The Texas Delegates Coming —Anec- dotes and [tems of News For the Boys to Itead Be- tween Towns. Traveling Men, Every Monday Tur Ber devotes a portion bf its space to the interests of the traveling fmon. Many of them have shown apprecia tion of our efforts in_this line by sending us personal notices, news itoms of interest and ancedotes of members of the craft. They sce et a glance that through no othor medium can they 80 readily and effectually put them solves and their houses beforo the peopla. In order to encovr: them, and to continue Twur Bes in popularity among the travelers, we bave placod Message Boxes at the princi- al hotels in the city, Every traveling man invited to contribute somothi ould in all cases bo signod, although the authorship of them will be held in confidence, Among the Omaha Meu.

Mr. G.

He is a gensl Connecticut ““Yankee” who has learned to like the west. His Muscle Saved Him. J. G. Caldwell, a drummer for the house of Coffin & Altemus, of New York, lives in ‘Woodside, N. J. On Tucsday night he vis- ited Arlington and started to walk back ncross the railroad bridge. He had got to the center of the bridge when he heard a freight train approaching. The bridge has no footpath, and there was no room for Cald- well to stand in safety while the train wi passing. Realizing his peril he crawled to tho side of the bridge and seizing the end of a tie swung himself clear, 100 fect above the stream, holding on until’ the train pussed, when he managed to draw himself up on the bridge. He was much exhausted. The re- wainder of the journcy was made in safoty. He Lost His Money. T. P. Rose, acommercial traveler, rep- resenting the Queen City Clothing compan of Cincinnati, 1ost a valise containing money and valuablos to the amount of §1,000 between Cincinnati and Mobile a few nights ago. He says he had been out on a collecting tour and had before his departure from Mobile placed $450, a gold watch and chain, & diamond pin and several other articles of valuo in a valise, which he placed in the hat rack over his head in the parlor coach in which he was rid- iug. Headid not leave the car at all, und only his scat once at Montgomery, and is confident the valise was in place when he left that city. He missed it just before the train ar- rived in Cincinnati, How Drummers Eat. The proprictor of a country hotel in Penn, sylvania, in the Merchant Traveler, sa; that it is worth 25 cents more w feed a drum- mer than a farmer for several reasons. First, o farmer may eat a great deal, but he takes plain food that costs but little,while & drummer wades through the bill from one end to the other, eating a little of each arti- cle. "It isn't always what one cats,” re- marked this Bomface, ‘‘the articles that ave wasted mus v be counted in." Secondly, a farmer reguires no attendance, while adrimnier wants to keep at least one waiter copstantly on the go. Thirdly, 8 farmer scldom grumbles, but devours what is set before him; a commer- cial man is an accomplished growler, and growls away more than 25 cents worth of the boniface's good humor. We do not wish the above to be considered as our sentiments. We are noutral on the question, The above is only the opinion of aho landiord. We should be glad to hear from the com- merelal men on the question.

Brewer and H. A. Pilsbury, of Dullas; E. J. Auderson and R. C. Steck- ton, of Fort Worth, and President Dan Mal- veru, of Corsicana. 'The delegation will ar. wivwlu Omaha about the 10th. There has been some talk on the part of the local tr eling men of giving the cowboys 8 grand ceplion when they reach this eity. Preparing to Celebrate. The traveling men residing in Grand Islund have already begun making arrange- ments for a Fourth of July celebration among themselves, and they have invited the pubtic w join with them. They propose to entertain thelr more unfortunate traveler friends with a real home dinner eooked by their own wives. They have issued the fol- lowing official invitation to the members of their craft: . . Grand Island says come, ‘‘eat, drink and be welcome.” The fifty-two resident traveling men of this beautiful little city, assisted by its generous and enterprising business men, will on the Fourth of July be prepared to en” tortain 500 traveling men’ their ladies.

