Ono of the btggest and best improvements
to ( Omaha's rapid growth and substantial
prosperity Is the Immense slaughter hocso of
George II , Hammond & Co. , opened for oper
ations last Saturday , nt the union stockyards.
It has long bcon ft cherished desire of the en
terprising men hero to liavo a market for live
stock established nt this city , but their efforts
In that direction were not , it seems , satisfac
torily successful until arrangements were
effected with Mr. Hammond to t ko hold of
the matter. A tmall pork-packlnp establish
ment had bocn started , but when ha stopped
In It was soon demonstrated that
his ideas pictured n much different
institution , nnd work was ntonco commenced ,
which when completed had consumed an out-
luy of 8175.COO , but the result gratifies nil who
are interested and opens a new era in the importance
portanco nnd permanency of Omnhn as n com' '
u.orclnl center. But it is not necessary In the
purposes of this article to dwell nt further
length upon these features , because they have
already been duly recognized by the BEE ,
which stands ready nt all times to assist In
advancing the beat Interests of tha city and
state.
Last Saturday morning the now slaughter
hou'o was opened for business , and before
Saturday night ono hundred bend of baoves
had been knocked down , dressed , nnd their
carcasses hung owny in excellently arranged
apartments , to cool , A reporter for the BKK
was permitted to visit the phce Sat
urday altarnoon and la able to present a few
facts concerning it that may not prove unin-
intercstlng to tbe reader. To commence with ,
n largo red colored building , covering nn acre
uf ground , 02x101 ! foot in size , and raising
to n hlgbth of two nnd a Half stories nbovo a
basement h presented to view. Around the
spot in all directions arises green covered hills
that are fast becoming dotted with
new houses nnd other evidences of domestic
lmprovomentsindicating that at no fardistant
day the llttlo suburb of South Omaha will boone
ono of the most interesting points about the
city. Col. Creighton said to tha repor
ter that ho would not feel satisfied
until three or four such slaughter houses as
the ono now there , had been erected and tup-
plied with enough businoso to keep them run
ning the year round. But this is getting
away from the principal subject In hand.
Under the directions nnd kind attentions of
Mr. McShane , every feature of the great es
tablishment , from top to bottom , and nil
around was soon to excellent advantage. It
must bo understood that each department Is
thoroughly supplied with all the necessary ap
pliances for carrying on in the most modern
and model manner the work of such aa insti
tution. Take the beef-killing Industry , for
Instance , and that is really the main item to
bo considered uuw , when you comprehend
tha capacity required for handling 003 ani-
malu n day , why , there is nothing small about
it. The cittlo aru first driven up throug
a long chuteinto pens within
the baildlng that will hold about fifty head.
From these pens eight at a time nro selected
and lun Into box stalls , each of which is just
largo enough to hold an animal so that It can
neither lay down nor turn around , nnd na the
brute goes in a strongly made door is closed
and securely fastened behind it. Then com
mences the procass of slaughter , and to watch
tis brings to your mind thoughts of cruelty
that would seem to almost set your appetite
against all desires fcr over again hankering
after a juicy , tender staak or fancy palatoabk
roast. But the men who paddle in blond end
play with bones , give no time to thoughts ol
such a melancholy nature , Standing nbovo
Iho ill fated animal , with gleams of apparent
delight in tha confidence of his own skill as
a butcher , a tnll , slitn young
follow man , quidily elevatei his ox , then with
swift force lets it descend with a well directed
force that strikes the steer or heifer , as the
case may bo , directly between and a little be
low the connecting joints of the horns , which
causes it to drop instantly. Bv moans of pul
leys a door is raised , a manacle attached to
one hind lep of the quivering brute , and it is
drawn out into the larger main ball , whore
tha procese of dressing commences. The same
young man who knocks down also "sticks'
nnd cuts elf the head. Then the carcas passei
to other hands who do the skinning. An
other force takes cut the entrails , still another
cuts the carcas in halves , then after aeinj
weighed it ia spirited away on n system o.
pulleys that glide over iron tracks Into the cool
ing room. This is kept nt a temperature
of 38 ° and hero the meat ia allowed to banf
forty-eight hours , From there it gees Into
refrigerator cars nnd is shipped to tha eastern
market. Every particle of the animal ia
utilized , oven to the blocd , which , after dry
ing out becomes hard enough and is madeintc
buttons. Imagine that at ono lima the f atoy
button on ycur dross or coat was once the lift
substance of a short-horn or Jersey. The
hides go into the cellar basement , where the ;
ara washed clean and salted down. The hoof
and horns are boiled and go to make combs

