THE 'MARSHES RECLAIMED ,
The Northern Flats Alive With
Warehouses and Factories.
THE GROWTH OF TWO YEARS
A Section of the City AVhlcli Prom
lacs to Become One of tlio Mo it
Lively Business DUtricts
of Uninlia.
Hives of Industry.
The person who imugincs that thobot
toms lyinp cast of Shonuun avonueuncl
north of Nicholus street is u stretch of
swamps profitable only for the propa
gation of frogs and the growth of dwarf
willows , an opinion which once pro-
Tailed , will huvo such delusions quickly
destroyed hy taking time for a Sunday
afternoon drive or stroll over that sec
tion of the city ,
Within afow years wonderful changes
bttvo been wrought there because a
great and growing city like the me
tropolis of Nebraska will not lot such
valuable property remain long in a state
of nature.
The Union Pacific shops and water
works are not , as many believe , the
only individual enterprises on the bpt-
toniH because the disrtict above swarms
with hives of industry , marts of trade ,
and other establishments furnishing
employment for hundreds of the bread
winners of Omaha.
At the southwest corner of this ter
ritory is the Missouri Pacific freight
depot , and beyond , stretching north
and south , is a perfect network of
trucks , over which rolls an almost con
tinuous procession of loaded cars. To
the east , rlfio the great warehouses of
the Winona Implement and Armstrong
companies , crowded from collar to roof
with devices for the aid of horny-
handed toil. i
Next to those Is the factory of E. M.
IIulso & Co. , whore thirty-live hands
are employed , who turn out 100 mat
tresses daily , besides a largo quantity
of beautiful lounges and bed-room
rots.
rots.Aftor
After this comes M. A. Disbrow's im
mense warehouse with its inoxhauatl-
blo stock of doors , sashes and' blinds.
In front of this IB a moro modest struc
ture , but of greater benefit to Omaha ,
because It Is a factory. It belongs to L
McGroor , and gives employment to
thirty-live men , who last year turned
out 840,000 worth of sash , doors , blinds ,
mouldings , frames , etc.
The great cedar yard of Nauglo &Co.
with its mountains of poles , posts and
railroad tics , cannot fail to attract at
tention. In their saw mill , the long
cedar poles are cut into fence posts and
blocks forpaving. A business amount
ing to $500,000 , was transacted by this
company lust year.
That four-story brick structure in
course of erection is being erected by
Mr. N. O. . Brown , a successful young
contractor. It is ( iSxlliO foot and will bo
used us a warehouse- .
Over yonder is' Mount & Grlflln's
kindling factory and numerous oilier
mailer betablishmonts for the sale of
coal , woo'd , ojtc. , are scattered nloilg at
jBtervule.
Over next > ( o the river are the huge
tructures of the Omaha Ico.company ,
and Nlchojas.Btrect has boon paved
with stoiio.tilniost to their doors.
Before the tce .houscs are reached ,
na passes by a village of the mast
wretched ehantlcs , occupied by a-lot of
quutters.
To ; the northwest of the ice hou&uu
are soon the towering flouring mills of
Fowler & Gants , and the steady rumble
of the machinery tolls better than
words of the immense amount of work
done.
Beyond these is the only silent fac
tory of the bottoms industries the
Goodman packing company , which has
temporarily yielded to the tendencies
of all the packing house trade in this
section to gravitate toward South
Omaha.
To the southwest is the large brick
structure occupied bv the Omaha Barb
Wire , Fence and Nail company. Over
40,000 pounds of barb wire are turned
out every day , and besides this 20,000
pounds of nails. The basement of the
building is occupied by the Van Court
& Bondict Pressed Brick and Stone
company , which is doiiig a driving
business , particularly in manufacturing
artificial stone.
Away toward the west rises the
smoke of the Omaha Milling and Ele
vator company , whore an enviable busi
ness is done.
Still northward towers the five-story
building occupied by W. T. Seaman ,
dealer in nil manner of vehicles. The
structure is 80x120 feet , and contains
45,000 square feet of llooring. The east
front is a vast expanse of windows.
The business has grown to such
dimensions that another building ,
three stories high , is also used by Mr.
Seaman as a store , house.
Beyond this is the. three-story build
ing of the Bonn Manufacturing com
pany , dealers in sash and windows.
Their house is also 80x120 foot. To the
northward , beyond these brown colored
ice houses packed with the crystal
product of Cut-olT lake , is Mr. Herman
Doiss' brickyard , which has a capacity
of 10,000,000 in a season. Mr. Deies is
'trying a new method for burning that
greatly reduces the cost of making
briulc. The method is patented and
Mr. Dotss Is the only pcrpon in this
country at present known of who is
using it. It requires but one-fourth
the fuel of ordinary kilns. The Con
solidated Tank Line company is next
door , with its , throe largo buildings and
eight immense oil tanks. Tills company
claims to furnish ninety-live per cent of
all the oil used in Nebraska , embracing
lubricating , gasoline and kcrosino oils.
The main bulldlntr it ) 210xM ) . The com
pany has its own cooper shop in ono of
the buildings , and a largo force of men
IB kept constantly busy making barrels.
In this vicinity is a settlement of cot
tages familiar to visitors to Cut-oil lake.
Some of them have no adormrjont , but'
most are at least painted and though
the homes are all humble they are far
superior to the settlement on Poverty
Hat half a mile bolow.
To the northward are situated the
largo round bouses of the Missouri
Pacific and Chicago , St. Paul. , Mim
ncaiHlls ) & Onahi ( : railroads and on the
borders of the lake are the frowning
structures used by Hammond & Co. .and
Co. us ice houses.

