CHICAGO , May 10. Nine railroads that
the ChlcnRO , Durllngton & Qulncy company
_ . , - ' ' lias been operntlnR under lenses for years
have been bought outright by this corpora-
tlon nnd hereafter they will bo parts of the
lilg system. Following nro the roads whoso
Block and franchises have been sold to the
Ilurllngton : Illinois Valley & Northern ,
Gnlcsburg & lllo , Chicago & lown , 1'corla &
Hannibal , Ottawa , Oswego & Fox Itlvcr Val
ley ; Illinois Grand Trunk , American Central ,
Qulncy & Warsaw , St. Louis , Hock Island &
Chicago. The purchase of those roads solidi
fies tbo system cast of the Missouri river.
It Is said that thu owners of the Burling
ton ilo not Intend to stop with thcso pur
chases , but will pursue the centralizes
policy until nil of the auxiliary lines now
operated by them under leases or otherwise
nro absorbed. Recently the Chicago , Bur
lington & Northern was taken in this way
nnd Itio next line booked for sale IB the Han.

Jlny llrenk .Sntitlirrii I'ncllUMonopoly
Ilnllroad men are looking with Interest on
the prospect of a breaking of the monopoly
of Dm business In the extreme southwest
which the Southern Pacific bns always cn-
Joyod. Tbo Santa Fo has progressed so far
tis to bo able to announce the approaching
opening of a through train service from
Chicago to Stockton , Cnl. , and a probable
direct entrance In San Francisco by the end
of the Bummer. When these things have
been accomplished , thcro will probably bo an
end to the discussion which has gene on In
California and the far west for years , as to
whether tha Southern Pacific had done a
great deal for the region or had selllBhly
pursued Its own end . All residents of that
part of the country , 'whether friendly to the
Southern Pacific or hostile , welcome a corn-
gating road Into tbo territory. It Is certain
that more of thorn nro glad to sco the road
como In than nro sorry the Southern Pacific
will lose Its Kolo control of the country.
Tbo Santa Fo got Into the country by
purchasing a controlling Interest In the San
Jonquln Valley railroad , < bullt north and
Bouth through the elate by Spreckels
Brothers nnd ' .Mayor Sutro. To connect this
with the terminal of tholr own line , they
liavo had to lease trackage rights of the
Southern Pacific through the Mojave desert.
CInlin AKontN to Meet.
.T. II. Manchester , general claim agent of
the Union Pacific , will leave this week for
Coburg , Canada , where ho will adjust a
claim , wndwill then proceed to Buffalo , N.
Y. , where ho will attend the meeting of the
national association of claim agents. This
Is an organization which Mr. Manchester was
Instrumental In having formed , being among
the 11 rat to suggest It. It has become ono
of the strongest bodies of Its kind in the
country and has proven of great value to
the members. The claim agents of all the
largo roads of tbo country are members of
It and attend Its nnnual sessions regularly ,
iwhcre they discuss methods of settling
claims , Improvements In the service , newly
discovered means of defrauding the com
panies and kindred subjects. Addresses nro
inado by eminent medical and legal authori
ties ; by the former on the nature of Injuries
nnd diseases produced by railway accidents
and the various devices by which the symp
toms are simulated , nnd by the latter on the
legal phases of claims against railroad com
panies. Every year the association pub
lishes the results of the mooting and the ad
dresses made before it.
Association.
Kows from the Chicago meeting of pas
senger officials Indicate that thcro Is a good
chance of securing the Union Pacific for a
member of the now western association
when It is organized. Heretofore the road
lias refused to < be a party to the discussions
of passenger Interests In tha west or to
these of th'o advisability of reorganizing tbo
nssoclatlon. But In the present conference
It has been represented all the time. So far
It has given no indication of Us Intentions ,
tout Its representation at the meeting is
counted for much and is looked upon as a
result of the action of President Burt In
consenting to bo present at the meeting of
beads of western roads In Chicago the other
tiny , at which the Immigrant clearing house
question was tnkcu up.
From all that can bo learned no agreement
satisfactory to nil the roads represented has
yet been drawn up. Olio has been consid
ered , but certain sections have been found
to bo objectionable. The meeting will ad
journ this week ,

