. More than thU , I aw confident now
that we nro on thovorgeof another boom that
will give realty another spurt and create an
other season of remarkable activity. It will
not ho oo wild , perhaps , ai it was In 18S7 , nut
It will nlTett n great amount of property und
last years , whore the other spent Its violent
force In months. The was , llttlo to start
the last boom , llttlo more than the
sudden rcnll/atlon of the owners
of property that tholr Council Illuffs realty
was worth several times more than they had
been In the habit of asking for It , but the
coming boom which 1 am predicting there
nro permanent foundation1 ! to build upon ,
Then \\o had a , vague promise that wo were
to bo connected with Omaha by the drive
ways to ho attached to the Union Pacific
bridge and tlio hrlclinito promise of another
exclusive thorouphfaio bridge. Now wo
have tbo bridges and the absolute certainty
of two more. These now Inidgcs alone will
bo sufficient to mvuko'ii as much ac
tivity as the old ones did , but wo
have a great deal more than that
The railroad complication resulting from Mr.
Gould's decision of tlio crossing problem and
the prevention of the low.i roads carrying
out their original Intentions Is nil in the in
terest of Council Bluffs , while the great en
terprises that are being inaugurated on CUt-
oft island nro still moro so. I am .satisfied
that the next two or three years will sou the
establishment thcro of many millions of del
lars' worth of manufacturing enterprises ,
nnd taking out of consideration the question
of whether East Omaha lies entirely or only
partially lusldo the Council Bluffs city
limits , tliU will directly benefit Coun
cil lllutTs whllo not hurting Omnlin.
The Interstate bridge will bo built and
ready for tralllc within two years , nnd It will
lie entirely In this city. Tbo day that bridge
is opened every lot nnd every acre of prop
erty lying In the northwestern part of town
will Increase lu value live or six times Its
present price. This will affect nil contigu
ous pronorty nnd start n boom. The Twin
City bridge and railway give it still greater
Impetus , and It will bo a boom of no mean
proportions.
"Another thing worth considering is the
fact that more than one-half the city of
Council Bluffs lies within thrco miles of tho.
business center of Omaha , AVIth plenty of
bridges and cheap fines this property will
command Omaha prices , "
Recollect that the only Installment house

quiring you to pay rash wo lot you have it oof

Tin : llni : not full well know that for six years

Bnc.j The superintendent of public Instruc
tion , Mr. A. 1C. Ooudy , comes to the front in
a llttlo fly sheet which has been placed on
the desks of the legislator * nnd which sots
forth the fact that he , too , wants some tnoro.
Ho prints a table in which ho shows the ap
propriations which have been made for the
pasulxtccn yours for the sup port of the of
fice which ho now controls ,
In 1875 , ho says the stnto allowed 1,500 for

there were only 2,403 school districts in the

The appropriation for 1SS9 was but f3,575 , ,
with 0,00'J ' school districts and a school popu
lation of 310,803.
Mr. Qoudy laments that the appropriation
for his onico hat not Increased in the saino
rations has the number of school distilcts
and the ochool population of tlio state. lie
then dissertutos upon the fact that the most
unpleasant work of the superintendent is
outside the walls of his olllco in Lincoln
visiting schools , institutes , associations ot
teachers In thn state and other states , con
sulting with touchers , learning by actual In
spection what U being dona in other states in

Ho says further tlmt It Is for such work
that his oflleo exists , mid that It is such
work which can nlono Justify Its existence ,
nnd that hl predecessors wcw subjected to
adverse criticism for not attending it , not
withstanding that they bad been tied to their

