10 \ tRUlOR ABOUT FAST. TRALN {Bome -Bailroaders» Say Northwostern Line N WilliDiscontinue - It. {LOCAL-AGENTS+ DECLARE . IT 'WILL: STICK l General Passenger Agent Franols Says thefBurlington Wikl Soon M AlTime Made by Co! peting Lines. A reportdwas prevalent on railroad row yestorday thet on mext Sunday the Chi- ©cago & Northwewern rallway would take eloven-hour fast train service to Chi- cago. The story went the rounds rapidly ‘and before noon everyone was discussing the probability of such action and the ‘meaning of it. When the people who gwere agitating the «question finally happened to think that the Northwestern road had some representa- (tives in Omaha and, carried the tale to the local officials of that line they met with an emphatic denlal wf the story, but that fa1a not check the dispussion much. It was 'sald that the report camse stralght from Northwestern headquakters in Chicago and {that the headquarters of the other four /trunk line railroads between Omaha and IChicago knew the service was to be aban- doned. Assurance of this,Jn fact, was said to be the reason why nene of the other ‘lines bad made any movesto retaliate on ‘ ‘this eleven-hour journey. It is sald that two things have influ- enced the Northwestern to discontinue the speedy service. The firkt was the e tablishment of the two now additional trains between Chicago and Denver. These trains give a twelve-hour fun from Chi- cago to Omaha and one ofi eleven hours and forty-five minutes from Omaha to Chicago. Then the extra trains relleve the comgestion of trafic thmt was felt, so that another train is not really needed. Northwenstern Agents Taik. To this the Northwestern officials: reply that a new train leaving Omaha at 7:10 a. m. could'not possibly take ‘the: place of one leaving at 8 o'clock at night. Agaln, they say that the eleven-hour service is a great advertisement for the road, even it the train {s not absolutely'' necessary for trafic pugposee. The second point made against the fast service is that it does pot pay. It is sald that people are as a rule afraid to ride on this whirlwind train, and as they can get out of here either on No. 6 at 4:66 p. m., or on No. 2 at 7:45 p. m., they have fine choice of trains that are a little slower, but still offer good aervice for afternoon and evening travel. This again the Northwestern people say 18 not true. The receipts have been very satisfactory, they say, for'a demand has arisen for this ride that is more than ne éxpected. You can take dinmer in Omaba, get on the train,.and have break- fast in Chicago. On No. 6 you must eat dinner on the train, and on No. 2 you must take breakfast on it, as it does not arrive fn the Windy City till after 9 o'clock. These features people llke. Local officials are eonfident the service will be’continued on percentage, if for no other reason, and they do not belleve other roads will make @ move to meet it. New York Central Fast Train. The speed contest started by the Chicago- Omaha roads scems to be stimulating the rivalry of the eastern roads, which are determined to hold their own. Word comes mow that the New York Central and Lake Shore raflroads are to place in service Juse 16 a now 20-hour train to run be- tween New York and Chicago every day in the year. It will be called the Twen- tieth Century train and it will make tho 980 miles between Now York and Chicago ¥n exactly twenty hours including all stops. It will leave Grand Central st tion, New York, at 2:45 p. m. each day, arriving Grand Central station, Chicago, by the Lake Shore, at 9:45 mext morning; feave Grand Central station, Chicago, &t 13:30 p. m., arriving Grand Central sta- tion, New York, at 9:30 next morning, thus saving a day between the two cities. General Passenger Agent Daniels of the Central rightfully bosasts that this is a real twentleth century move in line with the genius of American institutions and be fastest long distance train in the world. Script Mileage Bur: “Arrangements are rapidly belng made for the establishment of the interchangeable mileage bureau in Omaha os July 1,” sald General Passenger Agent John Francis of the Burlington. *We shall announce the appointment of the bureau agent by June 16, though he has not been selected yet, and that will give us two weeks to get things in working order. Our printiug will be done in ample time, as we have already chosen the style of script books to be used and bave samples of the completed books on band. They will look like any other mile- age book, but will contaln $60 worth of script money, to be detached like mileage for each ticket bought, and will also have In them {dentification checks, which the owner makes out each time he takes a trip and buys a ticket from some ticket sgent with his script.” Mr. Francls has just returned from the east, where he went on a mission for Pas senger Trafic Manager Eustis of the Burlington system. “Regarding this new fast time between Chicago and Denver, which the Unlon Fa- eific and Northwestern will put on Sunday, voutinued Mr. Francls, “we are of course Sguring on the matter, and I think now that the Burlington will meet anything that any other road can do in that line. Twenty- ive hours and a balf is a good clip, but we make i If anyone can. We will not our fast trains, however, till all our sre ready and out containing the Bew schedules. You can be sure of that.” s ———— Oan't Miss v, ‘, Wabash new city office, 1601 Farnam st. Fhampooing and halrdresmng, 30c, at ) Sathery, 316-330 Bee Bullding.

