and featureless and a narrow one.

small decline from the opening and
below last night's largely In sym

less and operated largely In sym

The Chicago Inter-Ocean says
in
part: wneat There were a good
many bulls on wheat on the curb last
night. A number of former bears
talked bullish and admitted they
long on wheat, while some of those
who have been bullish said they
went long from the recent low point
which followed, if a continued a lit
tle further, will make a good market
on which to take profits. Corn
bentiment among the corn traders
last night was mixed. Several of the
large operators said they had taken
profits and that many who bought
sold out, as there had been a 3-ccnt
advance since the report came in and
prices were up 10c.

Dr. ("has. W. Kliut's 5-Foot Library
A complete library for the travel
ing people something distinctively
new in railroad service, has Just
been adopted by the Chicago, Bur
llngton & Qulncy railroad for its
fast trains between Chicago and
Denver.
Four new cars were on exhibition
yesterday at the passenger yards of
the Burlington railroad system t
Fourteenth street and attracted
wide attention among railway ex
perts.
The Burlington wl:: equip each of
thenars wilh a "five-foot library
selected by Dr. Charles W. Eliot
president, emeritus of Harvard unl
verslty, and in addition will, supply
other works Intended to give selec
tlon of the broadest possible scope
to the amount of space available.
The new cars are unique in many
ways, embodying the idea of a loung
Ing club on wheels. ' The cars are
for the general use of its passengers
and In all likelihood will be as well
patronized by the women as the men
One end of the car Is devoted to
a sort of sun parlor arrangement
which Is regarded as a big improve
ment on the old style observation at
tachment. This section is entirely
enclosed in glass fitted in bronze
window sashes and bronze doors
The windows are so adjusted to the
sash which is parted In the middle
that they can be lowered and raised
to suit the atmospheric conditions
When the weather permits, this
part of the coach may be used In
much the same way as the observa
tion platform. In weather that is
less favorable, the windows may be
adjusted bo as to entirely eliminate
the dust feature.
The cars are seventy-eight feet in
length. They are split up into a

No expense has been spared in the
manufacture of the car or its interior
adornments. The writing room and
ladles' parlor are finished in Sanjago

The sun parlor feature of the car,
on bright days, promises to be the
most attractive innovation. Here the
passengers may bask in the sunshine

Was Here on a Sad Mission.
Mrs. Cassie E. Bates arrived here
last Saturday morning from Lexing
ton, Neb., with the body of her son,
Robert Kirk Bates, who died from
spinal troubles In the above named
place early Thursday morning, Sep
tember 2, 1909. The deceased held
a position in a department store at
Grand Island, Neb., and for several
days had complained of not' feeling
well. Saturday he went to the home
of his mother at Lexington. Medical
aid was invoked, and although
everything was done that a loving
mother and medical science could
do, he passed away Thursday morn
ing. The body was brought her to
be interred in the cemetery where
his brother sleeps, as well as his
grandfather and other relatives.
Robert Kirk Bates was born in
Grant City, Mo., July 27, 1889.
When about 3 years old his parents
moved away. The mother finally lo
cated at Lexington, Neb., where she
is at present engaged in the millin
ery business. The son went with
her and was engaged as stated
above when death terminated his
earthly career. It was our pleasure
personally to know Robert Kirk
Bates, as well as many people who
knew him even better than we, and
who testified to his exalted charac

young men of his class. He grad
uated with high honors from the
Plattsmouth (Neb.) high school. He
had a bright and analytical mind
far beyond young men of his age,
and it was a pleasure to discuss with
him questions of religion, society
and politics. He had high ideals
and was possessed of a burning de
sire to make something of himselT
so that he could have a place In the
history of his country as a man who
had accomplished results during his
world career. How sad that so prom
ising a young life should not be per

It was indeed a sad home coming
to the mother. Here 6he was born.
Here her darling boy was born. Now
she comes back to lay him away be

well when but a small girl. No

The Journal learns with much
gratification that the Btork arrived
on September 3 at the home of

Lamphear rivals his wife in believ

that is saying some. Both mother