The Minneapolis Teibune published in & rocent issue cuts of the president and secre- tary of the Northwestern traveling men's association with the following: Mr. James C. Miller is widely known among commercial travelers of - the whole country as president of the Northwestern traveling men's association. Mr. Miller has devoted much time to the detail of the asso- clation, and its success is largely due to his faithfulness. Mr. Charles H. Hinman, secretary and treasurer of the Northwestern traveling men’s nesociation, is a Minnesota production, d No. in the organization of which he is secretary, and among all of the older travel- ers in the northwest he is well known. He was oné of the founders of this most success- ful organization; in fact, is credited largely with being the father of ft. 1o that as it ay, he is popular with the embership, at- ntive to his duties and can’t be beat as a good secretary. A Drummer's Loss of Cheek. G. K. Murray, a drummer for a large Chi- cago house, tells the following story of how George H. Bell; a drummer for a large litho- graphing house in the same city, slashed oft his car and part of his cheek last Monday in a cigar store in Chicago: “Imet Bellon the street and he insisted upon my going down to see his brother. T told him T was perfectly willing to o and s his brother, but I would talk to him alone, or if it was necessary I would take a friend of mine and go and seo him. AsT got to the corner of Adams and Dearborn streets I said I would got & friend to come with me, s 1 did not care to go there where there might possibly be a half & dozen of his friends and nono of “mine. I said to Bell if he would stop at the express company building I would get my friend, He said: N ou can’t now. - Como right along with me or Ul put a bullet through you. T said I was not afraid of ~that, but would go if he wanted me ‘bub not alone, He wanted to know if this friend of mine was in the building, and I said I_would £0 up in the elevator and get him. He was evidently afraid I would slip away, but I had no such intention. 1 went over to the cigar stand and asked the boy if he would give me o card to make a note on. He did so, and I turned round and commenced to_write, and before T had written three words Bell stepped up behind me—crept up—and ere I could realize what had happened, my ear was cut off. T was 8o astonished I had no time to seizo_him. I then told the elevator boy to get Mr. Judah, and when he came down I was taken to his'room, a doctor was called and my ear bound up, and I was aflerward taken to the doctor’s office," Mr. Bell accuses Mr. Murray of havin been criminally intimate with his wife,whic charges Murray denies. Ho began prosecution proceedings against bis ussailant for mayhem. A Ministerial Drummer. Rev. Henry B. Cole is the subject of & lengthy biography in a recent issue of the St. Paul Globe. The chief points of interest in the article are the facts that Mr. Cole was educated for the ministry and followed his profession for some years, and finally left it to accept a position on the floor of H. B. Claflin & Co.’s house in New York. He is now developing the business of H. B. Claflin on the Pacific slope, and will have headquarters at Tacoma. Last year he was in Washineton territory, and satisfied him- self that there was a great future for that country. Mr. Cole is spoken of as a man of strong character and strong intellect. He spends a great many of his Sundays in the pulpit yet ana endeavors to_lead the boys in the straight and narrow path. He will m; some he investments in Tacoma for him- self and his firm and will move lus family there within the next year. Pay by Ledger Accounts. A Minneapolis commercial traveler in ad- vocating the subject of firms paying their men on the basis of their ledger accounts writes as follows to the Tribune of that cit, A few weeks ago 1 tried to call out an ex- pression of the C. T.'s in relation to the twin city Jobbers paying their traveling salesmen on the basis of the ledger accounts, but no one seems to give it enough thought or atten- tion to offer any ideas on the subject. Cun it be that T am the only one that is desirous of receiving credit for sales mado iu the house sud of which trade was drawn thero through my Jabor and influenge in th tory 7 The subject is called moro v mind, having this_week made a for team trip in the rain, and mud hub-deep, to find that two of my customers on the trip had just gome into the house to buy. Several of the boys of late scem to quite awaken over the mileage topic and write quite frequently on the subject, but to me it seems to be of much mor importance as compared to the above. 1f Iam alone in this desire to bring about the change, I shall have to endorsd it, but otherw let us hear from some of the weekly contributors to the traveling men’s column, and by a union of ideas and. action we may be able to bring about valuable fruit. He was a Masher. he following joke is told at the expense of a St. Paul traveling man, who on this oc- casion assumed the nume of Graves.

