I)y October 1 a complete system of elec
tric switching mil signaling, operated from
two towers, will bo In operation at the
Union station railroad yards. All tho track
age or all tho roads entering that station
will he controlled thereafter by this scheme,
n recent ono in railway engineering.
Work bus already begun. Tho foundations
fortho towor at tho west end of tho yards
are In, and the superstructure will follow
shortly. Tho electrical work and signal
fitting In tho yards aro also progressing
rapidly.
Hoth towers will be to tho north of the
main tracks and ton feet from them. The
west tower Is to be located about sovonty
live fo enst of Thirteenth Btreet, tho east
ono about tho samo distance east of Sixth
street and probably three blocks from tho
brldgo across tho Missouri river.
Tho towers will bo twenty-five feet high,
twenty-two feet long and thirteen feot wide.
Tho operating Iloor will be twelve feet
above- tho tracks. Hero a vast system of
levers will control all tho switches and
Hlgnals. Ono man will opcrato in each
towor. Kach will have seventy-five levers
to handle. Tho operators will probably
work twelvo-hour shifts.
(,'li'Hr ItiiiuUtii)' Alicnil.
Theso men will control seventy-ono
switches and seventy-six slgnal In thoso
yards. All movements of trains or any
rolling stock equipment will be subject to
their enro and manipulation.
Tho work will require not only a thor
ough knowledge (if tialn movements, but
also n cool head and steady noro on tho
part of tho operator. What has always
herctoforo been done by hand nnd Is utlll
done that way will then bo accomplished
by electricity, man merely pulling or push
ing on n certain handle as ho sees a train
coming or receives notico In nny other
manner nf Its approach. Most times ho can
see It. When a dense fog or other circtim
stanco prevents this ho will bo apprised by
telephone.
Switched ami signals will bo operated nnd
lighted by electricity. Tho arrangement
will be such that tho route must always bo
set up with tho switches beforo tho signal
is given. Then tho act of giving tho signal
locks all tho switches. This Insures a safo
and certain bystcm, nnd tho ono In Omaha
will bo as Important nnd largo as nny In
tho west, controlling nn unusually extensive
trnckago and Interlocking.

Tho block system, n now and improved
method of signaling, is being established
by tho Union Pacific road throughout tho
extent of Its double trackage from Council
Illuffs to Gllmorc, ten miles southeast of
Ornahn on tho main line.
The work Is being done by contract, an
eastern linn having undnrtaken It. It will
bo completed by September 1 nnd tho Union
1'aclllc will then hava In operation, tho
latest approved Bchemo of slgnnllng for
keeping its trains spuced ulong the double
track at this, terminal.
This block Bjstom will manlpulato Itsolf
automatically, electricity being the agent.
Tho tnckngo for tho extent named, thir
teen miles of double or twenty-six of
single, is to be divided into sections rang
ing from half a mile to a mile and a half
In length. Theso aro tho blocks, so-called.
Trains on this doublo trackage, run right
handed entlroly nnd' tho disc signals will
bo placed along tho outside of each track,
thcro being a system for each. Tho signal
consists of a largo disc extending from a
support at tho top of tho post, and thoy
signal by position or cxposuro In tho day
time and by vnrl-colorcd lights at night.
Such n signal will bo placed at tho be
ginning of each block. If thero is a trnln
In tho next block tho signal at tho head of It
shows danger: it In tho next block but
one. It says, "Oo slow." Thus the drivor
of a train can ulwnys tell Just what Is In
front of him for two miles or more.
This result Is accomplished by electric
power and tho contnet of tho car wheels
does It, not tho weight. A hnndcar will
spring tho signal for n block. Tho elec
tric work Is rather complicated and the en
tire mechanism is placed out along tho
tracks nud In tho signals themselves.
Work on tho Union Pacific lino has pro
ceeded as far as tho insulation, on which
tho ftjrco of men which Is putting In tho
slgnnls Is now working.
Tho twenty-five milts, moro or less, of
track will bo divided Into twenty-four sec
tions or blocks. Thcro will bo fifty-two
disc signals In all.

"It Is Imposslblo to tell exactly what the
effect of formaline, prescrvnllno and other
formaldehyde preparation Is on tho human
system," said Dr. J. P. Ralph, assistant to
tho city health commissioner, in discussing
embalmed milk. "Tho action of such
preparations, even when used In very
small quantities, must be very dangerous.
Put a few drop of formaldehydo solution
In the palm of tho band and tho skin will
shrivel up wherever tho solution touches.
It seems to tan tho skin.
"If the action of formaldehydo Is eo
noticeable on tho palm of tho hand, where
the skin Is tough, its effect on the tender
membranes lining tho alimentary canal
must bo more pronounced. Physicians ills
agrco as to tho action of preserving fluids,
bnt practically all authorities concede that
harm is llnble to como from the Introduc
tion of such substances Into the system.
Somo physicians maintain that typhoid
fever Is frequently tracoablo to formalde
hydo and other preservatives used In food
stuffs." The city milk Inspector Is constantly re
ceiving complaints from people who sus
pect their milk dealers of using formaline,
but a chemical analysis of all samples se
cured has revealed preserving formallno In
the milk of only ono denier.

