Traveling Passenger Agent Stiles of the
Union Pacific conducted a school of thirty
five pupils In the offices of the passcngc
department on Saturday afternoon. Schoo
wan called promptly at 3 o'clock , and the
roll call showed nil the pupils present , anx
ious to receive their first lessons In selling
nnd collecting tickets. The excuse for tht
school and the Instruction given was the
fact that clerks from all the various depart
ments of the headquarters have been prcssci
Into service ns train agents , ticket agents
ticket sellers and ticket collectors for the
special trains that will be run between
Omaha , Council Bluffs and South Omaha to
the stnto fair grounds.
Prof. Stiles gathered his pupils after a
thorough Inspection and examination of the
most likely candidates In the headquarters
Ho says he has a rattling good force , niu
Is willing In declare any one who gets the
best of his pupils Is a smooth one. Then ,
will be a pair of the pupils to every two
cars. A ticket agent , who will sell tickets
and a ticket collector will work together , am
they will have complete Jurisdiction ovel
two cars. As the special trains will conslsl
of eight coaches , there will be four pairs of
the graduates of the Stiles school an each
train.
train.Whllo
Whllo there was no wild rush for the po
sitions , they were quietly coveted by a num
ber of the clerks who wanted n change ol
air. Many said they had been cooped up
In the offices Juggling figures so long that
they would bo glad to get out for n week ,
oven though It meant to work all day on an
excursion train. The fellows who were
called , but who were not chosen because
they fell down on some point In the examina
tion , are lying low and laughing In their
sleeves. They say that the newly appointed
ticket hustlers will bo mighty tired ot work
ing from 7 n. m. until 7 p. in. before the
state fair closes Its gates , nnd they Intl
mate that they "flunked" on their examina
tions purposely to avoid the train service.
After the assignments were given on
nnd the kicking of the least favored ones
had subsided Prof. Stiles rapped on the
desk and told the pupils how to best watcl
out for sneak thieves nnd deadheads. Thci ;
ho gave the lads their caps and punches
The ticket agents drew pretty brass plates
for their caps , while the ticket collectors
had to be content with black ribbon , on
which their titles were stamped In gilt let
ters. The professor told his pupils not to
use the caps for bicycling after the fair
9 was over and then bade them get home to
get some sleep , Riving them orders to re
port at 7 a. m. Monday morning.
Superintendent of Car Service Bucking
ham of the Union Pacific locked up his
desk on yesterday afternoon , put the key
away down In his Jeans and said farewell to
the headquarters for a week. He Is going to
give his whole tlmo and undivided atten
tlon to the special train service of the
Union Pacific to and from the fair grounds.
Asked If he had cars enough he said
Well , I rather think we have. We have al
most a mile of cars In sight. I guess that
ought to be 'sufficient to handle the crowd.
Indications point to an enormous attend
ance and I hope there will be. The cheap
rates from nil parts of the state will Induce
many to como In who could not possibly
if.liave taken the trip had It not been for
' the $5 blanket rate. "

Local It n IIviiy Men Xttt SurprlHoit at
( ieorKfeV. . DliMilliNoli'M Retirement.
The announcement by The Bee last week
± that George W. Dlcklrson , assistant generrl
f superintendent of the Northern Pacific ,
would sever his connection with the reor
ganized company on September 1 , caused
much regret , though no great surprise to
railroad men here , who were familiar with
' the condition of affairs that exists under the
receivership of the road. Though Mr. Dick
inson's homo Is in Tacoma , he enjoys a
numinous acquaintance among local rail
road men. lie Is a brother of General
Manager Dickinson of the Union Pacific ,
. and received his cnrly railroad tralnlnp
with that company. For many years he was
bridge dlcpatcher for the Union Pacific at
this point , In thus-o days there was but a
single track across the bridge , and It was ,
his duty to see that only ono train attempted
to cross the bridge at s. time. lie was sta
tioned In Omaha until 1883.
Ho will be succeeded In the Northern
Pacific by W. G. Pearce , who has been as
sistant general manager since 1S92. He
1 will have charge of the road west of BillIngs -
Ings , Mont. It Is the opinion of those who
know Mr. Dickinson , that ho will not long
remain out of active railroad work. He Is
regarded as one of the most efficient rall-
' read executive officers in the west , and It
is thought likely that some eastern road
will soon ask him to leave the west. He
Is a part owner of a gold mine In the northwest -
west , that really yields gold , and Is reported
to have a snug fortune laid away , sufficient
to allow him to retire from railroading , If
lie saw fit.
MINN Omaha.
; The English railway ofilclals that were
expected in Omaha this week have crossed
this city off their list and gone west by
way of St. Louis , The party consist of Frcd-
rlc Harrison , general manager of the Lon
don & Northwestern , wlfo and maid ; Ilob-
crt TurnbuH , general superintendent , and
wlfo , and C , A. Barttanl , general freight and
passenger agent of the road. The party
travels In the Pullman car Haslemere , and
expects to be absent two months , or until
October 15. During the trip the party will
travel 10,001 miles , and of that mileage
10,081 la on American railways , passing
through portions of twenty-five states and
territories , while In the United States , and
through five of the British possessions on
the return. _

