and tlio oily tbo commllteo offered to
pay tbo cost of tlio right of way for
two miles of track oust of tbo city to
ronnecl tlio main line of tbo Northwestern -
western tialn with tbo M0. . track
oasl of tlio Nortbfoik bridge , over
which and the M. & O. and U. 1' . tracltH
tlio Northwestern trains could outer
tlio city , provided the company would
Iron and use the ploco of track and
erect a union station.
Tlio matter having been under dis
cussion for suveral days , tlio odlclalH
had already studlod maps of tlio local
ity where It was wanted to place the
union station , and they had determined
that It Is an Impractical proposition
to erect such n station north of Nor
folk avenue , because of the fact that
the trains would have to bo brought
into the station on a curve , which
from a railroad standpoint Is a very
Imd sjtuatlon. Other reasons were al
leged as to why the location north of
Norfolk avenue would ho objection-
nble , and tlio superintendents gave it
ns their opinion that the managers of
the road would not sanction such n
building at that place.
Tbo olllcers said that their road must
i 1mvo a depot up town and that It will
lie built this your. If the city vacates
Philip avenue , as has been asked , then
the depot they will put 'iip ' will bo
much better than If they Imvo to erect
It on their own ground near Philip av
enue That proposition , they said , was
ono thaf the town must decldo without
the Intervention of the railroad.
The commit ! " ! ' was assured , how
ever , that the erection of this depot
would not Jeopardize the prospects of
making the loop east of town and run-
nlng tlio passenger trains to Its up
town station. It was urged that this
Is a bad time to ask much from rail
road companies In Nebraska , In face
of the 2-cont faro law which will go
Into effect within a few days , and oth
er anti-railroad legislation and autl-
railroad sentiment which prevails In
tlio state Just now.
Superintendent Hrnilcn agreed to re-
l > ort the request to the officials of the
road in Chicago.

INNOVATION IN BOOKKEEPING
_
C. P. Parish Adopts New Method That
Saves Trouble and Memory.
An Innovation In the bookkeeping
accounts ot a grocery store , both for
the firm and for the housewife who
buys , has been adopted by C. P. Parish
of this city and ho Is very much de
lighted with the success of the sys
tem. By means of the new system ,
Mr. Parish has his accounts all posted
simultaneously with making the sales ,
so that the accounts are all brought up
to the minute at all times. A partlc-
ularjy appealing feature is the fact
that by means of the method the pur
chaser gets , on every statement , the
balance duo from past purchases , so
that the purchaser knows at any mo
ment just how much he may owe the
firm. In this way all disagreements
resulting from falling memory , are
done away with.
Each customer of the firm has a lit
tlo holder nt the back door of her
home , where the dellvoryman loavoa
n copy of the statement , showing the
balance due , and therefore carrying
the full amount duo up to the moment.
There Is no bookkeeping work to bo
done by the firm after the sale la made
no piling up or posting for nights
and Sundays. All accounts are kept in
a case which Is provided with metal
sheets or leaves. On each inofnl sheet
are n number of small holders , which
contain Individual accounts. Each
bill of goods bought is slipped Into
this holder , the last bill always being
placed on top. Each bill showing the
balance duo , the retailer has simply
to glance at the top statement to get
the full amount duo.
Mr. Parish started In with the now
system yesterday.
