Pratt, of Lin- coln, Neb., by which all diseases of the scalp, such as dandruff, hair falling out, baldness, ete., can be effectually cured and a new full growth of hair restored to bald heads—no matter how long vacant. There are a number of Omaha gentle- men whose hair is again sprofiting after having been subjected to the above treatment during the past thirty days. Messrs. Presson & Viney, the Omaha agents for Dr. Pratt’s discovery, ha: never advertised this wonderful dis- covery, for the reasorr that they prefer to wait until they obtain a few sample ex-bald heads to’ place on exhibition. These gentlemen are now at work on a number of prominent heads in Omaha and with what success can readily be seen by the disappearance of all gloss from the scalp. The discovery, al- though new, is at the sume time no ex- periment. A full growth of hair has been re- stored to many of the citizens of Lin- coln previous to its 1introduction in Omaha. Why the bald heads of Lin- coln should get ahead of the bald heads of Omaha seems strange. Thirty days treatment for eath year a man h:u bald igall that is required in order to obtain a front seat at a Black Crook performance without ridicule. Even those whose hair is falling out can now avoid the embarrassment of becoming bald. Adam Morrell, proprietor of the Mil- lard hotel barber shop, thinking his to- boggan slide was becoming too slick, investigated Dr, Pratt’s discovery, and now in addition to using the prepara- tion himself, is advising his friends to do likewise, and even goes so far as to try to sell them a bottle. Manuing, of Beav & Manning, the Boyd opera house barbers, had so much faith in the discovery that he purchased the agency for Minneapolis and left his partner tosell the preparation to his Omaha friends. As the discovery isan assured success, the Omaha agents, as soon as they be- gin to advertise 1t, will find they have their hands full.

THE WIFE OF A GREAT PRESIDENT. “Tom Kimball and Me"--Changes in the Union Pacifio=The B. & M. Circulars of Twb Different Dates—Other! 1tems, A Presidents Wife. Who would think that a representa- tive of the gentler sex, who resides in one of the most palatial residences of the city of Boston, and is surrounded with volumes of select literature, would give her attention to the brain-racking consideration of railroading—that is, the study of the railway world, with all its intricate problems? Yet, such 18 the case, in the wife of President Strong,of the Atchison,Topeka & Santa Fe. While in Omaha, several days ago, a reporter, in skirmishing for an interview with the latter, chanced to saunter into his private coach that was standing on the side track at the St. Paul depot. On entering, an elderly lady bearing all the marks of culture and refinement, was busily engaged in preparing manuscript. “‘Pardaon me, but is this Mrs. Strong?” “Yessir. Did you wish to see Mr. Strong?” The reporter replied in the affirma- tive. *Well, he has just umrped out to the tele, rx\p‘l office, but will soon return. Will you not be seated and await his ar rival?” ] The seribe gazed at the Turkish rugs, upholstery and richly furnished state- room of the car, and then dropped into a remave corner apparently lost in costly drapery. Satisfied that he had extended the ethics of even reportorial etiquette, he decided to lie in another ambush until the magnate put in ap- pearance, and devote his time to devis- ing means of escape in case of fire—by that dignitary. But Mrs. Strong tool a different view of the situation, as compared with most women, and, in short, the reporter found himself con- versing with a full-fledged railroad woman. Did she understand the situa- tion? Well, just as well as many a man who now reyels in the presidency of a trunk line. She was posted on the financial outlook, inter-state law, the presidents’ agreement, the stock mar- ket on Wall street, and in fact ever thing essential to a person high up in railroad cire She knows the techni- calities, and can answer questions per- taining to railrond matters in a lan- guage and with a degree of intelligence which would greatly test the ability of the best traffic managers to equal. After interviewing both l{)e presi- dent and his wife, the cheice between the two interviews for. publication r soived itself into a grammatical prob- lem with *‘gender” in the balance, and the old system was given procedure, the president’s versionsupplanting that of his learned wife. *x One day when H. A. Johnson, at that time assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific, was rushing to and froin the headquarters in & manner that attracted the attentien of his asso- ciates, one of the latterinquired of N what was the matter. Running his fin- gers through his disheveled locks and with the dignity of. a Spunish envoy, he exclaimed, **Adams is in Boston, Tom Potter is away, and nobody but me and Kimball o do the worl The stress which he laid upon ‘*‘me,” and the words spoken on that occasion elicited a hearty laugh from those who knew just how big & man “me” was at the time. * ' After o silence extending over a od of years, the curfew of the Bur- ngton is tolling. What does it m? That is the question which is whi-,, ced by many alip which uttered words of encouragement to President Perkins, when, at the head of a gigantic mo- nopoly, he was endeavoring to crush a resenting element of honest laborers. But what a change, and what a differ- ent meaning the circular conveyed which made 1ts appearance at the Bur- lington headquarters in this city Monday, as_compared with that which was directed to every in the building just one year The former was ‘‘on and y 1, 1889, your services will no be required;” the latter “stand by the Burlington and for those who do, promotion will be in order.” What a contrast! True, every clerk in the headquarters in Omaha remained at his post. But now the strike is a matter of history and the heads of the men that did stand by the Burlington are be- inning to fall like ripehed fruit when disturbed by an nut;nmml breeze. *% The general opinion is that General Manager Stone