A, Orchard Has a fine line of reception chairs, fancy rockers, ladies’ desks and ladies’ glove cases just the thing for an elegant Christmas present, — The Winter of Our Content {8 the title of a recent charming paper l"i' that brillant writer Charles Dudley Varner, wherein the glories of the Pacific const, as n winter resort, are tnost graphically deseribed. The Amer- can people are beginning to understand that the Puget Sound country is one of our most splendid posseseions and that he name of the ‘‘Mediterranean of the acific” is o happy title not misapplied. In speaking of Mount Tacoma, Senator George F. Edmunds says: “I would be willing to go 500 miles again to seo that scone. The continent 18 yet in ignorance of what, will be one of "the grandest show places as well a8 sanitariums. If Switzerlund s rightly called the playground of Europe, I am satisfied that round the base of Mount Rainier will come 4 prominent place of resort, nol for America only, but for the world be- sides, with thousands of sites for build- ing purposes, that are nowhere excelled for the grandeur of the view that can be obtained (rom them, with topographical features that would make tfm most per- fept system of drainage both possible and ensy, and with a most agreeable and health giving climate.” Thousands of delightea tourists over the Union Pacific tthe past year bear ample testimony to tthe beauty and majesty of this new empire of the Pacific northwest. Ll OMAHA'S BONDS. They Aro Not Affected by the Failure of 8. A. Kean & Co. of Chicago. Tue Ber's telegraphio columns yesterday contained the announcement of thesuspension of the banking house of S, A. Kean of Chi 0ago, This concern had previously handled bonds of this city, and accordingly City Treasurer Rush was asked whether the failure in any manner affected the finances of the town. “Not a cont’s worth,” was the reply. “Wo ars high and dry. On October 161 sold S. A. Kean & Co., $175,000 worth of bonds at & figure of $08 in_excess of that offered by Blako, Bruce & Co. of Boston, I forwarded the bonds to the Chemical National bank of New York. It is to them I send bonds and order_them held in trust until they are paid for, Kean delayed in taking the bonds, for several reasons. In the meantime, however, ho was advertisiug to soll tho bouds and { knew it was only in that way that he could expect to handle them. I then wrote to Blake, Bruce & Co, of Boston, telling them they might have the bonds at their figures, they being the secoud highest, at $65 less than Kean had offered, and the bonds were accepted.” A Dr. Birney cures catarrh, Bee bldg —— The Shining Lights Of the old world, soldiers, statesmen and men of letters, all write in the most extravagant praise of our facilities for travel in America. And we are entitled to the praise. On every English line there is the same old dusty lunch coun- ter, known by all tourists for these many years. Not éven a drink of water; nor a crust of bread tobe had on the train. No wonder our transatlantic friends ex- press amazement when they sit down to & hotel dinner on one o{ the palace dining cars on the Union and Southern Pacific railways—an arrangement which is the most perfect in the country today.

THE MORSE DRY GOQDS CO. pniifin st A BONDED WAREHOUSE. 275.00 to sacrifice was ever There has 11 there be any duplicates One of the Needs of Omaha's Business Men at Present. The attention of Collector Alexander was called to the statement in Tur Bee's Wash- ington letter Wednesday to the effect that an effort was being made to establish a bonded warehouse at Omahba and that the details were being effected. “Yes," said Mr. Alexander, ‘I have been trying for the past six months to have a bonded warchouse established at this point, but the trouble has been that the government requires & bonded warchouse to occupy an entire building, so as to be separate from any interference by outside parties, I think this objection has been overcome, Mr. Bushman, who is erecting a brick warehouse on Leaven- worth street, between Tenth and Eleventh, has the first story completed, and has built 1t in accordanco with suggestions from me, mmdnr one portion entirely separate from the balance of the building by means of solid brick walls, so that there ?s but one entrance to the portion designed for @& warehouse, This entrance is convenieutof access from the railroad tracks and this office will have charge of it. “I'here is a pressing necessity for a bonded warehouse at this'point. There has always been difficulty in getting the owner of any desirable building to bond his entire building in return for the small revenue he would de- rive from it from storage fees. If the pres- ent scheme succeeds it will enable Omana wholesalers to buy goods in large quantities and store them in the warchouse until they need them, paying the duties on the goods as they are removed. “‘Mr. Bushman has gone to Washington to advocate the scheme and complete all the arrangements.” Dr. Birney cur rh, Bee bldg. The Wabash has placed on sale round- trip tickets, with choice of routes, to all the winter resorts of the south.

No definite action was taken. ‘While the board was in session Mr. Davis stated that he had just been informed that R. Stevens & Son, who hada $12,500 contract with the city had drawn amounts aggregating about $10,000 while clams for labor, ete., re- mained unpaid, Several members suggested that no more money be paid the contractors until the mat- or was adjusted. e —— e Marked Interest is now shown by eastern pwple in the settlement of Oregon and Washington, g\rficuh&rly that region adjacent to uget Sound. The reason for this is the almost unlimited resources that have lately been opened up, and the surpris- ing growth of Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and other cities and towns along Puget Sound. The Union Pacific on account of its fast time, short line, through Pullman palace sleepers, free reclining chaircars, elegant dining cars, and free Pullman colonist sleepers, from the Missouri river, is the favorite route to this region, and tickets via this line should always be asked for, * For complete information relative to this remarkable section, time of trains, rates, pamphlets, ete., call on your near- est ticket agentor address the under- signed.
