THE OMAHA DAILV BEE : WEDNESDAY , JANUARY 11 , 1882 , NOT "JUST TUT MODE , " "Tho Dnrk and bloody Mysto- rioa of EtnniJpraut Travel. \ I * What the Unfnshlonublo Ovorlnml Traveler Endures. S. V. Chronicle. Wo crossed the continent on un cm- iuruiit train. This is a dark nml bloody secret. Kvory o comes tlmt way , but fo\v toll of it. It isn't the thing , for there is a siiRgnstion of pov erty about it , nml who would bo poor ? \Vo keep telling ourselves tlmt this mode of trnvol lifts all sorts of advan tages , And it would appear true if we consider only the arguments in its favor. Hut Rive any of us a million * or BO , nnd see how readily wo would change your tune. As it is , wo think tt best to adopt the philosophy of "Colonel Sellers" mul declare stoutly that wo wouldn't 150 any other way if wo could , This is the way to "trav el" for the li'aat money. The sccnerv does you some good 1ms time to s ak in , as it wore. You can make your self at home ou [ the train. If you are fortunate enough to be n girl , and so ciable , you can go into the "caboose" when water cots scarce or warm and < lrink of the ice water reserved for the use ot the powers tlmt bo. The "ob servatory " is at your disposal. You may ait on the platform us the train creeps through the wild and picturesque moun tain scenery , or winds its slow length along over an endless stretch of plains. In short , you can enjoy the utmost freedom without feeling in danger of being ordered to "keep oil' the grass. " Yes , t came emigrant ; but the secret shall bo buried with me. winuu : THI : MISUUY IIEOINS. You leave homo with great "eclat. " You travel in good style until you reach Omalui. .lust hero you begin to reali/o what it is to go third class. The tiaiu stops , and you are request ed to gather up your traps and move to the Emigrant House. Four or live rooms in said house. All wretched. Makes your heart sink to look around , One room full of dirty Italians. Dir ty white folks everywhere waiting for a chiinco to wash.Vashroom crowd ed. Italians don't want to wash Couldn't be hired to. Can buy everything needed on the journey from a cake of soap to a bed. Yo bought a bed. A bed is n cushioned board made to iitjin between two seats turned together. Ours was covered with big figured curtained calico , m.d stuffed with heaven only knows what. Our pillows were brought from home. Sue's was blue because she was fair , and mine was turkey red to set oil' to the best ad vantage ul } ' nut-brown beauty. ( Ghostly joke , that. ) Wo must have looked raishing sleeping on those pillows. r\o often speculated upon what emotions may have filled the breast of any chance observer that be held us slumbering there in uncoil scions beauty. We had .to wait at Omaha several hours. Went up town and bought a few -things. Had a -drink of soda water. Awful hot day in July. Heard tlmt a woman hail boon overcome with the heat the day before and had fallen down in the -street. POSITIONS ASSIGNED. When the train had pulled up at the depot , wo wcio driven out upon the platform and sorted like so many sheep. A gray-headed man a lordly air and n club in his hand bossed the job. We were assigned places in the last car. Sue and I had two se ts to gether. Our protector and a man from "Down East" had the two oppo site ours. Back of us sat Isaac and his wifea middle-aged pair from Phil adelphia. Bound tor SanJose. . Across from them were two quiet girls traveling alone without a protector ! It's better to have one even if you have to protect him. An old ( Jjina- dian woman with five children sat just ahead of us. Old woman wanted four seats. She had paid her money for a ticket. Her money was just as good as anybody's. If it wasn't she would like to know why. BOBS was kind but firm. She had to confine herself and family to two seats. They