Railway MODERN METHOD OF ADVERTISING AGENTS Unfon Pacific's New Serics of Tourists' Pamphicts Just Is- sued by the Passenger Department. The Literature has been pronounced a good ataff but a bad crurch—fascinating, cheering and enlivening, tending to promote life, health and an equable mind in those who pursue it for pleasure, but woe to those who are dependent upon their brains for daby bread—thrice woe if others are depende upon them, Coleridge advised never pursuc literaturo as a trade, Hawthorne wrote: “God keep me from ever being reaily a writer for bread.” Lamb exclaims, 10 a lotter to Bar- ton: “What! Throw yourself on the world without any rational plan of support beyond what the chance of employment of book- | sellers would afford you! Throw yourself, rather, my dear sir, from the steep Tarpeian rock slap-dash, heaalong upon iron spikes. bave known many authors want bread: ropining, others enjoying the sweet of a spunging house; all agreeing thoy rather have been tailors, weay ers, what not, rather than the things they were! * * * to drudge your brains for pots of ale and breasts of muttor; to change your freo thoughts and voluntary numbers for un- gracious taskwork! Tho booksellers hato us.’" At Iiterary dinners the hiealth of Napoleon, who shot a publisher, will ever be a standiug tonst; and legends will continue to be re- peated as to the existence of a precious edi tion of the in which the misprint occurs ublishers ana sinners,” ‘This only by way of introduction. While it is admittedly true “of making books there 13 no end,” and authors are lost every day iu the whiripool of oblivion, still there is i certain class of writers who, by 9 the very nature of their voeation, give to the world under the guise of ‘adyertisement” certain works each year, which if freed from the touch of business would be gems m their way quito worthy of a placo alongside our Chaucer, our Homer, our Spenser, the miuor poems of Milton, the “Arabian Nights,” and such old_good-natured speculations as Plu- tarch’s “Morals.” And these writers who do not look to the publishers for an_existence, who are beyond the fads and fancies of the veading public, who do not tremble at the judgment of the itics but receive their monthly checks with v assurance of having earned them, if not by the sweat of their face at least by their capacity for rustling, us a class may bo denominated under the general head of “rail- rond advertising agents.? And these potential factors in the suc- cess of a corporation love sum- mer with an infinito tenderness, for it brings about a change in their daity lives, a letting up in the manufacture of new words and fiue phrases which are woven into_the story of how to reach the mountains of Nid- nod, or the lakes of Rest via the Great In- terdenominational Trunk railway, the overland route to the Golden Gate, The books of travel, “Guides to Tourists,” inl leafy June or turgid July, and the weary hterary lights of the greut rail- way systems joiu their familics by “Moorland, brake or fell,” to listen to the diapasous of the universo until the harvest moon warns them that enother season of work has commenced, the winter of their discontent. 4 But in all the wide range of railroad liter- ature issued this year,tho recent publications of the Uulon Pacific system descrve more than a mere mention enpassant. Comprising a round dozen pamphiets they show an indi- viduality that is delightfully rofreshing. The eye which has detected the beautics of the country traversed by the Union Pacific system, aud the brain which has placed the pictures graphically before tho reader, here and there giving touctes of description worthy an Irving or Dumas, belong to the chief of tho literary department of the Union Pacitie, Ben H. Birrow: He has brought to his worl an_analytical mind, trained in the channels of noiwspa per life with a discriminating sense sur- mounting all, rare even in these fiu de sieclo days. A close observer, a student 1 the broad domain of literature, and one of the most companionable of men, he has done & work for the road, whose servant he is, which canuot fail to win'the appreciation of 'his su periors, And 1 railronding, as well as in every other trade ond profession, it is the recognition a man recoives for houest worlk that counts. “The series complete, which deserve a place in our libraries, for there is much that is ex- cellent, readable and iostructive in them, are. ‘“Alaska,” “Oregon and ‘Washington,” “Utah,” daho and Montana,” “California” and “Colorado,” ail upon the'same general plan as to sizo and shape, making a sexette of companion books that will be in great demand now that they are ready for distribution. “A elimpso of the great Salt Luke” is largor than the other books mentioned, filled with cxcellent read- ing matter aud_illustrated profusely, a well told story of o yachting cruise on tho mys- terious inlanc sen, the drawings having boen mado by the well known artist, Mr. Alfred Lambourne of Salt Lako City.' *From Sum- merland to the American Alps” is