Yesterday wound up the woolt of the
{ Traveling Men's Outing at Cushman pirlc ,
n momorublo ono for Lincoln as wall as for
the travelers and friends who participated.
The tented ground was n most picturesque
Bcono and the weather for the most part
beamed upon the nITalr. Doubtless volumes
could bo written of the pranks mid capers of
that ono week for the boys were out for "a
time" and to nil appearances got It , Thcro
was no end to the amusements boating ,
flfflmmfng , swinging , bull-playing , horseback -
back riding and.racing.
The attendance was much larger than was
oven anticipated. Fully fifteen hundred people
ple were at the park , and of the number fully
two hundred and flfty were traveling men.
And , indeed , a Jollier lot of boys never got
together for a good time. Their proverbial
urbanlty'Was displayed In n very remarkable
degree. They disbursed their courtesies on
every hand , with that extravagant , wholo-
qoulcd manner so characteristic with them.
Governor Thnyor formally opened the
proceedings with ono of his happiest speeches
which was followed by others equally ap
propriate , The addresses were Interspersed
by songs , reading and instrumental music.
But the effort that provoked the upplauso of
Iho day was Fred A. Wilson's response to
the toast , "Our Wives. "
"Our wives.1 ' What would wo bo without
Uicinl What was Adam I When the .Lord
had finished thcMv'orh of craating Adam , ho
*
rested from his labors , to cpntcniplatu the
crowning glory of the creation. 1'lioro was
Adam wandering around the garden , with
no company , but the pure air and wild
beasts , and the Lord took pity on him. He
know that Adatn would novbr do anything
without , a wlfo ; that ho would lay abed until
11 o'clock In the morning , tmd bo up nil night
at the lodge , eat lute suppers , mid contract
the dtspcusia and gout , unless ho had some
body , to look after him ; Ho know that Adam
was not handy with the needle , and that his
clothes would need repairing , so Ho made up
Ills mind to do something for him , and said :
It Is not good that man should bonlona ; I
ivlll tnaka him an halpinoot lor him.
So God causc'd Adam to full into a deep
sleep , and tlicro performed the first surgical
operation ou record , that of taking out a rib ,
which even In our day is acknowledged to bo
a dlfllcult place of surgery. Out of this rib
ho'mado n woman , and brought her todnin ,
and after BOUIO explanations Adam said :
Therefore shall u man leave his father and
mother and clcavo unto his wlfo , and they
shall be one flesh.
Now this was the history of the flrst
marriage , and Kvo wus the first traveling
man's wlfo , for I understand that Adam did
afterwards become a traveling man.
History repeats itself , and over since that
day of the ilrst marringo the ruling passion
has been , seemingly , to marry. But this is
as It should be , and wo can say with Pone :
"A wife 1 nh , gcntlo deities , can ho who has
a wife o'er feel adversity i" Wlfo ! Gentle
men , caii you not recall with emotions the
first time you over called her who walks by
your sldo by that holy title , "my wifoj" '
Ladies , docs it not make your pulses heat
faster when.you remember those words first
spoken'by ono who had won your hoartl
Ah I holy relation , can anything bo more

Who solves each doubt , clears every mist

And makes him radiant in * the face 9 ! day !
She would peril fortune , fame and Iifo
For man , the Ingratc the devoted wife.1'
13ut our wives God bless thorn I Can
other wives bo compared to thorn ? I hardly
think so. Do they enjoy the blessings of

scarcely acquainted with us. Wo are with
them fO little , that I often think they must
envy their more fortunate sisters whoso hus

thorn. Wo can scarcely think of anything else ,
and long for the time to coma whun wo shall

never repay for not running off with souio
man who will live with thorn. Wo ewe thorn
much for having accepted us In the ilrst

They arc the oasis In our desert , the ono
bright spot towards which' our eyes and
thoughts are overturned , ar.d to make them
happy , In the fullest scnso of the word , in all
it implies , Is our constant doslro.
And , though our lives may bo long or