slept like sardines in a box and reminded me of the numerous family Mark Twain desciibes. "Pa" had gone ahead , they told us , and bought a ijlaco in Oregon . Next came a pret ty little Jewess and a fair , plain , sen sible-looking English girl. Across the isles was Jewess' married sister , with four children. ' ' ' " had 1'apa , gone to Santa Cm/ and scut back for them. English girl was going to friends in Santa Barbara. Had been there be fore. Had lived in San Francisco and know nil about the place. She was our guide-book. She described all the scenery along the route before wo came to it. English girl commanded our reaped. She had been to London and Paris and entertained us with a recital of her adventures there. Wo took it all in and secretly wished wo had "traveled" too. A solitary fJer- jnan in the foie part of the car divid ed liis attention between a black bottle tle and a black dog , The canine was .given to understand tlint he must maintain a proper reserve if he valued his existonc. Lust , but not least , was a \\unmn of about two hundred pom ah avoiidupnis. Two interior masculines were attached to her train. Thev ap peared to bo father and son , She was wont to assert her rights even louder than the Canada woman. The husband rarely spoke , and the ion never , to my knowledge. Every morning she would wash and comb them both. She would swux.xlo the wash ra around their necks arid bore into their ears. They never raised a hand in suit-defense , Yielded with out A struggle. Wo girls watched the son day after day throbbing hearts , What seemed unaccountable to us wt-s that ho evidently did not re- procato our interest. Wo analy/ed him , arrived at the conclusion tlmthe ; was deaf , dumb , or foolish , A Mil IIUIAN WIDOW. I must not torgot to mention the Michigan widow , She was a dandy. IJer traveling dress was a gray and black combination of Japanese silk. Looked bettor than any one else , Apologi/.ed for her appearance. She had been used to bettor things , Had "ood cloths in her trunk. Trunk was checked , of course. She couldn't get at them. Wo wore sorry for her. She was going to Oregon where it did not rain. Widow had beautiful hair , Devoted an hour each morning to brushing and arranging it. I'ut it up 11 hairpin * every night to insure orilups uO\t imtrnini ; . How the mys- loiit'fl of our toilets weio disclosed to me iinothir ! Widow \v.\a a stickler for fresh air. Was not content to control the tips and downs of her own window. Wanted to run all the windows dews in the vicinity. Had the none to r.iito ours when wo were asleep. 1 caught cold. Humped round font ilny. Slip tried it niun. \Ve sat iliu\n on her , metaphorically. Sl o didn't c u > . Old gentleman sat on her. She M cakened , \ \ hen the win- dews \\ero shut it was close mul stuffy and garlicky. Positively frightful , Hard to choose between this and a draught. Fell to speculating upon the per cent of oxygen in the nil wo were breathing. " 0 Lord ! " 1 thought , "lot this cup pass from mo , and give mo a dose of Andcrsonvilloor Libbyl" Widow had big calico b.ig with puck- urine string to it. This was to carry dressing sack , toilet articles , bedroom sot and other household furniture. No piano. She was esthetic. The urawiour ofHtho scenery in Echo and Weber canyons stirred her great soul to its profoundest depths. She raved. Tackled mo. Paid it inspired sub lime thoughts. Wanted mo to indorse that statement. Was pained by niv lack of enthusiasm , I had been par- ali/.od two years before by the ro mantic beauty of the Alleglmnies , Could not gush. Had got past that. AH the mountains in the world piled up would not move me. Itut "sub lime thoughts" was good. I cherish * cd that expression. Mndo'nso o it in my next letter home. Passed it off as my own. They will never know the difference. 