Air. Iloldvcgo , for wliose ability and hon
esty of jwrposo I Invu muclirospcct , on May
21 , IS'JO. nt a meeting of tbo state board of
trunspoitation , made the statement that the
B. A.M. railway earupil In l vr on actual In
vestment , 7.10 percent , In 1S , 'U7 percent :
and In USD. 5.57 per cent. The Xcbraska
Stale Journal , my authority for this state
ment of Mr. Holdrege , docs not lvo the
amount of "actual cost" upon which these
avorigos nro figured , bull presume that they
are based upon a Miluntlon of something over
f 5iK)0 , ) iwr milo a llguro which Mr. Hol-
assumed "for the sake ot
dregc onra , argu
ment , " In an open letter to Attoinoy-dcneral
L.UCIC , condciniiing his cff oils to secure u re
duction in rates.
I will endeavor to show tint those figures
ha\e noiquitablebcailng tlio questloa
of icdudng fielKht rates in this state at this
timo. In the following discussion I have
g iven some ilgurcs whoso rdovnncy may note
b o fully apparent until the llnil : conclusion
ns to cost to stockholders and earnings , which
I seek to establish , is readied. My reason
Ionising them is that they ill form collateral
arguments in favor of this conclusion.
In the llrst place , I wish to disprove the
assertion , frequently heard , that the financial
risks attendant upon the projection of thoB.
& > 1. vullway company in Nebraska were
such as to now equitably entitle It to a larger
profit upon its investment than -\vouldbo
entitled to had its road been flrst built In amore
moro densely populated district of our coun
try , In Poor's .Manual for 18M8"J , page

opeiation from Plattsinoutlito Harvard , 140
miles , and was graded ready for Iron to
Kearney , the Junction with tbo Union Pacific
railway , llfty miles nuttier , the cost of the
comtruitlon and equipment of the road
is given at (5,073,1)81.57 ( , ) , while the
bonded Indebtedness Is Riven at 93,587,971. ,
( -Attention is here called to the correaiioii-
dotico in these two preceding amounts , ) The
capital stocltof the road is ftlvenat $3,533,700 ,
k.but the amount paid in Is stat-ed at t'J19.70- '
75) , The statement therefore confesses to
$7 , H.4.9.21.of ' unpaid stoik vhicli may bo
considered as representing the value of the
luiul grant.
Later , by DeccmborSl , 1872 , the stockhold
ers had Increased the ninouut paid in on stock
\to ( ' .XU.OO' ) , nnd had also gained control of the
Omaha k SouthAostcrn railway , havliiK for

nnd milking a cash pnjment of about $ W,000 ) , ,
thus incroaaUg the length of tlicir road toSIJO
miles. Thcroforo , the stockholders had paid
in at that time , according to the railway com
pany's statement , the sum of ? t,0.1.r > .15 per
mlle to gain con tiol of their raid. Now. in
connection with tills fact MO will add that by
Juno , ' 10 , 1STII , there had , according to tbo
statement of this company , been ccitlllcd to
it from tha United States land onico , 2.H70-
OTiUll nrrcs , nnd from Nebraska bO,0X ( ) acres
( incliullni ; 3u,0 < M acres acquired with the
Onwhiut Southwestern mil way ) malting a
total of iVriO hM. ! ! ! acres , \\hlch majjiiiil-
ccnt doiiuticn it still expected an addition of
about U.OOO acres.
As curly us Dccomlior 31,1S73 , , the company
lind sold ( > 27,4'J7.I , ncrcs to4. 0J purchasers
for the sum of ( I,1H'S1S,11 ) , nn average of
about fS per acre. .At this time cash pay
ments received on the lands amounted to
$ * ! ? , " > , IJilTO and cxpomes to a7l > ,07-w : , and
tlio company had notes and obligations aris-
liif fi oin its land grant amounting to &J.510-
-t 03i.u. :
DThus wo sco that on December 01,1373 , this
coiporationlmtl actually over 41 per cent of
the ainountuf its whole funded Indebtedness
nnd paid in stock hi assets arising from the
ealoof less than one-fourth of Its total land

that time could liardly bo considered an evidence -
denco of llmnciul heroism ; and ut least will
not boix-gardedas entitling a , stockholder to
uny .sjieclnllognl immunity at present.
I now desire to show , as a stop toward a
conclusion , that during unit from lfoT > totbo
presoiil year the Chicago , liurllngton &
l ulncy railway company has been building
'i ' .iilnow lines In Nebraska , Colorado , Wy
oming and Kansas from the proceeds of the
sale of first moitgago bonds. Accordingly ]

outstanding Just prior to IbSO , I have not de
termined , at this imttcr Is merely collateral
to the llgincs I will plvo bolow. I will state ,
however , that on December HI , 1878 , the
bonded indebtedness of the I ) . & M. in

and that In 18SO , by the consolidation of tlio

Qulncy acquired 83'J miles of road upon which
It assumed a bonded Indebtedness of $18,701-

