Kclwcen tho hours of 11' o'clock and 2

world's champion typewriter operator, now
vlsltlnc In Omaha, will give a demonstra
tion of speed and accuracy In the Commer

tioned, representative business men of
Omaha throng tho club rooms dally, and as
every man of business Is more or less In
terested In fctenographlc work, It Is ex
pected that the appearance of Champion

record on which Blaladell won the cham
pionship In Now York during a contest
which was held October 27, was 109 words

record by writing 1"5 words from dictation
In one minute, and that without a single

If Postmarter Thomas wcie to paste all
of the frrak letters he receives Into a
crap bock, within tho coimo of a year or
so he would l ave a most Interesting collec
tion. Peiiiops the same may he true of
any ether postoffire, but ju-'t now the
Omaha offlco teems to ba deluged with
letters of peculiar angle.
U Is a rulo of Postmaster Thonms to
never make public tiie names of persons
who wrlto such letters. The signatures he
reunrds as confidential, but l.e sometimes
indulKos In discussion of the content".
The general presumption among a certain
class of people seems to be tliat the post
master Is a sort of x)oh bah who has
Jurisdiction over a wide range of city af
fairs, not only matters of a public nature,
hut the conduct aud habits of private In
dividuals as Well.
For Instunce, u U'uir woman has written
Mr. Thwnns announcing that her husband
Is In receipts of a "chain prayer" letter
from a woman In Omaha. She Is not sure,
hut she thinks she knows the name of tho
sender, and while she has no objection In
a general wy to tho contents of the prayer,
she does object to it being sent to her
husband, Iwuuse she looks upon it as an
entering wedge to further correspondence.
"Why can't she jUMt say her prayers,
anil cut out the writing?" the woman asks.
Mr. Thomas not being a prayer expert
i unablo to give t lie Information. Perhaps
it would do just as well to say the prayer
instead of writing It, but that is a matter
ovtr which the postmaster lias no Juris
diction. However, the woman evidently
thinks ho has power to net, for she con
cludes her letter with a command., "I want
I you to have this stopped at once."
Woman Wants llnaband.
I Another Woman fl om Alliance, Neb.,
i writ' s the postmaster aaklng him to in
form her if he knows of a middle aged
man, widower preferred, who would like to
take a wife with a sheep ranch thrown In
for good measure.
"I am a widow," she writes, 46 years old,
generally considered good looking, and as
my sheep ranch is too big a proposition
for me to manage, I have decided to take
a husband, if I can find a suitable gent,
and let him take charge of the sheep. I
am a good cook and I will feed the man
well three times a day. I am not seeking
a man with means. I have plenty of
money, and will pay railroad fare to Al
liance for the right man. All I want Is a
good, strong, husky man to handle the
pesky Bheep. I am so tired of sheep I
never want to taste lamb chops again. He
need not be an educated man I've got ed
ucation enough for both of us."
Once In a while there conies a letter of
more serious strain something to arouse
pity in tho heart of the reader. Mother
often write the postmaster in quest of in
formation concerning wandering sons, and
now and then a heart-broken wife asks
the postmaster to inform her If her missing
husband Is In Omaha. One woman even
went so far as to request the postmaster
to search the city for her husband, assum
ing that ho could bo Identified from a de
scription enclosed. Most of these absurd
favors are asked by people living In vil
lages, who do not take Into consideration
that the postmaster of .Omaha Is a bug)$
man and that however amiable nd phiU
nnthroplc he may be, he has no time or
sleuth work.
As a general rul, wherever possible, Mr,
Thomas grants requests, and every letter
of a respectable nature gets an answer.

