10 ELKHORY BECOMES DIVISION || Ohjeago & Northwestern Takes Complete Ountrol of Transmissouri Lines. BIDWELL REMAINS IN GENERAL CHARGE 7. A. Kuhn Becomes Assistant General Freight and Passenger Agent and Major Buchanan is Apparently Retired. “The Nebraska and Wyoming division of | the Chicago & Northwestern railway” will be the new name of the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley rallroad. George F. Bid- well will remain in general charge of the division, C. C. Hughes will remain in charge of the operating department and John A. Kuhn will be assistant general treight and passenger ngent of the Chicago & Northwestern railway, with headquarters at Omaha, and in charge of the traffic de- partment of the Nebraska and Wyoming diviston. W. H. Jones will be division treight agent in charge of the freight side and J. W, Munn will be division passenger agent in charge of the passenger depart- ment. All this is to take effect on March 1, and the information was brought to Omaha yesterday from Chicago by General Manager Bidwell and General Freight Agent Kubn, who went there on Monday for tkis purpose. Mr. Bidwell on his return made the follow- ing statement: “The Northwestern lines west of the Missourt river will on and after March 1 be operated as the Nebraska and Wyoming division of the Chicago & Northwestern rallway. The offices will remain in Omaha and the business of the lines will be con- ducted In all essential particulars the same a8 heretofore. I think I am safe in saylng that 1 shall remain in charge as manager, Mr. Kuhn in charge of trafic and Mr. Hughes In charge of operating. Some des talis had not been fully arranged at the time of my last advices and I am not in position, therefore, to say more at this time."” No Mentlon of Buchanan. Thus the changes In the trafic depart- ment are all arranged and the new titles set. Mr. Jones has been chief clerk in the treight department, Mr, Munn chief clerk in the passenger department. The circular announcing the new appointments is issued by H. R. McCullough, third vice president of the Chicago & Northwestern raflway and in charge of trafic matters. No provision is made for General Passenger Agent Bu- chanan in this circular, both freight and | passenger jurisdiction being combined under Mr. Kuhn, who has been general freight agent. In the operating department exact titles are not yet published. This department is | in direct charge of President Marvin Hughitt, who has been {1l for ten days, and has not yet issued his circular on this mat- ter. Mr. Bidwell's statement conveys the goneral information, save as to the titles he and Mr. Hughes will have. Mr. Bidwell will probably be made an assistant to Gen- eral Manager Gardner and Mr. Hughes di- vision superintendent in charge of the Ne- braska and Wyoming division. Thus the three divisions of the Elkhorn lNoe, the South Platte, the Eastern and the Black Hills divisions, are to be combinea into one division of the Northwestern. All lettering, advertising, stationery and trans. portation will be ‘changed immediately. The division will be an integral part of the Northwestern line and will have no distin- guishing mark from it. No change in the office forces will result. Staffs will remain as now and the same headquarters be occupled as now. They are far more commodious and dignified than the usual division headquarters in most places on almost any road. Rallway Notes and Personals. B, L Lomax, general passenger agent of the Union Pacific rallway, has gone to Chicago. Gerritt Fort, assistant general passengor agent of the' Unfon Pacific raflway, has gone to Chicago. Gus Swanson, a gateman at Unfon sta- tlon, 18 on duty again after a two months' ‘wrestle with appendicltis, J. C. Stubbs, traffic director of the Har- riman lines, and third vice president of the Bouthern _Pacific rallway, passed through Omaha Wednesday night enroute to San Francisco. He was in his private car, ac- companied by his wife. On March 10 Robert J. Collier, of Collier's ‘Weekly, will bring through Omaha a part in & special car from the east, via St. Paul. They will remain here till night, south then via the Burlington to Kansas City and St. Louls, thence back to Penn- | sylvania. Objection has been made by some lines to the proposition of the Chicago & North- Western rallway to put colonist rates in effect to Bouth Dakota and the Black Hills to go on sale from March 17 to 21. The remonstrance made is that the section is not an agricultural country, and there im no regson for offering one-way colonist rates to it. NEW HEADGEAR AT CITY HALL mest md Proudest Variation