that the II , ft M. in Nebraska husbcon built

the probability that the stockholders paid in

I think , thcroforOjthat I have demonstrated
the utifalruoas of the argument of JMr.
Ilolilregoand the state board of transporta
tion In icgavd to earnings of the roiul , and the
interest they pay on what they term actunl
cost. I have shown that the net per cent of
tliocnrulnifs which they have given are not
thomcisuroof the prollts that these earn
ings bring to the stockholders.
AVe will not claim that our intes should bo so
reduced as to allow the stockholders to earn
only 8 or 10 per cent on the margin invested ,
but a consideration of the figures wo have
given above will convince in that the state
can allow stockholders to oam n largo rate of
interest not only on whatever cosh margin
they huvo invested , but on the value of the
land grant as well mid still innko a very laijo
reduction in loi-al rates. And the time is p.ibt
when tlio people will defer to an argument as
to net earnings which takes no account of the
proportion of bonded indebtedness to total cost
ami the relation of Interest paid on bands to
earnings uudo on the proceeds of thoio
bonds.
I would go further Into this question did
snaco penult. Ouo word us to the political
situation. Our board of transportation ,
elected by the republican party , have rou-
deied it Imperative upon that party to do-
elnro lUelf 1111011 the railway question , not In
words , us heretofore , but In candidates. The
division of citizens into those opposed to rail
road domination In politics and these In favor
of It , which has boon nude at every political
giithoriug Inthlsbtiitofor two years , cannot
bo kept out of the coming state convention.

The members of the Methodist churches of
this city entertained two notable clerical vis
itors during the week. The first of these was
Uov. A. J. ICynctt , D. D. , L.L. D. , who nr-
rived in the city on the 12th. Last Sunday
moiiilug ho preached an admirable sernnu In
the First MethoJlst church.
Dr. Kyucttls ono of the high ofilclals In the
Methodist church In the United States , hav
ing been secretary of the church extension
society for nearly Uventy-llvo years. The
doctor Is n member of the Upper Iowa confer
ence , v 1th his ofllclal residence in I'hllndol-
phla. On two occasions ho has received a
highly complimentary vote for the bishopric ,
Tno doctor was eurouto to Colorado , Wyo
ming nnd Utah , where ho will labor In the
Held of church extension. Upon nn urirent
Invitation extended to him by Dr. P. S , Merrill -
rill of the 1'lrst church and others , ho stopped
hero to speak at the First inomoilnl servlco
and at the meeting to InauRUrato the work of
crectinp a church hospital held at the First
church Tuesday night.
Tno other distinguished Methodist dlvlno
that was entertained in Omaha this week was
Hov. 13.1C. Younif , D.D. . who spent Tuesday
\Vcdnesday In the city , taking part with
lr. ) Kynott la the hospital mooting and be
coming his traveling companion from hero
Into the wcit. Dr. Young Is pastor of Oraco
Methodist Episcopal church In Philadelphia ,
and la one of the moU eminent divines In the
cast. lib is now enjoying n vacation tour and
intends to mulco a tour of Alaska before his
return to the City of Biothcrly Lovo.
These two men have known each other and
have been associated together for years ,
They even associated together in the early
church work in Iowa , and hnvo been closely
related in their church connections In the
oast.
It was intcroitinB to note nt the hospital
meeting held last Tuesday the difference that
exists hi tlio personnel of these two old aud
familiar friends.
Dr. Young is small and slender and dnrlc.
His eyes nro keen nnd piercing , and his lips
thin nnd nervous. Dr. ICynctt , on the con
trary , Is very largo. Dr. Young said the
other night that they had grown tip together ,
but thnt JJr. ICynctt had done nearly all o
the growing , and tlin was true. Hh face is1
loimd and Jolly , while his kindly eyes aio
hidden bohlad pold-ritmnod spectacles.
Dr. Kynctt Is a pleasant speaker. Dr.
Voting Is an orator.
Tlio visit of these gentlemen was an nil-
vantage to the church hero and it Is to bo
hoped that it was a pleasant and agreeable
0110 to them.
Trinity Cathedral Choir.
In no city west of Chicago and cast of the
Rocky mountains is there a larger nnd as
well trained a church choir as the ono that
enlivens the services at Trinity cathedral in
this city.
Dean Gardner Is ono of those men who
would rather hear one of the glad tmthorns of
the Ijpisropal service sung by an immense
choir of fresh young voices than to listen tea
a nuartotto wading through soiuo selection
which , though possessed of artistic merit ,
has no Inspiration or soul in it.
The dean has labored to bring the cathed
ral choir up to a high standard ol excellence
and ussititfd by Mrs , .1. W. Cotton , Prof. J.
E. liutlcr and others ho has succeeded.
The choir proper is surpllcod and consists
of men anil boys. Tim latter range in ago
from nine to sixteen years and what they
have accomplished is simply wonderful.
They sing the most dlttleult muulo will ; , case
and svrvico after service passes without n
discord.
The ohnlr-orRanhntlon Is as follows !
Professor J. E. liutlor , organist and choir

