Mr. Frauk Reynolds On Slack. \_It 18 with pleasure we give place to the following letter. emanating as it does from the pen of so able an authority as Frank Reynolds, who 1s one of the most gkillful operators of steam plants and engines known in the entire country. Economy in fuel has received his long and careful attention. It might not be amiss to say that Mr., Reynolds ia the brother of Geo. H. Rey- nolds, of New York, who for twenty-five {)nn has been superintendent of the elamater Iron Works and stands unsur- passed in New York City as a consulting engineer. He isalso a brother of Edwin Ruégolda. superintendent for E. P. Allis & Co., Milwaukee, whose: reputation for fngenuity in mechanics is national. The minence of these three brothers, ench n his respective line, is .most remark- mble, and the endorsement of krank Reynolds of the position we assumed some days ago, on the subject of econo- mizing with nheufi fuel, and the prac- tical suggestions he offers, as to correct boiler setting, are entitled to a degree of consideration commensurete with his mbility. EpITorR OMAHA Bee: Iam pleased to kote that your journal so fully apore- ciates the importance to this section of the slack coal obtained here. It is of equal importance, thatour pres- ent limited manufacturing interests, show that they likewise apvreciate these ndvantages, to give the desired effect to zour article, *‘Slack vs. Lump Coal,"” in ausing others to locate here, and I rec- PpRnize noimportant point in this latitude, west of Cleveland, O., with as good ad- yantages on fuel, For this purpose [ ap- preciate your publishing so many com- munications, and I wish to add my testi- amony to the truth of every claim in your mrtiole quoted. With the endorsement uf such leading {r‘ul re):ruumh'o concerns as Woodman's inseed Oil Works, the Council Bluffs Waterworks city company and he Omaha Elevator and Grain comlpnny 1 predict that the use of slack here, for all manufacturing pur- poses atleast, will botherule, rather than the exception, within a very short time. In my experience of over thirty (80) years in generating and using steam on ocean stenmers, river boats, pumping works, etc., much ot my time has been devoted to the economy of fuel and steam. It mn{‘be of value to some to say right boiler 1 here that the proper setting of ' of great importance ing and steaming capacity, the most vital points are two, Viz.: not too small a com- bustion chumi)er. nd not too large a ato. In most cases I find the reverse this is practiced in setting stationary boilers, the combustion chambers bei oo lare As regards fuel Always nse as small o grate as you can generate the required am from, with proper eae, and avoid any set rule as to grate surface to boiler, experimenting on the amount, using that which gives tke best results, Set the boiler n d height from the grates, and never fill 1n back of the briage wall, but leave that space open for better comb: tion. If any wish to argue these points, don’t stop to theorize, simply try both WAy nd convince yourself at least. The slack coal brought to this section, 1 am now conyinced, s fully equal to the ‘best lump coal, from same mines, pound for pound, if handed properly.

In no other line is competition so fierce, unremitting and relentless as in the sewing machine business. A long suffering public, worried by the ceaseless importunities of the irrepressible agents, nceds no argument on this point. Under such conditions a sewing ma- chine, and especially a new sewing ma- chine, that gains the public favor must be possessed of real, solid merit. Facts are stubborn things and figures do not lie, therefore the following brief statement will be more convincing to the people who think for themselves than a column of bare assertions made without any foundation. 'wo years ago the proprietors of the Union “Sewing machine established a small retail office on North 16th St. 1t was small, paying a rental of oniy $20.00 per month. The establish- ment of this office was not annourced with any flourish of trumpets or useless display, Rel lnfi solol§ on its merits they placed the Union Bewing machine befors the public. Mark the result! A séries of surprises. In less than a year forced to secure a lnr%er building, and again before the lapse of another year, compelled to occupy _thewr present splendid quarters at 1609 Howard St, To- ay they are selling more sewing ma- chines, employing more employes, pay- ing the 'highest rent ‘and car- rying the largest pay roll of any Company In ‘the cit hese are the facts and figures in the ase from which the publiccan draw its 'wn conclusions, Prompted by their Success in the retail trade and recogniz- Ing the advantages of Ohaha as a distrib- nunfi point, the company have here lo- cated their supply depot for the entire west.