But when the shadows of lifo's path arc

Prof , Shrove delivered the address of the
27th. It wus a scholarly effort and abounded
in good things said In a brilliant way. The
professor was listened to with marked atten
tion.
tion.After
After Prof. Shrovo's talk to the under
takers nud travelers , the military band dis
coursed several choice places of music , to
the dollght of the numerous boating parties ,
and then led the crowd to the grand ntand ,
where the rules governing the tournament ,
which had been prepared , were read and ex
plained by Captain Agoy , The results of the
various events have bean given in TUB BED
from day to day.
The boys rocoivcd tholr prizes from the
bauds of Uuptaln Gatchnll , who bestowed
thorn In u fo\v \ kindly words. Following the
tournament catno a qamo of ball botwoou
two select nines of traveling men , uaotalnod
by L. W. Gnrrouto and Happy Cal Dimond ,
the tea man. Cul kept up his reputation of
dealing from the bottom , Dy selecting the
lean men of the fraternity , while Garroulto
chose the. fat men. I , W. Lanslncr , who was
present bid off the honors of umpiring the
game at $5 , and was duly installed , but thu
other boys cujollccl him Into whacking up in
advance. The bidding for this honor was
spirited between Lansing and Dean. At the
clciso of the fourth Inning the gnmo was
called , Gurroutto having received a bloody
uoso from ono of his pitcher's curves , The
pa mo was In favor of the fats by a scorn of
7 toO.
The evening was spent In dancing , the
German mlllt-iry bund furnishing a full or
chestra.
The USth was wholly given up to sports
and recreation and right royalty did the
tourists , their sweethearts and wives grasp
the opportunity ,
The amo of lacrosse botwonti the Sim
mons mid Indcpumlont clubs was the excit
ing feature of the day , although the crowd
witnessing it was not. overly largo. Many
brilliant plays wnru made mid the encores
from Charles McUargur. Hus Barker , L. C.
Presslor , Tony Kuogo and W , II , Uakln , now
recruits , who Imagined they were lacrosse
players , so encouraged the .Simmons club
thut it won ! u four straight guinea and took
in the purse of $100. W. J. Robinson actiui
as roferco and Chris Camp ana George Ho-
land us umpires.
The attendance Saturday was mu ch thu
largest of tbo week , and the day was most
huimlly Sjxjnt. The Gorman military baud
led the van to the train at D:80 : o'clock , and
Interspersed the talks of I. W , Lansing ,
LUUTOIICO llaskoll and Postmaster Watkins
with choicest music. Lansing was must
happy lu his effort. His drollery and sharp ,
pungent hits kept the crowd in the bait of
humor. llaskoll , on "The Traveling Man
nnd His Comforts , " was very facetious.
Last , but not least , oamo Postmaster Watkins -
kins , who told of thu trial * nnd tribulations
of the gray-coated carriers in disbursing the
traveling man's mall , The pathotlo part of
bis sketch , however , was his description of
tho. disappointment of the boys in fulling to

Although sultry bayonet any day of the
season , n great crowd ruihod to Cushman
park Sunday soomlngly of ono accord. The
Inviting shad'iH at the park may , perhaps ,
have had something to do with tun rush , but
nsldo from thorn there were two prcat at
tractions , viz. : The closing day of the travelIng -
Ing men's outing nnd the pro.ichlng service
of llov. Gcorgo W. Savldgo. of Omaha ,
nnd every person who nttondoil was amply
repaid. The trains , as usual , loft the depot
at 2:3J and Gi.'iO o'clock sharp , and the Ilrst

The Gorman Military band furnished
sacred music for the occasion. But Tin : BEB *

to day throughout the week. It now be- ,
lonzB to history. All In all It has.
been quite successful although , to bo frank ,
the attendance among the traveling men was
not up'to public expectation. Good and suf
ficient reasons , however , have boon given.
Many of the hoys wcro compelled to make
their regular trips aud could not tnko the
lay-on" in justice to themselves and tholr
customers. But the management Is satlstlnd
with thu result. The boys who .voro ublo to

