Will Erect Ice Plant.
C. M. Sccrist, of Chicago, manager
of tho Pacific Fruit Express Co., ac
companied by J. Van Rensalor, of Sunt.
Parks' offico In Omaha, spout Sunday
in town, tho object of Mr. Sccrist's
yisi t being to look over local conditions
preparatory to tho erection of an arti
ficial ico plnnt noxt year. Tho Union
Pacific has gono out of tho refrigerat
ing business, and has turned its ico
houses over to tho fruit express com
pany, who will in tho futuro look after
the icing of its cars, which nro now
used almost exclusively on tho Union
Pacific. Tho express company figures
that it can mnnufacturo artificial ico
cheaper than it can haul it from Lara
mie or Gothenburg, ns has boon donp
in the past, nnd oven nt less expense
than though the crop was harvested
from tho luko cast of town.
Mr. Sccrist said tho erection of tho
plant nt North Platto is not a probabili
ty but an nssurcd fact, and that it will
bo in operation to tnko earn of all 1010
refrigerating. Tho present ico plant
will bo kept intact bo far as now known,
nsit will bo necessary to use part of tho
houses for Btorage purposes and all of
tho platform capacity for loading tho
ico into tho cars.
Consider Park Site.
After the session of tho city council
mooting Friday ovoning, tho committee
to which tho park proposition made by
Wm. E. Shuman wns roforred, met
with Mr. Shumnn nnd tho park .prop
osition wns didcusscd. Tho suggestion
was mndo that n larger tract ought to
ho socurcd for park purposes and Mr.
Shuman offorcu the city a tract con
taining a little moro thun elevon acres
extending from Second to Fourth
streets nnd l'ust eight blocks from Dow
oy street. This tract was offered to
tho city for $2,000, part payable this
yoar and part payablu in a year.
This proposition will no doubt bo
taken up and bo disposed of ut tho
noxt regular mooting of the city coun
cil. Twenty ycara ago Tho Tribune
urged tho purchasing of park Bites and
regrets that no bucIi action was takon
at that time. The Tribuno bol'ovcs
that the olfer of cloven acres should bo
accepted by tho council and a park es
tablished. Enforce the Ordinance.
Bicyclo riders no longer observe tho

Ings ago P, A. Norton was run into by
a Jap ridor with such forco ns to throw
him off tho walk, tear his clothing and
bruise his body considerably, Ho cap
tured tho wheel, took it homo and is
now waiting for tho Jap to como and

Mr. Norton's experience is ono of a
number that havo recontly occurred,