A Itathcr Kvcitlnjj Meeting Held nt
Iilnuoln Yesterday.
LINCOLN1 , Nob. , Fob. 14. [ Special to TUB
BEE. ] The meeting nt Ked lilbbon hall
today was moro exciting than on nny previous
Sunday since the opening of the legislature.
The woman suffragists nro ettroinoly well
pleased by the vote In the house which
placed their bill on general lllo and como out
in full force. After several regulation
speeches had been made , Representative
Nowberry of Hamilton was called out and
proceeded to state his vlewson the subject m
a Jinn and gentlemanly \vny. Among other
things ho said that ho traveled over Wash
ington territory when woman suffrage pre
vailed and found saloons In abundance ,
nnd questioned whether the morals
of the people would bo improved if women
voted. These remarks were the signals for
nn outburst such as has been seldom wit
nessed. Men hooted nnd jeered , and gray-
haired women nnd young girls hissed the
speaker until the nolso fairly drowned his
volco.
The remainder of the meeting was taken
up by Mrs. King and others , who launched
forth on a wild tirade of abuse nnd denunci
ation seldom heard nt a political gathering ,
much less at a seml-rcliglous meeting on Sun
day.
It is the opinion that they injured their
cause very much by tholr unreasonable and
intolerant' conduct , and it is doubtful if the
members of the legislature , except Porter ,
Scott , Modio nnd a few other independents
who have deserted their party and ROUO over
to the prohibitionists , can bo prevailed upon
to attend the meeting ? in the future.
LciiHliitivo KuIioeN.
Speaker Elaor has Introduced a bill to pro
hibit liuo passes to all except railroad em
ployes. The bill makes the giving or accepting
of a free pass or ndo by any one , with the
exception noted above , a misdemeanor , pun
ished by a line not exceeding § 500. The
speaker will push his bill very earnestly nnd
says no bollovcs It will bccomo a law.
Representative Storm ( Ind. ) of Nemnhn
made n very strong and convincing speech In
opposition to dropping the contest against
Cnurch Howe. Ho said the people , of Noma-
1m county had como horo. and asked permis
sion to bring witnesses before the committee
on privileges nnd elections and prov < 3 that
money had been used m that county to cor
rupt the electors and bribe men to vote for
Howe. They professed to have plenty of
testimony to substantiate their charges , nnd
in all fairness they ought to have a rlgUt to
do so ; that to adopt the minority report
would not vindicate the sitting member , but
would deny a ripht to the contestants guar
anteed to them by the constitution nnd the
laws , nnd which are in accordance with the
principles of equity nnd justice.
The nouso committee on constitutional
amendments hns.fltially decided by a vote of
0 to 3 to recommend thnt nil fees derived
from saloon licenses shall bo turned Into the
general school fund of the state and taken
away from the educational fund of the munici
palities that grant the licenses. The sub
ject will bo presented in the form of a consti
tutional amendment.
Two sessions were held on Saturday , as
usual ,
Representative Herman of Saline often
presides , at the request of Speaker Elder ,
and makes a very acceptable presiding olll-
cor.
cor.The woman sulTrngo bill was placed on the
general flic , by special request of Its ndvo-
cates nnd by the votes of nearly twenty mem
bers who are unalterably opposed to the
measure.

duced a bill providing that the state shall In

Gcnernl Appropriation lllllH In a AVell
Advanced Suite.
WASHIXCITO.N' , Feb. 15. The energy dis
played by congress during tlio past wceK lu
ictlon upon the general appropriation bills
lias had the result of placing thcso measures
In a state of forwardness that compared fa
vorably with the record of tbo preceding
congress In the short session. The copy
right bill Is unfinished business before the
senate. Hall has stated his Intention to call
up the diplomatic appropriation bill tomor
row , but as the friends of the copyright bill
nro confident that the measure is in such
shape that it cannot consume much
moro tlmo , Itwill probably bo brouirht
to a llnal vote before the diplomatic
bill Is taken up. The republican CAUCUS list
of measures selected for consideration In in
tervals between discussion on appropriation
bills is as follows : Indian depredations bill.
Nicaragua canal bill , Paddock pure food and
Conger lard bills , nrmy reorganization bill ,
intcr-stato commerce bill , land court bill ,
bankruptcy bill , revenue miirino bill and the
Pacific funding bill. How far In thU pro
gramme the senate may proceed will depend
on the amount of tlmo occupied by the appro
priation bills.
In tbo house it is confidently expected thut
by the end of the week the goncrnl
doilciency bill will bo the only
ono of the regular annual bills
unacted on. It is the intention to finish con
sideration of the Indian hill tomorrow , and it
has bocn arranged that the postofllco nnd ag
ricultural appropriations bills shall follow in
the order named. The shipping bill , which
for about two weeks remained pending as
unfinished business , will then bo again
brought up.
The silver question still remains the most
absorbing topic of discussion among members
of the house and there Is a constant fear on
the part of the conservative members thnt It
may at some unexpected time bo sprung upon
the house in an unlooked-for shapo. The
silver men are confident thnt tbo bill will bo
reported to the house before the end of the
\vcelr , nnd the republican caucus which has
been called for tomorrow may hnvo some in
fluence on the course to bo pursued iu regard
to this measure by the majority.

