PLENTY OF CARS 10 HANDLE THE GRAIN Railroads Able to Haul Wheat as Fast as Farmers Bring it in. MIX THE NEW WITH OLD The situation on grain shipment has temporarily eased up, according to officials of the railroads carrying Nebraska wheat to market. According to John A. Munroe, vice president of the Union Pacific, this may be due in part to the bullish sentiments of many of the farmers who are holding their grain in hope of a continuing rise in price. “When you see a farmer that is a bull on the grain market no other bull can compare with him,” said Mr. Munroe. “We are bringing in lots ot grain for the Omaha elevators and they are in bet- ter shape than ever before to handle the grain quickly, unloading the cars and allowing us to return them for another cargo” According to General Manager Frank Walters of the Northwestern, his road loaded 235 cars of grain in Nebraska Wenesday, ‘and has cars enough to supply demand at present. Some cars are being brought down from Dakota fields, owing to the de- creased yield in the northern states where the crop has been seriously injured by black rust and heat dam- age. Much of the Nebraska wheat is being bought for the export market, and Mr. Walters estimates that half is going to the Atlantic ports for ship- ment to Europe. Mix With New Wheat. Kansas wheat is moving in heavy volume, but many shipments are be- ing held on the chance of a rise in price. E. P. Hennessey, commercial agent of the Rock Island, says that his road is again able to supply cars where they are needed. He also says that many of the elevator men are making a very good thing out of the old wheat stored in their elevators, The crop last year was not of first grade quality, and by mixing it with the exceptionally heavy high grade crop which Nebraska raised this year they are able to raise the grade of the mixture and get a good profit on what they have held. Predicts Right at Home And Would Work for U. S. Colonel Welsh of the weather bureau has received a letter from a youth out in the state who offers his services to the government as a weather forecaster. “T have had great success in pre- dicting the weather here,” he wrote. “It has been th surprise of the peo- ple of this town. I am just a young fellow and would be willing to start at $150 a month. Then, if my predic- tions are good and I deliver the goods I would expect a raise. I know I can strike it oftener than the present government forecasters.” ] The young man will be allowed to continue his career in his own home town.

Samp, and two chil- dren, a man leaped out into the road near the Speedway, held up his hand and yelled to stop the car because of another car in trouble ahead, Mr. Suchart said he was so scared that he “just stepped on the gas and left the man in a cloud of dust,” al- though he knows that the would-be hold-up started after the car and pur- sued it for several rods Auto Club Wants City to Place Street Name Signs The Omaha Automobile club re- quests the city council to take action in the matter of placing street name signs at intersections where the in- formation would be of value to visit- ors, particularly touring automobil- ists. .

I wish it was more,” writes one con- tributer. It is enough and plenty when given with the spirit of generosity and con- cern for the poor. The protracted hot summer has been very hard on babies and young children of the poor. Misfortune had closed the means of getting cool, pure milk for them. But the contributers to The Bee's fund provided the means and these children are being brought safely through the hot days. | If you know of any poor child that| isn’t getting the care it should have, telephone The Bee. The case will be investigated promptly and relieved, Contributions are still welcome. weather this the Previously scknowledged $604.80 E. M. 8. 1.00 Total $605.80 Gold for Persons Who Suggest Best New Industry Ideas One hundred and fifty dollars in gold will be given by the Commercial club in exchange for new ideas to assist the *Omaha Industrial Plan.” A “What and Why” contest is started today with the object of get- ting everybody in Omaha and sur- rounding “territory to suggest what types 0? factories will most readil succeed in Omaha and why they will be successful. There is a first prize of $50 in gold. There is an Omaha Bee prize of $25, an Omaha World-Herald prize of $25 and an Omaha News prize of $25. There are ten third prizes of $2.50 each. Answers need not be long—less than 300 words is preferrable. The suggestion need not necessarily refer to a type of industry that is totally lacking in Omaha. Contestants may, if they choose, explain why another industry of a kind already represented here is apt to meet with conspicuous succ Others may argue in favor of some kind of plant that would be the first of its kind to locate here. The officials in charge of the work know of scores of types of industry that would succeed here. On the other hand they know that from thou- sands of suggestions from Omaha people they will get scores of new ideas the survey has failed to develop. Contestants are asked to send their answers on one or more sheets of Eapcr and to enclose a separate slip earing name and address. The con- test begins at once. It will close Sep- tember 8.

