ICE HOUSE BLOWN DOWN.
RICHMOND, Feb. 18.--The Cedar Grove ice
house in Dresden, owned by Portland parties,
blew down about half past one this afternoon
badly breaking the timber. At the time of the
disaster there were probably thirty men at
work around the house, but strange as it may
seem no one was hurt. 1t is hard to estimate
the amount of damage, but it will probably be
between $500 and $1,000. o,

MANY PERSONS ARE SELLING
THEIR GOVERNMENT BONDS WHILE
TIE PREMIUM IS STILL LARGE
AND REINvEST IN TIE FIRST
MORTGAGE BONDS Oh THE CEN
TRIAL RAILROAD of IOWA, WHICH
FAY ABOUT ONE-THIRD MORE IN
TEREST. THE TINE TO MAKE SUCH
hEiNVESTMENT is aDhile the Treasury IS
oaysng, and Governments are at a premium.
THE ROAD DOES NOT RUN THROUGH
a WILDERNESS, where it would have to
wait years for population and business, but
through the most thickly settled and product
I've agricultural counties in the State, which
gives each section lar traffic as soon as com
pleted
II runs through the great coal fields of
southern Iowa to the North where coal is in
uispehsable and must be carried.
IL runs from the great lumber regions OF the
North, through district of country which is
destitute of this prime necessity.
Inc mortgage is made to the Farmers Loan
and Trust Co., of N. Y, and bonds can be is
sued only at tIs rate of $4,000 per mle or on
~ half the amount upon some other roads,
Special security is provided for the principal
and for the payment of interest.
The New York Tribune says ''this is splen-
did enterprise, and deserves the most liberal
aid" ~
The New York independent says, 1--WE know
the Central Railroad of Iowa is one of the
great and good works of the age. Its Direc-
tors include many of our leading bank presi-
dents and other gentlemen of high character,
who have means enough to build two or three
such roads out of their own pockets, so that all
its affairs will be ably as well as honestly man
aged The Central of Iowa will be to that
State what the New York Central is to this,
except that it runs through far richer coun-
try. We therefore recommend the Central
Iowa Bonds, with entire confidence in their
value. Tie truth is, that First Mortgage Of
10000 per mile upon a road running through
such country cannot be otherwise than safe
First Mortgage Bonds for so small an amount
upon road running through such rich and
already well-settled part of Iowa, can we'll be
recommended as perfectly safe as we'll as very
profitable investment. They are now selling
more rapidly than the Company can use
the money. Pamphlets, with map, may
be obtained, and subscriptions will be
received at THE COMPANY'S OFFICE, No
