The Perplexities of a Soldier who
Ic-
dalgod in the luxury of a
Street Car Bide.
Many queer incidents have been
related of unsophisticated people's
adventures on the street cars. Su
perintendent Shelby, of the Trans
fer, was an eye witness to a funny
street car scene yestonhw, and we
shall hold him responsible for the
following story:
A very green looking "boy in
blue," one of Uncle Sam's brave
defenders, entered the car, with an
expression on his countenance in
tended to convey to the other occu
pants of the vehicle that riding on
street cars was no novelty to him.
But his traveling compaions thought
otherwise, and Mr. Shelby, being a
railroad man was convinced that
the soldier had never before in
dulged in a street car ride. After
uneasily sitting down for a few
moments, he thought it about time
to remunerate the railway company
for his transportation. So taking
out a dollar bill, lie goes forward,
opens the door, and steps out on the
platform with the driver, of whom
he inquires in a low voice the
amount of the fare.
:pjve cents for soldiers," was the
reply.
Handing the bill to the driver he
received m return the customary
envelope, containing a dollar in
scrip, nickles and car tickets. The
member of the awkward squad, de
posited theenvelope unopened in his
coat pocket, and resumed his seat
with a self-satisfied air, which seem
ed to say that he had done his duty.
Pretty soon the driver began ring
ing the bell at a lively rate. The
soldier couldn't understand it, and
in spite of himself he assumed a very
inquiring look.
Mr. Shelby came to his relief and
informed him that the bell was
ringing for him to come forward
and drop his fare in the contribution
box.
"You'll find your change in that
envelope in your pocket," Miid Mr.
Shelby.
The soldier pulled out the envel
ope, tore it in two in the middle and
thus split the currency into
halves. Three nickles dropped out,
which he picked up, and then
he threw the torn envelope
and the scrip out of the window.
aiKing up to tue box lie put m a
nickle, and deposited the other two
in his pocket, having paid just
eighty-five cents for the luxury of a
ride in a street car. The whole per
formance was witnessed by half a
dozen ier-on, who could not help
indulging in laughter at the ex
pense of the perplexed soldier.

STOCK-YARDS OF NEBRASKA
Some
Important Facts
Stock Man.
by a
It is now a fixed fact that we are
to be blessed with another enterprise
in the city f Omaha, in the shape
of stock-yards. This is something
.ihat has been long needed, and de
manded by the community general
ly. It has been asked by the farm
ers and the stock men throughout
the entire State for the last five
years, "Why not erect stock-yards in
Omaha, and give us a market for
our stock? Kb one has answered
to the call until now, although com
mercially of the greatest impor
tance to our city and State. Our
people have longseen the great need
of this enterprise, yet with
nil nther imnrovements which
have been started for the
best interests of Omaha,
and carried through, none will do
more for our advancement than the
establishing and carrying out of this
enterprise. No one can at the pre
sent time realize the magnitude of
this undertaking or its beneficial re
sults to Omaha, Douglas county and
the entire State, for it has been the
experience of all towns, that follow
ing stock-yards come the packing
houses. Tnis at once brings the
stock men and the farmers to our
city to find a market, and naturally
following this come the immense
elevators, and in a short time Oma
ha will boast of one of the finest
markets for stock and grain in the
West; and while Nebraska is the
banner State in the stock and grain
raising business, why not give
give her all the facilities for hand
ling her stock and grain; build up
her market and let her take her
place with the general stock mar
kets of the west Then will Omaha
bless the day that this enterprise
was started and carried out.
We took pains to call on some of
theleadingmen representing this
institution, and ascertaned that a
corporation had been formed under
the laws of the State, that the
articles of incorporation had been
filed; that the stock had been issued,
and a good portion of it taken; that
the plans of the buildings, &c,
were all completed, and the com
pany were about ready to com
mence building and would be ready
for business by the first of Septem
ber, thus giving to Omaha another
great attraction for stopk njon apd
farmers to attend our eounty and
State Fair.
We find the stock is being readily
taken by our enterprising citizens;
who always go down low in their
popjeets for the suppoit of anything
of this magnitude, and why not,
when we bear in nijnd .that the
Kansas City stock-yard last year de
clared a dividend of 20 per cent, and
will make 30 per cent, this year,
with not nearly so good a point for
stock-yards as Omaha. We can see
how readily capitalists, and men of
- r . i
means, would invest for t.ie interest
of Omaha, expecting to get it back
in the rise of property, and also as a
sure and solid investment.
