RAILWAYS AND HOTELS (By William J. Shields) Chef Rich Harris was in town this week. The patron’s put up such a howl on union music that the Henshaw called up Adam’s orchestra and asked them to please come back home. We .are trying to figure out the union’s next move. Your sweetheart, wife or sister, wants a box of O’Brien’s Candy. Ask her and see. A new ten-story hotel is to be erected on the site of the Schlitz hotel next year. Let us hope that Colored waiters will be employed. The Monitor has heard much about the effort of A1 Jones at the Castle and in the near future will tell its readers something about it. John Ruskin Cigar, 5 cents. Biggest and Best. One thousand and one waiters have promised to send in news for our pages and one has. The other thou sand, we guess, are still busy on their manuscripts. Hurry, boys. Remember Freling and Stenle. Tney carry the finest line of trunks, bags and suit cases in Omaha. Hotel men are all “up in the air” as to what is to happen January 1. All kinds of rumors are afloat and they are enough to make everyone a bit expectant. John Ruskin Cigar, 5 cents. Biggest and Best. The physician ordered A. P. Sim mons to quit barbering and find some v'crk that would give him more exer cise to save himself from a break down. Simmons entered a demurrer, but the doctor was insistent and told him if he couldn’t find anything else, to get busy around his own shop. That is the reason why that the pro prietor of the Ess-Tee-Dee has as sumed the porter duties at his famous tonsorial parlors. John Woods came in from St. Louis Wednesday and says that business is a bit quiet in the Missouri burg. W. D. Sandifor is boosting strong for The Monitor out Los Angeles wa ? ur.d we appreciate it. Homer Alexander stopped the busi ness manager of The Monitor the oth er day and handed him $2.50 for his subscription to the paper. We appre ciate his appreciation of our effort and hope to meet some others in the same way soon. The Adams Saxophone Orchestra lost their engagement at the Henshaw because of the union. Bob Johnson has purchased half in terest in the Russell pool hall at 20th and Cuming, and welcomes his friends and well wishers. Smoke John Ruskin 5c Cigar. Big gest and Best.—Adv. Albert Green is working at Maur er’s. Atkisson, the home of the famous Nettleton Shoe, has favored us with a fine ad. Look it up, boys, and give him a play. The Keystone lodge has sent John M. Wallace to Hot Springs, Ark., where it is hoped he may regain his health. TO SUBSCRIBERS Please look at the number on the yellow label on your paper.

T\7E have three drug stores In Glve ’ * ad am Gulch, and not one of them dares to keep a hairbrush, a tooth brush or a fine comb In stock. • They say the community would take It as an Insult They do sell peppermint essence now and then, but that Is the limit allowed ThiB Is a tip for any new druggist thinking of coming here. AN INVITATION. Will the genteman who threw a stone through the window of the post office last Tuesday night, and thus routed us out of our beds, please call some other night soon? We got out of bed Just a few seconds too late, and our bullet plowed through his coattail instead of his back. POLITICAL QUERY. On his last trip the Lonejack mall rider was pursued by seven wolves. In order to make his escape he had to throw away his mall bag, and he says It was devoured In a minute. The padlock was even swallowed, and it seemed to please the wolf that got the choice titbit. Why doesn’t the east send some of Its politicians out here and let us give them a ride Into the pine clad hills? I>-— WANTED A CHANGE. AN several different occasions we have said to Ben Williams through these columns that this town couldn't appreciate a man of his eccentric con duct. Ben didn’t believe us. He continued to drink, quarrel and shoot at everybody who differed with him on Biblical questions, and last night the boys took him out and gave him four dozen lashes on the bare back and asked him if he wanted a change of climate. He did. He wanted it bad. He was hunting for it when last seen, and It he is wise he won't return here for some years to come. THE EDITOR'8 GRAVEYARD. We passed our private graveyard yesterday, and the sight set us medi tating upon our victims. They lie there to the number of twen ty-two, and they sleep well and peace fully. If we had not sent them there to sleep they might lie today In forgotten graves. It was our sad duty to plant them where they are, but we did It as gently as we could and bore them no 111 will. We mediate and recall the incidents, but we cannot find anything to trouble our editorial conscience. May they continue to slumber In peace. M.