The Majeskis and Handschuh are neighbors, Jiving near Fort Omaha. Handschuh had a contract to cut up some stumps along a ditech which runs through the fort. After digging up the stumps he threw them in the ditch, which | drains Majeski's property. Handschuh told | Justice Altstadt that Majeski and his wife, armed with a hoe, came out to where he was working and made him desist and threatened to kill him If he resumed work. | Mike Hagerty and wife and Joseph P. | Mills ana wite, all of whom live near | Twenty-nimth and Castellar streets, are having a meighborhood quarrel, and as a | consequence Mr. and Mrs. Hagerty have | been placed under a $300 bond to keep the | peace until June 11, when they will be given a hearing. The Mills told Justice Altstadt that the head of the Hagerty fam- ily had at various times threatened to do them great bodily injury. | Poo Gremt a Hisk. In almost every neighborhood someone has died from an attack of collc or cholera morbus, often before medicine could be procured or a physiclan summoned. A re- liable remedy for these diseases should be | kept at hand. The risk is too great for anyone to take. Chamberlain's Colle, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has un- doubtedly saved the lives of more people |and relieved more pain and suffering than any other medicine in use. It can always be depended upon.

It s the most in- teresting publication that comes in our exchanges and the reason s easily told. Mr. George H. Daalels, the gemeral pas- senger agent, who has charge of it, has the “Carnegle faculty"’ of getting good men around him, who know thelr business and the result {s that in everything the publi- cation department of the New York Central distributes, it is “all right.”—Brookiyn (N.

In speaking of the ex- quisite and altogether inimitable bareback riding of Edna Cooke, there is no language too strong to proclaim her merits. Nor 18 it claiming too much to aver that she is beyond all question the most daring, the most aocomplished, and in every way the most firished equestrienne the world has produced. Her riding is & revelation and a poem. Beautiful as an houri and #s graceful as a fawn, Edna accomplishes on her fiying courser numberless feats none else ever dared attempt. and backward and forward somersaults are to her the merest bagatolle. There are many equestriennes in the profession, but there is but one Edna and she fs with the Pan-American Shows, which will exhibit at Omaha Mon- day, June 9, at 20th and Paul streets.