Excessive Baggage Rates. he subject of highand even excessive baggage rates for travolors occupied a great deal of the Towa legislature's time last win- ter andthe presentconditions of rates is worse than b the legislature convened, Before the interstato commerce law went into effect every holder of a 1,000 mile tick wis entitied to 200 pounds of baggage fre Well, to vent their spleen, the roads advanced the 1,000 mile tickets from 20 to #25, and at the same time cut the excess baggage down from 200 pounds to 150 pounds. This means to @ jobber employing eigzht men that the fifty ‘pounds differcnco 1o every transfer is 25 “cents, three transfers per day 75 cents, multiplied by eight is $6 per day; for the year of 300 d £1,500. Add 1o this amount the difference in 100 mileage books, $300; this single item is 52,500, To cut the complaint ort and draw it wild, it is asovere tax upon e best patrons of the road. Governor Larabee of lowa, inreply to s letter addressed him on this subject by one of the leading jobbers of the state of Minne sota, writes as follows: Your favor of the 10th inst noted. I realize the injustice of the action on the part of the railroad officials in raising the rate of 1,000 mile tickets from $20 to §25 and al the sawe time increasing the charge for transporting commorcial trav. rate in excess of at which was cstabl for years in this state for com ere is, in my opinion, extortio at hand and We have a statute against extortion and also have board of railway commissioners to ook after violations of the law, and I advise you to look to thewm for relief. Yours truly, WiLLiam LaxAues. The Travelers' Friend, The Northwestern Travelers' association has been organized a little over thirteen years, and during that time it bas accomp- lished L good to its members. The fol lowing statistics will give a faiot idea of its work: It has paid since its organization over §1,000,000 to the widows and orphany commercial travelers. It has uever cost to exceed §38 per year for §5,000 insurance. The average age of the moembers bLas decreased 1 instead of increased. Since January 1, this year, it paid a total of £100,000, Every man in the northest under forty years of age, who is eligible to membership, ought to bo- come a m ber. Lay amde the selfish idea that because you have no family of your own dependent upon you that you do not need it. More is this the reason why you should be- come a member. You are helping to sustain an institution that is carrying sunshine and consolation where otherwise would be dark- ness and despair. It1s the duty of every single commercial men, as well a8 those with families, to become members of the N. W.T. M. A He Was Too Fresh. The following was publisned in last Mon- day's Ber as a special from Tobias, Neb., and fully explains itself: Fay E. Roberts, a drummer for a glove house of Chicago, who had been en a spree here for the past weok, yesterday insultod a 1ady on the street and was pounded in a most becoming manner by her justly indignant hus- band. Who Oan Figuare It Out. GRAXD IstAND, Neb,, June 9.—To the Ed- itor of Tur Bre: Please decide the following for three traveling men who are somewhat mixed over a mathematical proposition. When visiting the Grand Island races Thurs. day three of the boys pooled their issues and took issue with tho pool box to the amount of $61.50. Of this amount A put in $37.50, B 815, and C #0.

When Ida shook the dust of Wisner from her foet she was in the company of & masher giving his name as William Pease. On her arrival in Omaha a week ago the girl applied to White's employment agency on North Sixteenth street, and was sent to No. 1623 Capitol avenue ‘? work in the kitchen. She gave the name of Sibyl Vaughn, Notic- ing that she had but the one dress she wore on hor arrival, hor mistross questioned her. The girl said she had left home to come to Omaha because she had a beau here. A trial of three or four days pFoved her incompetent for her work and she was released, She re- turned to the employment_agency and was sent to a restaurant on Thirteenth street. The proprietor was not in, but a brother asked to meet her at the postoffice in the eve- ning. The employment agent urged her not to do 8o, but to stop that night at her Capitol avenue place and report at the restaurant in the morning, The girl's movements since then are not known, but it looks very much as though she wera in the maelstrom of city life.

There is no class of business men in Coun- cil Bluffs who afe more contented with their location and more hopeful of the future than the jobbers. The figures have lately been gathered and footed,” with the surprising showing of 30,000,000 as the total of the job- Ding business of Council Bluffs for 1887, This year promises a groat increase, Tho local Tacilities for the jobbers are most exc lent, and they are enabled to reach out ove very larg territory in every direction, There are fully 800 traveling men who find this a most convenient center, the roads running out in_every direction, so that they can easily work from here any desired terri- tory. The advantages of Council Bluffs as a jobbing center have been thoroughly tested, and the increasing business is the most satis: factory answer to the question, Is it a good wholesale point? o Sunday Ba The J. J. Hardin ball team of Omaha camo over for a little fun with the Blufts boys and had it—for five innings. At the end of that time a change took place which resulted in an ending that was wholly uncxpected. The score in the second inning was 8 to 1 in favor of the visitors, but the home sluggers finally got thewr sccond wind and piled up twelve tallios in one icning, Six of them were on home runs. The score at the end of the game was 18to 20 in‘favor of the Bluffites, and the announcement of the victory was received with much incredulity on the strects by many who had left the grounds in_dis- gust at an carly stage of the game.

During the past week we made several large purchases of Summer Clothing at an immense loss to the manufacturers, who, through the backward state of the season found themselves overstocked and pressed for cash.
