of French , but in istly if American imn

others containing nicely-graded quant i
tlci of water. The strains cf a weirc
and atrsnguly beautiful melody came
floating through the open doorway , bu
ceased the moment the unexpected visi
tors entered the room , The nruaiciai :
was Mr. Peake. Ho is a wcll-4p.oiriaf {

waves over his shoaldots , and a fine caun-
tecanco sot off by a high nnd broad
expanse of forehead. The eld must

Po ka entered the room. "Give na thi

SOME REMINISCENCES.
"Hovs- did you native American ) oomi

and I became so interested In him that
adopted him into tbo troupo. Ho wa

thought , bo en ugh to support him nnd

, 'Well , if this Inauguration ball got

shall be surprised , " said ono of the work
men at the new pension building to-day
' Do you anticiputa an accident ? " I in
quired.
"Ob , not especially , " replied the me
chanic , as if to recall bit statement
"But , " pausing again , "It looks to mo a
though it would bo very easy to have
disaatioua fire iu the ball-room. Hav
yon seen the design of decoration ] "
I had not.
"Woll , " continued he. "there is tob
flags , and buntit'g , aud dr/tpcry / , and ce
dar until there'll ba no end to it. An
how do you tuppoeo it will all bo lighto
up ? Yes , there will ba electricity ; ou
( hero will bo thousands of gas-jets , toe
all right lu with this very intlammabl
stuff. The way they will bo located 1
will require the very greatest care to pre
vent a nro. And the roof it will bo c
cinvaa. There will be fireworks al
around the building that night , aud i
will bo next to impossible to keep thci
off the roof.
"Will tharo net bo precautions takei
against fir" " . ] "
"Yoj ; but what eoalcan that do ? No
any. If a fire breaks out it will bnrnlik
a tinder-box , and precautions will do IK
good. Thru it is going to require th
very greatest pressure of facilities tohea
the room. That will increase the dan
ger rf fire , and wo may bo blown up
too. "
"I will go In at.d toe , " I remarked
turning toward an entrance.
"Can't get in hero , " said a man at th
door. No une admitted hero except h
haa a card from iha committee. "
"What Is this order for at eo early ;
daj ? ' laaliod.
"Don't knorr , " was the reply.
"Anything to see in there ? '
"Nothing. '
"Do many corno with orderj from th
secretary of the crmmittuB ? "
"I ot many ; a few who are going t'
have something to do with the fixings.1
"Havo you hoard anyone say why in
ono , except hu baa business , r.an enter 1' '
"Well , " r. plied the doorkeeper. : "
have heard n good deal of comment , am
have my opinion ; that's all. But L don'
want to say Hnything. "
The lui.rcs [ ion la that there ia adonbi
purpose in all this. In the first place
Ihe Dom wllll kely bo very uncomfort
able , and it is desired that It bo no
known that It Is not a suitable placa for i
lady to apt nd an evening until It Is to
late. Comments upon tbo place are ce
pecUlly foardd by the committee , And
secondly , the danger the ylnco will bi
subjected to it U detiroi to keep a to
crot. A fierce galotf wind might blowth
roof away , cioai a panic , and tacit ID jurj
Then there IB inoch fear ot firj and
number of accidents of different charac
ten ,
It appears lh t there Is much moi
onthuiUm over tha ball In the countr

were in for it. So wo didn't give thorn
no welcome , but just peppered away
away when they got up close enough
t command raepect. Th y had arrows
and wo had cuns , army entblnes , that
would shoot like old sin.
"Wo kept up trio figU with about

I saw him twang the arrow right iutc
Riyiiolde. Struck him right below the

just sat down and pullrd the arrow out ,
but I was so mad I took after that buck.
Flo ran for tha chai perel , and I aftoi
him , a-shootia' as 1 Wont. Pur'y soon
the buck foil down with hia back turned
up toward me , lind cf deliaut liko. 1
peppered him full of holes with mj

him up.
"So , just like an Indira , I cut cff h't

The remarkable growth ot Omnhn
during the last few years Is K matter ol
great Astonishment to those who pay an
occasional visit to this growing city. Tha
development of the StorV Yards the
necessity of the Bolt Line Road the
finely paved stroota the hundreds of now
residences and costly business blocks ,
with the population of our olty more than
doubled In the last five yearn. All thlo
Is a great surprise to visitors and Is tha
admiration of our cltlions. This rapid
growth , the business activity , and the
many substantial Improvements m&dn n
lively demand for Omaha real eitato , And
every Invostoi has made handsome
profit.
Slnao the Wall Street p&nlo May ,
with the subsequent cry of hard times ,
there haa boon loss demand from specula
tors , but a fair demand from Invostorn
socking homos. This latter class uro
taking advantage of low prices In build
ing material and are securing tholr homoo
at much loss cost than will be possible o
year hence. Speculators , too can buj
real estV a cheaper now and ought to take
advant o of present prices foi future
pro ta.
The next few years promises groatoo ,
dvol opmonta In Omaha than the past
( iv years , which have been as good M
wo could reasonably doalro. Now man
ufacturing establishments and largo Job
bing houses are added almost weekly , and
all add to the prosperity of Omaha.
There are many In Omaha and through-
but the State , who have their money in
the banks drawing a nominal rate of In-
toroat , which , If judiciously Invested In
Omaha real obtato , would bring them
much greater returns. We have many
bargains which ire are confident will
bring the purchaser large profits In thf
near future.
We have for unlo the finest resi
dence property in the north and
western parts of the city.
North we have fine lots at reason
able prices on Sherman avenue,17th ,
18th , 19th and 2th ( ) streets.
West on Farnam , Davenport ,
Cuming , and all the lending streets
in that direction.
The grading of Famnm , Califor
nia and Davenport streets has made
accessible some of the finest and
cheapest residence property in the
city , and with thp buildmg of tha
street car lint' out Furimm , the pro
perty in the western part of the city
will increase in valiw
We also have the agency Jor the
Syndicate aud Stock Yards proper
ty in the south part , of the city. The
developments made in tins sertion
by the Stock Yards Company and
the railroads will certainly double
the uncn in a short timw.
We also have Bonn Him busmesD
