'NO MORE TEACHERS' |Railroads Have a TRAINING SCHOOL Big Task Ahead in Fixing for Winter With the return of good weather, of- ficials of the rallroads opersting out of Omaha will immediately begin putting the lines in condition for the winter. This fall the amount of work to Be dome is far in excess of former years, due to the unusually heavy and frequent rains dur- ing the last two months. According to the railroad reports the amount of precipitation so far this sea- son has been greater than normally and besides this, it has come in heavy down- pours, washing grades badly and soften- ing practically all the roadbeds along the valleys and over the low lands. As & result, the aMount of work to be done this fall will be much more than usual. In many places along the western lines, there are long stretches that will have to be rebulit. Bridges over most of the streams will bave to be strengthened and a vast amount of work will have to be done around culverts. On account of the volume of the work, operations will start earlier than in former years and will be continued until the ground freeses solld. WELSH WILL NOT PREDICT ANYTHING ON EARLY FALL When asked whether or not any fore- caat could be made concerning an early fall, Mr. Welsh, local forecaster, an- nounced that nothing could be sald by anyone that would tell, even approxi- mately, anything concerning the coming fall. “But,” sald Mr. Welsh, “don't belleve in an early fall until you see that it is here.” POLICE, BURGLARS AND 11NGF NEARLY.