on he German Yachting Ca; Appears, . A new automoblle cap has arrived at the ty hall and has been declured the “thing' by the fashion dictators there. It is the biggest and proudest variation on the Ger- ‘man yachting cap, made famous and popu- lar by Mayor Moores and others. A man wearing one needs no umbrella when It rains nor Panama in blistering sun, for the eaves of the cap project out like the halos in plotures of the eaints. The roof of the crown pokes its nose in the air toward the ‘front at an angle of 45 degrees and with an immense flare, Comptroller Westberg made the find the otber day in a shop win- dow. Thirty seconds later he had one of tHe sky-pleces, though it cost him $2.50 in cash. Within two hours after he had worn 1t in the city hall and been duly congratu- lated Councilman Trostier appeared under the same kind of & 1td. When he walked in on a meeting of the Advisory board a general sigh of admiration went up and “Billy" Coburn, City Engineer Rosewater, Health Commissioner Ralph and many oth- erp triéd it on. Yesterday there was a plethora of automoblle caps in the city ball Their wearers declared enthusiastically that they would fit any kind of & face and sserted that at a special session in the mayor's office it had been declared that a ety official didn't need to own an auto In order to wear the haberdashery. At the meeting of the soclety of the St Mary's Avenue Congregatiotal chureh Wednesday night, upon the recommenda- tion 0f the board of trustees, the salary of Rev.

Donnelly 1| McEwen aton Colton lyn Ray "Adeiaide ) Agnes R Paula Coghian, as Paula Tanqueray in her best aspect is not a very attractive person, particularly to people who have old fashioned notlons on certain points of personal behavior and re- sponsibility, and the peculiar attributes of her character that might appeal to those who affect the “modern” ideas of social existence are hardly those that Rose Cogh- lan in her mature years is capable of giv- ing their best expression. So, In a word, | the one-night engagement of Miss Coghlan in the Arthur Wing Pinero exposition of an admitted fact may be classed as both an artistic and a soclal failure. Some two or three hundred people braved the storm to attend the performance, but these were neither responsive to the efforts of the actress or greatly moved by her anguish of soul. Some, in fact, were sufficiently dense of understanding as to actually anicker at lines that might have sounded funny to a thoughtless person, but which were intended to represent a longing born of desperation or the despairing admission of an inexorable fact. This lack of sym- pathy and understanding on the part of the audience had its reflex effect on the com- pany, with a very obvious result. Miss Coghlan shows plainly the filght of years. Even at the best she was never by nature or training fitted for the part of the woman who tried to break down that barrier erected long ago agalist the sister who has sinned. Mr. Pinero merely gave more extended expression to a social axio in writing “The Second Mrs. Tanqueray,” and while some actresses have undertaken to make the part a plea for the forgive- ness of the woman, Miss Coghlan merely succeeds in making plain the utter hope- | lessness of her situation. From any stand- point the piece is not especlally inspiring, and with such interpretation as it had last night it becomes positively depressing. In some respect Miss Coghlan's support |18 as unfortunate in conception of the in- tention of the play as she is in her is- | terpretation of the leading role. For ex- | ample, Mr. Ritehie, who has the part of | Aubrey Tanqueray, admits his defeat be- fore the first shot is fired in the battle According to his idea of the role, Tanque- ray knew he was making a blunder, but refused to withdraw even while he had an | opportunity, and persisted m going ahead to what he was convinced could only bring misery t» him. The real Tanqueray had some sort of Quixotic notion that h~ would win In time but the Ritchie Tanqueray fails to disclose this at any time. David Elmer as Caley Drummle, the hard-headed, cynical man of the world, who really loved Dis friend, seemed to be the only one with a real good notion of what was expected of him. The engagement was for one night only. FOOD PROTECTION The Circuit Court of the United States Decldes the In-er-senl Packnage. in Favor of A decision far-reaching in its effect and of interest to all lovers of pure food, has Just been handed down by Judge Adams in the circult court of the United States The suit in question was brought against the Union Biscuit