way. A year or two ago they owed M.
C. Keith a large amount but it has been
paid. Mr. Keith, it is stated, owns stock
in the South Omaha stock yards deal, but
the Swan's interest there was so small
that it is hardly considered by .the Com
pany. Those well informed in this city
believe that the firm will soon be able to
resume, If given time by the creditors, as
their nssests in land and cattle must be
nearly equal to the indebtedness

is the only stove with movable low oven that van
be used for baking, washing, etc. Other low
ovens are stationary and, can only be used, for

the tank cannot be tiled while one or more
