[ rnoM inn nun's 'MXCOI.X Tha Rapid Trannit Btroot railway organized and constructed the past yoav has not boon a paying Investment thua far and tbo road was expensive both in construction and in the rolling stock. the steam motoro , thus far used being very expensive. One of the principal objects in the construction was to secure easy transit to West Lincoln and the packing houses there , but the road , while it has been a great accommoda tion to the suburb , has not found the traffic of suflluiont volume to meet the 'expense of operating. It is evident to c 'great many that cars operated by 11 ntcam motor to and from the business centre of the city , do not as readily ac- couimodate passengers as horse cars and the snowfalls interfere greatly with the motors. At the mooting of the stock holders of the Rapid Transit companj .tho pastwock , a proposition was made to John Fitzgerald , one of the hcavj stockholders , that if ho would assume the entire management and control o ! the road and operate the same for five years that the other btocltholdcrs In con sideration therefor would .surrondei their stock to Air. Fitzgerald. The lattci gentlemen asked a few days in which tc -consider the proposition , and it is no.u generally understood that ho will nc' ccpt and will at onoo assume entire con trol of the line. When this is donu the line will bo extended from the citj limits south to the asylum and then one motor will bo used on that end , the other on the line from the north citj limits to West Lincoln and the rou : through the centre of the city bo oper ated with horses.Under a change o this kind , with attendant improve ments , the roael will undoubtedly bo-pul upon a paying basis at once. TIIK 1IKLT IINK I'IMMKCT. One of the prominent features of pub lie improvements under discussion foi the pa it six months has been the pro posed bolt line around the city. Thii road wns Incorporated a year ago and i preliminary survey made , but the worl of securing sufficient co-oporation ot the part of property owners to bo dl rectly benoilttcd , to warrant the con Btruction of the road , has been the dlf ficulty and the great delay In active operations. Three months ago the worl of securing this needed co operation was placed in the hands of John C. Bonnel who is known among his business nsso ciates as a "rustler.1 Mr. Bonncll hai not been idle , and it is understood tint his negotiations have been so succcbs'u that the bolt line is now an assured ccr talnty for on&of the improvements h the city during 1888 , and Its construe .tlon will open up opportunities of th < grandest character for now manufactur ing institutions that can bo located 01 all sides of the city.

Since the advent of the general agon of the the Now York Mutual Life In suran co company in this city , and UK submission of their proposition to sccun business , life insurance agents havi awakened as never before. The propo sition of the Now York mutual , to crec in Lincoln a $100,000 building inconsideration oration of the citizens giving the com pany a million and a half of business was favorably received , atid agent ' placed at onco-in the field canvassing fo the amount. Other life insurance com panics have now entered the aroni and one proposition was made that if ; million and a half insurance was givoi that particular company that $10,00 would bo set aside to assist the city ii securing manufacturing enterprises The agent of the Mutual Life of Noi Jersey has prepared a proposition 01 the part of this company and it will hi presented to the city council at it meeting to-night. This proposition i that if the citizens of Lincoln will glv to that company business that wil cause the premiums to aggrogati 825.000 , that the agent of the com pan will Bet aside (10,000 of tbo amount fo the construction of a city hospital , am further if the citi/.ens cannot raise thn amount of insurance , if they will giv the Mutual of Now Jersey business uno which -the premiums appregato $12,0X the agotit agrees to sot aside $5,000 t aid In constructing it hospital bulldiny It is very evident from the rivalry ex isting , that Lincoln people will oithe take a great deal of insurance an secure a number of the advantage offered , or else the controvorsj' will s divide matters that none will bo scoured FIllK yVAUDEN NEWHUItY. The action of the mayor in attomptinj to depose W . H. Nowbury from the posi tion of llro warden meets with no jwpu lar approval. To the contrary , busines men and Insurance men , almost with on voice , accord to Mr. Nowbury the ercdi of being an oOlciont ollicor , and ono wh has through long experience and sorvic developed in the city of Lincoln ono e the best and most active and roliiibl llro departments in the west. The actio of the mayor in attempting to uncart facts prejudicial to the fire wurdu under the guise of reform is bccomin too familiar to excite comment. Tli committee to inquire into the charge ngaliibt the warden consists of Messn Pace , Briscoo and Graham , and it i undorbtood that thus far they have dii covered nothing to warrant the dii charge of a man of Mr. Nowbury's os porience and to throw tbo departmer into now and untried hands.

A Great Natural Trap.

Ho thought ho would go dpwi i nto this basin and BOO what it was like when ho observed another inlet close b ; Which seemed to offer easier passage Jackson walked around the corner o the rock and brought up very suddcnl ; when ho found himself face to face will an enormous mountain lion. Mr. Also happened to bo behind him , and coinini up at this juncture shot the lion , whicl rolled to the bottom of the basin and dis appeared. Being anxious to secure the hide c the lion , a careful investigalion wn made , and it was discovered that th bottom of the basin was a hole abou twenty feet in diameter , opening into cavity beneath , into which the boas had tumbled. A rough ladder was con btructed and Mr. Aslop descended inl this curious cavern , wherp ho mot sight that fairly paralyzed him for a me mont. Ho found himself in the lowe half of the hourglass-shaped hole in th rocks , which carried out the simile com pletely. The lloor , which was of so\i sandstone , waa forty feet across , and th sides sloped upward and inwnr to the neck dividing the lowe half from the basin above As this neck was but twcnt foot wide , it will bo been that person or animal who fell to th bottom would bo in a rocky room shape like an ink bottle right side up. [ t woul bo impossible for a human being o beast of any description once in thcr to escape without aid. By standing o : tiptoe it was just possible for a tall mute to reach the roof with the tip of hi fingers , and as impossible to climb ou of as it would bo to scale the wall of Hoi iday's opera house backward -without ladder. In this cavernous room lay the dea mountain lion , but he was not alone Nine more mountain lions'of the large * si7,0 , so recently fallen in that thoi hides were still whole , lay about , whil the hole was filled from ono side to th other with bones of every species c animal known on the plains. They ha fallen into the trap formed by imturt and , being unabro to get out , had starve to death. It is a blind confidence to suppoa yourself incapable of mistake.

