MILWAUKEE'S RICH COACH
New OTerlftnd Limited Observation Car
Pass. Throif h Omaha Tint Tin.
RESEMBLES REAL PALACE IN WHEELS
tiara A war with Barber bop on Fnet
t'aast Trala, Safcatltntlaa; Other
Coaaforta a ad Aerom-nodatloaa.
One of the richest coaches that haa
crossed the continent in recent year ar
rived In Omaha Monday morning over tha
(.Tifrairo, Milwaukee St St. Paul road and
went went with the Overland Limited.
This la the new com polite observation car
which la t be need on these trains.
With the adoption of this coach the ob-
servatlon car now uited on the Overland
will be discontinued. This also will do
away with the barber shop, which was
one of the features of the coach. The
Overland Limited Is made up of Union
Paciflc, . Northwestern and Milwaukee
coaches, but the Milwaukee cars are
hauled to Chicago from Omaha over the
Milwaukee's own tracks. For this reason
the Milwaukee through train has been
without an observation car after leaving
this city. In order to enable its passermers
to make the entire distance surrounded
with the same splendor and convenli nces
It was decided by the Milwaukee some
time ago to have Its own observation car
and the rolling palace which was hauled
Into the city on the Overland this morning
Is the result of the change.
Looking the entire length of the coach
the general appearance is cathedral-like
In its architectural beauty. There Is in
the rear an observation platform of marly
twice the dimensions of those at present
In. ie on the Overland. The platform Is
protected by a domed roof, which Is
brightly lighted with Incandescent lamps.
The observation parlor Is provided with
richly upholstered furniture. Ground glass
chandeliers hang from the celling and
there are lamps and electric buttons beside
every chair. Forward of the parlor is the
buffet and In front of this are the smoking
compartments. These are supplied with
elegant furniture upholstered In bufT-c loreJ
leather. There are stationary and movubla
writing desks of the most exquisite patte. n
and the smoking apartments are enclosed
by elegant glass partitions, so that the
view. Is not obstructed fey the alslts Bialned
glass windows enhance the interior effect
by day and add to the exterior splendor
of the car at night. Ornate mirrors are
supplied at convenient points of the car
and the women's compartment is supplied
with escritoires and permanent stationary
writing desks which are supplied with em
bossed stationery.
Silken tapestries, expensive Imported
woods, a network of pillars and other
architectural effects add to the sumptu
ousnesa of the Interior. The Union Pacltlo
is adopting the same style of car and
future Overland passengers will have the
same accommodations to the end of their
destination, whether they complete the
Journey from Omaha over the Northwest
era or the Milwaukee.
Rich Chinese Tea Merchant.
Among the passengers who occupied the
observation, coach of the Overland when
It arrived In the city from Chicago was
Toa Tun Min, a wealthy Chlneae tea mer
chant, who la making a tour of thla coun
try for the first time. Mr. Min waa gorge
ous in purple raiment and wore the usual
tassel which designates his financial stand
ing In the Orient Mr. Min arrived In New
Tork from Great Britain about a we?k ago
and when he reaches Canton he will have '
circled the world, completing a journey j
which has taken bout three months. He
expects to spend some time in Ban Fran- I
elaco, where the firm haa a branch house. I
The firm also has branch houses in London
and In other parts of Europe. Mr. Min Is
much Impressed with what he has seen of
America and spoke of It as a "much re
markable countlee." He was extremely
pleased with the deference that has been
shown him everywhere and says he In
tends, to make another trip aoon and spend
more time In America when he comes
gain.
Referring to the war, he said he thought
that it would prove very costly for both
sides and that Japan Is already staggered
by the expense of the war. He said Japan
Is surprised by the life and treasure that
It has cost up to the present time, a It
expected a shorter struggle. China, he
said, has had no Intention of taking aides
with Japan in the struggle. He thought
China cannot afford to do It for political
reasons and that the hope of Its Integrity,
no matter which way the fortunes of war
go. depends upon Its maintaining a per
fectly neutral attitude. He said that
Japan hoped to destroy Russia's fleet early
In the war and thus take Port Arthur,
but when It found Itself unable to do this
It realised that It had a long arid dogged
land struggle on hand. No one, he says,
but he who haa been at Port Arthur and
seen Its mllea and miles of costly defenses
can gain any conception of what It really
means to take the place.

.THIEVES OVERLOOK MONEY
Visit Heart's Store and Get Plunder,
, but Full to DtaeoTer Bora
Hidden Treaaarea.
, Henry P. Kleaer'a stationery and book
etore a4 1907 Farnam street was robbed of
foods and money aggregating about $100,
,as near as can now be estimated, Sunday
.night. The burglera got only II. SO In cash,
.the remainder of their boodle being in foun
tain pens of the finest make and probably
soma leather goods. Mr. Kieser is unable
to say Just how many fountain pens are
.missing, but one whole tray and several out
of other trays are gone, and it may be plac
ing the estimate too low to say that $100
will cover the loss. Burglar Insurance waa
not carried, so the loss is complete.
From the fact that more plunder was not
taken and that a considerable sum of
money hid In the cash register was not dls-
'eovered, together with other features of
the affair, Mr. Kieser Is convinced the work
waa done by crude and inexperienced hands.
ie had concealed a large aim of money in
the cush register and left only $1.60 in the
drawer open to view. Thla was taken, but
the other was not touclted. His safe was
opened and every envelope, no matter what
Its contents, was opened and examined. Ilia
offloe floor waa littered with these things.
. The case containing the fountain pens waa
well filled, but only one tray waa entirely
emptied and scattering pens picked from
other trays. He thinks a professional bur
glar, If he would have entered the store at
all, would have cleaned out all these pen,
taken all the valuable leather gooda on the
counters and got the money In the register.
The police have the case and It can be
said that' certain parties, not adults, are
under suspicion. Their movements are be
ins watched.
The thieves entered the store from the
rear, prying open with some metalio. bar,
evidently, a window, breaking the lock by
which It was secured. Alfred Ponaghue,
Jr.. the. florist, was aleeplng in his place of
business, the flrat door cast of Kieser' s, and
heard footstepa In the Kieser More early
Sunday night, but thought it was Mr.
Kieser or some of his clerks, never imag
ining for a minute a burglar would be bul.l
enough to perform his work at that hour of
the night and so did not get up. The Mid
land Glass Paint company, lSut Harney
street. Immediately oppoalte acroaa the
block and abutting on the aame alley with
the Kieser store, keeps a special night
watchman, but he saw nor heard nothing
of the thieves.
WOMAN LOSES TEETH IN FIGHT
Drops Her Masticators While Swap
ping Braaa Kaarkle Blows
with Another Woman.
"Drunk and disturbing the peace and
dignity of the community by fighting and
using loud and unusual noises was the
charge against Hattie Vert and Mollle
Wicks of i North Fourteenth street
when the women were arraigned before
Police Judge Berks. The combatants
were fined $10 and costs each for their little
outdoor specialty. The humorous part of
the engagement was the fact that the
women resorted to brans knuckles instead
of pulling each other's hair. When the
smoke had cleared away both of the
women's faces looked the worse for wear
and Mies Verl reported when she reached
police headquarters that she lost her false
teeth In the excitement. There Is some
difference of opinion Just what caused the
trouble. One report from the front says
one gave the other a recipe for removing
warts and the recipe failed to work as
claimed, but this report ia unconfirmed.
