A Itreesy Old Pioneer.
Air David Showaul , the old pioneer whoso
icturn to the city was chronicled by THE Bin :
jcstcrday morning , was around yesterday
meeting old friends. It was eighteen years
o that ho loft the city and went westward ,
and rather 't'lino heis been swinging his
scythe very Industriously during the in
terim , and Mr. Stieward did not meet many
familiar faces among the multitudes en
countered on the streets.
Mr. Sheward is an editor of some prom-
incnco on the coast , where ho owns and edits
a weekly paper. In the eaily days of Coun
cil Bluffs ho was also an editor , nnd being a
man of a good deal of nerve and numerous
opinions ho frequently enjoyed bieczy times.
He estimates that ho still has a do/on ropes
Vvhich wcio procuicd to hang him nnd b.iys n
small armory of pistols and guns were loaded
with the Intention of sending their contents
intojds body nt the most convenient place.
"
Ho edited the Bugles , a "weekly paper pub
lished hero dining the war. It was owned
by Colonel L. W. Babbit , who was
a Sojmour demount. Sheward was 1101
content with as mild nn appellation of his
political \lo\\s and announced himself n
"rank coppoihcad. " The frank announce
ment mid the fearless opinions expressed in
every Issue of the liuglo made It very Inter
esting for the editor during the war times.
On ono occasion , when ho was living In ono
of the little glens , which no thinks Is now
Glen avenue , ho was visited late at night by
a band of nmskod men. In the dim light they
appealed to thonuinborahundrcd ormoroand
Shcnnrd noticed that each of them cnriicd a
ropo. They ordered him to como out nnd bo
hung by the neck until ho was dead , or as a
compromise to pull on his clothes nnd louvo
the town within llfteen minutes. Sheward
says ho recollects that it was not ngoodnlght
for being hung and was a still worses ono to
bo driven out of tovn , and he concluded that
ho would not consent to cither proposition.
He announced It over the mu/zlo of an old re
volver that hud not been flred for years , and
the crowd thoauht that ho might hurt
somebody nnd they left. Sheward su\s
ho found ropes enough lying around on tbo
ground the next morning to supply his wlfo
with clothes lines for a year.
The fuel conccinlng the , city which Mr.
Sheward Is paitlculurly proud of Is his con
nection with the movement that was started
hi lbu ( to lomovo the capital of the United
States to the Mississippi valley. Ho claims
the honor of being the mst person to suggest
the scheme , and like everything else ho at
tempted ho tried to mnko a success of it. Ho
secuicd the nomination of Colonel Babbit for
the legislature nnd worked successfully for his
election. As soon ns Dabbitt got into his
seat ho Introduced a bill that Sheward had
prepared recommending Ilia calling of stnto
conventions to urge the removal of the na-
tlonnl capital to Council Hluffs on account of
the ccntial locution nud tlio security that
could bo Insured from foiolgn attacks. The
bill pissed both houses , and Ind u great deal
of elleet. Several states called conventions
In accordance with the iccommendations anil
inoiiioi lull/oil e-ongicss on the .subject , nnd
Council Bluffs was known all over the land.
The city commenced to boom from that time
nnd Ins kept It up to such an extent that Mr.
Shownitt scarcely recognizes an old land
mark.
Mr. Shcirnrd Is accompanied by his son ,
and the t\\o uro thinking of iclocatlng hero.

Mr. "W. I. Kicrstend , i\ho has Just re
turned from n ton days' tlip to Indianapolis ,
Columbus and Cleveland , In conversation
Viithu reporter for THK Bci : concerning hl
trip , snld that none of the cities named had
such clean , wide , well paved streets ns
Omnlia. While Indianapolis and Columbus
nro not so largo , Cleveland Is much larger
than Oinalm , and ho thought the three weio
good cities to draw comparisons Avifh.
"The ilist impression of Indianapolis to a
stranger , " said Mr. Klerstead , "Is being
landed in a magnificent union depot , but a
rieloof iv few hours tbiough the town con
vinces him that there Is a lack of push so
noticablo In Omaha nnd Dem or. The two or
tlirco piinciplo streets mo paved with
asphalt , the balancowlth wood , which has n
worn and dirty appearance. The street cais
nio run mostly by electricity , but horses mo
still used on a few of the sldo stieets. The
city Is nearly level and aside from the capi
tal , court house and depot , there is nothing of
Interest to sco ,
"From Indianapolis n lido of seven hours
through u rich level farming country
brinu-s ono to Columbus , probably the best
paved city in the country except Omaha.
They have entirely discarded wood pave
ment and use nothing but granite , brick and
asphalt. Kvoiy stieot wheio brick or granIte -
Ito Is used the cracks nro filled with hot tar ,
the same as wo do with wood. On all now
paving now being done tncy are using two
kinds of brick , ono called the Hayden brick ,
made In Hiiydenvillo. llfty-sevcn miles south
of Columbus nnd bohiB fl\e Inches square.
The other called the Hallwood block , mndo
In Columbus ; thesa nio 13 Inches long , 4
inches wldo und 0 inches deep. Both of
these bricks nio patented , ono having a hol
low space in the bottom with a rough sur
face on top , the other having bevel cdiros on
top with grooves around thosido for the tar
to run into. Both , I think , are good pave
ments. I have hail some sent mo nnd they
will bo on exhibition nt the board of pnbllo
works room nftor tomorrow. They aio thor
oughly vitrlilecl and ns hard as stono.
Columbus dopud Inigcly on Its stnto
Institutions , naving the stnto prison
blind , insane , deaf and dumb nnd imbo cllo
asylums located thpro. The most important
industry is the .manufacture of buggies.
There are seven different concerns , one-of
v hich , the Columbus Bugjry company , Is the
largest in the woiJd. employing aoout ono
thousand men. Tl\cfr \ street cms are still
drawn by horses , hut are soon to ho changed
to electricity. Neafly all business is done on
High street , on whlph the capital building
stands. Their blisiuess blocks nro three nnd
four stories high , having an old and dingy up-
poaranco. Whllq they nro way behind us on
business bulldlngts they arp ahead on resi
dences , liroad street Is three miles long and
200 feet wide , paved with asphalt. It Is
parked and on either side line rows of trees
extend its whole length. There are some
very line houses on It , probably ono hundred ,
which cost from 810,000 , to $100,000 each ,
'Cleveland shows a gront deal of pros
perity. Considerable piving is being done ,
mostly with granite. Uarllcld'a tomb nnel
Kuclld avenue are about all a visitor
cares to sco , excepting , perhaps , tlio
Arcade bazaar , a line live-story building be
tween three and four hundred feet long. The
booths all face on un inner court surrounded
by walks twelve feet wldo. The cntiro court
Is roofed with glass , and \\heii lighted by
electilcity makes a brllllnnt spectacle. I
never saw finer cooJs thnn were displayed lu
these booths , a peculiarity of which was that
each ono sliowcd an exclusive lino. Tor In
stance , ono hud nothing but gloves , another
umbrellas , or cut ( lowers , or neckties , ami
so there were hundreds of them , each owned
by different persons , The street cars run
mostly by electricity , which seems to bo the
favorite In all cities whcro it la used. In
ono of these places elo the ofllcO or store
