The place has been rented by the Great Westeth at & monthly rental of $20. Being centrally located it is regarded as an excellent place for a raflroad ticket office. On the corner of Fifteenth and Far nam, j!’nl below it, Is the Burlington's office, and the corner of Bixteenth and Far- nam, just above it, the Milwaukee, and diagonally across the street the Wabash, #0 that it is what might be called the ticket office section of the city, all the other local offices being only a block ar two dlstant. Since his coming to the city General Agent G. F. Thomas of the Great Western has bad his offices in the Omaha National bank butlding, but has been endeavoring ail the time to secure more suitable and satisfac- tory quarters. ‘Mr. Morrell has had his barber shop in this place for fifteen consecutive years, and 80 it has become a sort bf old landmark. He is preparing to move at once, and Architect Voss Is already at work on the futerior of the bullding, fitting it up for the purposes of the Great Western. New 1 nee Plan. Becatuse the employes of the Union Pa- eific became dissatisfied with having to take Insurance in one accident insurance company President Burt has announced that beginning November 1 the employes may have the cholce of two companies with which to insure. President Burt of the Unfon Pacific has issued this statement, covering the situa- don: On November 1 a new arrangement will take efiect in respect to accldent urance for empioyes of the Union Pacitlc HKairoad company, Since January 1, 1900, the raflroad com- pany has collected accident Insurance pre- miums on {ts pay rools, on orders given by employes, for the Aetna Life Insurance company only. A_considerable number of employes having expressed their desire that the same priviieges be given o the Contl- nental Casualty company of Chicagy, the ruiiroad company will, commencing with November, make coliections on orders given by employes to either the Aetna or Coatinental company.

Clear Away for Terminals, That the Great Western rallway proposes 6 clear the way for its terminals soon s shown by the fact that the officers have asked the’city for a blanket permit to authorige the removal of the vacant houses to an Improvised junk yard near Twentieth and Plerce streets, where the dwellings will be collected and sold.

For Beomomy's Sake. Following recent orders to retrench in every possible manner the Union Pacific has issued an order which does away with the colored porters on the chair cars be- tween Omaha and Denver. This is one of the results of the recent meeting with B. H. Harrimap at Chicago and means the discharge 8f a large number of the employes. MANY FORCIBLE ENTRY CASES Multiplicity of Complaints Just Now Sald to Be of No Serfons Consequence, “The multiplieity of foreible entry com- plaints being filed in the several justice courts need cause no apprehension,” said a well known rental agent, whose firm han- dles upwards of 250 houses and generally has all of them oecupled, “In handling our extensive business in the rental line, we find shat collections are exceptionally good and that the usual crop of deadbeats, which comes to the surface every fall, is, if anything, not so large as in former years. There are several reasons why the courts are flooded with complaints of this character at this time. Quite a number of familles are planning to move into stearn heated flats for the winter, and if the agent is not alive to his bounded duty to his landlord, he will get left for the last month's rent. We have found it necessary to file a few forcible entry complaints on this account, but the number is small." The several justice courts of the city are just now filled up with forcible entry com- plaints. Where a tenant is In default a notice of efectment in three days time may be filed and this has been done in numerous instances VANISHED AS PER ADVICE Colored Man with Ambitions to Sell Clgars Departs by Special Request. English Morton, colored, arrived in town a week or so ago, end I8 now ready to leave. Morton secured a position with the Robertson Cigar company. He was to @o 0dd jobs and shine shoes. The odd jobs he found too odd and the polishing end of the contract too commonplace, 80 he branched out as a cigar salesman and peddied several boxes of the finest cigars he could lay hands on His sudden debut in the commercial field was observed by his employers and his services dispensed with. Morton finally ran foul of the police and to them told the story of his aspirations to become a cigar salesman and his downfall. He was told to vanish in the direction of Iowa or the bleak prairies of South Dakota, while there was yet time. He vanished. MARKET HOUSE IS CROWDED Municipal Plant Playing to Stand!
