From now on about the only things on the Burlington road or connected therewith that will smoke will he the locomotives I'he Burlington is out with a smoke order that is even more far-reaching than the one recently promulgated by the Unfon Pacific. The Union Pacific company employes while in the of- fices and corridors of the headquanters building during office hours. The Bur- lington order is made to apply to all officials as well as employes and pro- the headquarters building. The order is signed by the general manager. I'he understanding is that the scope of the Burlington anti-smoke order is to be widened so as to take in agents and others out on the line and that they will be prohibited from smoking in or around company property at all times during work hours. 1t is asserted that the anti-smoke order is not for the purpose of de- | priving the men of any of their lib- crties, but is on account of a demand made by the public. It is said that coming i contact with company em- ployes there are numerous people, both men and women, to whom to- bacco smoke is offensive and that no partiality be shown the order is made general. It is effective at once. Nebraska to Have Federal Aid for Good Roads Work of the Fifth district under the new federal road act, is in_Omaba at present looking for an office location from which to administer the affairs of this road-building program. Mr. Wonders is somewhat surprised at the high rents demanded in office buildings here, although he is some- what partial to Omaha as the loc tion for the headquarters of the dis- trict. Kansas Citv is the other city considered as headquarter. There are ten federal districts un- der this act. Nebraska, lowa, Kansas and Missouri constitute the Fifth dis- trict. The federal appropriation for the building of roads in this district is $8,500,000. The program contemplates a period of five years. An important condition is attached to the program, which is that the respective states | must appropriate for good roads work an amount equal to the amount the federal government gives for the pur- pose. Thus it is possible that not all | of the $8,500,000 will be spent in these states, but such part o” it will be spent as the states are willing to meet dol- lar for dollar. ture this winter will have this matter before it, and will have up the problem of how large an appropria- tion to make for roads in order to get as much as possible of this federal money as an auxiliary fund.

TO ABOLISH WATER BOARD [he clectric light contract was cu- dorsed at a mecting of the Federated Improvement clubs “Thursday night in the city hall. Each club represent- ed made a list of the locations where lights are needed in its vicinity, and !this list will be handed into the city commissioners for approval. The delegates from the Southwest Improvement club, which club started this agitation for lights three years ago, expressed great satisfaction over | the victory at the polls Tuesday in I'the approving by so large a major- ity of the voters oi the city of the light contract. The committee appointed a year ago on the new uptown Union depot was urged to get busy with other or- ganizations, especially the Commer- cial club, in urging all railroads en- tering Omaha to co- operate with them on a new uptown Union depot, and that committee \nll call upon other organizations to join them soon in calling for a mass mt‘ctmg of cit= ‘ucns to take some action on this matter i Sympathize With Farmers. A resolution of sympathy with the farmers of Douglas county, who are fighung the proposed tax for the pav- ing of Pacific street from Sixtieth street west, was passed and a com- | mittee appointed to go before the next legislature to urge the repeal of the act requiring this tax. | The credentials of three new ime | provement clubs, recently organized, | were accepted and the delegates duly installed, The legislative committee was in- | structed to co-operate with other or- ganizations for the passing of a bill the law creating the Metropolitan Water district and the Water board and place the management of the water plant under the control of the city commissioners. A large number of street improve- ments were discussed, including the wenty-fourth street widening, estab- lishing a grade on St. Mary's avenue and Howard street and the opening of Douglas street. Meanest Man Robs Poor Watchman of His Year's Crop “meanest man in the world” is the man (?) who stole forty bushels of corn belonging to John {ennon, 1032 South Twenty-second street, civil war veteran and resident of Omaha for forty-two years, | Mr. Lennon has worked as watch man on building operations in Omah! for years and is now day watchma; at the'new First National bank buij ing. Out of his savings he had bought three lots at Forty-third street ‘and Hartman avenue. He planted corn on his lots, hoping to make a little money that way. The crop, flourished and produced a plentiful harvest. When he went up to husk it the “meanest man” had been there before him. The corn was all | gone. “Last year I got thirty bushels of corn from the three lots,” said Mr. Lennon, “and this year the crop would have yielded more. It is hard to lose what I labored hard to get.” Colds Need Attention. Your cold needs Dr. Bell's Pine-Par- Honey; It cuts phlegm, kills germs, stops the cough.