the title of an inviting sketch sctting forth the de- lights of the Texas Panhandle Route, and the result of Mr. Barrows' visit to the southern country last fall, where ho gath- ered material for this siory of the south land. Western Resorts” is tho'most volumninous book of those issued by the compuuy and gives in & condensed form, handsomely illustrated, the points of interest, the routes, and all the information tho traveler requires of the won- derful country touched by the Union Pacific. Many readers of Tug Ber will recall with a great deal of yonuno pleasure, the column which Mr. Bar- rows used to edit in tho old Republican days under the pleasing caption of “Driftwood.” Here oan was always sure of finding something that would take the sting from life, something that would temper the ‘“‘carkiug cares” of this work-a-day world of ours. Breezy in his doscriptions, using his pen at times as the Italian uses his stiletto, bitting here and puncturing the bubble there. About that weckly column there was a delicious fascination. Although romoved from the surroundings of the past, Mr. Barrows still has the vivid power of making word _pictures as you will readily discern in the following description of the Muir glacier, which s only oue of countless excellent bits in the new books and which the author felicitcusly calls A MENORY PICTURE, It s the experlence of those who huve wan- dered over n( lunds, thut in the quiet of home, when one has resumed his place once mors amidst fumillar surronndings, th mains one particulurly delightful men Bome one pecullar spot or sceno which stund, hnfhlly outin the windinz story of travel. and 50 “ub'des a precious possess| forever.

L i 7 BEET SUGAR, The Superior Advantages of Omaha For n Factory. It should nov and will not be difficult for Omaba to secure u beet sugar factory, says tne Grand Island Beet Su, Enterprise, if only an erort is made in that diection. Omaha not only enjoys the distinction of be- ing the largest city in Nebraska, but is also the “Gate City” to the great northwest. It hus many advantages over small towns in poirt of advantage for o beet-sugar factory. It should not be dificult to secure fully 5,000 acres of land in close proximity to the city upon which to grow bests, and as it will re- quire fully ten dollars an acre of hand labor to grow and harvest the beets roady for the factory, this vast amount of help could e se- cured i the eity of Omaha alone, requiring the distribution of fully £0,000 principally during the season of school vacation, thus affording an opportunity for hundreds of school-bovs to earn from tifty cents toa dol- lar a day during tho season of thinning out the beets, as it Is the custom of paying boys all they can earn, without regard to age or size. Some boys here at Grand Island are on the men’s list. Such boys as show a di position to be ndustrious and perform their work well are found to be very desirable for this kind of work. If Omaha would make an effort in this direction it certainly would be attended with success, as Omaha always secures what she undertakes to get. Again Omaha is just the place fora large refinery, where the raw sugar from fully twenty-five factories could be refined at a much less expense than can be done in the factory. The sugar then is in tho natural trade center for distribution. This is the custom as carried on now in both France and Germany, where many of tho raw fac- tories work from 300 to 600 tons of beets every twenty-four hours and soms even more. We hope tosee an effort made in Omaha to securo a beet sugar factory, and with the effort secureone. This will en- courage other towns, not only in Nebraska, but also in Dakota and [owa to secure raw Dbeet sugar factories, and thus enable Omaha to add a refinery to its many other industries and become the distributing point for sugar, e Parents Read This.

James Casoy, proprietor of the Hotel Casey of this city, returned Sunday night from Dead- wood, 8. D., where he had just concluded negotiations for the erection of a large hotel i that city. The building is to be of brick and stone, five stories in height and will be 150x100 feet 1n dimensions, There will bea street on each of the four sides of the house, which will be supplied with all modern ap: pliunces for hotel comfort. The citizens of Jeadwood have given a cash bonus of §0,000 towards the hotel, which is to bo completed und in operation in ouo year. Mr. Casey bus given bouds that the house shall cost at’ leust £100,000 and the contracts for its erection were completed before ho left D The house is to bo known as the Hotel C and will probably be under the direct supor- vision of Mr, Casey himself. ——- You Can Reach aratogn 9:55 a. m., New York 2:10p, m., Boston 8:40 p. m., Portland 8:00 p. m., And iatermediate points at a co spondingly convenient hour the uext day after leaying Chicago by taking the **Boston and New York Special,” leayv- ing Chicago daily at 10:30 a. m. via the Lake Shore route, Five other splendid trains also leave at convenient hours.

