Now work la wider war which aooa will
put one-half of tba Omaha Grain Terml
nala company tract In condition (or ralla
and buildings. Borne si weeks ago the
Incorporators of the terminal company,
through . President Stlckney and others tn
St. Paul, closed a contract for the grading
of the tract with a firm located In the
Twin cities. Immediately a considerable
force of men was put , to work on the
around and It is thought by local members
of the company the work will be finished
In about one week.
The district to be graded under this con
tract will include about one-half-of the
acreage - bought for the terminals. The
work was begun at Twenty-ninth street
and haa been carried weatward almoat to
the Boulevard viaduct. Just north of South
Omaha. Work Is on the central portion
of the ground bought last year which runs
from the Vicinity of Twenty-third street
to the South Omaha line, and Includes a
portion of Sheelytown.
, The houses that stood on the tract were
old at auction and removed by the pur
chasers. This left a large piece of uneven
land, running generally along the valley.
The grading work now being done Is cut
ting down the higher parts of the elopes
and filling the lower. When It Is finished
i this part of the terminal- will be ready
for the tracks. ,.- .
Good for Elevators or Mills. ,
This land will form excellent foundation
pace for any elevators and mills which
may be erected, and the filled land will be
sufficiently solid as soon as graded for the
tracks.. The Incorporators are not willing
to say whether or not allotments have
been made to private companies or
whether Mr. Stlckney will proceed as soon
as the ground is ready to put up his long
promised elevator. The Intention of the
Terminal company was to secure land
where any person or company desiring to
put up buildings for the grain business
could be accommodated.
It was thought at the time the Union
Pacific and Burlington railroads might re
fuse trackage for elevators on the Great
Western and other lines, and Mr. Stlckney
took this move, it Is said, to kill the possi
ble' excuse that ground was not obtainable.
Plans for grading the terminal tract were
drawn in St. Paul last winter, and the
work would have been begun In the spring,
but the Great -Western people were so busy
with the grading of .freight yards and ter
minal tracks south of Leavenworth street
that the other work was not attempted un
til this fall. The . greater part of the
flUlng-ln work for the freight houses and
witches is now done, and tt is said the
terminals for grain companies Vill receive
undivided attention.

t
lag to Her.
She was stylishly aressed, beautiful of
face and figure and she wore an expression
of indifference. When she passed the Mis
souri Pad 11c office she heard someone tap
at the window and started back. She saw
only an artist who was working away on
one of the new window signs. Pussled,
he started to continue her Journey. Again
someone tapped at the window and again
she. hesitated and turned - back. No one
was there but the artist and she started to
move away, when the same tapping oc
curred. This time she turned with scarlet
face and flushed eyes. It was evident
something was going to happen. She made
a move for the office, but as she did so the
tapping was renewed by the artist on tho
inside. Then the truth dawned on the at
tractive and stylish stranger. She smiled,
blushed and went on her way.
Tho trouble was caused by the artist, who
was filling in the letters on the window and
giving them a frosty effect by tapping the
varnish with his brush. And there were
rudo men In the vicinity who actually
seemed to enjoy the discomfiture and the
confusion of the pretty, blushing little
woman, who at first supposed the tapping
was for her especial benefit, as it happened
at very short Intervals.

TOURISTS GET WRONG GRIPS
Haa Take Winu'i Satchel and She

Knewlng It.
It la the habit of O. D. Greenwood of
Viola, 111., to amok, a pip on the train
when ha travels about the country.. He
atarted for tho east yesterday, but In
stead of whlllng away the time with an oc
casional puff from his favorite brlarwood,
It Is very likely he spent most of. the time
swearing at his carelessness.
Mr. Greenwood oocupled one of the
benches In the Union station this morning.
Beside him sat a woman. Mr. Greenwood
had a small grip. So did the woman. Mr.
Greenwood put his grip on the bench, where
he could keep his eye on It. The woman
did likewise with her satchel.
When the train pulled Into the depot
Mr. Oreenwocd picked up his grip and
started for the door. At least he thought
ha took his grip. He certainly left one of
the traveling bags lying on the seat, and
the woman thought It belcnged to her.
Bhe gave the matter no further thought
and a few minutes after the train left she
went y the "ladles' " waiting room to use
her curling Iron, which was In the bottom
of the grip. When she opened ' It she
almost fainted. . Instead of the feminine
articles she had put Into the bag before
she left the house she found a brlarwood
pipe, a pair of soiled cuffs, a time table,
some chewing tobacco, a hairbrush and a
shaving set
Wheu Mr. Oreenwood reached the smok
ing car It may be Imagined what ha found.
It may also be Imagined what he said. '
It was evident the grips had been ex
changed when the two separated at the
bench, and as soon as the woman mads
her horrible discovery the wires were kept
hot in order to bead off Mr. Greenwood
and the grip. The woman left for Casper,
Wyo., and her grip and chattels will be
sent there. .
