I The new unlveislty has not 'yet boon lo cated , neither has It bi-en named , but it is nn assured fact beyond tmustiou. It will bo lo cated cither In Knst or South Lincoln , ns those localities are easy of access trora the city proper , and the salt basins nnd West Lincoln packinghouses occupying that sec tion ot country mljaccnt to the city. That the location will cause an enlarged boom in real estate fur the Immediate locality In which It Is situated , goes without question , and consequently a .sttnglc amonz dealers In dirt Is nut nt all Improbable. It Is related to the llr.i : that the York , Central City nnd Mnllnllun college delegations dopnited home ward gicatly disappointed , nnd that they will at oncu commence the work ot strengthening their local schools alicady established. Hut Each nctlon , while not unexpected , will not diminish the ardor fur the university ns lo cated at Lincoln , and thu parties who are helping the nnUorslty locally will allow nothing to Intel fore with its success. The lioom In icnl estate is already notlcnble from s the location made , and the cnmliu season Tpromlsos tu be ut extra interest tu Lincoln fi citizens.

A visitor at the stock yards at bouth Omaha is always burprised at the won derful progress that has been made- there during the past few months. JS'ew pack ing houses have been openedtho yards have been enlarged nnd a great many other improvements made. One of the important institutions of South Omaha is the Union Slock Yards bank. While its establishment lias been under consid eration by the Stock Yards company for the convenience of live stock men and others , for the past yeartho actual open- inc of its doors was delayed until No vember 24 last. The management of the stock yards company did not sue or ex pect any profit in a bank for the lirst year's business , but with characteristic energy and foresight bcliuvo it one of the best things that could bo done to advance their largo interests in South Omaha and push Omaha's hvo stock interests to tlio iront. L'iie directors of the bank are largely heavy stock holders in the stock yards company and are alive to booming the yards nnd advancing the interests ot every stock man doing business or hell ing his stock at South Omaha. Among the stockholders of the Union Stool : Yards bank are such strong mun ilium- ciully as the following , most of whom are thoroughly known in Omaha and all over the west , thoroughly identified wilh large won turn enterprises and known as the originators and promoters of the yards : John McShanc , president of thu uank , also president of the stock yards companv nnd the Bay State Cattle company - pany , ntc. , congressman-elect for this district 5 William A. I'aUon , vice president of thn bank and tnu stoek yards company , principal of thu wholesale grocery house of Paxtou , Gal lagher & Co , , aim ol the Otcalalla Land and Cattle company , etc. ; Herman Kount/e , president of thu First National Hank of Omaha , also of Kountx.c Bros. , bankers , New York City , heavily inter ested a& a capitalist in South Omaha's stock interests and industries anil well known as the largest real estate owner in Omaha and one of its ablo.it linanelal men and whose connection with any on- tciprlsu Is n sure onum of success ; P. E. Her , ot llur A : Co. , mid thuillow Springs di.stlllery , the man who had the sand and thu money to demonstrate that coal exists in Nebraska and tindur thu city of Omaha ; .John A' ( .

The ollice is located in the exchange building in the room originally con structed and rc.servcil for that purpose. It has a good vault and the oflico is lilted up with good counters and desks uro- tcctcd by wire screens and is thu ploas- antcst room in thu building. Hall's Safe and Lock company furnished the safe which is of Hall's latest and best work with time look and every security for safe keeping of money. 'Inoro are new signs in raised trill letters on the west and south sides of thu building put up during the past week that on the west side being plainly read from the depot. The Union Stock Yard bank is incor porated under state laws with capital of 3200,000 and authority to increase to J500.000 when desired. The success of thin venture siucu its establishment leas than four weeks ago is something phenomenal. Almost every live stock commission lirm doing business In South Onmha have transferred their busi ness to the Union Slock Yard bank , lo cated in same building with their ollicos and as handy for them as a now jackknife - knife for the proverbial small boj' . Men in other lines of business seem also to thoroughly appreciate the difference be- Iwecn doing misinoss at home and up town , and have largely transferred their linaricul transactions to the Union Stock Yard bank. Now accounts came in also from workmen and others whoso homes or intorcslH are centered in South Omaha in fact scarcely n day passes that does not show an increase ot from two or three to six or eight now depositors , while thi > volume of transactions from the old accounts is steadily increasing day by day. Hanks outside of this city also itnd the Union Stock Yard bank a convenience dnpnsits being made there lor their credit and the use of the homo shipper who thus receives Ins money without any rink in transmission to hini , The aim of the bank seems to be to thoroughly and systematically advance thu interests of South Omaha , the Union Stock yards and the interests especially of .shippers nnd feeders of live stock in Nebraska and thu west. The heavy backing which the bank has and the favor with which it has Imun re ceived will iiiMiro its prosperity in the future. _ CHUllCII NOTICI-JH.
