A new book descriprive ot
Omaha issued by The
Xorth-Western lane.
One of the most attractive railroad
publications that has been seen in
quite a while is the booklet descrip
tive of Omaha , Council BlulTs and
South Omaha , HOW being distributed
by the passenger department of the
Chicago & North-Western Ry. It is
a very interesting publication giving
a mass of information as to the his
torical , civic and commercial growth
of the cities named , all gotten up in
excellent taste , handsomely illustrat
ed and bound in an attractive cover.
The North-western Line is to be
complimented on the spirit evidenced
in producing .jthis publication , which
it is hoped will be of much value to
those cities to whose interest the lit
tle volume is devoted.
A copv of the book may be secured
