eight story bullding.thu erection of whicl
will begin next spring , and tin
cost of which will bo no

Direct to thu alley north. When erected
Mr. Calm's building will doubtless causi

Monday night , when the dummy was
coming to this city from the Hind's , aftei
having made connection with the eastern

somnolent passenger with a long beard
and fronted dross , who. when ho asked
for his faro , milled out his watch and of
fered it to the conductor. The latter did
not have time to parley with the traveloi
and accordingly went through his train
and took up the fares of the other pas
sctigcrs. Uu then returned to tin
stranger again and naked for hit
faro , and was again offered the
watch , a gold timepiece valued at about
$150. This , of course , could not bo taktm ,

Jl\ THE CtVJt LOAD.
Some lllff MIclilKon Apples Scut to nr
Oninlin House.
Brnncli & ( 'o. , the commission mcr
chants nt 12th and Farnam streets , wen
to-day unloading the third car ot Mich
igan apples , there being about twentj
more cars to follow. Mr. Low Pi.iloVi
Branch & Co.'s buyer , has been in Mich
igan for nuout n month buying up the
choicest in the state. The crop in Mich
igan this year is much larger in some
parts than others , while In other districts ,
where there was an abundance last year ,
none at all can be had now. There arc
no New York apples this year , which has
brought a drove of eastern buyers out to
Michigan. In Missouri the crop is much
smaller than last year which , of course ,
will place Michigan fruit at a premium
very soon. Branch & Co. , who are mak
ing a specialty of Michigan apples and
apples of their own packing , are paying
twenty- live cents a barrel moro than
others for the privilege of selecting the
fruit , and the apples unloaded to-day
hhow Mr. Hixley's good judgment , for a
liner lot of apples of all kinds cannot bo
seen anywhere. There were Hussots ,
Steel Hcds. Baldwins , Greenings , Bell
( lowers , Kings , Mammoth Tulpaliockins ,
sometimes called Fallawatcrs , Pippins ,
Scek-no-further , Spit/.onbcrgs , Pctinocks ,
nnd many others. No other house In
Omaha can hope to compete with this
ilrm. for their stock is not only the larg
est , but it is also the very best.
Miscellaneous packing of apples is the
one great obstacle. A man wno buys a
ear load or n few barrels wants to feel a
reasonably assurance that the fruit and
the packing are "what they seem. " and
that when he has opened ono ban el of a
car he knows what the apples are , tlio
salesman being able to guarantee that
every other barrel picked at random will
show up "just the same. " To meet this
point they .are purchasing their winter
apples well soli-eted in the orchards
in Michigan , and are having them packed
by experienced men. Consumers are not
supplied trom this house , who only deal
with retail dealers , who can bo accom
modated in cither barrels or car load
lots.

The oyster department of Branch &Co.
is now in charge of MrV. \ . II. MeLaugh-
lin , who has had twenty years experience
in the handling of oysters. Standards ,
Selects and Extra Selects arc packed
with care , making a specialty of the
Horticslioo brand of salt sea oysters
which are shipped to them in bulk. By
doing their own packing express charges
are saved on the great amount of water
that is always put into canned good" ,
thereby enabling Branch te Co. to ( jnoto
lower prices than others. That this house
do their own ( lacking is siillielent guar
antee to the trade that the troods are tlio
best on the market for they have the rep
utation of handling only that kind of
stock. This house also hus men out in
the state buying up potatoes in car load
lets and are doing a rushing business in
this line , selling largely on the track.
Mr. J. M. Forward is loretnan and sales
man of the packing department during
Mr. PijJoy s absence. But enough has
been said , Uraneh & Co. arc the leaders
and their three .specialties will enable
them to hold their supremacy for years