is largely to blame for the engineers’ strike on the Burling- ton, but an indiyidual, well up in rail- road circles, states that President Per- kins 15 the man who is responsible. He states that when the management of the Burlington first came to an issue with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engin- eers, Stone favored arbitration, and consulted President Perkins, The lat- ter not being cognizant of the situation, and not attaching any importance to the demands of the brotherbood, took the stand that the Burlington had no right to countenance any aggressive movement on the part of any of its employes in the light of an arbitration. The individual claims thut Stone, in the faca of his superior officer, roported the condition of affmirs, and plainly demonstrated that he:fuvored arbitra- tion, but. on the second issue, received no encouragement from President Per- kins. The result is histerical, and if the reports be true, it.cost the Burling- ton company #7,000,000to test the policy of President l’urkil:s. *w The fact that, ten days hence, the present official roster of the Union Pa- cifiec will be closely serutinized by the stockholders of the oompmnfv, has put every official of high rank on the anxious seat. Many areof the opinion that some radical changes will be made, and vhat the headquarters here will be the scene of official devastation. There are numerous rumors floating about the corridors concerning what Vice-Presi- deunt Holcomb will do, provided his past record meets with approval. Chief umong these, is that J. A. Munroe, general freight o, rent,will be uested 10 hand in his resignation and his place filled by J, S. Tebbetts, now assistant .geveral freight agent. The position now held by Tebbets is to be abolished. Conuected ~ with this is a rumor that Monroe or Tebbets may be transferred to the general managership of the Ove- rou Railway and Navigation company’s ines, but it is stated that an ecastern man will be called to that position, by an individual in a position to know. It is ulso stated that there will be a va- cancy at Salt Lake City, in the ofice now held by Assistant General Manager Cuming. The latter is among those mentioned for the mun- agership of the navigation lines, but ST AT S D M the fact that a good trafMc man is indis- pensible at that point, makes his chances bear but light upan the market. Atany rate a general revision of the official roster is anticipated, and that some heads will fall amid May flowers is a foregone conclusion in the minds of many. » ' There perhaps never was a time in the history of the lines westof the Mis- souri river when traffic was so light as at present. At nearly every point along the Union Pacitic box cars are quarantined and idle. The same may be said of the Burlington, and the Fre- mont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley. But the cause of this is merely one at- tributed to the companies themselves. ‘When the farmers of Nebraska were prepared to dispose of their grain crops, the eastern seaboard rates took a jump, which, coupled with a decline in the market, made 1t impossible for the pro- ducers to dispose of their crop and realize a legitimate remunera- tion for their labor and their investment. The result is that this high-handed conspiracy was carried to that extent that fully 88 per cent of the 1888 grain crop is in'the hands of the producers at the present time. The armer is now preparing for another harvest, and has no time to consider markets or rates, and in consequence empty and idle cars are embargoed along the various lines traversing the trans-Missouri territory. ——— Their Ship Towed by a Leviathan, The fishing schooner G. H. White re- turned from a halibut cruise in the North Pacific to-night, says a Port Townsend Correspondence of the Port- land Oregonian. Her master, Captain Charles Johnson, relates an exciteng adventure with a whale last Monday afternoon. The vessel was anchored on Flattery banks, seventy miles from shore, with all the crew out in five dor- ies catching halibut, when a school of five black whales came alongside. One of the school got entangled in the ves- sel’s cable, the anchor parted the vessel in tow of the monster, was taken at o rapid rate to the westward, the only persons on board being the captain and the cook, who were unable to stop his progress. . The whale became exhausted and brought the schooner around in acircle within fifty miles from where they started. The windlass was rigged and the vessel hauled alongside of the whale, which measured over eighty- four feet. With one turn the cable be- came disentangled on the whale’s flank, and the whale disappeared beneath the water. The captain and cook hoisted sail and returned for the boats, where the crews were safely found twenty-four hours later. The experience was the most e citing that has ever occured off Flattery Banks. The story is vouched for by all of the crew. —_— The Varieties of Butterflies., There are said to be more than one hundred thousand varieties of butter- flies. One of the finest collections of butterflies in the world is owned by Berthold Neumogen, of New York. Only two others in the world can compare with it. Oneof them is in the British Museum and the other belongs to pub- lic institution in Paris. ey A Connecticut Exile. Dr. E. B. Middlebrook, who has been an exile from Connecticut for seventeen years because of contempt of court, died in New York a few nights ago. In 1872 Dr. Middlebrook had a difficulty with a lawyer and struck him in court. For this he was sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and undergo an imprisonment of thirty days in the common jail. Dur- ing his period of exile Dr. Middlebrook never visited his native state. ——— A Case o' Insanity, Cnicago Tribune: A peddler caused a tremendous crowd to collect on Broad- way in New York city last Friday by standing on the sidewalk and trying to work the pigs-in-clover puzzle. He was fined $3 and costs. The lightness of the fine was due to "the fact that the poor fellow was simply insane, like the crowd that was looking on.