themselves to the fullest extent. As they put

FRED GRAY'S BIQ PLAINING MILL
A Place Where Men nnd Machinery
Combine Tholr lifTnrts In the
Production of Hulld-
crs' Supplies.
A Mammoth Institution.
Down on the river bank , bntwoon
Furnnm and Harnoy streets , Fred W.
Gray , the big lumber merchant , has n
plaining mill in which iv Bmi reporter
discovered an interesting nnd rather
fascinating story. The structure ia
erected entirely of wood ttnd painted
Union Pacific red. It attracts no
special attention , and , viowotl from
either bridge or bluff , does not appear
to bo of much consequence. Its shape
is like that of the letter U , and rises to
n halghth of two storjcs. But visit the
interior and there you will 11 ml scones
calculated to produce surprise. All
through the building , front ground
floor to roof , men and machinery daily
combine their efforts in the production
of supplies used by people who iind it
convenient to erect housosnnd when the
wheels are going , It is an oxhllorating
night. They run saws , chisels , planers ,
utigors and lathes of every kind and de
scription for making doors , sash , blinds ,
bannisters , mantles und everything
needed to completely llnish the finest
und costliest edifices.
"Lust " said Mr. ' *
year , Gray , ! dis
covered that over iv million and n half
of dollars were sent from Omaha to
eastern cities for this kind of work ,
and after making tip my mind that the
same things.could ho made hero just ns
easily nnd well as any place else , con
cluded to establish u manufactory and
keep as much as possible .of that great
amount of money at homo. The venture -
turo has proved' successful beyond my
most sanguine expectations. Ever since
the mill started , early in March , wo
liavo bcon crowded with orders , and are
now running at our fullest capacity. "
The public generally has no knowl
edge of the existence in this city of
such an institution as ho controls and
operates. Ho desires , therefore , to
have ooople understand that his concern -
corn is equipped with the best kind of
hinchincry. and that lip em
ploys workman whoso superior skill
enables him to turn out
just as good and as line work as can bo
ot at St. Paul , Minneapolis , Chicago ,
or any other city in America. Ho
enters mostly to the best trade , thouch
ho cnn put up any class of goods cus-
tomura call for.
A Bui : reporter visited the
mill on Saturday , when it was
in full blast. He saw seventy men
engaged in the various departments
and learned that each one had bcon se
cured because of his special fitness in
some similar line ; consequently they
are till artists of the highest class.
The best idea of this industry may bo
obtained by beginning with a car loud
of lumber and following its course
through the shop. When the consign
ment arrives , it is m'led up in loose
stacks under a big shed and loft
there to weather dry , sometimes for
months. Three weeks before going to
the mill it is loaded ou trucks and
shoved into an air tight furnace or kiln ,
where every particle of moisture is lit
erally roasted out und the boards be
come almost red hot. Then it is ready
for the plainer. Air. Gray receives
an order for so many doors , win
dow sash , blinds , "stair i-ailines ,
etc. , and notifies the foreman , who receives -
coivos his instructions and proceeds ac
cordingly. His draughtsman takes the
architect's plans , and from thorn cuts
out the measurements , which in turn
are given to n you.ig man who does
nothing but saw tlio lumber into the
various si/.cd pieces wanted. From
his hands each piece passes
in reculur order through the
machines that plain , bore , mortise ,
bevel , groove , ridge , carve , and 'finally '
come out in shape. The heavy doors ,
window frames and posts are constructed
by gluing from throe to five different
woodtogothor , which prevents warping
and cracking. After a door has
has boon glued it is loft three
or four days in a hot air
room to thoroughly dry , then goes
through a largo machine , which
smooths the surface and loaves it ready
for polishing. Ono department is de
voted entirely to ornamental work , in
which the panel cutting and fancy
corning is done ; another room to stair
building exclusively , and , so on
until the last touches have been
added and the order is waiting delivery.
Mr. Grup commenced with ono turning
lathe and is now running throe. At
the start ho expected to bo satisfied
with § 100,000 worth of business in a
year , but will exceed that amount in
six months. ,
The establishment is complete in
every respect. The dry house is heated
by means of a largo fan near the engine ,
which blows heat into it through a duct
under the groundi about 100 feet long.
Another arrangement guthora all the
shavings and sawdust into n big pipe ,
which carries and empties them in a
largo funnel at the top of the
building , where they separate and the
dust goes in ono direction while the
shavings descend to the boiler room nnd
are used for fuel. Thin prevents any
waste. All the rejected lumber finds u
market after it has been out up by a saw
in the yards , run with a cable from the
mill , and stuff that can't bo utilized in
ono way , is in another.
It may bo a matter of some interest
to know that among the now buildings
now going up , which "Mr. Gray's mill
supplies , are Dr. Mlllor'o Seymour Park
mansion. Charles Turner's now resi
dence , the Commercial National bank ,
Dolono hotel , three dwellings for J. R.
Hendrix , the Curtis-Turnor block ,
Charles Douol's now house , Dennis
Fltzpatriuk's ' residence , and u number
of others ,
Mr. Gray Is to bo congratulate on
having established BO important an en
terprise , and ho proposes to make it
eventually a mammoth institution.
IlnrdnoHa of Woods. ,
The relative hardness of woods is cal
culated by the hickory , which is the
toughest. Estimating that at 100 , wo
got for pitmut hickory 8(5 ( , white oak ,
Si ; white ash , 77 ; uogwood , 74 ; scrub
oak , 7j ! ! white hazel , 72 , ; apple tree , 70 ;
rod oak , C ! ) ; white beech , ( Jo ; black wal
nut , 0-5 ; black birch , 02 ; yellow nnd
black oak , 00 ; hard muplo , 60 ; white
elm , 68 ; rod cedar , 60 ; cherry , 65 ; yol
low ulno , 63 ; chestnut , 62 ; yellow popu
lar , 61 ; butternut and white birch , -13 ;
and white pine , 35. According to thlo
formula woods possessing a aogroo of
hnrdnosij equal to only about 40 percent
loss than thutof ordinary hickory should
not be classed as hard woods. Such
woods are , however , limited in quantity
and uro not of sulllclont importance to
justify a classlllcatlon , nnd tho. trade
will continue to construe hard wood to
moan anything except hard pino.