At the regular meeting of the Omaha
Shorthand society Tuesday night , John
T. Boll , of the Moroury , addrebsed the
society on the early history of short
hand in Nebraska , as follows :
"Tho lirbt attempt made to secure the
passage of a law providing for official
reporting in the courts in Nebraska was
in the year 1870-71 , when Senator Ilns-
eall , of Douglas , introduced : i bill in
the legislature , which wusMibstuntinlly
a copy of the Towa law with a per diem
pay of .18.10 per 100 words for tran-
HcriptH. The bill was sat down upon so
promptly and with mien forcn by liis as
sociates , that Juugo IIihcvllH : ; hair
stood straight up with astonishment ,
and he has never been able to got it en
tirely llattcncd down yet.
"The eountica paid in warrants in
gome instances worth 00 cents on the
dollar.
"When the legislature mot in 1877
the ruporUm were granted a salary of
$1,000 iubtend of a per diem pay , but
thu houtiu llnanco committee forgot to
appropriate money to pay thcHO salaries
and thu rcbult WIIH that for two yours
they wore a burden upon their friends.
Two yoard later an appropriation was
made to cover thin buck pay , and the
temporary statesmen of that legislature
tonic their little whack nt the law pro
viding for court work , and the present
statute , which fixes the salary at51/ ,
with nn allowance of 5 cents per hun
dred for transcript , Is tha result.
'However , the suite was ready to
admit the usefulness of shorthand , for
when the impeachment * trial of Gov
ernor David Butler caino on a few weeks
later four stenographers were employed
to tlilco the proceedings * each of whom
wiispald ij > lo a day for a portion of the
timo'occupicd by thoi UIBO : and $10 per
day for the remainder.- ' The following
summer three reporters were employed
by "tho state in reporting the constitu
tional convention off that year , and
were paid $7.50 per dnjr etieh , , including
Sundays and adjournments.
"During the logiilftturo session of
1885 a bill was blocked ) out by General
Estabrook nnd other lawyers and sent
down to Lincoln , whenrit was taken in
charge by Senator Crawford of West
Point , which bill provided for the ap
pointment of stenographers by three
district judges whoso jurisdietion then
extended over the ontjro state. The
pay wae fixed at5 per day with a trans
cript fee of10 cents. All criminal
cabes wore to bo reported at the expense
of the county , but in civil suits liti
gants used their own judgment in that
respect and most of them squandered
money by not oinploynig the reporter.
"In 1870 there wore , but three short
hand writers in Omaha John Gray
( since 1872 a leading law reporter of
Chicago ) , John Hall ( then employed on
the Omaha Tribune , nown resident of
London , ting. , ) and mybolf with Drill
lirown of Burlington , lu. , now of the
shorthand firm -of Brown & Holland of
Chicago. Wo did the work for the
Ute in ( ho tipring uud summer of'1871 ' ,
of which mention has been made. In
that year Homer Stull ( now a leading
lawyer of Idaho ) came to Omaha as the
city editor of the Herald , and a year or
two later Alfred Sorensen became