B WHERE THE MONEY GOES, Treasurer Snyder's Report on the Dis- position of County Funds, The semi-annual regort of County Treas- urer Snyder, filed with the clerk of the board of county commissioners last Saturday fur- nishes considerable food for reflection, This report {s for the six months ending July 1, and shows the financial condjtion of Douglas county on that date. It also shows the amount on hand January 1, 1891, from what sources money received since thén has come aud the debts that have been liquidat- ed, togethor with the balances on hand in the several funds, During the six months the receipts were as follow. On hand January 1, 1891, Taxes collected., . School lands, prin School lunds, interest ... Misceilaneous collections. . Miscellaneous fees o e Omaha city tax coliected. .. ... ..

Total. oo 0,608 88 Since the above statement was made up, some of the funds are not in as good shape as on that date. Owing to the heavy court expenses the county fund is about exhausted, and war- rants will be stamped, “Not paid for want of funds.” When so stamped they will be reg- istered and draw interest atthe rate of 7 per cent per annum until paid. The road funa is also in a somewhat depleted condition as the payment of 10,000 has made a big hole in the surplus that was on hand. The bridge fund shows a balance of £, on hand, but there will not be so large a ance after pavment has been made for the construction of the 5,000 culvert over Mill creck av Plorence, the contract for which is now in the hands’ of the county commission- ers. Lhe county treasurer does not view this financial condition with any degree of alarm, but instead takes rather a hopeful view of the situation, though he is of the opinion that the county will have to run rather close until after the delinguent tax sale, The leavy for the vear amounted to $i81,- 283,70, and'it is estimated that about one- half of the amount has been collected. Of that remaining due and delinqueat, compar- ing this with former years, 4 per cent will be collected before the sale. The sale will bring in & good round sum, and it is thought that the amount will run the county through until the new levy is available, If it should not, the county would pav the seven per cent interest on the warrants not taken up. Regavd‘ng the warrants issued now and not puid, all of the county offivials regard them as a good financal investment for the county, as they draw only seven per cent an- nual interest, and that from the date when presented to the treasurer for puyment, while the taxes that are delinquent and unpaid draw ten per cent. PRl 0 The evils resulting from habitual costive- ness are many and serious; but the use of harsh, drastic purgatives is quite as danger- ous. In Aver’s Pills, however, the patient bas a mild but effective aperient, superior to all others, especially for family use. - ©Y WANT. Price Cuts no Figur: in the City Hall Furniture,* The council committeo on buildings and property will report in favor of another cost- ly experiment at the meeting of the council tonight. and there will be a row bigger than the one kicked up over the reportin favor of purchasiug a few high priced smoke cousumers unknown to fame for the city hall. This time the promised trouble arises over the committee's peculiar mothod of getting plans and bids for furnishing the new city hall. Some time ago the committee, which is composed of Osthoff, Tuttle and Spacht, pib- lished a call for plans and bids for furr.ish- ing the new city I. Thav's all there was to it. Parties wishing to hand in the furnish- tigs were required to visit tho city, make their own sketches of the building ana fix up a plan of their own for fitting it up. T'wo bids have been receiv Oue of them is from the Aundrews company of Chicago, and the other is by Mr. Hakeman who hus an office in this city. No one knows what these bids aro and i¢’ would not make any difference if they did, The plans arc doubtless very different so that the prica cuts no figure. Itis a compotition of plans and not of prices. There will be a kick when these bias aro reported to the council. Some of the mem- bers will insist that the pians for the fur- nishiog be decided upon and that all of the bidders be required to namo their figures for one kind of work. This, they claim, is the only way to get any show of competition. Thore are a number of tirms in the city who want to bid on the work but don't feel like spending soveral hundred dollurs in propar- ing skotehes and plans without any assur- ance that they will be considered ot all, - Bought Cheap Watches. Two complaints have been filed against Sam Snyder ana M. Golden, the proprictors of the lower Farnam street auction joint. In both instances the complaining witnesses ure vietims. James Gladwin alleges that he was induced to give #15 for a ladies’ gold wateh and chain that was “‘guaranteed’’ to be strictly fivst- class, but that was really brass of the poor- est quality, Ho was assured that a lady had paid £150 for the property, but was compelled 10 leave it there to be sol Poter Hartwik gave 815 for a gentlomon's gold watch and chain and a pair of cuff but- tons, Howas told that the property had cost § and was left there to be sold at auction, — - ; To the admirer of an extra dry wine,Cook’s Sparkling Imperial recommends itself.

