Description of Scenes in
"Merrie England"
THREE DAYS IN LONDON TOWN
West Kirby, Cheshire. England.
March II, I !!.!.
Elltor Herald.
Allinnce, Nebr.
Dear Sir: The Alliance pap I last
dated March 18th. have Just reached
us and with the letters received by
same mail. Rave us the first news we
have received of the blizzard of Mar.
1.1th. The papers hrre have given
some graphic details of the tornado
or cyclone which struck Omaha and
vicinity Easter Sunday and the awful
destruction wrought by that and the
floods which covered Ohio and Penn
sylvanla afterwards.
It is fortunate indeed that no live
were lost in our part of the country,
although we notice that the stock
loss has run into thousands of dol
lars. It seems almost incredible that
such devastation has been wrought In
that part of the country we so late
ly passed through when we consider
how fortunate we were in having
such an exceptionally fine sea voyage
and have had delightful weather here
most of the time since our arrival.
We reached West Kirby last night
about 10:;10, returning from London,
and sat up until about l:.10 this
morning absorbing the news contain
ed In the correspondence and papers
which had come here during our ab
sence and are now anxiously await
ing more definite nemo of the storms
of Easter week, particularly, from
Omaha.
My lost letter contained a refer
ence to a trip made to Liverpool tout
in writing I overlooked one point
worthy of mention. They are still
using the overhead wire for the cur
rent for their street care all double
deck cars -but on practically all the
main streets In place of having these
wires supported by poles placed along
the curbs, they are carried on arms
extending from either side of orna
mental posts placed in the middle of
the streets, these posts being sur
mounted with an electric light, thus
serving the double purpose of carry
ing the wires and lighting the
stii etB. In London, street cms KM
not such a prominent feature, but
where they are used, the third rail
furnishes the propelling DOW4 r.
Tlie common conveyance in Lon
don Is the motor omnibus. These
buses are quite as convenient, if not
more so, as the street cars and one
very con'--lr-' '-tUrr If that the
passengers can bwuti and alight toon
them right tit the curb instead of
getting out into the crowded stive ta.
In addition to this they traverse all
the streets of the city, whereas the
street cars e over only certain streets.
We rikl not spend more than one
dollar to see the larger part, of the
surface of London from the tops of
these buses. To reach the several
Important buildings we visited, the
underground railway appealed to us
best as the service is very good and
carries one all over town in a vary
short time. Crystal palace Is in the
suburbs and to roach that yesterday
we went on the overhead steam
road, returning to London Bridge on
the overhead vjlectric.
We left West Kirby at 8:30 a. m
March 29th, changed to an express
train eleven miles from here and
Tower Rrldge to the Tower of Ion
don.
Monday morning the first place of
Interest was this Tower of London,
the ancient palace, fortress onrtaon.
Here we met our first disappoint
ment, thla bflng brought about by
the suffragettes. Everything In and
about the Tower was freely shown
to u." except the Crown Jew and
hese were not on view and have
not been for two months, aa these
belllgerant ladles seem to think
them legitimate chjects on which
to express their sentiments. The
-entries on duty, the Beef-enters In
their old style garb, and the historic
areata connected with this place It
would appear would create some
feeling of nwe In anyone else, but
I guess the tadlee think desperate
needs require desperate M DM dies. A
heart fog hung over London all day
Monday, but with the aid of the ev
er ready policemen a moat efficient
and imposing body of men we were
able .to get around with little diffi
culty, the main difficulty when it did
occur, being to distinguish a pollce
mnn in the fog.
lunus letter gnl two
The funeral of Viscount Wolseley
took place in St. Paul's Cathedral
Monday morntaig and this being u
st,, i funeral the streets along the
line of the procession were blocked
off. Sitting on the top of a bus, we
could look over the crowd lined up
on the pavements and see the sol
diers marching along to take their
part in the day's ceremony. Within
two blocks of the city we were
blocked for about ten minutes while
the police lined up the crowds and
directed the traffic out of the pro
hibited district for traffic, and al
though we could not see more than
across the street on account of the
fog, we could Imagine similar scenes
being enacted on all the converging
streets about us and were glad when
we were finally released.
Krom the Tower we went to the
Crystal Palace. This, as all know, is
a pleasure resort for all Londoners
and all visitors to London and la
reached by rail in about 20 minutes
from London Rrldge. The building
is practically all glass set In steel
and is a wonder from an architectur
al and mechanical standpoint alone.
tiaB a central nave 1,600 ft. long with
several aisles leading off it, un or
gan with 4.'!84 pipes and an orches
tra to accommodate a chorus of 5000
persons. There ore 200 acres of
tastefully laid out gardens surround
ing It and in and about the gardens
can be found every kind of amuse
ment the pleasure seeker may de
sire, Both Inside, and outside the
building: arc commodious la net rooms
and curios of all nature abound lu re
We had only a few hours there, but
would have enjoyed spending at
least three days, and in-tend of three
days in London we would have pre
ferred three weeks, for while I have
erd avored to convey to you some
impression of what, we did no) sea
would fill several volutins from the
Den of one who has been over the
ground we did not have time to vis
it. Yours sincere! v,

Cream on the Increase
Ardmore (S. D.i American, April Hi
Frank Downey, traveling repi . sent
ative of the Alliance Creamery Co.
of Alliance, Nebr., showed us cream
ery record a few daj s ngo Indicating
the amount of cream shipped from
tin ;!5 or 40 tributary stations. Ard

anicjv; of cream furnished. The lo

reached London five hours from the ' ten enni St cream shipped during the
time of starting, a dhrance of 'JH month of March last year to :5: cans
miles, stopping enroute at only three for the same month this year
1 his is indicative of the fact that
the people In this territory are wak
ing up to a realization that the
dairying part of the agricultural In
dustry is a most important branch,
too profitable to be neglected.
Should the proportionate Increase be
as great fcr a few years to come it
will not be long before Ardmore can
produce much larger quantity of
that precious butter fat.

There is nothing slow about travel
ing here by rail, our average .speed
on this trip being at least 50 miles
per hour, the only time we slowed
up being when going through the
larger towns, and on the return trip
lost night with the same stops, ffe
covered 180 miles, to where we had
to change for West Kirby, in four
hours even. Their dining car ac
commodations do not equal ours but
the meals served are excellent and
at reasonable prices.

Westminster Abbey, the history of

where the illustrious dead of the n:i
lion are buried, in addition, there
are memorials he"e to thos.e who
have earned honcr and distinction
