——— e THE 1915, CAR JUMPS BRIDGE AND LANDS IN TREE | John Cunningham Sustains Broken Leg and Five Unknown Occu- | pants Are Bruised. BEEK TO AVOID mucxn; An automobile landed in a tree (curl on the Millard road, about ten miles west of Omaha, and its occupants, | four men and two women, were | dumped through the limbs of the tree | Into a thirty-foot gully, shortly ufter; midnight Saturday night. The tree| is probably all that saved them from death. One of the occupants, John Cun-| ningham, 1103 North Twenty-third street, South Side, who operates a saloon at Twenty-fourth and Q streets, sustained a broken arm, an| injured leg and other hurts. | The other autoists sustained va-| rious injuries. One of the women is sald to have received a broken leg, while the other is said to have suf- fered a wrenched back. All were bedly bruised and shaken up. Cunningham, who is recuperating at the | home of his brother, James Cunningham, J01 V street, South Side, says he does not know the names of anf of his fellow passengers in the wrecked car, nor the name of the owner of the car. He says he was just riding in from Millard with them and does not desire to talk further of the matter. Some of the Injured people were taken in other autos to the South Omaha hos- vital, where their injuries were attended to. Then they went away without giving thelr names, the hospital authorities say, and semed to want to avold publicity. Roy and Harry Swanson, 2010 California street, wero motoring along the same road shortly after the accident happened, and with other autoists helped the in- Jured people out of their predicament. Two of the men were taken to Fortleth and Farnam streets by the Swanson brothers, where they caught a late street car. The two young women in the party were taken direct to the hospital, as thelr injuries were considered the most serjous. Goen Over Bridge. The accident is supposed to have re- sulted from the speeding car striking a plece of timber that had been carelessly left lying across the floor of a big steel bridge. When the auto hit it the car veered to one side and over the edge of the bridge, where it hung suspended, one end resting on the bridge and the other end resting in the tree top. According to Roy Swanson, one of the women remained in the boughs of the tree, while the other occupants of the auto were dumped through the limbs onto the ground, the severity of their fall be- ing greatly lessened by the tree. Swan- #on says he did not learn the names of any of the injured people, nor number of the auto that had the mishap. It was badly wrecked. Dozen Guests Are Invited to Hear Ex-Seggtor Burton A dozen guests ¥rom varfous parts of the state have been invited to places at the speakers’ table Wednesday noon at the Commercial club when ex-United States Senator Burton of Ohlo is to apeak at the public affairs Juncheon, Those already invited are: Congress- man M.

Senator Burton is to speak on “Nine- teen Hundred and Fifteen and Its Rela- tion to Business Conditions.” At .night he is to speak to the McKinley cluh, Omaha Hospitality Being Sung Abroad The letter carriers who were enter- tained in their national convention by Omaha were very well pleased with| Omaha hospitality, as witness the fol- lowing paragraph from an article by Charles H. Scoggins of Oakland, Cal, published in the Postal Record: Never in all of my experience as a na- tional convention microbe have I seen a more whole-souled welcome tendered by A city than that tendered the delegates to the Omeha convention by the gov nor, mayor and postmaster. Vestless, with wilted collars and steaming faces, red from the summer's heat, these men stood before us in all the sincerity of plain informal manhood and gave us a welcome that one could not but feel proud of, and the honesty and sincerity that shone from their eyes told us better than words that they were glad to have us with them. Well I know that many an_Omaha carrler's heart will beat in sadness when their present big-he | postmaster must step aside. ‘ DIETZ GIVES PICTURES OF ANIMALS TO LIBRARY Children who avall themselves of the public library privileges are much inter- ested in a number of close-up photo- graphs of wild animals, which have been hung in the children’s room of the {ibrary. President C. N. Dietz of the library board presented eleven framed photo- enlargements of wild animals and Rocky mountain scenery, which were taken by Enos Mills, the Estes park naturalist. Miss Edith Tobitt, the librarian, hung pictures of a grizzly bear cub, mountain sheep and beaver in the children’s room. Other pictures were hung in other rooms on the second floor. The photographs of the animals taken by Mr. Mills at a distance of only' six or eight feet, and are remarkable studies of their kind, resuiting from long and persistent effort and great experi- ence. Cured Moy of Oroup. Nothing frightens a mother more than the loud, hoarse cough of croup. The labored breathing, strangling, choking and gasping for breath call for instant ection. Mrs. T.

