Free Feasting, Free '‘2utter- milk” and Sunflowers on the Side, The First Day's Experfence on the Overland Train. The following disvatch and corres- pondence trom our hoard of trade ex- cursion reporter will explain them- selves: EvansroN, August 5th. — The Omaha board of trade arrived on time and took a free dinner with the Kitchen Brothers, They here- with express their appreciation of the courtesy shown them by Mesers Kit- chen, F, CHEYENNE, August 4th, 1882,— August 3rd, on board regular train No. 3, U. P. R. R., the excursioniets occupying special Pullmancars, turned their faces toward the setting sun orf forty days’recreation and rustication among the rocks of the Rockies, Nothing worth{ note was seen thefirat day, save the bounteous flproductions ofgNebraska’s vegetation, in which she truly takes the lead of her neighboring states. The corn crop will be much better than expected, and grain deal- ersare now scouring the country, of- fering 40 cents per bushel for the crop and seem anxlous to buy at that Small grain is better than has been looked for, while the crop of grass is the best. The day was pleasant, with no dust or excessive heat to mar the jog of the ‘‘traveling traders.” The vast improvements of the county for tho lust few years were the absorbing top- ic of the day, light-hearted and gay, and as each gentle zephyr fanned the cheeks of the pleasure scekers and the invigor- ating air from the plains, perfumed with the fragrance of the new mown lmx, wild roses, ete., blew over them, their spirits rose correspondingly. AT FREMONT dinner was taken., Mr. C. ¥, Dris- secured a 10-gallon can of buttermilk, which lasted until we reached Ogden. On account of *Fred” not having any samples of the product of the Omaha brewery along, the buttermilk was eagerly sought for by the entire party, age. GRAND ISLAND supper; the town looked rather qu-et, The night passed very pleasantly, be- ing cool and wnrumbh. breakfast. The country in this ex- treme western part of the state of Ne- brasda is somewhat undulating, 1s composed of sand hills, alternated with layers of alluvial soil and rock, the latter many times boldly from the ground. Vegetation assumes & stunted appearance, the sunflowers are about three feet high, and little or no blue grass is growing, Buffalo grass predominates, After leaving Siduey several large flocks of sheep, together with exten- sive herds of cattle and horses, were seen, PRAIRIE DOGS are numerous all along the road west of Columbus, As we approach the Wyoming line the ridges are dotted with a scrub growth of pines that are now about six feet high, and the only mark of native timber to relieve the monotonous scenery, PINE BLUFFS is an unimportant station, whence numerous trains of cattlo are shipped. Daring the building of the road this place was known as “Rock Ranche,” Uonsiderable pine timber has been cut for the railroad on the blufls & fow miles southward from the depot, hence the name. The blutls are on the left hand sid of the track, and at this point are quite high and rocky, extending near to the track, while on the right haud sido is an extensive canyon or valley, from which some hay is being cut. This is the first station we reach after Between this point and Cheyenne the The party were very coll, being interested in the famous Fremont creamery, very thoughtfully and was pronounced unanimously to bo the best of the kind and an ade- quate substitute for a summer bever- All slept well. We reached SIDNEY at 8:30 Friday momiog, in time for projecting most desolate and barren country 18 passed, with nothing for the tourisy to look at save au ‘occasional snow break. Presently we enter a snow shed and we are in darkness for about five minutes, As we near CHEYENNE the Black Hills are plainly visible on the right, and the whole couutry is more broken. This is the capital of Wyoming and a pretty lively town, of which I shall speak sgiin.

C, H. Tucker. As one entered by the wcst | door, the cyes rested upon a target suspended in mid air, wreathed and gorlanded by leaves and flowers; be- low this hung the elegant Springfield sporting rifle, won by Sergeant Shipp, at Fort Snelling last spring, while shooting for positions on the Division team. Over the ‘“‘bull's eye” hung the marker, encased in a wreath of roses, emblematic of the laurels won by Corporal H, W, Gordon, who car- ried off the honors in the late Depart- ment match, thereby winning the gold medal and a place on the Depart- ment team, This company may well feel proud, twenty-seven wearing ‘‘the buttons” for marksmanship. Fort Omaha will feel their loss as both offi- cers and men have won the respect and confidence of all who knew them. At the east end hung another target similarly dressed, and leaning against the wall, all played out, was another, | hanging from which was the *‘paste pot” resting from its labors in furnish- ing paste to cover up the “bull's eye,” which was completely shot away. About the sides of the room were flags festooned with wreathes and flowers, 1In the center hung a largs flag, tastefully and neatly draped. One does not miss any trees, but at each end of the room is a small forest interwoven with flags, Altogether, the decorations were of such a nature a8 to reflect great credit upon Pt, Tucker and his aides. A most pleasant surprise was in store for the fort. The A. O. H. band from Omaha came out in full force and gave the boys a serenade. The pieces were well rendercd and a good time was given them. The dance opened at 8 o’clock with the grand march by the A, O, H. end Ninth infantry bands consolidated | The march was led by that whole- souled gentleman, First Lieutenant Allison, Seventy-five couples were present, and the dancing was kept np until Sunday morning bade the rove's conse, ‘The supper was gotten nup | under the charge of the compauy cook, who swore about the party eat- ing 0 much, Too wmuch cannot be said in praise of the able manner in which the arrangements were mnade and carried out.

The Hum of industry Which Never Ceaces Omahs Headquarters of the “Art Preservative.” There is something about the ring of true gold which always distin- | guighes it from the baser metals, and | 80 the genuine may be recognized at | all times in almost every business in | life, | It the mark ever stood out in bold | relief, if it was ever written in letters that “he who runs may read,” it is on the establishment at the | head of which F. C. Festner & Son | have so long stood and made the | firm name a synonym for good work, promptness and satisfaction, The pedestrian along Farnham street may hear the constant clanging of their presses from morning till night, and yet Le can form very little idea of the extent of the business car- ried on in this great job printiog es- tablishment. The only way to do 8o correctly is to pay it a visit. That is what THE BEE reporter does about every other day, and he always finds something new in the way of machin- ery or facilities for the transaction of their enormous business, which is increasing from day to day. Twenty-four hands sre now constantly employed, and the facilities for turning out commercial, book and job printing are second to no first-class establishment in the country, They do printing in five different languages, and blanks, hooks ete,, are kept in full stock at all times, while book-binding is a specialty in which they acknowledge no peer in the land, as Mr. ¥. C. Festner, who attends personally to that department has worked at it for over fifty years, and in the leading establishmenws of | Paris and London. The reporter saw & splendid specimen of the work in this line in fourteen large, full Turkey Morocco gilt-edged books, including two valuable bibles and twelve vol- umes of ‘Picturesque America, World and Europe.” They are beautiful samples of this art, which does so much to beautify our homes, and these books belong to the weal- thiest men in this part of the country, who take their work where they think it will be done che best. The mode of binding and ornamenting these works was explained to the reporter, and it is as delicate and complicated as building a watch, The firm is printing 16,000 circulars on one ovder, which are in five lan- guages—English, German, Danish, Swedish and Bohemian, and bhaye an- other job of 300 blank bouks in Ger- man. They have also had made to or- der thirty cases of paper with their water mark on it, which is now on the road Lere with 500,000 enyslopes and a large stuck of ready-mede blank booke, Since our last visit the firm has re- ceived a new numbering wmachine of the very latest pattern and & marvel of mechanical ingenuity.
