Mr. Callnway has gone to Chicago with
President Adams' party. It is taid that
thu vi il of these olliciuls has an import
ant .signification in connection with some
troubles which remain to be adjusted.
Upon leaving Chicago , Mr. Adams may
return to Omaha.

J. M. Hannaford , trallic nianagcrof the

Yesterday morning , the U. P.
rolled in to the seventh street
viaduct the new pile driver which
it has just taken from tlio shops. It re
quires a water tender and two cars , bo-
Hides the engine which draws it from
place to place. It is of the most recent
improvement , the ladder reaching over
and lying upon the second car when not
in use. The cab containing tlio engine
and boiler is fixed upon a revolving
table , which may bo turned by means of
cogs in any direction. The first work
of this new machine will bo done on the
viiuluct mentioned , which will help to ex
pedite tlm work of removing the pres
ent structure and substituting for it a
structure which will span the street. The
other pile driver with which operations
were commenced , is now working upon
the street proper , but it is only a relic
compared with the new machine above
referred to.
Yesterday morning the dummy train
under Charley Muck brought into the Un
ion Pacific depot a special car of the Han
nibal & St. Joe named "Lyeoming. " The
latter contained A. K. Ton/aim , one of
the officers of the road mentioned , and
president of the Chicago , Bur
lington it Northern , together with
another railroad gentleman from
the north. The car had come up irom
St. .Joe yesterday morning and was met
at the Blull's by the dummy. Mr. Toux-
ulin and his friend jumped into a coupe
and wcro driven hastily up
town where they spent some time
in consultation with the managements of
both the Union Pacific and B. & M. They
loft last evening over the former road
for the west.
Thos. McCarthy , t"o accomplished
train dispatcher of the bridge division of
the Union Pacific , bus been granted a
leave of absence for two weeks , which he
well deserves for rest and recuperation ,
after the exacting and laborious labor of
this busy summer. During his absence ,
his place will bo filled by D. Black , the
night operator in the same olllce.
Train No. 3 for the east did not arrive
on thissidoof the river yesterday morning
until 1115 : , nearly an hour behind time.
It was here tilled up with passengers and.
four extra cars were added. Two of
these are going out to Valley and the
other two were sent to Grand Island , to
accommodate the increased travel which
is expected at these points during the
next two days.
Yesterday mornings overland pasengor
train on the Union Pacific was thirty
minutes late. On board was Baron
Sohcller anil party , who have been in
this country for nearly a your , during
which time they huvo visited nearly
every point of interest on the continent.
They wet o on their way to New York ,
whence they leave for Germany.
The Missouri Pacific did not leave yes-
terdav morning until aboutthirty [ minutes
f tar train time. It was delayed by a f relent
which stood on the truck in front and
did not allow it to enter the depot until
but a few minutes before the train pulled
out of the dopot. _

The annual report of the Omaha board
of trade was issued yesterday. President
Max Meyer , In his annual address , calls
attention to the gratifying increase of the
commerce of Omaha and the rapid
growth in population which lias taken
place , and suggests thnt as there has been
u corresponding inerciibo in the number
of Omaha jobbing-houses and imuutfnc-
hirer * , who will doubtless become vnluu-
ble members of the board us soon us its
importance is brought to their notice ,
each member should exert his inllucnco
to induce every jobber and manufacturer
to acquire membership in the board.
The necessity of a direct line of railroad
from Omaha up the Klkhorn , with
branches into the northern part of the
btuto was brought before the board and
tjia desirability of Mich u road controlled
by homo capital urged upon their consid
eration.

11.ill ' car loads. The Burlington roads
show even a more remarkable increase of
business. The freight tonnage received
by this road for the year ending June ! ! 0 ,

