MANY TRANSACTIONS
 ARE NOW BREWING"

Agents consulted during the week admitted that several large transac- tions were "brewing," but, character istic of the profession, will give no de- tails until the dotted line has been properly autographed. Two-thirds of the heads of firms have been so tied up in the Victory Loan campaign that few could be found by newspaper men except at the allied army luncheons.
 "Si'' Garrett of the firm of Butler Garrett declares that he could sell 500 medium priced bungalows if he could get his hands on 'em. People are searching everywhere for homes rang ting in price from $2500 to $6000," says Si, "but owners who were anxious to sell q couple of years ago are now holding tight"
 Alex Montgomery and Jim Drake have, been ringing the sales bell with startling regularity. This young firm, in business less than six months, has already taken a place among the lead ing real estate and insurance organi- zations in the city-a prominence de- served by reason of the high character and aggressiyeness of it's components.
 William l.. White & Co. is another young. firm that is making rapid strides in the sales field. MT. White is an ex- perienced agent and he has associated with him several crack salesmen who are delivering the goods in big lots.
 Around at Jemison's the boys are get ting along temporarily without Hill Ferguson, their star salesman. Hill is giving practically all his time to the Victory Loan, as usual on government calls. but he has capable pinch hit ters'' who have been handling large delegation of prospects,
 Col. M. P. Messer and his large force have maintained their fast pace dur ing the past week and are bringing in the contracts daily. In fact, all of fees report steady sales, mostly under sS000. with prospects for even greater activity as the days roll by.

BONE DRY BILL TO SENATE
Search and Seizure Clause to Be MOdi.
fied-DraStie Features Changed.

JEFFERSON CITY, April 22.-The
bone dry bill. passed by the house tc
make effective the federal prohibition
amendment, was taken up by the Sem
ate this morning.
The measures scheduled for last
Tuesday were postponed and a special
order of business for 1890 this MORN
ing. Deferrment of action last week
was taken to permit the preparation
and printing Iof amendments. The
chief amendment added is the one
eliminating the restrictions on possess
sion of intoxicating liquor.
Modification of the search and seiz-
ure clause also is provided for in the
bill as presented today to the Senate.
The changes were made to meet wide
objections by senators. Virtually all
.of the drastic features introduced
in the bill have been elm
mated as the measure now stands.
The measure now provides that no
warrant shall be issued for search of
a dwelling occupied as private resi-
dent unless some part of it is used as
a store, shop or hotel.
Trials of all cases under the bone
dry law are to come before the circuit
court.

STORM PLAYS HAVOC
WITH FORMAL DANCE
Rain Wrecked Beautiful
Garden Built at Sigma
Chi House.
LIGHTS GO OUT, TOO
Dancers Adjourned to the
Tavern-Breakfast As
Sun Came Up.

The April shower and burned
out electric light transformer almost
proved disastrous to the annual Sig
ma Chi spring party last night. For
three days and three nights the MEM
bers had worked. They had trans
formed the yard into beautiful gar
den. The dancing pavilion was built
around a bubbling fountain which
was surrounded by ferns and potted
plants. Red and green electric lights
were strung in the water and around
the pavilion-that is, they were be-
fore the storm.
An arbor had been built from
branches in the front of the yard and
this, too, was lighted with electric
lights hung in Japanes lanterns. The
furniture and rugs were moved from
the house and they had planned to
serve breakfast in this arbor. A large
bell, made of redbud branches hung
suspended from one of the trees, and
the plan was to serve the punch tn
der this bell. The yard was strung
with many Japanese lanterns light
ed by electric bulbs.
Then came the rain, everything had
to be moved back into the house and
the dance was moved to the Daniel
Boone Tavern temporarily. Then,
due to the large number of lights
which were used in the lighting ef-
fects, the transformer burned out
C. w. Furtney and D. E. Traine, city
electrician, were called. They dis
covered the burned-out transformer,
which threw several houses in that
part of the city in darkness. Accord
ing to them, it would have required
at least six hours to replace the trans
former. Besides there wasn't an
other one in town.
In the meantime, the sentiment at
the Tavern was ION with the dance"
The question of no lights was much
more serious than the rain. The on
ly thing left to do was to turn the
house into a House of a Thousand
Candles. The Sigma CHS awoke W.
B. NOVEL; and bought a thousand
candles. The dancing pavilion was
candle lighted, and the three floors of
the house were all lighted by can
dies.
At o'clock, the party returned to
the house and dinner" was served at
small tables, each holding a small
candle. After the dinner, dancing
continued until the sun came up at
about o'clock this morning. Break
fast was then served at small tables
in the yard. The breakfast consisted
of grape fruit, country ham, scram-
bled eggs and rolls.
About fifty couples. attended the
dance. The music was furnished by
Eddie Kuhn's orchestra from Kansas
City. There were a number of out-of-
town guests who came for the party,
One party of guests returned to JEFF
ferson City this morning Immediately
after the dance.