Passenger men say that there will be no
demoralization of rates on account of Grand
Army business to St , Paul , It Is not ex

Among other Omniums who have vlslte <

Is almost past Is Joseph II. McConncll , su
pcrlntemlcnt of motive power And machlncr ;
of the Union Pacific. He returned Inst wee !
from a fortnight's trip through this a
tractive strip of land , and Is enthusiast !
over what ho saw there. In speaking of hi
trip to a Dee reporter the other day h
said :
"The most Interesting trip to Yellowston
park , I think , Is mndo from Heaver canyon
on the Union Pacific , crossing the park
coming out at Cinnabar , on the Northcn
Pacific , going cast from Hillings by th
Burlington , or to St. Paul , by the Northcn
Pacific. The stage line from Heaver canyoi
has comfortable anil easy riding stages , gooi
horses and careful and accommodating drlv
crs. To a person who enjoys line scencrj
and wants a knowledge of this part of th
country It Is a delightful route to take
Leaving the station at S a. in. you are In
a short time In Comas pralrlo ; you read
the dinner station about 12:30 : , and arc
treated to a first-class dinner. After cross
Ing Comas prairie you skirt the foothills
cross the divide and enter Antelope valley
from there jou cross over Into Sheridan
valley , which Is one of the finest valleys for
hunting and fishing In Idaho. It Is wel
watered by Sheridan creek. Icehouse creek
Snaku creek , Shotgun creek and Snake
river on the east. All the streams have
trout , and there are a great many grouse
sago chickens and quitea number of ducks
and a few geese.
"You reach Snake river about G o'clock
The roads are fine , and you have averages
six miles an hour all day. Leaving Snake
river at 7 a. in , , you reach the Fountain
hotel , In the park , about C In the evening
you cross the divide and enter Henry's lake
valley , crossing It and going through How
ard's pass , you reach Madison valley , ar
riving at Dwcllle's place for dinner. Mr.
Dwellle has a hotel and ranch combined , lo
cated on the south fork of the Madison.
There you can get fine fishing , as the stream
abounds in trout and grayling , and a shorl
dlstanco In the mountains deer , elk anO
bear can be found. Here we found a reg
ular subscriber to The Weekly Dee.
ROADS AltE FINE.
A short rldo brings you to Riverside , on
the North Madison , where a few soldiers
are stationed. You register your names and
pass on. Following the river you enter Mad
ison canyon. The government Is building a
new road and putting bridges across the
stream there. All the roads In the park
are taken care of by the government and
arc maintained In fine condition. Passing
up the canyon you come out at Flro Hole
5asln and stop at the Fountain hotel. It
has steam heat , electric lights and hot min
eral baths , the water being obtained from a
white sulphur spring located about half a
nlle from the hotel. This Is one of the
Jest hotels In the park.
"The principal points of Interest here
are Fountain geyser , Mammoth Paint pots ,
Great Fountain geyser and a number of
small geysers and boiling springs. The
argest collection of geysers In the park
s found In Upper basin , nine miles from
' 'ountain hotel. About three miles from the
ictel Is Hell'o Half-Acre. This place con-
alns-Cxcelslor peyscr , the largest in , the
park , but It linn , not .been in action for cteht
ears. Close to Excelsior Is PrlsThatic Idke
about 200 feet In diameter. Its edge Is
llstlnctly marked with a deposit of beautl- '
ul orange , red , cream and pear colors , while
he center of the lake is almost an emer
ald green. We were fortunate In seeing
ho Great Fountain geyser In action. It
asted about fifteen minutes and threw a
column of hot water about six feet In di
ameter 150 feet high. These actions" arc
rom nlno to eleven hours apart. We were
ortunato in seeing Old Faithful at work
our times. About every seventy minutes
t shoot * up a column of water 100 feet high
and continues In action about ten minutes.
The Mammoth Paint pot Is a pool about
orty feet In diameter , containing a mass
Iko white paint. It Is constantly bubbling
and boiling. Surrounding it are a number
of smaller ones , red and pink. In time
hey build up a cone like a beehive , three
eet high , when they cave In and then break
out In a now place.
"The upper basin contains a number of
arge geysers and boiling springs. Among
ho most Interesting Is the Dee Hive ; Its
