PASSING OF NEWS BUTCHER| aad Pestifersns Railway Character Goes Dewn in Histery. WAY IS FOUND TO DO WITHOUT HIM aique Management of the Darlington Ronte Make Other Ar mente News Supply and Train Boye' Ship Salls Wednesday, for Beginning next Wednesday, August 1, the | harsh, nasal twang of the newsagent will| be heard no more on Burlington trains A general order from the passenger de- partment, which goes into effect on that day, will exclude henceforth all venders of news, fruit, candy, cigars, cheap literature and divers novelties, the clan which has for #0 many years been the one dark blot in a pleasant day of travel. This idea fs not new with this line, though the adoption haw Just been accomplished Three years ago the matter was first agl- tated by heads of the passenger department, where the plan originated. At that time it was definftely determined to put the scheme into operation as soon as possible. On Investigation, however, the rallroad company found itselt enmeshed in a net- work of contracts connected with the busi- ness of the traveling nows agencles and an immedjate inauguration of the change w not feasible. But the Burlington kept | eye open and watched for a chance. When the binding contracts had almost expired it was free to proceed with the mew proposi- tion and that was just recently. » now the newsagent nuisance will be excluded from the entire system, but in doing this the road has been careful not to prive its patrows of an opportunity to securs the city newspapers at the earlieat possible moment. Ample provision for this has been arranged. At all the principal division terminals newsstands have been established and newsboys will enter the trains at these polnts and pass through them during/the stopover selling news- papers and a limited class of other read- ing matter. In Nebraska such stations will be maintained at Wymore, McCook, Has fogs and Ravenna, besides Omaha and Lin- coln Papers May He Had. Another scheme will provide for supply- ing the merning papers at the earlleat pos- sible hour. Arrangements have been made with Omaha papers that they may be sent out on the western division of the Burling- ton, that between here and Denver, hot from the presses, and they will get far enough out to meet the eastbound trains at Hast- ings at about 10 o'clock in the morning. The same thing will be done on the other branches. Out on the morthern and Wyoming divislons toward Billings papers will meot the eastbound trains at Crew- ford, away up in the sandhills, On the west division the Denver end is arrang- ing the same plan for papers from that clty. They will be sent just as far toward Omaha as possible between the time they leaye the press and meet tho trains for which they are designated. Again, the same ‘will be done to the south, toward Lincoln and Wymore and Atchison. At the places whero these papers are put on board the trains they will be in the hands of tho newsboys, who will be permitted to ride fifty miles or so while distributing them. They will then leave the train and take the next one back to | sources, | haustion thelr stations to handle the mext batch. The Kansas City and Chicago line will haye an extra arrangement of its own. A-mowsboy will.be allowed' to leave Kan- sas: Clty at 7:30 in the morning and return on the Chicagb train, arriviog In Kansas Clty again at 8:40 the same night. Thus passengers into Kapsas City will be fur- nished both morning and afternoon papers trom there. A similar scheme prevalls at the Chicago end. Along only a few sections of the road will newsboys be allowed to offer anything in the way of frult or tobacco. On all trains which carry cafe or buffet cars noth- ing but papers w!ll be sold, as passengers can secure the other articles in any quan- “tity In thoso cars. But where no such \#ervice 1s maintained fruit and cigars wiil be vended. It fs thought that this change will meet with high favor on the part of the travi ing public. To anyone who has expo- riencéd the dull pain of belug pestered *both by the insistence and the vocalizing of a newsboy the anticipation alone of such a rellef s a happiness. The move- ment is everywhere considered a progres- slve one and in accordance with public sen- timent. FORMER OMAHA MAN INJURED A. B. Roeder, cab proy . A, B. Rooder, whose fnjury In a wreck of ‘a wild Pullman sleeper on the Rlo Grande road near. Marshall Pass in Colorado is re- ported.in the press dispatches, is a brother of M. L. Roeder, who was formerly in the lusurduce business in this city. A. B. Roeder has maay acquaintances here. Oue of them says that the information con- corning Roeder's injuries is the first inti- mation hed here as to his whereabouts for severhl Jears. In 1690 Roeder married a daughter of Searles, the whilom sugar king, and has for a number of years been in South America looking after some of the Searjes Interests In that country. M. L. Roeder left Omaha about 1894 and has since been ‘living in New York. The press re- ports of the accident in Colorado Indicate that A. B.