Fortunate id the man who can foresee the grand future which 1s already dawn- ing upon Omaha, and more fortunate is he if he can take advantage of that fore- sight to enrich himself. Foresight, judg- ment, sand and money—these are the four essentiald which are necessary to the building up of a fortune on the basis of Omaha real estate. Those laggards and drones who were continually toreseeing dark things in store for Omaha are no- where now—""they are not on the list and they never will be missed.” They have been swept under by the tidal wave of the prosperity of this great booming city, Ot all the property suburban to Omaha which has an inherent and intrinsic as well as a prospective value, there 1s none aluable than South Omaha prop- Fortunes here have been made in ar by the eareful and judicious in- vestment of money. The busy town, with its mammoth slaughtering and packing houses, its canning factories, stockyards and other kindred industries, has had a wonderful boom in the past, as it must have in the future, 1t is muni- fest, in fact, that South Omaha's boom is just begimning. The town must grow and flourish as Omaha has grown and flourished in the past and will continue to do in the future. Now is the time, therefore, to vest, before values ad- vance any further. Of all the additions there is none which nore promise of substantial and in ng value than the B. & M. Park. This lies southwest of the exchange building on almost a level plateau, with just enough of an undu- lating surface to add a pleasing diversity. It is covered with a heaithy growth of timber, which makes its vaiue all the more apparent. This addition has been cut up into lots which are to be placed upon the market at the ridiculously low vrices of 50 and $75. These prices have been determined upon more in order to introduce this addition to the public of Omaha than beeause there is any money in disposing of this pnflmrty at such fig- outh Omaha ures. Inavery few days these prices will be raised to something like true value. These figures will be made to rich and poor alike. 1t makes no difference whether you buy one or fifty lots, the price will be the . On Saturday morning, April 16, an excursion train will be run from the B. & M. depot to the addition for the benefit of those who wish to look over this property. 'The lots will then be sold as advertised. On Sunday morning, April 17, for tho ben- efit of the working classes, another train will be run from thé B. & M. depot. This will give ail a chance to invest and in- spect. The readers of the BEE can rest assured that this is no wildeat scheme or eutch})euny speculation. A warranty deed for each lot will be given by the Midland Guarantee & Trust company. Look out for this wonderful opportunity, invest and make money. ey Dietrick & Gutk architects, and super- intendents, Room 15 Creighton block. ——————— The New Postmaster. Mr. Coutant this morning said that he expeceted to be relieved from the duties of his position by next Saturduy. The bond of Mr. C. V. Gallagher, his succes- sor, he understood has been forwarded to Washington, and in the ordinary course of events would be approved on Tuesday next, when his commission would be issued, reaching him in time to enable him to assume the duties of post- master by next Saturday. Mr. Gallagher has been . an occasional visi- tor to . postoffice since the news of his appointment was received though he has not as yet paid much at- tention to the details of its workings, Postmaster Coutant this morning said he regretted that the last congress had not passed the npg}mhrintion for the new postoflice at this place. He said that even if the next congress should make the appropriation required, it would be two years from this time before the money could be available. It is not likely that the new postoflice will be built for at least the time mentioned, and by that time the business of the office will have most completely outgrown the present limits of the building.

A Busy Scene—A Man Who More Than Reeps His Promise, The busiest scene about Omaha is probably out the Military Boulevard, where over one hundred men are at work building the motor line to Benson. So little has been eaid about this and so rapidly and quietly the work has pro- gressed that it deserves special notice, It is a most important factor in Omaha's transportation facilities, and as a private enterprise is a very remarkable one. When Benson was put on the market last winter 1t was advertised that a street car line would be built to it by next September, This—many who did not know the proprictor—said this would never be done. There oW no room left for doubt, over one hundred men are at work on the line and 1t 18 nearly completed and spring has not yet opened, The hne is not only built sooner by athird of a year than was promised but it extends much farther out Military Boulevard than was ever prom- isedor expected and the manner in which it 18 to be equipped is beyond promise. Itis now definitely settled that the Baldwin Noiseless Smoke Consuming Motor will be used on this line. The same as arc in_use at Kansas City and Minneapolis. These motors are as rapid and noiscless as a cable car. This line is not only a big thing for Benson but for all the North West part of the city as it :\d«ls greatly to the transportation facili- ies. No one now doubts but that Mr. Ben- son is going to do what he said he would do for this addition, make it the finest and most beautiful suburb of any ecity inthe west, To give forty acres of valu- able ground for a park and ask nota cent for itis a donation which would scare most men. Mr. Benson is a care- ful observer, a man_of very extensive travel and observation and” he has un- hmited faith in Omaha’s wonderful future and is spending his money accord- ingly. Everything New!
