Something for the Ladies to Think About. Inlast Sunday’s iscue of THE BrEe there appeured an article over the sig- nature of Mr. Davenport, THE B’ commercial editoradvising the citizen to patrenize home manufa ies. The also appeared an editorial upon this same subject saying if Omaha people would pur s home made good: would do more to help bring mant turies here and increase the popuiation, as well as business gencraily, more than any other one thing. THE BEE editorially has made men- tion of this several times recently and it has set the people to thinking. Is there uny good reason why people of Omaha and Nebraska should buy goods that are manu: ured outside of the state? Can any citizen give a good reason for his wife using foreign manufactured souy Soap is made right here in Omaha and in several other pluces in the state, and the Omaba made soap is just as cheap, will last just as long and do just as much work us any other soap sold on the mar- Kk Take for example the Union Laundry soap, which is an Omaha soap equal to anything offered by any of the retail merchants, In 1857 the W. A. Page Soap compan came to Omaha and began the manufs ture of what is kpoown as the Union Laundry soup, as well as about thirty other brands, inciuding fine toilet soap. They purchased the old Boyd pucking cory strects startea up their factory with a capa of 1,000 boxes a month, and it has since been gradually increased to its presont acity of 5,000 boxes per month. This has caused an increase in the wages weekly distributed to their em- ployes, who in turn spend it in Omaha. And the $50,000 which is yearly spent Dy the employes of this institution helps overy citizen along, no matter how little it may be. Suppose every family in Omaha used the W. A. Page Soap Co.’s Omaha made, Union laundry soap, the consequence would be that instead of this firm sup- plying only about half of the soap used here, they would supply all and pro- portionately would increase their help and their pay roll also. Who would be benefited? There is nothing that will help build up Omaha more than purchasing home manufactured articles, no matter what they may be, - M.

All that was mortal of Clark Woodman was laid to rest yesterduy afternoon in the benutiful city of tho dead at Forest Lawn with the solemn and impressivo services of the Episcopal ritual. The remains of the deceased arrived from Chicogo at 10 o'clock in the forenoon over the Burlington, accompaniel by Mr. Hugh G. Jlark, who had started for Chicago immedi- ately on hearing of tho death of his old friond. A hearse was in waiting at the depot, and the casket was at once taken to the late residence of tho deceased, at 337 South Thirty-seventh streot, where the funeral took place at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The board of trade, of which Mr. Wood- man had been an active member, was repre- sented by the following committee, who at- tended in_a body: Samuel Cotner, C. F. Goodman, Samuel Orchurd, Edwin Davis, . P. Kirkendall, H.'T. Clarke, J. A. Couner ana J. B. Christian. Scores of the leading business men of the ity among whom were many of the older esidents of Omaba gathered to pay their tribute of respect to the memory of a valued citizen, The wind blew sharply from the northwest, driving before it occasional dashes of rain, but naught in the depressing weather could deepon the gloom or intensify the sorrow that pervaded all hearts. Tho remains rested in a massive broad- cloth metallic-lined casket, unadornea save by rich handles of oxvdized silver. It was surrounded and partially hidden by a wealth of rarely beautiful floral offerings, tho tributes ~ of rich and poor alike. Suspended abovo tho casket was a crescent of white roses, the offering of the servants of the Woodman household. On a pedestal at the head was a cross of tio same flowers, sent by Oscar and Robert Whitelaw, business associates of the de- ceased. W. H. Alexander sent a beautiful tributc, representing an open bible, and upon page appeared “Matt. xxv : 34-40.” vheel was the offering of Hugh G. hero was such a profusion of beau- ws and clusters of roses that there seemed scarcely room for all, The seryices at the house were conducted by Rev. Willard Scott, as Dr. Duryea, pastor of tho First Congregational church, of which deceased was a trustee, was out of the city. The clorgyman spoke of the liberality of “the deceased toward all tha churenes, and the honest tears shed in_sincere sorrow by the employes of the linsced oil works built and operated by the deceased silently but eloquently told that s kinduess and gener- osity had not been alone extended o tho church organizations, The pall bearers wer Kountze, A. P. Hopkir George ‘A. Hoagland, Brady and C. S. Harris, Rev. . J. Mackay, rector of All Saints, conducted the servicds at the grave, whither the remains were followed by a very lengthy cortege. arl, Herman s Squires, Ritehie, J.