A MISSIONARY SPOOK.
Interest in Ungodly Young Alon
Cnnsea Restlessness for a Glmst.
Lewis C. Boston , nn exemplary young1
mnii died lust Thanksgiving day , and on
liis death bed declared that ho yet hoped
to sco a number of young men of the
neighborhood turn into bettor paths.
BIIVS a Carthage 111. , dispatch to the
Now Yorlc Herald. As Aut Wright
was feeding his horses nt the barn nn
apparition appeared which looked liltoa
man. AVrlfflit shouted nnd It dis
appeared. Sunday night young- Wright
was returning from church , and whllo
ho wns passing a lonely strip of road a
form dressed , in long white robes stopped
out of the hedge fence into the road in
front of the her es. The animals roared
nnd plunged , but the spook caught each
ono by tlio bridle niln saying : "Whoa ,
Charlie ! Whoa , Frank ! "
The animals scorned to recognize tholr
names , for they sank down on tholr
haunches and trembled with four. The
apparition then climbed upon the
buggy tongue and walked along until
the dashboard was readied , then It said :
"Why , Aut , don't you know Lewis
Boston ? Shiiko hands with me. "
Wright , though terribly frightened ,
took the proffered hand , and said it was
cold and clammy ns that of a corpse.
Wright then attempted to drive his
team along , hut the epook said , "Wnttl i !
I want to talk with you , and if you will
only listen to mo a moment I will never
bother you again. "
"Wright says ho sat alongside of Jtho
horrid apparition , which ho swears wns
the dead body of Lewis Boston , which
had returned to life. The spook do-
llvorod messages to loved ones nnd
friends , mostly of a religious nature.
Wright has so far refused to repeat
whnt Boston's spook , told him.
Finally the spook , said : "Au t , I must
go back. I nm callqfl. Oh , I must , ! ItO
back ! Don't you Jioar the angels cal 1-
Ing ? Goodbyl" Aud the spirit van
ished. "
Last night whilo' Wright wns doing
chores nround thojbnVn tt o same appari F.
tion appeared. . "Go away , " cried
Wright , "I don't.yrant to see youl Go
away , 1 toll youl"
"I want to say 'just ' one moro word , "
said the spirit.
iI don't ' want tti see youl" cried
Wright , and in dc'spqration ho throw a
Blnglotroo at thft object. The missile
passed through It as though the body
were a mist. The long white robed thing
moved nway weeping bitterly nnd cry
ing : "I want to sty ono moro word. "
Jt is now stated that Mr.s. Andrew
Wright , mother of Aut Wright , who
has been oulto ill several weeks , was the
first victim of the apparition. She was
in the barnyard ono evening about
three woolc'a ngo , when bho WUBhoard to
utter the most piercing screams. She
wns found prostrate in un Insensible
condition and removed to the houso.
Delirium followed , In which she mut
tered the name of Louis Dnston roneat-
cdlv , The lady Is still qulto side.
The apnonninco of the uppariton has
caiibcd 'tho most intense excitement
through all the eastern portion of the
country. Houbon Bo.tton , father of the
dead boy , was seen by a boy this evening -
ing , lie is n well-to-do and intelligent
farmer.
"Do you bollovo this to ho your boy %
Mr. BobtonV" ho was asked.
"J bollovo It is Louts. JIo was a good
boy nnil ho hnil the welfare of Ills young
frloiiila nt heart. I wish Aut Wright
would tell you whnt Louis told him , so
you cnn print It. I bollovo ho hns won
derful things to toll. "
"lltivo you ever BOOH Iho nnpnrltlon ? "
"No ; but it must bo Louts.1' '
The strange thing Is nil the topic ot
conversation In Cnrtlmgo , nnd future
visitations from the spook nro nwaltud
with great interest.
IMnylne With Death.
The llfo of the Mission Indian iniitilcti
la not altogether n happy ono , especially
If eho is pretty , judging from tlio fnto
which befell n comely daughter of the
trlbo at Mesa Grntido recently , says the
San DIego Union. A loiter received
here from ono of tlio moat reliable resi
dents of that district relates a thrilling
and barbarous incident. The corrcs-
, pendent says :
"In the autumn after the harvest Is
ever , the Indians liold this fearful orgy
human sacrifice. Eich : clan by itself ,
at the burial place of itsown trlbo , gnth-
ors In from nil the country round and
proceed to frighten uwny the 'evil
spirit' by olTorlng a human sacrifice to
the ( V > ds , the sacrifice always
consisting of the most comely
young mtitdon belonging to the
clnn. This was practiced here recently.
In . . this cnso It was a young clrl about
thirteen yours of ago , whoso fuco was
nearly us white us my own , whoso long
tresses would hnvo graced the hotid of a
qucon. She has been attending nt ono
of the white schools in the nolghbo v
hood for several years and Is us well ed
ucated as the average countr inaidon -
at ago as f.u1 as school books go.
"But , nlas. when she is at homo , she Is
hthat hotbed of vice , the Indian rnn-
oorin , nnd all the outside Inlluonco
nunts for nnuglit in counteracting the
pernicious Influences which surround
her thcro. A hugo flro was built and
the xisual preliminaries of groaning ,
chanting , flat-footed stamping , and all
that sort of jugglery that is common on
such occasions were gone through with
in extra fervor on this occasion , and
whllo this was iu progress the llro had
burned down and lost its fiercest heat.
"Whon it reached this stage a pile of
very green brush brought and thrown
upon the lire , making the most Winding
smoke you can Imagine , and while this
is at its height Iho maiden is bound , n
(1B blanket Isthrown over the smoldering
smoldering green brush , and amid the
most demoniacal cries and shouts she is
thrown thereon and the whole mad
crowd vie with each other in piling
brush ever her until , in this case , it was
as hie'i ' and broad as a squatter's cabin.
Of course nil this brush is green , nnd is
not calculated to really cremate the girl ,
but only como as near to it ns they dare.
Tlio smoke is enough to kill anyone but
nn Indian , and if the pile should blaze
up , as green brush sometimes does ,
nothing could save her from instant
death. It was n terrible sconn , and all
this in the midst of a civilized commun
ity thut Is constantly subscribing to for
eign missions. "