To the Edlti of the BIK : Perhaps it will be of interest the many readers ot the BKE to know ho the B. & M. railroad treats the poor travel ! ] salesmen when they are at Sewurd. The the great railroad i rich enough tq have tv passenger depgts , which are about a ml tpart , and If 04 NntnU to go from the Gotam- ms branch toho York branch ( even though lis baggage has been checked through ) he Is compelled to either wait over ono train or pay the trahtfcr charges. For Instance , should a salesmnutbo at Mllford and want to chock bagnato to York , ho would got into Seward at about 5 p. m. , and as there is a train on the , York branch at 11 p. in. ono would naturally suppose that the baggage would go there , ; But no such luck. Your hagtmgo Is at ono depot and the night train comes Irrnt the other. Now is this right ! Should wo bo compelled to | > ay the transfer charges la order to save time , when the com. mny has taken our money for chocking the baggage I " ONB Wnu HAS BAOOAUB. , A Nuisance. Cot.UMnus , ! N b. , Feb. 10. To the Ed- tor of the B ! While the Union Pa cific has done a great deal for overland lassengers la putting oa their flyer , the ocal passengers who have the misfortune to ako this train are certainly badly treated. 5\ur magnificent sleeping cars ore run on this train and only one day coach , and that on alleged first-class one. To-day in coming out of Omaha , this coach was crowded so that fifteen people were compelled to stand and it was only after repeated expostulations m the part of these passengers ( who were argoly traveling men ) that -the conductor finally told us that wo could take scats in the Pullman uars. < Belonging to ono family there wore seven dirty children , all under the age of ten , and thesn children occupied three seats , and tbat without paying any fare , while full paid pas sengers were standing. While 1 hove nothing against the chlldron occu pying scats , I do think that the company , In all humanity , ought to pro vide accommodations so that all could sit , and not try to force passengers to pay toll to , ho Pullman company. Again , there being no smoking accommoda tions , there were passengers who wanted to smoke and did smoke , much to the disgust of others , and this leads mo to the thought that if a smoking car was provided , the discom fort of to-day would have been obviated. P hope that the great Union Paclilo com- lany will not longer tolerate such ii nuisance und feel positive that I voice the sentiments of my fellow travelers on this subjectMAN. MAN.

What book are you selling ? " A galvanized smile spread over the man's face , like u lot of butter on a hot- batter cake , and in a sing-song yoico ho remarked : "I am offering the public , in seven teen volumes , 'Dr. Bumblebee's Obser vations In Palestine , ' a book that should bo In every household , a book that jiot only contains the views of the learned savant on what ho saw in the Holy Land , but numerous speculations and theories about what ho did not see , altogether forming a complete library of deep research , pure theology and chaste imagery. I am not selling this Incomparable encyclopedia , but am giv ing it away at a ridicuously low fig ure" The agent paused. He expected that the ticket agent would bo bored , but he was not. On the contrary he scomod to bo amubod and pleased. "Hadn't you bettor give mo a ticket , instead of having mo talk you to death ? " "Talk mo to dcathl Why , man alive , I like to hear It. Say that over. " "Say it over ? " queried the bewildered book agent. "Yes ; I was n book agent myself before - fore I wont li'to the railroad business , and what you say is music to mo. It calls back hallowed memories of the past and makes me want to go on the road again. Why , man alive , I could listen to you all day. I wouldn't have you leave Austin for anything. Como around every day , and we will swap ex periences.

She Talked In Her Sleep. Pittsburg Dispatch : In one corner of a crowded street car crossing the Sixth street bridge , on Saturday evening , sat a young lady of more than ordinary good looks. Her fellow passengers had plenty of opportunities of ga/.ing at her without embarrassing her , for before the car Was over the bridge she had dropped sounel asleep. The conductor awUently know her , for he made no at- terript to wake her when ho came to her , after collecting the rest of the fares. She did indeed look very pretty ; her head resting.slightly against the win dow frame , her lips just parted , and her face composed peacefully. There was a half smile on her face , too , as If her dreams were pleasant. She had prob ably been standing behind a dry goods counter all day long. The men , and women , too , were careful not to touch even the horn of the sleeping girl's dress as they passed out one by ono from the cur. By the time the car passed the Allegheny parks only the sleeper und a gentleman , who was reading - ing a paper , were loft in the car. Just then the conductor entered the car and remarked to the gentleman : "I shall have to wake her ; she gets off hero. " The conductor laid his hand on the sleeping girl's shoulder , and gave her the least possible shako , while with the other hand ho rang the bell for the driver to stop the car. The girl arose at once , but though she did this and opened her eyes also , she was evidently still in dreamland. Her lips moved and she said almost in n whisper : "There , it's 10 o'clockdidn't ; you hear the clock strike ; let mo go , I say please lot mo go , Clmrliol" and then she suddenly s looped , put her hands to her face , and without a word more ran out of the car wide awake and blushing like any thing. * If you must go to sloop in a car , bo sure to order your dreams discreetly. The conductor who told mo this story , however , says ho would not mind being taken for "Uharlio" by the fair dreamer agt\in \ , if she will not cut olT the bounce jubt uj , the point where it becomes inter- esling.
