SWITCHING CREW KEPT BUSY
Cnnplc of Acclilciitn In tlic llnllroiul
Ynrilo Miikr IlimlncMK for tlie
Wrecker.
The wrecking crew of the Union Pacific
bad all kinds of work to keep them busy
Sunday. In the morning there was a col-
lUlon between a switch engine and an
empty box car near the smelter , and the
car suffered to a considerable extent In the
melee. The crew had Just finished clearing
up the dolirls and was returning to the
upper end of the yards when It encountered
a trio of grain cars which had gotten away
from the switching crow at Shceley station.
The brakes , It seemed , had not been prop
erly sot and the cars started off down the
Incline toward the union depot at an alarmIng -
Ing rate , completely battling the switching
crew In their attempt to catch up with the
runaways. The wrecking train saw the
runaway cam approaching and started to
load off In advance , but the rapidly approaching
preaching cars had worked up such a mo
mentum In their mad race down the grade
from Shceley station that the wrecking train
didn't got away In time , nnd there was a col
lision. Ono of the cars , loaded with rails ,
left the track and found a resting place on
top of a switchman's shanty , near Four
teenth street. The shanty was demolished
beyond recognition and rails wprn scattered
promiscuously around the adjacent territory.
Between Eleventh and Twelfth streets the
remaining runaway cars , loaded with grain ,
left the track and struck the earth with a
velocity that caused the cars to explode with
a report that was startling. Along the
tracks , whore the cars struck the earth , the
uppenrance of the scattered corn suggested
a granary. The wrecking trains , which had
left the runaways In the roar before they
Jumped the track , soon backed up to the
scene of the disaster and straightened up
the mess so that the tracks could be used
( or regular traffic.
Omlllill Itnlll-onil Mrii Promoted.
H. W. Stoutenborough , for several months

BANK CANNOT STAMP CHECKS
. \Ritlnnt the I.ixir for Any Our lint the
Driivrer or u Collector of Ilcv-
CIIIIP to Do So.
Internal Revenue Collector Houtz has re
ceived a ruling from the commissioner of
Internal revenue at Washington on a very
Important point. Its effect la to prohibit
banks from stamping chocks which through
carelessness have been left unstamped by
the drawers. Heretofore it has been the
custom with some banks to accommodate
forgetful or negligent patrons by putting
stamps on their checks and canceling them.
If continued this practice will get the banks
Into serious trouble. The ruling just re
ceived , which Is an authoritative and final
etormlnatlon of tbo point , roads In part
s follows ;
"You are advised that banks must not affix
tamps to unstamped checks presented and
nust return to the drawer any unstamped
hocks presented for payment. You are dl-
cctod to notify the banks that are guilty
f the practice herein described that if It Is
ot Immediately discontinued they will be
cportcd to the United States district attor-
oy for prosecution. "
The matter was called to the attention of
lie authorities by a collector In Ohio , In
vhlch state a bank was seeking to take
> us I ness away from its rivals by offering
o stamp the checks of Its customers.
When a document coming within the
revisions of the stamp law has no stamp
nd cannot be returned to the person who
xecuted It the law requires that It be sent
o the internal revenue collector to have the
efect cured. No one else may do It legally.
Collector Houtz says that upward of fifty
ocuments como to his office dally to have
tamps affixed. When any of these run a
ear from the date of their execution wlth-
mt having the stamp affixed a penalty of $5
s Imposed on the drawer , besides the value
f the stamp.
GARBAGE MAN DISAPPEARS
Max Itconc LcnvcH IIIx Old Ilnnntn nnd
Oniinot lip Found by
HIM FrlrmU.
After having eked out an existence on
he banks of tbo Missouri river for the
ast eight years , Max Reese has suddenly
Isappeared , and not a trace of his where-
bouts has been found. He was 60 years
of age , and friends believe he tumbled Into
ho river sometime during Saturday night.
Reese was In the habit of working on the
Ivor bank In the vicinity of the old dog
pound at the foot of Jones street. He dls-
loscd of garbage for the people who hauled
t down there , making enough to live on ,
ind that -was about all. Ho built a small
mt there and practically lived in It during
ho last few years , his wlfo having "been sent
o the hospital for the Insane In Lincoln.
le has a son -working In South Omaha , and
a daughter in St. Louis.
Reese was seen at his hut Saturday night.
He was not a hard drinker , contenting him
self with an occasional can of beer. Sunday
morning , when Mr. McDonald went down
here he failed to see Reese anywhere , and
nothing has been learned of him since. His
ork was found near the river bank between
loward and Jackson streets. The missing
man took his meals at a boarding house
under the Sixteenth street viaduct. He had
not been to the house during the last two
vcoks , the boarding boss sending his meals
o him at the river. He seemed In good
spirits always , and , therefore , his friends
are unable to account for his disappearance.
A Ciooil CoiiKh Medicine for Children.
"I have no hesitancy In recommending
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy , " says F. P.
hloran. a well known and popular baker of
r'etersburK. Va. "Wo have civnn It in nnr
children when troubled with bad coughs ,
also whooping cough , nnd It hns always
given perfect satisfaction. It was recom
mended to mo by a druggist as the beat
cough medicine for children , as It con
tained no opium or other harmful drugs. "
Announcement * .
In view ot the fact that this le to bo the
last week of high-class vaudeville entertain
ment at the Trocadoro and the last that wlir
bo seen In Omaha for some time at least ,
overs of this form of amusement should not
fall to see this diversified bill. It Is an
evenly balanced one and entertaining from
flrst to last. Williams and Stone's ragtime
singing and talking are something decidedly
now nnd novel and win for them unstinted
nppfause. They are both exceedingly clever
dancers. Scott and Wilson do a refined
comedy acrobatic act In which some very
dlfllcult feats are performed. Chinese John
nie Winiams exposes a number of slelcht of
hand tricks. Demonlo's contortion act Is
an Innovation In this line of work. Mr. and
Mrs. Hughes offer an entertaining llttlo
comedy and Le Clalr and Hayes do a sing
ing and dancing turn that IB good. Their
scarlet plckannlnles , which they introduce In
this net , make a big hit with the ragtime
dancing. Prof. Lorenzo's operatic orchestra
renders some classical numbers during this
week that are bound to please all lovers of
music.

