; Miss Jontz Pleads
:i for the Old Women
Miss Ida V. Jonti of the Associated
- Charities believes In Christmas cheer for
the little ones, but it Is her opinion that
' the aged and the infirm are more or less
-neglected.
"We are all thinking about the chll-
J dren now," said Miss Jontz, "and while
that is all right I think some of us should
consider the older ladles between 90 and
i 70 years who have been earning their
?Tay and find It hard, in the winter
J time especially. Coal must be bought,
; and food and clothing and many of them
. work by the day, so that it is doubly
difficult during the winter months."
f;. Miss Jonts suggests that to a-dosen or
more of these old people who ' refuse to
;,'be supported by the county and are
' struggling for existence a ton of coal
would not be an unwelcome gift. She
bad a list of the most needy and will
(, furnish names to those who apply in

READY FOR THROUGH TRAINS
Northwestern and Missouri Pacific
Complete Big Task.
FROM ST. PAUL TO ST. LOUIS
Reads Kipret to Speed I p Their
Trains to, .! the fastest Serv
ice Uetnrea These Two
Important Point.
For more than a year officials of the
Northwestern and the Missouri Pacific
Railroad companies have been working
on a plan for throuxh car service be
tween St. Paul. Minneapolis and St.
Louis, via Omaha. I'ntll recently the
only thing preventing the consumma
tlon of the plans were the condition of
the Missouri Pacific line between Omaha
and Kansas City. During the last sum
mer the Missouri Pacific has expended
close to $1,000,000 improving this portion
of the system. Now its conditions Is the
pink of perfection and Indications are that
the traffic deal will go through and per
haps the new service will bo inaugurated
as early as the first of next year.
The Northwestern has never been In
position to compete for the St. Ixul
and sotuhern pessenger business, nor
haa the Missouri Pacific been In a posi
tion to compete for the business north
of Omaha. With the new alliance, both
roads will be enabled to enter territory
that Is rich and has lietetofore been
closed to them.
Sw Traffic Arrangements.
The new traffic arrangement follows
closely upon the additional passenger
service that the Missouri Pacific Installs
between Omaha and St. Louis about the
first of the year, when a passenger train,
equal to that of any road In the country
will he put on tha road.
As the lineup Is at this time the
through car service between St. Paul,
Minneapolis and St. Louis, via Omaha,
will consist of a Pullman attached to each
of the two fast trains of tho Northwest
ern and the Missouri Pacific.
Whllo the distance between St. Paul
and St. Louis by way of Omaha la a little
greater than by some of the other roads
operating between the Minnesota and
Missouri cities, distance will be eliminated
by the cutting of the time. In other
words, the Northwestern and Missouri
Pacific expect to speed their trains up
o that they will make practically the
same time as those of the shortest lines.
Wappich in Favor
of Salvage Corps
W. V. Wappich, police and fire com
missioner, Is boosting for a fire Insurance
patrol or salvage corps for Omaha, be
lieving hundreds of dollars will be saved
annually when a good "tarpaulin brig
ade" is established. Writing to J. M.
Guild, commissioner of the Commercial
club. Mr. Wappich says:
"Before Omaha Can start a full salvage
corps it will be necessary to have some
legislation by our state legislature' to
secure funds from Insurance companies
and agents."
Mr. Wappich told of the efficient work
of the salvage corps in Kansas City
where seventeen men, two stations and
1,000 tarpaulin covers, save hundreds of
dollars to property owners and insurance
companies at every fire.
'I was at a fire a month ago," said
Mr. Wappich, "and by taking a piece of
tarpaulin and covering a planolo and pi
ano In a room where the water was run
ning down I saved somebody either the
owner or the insurance company $8u0.
A resolution has been passed by the
city council authorizing the purchase of
about $200 worth of tarpaulin covers.
No extra men will be employed to handle
these, but in time an effort to establish
a first class ' salvage corps In the city,
to work with the firemen and to assist
them in fighting fires as well as savins
furniture, will be made.

Chatterbox Tanneu
Once Stenographer
Under Gerrit Fort
lierr.t Kort, imtMMm'r traffic manager
of the I'nlon Vaolflc, has a Kreat many
admirers, but none more sincere than
Julius Tannen. alio Is appearing tnU
week at the Orpheum theater. When
Julius was an ambitious lad ot 17 he was
employed ss stenographer by Mr. Fort
at the time the latter was secretary of
the Central Passenger association, the
offices of which in Chicago were the
clearance house for the old 1.OU0 Inter
changeable mileage books.
Tannen at that time had thea'-dal as
pirations, but he remained with Mr. Fort
for three years. In the meautlme. how
ever, he was In close touch with George
Ade, who was thon doing Fables In Hlang
on the old Chicago Record. Ade recog
nised in young Tannen rare ability to
entertain and urged hiin to take up the
theatrical profession. George Cohen also
gave the young man much encourage
ment, and still predicts even greater
heights for the comedian. In his earlier
days Tannen. keen-witted and with a
fine conception of humor, could give re
markably occurate imitations of Msns
field. Hopper, Godwin. Cohen and other
celebrities. These Imitations attracted
serious attention from men well up In
the profession, and it was not long until
Julius was doing the circuits, making a
hit from the outset.
His original act has simmered down to
a monologue, which he frankly admits Is
nothing more than a reflection of the
witticisms of such humographers as Dick
Uttle and Bert Taylor of the v-ulcugo
Tribune, George Fitch of the Peoria Herald-Transcript,
author of the Stwash
stories and a former Council Bluffs news
paper man; Kin Hubbard of the Indianap
olis News, creator of Abe Martin and his
abrupt philosophy; Walt Mason, the
short-grass philosopher of Emporia; Wil
liam Allen White, and a score of others.
And all are admiring friends of Tannen'a.
He admits that his success Is largely due
to these men.