When Judge Lee Estelle walked into the ourthouse yesterday morning he had a box of clgars under his arm and an expansive smile under his judiclal brow. ““Boy or girl?" asked the first mind reader the Judge met In the corridor. “Well," peplied the judge, with an alr of extreme satisfaction, “it's the kind we put| on the bench when they get old enough. The new boy urrived at the Estelle homa, 4183 Cass street, during the night. He | weighed in at twelve pounds and displayed sufilclent lung power to make him & promis- ing entry for the oratorical stakes. “That boy's first argument,” remarked the judge, “was thorough and convineing and this court crders anything he wants."

Dan Harvey, who was the editor and pub- lisher of & newspaper at Valley for one short week, has gone to parts unknown and several merchants of Fremont are holding | the sack. Last Saturday Harvey hired a team of horses and a light road wagon from | Mrs. James Reld of Valley and drove away | to Fremont. His appearance among the business men of that city with such a fine TIg gave the {mpression that he was & pros- | perous farmer and his trade was readily sollcited. It is alleged that from the gen- | eral store of Eddy Bros. Harvey purchased $7 worth of groceries and his check on the Valley bank for $25 was promptly cashed | by the firm. The Nebraska Harness com- | Pany gave him a trunk, a grip and $11.25 In | cash for another $25 check and a clothing merchant parted with two suits of clothes and $5 in cash for a $55 check. | Tuesday Mrs. Reld received a letter trom | Harvey telling her to send to a certain| lMvery stable in Council Bluffs for her | team and vehicle and that is the last heard | from the former editor of the Valley Star. | Mrs. Reld found her rig at the Counctl| Bluffs stable, where it had been left by Harvey last Sunday. OVERESTIMATES HIS SKILL | Former Expert Swimmer Undertakes | to Give Exhibition and s Drowned in River, Albert Zahrupcky tried to show his triends how he used to swim when he was & soldier In the old country and sank like a rock to the bottom of the Missourl. Zah- rupcky and five friends went to the river at a point not far below the Unfon Pacific | bridge about 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon. He had been telling them of his former swimming feats and they were anxlous to see the exploits repeated. The swimmer undressed on the bank and was taken in a small boat by two friends to the mliddle of | the channel, while the others remained ashore. Zabrupcky waved to his friends on the | bank, jested with those In the boat and/ then dived overboard In twenty-five feet of water. He came up once, twice, but did not utter a sound and was seen no gore. It 1s supposed that he was selzed with cramps. The body has not been recovered. The man was a laborer in the employ of the city and lived alone at Second and Poppleton avenue. His only known rela- tive Is a son In the Philippine military service. IOWA SENATOR TALKS POLITICS | Thomas Healy D! es the Guberna- torial Chances of A. B. Cammin, “It looks very much as though A. B. Cummins will have a walkaway in the Towa | gubernatorial contest. None of the other | candidates seem to be within halling dis- | tance of the Des Moines man,” said Thomas | H. Healy of Fort Dodge, Ia., who is In| Omaha on legal business. Mr. Healy is a | member of the lowa state senate and is thoroughly in touch with lowa politics. “John Herriott seems to be the leading candidate for the lleutenant governorship and will probably be the second man on the republican ticket,” Senator Healy con- tinued. “Judge S. M. Weaver of Towa Falls is the favorite among the candidates for the place on the lowa supreme bench which Judge Given has held for twelve years. ‘There have been many attempts to split Mr. Cummins’ support, but at no time has | there been any indication of weakening among his supporters. The Conger boom was started about twelve months too late. People had almost forgotten about the siege of Pekin and fafled to get enthusiastic over the Chinese minister.” NO OIiL ON HIS TONGUE A. McShane Return Texas Flelds, Declin to Talk, John from John A. McShane returned Tuesday from a visit of three weeks In the ofl reglon at Beaumont, Tex. He says it has been so intensely hot down there that absolutely nothing has been done for some time in the llne of development work and that every one has left the vicinity In search of cooler weather. Mr. McShane absolutely declined to dlscuss tho status of Omaha interests in the vicinity of Beaumont and Port Arthur, where Le is understood to be largely inter- ested, further than to say with emphasis that there has been a great deal more sald already than the facts justify and that there is positively nothing new there worth discussing. He expects to return to Texas n about two weeks. KELKENNEYS ARE IMPROVING Injured Mother and Son Are Thought to Have & Chance for Re- covery. James B. Kelkenney and his mother, Mrs, Mary Kelkenney, are considerably improved. The physiclans at the Presbyterian hospital report that the chances for the res covery of both mother and son are good. Mr. Kelkenney has recovered consclous- ness and appears bright and cheerful. Mr, Kelkenney {s suffering much pain, but her Injurles are not now regarded as ne rily fatal.