Omaha dealers In heavy hardware nnd

now in progress in tho steel mills of the
country, as thcro Is at this time no possi
bility of renewing stocks onco depleted and
tho mills will no longer receive orders for
delivery within any specified time.
Inquiry among tho wholesolo and larger
retail dealers shows that Omaha Is particu
larly fortunato In the matter of stocks of
steel, as all of the houses made heavy or
ders in tho spring which wero filled beforo
thcro was any talk of strike, but a few
orders of average size would plnco any of
the stocks In a position where thoy would
havo to bo replenished nnd unless tho strlko
is settled beforo that tlrao arrives it will
bo Impossible to renew tho stocks required
to crvo tho trado of the Omaha territory.
It Is understood that somo work in tho

SWEET CORN FOR THE HORSES
i
Market Rnnlenera Kcert Their Ilrnnta
of Burden on Luxuries and
Price Go Upivnrd.
Local vegetable markets are awaiting tho
result of tho rains which fell last weok.
There is no change In existing conditions,
but tho prospect Is brighter for many
vegetables.
Tomatoes aro going to bo scarce and
much higher by tho closo of the week, as
the early crop Is about exhausted and the
later ono Is not ready for the market.
Gardeners aro feeding sweot corn to their
horses in preference to buying old corn
at existing prices and this has a tendency
to keep the price of that article abovo
normal, wholesale, prices being from 6
cents to 10 cents per dozen.
The last of tho early wild plums will
bo sold this week and for ten days there
will bo little of this fruit on the market.
Thero Is a largo crop of tho later variety
In sight nnd prices will probnbly bo lower
than yet quoted.
On account of tho scarcity of homo grown
vegetables California fruit Is having' a
boom for tho season and tho sale In Omaha
this summer will exceed that of previous
seasons.

in cut for WorkliiK Clrls,
A homo for working glrl9, prices gauged
with reference to their wnges, surrounded
by educational nnd Christian environ
ments. This Is, in brief, tho most recent addition
to Omaha benevolent Institutions, nnd
thanks for Its Inception nnd consummation
aro duo to Rev. Campbell Fnlr, dean of
Trinity cathedral.
For several months Dean Fair has had
this project under contemplation. It was
no cusy undertaking nnd many difficulties
wero encountered from time to time, but
now It Is believed that all barriers havo
been removed and the now work will bo
in operation within a very short while
perhaps tho next two weeks.
Tho homo for working girls will be
located In tho building at Eighteenth nnd
St. Mary's nvcnuo, now occupied by tho
Child's Saving Institute, of which Rov. A.
W. Clark 13 superintendent. Superintend
ent Clark's Institute will bo removed to Its
now homo nt Eighteenth nnd Ohio streets
In n fow days and Dean Fair's enterprise
will then take possession of the building.
Somo llttlo tlmo will be required for
papering nnd other rcpalis, It being the
Idea to put tho plnco in excellent condi
tion. Ilronil Scope nf the Home,
Several other features of benevolent
work will bo conducted In conjunction with
tho home for girls and, taken In the ag
gregate, this promises to be a busy Insti
tution. Tho upper floors of tho building
will be arranged for sleeping rooms for
young women pntrons. A matron will bo
In charge and every effort w'lll bo made to
glvo nn nlr of home-llko freedom.
Particular attention Is called to tho fact
that tho young women living in this
homo will not bo branded as charity seek
ers; for, in fact, they nro required to pay n
stipulated price for tho accommodations
received, Howover, that prlco will bo
within their reach, and, In many ways they
will find the homo superior to such boarding
houses ns they could afford, so tho lend
ers of tho project say.
In this work Dean Fair Is supported by
numerous prominent citizens nnd tho now
Institution begins its career with every
Indication of filling a necessity that has
long existed In Omaha, where the fac
tories and workshops glvo employment to
so many girls of limited financial rp-

From away up in tho northwest como
reports which look like those sent out from
Omaha a week ago. At Lcwlston, Idaho,
thcro was a tcmporaturo of 104 degrees
Tuesday, at Boise City 102, tho same at
Pocatello and 100 degrees nt Grand Junc

vnlley tho weathor Is cooler, but over tho