1I'llOMISrOfS LAVA101U. Water tank and sink in one end of car. Public drinking cup chained to tank. Everybody that was anybody had a private drinking cup. A few had private wash basins. English girl detoiminod to bo among the few. Shu had a pint basin to hold milk. Her teapot was a covered tin cup. She eschewed ten and collet1. Kept milk in the teapot. Took the pint basin for a kith-tub. Water of the alkali regions chaps the skin and is bail for the hair. We preferred to bo classified among the great unwashed. Public wash basin served a vtuiuty of puiposes. Lost its individuality as n wash basin Dishes washed in it. Towels , handkerchiefs , hosiery and mysterious infantile upholstery woie laundried there. It was there that the popular nose bled as we ascended into the rarelield atmospheic of the mountains. Windows were always fastened with washed garments hung up to dry. Canada woman's daughter had an eye to thrifty housekeeping. Search ed around and found an old broom. Swept their rubbish under our seat. We borrowed her broom and swept it over to Isaac. "Every man for hi.u- sclf and the Devil take the hinder- most. " Infants swarmed. Mothers looked wagged out. It is better to bo young again and single on an emigrant train. Especially in time of danger. Wo had oiie narrow escape , among the moun tains. It had been raining. A'atream rushed down the mountain side and softened the earth under the track. It gradually caved away as we passed over. Men were oraered to jump from the train to lighten it. They jumped to lighten ( ? ) it. Wo want ed to help the train , too. Conductor restrained us. Ono man tried to save his wito. Uow odd ! But they wore young. Out on their wedding tour. She got a duckintr and sprained her wrist. More scart than hurt. Women screamed. Some prayed. Mothcis rushed around to find their children. Lively times. Better than camp meeting. When it was all over wo had something to talk about. Sever al wept. The two hundred pound woman thanked the Lord for fetching her through in good condition. An nounced her intention of letting him take His own course in future. She would submit to His will. So Ho ia running the universe Himself , now. Whatever ecccntricitie. Ho may in- duldgo in , wo may rest assured that it is not at her suggestion. KNJOVIM ! SUNDAK Our first Sunday came while wo out on tlio plains. Nothing to bo seen but sagebrush. No fun in looking out of the window. What should wo do ? It seemed heathenish to play cards. AVe had read guide-books till they palled upon the taste , The down-East man got up an argument on the URO of whisky and tobacco. Ho claimed that tobacco was more in jurious than whisky. Our protector took fie other side. The rest of us listened , putting in a word nov and then. But there was nothing at stake , and intercts waned , conversation Ihig- god , came to a dead stop , A few hi- blea were brought out. That was a new idea. Mine was in my trunk un der everything else , therefore I felt wicked and disposed to criticise my nek'hborB. Noticed that their eyes often wandered from their booka. Don't believe that there was much solid reading done. Some one dis covered a horizontal bar across the car. Oot up and began excercising. All followed the example. Tried to raise ourselves by arm muscle and rest our chins on the bar. This amusement was the best wo had found. It played out at last. Some wont buck to bibles. Some wrote letters back homo. Others remembered their diaries , and thus wo killed time. A little Italian girl fell from the train. This produced a momentary excite , incut. She had scarcely touched the ground before she was up and run ning a race with the engine. They stopped , and waiting till she rnmo up helped her on board , and restored her to the arms of her frightened ma. No Snob Word an Fail.