VANKTON WANTS TIIM O. At X. AV.
Visit of tlio Secretary of Its Hoard or
Trailo to Oninlia.
Secretary Nattinger , of tlio Omaha
board of trade , was engaged yesterday
in introducing to a number of our cit-
i/.cns Mr , S. 11. Teller , secretary of the
board of trade of Yankton , Dak. Mr.
Teller is anxious to know what Omaha
proposes to do with reference tlio building
of the Omaha & Northwestern road. He
says the people of his city would like to
have it reach them and stand ready to give
to the cnterpri.se almost any reasonable
assistance that may be required. He
claims , however , that this does not mean
bonds , because tlio recent enactments of
congress prohibits them from further
going Into debt by the issuance of bonds
to railroads , The assistance , therefore ,
which the people of Yankton and vicin
ity can give will bo of nriyato nature ,
but Mr. Teller is of opinion that it will
bo found reasonable and satisfactory in
the event of its being decided to build tlio
road ,
Mr Nattinger introduced Mr. Teller
to nearly alt the loading men who are
interested in the proposed railway , un'd
these wore highly pleased 'with the dis
position of the Yankton merchants.
\Vnnt to "Kvon U | > " AVntjes ,
There is some dissatisfaction exper
ienced among tlio inspectors of public
works in this city because of the prefer
ence which has been given one of their
number by raising ids wages to 125 per
month , while the salary of the others are
only 1100 nor month , They claim that
while the inspector in question is worthy
of the advance , being u skilled mechanic ,
ho \ * in no way more worthy than they
and accordingly they seem dotenuinou
ulso to have their wages equalized ,

The way in which n certain thrco-cont
dally maintain' ) its street sales is well
illustrated by the experience which a
young man of tins city had near the cor
ner of Fifteenth and Fnrniun streets last
night. Ho was passing tlio locality
named , when a newsboy , with a number
of the three-cent papers under his arm ,
stepped up ami said to him. "Mister , 1
can't hell those papers , and if you'll buy
one of Ihpin I'll glvo It to you for n cent.
I'm stuck. " The young , man was about
to go down In III- * jeans for the neecs nry
eaMi , when newsboy No. 2 stepped
up , and said : "If jou won't buy
that boy's paper I'll give you
onu for nothing.1 This rather sNggoroil
the young man. but nnvious to see what
turn : illulr < were going to take , he re
turned the paper to No. 1 and accepted
the paper of No. 2. Newsboy No. 1 was
nonplused for u moment , but quickly
rallied and coining up to the young man
he oll'ored to give him two papers if ho
would return the one paper to No. ' ' . i'he
transfer was quickly made and the gentle
man found himself in possession of two
papers. Newsboy No. 2 , however , WHS
not to bo outdone , and pulling out three
papers , said , " ( jive < lem two papers back
to dat feller and I'llgivc you ucsutrcu pa
pers. " Again a transfer was made and this
time the young man found himself in pos
session of three papers. Newsboy No. 1
was clearly outgeneraled and retired in
disgust , threatening to lick Ills rival at
the first opportunity. This story may
sound strange , but it is strictly true and
can be vouched for by several eve-wit
nesses.
There is a gentleman in this city , who ,
in point of presence of mind and ingenu
ity , has few equals in Omaha , or for that
matter , in any other city. These traits
he displays in his love affairs ns well as
in bifeinccs matters. He is much smitten
with a damsel who lives well ,
say in North Omaha and she in turn
reciprocates. There is another young
man who is deeply in love with the lady ,
but , it must be confessed , she does not
listen to iiis wooing with any degree of
favor. The gentleman first mentioned ,
who. for convenience , may be culled
Smith , is in the habit ofistin < r his luiiy
love uooiit throe evenings in the wed ; .
Ho is a first class fellow , and has only
one fault , and that is , he will once in a
while indulge a little too treely in tlio
beverage that inebriates. The other even
ing he called upon the young lady
and found that the obnoxious rival was
there before him. Smith carefully took
oil his coat and hat , placed them on the
rack and was about to go into the parlor
when the young lady who had come out
to receive him whispered in his ear :
"That horrid Mr. , is in there. 1
wish i knew some way of getting rid of
him. " Smith needed no more encour
agement and pulling his slouch hat over
Ins eyes he staggered into the parlov , to
all appearances , thoroughly intoxicated ,
muttering. "I'll fix him. " Ho walked
up to Ids rival and with maudlin empha
sis , ejaculated , " ( Jet out of here. I don't
want you around. " The young man re
fused to move b'lt gu/.ed in blank
astonishment at Smith. The latter ap
peared to he greatly incensed at his rival s
refusing to leave 'the house , and finally
grabbing him by the coat collar rushed
him out through the hull , and opening
the front door pitched him into the dark
ness. The untortunalo lover , who knew
Smith s weakness for liquor , took in the
situation after a moment's thought.
Smith , ho concluded , was lighting , ugly
drunk , and must not be interfered with.
Otherwise there would be a fight in the
house , which might compromise the
n.inio of the young lady whom he so
fondly adored. Ho concluded , therefore ,
to so quietly away and leave Smith in
possession of the lield. He did so , and to
this day , probably , he has never discov
ered the true situation of affairs.
' 'I don't know why it is , " said a pass
enger on the Twentieth fctrect line , "but
it is nevertheless a fact , that the drivers
of these cars , in some respects seem to
lorgot what they are appointed for. ' 1 hey
never look up or down , a street when
their cars cross to see whether or not
people are making haste to goton board.
They simply drive alirad , looking only
along the track. As a consequence num
bers of people arc left behind ,
especially ladies , who can not
run and shout and make a show of them
selves in an attempt to attract a driver's
attention. Day after day I have noticed
this negligence , and 1 have myself , a
dozen tunes , watched when 1 did not
want to ride , see other people vainly at
tempt to induce a driver to turn his
hcnu. All this is a loss to the conip.iny
and inconvenience to the public. So
much HO , indeed , that the next time it
occurs , 1 propose to report the negligent
driver to the company. "

