A PRINCELY PARTY. An Elegant Celebration in Honor of Mr, 8ol Prince’s 20th Birthday. Yesterday evening a very pleasant gathering of friends assembled at the to come in with its trains, and now the C., B. & Q. bout to take a new departure that will no doubt have its offect on all the Jowa pool roads toward the same end. It will be remembered that a con- forence was held at the U. P. trans. fer last Wednesday, which was re- ported in Tur Bex, and we intimated that other important changes than those announced would take place at an early day, which we were not at the time at liberty > speak of. It is now positively stated that on and after July 1st the O. B. & Q. will begin running two daily passenger trains each way botween the Omaha depot and Pacific Junction, via the Platts- mouth bridge. Theso will be what are known as the stub tgains or local passenger trains, which have been run for the accommodation of Nebraska travel and the regular express trains from Chicago wilf still run into and out from the Transfer depot, but will connect with theso trains at Pacific Junction, giving our people practi- oally the same advantages as are now to be gotten only by going across the river. The time schedule furnished us, and which we will publish later, indicutes that there will be little orno difference in the trains on the two sides, and this seems more possible, a8 the through trains between Chicago and Denver will begin running on the same date. We have private information of still further changes on the part of the Towa lines, which will add to our facilities for intercourse with the east and south, A correspondent, a non-speculative holder of Union Pacific securities, sends the following to the Boston Journal concerning the fulure pros- pects of the road: *‘In your paper of to- you speak of Union Pacific railroad stock as a safe investment, and refer to the large absorption of it by investors in New England. In this connection at- tention may be directed to a few facts which may be of interest and perhaps profis to such stock holdere. The expenditures of the Union Pacific company for renewal of steel rails in 1881 were §1,700,425 (report of 1882, p. b), all of which was paid from ope- rating expenses, With this large ex- penditure the earnings of the road for the year 1881 were l%} per cent on the stock, and without it the earnings would have been over 13 per cent. The same report, same page, says the amount to be ex- pended for this pur| in 1882 is only $5660,000, which will complete the work of laying steel rails on the whole main line; consequently there will be, from this source, $1,150,426 to be added to the net earnings of this year. The earnings of the road thus far this year, as reported, show the gratifying increase of $2,276,000 over last year, and should there be no further increase this year, the net earnings, it would seem, cannot fail to show a surplus of $4,000,000, after paying the usual dividend of 7 per cent, making the total surplus at the end of the year $8,500,000, and the net earnings for the year 1882 14 per cent on the stock. Consider that this road is now in its infancy—that it is in a rich and rapidly-growing country which it is seeking to develop by the construction of important extensions of railway—and any man can judge for himself what the future value of this great property must be.’ GROSS FARNINGS.

Prince to cele- brate the 29th birthday of our well known and much respected citizen, Mr. Sol Prince. The evening was very pleasantly spent in social intercouse with some lively and enchanting music furnished by Prof. Steinhauser's famous orches- tra, A very elegant supper was laid out replete with every delicacy that could be desired by the most fastidious epi- cure, After supper some very neat little speeches were made by Messrs, F. Adler, A, Rosewater, S. Bloom, 8ol Prince ana A, Prince. Mr. Silber- stein also made a very appropriate speech in German. The party broke up at a seasonable hour. Among the ladies we noticed Mrs, C.

He came to this city in 1862 when but two papers were running, The Nebraskan and The Republican, and has a vivid recol- lection of the transactions of those days in which he took an_active part. 0 afterward went to Montana and remained four years, printing the first p.g'r over published in that territory, at Virginia City, This is a pretty old record for 80 young a man, and there is no telling what he will do yet before reaches the allotted age of three score and ten, which he has every reason to expect he will do. He is now the gropriewr of anice and comfortable ome on North Eighteenth street and one of the solid citizens of North Omaha, Sweet Sixteen. Thursday the many friends of Miss Ida Penny met at the residence of her parents, on 25th and Cuming street, to celebrate the sixteenth anni- versary of Miss Ida's birthday. At an early hour, the house was filled to its utwost capacity, when musio, vocal and instrumental, was enjoyed until 10 o'clock, At that time the guests were invited to partake of a sumptu- ous repast, after which an inspecrion of the presents was made by the party. of them costly, showing the high re- gard her young friends have for her.

Last ovening Miss Lottie Sincere's residence, corner of Jackson and ‘Thirteenth streets, was raided by a party of friends who had up their minds to give her a pleasant little sur- prise. Miss Siucero received her friends with great glee, and a very pleasant social evening was spent, enlivened by o little music and dancing. Among others &rgsum were Misg Nellie Sexauer, Miss Katie Whits, Miss Georgia Shipman, Miss Minnie LOADING STOCK, An O, & R. V. railroad boy tells this story: 41 was working on Engine No,-—- on the Hannibal & , pulling froight trains, One night we had on next to the engine and old fashioned rack cattle car, with no top on, which oar had twonty steers crowded on it. We were skipping along when k-whack we struck a cow and knocked her high up in the air, but did not see her fall. Well, we thought no more of it. When we arrived at our destination, the man who owned the cattle was unloading them at the stock yard, when he bawled out to the conductor to come there, He then stated that he had only loaded twenty steers, but now he had twenty steers aud a cow, Whero the cow came from he was at a loss to know, when a train man step. ped up and informed him that the en- gine had picked her up out in the country and thrown her in his car.” SCEAP IRON, George E. Buck has been appointed foreman of the Union Pacific yard at this place. Arrangements are being made for Burch and Messrs, W. Morris, H, anuwr, C. Patrick and G.

Sl Jolly Bachelors Are here, and three of the jolly number entertained a fow of their intimate fair sex and gentlemen friends in their handsome suite of cor- ner roows in the Jacobs block Thurs- day. By all uppearance from the outside, the party must have had a pleasant time, The sweet music and quartette singing was very euchanting and drew forth large crowds on the opposite side of the street, The re- freshments were served in an elegant style, and as the ]mrt{ broke up at a suitable hour,all wont home re-Jovce- ing, Call The following are the latest orders issued from the department of the Platte: First Lieutenant Alexander M, Wetherill, Sixth infantry, is relieved | &c. the excursion of the Oolorado ml&m duty at Park City, Utah, to dut;T Jine 30, and will report at that date to his company commander for duty.

What s his name! I declare 1 can't recall it.” The cheeky stranger thon stepped to the front door, about which several of the boarders were seated, and asked, ‘“Which one of you gentlemen was it invited me to sup- per!” Getting no response he turned back into the room and as he reached for his hat remarked, “I think the man who invited me has gone up town and I will go up and see if I can find him.” He departed and yesterday turned up i the custody of Marshal Angell, who evidently had invited him to partake of the hospitality of the hotel de McClure.

Omaha Not Succeseful in This Year's Awards, In the recent award of mail carry- ing contracts, our Omaha bidders seem to have been rather unsuccess- ful.

This firm will put two new government wagons on the routes and make several changes, but it is not a matter of congratulation that atrangers have stepped into the shoes of a well known and successful Omaha contractor. 1t is stated that the Patricks have aleo been unsuccessful in their hids this year, Capt.