Itoux , of thu engineer corps , regards thu determination of the proper nlope to be given to this im mense chasm as one of the most ditli- cult questions to wisely Kolvo which they have yet en countered , As it is to be through a formation of an untried iirv turo the work involved between dif ferent angles ia of great moment. Of the actual work of excavation voiy little 1ms > et bonn dono. The ork done tip to this tinUi IMS been prelimhmty. M. IJoux iivi" ton yiMis iw the time in which the canal will 1m finished , but when wo nro told that the company has enl ) fifteen hundred men nt woik tlio time named serins absurd. Ho Hays the most nd > mined methods and tin' ' most vnhmblo labor i\vinj machines liuvo been adopted , but with the md of'these and all poMtblo facilities it would take nn niiny of labonri to do the \\ork in the time named It is dnnied that the yellow- fever prevails in that ivigion. The sickness prevalent is "c.ilc.itura" or Panama fever , and remittent bilious fever. The most unexpected fact i that the company is overrun with an influx of laborers. This ho attrib utes to the ruin of Peru and the exit from that country of persons whose huiincas and employment have been destroyed by the civil war The price of labor nuy bo absolutely dictated by the company. The people pouring in are French , Gorman , English and Chinese. It in given out that the work is to be pressed from this for ward , Tlio Light of Comlnff Driya. A San Jose coirespondent writes the following account of the electric light which now successfully illnmi natos that city : One of our editors three or four months ago , took it into his head , to erect an electric tower to test electric- ty for street lightning , It was a novelty olty and 1 thought an account of it when completed would bo interest ing to you , so 1 neglected writ- ting to you nnd and fhis is my excuse , for the tower has been delayed from time to time and is only just now completed. It is a success ; of couiao it mot with opposition fiom the ( las Co. , organ and nil old fogies , but the editor .1. Owen , of the "Mercury , " who is ta'1 ' , roman- nogcd , i little stoop shouldered , called by that pus organ "stately crane1' could not bo ridiculed down. The result is a stately tower 200 foot high , with an electric light of 'Jl)00 , ( ) candle power on the top ; men can see see the time of night by the watch , half a milo away , and it casts a distinct shadow throe miles away. About four such lights will light our city of about 1(1,000 inhabitants , ten times better than the present ijaa , and at least one- li'i'f cheaper , the gas costs SfiOO a month , nt Sli.50 per 1000 feet. Owen claims several points on his lower. It is built at the intersection of two business streets and is no obstruction. It stands on the four corners ( out edges of sidewalks ) inclined to the center and is bu'lt of , gas-pipe , piop- erty arched and braced. It is quite ornamental , but the light is the crowning glory ; beautiful , soft , white and ple.usant ; it is not huge but is brilliant and penetrating. Wo think wo are done with the light of other days. Wohnvo got the first electric tower on this coast , and the highest in the United States , if not in the world , by five feet. The duiker the night the better the light ; the clouds seem to bo good reflectors. In fact , it is a most won derful light. Buohlin's Arnica Salve.

A well known Gorman manufac turer of mica wares , Hcrr Raphael , of Breslau , now makes mica masks for the face which are quite transparent , very light nnd alloctcd neither by heat nor by acids , They alford good protection to all workmen who are liable to bo injured by heat , dust or noxious vapors ; all workers with fir , metal and glass meltors , stonemasons , etc. In all kinds of grinding and polishing work the flying fragments rebound from the arched mica plates of the mask with out injuring them. These plates are fixed in a metnllic frame , which is well isolated by means of asbestos , so as not to bo attacked by heat or acid. These masks allow the turning of the eyes in any direction , nnd , an against mica spectacles , they afford the ml vantage of protection to the whole face. In ceitain cases the nek and shoulders may also bo guarded by a sheet of cloth impreg nated with fireproof nmtoiial , or by asbestos sheet attached to the mask. The interval between the mica and the eyes allow ) of workmen who have poor eyesight wcarini' spectacles , and of woikors with fite or in melting operations wearing colored glass spec tacles under the mask without fear of breaking of the glass , mica being such a bad conductor of heat. Where the musk has to bo worn long il is found desirable to add a caoutchouc tube with mouth piece for admission of fresh air. The tube passes out to the shoulders , where its funnel-shaped end ( sometimes holding a moistened sponge ; ia supported. TJio mask has n sort of cap attached to it for fixture on the head. WORTHY OF PRAISE. As a rule wo do not recommend patent medicines , but when wo know of one that really is n public benefac tor , and does positively cure , then wo consider it our duty to impart that in formation to all. Electric bitten are truly a most valuable medicine , nnd will surely cure Biliousness , Fever and Ague , Stomach , Liver arid Kidney complaints , oven where all other rein. edie fail. Wo know whereof wo sneak , and can freely recommend to all. [ Ex. Sold at 50 cents a bottle. Tsh ( fc McMuhon. (7) ( ) Matter of Application of KiU'lien ] ! ro for Liquor License. NOTION.