Did the Union Pacific Old Timers Enjoy Their Annual Picnic? five hundred people, representing the Union Pacitic Pioneer associntion and their families, filled a special tram of ten coaches that pulled out of the Union depot at §:30 o'clock yesterday morning bound for Fre- mont for the annual complimentary outing and picnic tendered by the company. Theodoro Livingston, the grizzied old vet- eran who bas pulled Union Pacific trains ever sinco the company has had anamo for its cars or a track_for them to run over, was at the throttle of No. 826, and ho nover had load for which he entertained kindlior fecl- mgs. ‘Tho run out was slow, as they were fre- quently sidotracked, and it was™ 11:30 w I'remont was reached. This was, of course, displonsing to * who holds' the record between Grand Island and the river for bringing in the fast mail in about as many minutes as there are miles between the two points, but he got in ahead of the pa on the way home and the way the 826 had to hump herself was a caution to victims ot rheumatis Ten ye nger s of continuous service in the om- ploy of the cumpany are the credentials thut render applicants eligible for membership in the association, which has 150 names on its rolls. ~Of these 135 were on hand yesterday. [ Nichols, = general superintendent of the road, had his spbcial car bitched onto' the train and wont along with the rest of the bovs. Harry Gilmore, superiatendent of the Mis- souri Pucific, was also there, and he scemea to have as much fun as anybody. Amone the real old timers were IS. Dunn, A, M. Abhott and George Stratton, all of ' whom have been in the employ of the company sinco 1867, when tho road was not completed. Stratton is president of the association sim: because the members wouldw’'t accept nation, which was tendered some time ago.” J. A.'Lilly, J. M. Rice and D.

At'Fremont, Mayor Fried formally ex- tended to the Visitors the freedom of the oity, and presented them with a gilded key, fully three feet long, that was tne “Open Sesame" to the beautiful city park and every- thing that surrounded it. Many of the citi- zens joined ures ‘of the day which ncluded games and dancing. The ecxcursionists left for liome at 5 o'clock, and ut 6:45 the train rolled into the union depot.

PR L DEATH AND DESTRUCTION. Howling Winds and the Earthquake's force Combine Against Man, Sr. Pienne, Martinique, Aug. 22.—The full extent of Tuasday's culamity cannot yot bewe determined. From many parts of the Isiand only vague and indefinite reports have so far been recerved. The mountain roads were in many instances obstructed by fallen timbers and other debris, thus rendering many vile lages oxtremely dificult of access. Every fresh report brings details of the universal havoe and devastation wrought by the fury of the elements. The hurricane struck the island about 7 0'clock Tuesday night. It cone tinued to rage till nearly 11 o'clock. Hardly had the terrific storm blown away when & sharp carthquake shock added to the horrop of the night. Many of the superstitious blacks verily thought the end of the world was at hand. It is impossivle to convey an adequate idoa of tha terror and suffering of Tuesday night, People flocked to the open spaces and spent the long hours till daylight in sieepless sus- pense. They feared another shock of tha carthguake. The morning brought littld sense of relief. On all sides the evidence of destruction greeted their anxious eyes, and as deatb after death was reported the awful character of the disaster was made more and more manifost. Then news began to com from other parts of the island. E\'cr\'whl.'lgM the same dreadful tale of suffering and 1o and death was repeated. No place on the island so far heard from has escapod without serious damage, - It is impossible as yet to give any estimate of the money value of the damage to crops, forests, houses and shipping. Tho_gran total will be something enormous, Neithey can it vet be told how ruany people perisned. On Tuesday the indications were that some sixty 1o one huudred had lost their lives, he death roll had amounted 1t 250 met instang bable tuat more aceurate reports will add still more names to the list of the death, o attempt has been made to ascertaln the number of those who were injured by falling walls and falling deoris, but ‘the provabuity is that thousands reccived injuries more of less sevious, Efforts are being made every repair the damage. Here m St. Picrre the first endeavor is to got new roofs on the ouildings, for hardly a roof in the entiro city remains intuct. But many people are finding it extremely difficult to make repairs, as the stock of voofing material on hand is not suflls cient to meet the general derand and the prices have been sharply advanced. The American brigs Ned White and Jens nie Phinny were among the shipping los Both are total wrecks, but their crews ese caped unhurt. Not a single craft that was 1 the harbor when the storm struck the island remained aflont. The village -of Morno Rouge is a total wrreck. The number of lives lost there was about thirty. Fort De France, tho second city of the island, was also nearly destroyed. It will be months before the ravages of the storm can be obliterated. Meanwhile rywhere to | there is great suffering and especially among the poorer classos, -— - An Alabamn Bank Assigns.