Open R . SHRINERS FROM ALL POINTS They Are Passing Through Omaha on Way to 8an Francisoo. MINNEAPOLIS TEMPLE SPENDS DAY HERE Cedar Waplds Shriners Come in the Afternpon and Join the Northe erners for the Long Trip Wentw: The first Mg gathering of Shriners from foreign parts to make any extended stop- over in Omaha arrived yesterday morning over the Illinols Central. It comprised the members of Zuhrah temple of Minneapolis, some fifty in all, and they occupled two special Pullman sleeping cars from the northern city into Omaha, arriving here at 8:06. At 1:25 in the afternoon another band ar- rived from Cedar Rapids, Ia., and they call themselves Elkahir temple. In this band there were seventy-five more Shriners and they came into Omaha in two special Pullman sleeping cars over the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific rallroad. Meanwhile there were three more Pull- can cars standing in the yards near Union station and at 4:30 all seven were hooked to a big engine, together with a dining car and a baggage car, and when the Shriners from Minnesota and Iowa were rounded up and‘put on board again the train pulled out for San Francisco. This is the Omaha Rock Island special for Shriners. It will,land the travelers in Denver at 7 o'clock Wedensday morning and turn them over at once to the Denver & Rio Grande railroad, which will carry them on as far as it goes and then deliver them to connections that will eventually put the Shriners at the threshold of the lodge hall in 'Frisco. The three extra Pullmans are to be oc- cupfed by Omaha and Lincoln people, two for Omaha, one for Lincoln, The train 1s the first special to go out west through Omaha, and {s the first one to be started from here. From now on the Shriners from the east are to come thick and fast. Wednesday at 3 o'clock In the afternoon comes Medinah temple of Chicago in a special traln, also going via the Overland route, and on the same afternoon at 4:25 the Burlington will run two special Pull- man carloads of Omaha and Lincoln Shriners out behind No. 3, forty people or more In all. The Burlington also reports an enor- mous Shrine business over its south lines. At Oxford, Neb., Monday, the polnt where the St. Louls and Kansas City south line jolns the main line from Omaha to Denver, there passed through within one hour six big trainloads of people. There were three sections of No. 3, westbound, all twelve cars or more. One was from Omaha, one from Kansas City, one from St. Louts and all were loaded to the guards. Then there were two sectlons of No. 6 returning east, and one section of No. 14 eastbound. The big trainload from St. Louls comprised Shriners from New York City, 220 in all, the largest party of Shriners to be carried in one train. While the Shriners from Minneapolls and Cedar Rapids were here they were kept mighty busy by the Tangler temple men, who had lald out to entertain them. They were rushed frantically about the city, seelng everything of Interest that could be crammed into the few brief hours, and when they finally got back to their trains they were all In a whirl, for they had been golng every minute. Chief among the entertain= ers was “Bill" Hathaway of Minneapoli city ticket agent for the Rock Island there, who brought Zurah temple down In h charge. As soon as that 4:30 special left the local Shriners took big breaths and lolled around a little while, freshening up for the mext relay, Syrians, at 11:30 p. m. Tangler men realize that they will be kept on tae jump till Friday, and they are now deeply In- terested in the theory of the conservation of energy as applied to reception com- mittees. A Summer Trip Unsurpassed on the Continent. The trip to Salt Lake City or to the Pa- cific coast via that point over the Denver & Rio Grande and the Rio Grande Western is the most beautiful in America. No European trip of equal length can compare with it in grandeur of scenery or wealth of novel interest. Then Salt Lake City it self 1s a most qualnt and picturesque place and well worth the journey. Its Mormon temple, tabernacle, tithing office and church institutions; its hot sulphur springs with- in the city limits; its delightful tempera- ture, sunny climate and its Great Salt Lake —deader and denser than the Dead sea in Palestine—are but a few features of Sait Lake City's countless attractions. There are parks, drives, canyons and beautiful outlying mountain and lake resorts. Imag- ine, if you can, a bath in ealt water a mile above sea level and in water in which the human body cannot sink. Inquire of your nearest ticket agent for low tourist rates to Salt Lake City, or write for information and copy of “Salt Lake City, the City ot the Saints,” to 8. K.