DR , JEKYLL AND MR , HYDE

Undi'iArreM. .
An Interesting modern Dr. Jekyll nnd Mr.
Hyde career wns brought to nn ignominious
end Thursday afternoon when Detectives
Keysor and Sullivan placed J nines Berger
under arrest for grand larceny.
As Dr. Jekyll , Berger was an ofllco nsslst-
ant In the employ of H. B. Wilson , M. D. .
1106 South Tenth street. His duties were
not arduous nor exalted ; ho had only to
clean up the ofllco nnd wait on the door.
As Mr. Hyde , Berger posed as Dr. Wil
son's confidential clerk. He drove the doc
tor's fast horses , went to the doctor's friends
nnd borrowed money , asserting that his em
ployer sent him , and then ho had parties of
his own wayward companions visit him at
the doctor's home. There they held high
carnival with things to eat and drink , and
when the companions departed In the small
hours of the morning their pockets bulged
with the doctor's personal property. All
these things happened while Dr. Wilson was
out of the city on a vUlt. I/ast week ho re
turned and the orgies ceased. So did Bor-
ger's term of service In the ofilce.
Dr. Wilson began to miss things nnd finally
suspecting bis former clerk he bad detectives
detailed to search for the stolen articles ,
some of which were recovered. The sequel
was Borger's arrest for grand larceny.
Berger pleaded not guilty In police court
Friday. Ills examination was set for May
13. Ho is accused of taking an assortment
of clothing valued nt nbout $190.

Central Labor Union.
Attendance nt the meeting of the Central
Labor union last evening in Labor temple
wns unusually light , owing to the unpleasant
weather , and very llttlo business of impor
tance was transacted. The presiding ofilcer
was W. H. Bell.
A motion was offered and passed authoriz
ing the appointment of n committee to ar
range the exchange of fraternal1 delegates
between the central unions of this city nnd
South Omaha. Those who were chosen to
servo were J. B. Shupp , George J , Klcffner
and J. H. Ryan.
A proposed change ot the constitution was
announced providing that the day of meet
ing bo changed to Sunday. The alteration
will bo voted upon at the next meeting.
The secretary was instructed to request
Mayor Moores to ask business men to close
the doors of their stores Memorial day.
The committee on the labor directory was
Instructed to annul the contract with the
publisher of the directory , for the reason
that the tlmo had run out.
Dent's Toothache Gum Is sold everywhere

Only T o AVnllc Out.
The report that n strike had been declared
among the worklngmcn on tha exposition
grounds is not as serious ns It indicates
upon Its surface. Rumor had It that nil
the union labor on the grounds went out
on the strike , nnd while this Is largely true ,
the sarlousnefs of the situation Is abated
by the fact that only two men walked out.
These were cfectrlcnl workers employed by
Electrical Superintendent Hustln. This Is
the result of a difficulty which has been on
for some time. Mr. Hustln has persistently
declined to discharge non-union men in his
employ , and the matter was carried to the
exposition executive committee. The com
mittee hns tried to compromise the matter
and went even so far as to pass a resolution
directing that In the future none hut union
laborers shall be employed on the grounds.
This , however , did not cover the small force
of men who have been working for some
time and do not belong to unions. This
wns not satisfactory to the unions.
A miiiiiju'rniciit * .
The peat sale for MansPeld will bo enor
mous. All day yesterday and nil through the
weary hours of last night stood hundreds
f men nnd boys In fine In Boyd's lobby nnd
partly out doors some of them were , nnd
Some were entirely BO In the heavy rain.
This line will bo maintained , with nil tbo
attendant discomforts , until the box office
Is opened this morning at. 9 o'clock. There
were scores nnd scores In that line who
had not tasted n meal for twcrvo hours. The
crowd began to cluster nbout the box as
early as 11 o'clock yesterday morning. U
wns n rnco to the window between the
A. D. T. boyw nnd the 0. M. E. company.
Frank Baker lead the race for the 0. M. Es.
nnd secured a place nt the window Just .is
the A. D. T.s' leader bounded through the
door. Then ensued a struggle between the
two for the right of lino. Baker , with his
wedge behind him , maintained his place nnd
held It with his supporters. After these
two factions were straightened out a most
motley crowd filed In behind them nnd after
some struggling fell Into place. At midnight
the line had extended out Into the street ,
where Its members , with turned up colr.irn ,
stood and took the rain and fatigue like
veteran soldiers.
The very largo number of applications for
tickets show that the women and children
nro taking an unusual Interest In the matl-
ni'o performance at the Orpheutn this after
noon. This Is largely due to the fact that
Manager Uoscnthal's Tittle proteges , Frances
McMlllcn nnd Mnrgnrct Stcphnn , the two
pretty nnd talented children from the Madi
son Avenue school , Council Bluffs , nre on
the bill. Thcso charming tots sing nnd
dnnco themselves Into the hearts of all nnd
compare favorably with many of the most
famous professionals. Billy Clifford nnd
Maud Hiith nro the bright particular stars
of the show and present n sketch which ro-
surts In hilarity from beginning to end. Fred
Nlblo , the splendid story-teller ; Bronson nnd
Scrvls , In an up-to-date specialty ; the gifted
Lo Monts , and Gardner nnd Gllmore nro nil
cFovor nnd Irresistibly entertaining. The
last performance of this most successful bill
will be given at 8:15 : tonight.
The regular Saturday mntluco will be
given at the Trocadero this afternoon with
all the pleasant features that go with it.
Women and children are Invited to attend ,
as special features will be presented for their
edification. Llttlo Vunltn , one of the clever
est child performers In the work , will pre
sent her pretty songs nnd dances for the
Ultra ones and llttlo Ben Mowalt will show
his talents as a fancy club swinger. If the
day bo pleasant the children have the
flower-laden garden to romp in during inter
missions. Tonight will bo the last oppor
tunity to sea this week's very strong bill
aud It has been the unanimous voice of the
people all week that it is worth seeing.
Next week Carl Smith , who , ns leading man
with that popular organization , the Wood
ward Stock company , was so popular hero
last summer , win present the comedietta ,
"The Hypnotist , " assisted by Beatrice Lelb ,
late leading woman with the Woodward
company nt Kansas City , nnd her sister.
Both nro tnlented women. Fllson and Erral ,
the leading exponents of farce comedy on
the vaudeville stage , will bo seen in the
funny sketch , "A Tip on the Derby. "
"Hob Hoy" will be presented by the Bos-
tonlans on their opening night at Boyd's
next Thursday. This opera needs no oecond
Introduction to amusement-goers. It has
long since reached its 3,000th performance
by this popular light opera company and it
has been voted by critics to be ono of the
best examples of native composition. "Rob
Roy" was produced some yenrs ago nnd hns
been played the length and breadth of the
rand ever since. Some years ago , when the
Bostonlans made a tour of the northwest ,
"Rob Roy" was rendered here , and Judging
from the many Inquiries already made , it
will find as many partisans as oven Brim
ful of engaging ballads and bright melodies ,
it is sufficient to say it will have a warm
welcome. Such favorites as Barnabee , MacDonald -
Donald , Jessie Bartlett Davis , Helen Bert
ram and others lead the company. On Fri
day night "Tho Serenade" will bo given
nnd nlso at the Saturday matinee. Saturday
night "Robin Hood" will bo sung.