Well and truly may Enrobe bo tlcscribcd
as breaking down nndorllhft weight of her
armor , says thoLondoiSTtiograpli. The
collective aggregate ofinrftiy nnd navy
estimates of her fire 'treat powers
amounted last year to Jiliao.OCO.OW. At
the head of the list stobd Uns ia , with
17,000,000 charged to hoi ? credit , whllo
Franco stood second with 81,000,000.
( treat llrituiu comes next witli JKW.000,000 , ,
for which she gets a much mnaller return
than an expenditure of i.8UOQO,000 con
fers upon Germany , and of .C14OCO,000 ,
upon tlio Austrian empire. Wo will not
ask what the live great European powers
might do with the vast- annual revenue
which they now spend in this way , or
what might bo effected by the prodigious
masses of men in the prime of llfo who
now follow the tlriim or handle
the marlinspike , were they to devote
their energies to useful and productive
labor. One precnant illustration maybe
bo adduced to show what the cost of in
surance iiL'ainst foreign attack or do
mestic disturbance means to the most
fortunately .situated , the wealthiest and
most civili/.cd continent in the world ,
The United States as a powerful and pro
gressive community can not bo surpassed ,
and they boast a nopulation which will
very soon bo double that of ( Jreat Britain
and Ireland. Their lucky geographical
position enables them , however , to bo
satisfied with a standing army never ex
ceeding oOOJJ ( men , and sometimes falls
considerably short of that number. The
navy , again , is meiely nominal , nnd is
far surpassed in strength by that of the
nimv republic of Chili. The consequence
is that within less than a quarter of a
century they have been able to reduce
their national debt the offspring of their
stupendous civil war from over
WO,000,000 in 18(15 ( to less than
? lyOJ,000,000 in Ib80. The annual charge
for thu American army and navy
combined amounts to about twelve
million pounds.Had it been possible
for Great Britain to spend no more upon
her lighting resources during the last
forty years , and to devote twenty mil
lions annually to reducing her national
debt , it would have disappeared by this
time. As matters now stand , the open-
ingyear of the twentieth century will
probably see United States free from any
kind of national indebtedness. Take tlio
onposito case of countries not remote
ironi rivals. Thu nominal strength of
the Russian army is 2.UOO.OOO men on a
war footing , and nearly 800,000 on a
peace footing. The cll'eotivo strength of
the Frence army under colors is about
010,000 soldiers , nut in time of war , in
cluding all reserves , it amounts to a
total of ! ) ,7riOOOa men. In 1884 the Ger
man army , on a peace footing , consisted
ofIIW.CO'J privates and nearly 20,000 of
ficers ; wlnlo on a war footing tlio total
.strength amounts to 1,500,000 , privates
and : m,000 ollioers , exclusive of the hind-
stnrm. Finally , the Austro-IIungarian
empire shows 270,003 men and 17,000 of-
ticers upon n peace footing , and can
muster 1,050,000 privates and y2,000 of
ficers in time of war.
A Xcw Version of "Hamlet. "
Pall Mall Gazette- Nice customs curt
sey to great kings. For nearly three
hundred years "Hamlet'f ' has been repre
sented as a tragedy probably the most
gloomy tragedy on the -boards. It has ,
however , now been improved on. The
play was given some time ago at the king
ot Sweden's palace , and thu parts were
distributed among royal lietors. The
crown prince took the part of the Prince
of Denmark , and his sister , Princess Alex
andra , was Ophelia. Tlio actress was
discontented with her part. It is not for
every amateur to render that character.
The conclusion seonied > espccially feeble
nnd nnromantic. The collin business
was not to the royal tasto. A play with
out a marriage was quito objectionable.
A courtly chamberlain'promised his aid.
The text was studied. ScvjTtit , emenda
tions were suggested. > But it is easier
often to build a new liouko than to nl'.er
an old ono. At last a pleasant and prob
able solution was found ono that could
not hut have been agreeable to Jiamlet
himself. The Danish prince is excused
his legerdemain witli the rapiers Ho is
only slightly wounded , and in a manner
that needs scarcely nny rehearsal. Ophelia
recovers f i om her madness. There are
no suicides , and the curtain falls on
happy and splendidly solemnized nup
tials.

Syracuse Standard : This story of Col
onel Daniel S. Lament has come out of
the Canadian wilds whore he went a-lish-
ing. Kncamped on the Tient river , near
the balsams on who e boughs thu private
secretary nnd his piscatorial companions
slept , were a native lumberman ami
family. C9loncl Lainout desired to pre
serve his incognito , and was therefore
introduced to such fishermen and hunters
as were about and congenial as simple
Mr. Lamont. The Canadians did not
think of the little man with the red mus
tache as the Lord Chamberlain of thn
American governmental household.
After ho had gone , however , called bank
hy business , the neighborly lumberman
came into camp with an inquiry as to the
identity of that friend of yours , "La-
mont. "
"He is the private secretary of Pres
ident Cleveland , " was the reply.
"You don't say so ? Is that the man
wo hoar so much about at Washington ? "
"The same , "
"Well , 1 wouldn't have guessed it , but
como to think of it , ho is a eulo fellow.
Do yon know we got well acquainted
yesterday up the river , as I thought , but
when I como to go over the conversation
I recollect that ho learned all about mo
and my business , but I don't know the
first blamed thing about him. "
That is a good portrait of Dan Lamont.