Tanner, proprietor of a South Omaha democratic publication, has pricked the sensitive cuticle of Ignatius Jehovah Dunn, “deputy county attorney in and for Douglas county, Nebraska,” and Ignatius proposes to have the law on him for crim- inal 1ibel, filing & complaint in county court yesterday, despite the muttered protest of some democratic lenders, who considered that there was already grief a-plenty and disaffection more than plenty within the party ranks, 1t appears in the complaint that John M. has been saying in his paper some real un- kind things about the motives that prompted Ignatius to so persistently pursue Tom Den- nison, while as persistently overlooking others who Tanner coneldered equally guilty of similar offenses, and Ignatius de- clares to the court that Tanner is so many different kinds of a Mbeler that it requires two lines to accommodate his descriptive adjectives, “1 euppose Dunn has an iden,” says a South Omaba democrat, “that he will be vindicating himself in pursuing this course, but it seems to me that he is starting in to stir up a row that will puncture his little county attorney boomlet in so many places that he won't be able to count the holes. Just at present the thing that we particu- larly do not need is anmother row. Tom Nolan and those other South Omaha fellows that the Jacksonlan club tramped on, spit on and finally threw over the transom smile and smile, but are busy with their little hammers just the same, and the South Omaha democracy i8 so split up already that every member is wondering where he is at.” WEDGE PLEADS NOT GUILTY Hearing on Bullders’ Exchange Em- bezzlement Charge Set for June 24. Willlam S. Wedge appeared in county court yesterday to be rraigned on a charge of embezziement, and pleaded not guilty. His hearing was set for June . C. W. Partridge and J. B. Merriam went his bond for $500. This 18 & new beginning of an old action by the Builders' and Traders' exchange, which charges Wedge with having appro- priated to his own use upon different oc- caslons in 1899 a total of $410 be- longing to the exchange, of which he was secretary at that time. J. Fred Smith, as chalrman of the exchange's investigating committee, flles the com- plaint, the indictment returned against Wedge for the same alleged misconduct baving been knocked out by the decicion of Judge Baxter that the grand jury's work was invalid. Wedge's attorney says in his defense that the exchange is prompted by jealousy be- cause Wedge, after belng discharged, started a similar exchange that proved very successful. He says that it was not until after the old exchange felt the in- roads of the mew that it pretended to dls- cover discrepancies in the books kept by Wedge. WILL ARGUE THE AGE LIMIT Members of the McKinley Republican Club Expect Warm Meeting ‘Wednesday Night. The McKinley Republican club antfel- pates a good-natured but troplcal de- bate .at its meeting at the Millard hotel Wednesday evening. At the last meeting it was discovered that the members have widely varying views as to the age limit. It was originally the intention to fix this limit at 18 years as the minimum and 35 years as the maxi- mum, but some favor 21 as a minimum and no limit as maximum. Still others favor 20 years as the minimum and 45 as the maxi- mum. President Crawford anticipates a skirmish and has warned the members to come prepared with their best arguments. The club has already declared itself against allylng itself with any particular man or faction In the party and the advo- cates of a low maximum urge that to most easily keep itself thus free it must bar out the older and more experienced politicians who might dominate. On the other hand, it 1s urged by the advocates of the unlimited maximum that the counsel and support of Just such men are needed by the club, most of the members of which are comparatively inexperienced in campaign work. AFTER JOB AT CITY JAIL Many Applicants for Position of Po- lice Matron, Vacated by Mrs. Little, The resignation of Police Matron Mrs. M. E. Little because of her marriage to J. H. Whitman sing Chief of Police Donahue no end of worry and troubie. By 10 yesterday morning fourteen applica- tions had been received for the position and the reception room was gradually fill- ing with women, old and young, white and black, all of whom were willing to give their services for the good of the city. Among the applicants were two girls about 20 years of age. Chief Donahue in- formed one of these that she would have to sign an agreement not to get married In- side of two years. She agreed to take the matter under consideration and report later. Three colored women have applied and one advanced the argument that as more col- ored women were arrested than white peo- ple it was right and proper that the jail should have a colored matron. One woman from out in the state applied by telephone Tuesday morning. No selection has yet been made Police Have No Evidence, CHICAGO, June 3.—The case against “Dr." E.

