The past week has been an eventful and exciting one in the history of Council Huffs. The boom in real estate has be come oven more of a craze than Lake Alanawawas last summer. Everybody s eatch'ing the enthusiasm , anil arc back- ng up judgment by a free use of ready cash. Last Sunday the Bur. called alien- Ion to the fact that sales and contracts lad been made the day before amount- ng to $100,000. The evening papers took ip the statement , anil enthusiastically umounced that the boom was really opened. The Nonpareil alone hung back , xnd laughed at the idea , saying th ; t such statements should bo discounted 75 live icr cent. After having for some time jcen cautiously but nominally urging all 0 help build up Council Bluffs , the old ; raud-mothur , with sight enfeebled by ige , did not see that the boom vas alreay here. She laughed it the Bin and other pa pun or giving the news and kept declaring that there was nothing to it. Now even he has been convinced ami she is as on- husiaslic as any of the others. The Nonpareil indulged in much sarcasm ibuut the illustrated boom edition of thu > oor little evening Herald , but she has jcen her folly and is now trying to make imunds by borrowing the cuts and copy- ng the articles. Yesterday it repro- lueed the picture of the now court house , md despite some bad breaks in the make ip. which spoiled the description , it was 1 commendable movo. The other papers of the city aru glad that she is { rutting nto line and that she shows a disp'osition o help what little she can in "working o build ui ) Council Bluffs. " Thu real estate ollicos have been hronged during the week trom early nornnig until late at night. Almost every clerk , every young man who has a > ocket and a few minutes time , has been Uulying the man , which has become as' ; rcat an essential as a pocket knife or a coy ring. Everybody has been spcculat- ng more or less , generally more. Many of the duals have been over the cheaper mil unimproved lots , but a number of ialus of inside and improved property lave been made. Prices have jumped up rapidly , so rap- dly that it has become almost impessiblu to keep track of them. Some lots have : lianged hands as many as twelve times n a day. Instead of decreasing the ex citement is increasing , and the news ) eing spread about the country , money is flowing in for investment here. Thu building boom has not started j'ct , t being early for that , but there are nany tangible rea.sons for buliuving that t will be hero on time , and form a solid foundation for _ the speculative boom vhieh precedes it. There seems to be no loubt but that the charter for the wagon md street car bridge iittho footof Broad way will bo secured , and work commence on that at once. Tlio bill now pending s simply delayed by the natural course of time taken by congressional ma chinery. An effort is to be made to get the rules suspended , and the bill hurried up so that the actual work of construc tion may commence earlier. There is also every reason for belicv- .ng that thu union depot ou Tenth ave nue will bo built this season. The prop erty recently purchased from the Catho lic church will without doubt bo occupied by a largo business block this season. D. I" . Eicher will probably put up a line ollico building running from Main to Pearl street. A starch factory is among the enterprises being arranged for. Yes terday the work of organizing a syndi cate for a new hotel was buing startud. The proposal \ to purchase the present Pacific house property , and build a larger and better hotel there. The completion of the new court housc- thu new government building , the rail , wav work being done about the transfer , tho'number of residences being planned for , all these things indicate ! that there is to bo much to support Ihe present antici pation of better prices for real estate here. Prices have been ridiculously low , and oven then there has been little ac tivity. It seems that Council Bluffs has awakened to its senses , and that the re vival is one in earnest , and one which will continue. Among others Odcll Bros. & Co. yes- terdny sold lot 11 in block ! ! 7 Ferry's , for $100 , Jot 8 in block and Jot 10 in block 82 in Railroad add to E. W.

T. Oliver in the Masonic tumiilo , Mr. Colby maile the remark yesterday to a gentleman : "You haven't a boom here , just wait a few weeks and people will bu standing on their heads ; . .outsiders have been looking for this more than you folks have , and by May things will boil.

There was little generally known hero of thu artists composing the company , and with the exception of those who aru posted in musical matters , there was not a high ex pectation to bo met. Those who did at tend were surprised. They found the company to be far beyond anything they had expected. Miss Bunsberg , the prim a donna , is a young American girl , a native of St. Louis. She has a bird-like voice , ewcel toned , and very flexible. Added to the charms of voice arc graces of man ners which make her a favorite with the audience irom her first nipcarnnco | , and causing increasing enthusiasm to the ( in- ish. As nn actress , too , she shows more than ordinary ability. Miss Montugriffo , thn contralto , is a very pleasing singer , with a voice of remarkable - markablo compass and strength. She is also an American girl , her homo being in Cincinnati. She has been in the Miuniu Hank company and other famous organ- i/ations , and her voice evidences both natural gift and careful culture. She wears a diamond necklace , the gift of Patti , and has numerous mementoes of her associations with leading artists and their appreciation of her merit , Air. Knight , the basso , has a powerful voice , which ho controls in a masterly manner. The company has also in Mr. David a tenor well worthy of such a po sition. The entertainment consisted of Balfo's operetta in ono act , "Sleeping Queen , " and the third act of "Martha.1- ' The com puny is not largo in numbers but makes up in merit. The policy is thus to keep the expensed at such a low figure as to enable the management to give the people ple cholco music , and yet enable the company to stop in cities when ) they could nnnlly afford to appear had those leading artists a support consisting of a largo number , with largo choruses. . Wo have good deals to offer in every addition inside of thu city limits , and money can bu made on them if you pur chase'now. .