The MethoillHt Hospital.
At a meeting held nt the First Methodist
Episcopal cuivh last Tuesday evening , steps
were Uihen towards getting tbo church hos
pital project fairly under way. There was n
fair attendance and much interest was mani
fested.
Rev. Dr Kynctt and Itev. Dr. Young of
Philadelphia were present and each made
an address. Dr. ICynctt said that at first ho
was not inclined to think that the church
peonlo hero would succeed In building a hos
pital , but after going among the pcoplo and
noting the onterpnso and push ho bccamo
convinced that he was mistaken in his llrst
impression and that ho was then assured that
the project would be crowned with success.

work.
The fact thnt a city of ISS.OOO had not ono
Institution i ; hero God's llttlo ones may find
suitable protection from the misery in which
they are often cast when loft homeless has
been always deplored ,
Many crime-stained Inmates of Nebraska's
reform schools and penitentiary are working
out n iniscrablo cxistuico who might have
mndo worthy , honorable citizens had they re
ceived uropcr care and training during their
early yrnrs. Every citizen should bo willing
to assist in the work of befriending the
homeless child , knowing that If contributions
nro not furnished In this way , as much or
moro will eventually bo assessed for their
mnlntennnco in reformatories.
The now orphanuga Is to bo situated on a
beautiful ten-aero pint which Is to bo entirely
for the use of the inmates , and the children
will have ample room for outdoor exorcise.

feet deep , with sulUclout room to nccoimno-
dnto 1HX ) children.

such questions as the ministers should bo dis
posed to a k. The gentlemenof tha cloth

for nearly thrco hours. The questions touched
upon every assnllablo point , and although the
doctor answered them all after a manner , ho
failed to make uny converts.

The last whim of fashion Is reddish-gold
hair , frizzed tightly nnd then pulled Into a
tangled mans nil over the head. This frizzled
treatment of coils and rolls means a destruc
tion to the hair that oiily young heads can
assume.
Miss Harriet Elaine , tlio youngest of the
thrco daughters of Secretary Elaine , is much
the prettiest , if not the cleverest of the fam
ily. She Is still a student but aspires to bo
her father's private secretary , counselor aad
confidential friend , as her mother baa always
been.
The dressmakers nro trying to make the
day gowns not only touch but trail on the
ground an inch or two , but at present women
nw averse to It as opposed to cleanliness and
durability , the fashion will , however , bo in
full force for the smart race and fete gowns.
Miss Juliet Corson , the well known "pro
fessor of domestic science , " continues to
teach her classes regularly though she is ho
confirmed nn invalid that her letters are road
by her t > cer > tary from dictation , while she di
rects and illustrates her methods of cookery
seated In an Invalid chair.
Miss .Tesslo Carson of Minnesota lia1 ? In
creased tlio number of available occupations
for women by becoming a stage driver. She
makes three trips a week , in all weather and

Here Is a novel way to scent a toilet , rill
a tluy pill bottle with ottar of rose or triple
extract of jasainino and let it evaporate un
corked. If In the crush of the promenade or
the flourish of the dnnco the vial ciptlios the
delicious essence will percolate through the
toilet and perfume It everlastingly. With
ottar of almond and rose , orange and lily ro-
tiiillng at 10 cents a drop , this ib by no means
an inexpensive fancy.
Though Miss Kessio Hess of Chlcaoro , has
boun pronounced a very pretty gill by the
quidnuncs of Paris and London , her face Is
by no means her only fortuae , as slio inlunits
through her mother , the vast i-stato of her
gr.uidlattier , tholato Tuthlll King of Chica
go , and since Miss MiCormiok bccamo Mrs.
Kiimious Ulalnc , has the good or ill luck to
bo the ricb"3t single woman iu that city of

The empress of Germany has military
tastes as well as her husband. At the late
grand review on Toinplohoftllil she was In the
saddle for two hours , rlcllug superbly and
leading her own regiment of cuirassiers past
the emperor. Her uniform as colonel was a
habit of white cloth , embroidered oa bboul-
dcrs and collar with the red and silver colors
of the regiment , and a throe-cornered white
lelt hat with many ostrich feathers , in which
she looked rcmaikably pretty.
Should you see a tiny silver brazier in my
lady's boudoir , lilto a bonbomiiero , tilled with
burning lui-ense , from which poarlv Uouds of
smoke are slowly rising through her long hair
as she spreads , it out , do not thiulc she is per
forming soiuo pagan rito. She has probably
just bathed her face in buttermilk and
washed her hair in bnv rum and bonix , ami is
now only drying and perfuming it in that
nivsticway. The faint scent thus dried in
will last n week , nnd may bo obtained from
burning Joss sticks In hko manner at u less
expense.
