CAIRO COMPLIMENTS.

WHAT MIR. NlNiAN EDWARDS SAYS ABOUT
Ills CAIRO lNyESTMENT-HOw THE
SPRINGFIELD PEOPLE GOT INTO CAIRO
PROPERTY.
The venerable Hon. Nnian Edwards,
of Springfield, was in the city yesterday on
business; and, as all really intelligent and
enterprising men do, called on THE BUlLE-
TIN to renew his subscription and pay in
advance.
Mr.. Edwards is a large holder of Cairo
property, In 1855, with the then governor
Of the State, Matteson; John Moore,
State Treasurer; Thomas II. Camp
bell, State Auditor; Judge S. T. Lo-
gan; James l.. Lamb; r. +. Ruth; john S,
Bradford; John r. Smith and Others, cit
zcns Of Springfield, he came to Cairo and
bought lots and put up NUM- Of build
ings. COL S. s. Taylor for the Trustees Of
the Cairo City Property, gave to the Spring
field Company sixteen lots, and the erection
Of the St. Charles Hotel was
at once commenced. The contract
price for its construction was S32 1000; but
before it was finished, it cost about $4,000
more. When it was about completed one
wing of it fell, and afterwards il was sold
to Thomas Ragsdalc who finished and then
sold it. Each member OF the Springfield
company took two lots on Ohio Lcvec, be-
tween Sixth and Eighth streets; and, in
consideration of the fact that they had pur-
chased the lots At very low figures ESQ
for each, with the exception of the Vincent
corner, for which Mr.. Edwards pads 900
each member agreed to build at least one
house, Il three-story brick, twenty-five by
one hundred feet. Gov. Matteson built
two-thc present City National Bank and
the Express building, Judge Logan built
the Williamson house. After the buildings
were finished, a fire destroyed number of
them. The Williamson house was left Il
shell. This Judge Logan traded to Mr..
Edwards, who reconstructed il, and is now
its owner.
Mr.. Edwards says his Cairo investment
was the most profitable one he ever made in
his life. He put into the property he owns
here $4,000 cash, and in twenty years sue
cceding 1850 realized in the investment
100000 over and above his taxes, Lately
he has not had as satisfactory returns as he
had formerly but he has had
larger returns from his Cairo pro.
perry since 1915 than from any
property owned by him elsewhere
He is now getting for i,--and has never 90,
less ten per cent ON his Investment and
enough to pay bis taxes. He says he is
satisfied with Cairo and Cairo property, and
expects before many years to yet yearly
return OF cent per cent on his mycs,mcn, OF
1853. In all his business experience IL
our city he has never had, he says, an,
trouble. llcneycr los, n cent and ncvc
had to sue man to make his money.
MI Edwards testimony is u high com
plimcnt to our city, and we place It bcior

TIE owL-FACFD VASES.
After showing and describing some of the
finest of The owl vases he said:
No belief Jf Schliemann'S has been treated
with more diSdain than this about these owls
that they represent the goddess Athene. That
She i the tutelary deity of the town; that HO-
meT's epithet, glauk opiS," means owl faced,
and That they are evidence identifying the
city. II was Immediately said that these things
were not owls. hut were rude attempts II rep

wrlser says that every object found at His
Sarlk which appears Ia have eyes and mouth

Owls head.
Now, if there is one particular thing which