company for infringement on the in-er-seal package, controlled ex- clusively by the National Biscult company, for the protection of biscult and crackers against dust, moisture, odor and germs. In deciding against the Union Biscuit company Judge Adams says: “The proot abundantly shows that prior | to the invention of the patent the old paper mands of the service required of them; that their contents deterforated rapidly in sub- stance and flavor; that they were subjected o the haneful effects of the alr, molsture and dust. Since the fntroduction of the box of the patent a radical change has taken place. This box has been found equal to the climatic and other local conditions in all parts of the country, from New Orleans to New York, trom Florida to Minnesota and from California to Massachusetts. The uni- form testimony from all these regions is to the effect that the contents of the box are preserved in their original freshness and flavor. “The whole testimony in my opinion clearly shows that the box of the patent materlally facilitates the distribution of in- expensive food products to the consumer and at the same time lessens the cost and enhances the intrinsic value of such prod- uots." Judge Adams’ full decision against the in- fringement not only shows the great im- portance of the in-er-seal package, but is 80 broad and conclysive as to prevent any tional Biscuit company.

The Board of Directors of the Auditorium company opened bids Wednesday night for the construction of the stone and brick work for the superstructure of the building, and within a few days will let the contract for the work. It is said the contract would have been awardedl Wednesday night but for a question ralsed as to the time in which the work can be com- pleted. The board desires to have the building completed as soon as possible, and the lowest responsible bidder would not make as short time in the contract as some of the others, so the matter will be taken up with him to see if he cannot reduce the time. The exact figures were not given out, but it Is understood that the bids were com- paratively close, and that the bid which was considered the most desirable was ap- proximately $65 h The contract cannot be entered into until | the return of F.

General Corbin, adjutant general | of the army, has accepted the invitation of the managers of the expositfon to act as grand marshal of the civic and military parade and it is expected that he will per- sonally designate the troops which will be in the line of march. The United States has no money available for the payment of the transportation of the troops and the extent of the demonstration will depend to a large extent upon the funds voted by the exposition management for the purpos From the Department of the Missouri 3,200 men, with five bands and full comple- ment of officers, can be sent it desired, in- cluding every branch of the service with the exception of the coast artillery. This number is made up of artillery, cavalry, engineers and infantry to the number of 1,400 from Fert Leavenworth; artillery, cavalry and infantry from Fort Riley to the number of 1,000; cavalry and artillery from Jefferson barracks to the number of 440 and infantry from Fort Crook to the number of 360.

The Western Association of General Pas- senger Agents will hold its session at Hot Springs, Ark., March 5, and a large num- ber of the jobbers of Omaha and towns on the Missourl and Mississippl rivers are making arrangements to be present to pro- test against the change in the excess bag- gage rates. These rates were to have gone Into effect March 1, but their effective- ness was postponed one month in order to permit the jobbers to show cause why they should not be enforced. It is expected that at the meeting there will be at least 150 jobbers from Omaha, St. Joseph, Kansas | City, St. Paul, Minneapolis and other west- ern cities, each londed with arguments as to why the rate should not be changed. Said an Omaha jobber: “If this new rate | 1s enforced it will cause the establishment | of a hack line paralleling every railroad line | in the west. The new rate is excessive only | as 1t applies to short distances, and the towns are so close together in Iowa, Ne- braska and the neighboring states tha* by |a little judicious division of time a man | can make two or more of them in a day. | He can drive the six or seven miles inter- | vening and carry his sample cases cheaper than he can carry them by train if the new rates are enforced, and this will certainly be done by those houses which carry large lines of samples.” What Follows Grip?