Yesterday nt Manawn was moro of a day
than Sunday usually is even at that famous
summer resort. The opening of the now
park and grounds of the Schuetzon Voroin
dro'w an unusually largo crowd to the lake ,
and made things lively for everything , from
the motor lit.o , steamers nnd hotel down to
the row boats nnd smallest restaurants.
There were about 3,500 people at the lake
during the day , butnotmorotlmn , , one-fourth
that number remained during the ovonl ng.
A ball game bot\veen \ the Gnrnoaus nnd

completed , and she is now , with the excep
tion of the C. E ; Mayno , the fastest boat on

to remedy , and then ho will bo able to throw
foam in the faces of them all. He is allowed
120 pounds ot steam , but his boiler will only
maintain a head of about seventy pounds.

THEY MUST GO ,
In a week or so liglit weight Suits will be almost unseason
able stock. We have always managed every season to close out
our goods and we are determined to do it tnis time also. We
know we have a job on hand. Our stock is considerably larger
than it ought to be. We have done a much larger business and
the accumulation o ± odd Suits and broken lots is naturally
greater , but our exertions to dispose of them will be greater.
This week we shall have a special clearing sale of Miens"
and Boy's Suits. We will slaughter values and
THE SUITS MUST GO.
First of all we offer nt about half price a good dark Cheviot Suit , of which we ,
have a large lot. This is a Suit with which we thought we would make a great M
.hit.at $10.50 , but the call , this soasou was for light colored shades , aud con-
eoqueiitly this Suit did not take so well , though it is very neat. The quality of
thf goods is excellent. It is lined with good serge , well made and will give -a
good business suit , and just ou account of it being of a dark color , will do well
for fall wear. However , we do not want to take any chances of its selling later ,
besides wo will then need room for fall goods , and in order to sell these suits
NOW wo have reduced thorn to § 5.90.
Next we call attention to several large piles of light colored Cheviot Suits ,
broken lota , and leavings of some of our best sellers , handsome patterns , good
goods , well made and well fitting. We liave reduced tliem to $7.60
and $7,90.
A third lot of suits which must .go this week ia a line dark silk mixqd Cassi-
mere. This is another suit which has for some reason or other did not take , and
we have a big lot of them left , all si es. The material is a first rate quality. The
suit is well gotten up and should sell for Sl.3.50 , as well as any wo have in the
store at that price. To make them go we have reduced them to $8.5O.
Ask our salesmen to show you these Suits.
Our thin Coats and Vests do not need any more advertising.
We have sold thousands o ± them already , and every customer
that bought one advertises them.
