II. Comstock, In which Union Pacific officials are particularly Interested because of an ex haustive article on the "Union Pacific Club on Wheels," prepared by Alfred Dnrlow of tbo passenger department. The book con tains a rostor of ofllcors and members of the clubs of Omahn, Including tho Commer- lal, Klks, Metropolitan, Omaha, Country, Turn-Verotn Wheel and Whist clubs. The passenger department of the Union Pacific will send out a large number of copies of tho book. The vanguard of the sixty now engines ordored by tho Union Pnclllc last March ar rived In Omaha yesterday. There are two of them and they have been tho object of much Interested curiosity to englno men and op erating officials. A largo forco of maohln lstn has been employed getting them In nhape for ncrvtco and they will be given a trial tcit tomorrow. Tho onglnes aro a now type, known as the foilr-cyltador compound consolidated. They aro manufactured by tbo Daldwln Locomo tive works and'prototypes In use on eastern roads liavo given such great satisfaction that r.n order for sixty of them was made by the Union raclflc. It Is Intended to uso them exclusively on tho mountain districts of the Union Pacific in Wyoming between Lnramlo nnd Evanston. They will replace the en gines of tho 1700 class now used on tho "Wyoming division nnd theso will he brought to the Nebraska division for freight service. Tho engine are numbered 1623 and 1621. Two of tbo four cylinders are high pressure nnd tho other two low pressure. Tho high prcesuro cylinders aro fifteen and one-halt Inches In diameter, the low pressure cylln dors twenty-six Inches In dlamoter. Doth havo a thirty-inch stroke. Tho driving wheels aro fifty-seven inches In diameter nd support a weight of 100,000 pounds. Tho weight of the engine Is 1S0.000 pounds: tank 105,000 pounds: the total weight of engine and tank, ready for service, being 285,000 pounds. Tho tank has u capacity of 5,000 gallons of water and nlxteen tons of coal, Tho working boiler preisuro Is 200 pounds of steam to tho squaro Inch. There are a total of 300 boiler tubes, each two Inches In diameter and thirteen feet nix Inches In length. Tho builders of these compound consoli dated cnglnen claim for their use a great FRvlug of fuel. They aro designed for heavy freight servlco In mountainous districts and for ttis reason are peculiarly adapted for tho servlco which tho Union Pacific Intends for them. The chief distinction between tho new tyro represented by theso compound consol ldatcd engines and the locomotives now In use by tho Union Pacific is that tho now ones havo four cylinder, double tho number pos tered by tho old ones. In theso tho steam goes from tho high to the low pressure cyl lndere, thus providing an economy of powor as well as greatly Increasing the capacity of the steam pressuro utlllred, In all of the engines now used by tho Union Pacific the eteam Is utilized In but one pair of cylinders those having the high pressure, and tho ad dltlon of thoo having tho low pressure malting poslblo virtually doublo service for tho steam employed, appeals to practical en etna men as an Invention promising wholly satisfactory results, Officials of tho Union Pacific operating do paftment expect tho order for these now en filnca to bo llllcd at tho rate of two per week. Tho recond two aro now on the way As soon as each order Is received and the cnglnrv made ready for servlco they will ho transferred to the Wyoming division, until nil of tho freight engines used between lvAramlo and Kvanston aro of tho new typo, Iliillwny .otrn niiil I'frniuiiilN.