opening Is about two feet in diameter , and
vhen In action It sends up a column of
vatcr 200 feet high. The temperature of
ho water In the geysers and boiling springs
s 190 degrees , which Is the boiling point of
vater at that altitude between 7,000 and
8,000 feet.
FOUND GOOD FISHING.
"From Upper basin to Yellowstone lake Is
a drive of eighteen miles , where a lunch
tatlon Is established. Here again you can
cross the lake In a small steamer to the
. .ako hotel , or drive around the edge of the
ake ; the distance by the road Is shortest by
our miles. The altltudo of Yellowstone
ako is 7,788 feet. It is fifteen miles wide
mid twenty miles ! cng , and is said to be
,500 , feet deep In places. The principal at-
ractlon at the Lake hotel Is the fishing.
There Is no place In this country where trout
( ire so plenty as at the outlet of the lake or
Yellowstone river. You fish from a boat and
anybody can catch trout there.
"A drive of eighteen miles brings you
o the Canyon hotel at the Grand Canyon
of the Yellowstone , also the upper and lower
alls. Your first view of the canyon Is ob-
alned at the upper falls. I have seen a
lumber of paintings of the canyon , hut none
give the correct Idea of the coloring. This
you can only get from personal observation ,
The prevailing color Is yellow or orange ,
vlth red , brown , cream and white , There
arc thirty-two combinations of color. The
action of the weather on the rocks has
caused a disintegration , and as the fine
particles of rock have come together It has
iroduccd different combinations , On the
lorth side of the canyon I counted twenty-
wo different shades of red , yellow , brown ,
Bray and cream colors In about half a mile.
The coloring looks different in the morning ,
at noon and heforo sundown , as the position
of the sun makes constant changes. The.
lotlda also affect it.
"Tin- canyon is from 1,200 to l.r.oo feet
Uocj ) and the grandest part Is abuut cJivio
nlles long. The lower falls of the liver w
SCO feet high. You can o to j pohn irn-
ncdlatcly above the falls and withi ; , ( en
'cut of the water ; hero you have n fine \lew
of the falls and the canyon. You do not'
Jre of It. As you leave you are constantly
turning around to obtain another look and
you leave with regret. Inspiration point
gives you the finest view. It Is about three
titles bolov the falls and you look up the
canyon , taking In all the beautiful colors In
he rocks arrJ sand and the green river 1,600
'eet ' below you. From Canyon hotel to
Mammoth hot springs Is thirty-one miles.
) u this road you pass Mud geyser , where a
argo mass of'soft , black mud Is being con
stantly churned backward and forward ; oc
casionally a mass will bo thrown up twenty
o thirty feet. You reach Norrls basin In
line for lunch. Here are a number of
small , active geysers and boiling springs ,
A very Interesting sight Is the black
; rowlrr ; two columns of steam About twelve
nclies In diameter and fifty high are
steadily discharged from openings close to
gether. The noise Is similar to that made
> y the steam from the escape pipe ot a
steamboat ,
"Tho attractions at Mammoth Hot Spring
re the spring and the terraces formed by
he overflow. The formation Is principally
uagncsla , producing the white , while the
ulphur and the Iron produce the red and
ellow ,
"This season a large number of camping
parties has gone through the park. You
nett the farm wagon , the Concord coach ,
iugglc , surrles , people on horseback and
n \\herli. There are more campers this
far than ever before. All the places of In-
ercst Juno a signboard near , with the
nine or the camp on. All the rivers and
MODE the road are also marked.
Mile poita are nlortn nil the roads. Riving
distances to and frbm different stations.
Two companies of-holdlcrs arc stationed In
the park to protect ! and prevent anything
from being carried , off or the formations
from being destroytilt There Is no excuse
for any person not Knowing the rules , as
they are posted In nil the hotels nml In
conspicuous places ialong the road all over
the park. Persons icmight defacing any of
the formations , throwing sticks or stones In
the springs or Reyaora arc arrested by the
soldiers.
"It usually takes 'five days to go through
the park , but you can spend ten days or
two weeks very pleasantly there. The ho
tels are nil kept by. on association. They
are well managed and kept unusually clcai
and all set n good table. Nobody can com