MR, CONNOLLY, HOWEVER, TAKES A TRIP Commissioner May Want the Money Approprinted for Delegate Charity Convention Turned Over Him, At the county court house there are quite & number of people who are wondering what will happen when James P. Con- nolly of the board of commissioners and chairman of the charity committee re- turns from his eastern trip. Incl- dentally these same people are wonder- ing whether he or Thomas O0'Connor, keeper of the county store, will get a cer- tain $76 voted by the board to defray 0’'Connor’s expenses in attending-the pres- ent conference of charities and correction in Detrolt, or whether this money will be returned to the county's coffers. Two weeks ago the board authorized drawing a warrant for this amount fin O'Copnor's favor, specifylng the purpose for which it was to be used. Mr. O'Con- nor has already attended three of these conferences, but last week, the day before Connolly’s departure for his “visit in the east,” the storekeeper made the disquiet- ing announcement that his children had suffercd an attack of measles and that, therefore, he would be unable to go. Mr. Connolly announced that he would rear- range his program and attend the confer- ence himself for a few days. There was no meeting of the board and his act was voluntary. But previously Mr. O'Connor had received the warrant for $76 and he eald yesterday that he etill holds the money and that he had thought of asking the board it he might not retain it and take & vacation later in the summer. Not Vacation Money. As the resolution of the board appropri- ated the money for an express purpose, it is said that he cannot use it for vaca- tlon purposes without firet having the board rescind its former action and then expressly reappropriate the amount for vacatino purposes, which latter would be something of dn innovation. Meanwhile Mr. Connolly, who has not been an ardent admirer of O'Conmor and who hus repeatedly tried to have him dis- placed by Patrick Ford, will bhave re- turned. The chairman of the charity committee remarked several weeks ago that he didn't see why eome of the commissioners should not be sent at county expense to the char- ity conference instead of the storekeeper, and some of his friends say that it is probable that he is still of the same opinion and that he will take the ground that as he attended the conference he should be the one to recelve the money appropriated to O'Connor for this use. Some others who, perhaps, are not his friends intimate that he had his eye on the $75 when he started and that he will demand that it be transferred to him by 0’Connor. Chance for an Argument. Thus there becomes apparent a compli- cated condition that will make possible an- other of those lively melees that are recorded with such frequency in the his- tory of the board since Commissloner O'Keeffe and Commissioner Connolly took to disliking each other. If O'Connor asks for the money to defray vacation expenses Connolly, it is supposed, will balk. And it Connolly asks it because of having at- tended the conference, O'Keeffe, it seems equally probable, will balk. Members of the board said Tuesday tbat O'Connor could not transfer the money, as Connolly may desire, without the sanc- tion of the board, and they anticipate some more firewogks when the matter is brought before that body, as the South Omaha member 18 not apt to be at all Inclined to assist in defraying his fellow democrat's junketing expenses with county money, be- cause the latter voluntarily goes out of his way to spend a day or two at a meeting to which he was not sent and from which it is not apparent that he is to derlve much benefit for the county.

LEAVES EYE AS SECURITY Wyoming Cowboy Leaves Peculiar Pledge with Clerk at Mil- lard Hotel, Chief Clerk Davenport of the Millard hotel is exhibiting a beautiful pale blue glass eye to curlous people and Roy Hol- comb is returning to Wyoming minus the sald same glass eye, and thereby bangs a tale. Holcomb is a cowboy of the old school and gets into civilization once a year and spends his money. A week ago he came to the Millard and registered from Encampment, W near which place he works on a ranch. WIith the savings of six months to spend, he has been having a lively time since his arrival. Yesterday he woke up penniless. Then it was he told his story to Mr. Davenport and gave the latter his glass eye as security for his board bill, in spite of the protests of tue clerk, who has known Holcomb for several years. Holcomb left yesterday with a crowd of rallroad employes and promises to return in the fall and not only get his eye, but his watch and a ring, which he left with a couple of “uncles.” MONEY IN QUESTION of them. to save money. ment, 24 floor. ar.| They are all light in weight and any hats ever offered. d. . and none o Wednesday retall, white lawn t waists trim n Des Molnes at 7c, on sale at 50 Waists, $1.50— in the finest ry and lace i trimmed, all this seasc nat n, styles DEIS. o575 SON Still Greater Bargains Tomorrow from the $100,000 BANKRUPT STOCK of SEELEY-HOWE-LE VAN CO, Des Moines’ Finest Dry Goods Store.