The first accident of nny consequence
which has happened on the exposition
grounds since the opening occurred shortly
after noon yesterday , when Jcnnlo Hoover ,
the 15-year-old daughter of B. B. Hoover , en
gineer at the scenic railway on the Midway ,
was drowned. The girl , In company with a
younger brother , went Into the water which
forms a little lake near the Battle of Manila
concession on the west sldo of Midway.
They were disporting themselves In the min
iature lake when Jennie suddenly cried out
In alarm , discovering that the lake bottom
was an Incline and that eho had proceeded
beyond the shallow places. As soon as his
sister gave her first agonizing cry the
brother and another companion rushed away
In searnh of aid , J , L. Gross was the first
man they encountered , and he went Immedi
ately to the water and rescued the body of
the child. It wan taken to the hospital with
out delay , but the efforts of the physicians
were unavailing , nnd after every possible
motho.l to rcsuiscMnta the child had been
employed without tesult ehe wait ] > ronounccd
dead.
Shortly after 3 o'clock a hurry call was
sent Into the emergency hospital from the
Filipino village. The ambulance was sent
out , accompanied - a doctor , who found
John Mcldrurn suffering from the effects of
a stroke of apoplexy. Ho was taken to the
hospital , where ho died n few minutes later.
Meldrum was about G5 years of ago and had
resided In Omaha during the past twenty
years. Recently he has been employed at
the Filipino village cementing the lake In
side the grounds. Yesterday ho returned to
get his tools. He had driven his team Insldo
.ho grounds and was in the act of loading
a box Into the wagon. Just as ho got It upon
ho vehicle he staggered and fell. After ly-
ng upon the ground for a moment he arose
and took hold of another box and Just as he
was in the act of raising It ho foil. Parties
saw him fall and running to him discovered
that ho was unconscious. They called the
ambulance and ho was taken to the hospital ,
but before reaching there life was extinct.

SHEEPMEN BUYING LAND
AVrmlrrn l'looknin tcT Itcnllrr tlip
Ailinntnttr of Controlling Thrlr
OHM Itniiur ,
C. E. Wantland of Denver , general western
ngent of the Union Pacific land department , i
Is In the city to confer with the general
land commissioner regarding two or three
big land deals which ho has under way. |
Some time ago when the Department of the
Interior Issued orders closing the Ulntnh
( Wyoming ) forest reserve from furtfatr use
as grazing land for the sheepmen In that re
gion , the owners of large flocks of sheep
made a wlM rush to buy up all the vacant
land that they could procure. Since that
tlmo the Department of the Interior has |
somewhat modified its original order , and
permission Is granted a limited number ot
sheep to enter the reserve for feeding pur
poses. This , however , has not affected the
sale of land to the sheepmen as would nat
urally bo expected , Regarding this phase
of the question , Mr. Wautland , who Is well
Informed on the existing conditions in that
region , stated :
"Owners of the big sheep outfits In Wyom
ing , Utah and Colorado are buying up land
because the expcrlonco of ten years has
taught them the value of owning their own
range , and It has been conclusively proven
that it Is a money-making proposition. The
lands most in demand are those owned by
the railroad company , which are available
for purchase , and the leasing of state lands.
The states of Wyoming nnd Utah now have
applications for leases aggregating moro thnn
two million acres In excess of that which
they are able to furnish. The advantage de
rived by the sheepmen In owning their own
range Is that they know Just how much feed
they cnn depend upon , consequently they
can guage the extent of their flocks accord
ingly. And then the saving from loss of
sheep Is moro than compensation for the
outlay in the land , In the course of time. "
