THE OMAHA DAILY BEE SUNDAY, JUNE DOWN AMONG THE COACHERS Where and How the Union Pacific Makes Its Gilded Flyers, EVOLUTION OF THE THE LOG. The Rise, Progress and Decline of Old No. 7-How a Lost Car was Found After Having Been Appropriated. Down on the hottoms, at the foot of Cass street, enclosed by a high board fence, which 18 painted a dull, cheerless brown, there is o beehive of industry, the interior of which is but little known to the ordinary citizen who flaily plods along the busy, bustiing thorough- farcs of the business portion of Omaha, ‘This is the shops of the Union Pacific rail- must pass in- road, and to reach them spection at the outer g turued over to John Wilson, assistant supoc- you Intc t of m After being ushe business s of mat given a passport, which allow fepartment to department, where you ¢ the workings of the pondero machines which manufactu the drivewheel of & locomotiy tack used in upholst Probably in_this great workshop, where hundreds of skilled mechanics toil, there is no face of more intercst than the car shops, located in the extreme northiwestern corner of the grounds occupied by the shops, Tooking at them from the oxterfor these buildings, which painted the same dull color, prescut a cheerless and forbidding appedrance. But when once inside the scene is changed and it is a pleasure to watch the rough lumber, as it passes from hand hand until, at last as a result of the labor of human hinds, you_observe a beautiful c capable of : its lond of human live perfect sufety, The working force of the men, s divided iuto seven gan v which A. M.

Each gaug of men is in charge of a foroman, 3. M. Rice having control of the carpenters! J. Stout, the painters; J. W. McCune, the woodworkers; (. . Stratman, the up- holstd R Andcrson, the repairers; George Andreen, the silver-platers, and Jucob Neff the truck and airbrake men. ‘The buildings in_which these men work covers a space of 170x400 feet and are two storics high. In building a car, J. W. McCune goes to the lumber yard, solects hiis timbers for the frame work and has them taken into the shops, where his men work them down to the prog them up and then turn them over to the carpenters who arc under the directions of J, M.

The history of old No. 7 best illustrates this. In 1867 the Omaha shop turned out No, 7, its fivst pussenger conch, In the couches were painted 4 bright this conch, with its gaudy e gunt interior und its low envy of all 1t carried Georgo Fran Train to the coust, and when the offici came on from tho cast it was always at their service. At last, however, the “high-declks' beeame fashionable and No. 7 was put on as a smoker and for a time performed its duty in this capacity. ‘The next thing complaints commenced to come in and there was i crymg demand for o better car. Then it was rinsecond class for a time, and even second class v for botter accommodations. was to take the car into the shovs, give it a thorough overhauling and send it up into the mountains to run on some of the ne pranches, where its style was satisfactory to the old miners until people from tho offcte cast sot- tled in that locality and objected to its pass Ing through the towns, The uhl rel then put into the cmigrant service, where for a fow yeavs it was considered good enough, Ouce ‘more, however, there was a kick, and even the people from the other side of the ocean refused to to ride in the old pioneer, and it was accordingly turned over to the working crews, where it is now being used. The history Of this car is the history of all other cars, and thus it is readily seen” that a coach goes out of style long before it wears out. Freight e #£0 through about the samge ex- perience. Seven years ago standard cars had @ capacity of ten fons. Now they are consid- ered useless and the car with a ‘carrying ca- pacity of 500,000 pounds is the standard. Bag- Ridge und exXpross cars go on forever, tho style never changing and many of the cars t went out on the first overland trains are in use today, though the ve been repaived and l\‘[).l'llll d times without number, It is not genorally supposed that a car can be lost, 80 porfect is tho g, but sucl 18 the case, Thw WO @ pussenge car wus turned out of the shop and in one of the boards on the side there was a knot that when dressed down represented to some tent o human fuce, This wis sent out in au overlund train and in some manner, in switehing in Salt Lake City, was left out of the train, A huut was at’ once instituted, but it could not be found. Tracers were sent over the entire system, but the car failed to show up and in the company’s office it was charged up as lost, it having been supposed that it was \lmglll in & wreck and burned. Five years later, us Mr. Collett was walking down the yards, his eyes caught o peculiny figure on a car that belonged to an eastern road and calling sev- eral of his old-time men about him, they at once decided that it was the car that had been lost for so many years, It was at once conflscated and upou the eastern road being notified, no demand was made for the return of the car, The pattern room of the shops is a most interesting department, It is situated on the sccond floor of the buildi furthest east and in it, in miniature, is every portion of every stylo of car that has been built in Omaha since the shops were established. In the rear of this, onc finds the silver plating department, whero George Andreen und his trusty assistants labor. To be a skillful plater, requires a man to kvow something of chemistry, as chemicals in proportions must be used in the electro-baths, which consist of huge tubs filled with solu- tions. If silver plating is to be used a sheet of pure silver oue-sixtecuth of an inch in thickness is suspended from a copper rod near the side of the tub, while from auothe yod of similar material the articlo to be lated is suspended, The electric current is en turned on aud in @ few hours the plate of ¢ vor has disappearcd, but it has not gone out of existence. It has formed a coating | over a window stop, & serew head or a thousand and one other things that go to beautify the interior of first class passenger con The work of gold plating is performed in the same manner, though not to so great an extent, After coming from the bath these articles have a dull appearance, but this soon disappears after they have passed through { the hands of the burnishers, For a time after establishin disposition of the shavings, quantitios dafly accumulate, question, they are now rew 1 machin he shops, the which huge a serious of was o 8 But by an_ingenious contrivance, disposed of. _Over each an open-mouthed pipe has placed, These pipes pass through tho upper floors where they connect with @ larger pipe, in_which there isa huge fan.

The suction draws the shavings into the pipe and carries them to the furnace in the rear of the buildings | where the two great 850 horse power engines are located, Fatal nccidents have been exceptionally few, and the death rate in the shops has | been less per capita than in any other manu- facturing establishment in the city. The first man _killed was Ole John- son, o Swede.

A movement is now on foot to fill up the taiiors’ union and make it one of tae strongest labor organizations in the city Last season, with a full fledged strike on its hands, and the members who were out ot work to support, the treasury was depleted and a disruption was _threatcued.

Some of the Things They Have Been Doing Recently, CHILD'S HOSPITAL, THE CLARKSON A Place Where the Little Ones Are Tenderly Cared For—Rev. Wil- lard Scott on Doane Col- lege—Other Matters. A smell of chloroform, a slip half-way through the open door, thrae doctors aproned with pure white cloth bending oveér the raised couch, justa glimpse of a naked arm lying still along the white sheot, This passing glance one may get perhaps as he enters the hallway on the first floor of the Clarkson memorial hospital on Dodge street.

Here at the side is the water table with 188" array of tin basins and towels. An abundance of light comes through the north windows. The room is bare of farniture, an oilcloth mat and the doctors’ high stools completa the olitfit.
