aright bunting , the stars and stripes
woven about all the stands mid fes
tooned from the pillars , and the rich
banners of the Gorman saddles , give
a warm coloring to the occno tint
driven uway nil thoughts of the frigid
atmosphere outside. The steady add
weather and the nights radiant with
moonlight are a great incentive to
draw out n crowd , and such n favor
able condition of affairs will no doubt

Correspondence of Till Ilm.
FitKMoiiT , Nob. , January 13. Bun-
ness for the last few dayo haa been
very quiet on account of the extreme
cold weather , which has ranged from
0 * to 34 * below aero.
I will imko ono exception to the
above ( statement , for the coal doaleis
a y that business Is splendid. Everyone
ono cm afford to keep warm tbis win
ter , though it is very cold , for coal ia
wonderfully cheap. Wo only pay
§ 14 n ton for hard coal This Is prob
ably duo to the competing lines of
nil roads that rsach our city , and
when wo got the road from L ticjln ,
if Ha managers are as earnest in com
peting with other roada aa the manag
ers of the Union Paciih and Sionx
City it Pacific , hard coal will probably
bo worth $21 per ton. It is thus do
rullroado compete. But speaking t'f '
ruilroadn and inonnfjera of railroads
n little circumstance happened
within the past faw days that might
throw sorno light npon the generosity
and magnanimity of the managers of
the Onion Pacilio Several days ago
a brakcnmn , B , F. C ilklns , who had
for a long limn been in the employ cf
the Union Pacific , was taken very
sick while attending to his duties.
When the train had reached Fremont ,
ho was ao very bad that ho could gene
no further , and ho was taken off and
curiod to tha European hotel. A
physician was summoned , bat in splto
of the physician's skill and the excel
lent treatment ho had received at the
hands of Mr French , the proprietor of
the hotel , ho died Saturday ovonii g
The headquarters of the Union Pacilu
were notified of his death , and orders
worn awaited for n disposition of the
body , they believing that a nun who
had so long nud f lithfully served thorn
would bo given u decent burial. You
can well imagine the eurprlsj and In
dignation of our citizens when Mr
Reynwlds , the iwunt at tTroraont , was
ordered to tain tlio body over to the
county.
Mr. Tnra , Giipcnnter dent of the
oor , nt ones made arrangements to
ako cliariio of the bodv. und was in
10 act of carrying it i If to the potters'
eld when novornl tram men appeared
n the econo , and with tears in thiir
pea declared that r.o gnat en outrage
lould not bo perpetrated , nnd gave
rdora to huvo the body decently in-
cirid. The funeral ocrvicea will take
lace to-day at I > o'clock p. m.
Thin order IB anid to have been

No man who Iiaj any fooling for

"This is the moat coimopolitan citj

man of cxporlo > ico.
" 1 hove kept hotels in seaoral eastern

In other cities , and have .conducted
the room-renting business In this cit ]
mart ) thaa ton years , and I find tha
the people of StuFraucltco uro mon
inclined to 'live out * than to 'keoj
house , ' and that this 'transient * styli
of living is more prevalent hero thai
In any other city by about fif 7 pe
cent.
cent."Of couno there is a cause ? " querio <
the reporter.
"Itistholadio " ! the
! "r3piad geu
tlaman , cynically , "fhoy yruh ti
evade house duties. By living ii

dquT.d rt nndu of livicg is mainl
owiug to the wny the people cf thi
city were brought up. Many cr.m
hero aa transients , rnd put up at th
hotels nnd lodgirg-homos , cxpeotin
to return cnit as coon as they mad
th.'ir f irtunoa , Thty still live in tha
style though they h vo merged thcui
sflvca into permanent ronldanta. An
this is how the spirit of rcstloisnce
was implanted and has grown into
habit "
"About what per tent of our popi
lation live In that indolent way ! "
"Wo can best got at that by
ures , " said the practical Gentleman.
"Thero are about 1,100 lodging
houses in the city that is homes
kept by women who make It their reg
ular business , and "
"Aro they all kept by wonun ? "
interrupted the reporter.
"Of the 1.1CO I do not believe
twenty < f thtm are kop' ' by mon , nnd
nearly every ono of there women are
widows , are living single , " explained
the gentleman , anticipating ilu re
porter s uoxtquottion.
CALCULATING TUB NUMIIEK
' Well , " continued the man f ex-
pstionco , "theso 1100 houses will
hold from 12 to 20 people , or nn average -
ago of 1G. This will give 17 GOO pee
plo. Phoro ore about 3,100 private
boarding and lodging houses , holding
from two to six , with an average of
three to each. This would give
9,000. "
"Aro they kept by ladies ? " eagerly
asked the reporter.
"Oh , yes ; all of theaa leases are
made out in their names , and so far
as our buoinena is concerned , ther ap-
poir to bo the 'men of the houso. '
Tnero is not one iustancj in f fty
where wo deal with n man in lodging
or boarding house matters. Of cjutto
a great uiiny of the women are mar-
riyd , bat their husbir.da cut no figure
in business relations with 113. Then
ihcre are four hundred hotels , with ,
wj will say , nn average capacity of fifty
each , and i'i ' this is included tne larg-
CHt and the smallest. Many of thorn
ire rasrnly largc-sizad lodging houscu.

speaker , as ho arose to receive a
stylish dressed lady , who wore an elegant -

HOTEL 1IAI1ITUES.
The reporter visited several of the
leading hotels and fouud that about
40 or 50 per cent of their guests wceo
citizsns of the city. "You eoe , " said
the clerk of many years' experience ,
"within the past few years hotel r.o-
commodations have increased to such
an extent that families can get the
con f jrts of n home ia a hotel at much
cheaper rates than by housekeeping
Hero they have aervanto to wait upon
them , and tncy escape the troubled of
hoosekeeping , and that is a great item
with the ladies , " said the gentleman ,
with a smlo , an if ho know hov it
WHS. "Yet , n great mai.y of our rg
uUr customois are Irreguln * . That
'
Boems to be 'a contradiction , but it
i.i a fact They will get tired and try
housekeeping for a while ; but after a
time they como back. Wo always
count upon their roturi.iog. It ia tl'h
class of peop'o ' of changeable mlnda ,
irregular hiblto : nnd restless dl&poai-
tlocs that are our best customers and
constitute what is called hotel lub-
i uta. They try lodging houses and
eat at rcstaurr.nts ; then they go to
boarding houses , and next to private
housi'p , and then housekeeping ; but
they return at last. A great many