Some time ago the directions of Mr.
William Waynick , a typographical artist
In one of tlio job offices of this city , wore
s tillered to cling around the pcrnon of
Miss Nellie K. Hall , who resided at 111 ! )
Chicago street. Waynick resided at the
same place.
MKs Hull , who was n book agent , and
Waynick , an exponent of the "art preser
vative of all arts , " soon made up their
jiiinds to enter n matrimonial alliance , in
which both might lead a congenial lite
and still further advance the interests
which each represented.
For a time the alliance lived in har
mony and the happiness of the members
was about as complete ns mortals bo con
stituted could tlobiio.
Hut a now attraction appeared upon
the scene. It was n young woman named
Cussidy. She came or purported to have
come from Minneapolis. She mot Way-
niok. She met him hovoral times , and
according , as who met him Mrs. Wuyniek
missed him. The occasion of the missing
became more frequent and finally Mrs.
Waynlok began to investigate. She
learned of the appearance of the Cassldy
girl , but she learned of it too lute , The
next day her husband disappeared , and
witli him , it is alleged , the lady also
made herself scarce. Where they have
gone Mrs. Wnyniok docs notknow.but her
presumption is thnt the guilty pair huvo
bkjpped to Minneapolis , Mrs. Waynick
is intensely wrought up over the mutter ,
but at the present time she docs not know
what to do , except that fchn has made up
her mind to ferret out her deceiving lord
if it takes all her money to do it.

Lieutenant Heed , inspector of rifle
practice for tlio Division of Missouri , was
in the city yesterday having come hero
from Kansas. Wlion questioned by a re
porter for the Br.K us | tn tlio chances of
Omaha [ securing the dhision competit
ion next j'ear , ho said :
"Tho situation is just this : Next j'ear
tlio division firing will have to bo hold in
one of five places the Department
of Texas , Department of Missouri , De
partment of Platte , Department of Da
kota , or in Chicago , Now in the De
partment of Texas , there is no suitable
place or range for holding the competi
tion In the Departments of Missouri
and Dakota , it will bn impossible to hold
the shooting , because each has had the
competition firing for the la t twoyouix.
In Chicago the government owns no land
large enough for a range. "
"It would seem then Hint the Depart
ment of the 1'lutto would secure the
honor ? "
" \ \ ell , 1 won't say anything , but you
can draw your own conclusions. "
"Will tin1 range at Bellevno bo large
enough to aecomodalc all the soldiers
who will take part in thoeompetitioiiY"
"Amply large enough. It is one of vlio
llne.st pieces ot land In the country for
that purpose. 1 am delighted with it.
When one considers that in Mav lum not
a single improvement had been made on
the land , the changes that huvo been
brought about are wonderlul. Colonel
Henry , with his characteristic energy , is
going ahead and making still further
improvements , in unti.ipution of next
year's shooting. "
The fact that tlm department of the
Platte is to .secure the division competi
tion next year is one of great importance
and interest to Omaha. This division
competition is a great annual event in
western army circles , and will attract to
Omaha .soldiers from all oycr this section
of the West.

An autopsy , made in St. Louis with the
consent of the deceased's relatives ,
failed to reveal anything but a general
disordered condition of the brain. Tlio

rectly due to a fall from his bicycle which
he received last summer.