Shcrlilnn County Cattle lliixtler
ClIIIKllt III KllllHIlN ,
Sheriff W. H. Essex of Sheridan county
this state , arrived In Omaha yesterday li
charge ot E. 13. Catron , a notorious cattle
thief and "rustler , " who has carried on his
depredations In the neighborhood ot Hush
vllle , Neb. , for years.
The recital of his adventures sounds like
a dime novel , although unlike the hero ol
the yellow covered literature , ho has at
length come to grief , and now lies nt the
city Jail In a seriously wounded condition
This Is the result of an encounter will
Sheriff Pat McClusky of Cheyenne county ,
Kansas , \\lio was obliged to shoot him In
order to save his own life. Five jcnrs ago
Catron was a well-te-do ranchman ot Dcuel
county , In the western portion of thestate. .
He experienced several reverses In his stocl
raising , and at length , to offset his bail
luck , went In with a gang of outlaws in the
"cattle rustling" business. The gang WES
well organized and did a land-olllcc busi
ness for over five years. It Is recounted that
they frequently shipped seven end eight
car loads of stolen animals to this market
and to Kansas City and held the ranch
men In such a reign of tcrrorthat _ they were
rowerlcss to put a stop to It.
The climate of Sheridan county , however -
over , at last grew too warm for Catron , and
with his wife and children , ho departed
In a covered wagon one night for St. Fran
cis , Kan. The other members of his band
had been killed , Jailed , and some of them
given terms In the state penitentiary for
several jears , and he was the only one that
still remained at large. Catron's exact
whereabouts were not known by the author
ities of Itushvlllo until about n week ago ,
but when learned , two deputy sheriffs were
at once sent to St. Francis with orders to
secure him at any cost. Arrived In the
Kansas town the men secured the services
of McClusky , and the three then rode to the
Cntron ranch , a few miles out of the town.
The sod hut was surrounded and McClusky
advanced toward the front door , shotgun In
hand.
In answer to a summons to surrender ,
Matron sprang Into' the house , barring the
leer after him , and a moment later appeared
at a window with a rifie In his hands. Mc
Clusky , however , was too quick for him ,
and getting into the House by another win-
low , ho fired at Catron as ho was stepping
out of the window. The charge of shot
ook effect In Catron's thighs , a short ( Us
ance below the body , and ho fell to the
loor. Catron was game to the last , and It
vas not until after a > flerco struggle with
ho sheriff that he surrendered. Catron
vas taken to St. Francis , where surgeons at-
ended him , and It wan later decided to re
move him to lUishyllle , to await his trial.

nature , will mako.ihlm a cripple for. life ,

the public our stock of new Fall Styles. In each
of our Six Show Windows we have displayed
samples of the goods we intend toS9ll _ this Fall

business this store has ever known. Never since
we opened our doors have we shown , such a splen
did assortment of styles and never have prices in
any store bee 11 nearly so low. We have the goods.
"W e have "the styles. We have the quantities and
we have the prices with which to draw the trade.
Wewel.come _ _ inspection ; we court criticism ; we
invite comparison , and we don't want any man/s
money until he is satisfied that we give him more
for it than he can get elsewhere. See the goods
in our windows today. See the splendid Men's
Suits from $4.00 up'to $14.00. See the Youth's
Suits , $2.00 to $9.00. See the Boys' Suits from
$1.00 to $4.50 , and notice the wonderfully low
prices in Hats , Shoes , Neckwear , Underwear and
Shirts.
There has never been a time when your
money would go as far as it will this Fall. Never
a place where it will go jieaiiy as far as it will
here. Open evening's during1 the fair.
