"Oh , some days I take in as high as $3 ,
but usually I average about $10 a week.
I earn more money on shines than Icould
at anything else. Sometimes people tell
mo I am too large a boy to shine shoes ,
but boys don't know how to shine a shoo
until he gels to bo about my age. It takes
lots of practice before you can put on a
shine like that , " at the same time tap
ping the bottom of the BKIman's : .shoo to
notify him that ho was ready for the
other shoe. "You sec , these kids , " he
continued , as he brushed the dust oll'lho
bottoms of the pants , "git blackin1 on a
man's ' uppers and they don't like it , and
their shine only lasts an hour or so , while
that shine of mine will last you all day
to-morrow , if you ain't too particular.

kind of blacKln * to use. they take any
kind a dealer wants to give them andre

where I Kin git blaekin' ami I always use
the same kind. Yon sco a good sinner
can git a big trade if ho only treats his
customers right. If 1 see a man watch
ing me shine I put in lots of good licks
and lot him see I know my biz and 1 am
sure to catch him in a day or so , at the
most. That's how I caught you. You
was talking to that man on Saturday
while I was shining him and I saw you
was watching mo.sol 'did him tip brown *

"Quite a number of ladles and gentle
men from Omaha were over to the beach
last night , " remarked a gentleman who
has considerable faith in the future of
Lake Manawa and Manhattan beach , tea
a BEE man yesterday morning , in the
postolliec. "Mr. O. P. McCarthy , of the
Union Pacific headquarters , and several
other gentlemen of the Union Pacilic ,
were among the party , " lie continued ,
"and. Mr. McCarthy knows what a good
beach and line bathing is , as he has been
brought up in a neighborhood where
there were many such places. Ho said
to me last night , that it was a pleasant
surprise to him to find such a fine place
in Ibis western country , and ho hoped
improvements would bo made that would
bit the cause of drawing pcoplo from a
long distance next season , lln said wo
had a great place if we'd only push it to
public notice. If wo could only got a
railroad running down there it would no
doubt bo a paying investment. "
11 is understood that plans are being
seriously contemplated for extending a
railway track to the lake , and that the
Union Paoifio will build it and run trains.
Mr. W. II. Burns , of tlio Union Pacilic ,
has been very much pleased with the
lake , and on Saturday he took hoveral of
the other promincnts down to look it
over. Tlio result of the conference and
inspection is , of course , yet to bo re

"A gentleman well known hero as an

in one of the banking Institutions of this

IjonjT Hours ,
The crow of the day dummy train have
just reason to complain of the number of
hours they have to stay on duly. They
go on duty nt 7 o'clock in the morning ,
and go oil' about 0 o'clock. This is bad
enough , but frequently tlio hours are
lengthened by delays caused by using the
dummy engine lor switching , La tnglit ! ,
for .instance , instead of the dummy train
leaving Omaha for Council IHuffe at 8.15.
the engine was used for switching until
nearly l ) o'clock , so that the dummy did
not reach this side until after I ) o'clock ,
and then liaii to return. The yards
on the Omaha side arc so
crowded that it causes delays , and
there seems a lack of switch
engines besides. On the Council Hind's
siilo there is plenty of room , which could
"
be used for yards" ana with : i supply of
switcli engines , it .vccms that the matter
could bo arranged so as to let the boys
have shorter hours. The annoyance to
passengers , who are often delayed on the
evening run and on the 1 1 o'clock dummy
run. is great al o , and causes many com
plaints. There is danger , too , in keep
ing men on duty so long. Overworked.
they cannot perform the best service , and
accidents are more liable to occur.

CALICO.
Why It llns Gone Out of Popularity
ItH New Form , Sateen.
The calico made years ago , says the
trade journal..Fiber and Fabric , would
wear twice as long without washing as
the modern calico. More substance in
actual fibre is what is wanted to regain
popularity. Another icason is the low
price that woo ! has ruled at for several
years past , onubling our manufacturers
to make woolen dress goods at a very
low ligurc , and these goods do not re
quire washing. Some may think they
absorb just us much dirt without show
ing it , but they do not. Cotton warp
goods with combed wool tilling can now
be sold almost as cheap us calico used to
be sold for. But let elean wool again
run up to § 1 and over and calico would
again be more in dcntand. It might be
in its form and under , thcf more fascinat
ing name of sateen , which is but thu same
fabric with the sumo Unaferial and pro
cess of printing , onlyit ; is- wove on three ,
four , or live harness , | Whivh enables the
manufacturer to miiko i < whut wo call a
warp or satin face. Satcpn is.in weaving
parlance , "quarter 'satin" ' botli tlic c
fabrics take their 11:11110 : from thu method
or manner of weaving. Satin ia wove on
sixteen harness , with fiftefnn threads up
every time a filling pick is thrown in ;
while sateen i.s wove on four harness ,
usually with three wiirn/throuds up every
time a lilling pick cods , in' ' All observers
will have noticed that sa'tin will not hold
dust , and will repel all kinds of dirt , al
though silk in othrir" weaves , such as
gros-gruins , will catch and hold , not only
dust , but any foreign substance. Cotton
docs not have the repelling power of
silk , because it i.s not so lustrous , but is a
quick absorber of moisture , and has an
oeual alliuity for dirt.

New York Graphic : "Ono July night , "
continued the tall man , " 1 had my wheat
till stacked ready for thrashing , and
went to bed feeling as rich us if I owned
tlie country. Abontmidnight , as near as
1 can recollect , 1 heard a clap ot thunder ,
and then the house begun to rock like a
willow tree. Then everything was quiet
for a little while , and I went to sleep.
Early the next morning my wife got up
and looked out of the window.
" 'John , said she , 'where on curtli is

wasn't a remnant of my barn. My barn
yard was gone , the horse , the cows , and
even the pigs were gone. I got dressed
and walked out doors. The place was
changed , stranger changed in a single
night. My house suttinp in a garden by
tlio side of a creek. There was a now
barn in the yard , some red cows mine
weio white ; some black pigs mine were
spotted ; and instead of wheat there was
the alllirdest stack of cornstalks yon
over looked at. I thought at first I was
dreaming , and asked my wife to kick me ,
but I wasn't. About breakfast time somu
neighbors came in and asked where Mr.
Jones was. I never heard of him.
" 'Ho used to live hero,1 they said. 'Ho
lived hero last night. '
"Then I told them of the crash and the
rocking , and they said I must huva been
struck by a tornado. I asked where I
was , nnd tlioy said I was In Izard comity ,
whioh was fifty miles south of where 1
wont to bed. Sure enough , they were
right , The strongest part of it was , the
house wasn't hurt a bit. The roof even
didn't leak. Thu neighbors said it was
a visitation of Providence , and tlio piano

ened water , and doze oft' like a babe ,
under the impression that it was a bonu
h'clo sedative.
