Stntn Hintorioal Society r Unburn fe Jjtortlt TWENTY-NINTH YEAR. NORTH PLATTE, NEB., MAY 8, 1914. No. 3X I i Changes to Be Made, In Trainmasters In railroad circles it is said that changes will soon bo made in train masters on the Third and Fourth dis tricts. Trainmaster Sage who has been Btntionad here for several months will rsign and return to Omaha and resume his run as passengor conductor. Ho will be succeeded by Trainmaster "VanWirt, of the Fourth district, who is well known to Third district employes. Claude Delanoy, who has boen fore man at Northport, will succeed Van Wirt as trainmaster on the Fourth district. These changes aro scheduled to be made in the near future. Effective at once, trains between Nortli Platte and Cheyenne will be operated from the North Platte dis patchers' office. For somd time past the jurisdiction of the local office has been to Sidney, where dispatchers have been maintained. The Sidney office will be abandoned, and J. T. Davis will come to North Platte a night chief. This permanently puts a quietus on the much-talked of removal of the train dispatchers' office from North Platte to Sidney, and which at one time was sprioualy considered by the Omaha officials. H. V. Hilliker, of Denver, formerly terminal superintendent in that city, now traveling inspector of traffic, -spent a few hours in town yesterday while enrouto east.

Tho one they sug -gested would more than fill the presunt needs and with this addition the city could save some of their lighting ex pense" by furnishing their own lights from the power they already generate. ran 11 un Ml n They D offer the Sterlin It -M WW ' rfHi ; & All garments worth 50c at 39c, 75c garments at 59c, $1.00 garments 79c, $1.25 at 99c, $1.50 at 1.19, 2.50 at 1.99 and 3.00 at 2.39. w y "tsi m. v t- 'i r D: w in: 3d KJU IpM 41, IK Vk Shoot to Hold Next Week.