SHE THREATENS SUIOIDE An effort on the part of the authori- ties to locate Mrs. Christini Petersen, 1903 Vinton street, who disappeared from her home Tuesday morning, has been, so far, without avail. Mrs. Petersen was last seen as she left the house, carrying her 3-month- old baby. Sunday, following a do- mestic difficulty, Hans Petersen, the husband, left the city for South Da- kota. Mrs. Petersen was not seen by neighbors since then until Tues- day morning, when she locked the house and left. A friend inquired of her where she was going and she re- plied, “To the store.” Inquiry by Of- ficer Hans Nielsen, who investi- gating the case, later revealed that she had visited none of the nearby stores. Threatens Suicide. Repeated threats of suicide in which she asserted she would not only take her own life but that of her child, has led the police to believe that she has carried out her threats. Officer Nielsen gained entranee to the house Wednesday, where he dis- covered everything in perfect order, even to a completed laundry list pinned to a pile of linen. A search of the house failed to reveal any note that would throw light on the matter, while relatives and close' friends re- port that they have not seen or heard from her. The husband was located this morning and wired of his im- mediate departure from the north, for Omaha. Mrs. Petersen is 28 years of age, of medium height and build, and is light complected. She was dressed in a blue house dress when last seen. She has been in this country one year. Smith Returns from Long Trip to Coast Robert Smith, colonization agent of the Union Pacific, returned Wednesday from a two months’ busi- ness trip through the northwest and the Pacific coast cities. “Most of the country 1 passed through was in very good shape, with excellent crop prospects and good business in evidence. Portland, Seat- tle and Tacoma, all seemed to be en- joying a good business. California has not had as many tourists as last ear, but the beaches are well filled. he Estes Park country is filled with tourists this summer.” Mr. Smith was accompanied on the trip by his assistant, Isaiah Wheeler. e Seventy-one to Potter's Fleld.

(Continued From Venterday.) “Well, it's really awfully amusing,” said Inez, and Hope could hear her laughing softly. “I met him last sum mer at the Abernethy’s. They had a house party, you know, at their camp on Lake Placid. One afternoon Jarvis and I stafted to climb Whiteface mountain, but we lost our way in the woods, and, to make matters worse, a terrible storm came up. Fortunately we found a deserted cabin .. .. and there we spent the night. Jarvis be- haved beautifully .. .. he never slept a wink, but kept guard all night, though we had to remain there till morning. There were only two rooms in the place. I slept on the bed in one of them and he insisted on sitting up in the other. The next morn- ing we managed to find the trail again and made our way back to the Aber- nethy's, who were worried to death about us. I knew perfectly well how they would all raise their eyebrows if we told them that we had spent the night together in a deserted cabin, so I persuaded Jarvis that he had better t:fi them that we had spent the night together with the Lees, who have a camp on the lake. A few days later the camp party broke up without any- one suspecting anything. Jarvis was d evcr%hing was looking ordered to the Pacific coast and I r never expected to see him again. But last month when I was visiting Lucille Allen in Washington, I sat at dinner one night next to a very well known lawyer. He had had more champagne than was good for him and he was very atlkative and confidential. In the course of our conversation something was said about Jarvis and the lawyer remarked: “That young man is going to be one of the richest officers in the navy one of these days.” “‘Nonsense,’ I answered. ‘I happen to know that he n't anything ex- cept his lieutenant’s pay,’ “‘And I happen to know," said the lawyer, ‘that he is the sole heir of Theodore Wickham. “‘Not Theodore Wickham, the steel magnate,’ I asked. “‘The same,’ said he. ‘He is Jarvis Hope's uncle.’ ““How do you know all this' I asked him, “‘I know it he replied, ‘because we are Theodore Wickham’s attorn- eys and I have seen his will. But 1 must beg of you, Miss Machin, not to repeat what I have just told you. I'm afraid I have talked too much.’ “‘Don't worry,’ I answered, ‘I shall not repeat it.” “But that set me thinking. Papa had had some serious reverses in Wall, street and mamma and I had been forced to economize. We had had to give up the cottage at Bar Harbour and one of the motors and pretty blue. “‘Why not marry Jarvis Hope? 1 said to myself. ‘He's good looking and goes in good society, and he has a brilliant future ahead of him. And he's going to be immensely rich very soon, for his uncle is past 80 and in miserable health.’” “But how did he happen to propose to you?' queried Miss Langham, deeply interested. “He didn’t,” Inez confessed, with a shade of embarrassment. “I proposed to him.” “What!” exclaimed her visitor in- credulously. “Well, not that, exactly,” said Inez, laughing, “but I wrote him a letter saying that my friends had learned that we had spent the night together in the cabin, that I was facing social ostracism, and that he owed it to me to put an end to the gossip by coming east and marrying me.” “You didn’t. You're joking, Inez,” Miss Langham ejaculated in shoc! sK;prise. “You couldn’t do such a thing.” “I did,” said Inez, unabashed. “And it worked like a charm.