"It Is nothing but n , downright mean
trick. "
That Is the unanimous verdict of the
girls with the exception of some half-score ,
who help to make up the graduating class
of the Omaha High school on the election
of Fre-1 Sweelcy to the class presidency to
succeed President Lawrence Underwood , re
signed. The senior boys , on the other hand ,
think their stolen march was the neatest
piece of political strategy ever worked la
the old school , famous for Its class lights.
Student politics , -which were stirred to
tholr deptlm by the stormy " 09 class meeting
Wednesday , culminated In a suddenly called
mooting Friday afternoon. All the boys'
candidates nnd their adherents were plainly
In on the deal , while nothing but nn
eleventh-hour noticewns given to the fair
opponents , whoso forces had scattered homo
nnd these remaining refused even to lend
countenance by tholr presenceto the snap
convention.
As a consequence only forty-thrco seniors
were drummed up , hut this was Just three
moro than the necessary quorum and three
was as good ns thirty for the purpose. Presi
dent Underwood's delayed resignation was
promptly forthcoming. On ballot for his
successor Fred Sweeley wns elected by
twonty-nlno votes , the other votes being di
vided between Sherman Smith nnd Newton
Buttlcy. Not n girl received ft single vote.
After performing thta coup Uio meeting
mndo seine minor changes In the- constitu
tion nnd adjourned.
What the glrlo who constitute an almost
two-thirds majority ot the class will do has
not yet been disclosed. They are mad
though , and they don't care who knows It.
The teachers of the High school have re
fused to Interfere , on the ground that the
controversy Is n purely class matter.
Follow the crowd to Hoyden's and you
will find the bargains.

WG Don't Talk Much !
We JJo Not IIcivo To !
The Baldwin piano talks for Itself. What Is better still , It
makes friends that do the talking for us.
Every ono who sees the Baldwin piano tolls every ono they
know what n wonderful piano It is. A piano different to nny
other they have over seen. They tell about the magnificently
handsome case designs. The beautiful , rich mellow tonca , The
exquisite touch. Then they tell about the great advantage to bo
derived by purchasing the best piano , direct from the factory ,
saving money and securing liberal terms. That Is tbo reason wo
do not talk much and "always look pleasant. " That Is the
reason the now piano store Is selling so many pianos The
"Lucky Baldwin. "