During the term of City Attorney Lam- bert all cases to enjoin the city Nom the collection of taxes assessed agaiust prop- erty for speclal assessment work, where the decision was adverse to the city, have been appealed to the supreme court of the state, 8o that the action of the council In voting bonds will not cover these dis tricts, However, there are a lot, of the districts where the city treasurer has canceled the taxes off of the records of the city by or- der of the district court decrees and the finding of the district court not appealed from. It s these cases that the council desires to reach. How this will affect the question of a re- ssessment of the city {s not known. Mr. Lambert seems firm in his position that a reassessment of all the vold special assess- ments can be made and the property which has been benefited by the grading, paving and curbing can be charged with the amount of money the city has been forced | to expend In order to get the ments. Of course, this will rest entirely with the council, which will or will not ap- prove this policy of rcassessment. There are many who seem to feel that, notwith- standing special property has been bene- fited by the Improvements made, still it has been a benefit to the town In general and that ite expense should be covered by taxation. Nothing will be done with the matter of the new bond Issue until the return ot Mayor Kelly and Clty Attorney Lambert, but by that time all of the facts In con- nectfon with the districts which have been declared vold will have been obtalned and no delay will be occasioned on this score. Don’t Want City Money. As yet no blds have been recelved by City Clerk Shrigley in response to his pub- lished notice for bids for the depository of the city funds. None of the South Omaha banks have seen fit to apply for the money. Mr. Shrigley said yesterday that a mistake had been made in the published notice for blds and t it will close on July 29 instead of July 28. It seems to be the general impression that no bids will be recelved. What the city will do In this case Is not known. The charter says that the money shall be deposited in the bank offering the most for the privilege of keeping the money. Ballding Goes Right On. The fears which are entertalned as to the prospects for fall trade over the state and in this city do not seem to have affected South Omaha bullding and the work Is going on merrily. Hardly any year in the history of the town will show as good a record for the erection of fine residence property as will 1901. While but few per- mits have been lssued during the past two weeks, yet work is being begun each day on permits previously granted and the bulk of them will tend to beautify the town (n general. Not much has been done on the ITots which have been sold In the new addi- tions to the town, although many of the buyers contemplate erecting fine residences upon them. The sale of addition lots has been very eatisfactory to the local real estate men. Night Afr Rideous. Parties living in the vicinity of Twenty- sixth and N streets complained to the po- lice yesterday that their rest had been dls- turbed early yesterday morning by a drunken brawl in a saloon located on the alley between Twenty-fifth and Twenty- sixth streets on N. It Is claimed that a man became crazed by elther the heat or improve. Mquor and that a lot of drunken hangers-on | chased him up and down the street, cuffing | and kicking him and knocking him down, while he gave evidence of fright and pain by dlscordant yells and howls. Some of the residents of this portion of the street at Iast were compelled to appear upon the street and stop the disgraceful affray before any rest could be secured. Fears of Fire Fighters, Owing to the lack of raln the bulldings of the city are perfectly dry and the fire department people say they are afratd of fires. There are several large frame blocks in the center of the city and In the event fire should start in any of these it would be almost a matter of Impossibil- ity to cope with the flames. small fires recently have taught the de- partment how serlous are present condl-| The city is taking| 160 cents worth description and patrolmen are stopping all | tions in this regard. every, precaution to prevent fires of any burning of rubbish. Twenty-Fourth Street Grading. The grading which Is being done at the lower end of Twenty-fourth street is pro- gressing slowly. The ground Is in no con- dition to be worked, the dust being from six inches to a foot in depth. The graders sald last week that unless rain soon fell they would be forced to abandon thelr work. No rain has come to their rellef, but they continue to work at the grade, while & heavy bank of dust bangs over them at all times during the day. Several of the graders have quit their job, saylng that it was dangerous. New Fire Hall Unequipped. Notwithstanding that the councll two weeks ago ordered the fire and water com- mittee to go ahead and order what equip- ments were necessary to put the new Sec- ond ward fire hall in use, none of the ap- paratus has vet arrived and the fire station is almost unfit for use. Considering the grave fears ‘of the department over the conditions of property, extra effort will be made to secure this stuff at once. Obey Governor's Request. The ministers of South Omaha will meet at the First Presbyterlan church tomor- row evening in order to comply with the request of Governor Savage to give prayer for ralo. Rev.