GRAIN IS FINDING READY SALE The freight car shortage starts in this week in a most acute form, with every indication that it is going to| keep on increasing. Omaha grain re- celpts yesterday were around 400 cars, with eqaully as great at the other grain markets, Railroad mren figure that in hand- ling the cars in the most expeditious manner it takes at least a week for a | freight car to make a round trip, and as a rule the time is about as long again. Thus it is easy to be seen that the Omaha market alone requires an immense number of cars to handle the grain in its trade territory. What 18 true of Omaha Is equally true of Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louls, Min- neapolis, Duluth, Wninipeg and the other big grain markets, so that besides the cars that are bringing the grain to the markets, there is an equal number tak- ing it to the sea ports and an equally great number enroute back to the loading points, Every road operating into Omaha is making every possible effort to get cars out into the grain territory and at the same time every road finds itself short on cars, Receipts Ave Heavy, Right now the bulk of the grain com- ing to Omaha passes through the ele- vators here, is blended and then goes out on the milling in transit rate, destined for gulf ports. Recelpts are about the heaviest in"the history of the market, #0 far as wheat is concerned, the grain on hand in storage not showing the real volume of the grain business transacted Missouri Pacific, Rock Island and Bur lington officials representing the roads that do the bulk of grain business to the Bulf ports assert that the export demand is the heaviest ever known, and that at Galveston and New Orleans scores of ves- sels are lying at the docks or out in the harbors waiting to load out. At this time the greater portion of the shipments are going to England and France, though Germany is able to now and then get out a cargo. American owners of the wheat and other grains going abroad are not taking any chances on losses. It is asserted | that In every Instance as soon as a boat is loaded and before it welghs anchor the cargo of grain is paid for and the owner | has the money In his pocket \Omaha Represented in Big Studebaker Endurg,nce Contest E.

BIG INCREASE IN BUSINESS The Omaha postoffice handles par- cel post packages at a lower cost than any other city in the United States, namely about one-fourth of a cent oach. This fact was established by the semi-annual count of packages in the fifty largest cities of the country. The further fact was established that there has been a tremendous in- crease in the volume of pareel post lusiness and, while the size limit of rackages has been constantly in- creased, the cost of handling has at the same time decreased. The semi-annual count fs made during |the first fifteen days of October. The increase in the number of pack- |ages handled at the local office is in- | dicated by these figures made during the first fifteen days of October each year that the parcel post has been in operation Outgolng. Incoming | October 1 to 15, 1918.. October 1 to 15, 1014 October 1 to 15, 1915 Of the 40,324 incoming parcels during these fifteen days 27,431 were delivered by regular carriers without extra cost; 2,80 were dellvered by substitutes on toot at A cost of 3.1 cents each; 4,463 were dellv- ered by automoblle at a cost of 1.83 centa each and 7,280 by horse-drawn vehicles at a cost of 1.4 cents each. The cost of delivery by substitutes on foot 1s the highest of all delivery costs and this mode of delivery is constantly belng curtalled, dropping from 28 per cent in 1913 to 6.68 per cent In 1915, The low cost of handling the parcels in Parcel Post Packages Handled at| | the Omaha office, which 1s now % n-m{ [ per parcer, | cost of 59 cent per parcel in 1913, when | the parcel post mervice was instituted. Plan Quadrangle of Eight Buildings for Medic School The new state hospital bullding to be erected in connection with the University of Nebraska College of Medicine in Omaha at Forty-second and Harney streets, is to form the central bullding in the group of medical college bulldings |that are eventually to form a stately quadrangle. Although up to the present time there s but one bullding at the medioal collee, the architectural plan in ‘Iln entirely calls for eight structures, ar- ranged in®a magnificent square. The present bullding is bullt according to the |tlan and is to form one corner of the |final quadrangle, whenever futuye legis- latures shall appropriate enough to com- | plete the plan.
