It is rather strange that tho gnats, which jiow, and will for tho ncrt threo woeks, provo a great annoy anco, aro not found east of Kearney nor west of Julcsburg, though north and south this gnat territory cr.tends from Oklahoma up into South Dakota.

A week or so ago The Tribune man had a talk with an employe of tho Un ion Pacific headquarters at Omaha whoso duty It Is to keep tab on what tho Burlington and other competing roads are doing, and ho stated that he was positively certain that work on the Platte Valley line would begin as soon as tho tunnel work In Wyoming was finished.
