STENGER HEAD OF U. P. OPERATING ormer Omaha Man is Named as the General Superintendent. Suc- ceeding Jeffers. WAS FORMERLY CIVIL ENGINEER President Mohler of the Union Pa- cific has returned from the west and about the first thing he. did yes- terday after a conference with Gen- eral Manager Jeffers was to name Ernest Stenger general superintend- ent of the Union Pacific system, with headquarters in Omaha. Mr. Stenger will take charge of the affairs of the office today. That Mr. Stenger had a hunch that he was likely to be named general su- perintendent was possible, for he came up from St. {gscph Tuesday night and was one of the early callers at head- quarters. Shortly afterward his ap- pointment was made public. He suc- ceeds W. M. Jeffers, who recently was promoted to the pocition of general manager, succeeding Charles Ware, who resigned. Rise Has Been Fast. The advancement of Mr. Stenger as a railroad man has been a marvel to railroaders. As a lad, some twenty years ago, he worked in the office of the city engineer of Omaha. He did all kinds of work, from axeman up to running a transit. This training he se- cured under Andrew Rosewater, who for many years was head of the city engineering department. Later in his career Mr. Stenger became assistant city engineer and some ten years ago Teft the employ of the city, going into railroad work. The first railroad work that he did was out on the Union Pacific main line, where he had charge of the double tracking in the vicinity of Grand Island. He continued in the en- gineering department for several years and made good. Next he was given a position as assistant superin- tendent, and then the superintendency of the St. Joseph & Grand Island road, one of the auxiliaries of the Union Pa- cific. He held this for a time and then was promoted to the position of gen- eral manager. He was serving in this position at the time of his promotion to the general superintendency of the Union Pacific. g - To Move to Omaha. For the present, at least, Mr. Sten- ger will continue to exercise the duties of general manager of the Grand Island road, these being added to his jurisdiction as géneral super- intendent of the Union. Pacific. He will move his family to Omaha and resided here. Mr. Stenger is 51 years old. He was born in Colmar, Alsace, and came to the United States when he was a child. He was graduated from the University of Michigan in the class of 1866 and immedrately came west, and since then Omaha has been his home the greater portion of the time.

A few weeks ago he was riding in his automobile in the vicinity of Llev- enth and Grace streets, otherwise known as the “lake region.” In this section there are ponds and sloughs with cat-tails and musk-rat houses. This condition has existed for twen- ty years. Looking over the ground Mr. Jar- dine discovered that at a point some distance to the northeast the land is four feet lower than the upper lake south of Grace street. Getting out his handbook he learned that water flows down-hill. He detailed several men Sl S Soothes Your Cough and Cold.

' The blood is the great source of nourishment for all flesh tissues. When the blood is not pure it carries poisons and impurities to all parts of the body, causing local ills that cannot be cured until the blood is purified. Rheumatism, Catarrh and Malaria are the direct result _of impurities in the blood. It shows in such symptoms as.a lack pf energy, loss of appetite, sleeplessness, and many other little ills that may become serious if the cause of them, blood impuri- ties, is not removed. Nature has given us the true remedy for blood dis- orders and their kindred ills; in the roots and herbs from which 8. S§. 8. is ‘made.

Each succeeding one has been a little larger than.the former. \ et There will be plenty of help this time, so that all may be served promptly, and we believe plenty of goods also, but the only safe rule 18 to come early. Grover Cleveland invented the phrase: “We are confronted with a condition, not a theory.” Customers who find a condition where two articles grow for the price of one, plus one cent, appreciate . the condition. One manufacturer p'nctic%lly donated five gross of goods for this sale, so that we might give publicity to his particular article, and' this item has been on the market for 26 years, and is a good sellér at that. Our poet got busy the other day and ground out this: “It is not wealth, nor rank, nor state, But ‘get up and git’ that makes men great.” o \ . The prescription business will receive pains-taking care, s usual, during this great sale. This can easily be done, as these departments are removed from the bustle of our busy salesrooms, and in charge of preuc‘xgxyptlonisu who devote. their entire time to this work. e cannot promise to deliver One Cent Sale Goods, at least not on the day goods are purchased.