known to fame as the city editor of the
Bee. These gentlemen would have in
creased the number of local stenogra
pher by two , but for the removal from
the city of Messrs. Gay and Hall ,
"April 15 , 1875 , I was appointed by
Judge George B. Lake , then district
judge for the Second district , embrac
ing ten counties , the official reporter
for Ins court , the first one thus ap
pointed , and for several months the
only ono in the state. The first case
ever reported by shorthand in Nebraska
was ono tried before judge Crounso at
Fremont , in April , 1870 , when John
Smith , proprietor of a small hotel in
that place , was on trial for his life for
the killing of ono George Gallon of
West Point , in consequence of a quar
rel over fifteen cents worth of hay.
Upon the recommendation of Judge
Crounse may long life be his I was
employed by Dr. Rlillor to" report the
case for three dollars nor column. I
remember that in measuring up the
work afterwards , when I went to the
olllcc for my pity , Mr. Richardson told
me that it came to $ : > ' > .7o , nnd I thought
then , and have not changed my opinion
since , that it would have boon a very
neat and appropriate thing for Mr.
Richardson tohavc measured bin thumb
u few times , nftur the fashion of a coun
try btorokcopor in measuring calico , in
order to have inndo it an oven twoivo
columns. If I had known that it would
have lacked such a trillo of footing up
$ . ' ! ( ! . I would have gladlv thrown a few
additional linen into the report , and
thus earned that extra quarter.
"This Fremont experience was a hard
ono. Before that I had never attempted
to report even a speech , and had no
idea whatever of court proceedings , as
I had never boon in a court room dur
ing a trial. A consciousness that a
human life might depend upon the ac
curacy of my report had a crushing
oll'cct upon mo , and when I crawled oil'
to bed at ' ! o'clock in the morning thu
case having been commenced at t ! p. in.
and ruHlied along to a clone 1 was so
exhausted that I did not care whether I
awakened again in this life or not.
"In addition to the phyMcal and ner
vous strain , I was depressed by the
dreadful fear that 1 might not bo able
to read my notun. But I was. The
Bonn Pitman system of shorthand was
iptdndcd by its inventor , fortunately for
jno. to ho read as well as written
therein difi'oring from some moro mod
ern systems and , upon tackling my
notes after u sound and dreamless sleep
of bcvcral hours , they unwound them-
helves before tiio jjn the pluasautost
manner imaginable' . Indeed , I was
rather proud of"them , and liavo brought
tq chow to this assemblage of bright
young stenographers to-night the first
pagu of shorthand notes over token in
u Nebraska court , and to ask if they
will not agree with mo that , consider
ing the circumstances , they are at least
potable samples. "

The emperor of China.Is . much dissatisfied

deepest pain to the girl-empress , and she Is
said to bo partly deranged with grief.
Probably the oldest couple thrtt ever stood
before a marriage altar in Ohio is John Shill

just boon made husband and wife at Hur-

Both are fairly well to do.
