ECHOES OF THE ANTEROOM
SERGEANT HAYES EXEMPLAR
Former Trooper of I'ncle Sum a Dally
Example of NestneM of City
Police.
Just before the change of shifts occurred
at the police station Saturday noon the
sergeants and others were talking of the
good effects of stimulating personal prldd
In the rnnks of the patrolmen.
"In his personal appearance a patrolman
should, so far as possible, set an example.
He represents law and order and should be
orderly himself. Taken collectively, Omaha
has a reputation of having as neat a look
lng police force as any city of the size In
the country." remarked one of the ser
geants. .
"And there Is Sergeant Hayes," chimed
In another sergeant. "There Is a man who
has done more to maintain a high stand
ard In the personal appearance of the force
than any other sergeant we bare had. It
Just comes as second nature with the ser
geant. His long training as a cavalry
officer hns stood him In good stead on the
pollco force. On occasions he has talked
to his platoon on the subject of neatness
and has always strengthened his precepts
by Betting the example himself."
It Is a matter of fact that Sergeant Hayes
never allows a speck of dust to remain long
on his uniform, his shoes are always re
flective, his buttons bright and his face
smoothly shaven.

ENGINEER'S THONE SERVICE
Demands of Public llnslneaa Cause th?
Installation of a Better
Systran.
The demand for private and publlo Im
provements, the former often hinging upon
the latter, has caused too much business
for the telephone In the city engineer de
partment and permission has been given

plaints that persons having business with
the engineering department were unable
to get It over the telephone at any hour
during the day Is responsible for bringing
about the Improvement.
When councllmen found that It was about
as hurd to get the city engineer s number
as It. is to convince a western railway
manager that government control would
be a good thing lor the railroads, the sec
ond 'phone was authorised with hot speed.
Fish They Didn't fntrli.
William Mi'Kenna. John Carlton snd
Chris Eavers, the latter two Missouri Pa

other things at which they are more skill
ful than catching fish. They went fishing
a few days a;o out on the Platte river,
somewhere where the fish bite best, and
before starting assumed obligations for the
delivery of large quantities of fish to their
friends, chief among whom wa William
Richelieu, who was to get the lion's share
for "putting them onto" the good fishing
place. Hut when the fishermen returned
they had one fish between them At least
they had had It, but It "got away." They
said the river lowered perceptibly when
they drew It out.
