and Carlo don Pcrriorco , who ainonf

strong confirmation to this vlow of the
matter.
In both Italy and Spain duela ara frequent

unud to the nlmost complete exclusion o :
the small sword. Indeed , the prejudice
againot the latter arm in so strong ir
Italy thnfit is r.ll but imposniblo to lint
aoconds who rrill consent to act in a duel

\vhilo a fatal issue is rnro.tho ugly gashce

Throughout Germany , including I'rua-
sin , A us triii and the minor utatcg , a very
tlillbront rule prevnilu. With the execu
tion of the oft-doBcribcd "Schlacor"
duels among university students , whicb

civilians are punished with considerable
severity , the ordeal of u single combal
being a privilege practically reserved for
the army. In tlio event of two ollicers
Falling out a court of honor
[ Ehrougorloht ) , generally composed oi

by the colonel of their regiment or thu
general commanding the district , euro-
fully ihvcstlgatoa the vrholo alfair aut
decidoa whether an apology shall be
tendered and accepted , or wliothorfju
encounter in nocpssary. Tlio doclsion oi
the court in iinal , and any olli-
cor refusing to comply with it would bo
jompollod to retire from the service ,
while any duel unauthorized by the court
would invariably load to the cashiering of
Iho oH'ondera. Pistols are almost invar
iably used , at a distance of twelve pacoa ;
ind , Gorman oliicors being as u rulu very
{ oed shots , fatal consequences are not
Infrequent. By a strange anamoly , the
, 'ordlct of the Ehrcngoricht does not en :
: iroly cover the responsibility of the com-
jatanta lu * the event of a fatal
osuo , the survivor is llablo to sutler a

given signal , and tire tit will. Should
no of them iiro and inisa , hi.i adversary

ave been known in which a duellist ,

oot Pushkin was killed in a duel r. la
.irrioro , after uevcroly wounding his an-
igoniat.
In the Baltic provinces a system pro.
ails which at first sight appimrn uvon
lore murdorous. The adversaries are
laced only thrco paces apart ; the pistols
ro huld with the mur/.io pointing up-
rard , and are brought down and dis-
hargcd nt a given signal. It may ap-
ear almost impossible for two men to
lies onch ether at so short a distance- ,
ut this is not the caso. Kaoh of the

hat the bullola bury themselves in the
rpund. At a duel fought last year at
Uga between uu olllcor and a student in
hia fashion , three shots wcro exchanged
rithou t any result , while at the fourth
liecharno the student had the great too
t his right foot cut clean ell' by hia oppo-
leuta bullet. '

Everything the farmer has to sell Is
cry low , o very thlnir , or at least nearly
ivorything , that the farmer has to bay is
omparativoly high. Wheat over a largo
iroportlon of the region in which it is
irmluct'U brines the raiser but GO cents
tor bushel. The price of grain harvest-
rs and self binders , however , remain the
amoas when wheat was worth a dollar n
malicl lu the place \rhero it was rained.

decline in farm product's , The prlco o
cloth is not affected appreciably by thi
fill In wool. A farmer may got a srual
price for the hideo ho has to dispose of
but he pays n high prlco for the boots
shoce , and harness that ho ia obliged it
purchase. Potatoes ara chonp , but thi
bags in which they are put in the wagoi

Formerly the prlco of articles rtqniree
for food governed the price of almost nl
other articles. The price of nlmost ever ;
thing was governed by that of wheat , ai
that waa regarded as the ruoet importan
of oil producta. All this ia changed now
Farmers have nothing to do in roqulatlm
prices. They take what la oll'ered fo
their producta. They are too numorou
and too widely scattered to combine
Thu price of nearly ovury article they an
obliged to purchast > , hov7over , is regulate *
by associations and combinations formei
among manufacturer ; . The mannfac
turora of nearly every important articl
combine to limit production and to koo ;
up prices. They oven combine to pre
vent the establishment nf nianufactorlo
similar to their own. In many depart
motits of manufacturing there is no com
petition betweendlllerent oslablishmonts
A uniform scale of prices Is adopted whlcl
is rigidly adhered to. In many cases ou
patent lawa and tariff system ouabli
thorn to ustablieh and perpetuate thi
moat oppressive monopolies. The west
ern farmer learned the price of whoa
and pork by rcadicg the market report
of Liverpool. IIo gets no informatioi
about the prices of cloth , and article !
madu from iron and steel by consulthif
the quotations in the papers of Man
Chester , Sheffield and Brimiugham
These quotations are of no value in thli
country , pxcnpt it may bo"to enable ou
enterprising manufacturero to double tin
figures. The producers of articlcu o
food In this country are obliged to com
pete with the producers of similar pro
ducta in every part of the world , but oui
manufacturers , whoso goods farmers arc
obliged to have , have no competition except
copt among themselves. As bofon
stated , they generally manage to pcovon
such comnutitlo'n. With such a state o
affairs , it ia no great marvel that far men
are not prosperous.

The romnrkablo growth of Omaha
during the last few yoara la n matter of
great astonlohmont to those who pap nn
occasional vialt to thlq rowlnf ; city. The
development of thu Stock Yarda the
nocosaity of the Bolt Line Road the
finely paved ntrcots the hundreds of nor
realcloncoH and costly bnslnoaa blocks ,
with the population of our city moru than
doubled In the last fire yo.vrn , All thlo
ia H great surprise to vfaltors nnd in the
admiration of our citizens. This rapid
growth , the bnnlneaa activity , and the
many substantial improvements matin &
lively demand for Omaha real estate , and
every investor Las made a handsome
profit.
Slnco the Wall Street panto last May ,
with the cubaoquont cry of hard times ,
there has been loss demand from specula-
torn , but a fair demand from Invostoro
seeking homoa. Thla latter class are
taking advantage of low prices In build ,
ing material and are securing their homoa
at much leas cost than will bo possible a
year honco. Speculators , too can buy
roaloEta' a cheaper now and ought to take
ndvant o of .present prices for future
profit ! .
The nest few yoara promises groatei
d ivol opmonta in Omaha than the past
fivi years , which have been oa good an
wo could reanonably desire. Now man
ufacturing establishments and largo job
bing houses nro added almost weekly , and
all add to the prosperity of Omaha.
There are many In Omaha and througn-
but the State , trho have their mcnoy in
the banks drawliiga _ nominal rate of 1
toroat , which , if judiciously invested ID
Omaha real estate , would bring them
much greater returns. V/e have many
bargains which we are confident vlll
bring the purchaser large profits In the
near future.
We have for sale the finest resi
dence property in the north anrl
v/estern parts of the city.
North wo have fine lots at reason
able prices on Sherman avenue.l7th ,
18th , 19th and 20th streets.
West on Farnam , Davenport ,
Guming , and all the leading streets
in that direction.
The grading of Farnam , Califor
nia and Davenport streets has made
accessible some of the finest and
cheapest residence property in the
city , and with the building of the
street car line out Farnnm , the pro
perty in the western part of the city
will increase in value.
Wo also have the agency for the
Syndicate and Stock Yards proper
ty in the south part of the city. The
developments made iu this section
by the Stock Yards Company and
the railroads will certainly double
bhe price in a short time.
Wo also have some h'ne business

lencep for sale ,