The First Koiinil. The motion to dismiss thu last batch ol saloon injunction cases was yesterday morning overruled by Judge Thornell. The points claimed in support of the mo tion byMr. Baldwin , and those sot up by Attorney Sims in resisting the motion , wore given in full in yesterday's UKK. Tlio decision of the court yesterday gives tirc't blond to Attorney Sims. The sit t.ciup * * " v > w' bo madet.O1 . .pi'oss.tho oases to a hearing , bnt this will probably be resisted by motions to obstruct , based on other alleged technical defects. The move to secure Injunctions is being fought Inch by inch , and the contest shows much ingenuity and ability on both sides. The citi/.cns generally are greatly interested , as thov feel that the closing of the saloons p.innol but have its effect on business , cither for bettor or worse , the general ciulmcnt bcingthnt such an action will not stop the sale of liquor , but will simply result in more harm than good. On the other hand it is claimed with much shmv of justice that it is the law and should bo obeyed. The prohibitionists are in the minority hero and those who are actively pressing the suits number but very few. They aru keeping at it , however , and they declare they will not yield. The city was full of outsiders yester day buying up properly , and Cook te Morgan have increased their force to at tend to customers. ICdwnrd-j Must On Across. For some time the motion for a new [ rial in the case of Edwards , the con victed crook , has been under advisciuonl , but yesterday Judge Carson , who had : lie motion in hand , overruled it. It was proposed to sentence Edwards at once , but his attorney , Colonel Edwards , Dleaded for some time , expressing the liopo lliat arrangements could be made by which Edwards could give a bond. In view of this statement Judge Carson ixed upon Saturday us the time for sen tencing Edwards. It will be another week of anxious watching on the part of Jailor McNoill , who has justCgrounds for liiispocling that Edwards will make a break if lie gets a chance. Tools have neen passed into the jail , and have been diseovere.d before they wcro usedand the vigilance will be kept un. It seems that i gang have determined that Edwards is .00 valuable a man for them to allow to ; o across the statu , and arc. doing all in heir power to prevent his being son- lenced.

Tlio Shall In Hi * In the presence of the imams and dig nitaries of the court the shah receives the salutations and New Year's greetings , and accompanied by effusive and longwinded - winded compliments ; the court poet re cites iin ode or panegyric upon the wisdom anil above all the decernnient of the king ofkmys. Later on the members of the various corps diplomatique , after being received by some of thu ministers of state , aru admitted Into the presence anil behold thu i'.uirust countunauen of the shadow of ( iod. Although he has a larger collection of jewels than any other monarch , this is one of the few occasions unon which lie displays them , for as a rule the shah dresses plainly and in quiet colors , with only a fuw diamond buttons on his black cloth coat. But on the New Year his majesty is usually bedecked in his most magnilieent juwols , many of 'which ' wcro lrouglit by the ruthless Nadir Shah from Delhi : his tunic Uabla/.u with diamonds mends , his bolt , sword and scabbard incrusted - crusted with the same costly gums , and in his hat is the aigrette or distinctive emblem of his royalty. .Thu cere mony is usually not a Jong one ; his majesty addresses , a few words to thu ministers , inquires after the statu of their country ami the health of their respective sovereigns or pres idents. The distribution of bags of money which , by the bye , year by year decrease in valuu-uml the distracting noise of twanging musical instruments announce that thu reception ir over. The coins presented are contained in tiny silk bags made for the occasion , and consist cluelly of silver as thin as a wafer ; some times there aru a few gold pieces among them about thu size of an old silver penny , of not much intrinsic value , but much appreciated in Europe when mounted as earrings , buttons , and other oriiainenta. _ mi OFFICER & PUSEY , COUNCIL BLt'rFS , IA , "a- O A I P" Em AT SALE OF Ladies' ' and Childrens1 Hoih E& < * Wo have succeeded in pur- ug at nn Extraordinary Bargain A Ini'ae quantify of Muslin Un derwear , Childrens1 Drones , Aprons , etc. , wliic.li we have di vided into two lots , and to make quick sales will sell them at 25c Consists of Ladies' Night Robes , Chemises , Drawers , Corset Covers , long White Aprons , Childrcns' White and Hod Msthor Ilubbard Dresses , Drawers and Infants1 Slip ? .