This carnival will bo held ns an adjunct to the u.iual annual parades nnd bids fair to ecllpso those stellar events in brilliancy nnd sensational Interest, reviving ns It will many of tho animated scenes, ex periences and attractions that made tho midway of tbo Transmlsslsslppl exposition memorable. Tho resources of tbo Knights of Ak-Sar-Den will bo taxed to make It the most unique nnd novel exhibition ever given nnywhoro, surpassing in many respects tho midways of both expositions. Every citizen of Omaha will lend his hearty co-oporatlon to that end. Tho scene of tho Orlentnl carnival will bo the vacant block bounded by Eighteenth nnd Nineteenth Btreets east nnd west nnd by Douglas and Dodge otrccts north nnd south. It will overflow Into tho streets and vacant spaces In tho territory reaching to Nineteenth street on tho west nnd Farnam streot on tho south. Tho Ak-Sar-ltcn com mlttco will erect throughout this territory substantial booths with waterproof roofs and adequate floors for exhibitors nnd ap plications aro now rolling In for space for commercial and manufacturing exhibits Tho booths will ho ten feot high and ten feet deep nnd will bo gaily decorated for tho carnival. Many flno exhibits, wherein Omaha's manufacturing enterprises will ex empllfy tho active workings of their cstab llshmcnts, nre promised. Clown nml (iundy lloolli. Drag nets aro out for the very cleanest nnd moHt captivating amusement features. There will bo a daylight parade of bands, lloate, comedy and Industrial features, and tho funnleat end most entertaining vaude ville attractions will be given on platforms eroded In the open streets, without money or price. Clowns will preambulate the carnival preulncts at will and dog and pony ahowH will be everywhere. Free street Bhows will bo given every hour In different sections of tbo carnival grounds, and each day will bring forth Kb special attractions of absorbing Interest, which will bo given In the main arena In tho center of tho now vacant square. The Oriental' carnival mid way, with' Its wlerd and brilliant nccountre menls, lis charms and mysteries, grotesque people and rcnoundlng bally-hoos will ho a distinctive feature of the carnival, and con cfBslons are now being sold to promoters of many sterling attractions Cure Is being taken to exclude anything that might prove repulsive to tbo most ticnsltlvo vloltor. This carnival will be morcly an adjunct to tho annual purades, which will he grander In their elcctrlo novelties and brilliancy this year than ever before Omaha haB outdone nil other pIIUh In Its electrical paradrn and will continue to lead the demon Htratloiifl In rarnival cities. The Oriental and Industrial Carnival of thin year Is a concession to the super-critical patrons and promoters, who havo demanded something in tho way of an attraction in addition to the parades. It has never been cuatomary to annouuee the character of tbo grand pa rades in advance, nnd until they burst Into view the public has been permitted to spec ulate upon the nature of the demonstration promised them. This year, however, the official program of the purudes will appear In The Illustrated Deo a week In udvance of tho opening demonstration. The carnival grounds will be adequately policed and will be supplied with Are pattol and emergency hospital, whllo toilet and re tiring rooms for women and children will be maintained. The grounds are convenient to all tho car lines, and It Is anticipated that the attractions oi the carnival and the ever hrllllant nnd costly Ak-Sar-Ilen parades will bo witnessed by not lets than 500.000 people.

Tho now Gtenson & Halley aerial truck recently purchused for Hook and Ladder company No. 1 was given Its first tefit at tho city hall yesterdny. Ladders were raised to the top of the city building and tho new truck worked to tho entlro satisfac tion of Chief Kcdell. It carries 315 feet of ladder, or 145 moro than tho old truck, nnd has an extension ladder that reaches to a height of eighty-five feet. Although tho now truck carries such a great length of ladder, It Is equipped with roller licarlngH and can bo hauled with less power than tho old truck. Tho ladders nre raised with sprocket gear, Blmllar to bl cyclo gear, nnd dirt and dust hna no effect on the gearing, as Ih the caso with the old fashioned screw gear formerly used on trucks. In raising ladders the power on this machine ie applied to the center of the ladder b means of loverngo arm, which reduce tho amount of power necessary to ralso ladders and Increase the speed greatly. Tho cost ,of tho now truck was $3,SB5. Hcsides the Clghty-ltve-foot ladder, It car ries a sixty-foot loddor nnd another fifty feet In length. Four men can raise ladders on tho truck In caso no moro firemen are available, and with practice Chief Itodcll expects to bo ablo to ralso the long ladder to Its full height In ono minute, them to do the work In addition to their roitulnr school work.

Officer Dan Daldwln has bought a now pair of green knickerbockers and a pair of tan cycling shoes that button clear down to tho Ingrowing toenail. Ho has discarded his helmcnt for a little fried-egg Jockey cap, because tho latter offers less resistance to tho wind, and hereafter any horse-fancier who essays to speed his animal on the Doulcvard, or any ono making an auto mobllious attempt to lower tho record on that poulticed avenuo, will be promptly overtaken and mercilessly pinched. This 'Is In accordance with an order Just Issued by Chief df Police Donahue. He says scorching Is becoming altogether too com mon on the boulevard, and that every- flno evening between 7 30 nnd 10 o'clock ,the driveway Is perverted into a racecourse. It Is full durins those hours, ho says, of wild-eyed tandems and fool-hardy lovers of horseflesh, who whoop 'or up and seek to nnnlhllato space and anything else that may bo In their way. At such times tho locality Is about as salutary as a Komati arena during a chariot event. And out of all the forco Dan naldwln, tho Snndow, has been rhosen to nbato the nuisance. There aro various reasons for this. In tho first place, Dan Is among the few hluecoats who nro broken to bicycle clothes. And then, ho rides a 1000 model geared up to 120, so that the tondereet caress of tho pedals Is like dallying with tho hair trigger of a cannon. It is understood that Sergeant Dehout volunteered for this service provided thoy would furnish him a bicycle with three wheels, His application was placed on flic.