A LOVE SDK LOON ,
JCho SarntogR Sunday Echool Super
intendent Invited to
tlio Country ,
The residents of Saratoga precinct , just
orth of town , arc considerably excited overlie
lie discovery that n prominent society man
tiero waa engaged in discreditable correspon-
enco with a child of twelve years. Louis
jlttlefiold is iupertntcndent of the Saratoga
Sunday school. Ho has a largo number of
hildron under his charge. Hia position ens
iles him to wield considerable influence over
ho young mcmbcra of the ilcck. That ho has
used his position for base motives ia shown by
orrcapondenco recently discovered.
Littlefield hoi been a regular visitor to the
ostdoncj of a prominent family in the nolgh-
jorhocd of the fcliool , He was on terms of
ntimncy with ( ha parents , nnd particularly
o with their daughter , a mere child. Ho bad
requently sent her notes , but the parents
rniit no attention to it , thinking of uourio ,
hat they related to Sunday school matters.
Jut there was more than biblical truths and
> iety In these billet douxj in fact Louis was
lourinp ' 'lovo" into the willing ear of his
oung pupil , for what purpose the reader can
udgo. Last week the mother discovered her
hllil writing nn answer to ono of Louis' lovo-
Ick lottora. Questioned about his attentions
ho child confessed and turned over the cor-
espondanco The horrified mother promptly
onfrontcd Littlefield and persuaded him with
revolver to give up the notes written by her
hild. Tbo father was nearly distracted
when he was told these facts and read the lot-
era of Littlofield , nnd waa only restrained
rom doing violence by the belief that the law
ould roach him. This , however , could _ note
> o done as the letters would not justify crimi
nal proceedings , and the father , na a last re-
art , ordered LIttlefiold to leave the neighbor-
load or take the consequences. The residents
if the neighbothopd are greatly IncensoJ and
vill give substantial aid to the offended fnmi-
yt unless Littlefield makes himself scarce
vithin forty-eight hours.
The following is taken from one of n batch
f lottora written by JLittlefield , with nil the
mphasii attached :
1 shall iwver forgft the first ono you gave
lie "New Years , " It waa the sweetest kiss
ever received from any one , then J loicd you

THE OTHER SIDE MAHES A TALK.
To the Editor of the BEE.
An article with the above caption in Satur
day's BEE seems to indicate quite n "tempest
n a tea-pot" in this burg , though I was to-
ally unaware of it till late Saturday evening ,
when I saw tha article , Aeiclo from the silly
eve letter ( and was ever ono written that waa
not silly to all but the two interested ) , the
achieved partioa must In juslics bear a portion
of the burden ,
Tha ' 'horrified " mother of Iho "prominent
Family " was at least cognizant of whatever
ntimacy existed , There WAS no surreptitious
visiting at unseemly hours when tbo "horrl-
iod" mother was cfl guard. Indeed there
waa a kind oE dealing in "futures , " the con
summation to take place some years ahead.
This particular Sunday school superintend
ent , like too many others , boa faults , chief
of which Ia to make my business a base cf
supplies to inculcate dogmas and doctrines
which I deem erroneous.
Ho has , however , enough of the instincts of
a gentleman to never enter a private bouse a
second time whore he is obviously and unmis
takably not wanted. The fact that he visited
thia "prominent family" for a considerable
time would imply that ho waa not seriously
objectionable.
The "distracted" father may thank his
start that he "withheld violence. " It is al
ways best to do that until he finds how much
of the trouble Is on bis tide of the road ,
and how imioh on mine , when violence oi
any sort will bo necessary. As to ordering
off , or making himself scarce , " revolvers , etc.
Such talk is cheap , and more than that , it is
foolish and reprehensible. Ordering off halts
at the highway , and only embraces one's pri
vate enclosure- this may or may not be news
to any olficioua "nelghbora. " Individual
Inw-makersare an unknown quantitv in this
countiy whftteaer they may bo in Rhineland ,
The writer of this did some fighting years
ago to extend personal liberty to foreigners as
well as natives blilck and white , and ia too
old now to have any abridgement to himeel'
or any claiming hia protection. Abuse o
liberty will nut 1)3 countenanced , but inside
the pale of law and among my own I alone
will itsuo edicts of banishment. Yours , etc ,

Half A Million Dollari , Backed
Upwith A Surplus nnd
Undivided 1'roflt of
$1QO,000 More.
Omaha ontorprlao b fully demonstrated
iy this move of the First National Bank
f thla city. The largo and rapidly In-
reusing amount of bualneaa which thia
ank ( the oldest ia thla city ) has done
taring the past year , has necessitated
hia move ; the diroatnra realizing this
act petitioned congresj to pics a special
act. smotioning rhla Incroajo of capital ,
and in January the bil vai paesod an-
.horlztng . them to Increase their capital
'rom $200,000 to § 2,000,000.
And availing themselves of ibis act the
directors at their laat mooting increased
ho capital ntcck to a half a million of
dollars.
The bank now onjoya the distinction
of having the largest cipital of any t.i-
; lonal back between Chicago and the
Pacific coast.
The subscribe ra to increase the capital

nent citizenship end activity In all rcat-

; ho community.
The bank ia also an United States de
pository nnd decs a general banking bcsl-
iesa in all its varied detalle.
Wo bespeak for the First National a
oug life and a large Increase to their al
ready largo buslnes ? , which we feel as
sured will ba well deserved.
This bank waa organized and Incor
porated In 18G3 , and was an outgrowth
of the old banklns firmof Kountza Bros. ,
who started up hero In Omaha In 1857.
It is the oldest bank in the city and is
recognized with favor in all prominent
monetary markets of the country.
It Is just such wonderfully prosperous
Institutions oa the "First National" that
has helped push Oraaba far ahead of her
sister cities both M to population and
substantial impiovcmeuts which are con
tinually advancing upward nnd onward
nnd has made Omaha the Queen City of
the groit northwest.