14TH AND DODGE STREETS
This Man from Greece;
Speedy Action Taken in Federal
Court for Violating the Anti
Pass Law.
"Next time I get the railroad pnss. I
don't get him," said C.us Apotolos, In
mixed Creek and Fnulisli. as he ambled
out of Judge Munger'sy ourt room Satur
day morning r.n his way to the Douglas
county Jail, where, accord ng to sentence
of the court, he must be held prisoner until
he pays a fine of SlOrt.
Apotolos' antipathy to the railroad pass
grows out of the fact that his tW fine re
sulted from a charge to tho effect that the
defendant had sold or jrlvrn nway an em
ploye's pass on the Vnlon Tnclfio rail
road, contrary to tiie stipulations of the
interstate commerce law, governing rail
road transportation.
Apotolos was worklnir for thi t'nlon Pa
cific at ogden. Ho obtained a Vnund trip
pass between Ogden and this city. lie
journeyed to Omaha and liked the place
so well that he decided not to return to
the 1'tah rlty. Then he had an unused
return coupon, which ho either sold or
gave to Peter Karpusos. a follow country
man, who wanted to go to Ogden. Special
Officer Canada of tho Fnlon Pacific
learned of tho dal and lifted Karpusos
from a train at Fremont as he was speed
ing; westward. Apotolos waa arrested sev
eral days ago and was arraigned Saturday
before Fnited States Commissioner Ander
son. 11" demanded spoedy trial, and, in
asmuch as the commissioner's court is
only preliminary, Apotolos was sent over
to Judge Munger, where he entered a plea
of guilty. In order, as he stated, that he
might "get it done tip quicklike.
Judge Munger proved to be equal to the
speed requirements, and Immediately after
the plea of guilty was entered the penalty
was assessed, and it was all over. It Is
understood that the fine will be paid at
once probably this afternoon, so that Apo
tolos will not be a prisoner very long.
When the prisoner appeared before Judgo
Munger the Judge said:
"What's your name?"
"Cius," replied the defendant.
"That won't do, it's worse than that,"
answered the Judge.
Then "Qua" annexed the "Apotolos," and
the hearing proceeded.
Karpusos. who waa held only as a wit
ness, was discharged after the proceedings,
and he declared that next time he starts
to Ogden he will be sure that he la not
traveling on transportation that Is supplied
by violation of Interstate commerce stipu
lations. It Is possible to Impose a fine as high as
fl.CO for violations of the pass laws, but
the fact that Apotolos pleaued guilty prob
ably caused Judge Munger to withhold the
higher Sentence.

on the recent reduction !n too price of !

Receipts of cattle, sheep and hogs at

Considering the fact that there are six
more weeks of activity left In li'10 It Is
obvious that when the whole year shall
have been rounded out and computation Is
made there will be a big Increase in evi
dence. All Mork la I. oner.
Saturday prices on hogs, cattle and sheep
are low, not only on tho South Omaha
market, but on all the other big markets of
the country. South Omaha, In fact, has
been paying lo cents a hundred moro for
hog. than Chicago has been paying, hut
the decllno now under way promises to go
still further. The decline in hogs is from
10 to 15 cents within the last week, cornfed
steers are from ' to 40 cents lower than
they were a week ago and rango steers
have within the week dropped from 10 to 15
cents.
Wherefore, say well Informed stock
men, the secret of the lower prices of
meats to the consumer is made public t a
glance simply the operation of the law of
supply and demand.
There Is a division of sentiment among
Omaha meat market proprietors over the
decline in retail prices. Many of the subur
ban markets In residence sections profess
to have had no Information whatever con
cerning a reduction In meat prices, but the
more enterprising downtown meat shops
were quick to announce the slump and as a
result their trade Is growing by leaps and
bounds. Eventually the suburban meat
dealer w ill Join the procession, most likely,
for much of the trade that formerly went
to residential district markets now comes
to the big shops In the heart of the city.
Is the era of lower living coat here to
stay? That Is a question the householder
la asking many times a day. Most of the
authorities on the subject aro inclined to
believe that lower prices will prevail Indefi
nitely, for the bumper corn crop of Ne
braska, Towa, Missouri and other midwest
states Insures plenty of fattened stock
from the farms and such plenty naturally
has a tendency to Keep prices down.
The situation as to prices of Thanksgiving
turkeys in Omaha is not yet fully defined.

announcements along this line will bo forth

One of the features of this yiar Is the