Wigghus deputy collector of in- ternal revenue, is nouan Apollo, but no one has suspected that hewas homely enough to scare people out of tawn. It appears, how ever, that Mr. Wiggmns has actually accom- plished the feat of ‘Yeightening a citizen out of the city. The man In question was engaged in ‘‘but. ter making" at his (pluce near Thirty-third and Jackson streets’ He claimed to make tho buttar out of cow's milk, but the _revenue dopartment beeame suspicious of the product, and Mr. Wiggins, accompanied by another inspector, dropped 1n on Mr, Warren at his butter shop ono evening and took charge of about five pounds of the alleged butter. Mr. Warren asked them what they weant, and Mr. Wig- gins informed him that he was in the employ of the United States revenue department. Do you want me to go nlong with you to see tho butter tested!” asked the butter maker. **When we get ready for you we will come and get you,’" was the significant reply. This 18 ' the story as told by War- ren to his neighbor just ~ before leaving tho city. That evening he disap- peared and has not returned since. His family waited a couplo of weeks in vaiu for his réturn but finally came to the conclusion that ho had gone to stay. The wife and children have gone to Council Bluffs to live with friends, “1 think it was a mean trick in Wiggins to scare my tenant out of town,” said Mr. Thomas Gray, who owns the house whero Warren lived, “fHo was my only, good tenant, and an honest man." “Did you ever see him make butter?” “Yes, I saw him there at work.” “Did he make the butter out of milk?? *‘He made several different grades of buttet. I think the best butter he made was made from milk. Tho poorer butter, I guess, had some lard mixed with 1t, but he sold 1t' very cheap. It was pure. It might have been made of skim-milk and lard, but 1t was pure butter all the same. And then he sold it so chean. - Whose business was it if it was made of lard just so it was clean and he sold it cheap! Wiggins hud no business to scaro my tenant out of towun.” gl 3. “eliahiny GEMAN DAY, 1t Will Be Observed in Omaha with Great Pomp.

The Pioncer association of Union Pacific railway employes will celobrate thesixteenth anniversary of the organization sometime next month by holding a picnic at Fremont. The dato has not yet been defin’tely fixed, but will probably be the 23ta. An luvitation will be extended to all of the employes in the shops and offices and the company will fur- nish a special train for the oceasion. Tae Ploncer assoclation was organized in August, 1575, at a meeting teld in the gen- eral oftices of the company, At that meeting there were present S. H. H. Clark, A. M. Collett, George B. Stratman, Thomas H. Dailey, John Gordon, Willlam Dwyer, C. B! Havens, Johin Curtis and several others. The association was duly organized and tho pusposes of the assoclation woro decluved to to unite perpetually all employes of the Union Pacific railway company who were of good moral character who bad been in the cmploy of the company ten years or more; to give all moral and matérial aid in its power to members; to cultivate friendly and social relations botween members, for his- torical or any other purpose which o within the scope and meaning of the associ tion. The society became Union Pacific affairs recognition by the offieals. Picnics and en- tertainments of all kinds without number were given, and during its earlier vears the society flourished and its membérship in- creascd rapidly. 1t was regarded an honor to bo a member of the association, and men looked forward to the time when they would have completed their tenth year in tho ser- vice of the company aud becomo cligible to membership, The admission fee and dues were placed at a merely nominal figure, but there was always enough mouey in the treas- ury to foot the bills when any entertainment decided upon. When one of the members took unto him- self a life partner the rest of the membors did their lovel best to give him a goud send- off. When death seized upon a member the remaining members paid him the last tributo of respeet. Duriug recent years, however, the associa- tion has fallen into innocuous desuetude and all interest scomed to have died out. Some of the older members decided that it would never do to iet the old association dio out, and a meeting was held lnst Monday at which the organization was rejuvenated and put upon a solid basis again. New officers wore elocted, and the sixteenth anniversary will be celobrated in fitting style. The new ofticers are as foliows : Stratman, president; A, A president; James secrctary Rico, treasurer.