STORAGE OF THE SOIL WATER Experience of the Last Month Em- es the Necel ering the Mo The experience of the average farmer the last month in the major part of the semi- arid belt is only another gentle reminder that eoll molsture is an important factor in the growing of cro I hope that there are many mote who will try a small piece of land to satiefy thomselves of the cor- rectness of the fact that the farmer him- self by his own Intelligent and observing efforts can control very largely the quan- tity of avallable molsture. Now is the time to begin the work of etoring for the next season’s crops. Just as soon as the wheat crop is removed the surface should be thor- oughly disked. While it may seem that this season is very dry and it is almost use- less to put L tho time, yet it is an im- portant part ot the work. There is no way of telling what the coming season may be. Too much trusting to a Kind providence without any effort on your part may land you on the side of the shorts. The break- ing of the crust and mixing of the stubble with the surface soil not only prevents the turther evaporation or loss of moisture in the soil, but puts the surface in the best possible condition to take the rain waters quickly Into the ground. If you wish to make a succees of farm- ing In the semi-arid belt you must watch every possible opportunity to store and con- serve the rainfall In the soll. In the New England states, New York, Pennsylvania and many other eastern siates they lose no opportunity to save the manures. Everything possible about the farm s gath- ered up and In every @nceivable way util- 1zed to convert it into manures to be mixed into the soll. It requires no argument to convince the average eastern farmer that thie is important and vital to successtul crop growlng. The farmers in the semi- arld belt should give just as close and per- sistent attention to the storing and con- serving of the rain waters in the soil. The | prairies of this great belt are full of bumus and they are even more fertile in their natural state than the eastern soils are after the liberal application of barnyard manures, The only thing needful is ample avallable molsture which can be stored by proper cultivation. The present long and excessively hot, windy perfod is of itselt one of the broad- est and most complete fllustrations of the effect of rain waters stored in the soll. The last half of March ard the first half of April was almost one continuous rain. The rain came just fast enough so the soll took it all in. In the major part of central and twest- | ern Nebraska and Kansas the soll was oaked down nearly or quite two feet. This depth of soll was not simply mo!st but wet. From July 1 to July 4 many were saying: “Our corn can't stand this kind of weather more than one or two days longer.” But to- day, with even hotter weather, the majority of the cornficlds are s:411 looking w ‘Why is 1t? For no other reason than that there was a large amount of molsture stored In the soll under the corn from which the roots bave been able, not only to draw sufficient moisture to keep the corn in con- dition, but to keep it growing in most cases. Think of these facts and conditions. Some ot the clearest and most convineing lessons are those provided by nature and only re- | quire thought and observation to convince the most skeptical mind. On the Pomeroy model farm may be seen very convincing evidence of the effect of | proper cultivation in the storing and con- serving of ralnwater. A sixty-acre fleld Is now being plowed that was double-disked | early In March—that is, the disk harrow | was lapped half its width. As soon as the | long rain of the firat half ot April was over the fleld was gone over with the Acme pul- verizing harrow—the most valuable tool for the work because it thoroughly pulverlzes and loosens the soll two Inches deep. At two different times later the Acme was used and the weeds kept clean from the | fleld. In return for this work, which has | cost all told up to the plowing 60 cents per | acre, we have our soil wet down over three { feet so molst that the soll may be very readlly pressed into mud balls with the hands. A fleld that was left bare and no cultivation given it, but weeds allowed 9 grow, shows no perceptible molsture down the same depth, while the entire portion | 18 dry and hard. To plow this fleld would | be almost impossible, while the part the moisture has been conserved in Is in per- fect condition to plow. There are two remarkable lessons that may be learned from this fleld: First—That large quantities of molsture may be stored in the soll by proper cultiva- | tien to grow crops with. Second-~That summer fallowing practiced after the plans that we are pursuing, with results as above described, Is quite different from that so common over the west—of dolng absolutely nothing until the plowing fe done in July. It 1t pays to plow in July for a crop of spring wheat or corn the following year, candidly, wiil it not pay to put in the extra of work and have the extra surplus of molsture and the vast dif- ference in the pnysical condition of the soll? Don't let another season go by with- out careful work to conserve the molsture on at least a small plece of ground. Seelng is belleving. H. W. CAMPBELL. Hill Cit Ki Montgomery Tablet Inscription.