The humble but inspiring mescal Is
derived from suuh Imposing scientific
terms ns the aguavo Americano , inngupy
and American aloe , says the Plucnix
Herald. lu his report to Agricultural
Secretary Husk , Special Agent Poston
of this city says the plant is n species of
tlio numerous family eicti indigenous to
Arizona , Southern Cullfornio , Texas ,
Now nnd old Mexico. The Aztecswhon
found by the Spaniards , used the plant
for cordugo , matting , brooms , brushes ,
shoos , bedding and various domestic
purposes. They roasted the pulp for
food and fermented the juice into
"pulquo. " .The latter has been im
proved by modern civilization into that
strong but not repulsive drink called
mescnl.
The maguey plant miiturcs in seven
years , becoming cabbage headed in
shape , with prickly guards. It weighs
from twenty-fivo to lifty pounds. The
various layers , ns ronsted by the natives ,
nro nutritious and purgative. The
pulquo is fermented In a rawhide vat. j
The City of Mexico drinks SJO.OOO pint
of pulque dally , or a pint per capita
which ratio prevails generally through
out Mexico , being the national beverage
like wine in Franco , beer in Germany o
' budge" in Yankccdom.
Mescal llowers make excellent lionoy.
Deer nnd antelope seek them eagerly.
The stock of the plunt grows twelve to
twenty foot high , nnd is used in Mexi
can domestic architecture. Mescal dis
tilleries nro very simple , and more
secret thiin nny moonshiner's still.
Maguey lias be-on iminomorially culti
vated in olu Mexico , but is not raised
north of that lino.
In Arizona for twenty-five years post
mescal lias averaged $2.50 per gallon
now , with $1 added for each jour of
maturity. A higher grade article is
cnllcd tequila , and is worth $10 per
gallon.

Tlio American Girl.
After much observation of the woman of
many countries , writes Mrs. John Sherwood
n Harper's Bazaar , the conclusion is iuovlln/
hie that the freedom ot early girlhood , the
looking upon men as brothers , friends and
honorable gentlemen , the being thrown on
one's own good scnso as a guide , above all ,
being trusted by father and mother , nud
lover , not being suspected or watched by a
"black mesour" or a too suspicious duenna

San Francisco Call , "I wiw not long 10o ;
in Texas ono of the most peculiar gamed
I over -witnessed In all my experience. 3dI
dropped into a town in the western part
of the state nnd found everybody In ita
state of unusual excitement. From
stray remarks dropped I surmised thnt ina
big game of Fomolnnd was in progress ;
bo ns soon as I had secured a room at the
hotel nnd had removed the marks of
travel from my clothes I began to make
inquiries , I was told that a game of
marbles for $1,000 a .side was being
pi lived on the plaza , and thut it wnuthon

that they had boon 'plumping for the
