Thompson , 707 South Sixteenth street , last Wednesday night , and picking up his trous ers which were lying on a chair at the foot of the bed , eloped with them. In the cloth ing was a purse containing $40. A gold watch and chain In Mr. Thompson's vest which hung on another chair nearby waa not touched , and It was evident that the burg- glar's visit was a most hurried ono. Mr. Thompson retired about 9 o'clock leav ing the gas In an outer room burning. About 10:30 : another occupant of the place returned home , aud not only found the gas extin guished but the door left open. The ilat had been entered by means of a skeleton key. The case was reported to the police , but Mr. Thompscn says but a feeble effort was made by them to run the thief to earth. Inquiry at police headquartera failed to elicit any Information on the Thompson burglary , and although reported , It Is thought to bo one of the many which the police nro attempting to keep from the public. Some time after midnight Friday bur- Klara 'broke Into the store of Chris Lund , 1812 North Twenty-fourth street. Entrance was made by prying up n bck window. The thieves ransacked the place thoroughly , not forgetting to tap the till while doing so. Only a small amount of money had been left In the drawer and they received little for their pains. They then turned their atten tion to the stock and breaking open a glass case , abstnictcd half a dozen packages of cigarettes and a quantity of cigars. A number cf other articles of merchandise wore collected on one of the counters In readiness to transport to other places , but the thieves wore evidently disturbed In their plans and left them behind. The police have arrested a young man named Edward Ncwstrom , charging him with the theft of n pocketbook from Mrs. Joseph Bushman nt 1718 Nicholas street. Newstrom strongly denies any knowledge of the affair and asserts that his arrest must 'bo ' duo to persecution of certain persons who live In his neighborhood. The theft was committed Bovcral days ago and the police have been working on the case ever since. The purse contained but , \ small amount of money.

No very great .opposition Is expected In the wcat over Secretary of the Treasury 0 a go's plan of reorganization of customs ports. At least no very serious objection Is likely to arise over the scheme , as reported In the telegraph dispatches , whereby the ports at Sioux City , Lincoln , DCS Molncs and Council 111 lifts will bo under the direction of the offlco In thin city , Thin Is duo to the fact that whoever looks after the business at these points will find the o dices moro remu nerative than they have been In the past. Acocrdlng to Secretary Cage's plan the ports will bo abolished In tboeo cities , but a deputy will bo stationed at each one. They will bo employed at a salary of at Icn/it (1 ( > 200 a year. At present the oinces pay far less Last year the collector at Lincoln made prac tically nothing. The DCS Molncs otllco pah about $100 and ( lie Council Bluffs offlce about $300. Secretary Gage's plan Is supposed to bo In the Interest of economy , but the loca' ' offlco people cannot figure out just how II comes In. It Is probable , however , thai money will be saved by ( ho consolidation In the cast. One advantage will bo found In < lie fact that It the work at smaller towns and cltlon Is consolidated and under the direction of a large port , such as the one In this city , the chances of defalcation In office , such as occurred In Council Illuffs , will bo largely reduced.

The regular meeting of the Associated Cycling Clubs will bo held Monday night and among the matters that will bo consid ered Is an ordinance regulating driving cii the public streets. The proposed measure Is designed to prevent the practice of rid ing nnd driving , on the wrong side ot the street , which has caused nine-tenths ot the accidents ot previous seasons. The ciily provision of that kind now In force Is a CPC- tlon ot the hack ordinance , and the new ordi nance proposes that the same regulation ahull apply to all sorts of vehicles. It Is provided that no one shall rldo or drive for more than cno block on the left side of the street. Thin allows onjono who has business on the wrong eldo a block In which to cross over. The principal offenders which the ordi nance Is designed to reach are the peddlers. many of whom cling to the wrong side of the street with a pertinacity that has maJo trouble for scores of wheelmen. Some of them seem to have a particular grudge against bicycles , and make It a point to run them down whenever an opportunity offers. Under the proposed ordinance these people must follow the same regulations as are Im posed on other vehicles or bo subject to ar rest. If the ordinance Is approved by the cycling clubs , It will probably bo submitted to the council Tuesday night. Another complaint of the wheelmen Is In regard to the growing practice ot suburban residents , of dumping oslies and Other refuse In the btreets and gutters. Repeated com plaints have been made to the chief of police but he says that It Is Impossible to secure a conviction In police court , and It Is there fore , useless for the officers to waste their time hunting up offenders and filing com plaints. The matter has been brought before the Advisory Hoard , where It encountered the Eamo obstacle , and no effort ban been made to check the nuisance. XEW KI-ECTRHC OUIJI.VAXCE5 It DAD Y. Provide * Men 11 N for Preventing Unn- City Electrician Schurlg has prepared anew now electric ordinance , which Is now in the hands of the council committee on street lighting. Mr. Schurlg has been at work on the ordlnaco for some tlmo and the proVisions - Visions of the ordinances In use In all the large cities have been considered for sug gestions of the most Improved practice. Ho regards the passage ot the ordinance as es pecially desirable In view of the vast amount ot electric construction that will be put 'In during the year. The ordinance provides that no construction shall be attempted until after piano have been submitted to the city electrician end a permit obtained. The electrician Is em powered to Inspect all work pravlous to and after Its completion and if it is satisfactory ho must Issue a certificate to that effect before - fore the current can bo turned on. It Is made unlawful for any person or corporation to rcako any excavation In any street or alloy for the purpose of placing poles with out first obtaining a written permit from Iho electrical department and this permit must state the location , height and slzo of the poles , as well as the amount , size and Insulation of ulro to bo strung. The olec- irlclan Is given full authority to sco that all work Is properly protected and to Inspect all construction at least once a year. If any construction la found to menace llfo or prop erty the owner will bo notified to make the necessary repairs within forty-eight hours and a flno of $10 la imposed for failure to comply with this notice.

At present tlio Instructor Is detailed by the Department of the I'latte and ho Is only relieved from duty during the time when ho Is occupied at the High school. Con sequently ho spends two afternoons a week at the school and during the remainder of the week ho Is expected to perform his usual garrison duties. In many other cities , where the school Is decidedly smaller , the Instruc tor Is regularly detailed 'by ' the War depart ment nnd Is able to give his entire tlmo to the work. It Is expected that the same ac tion can bo secured for the Omaha school. MnrliilltSditlwtlcH. .

TOLD By ONE OFTHE OLD-TIME REPORTtRS Morris O. Wnnl , Jfow a rro iicrotm Htmlnonn Mnn , TvllH of llln Xcmi Gntlicrliii ; In Omnhii Thirty Year * Airo. Nowopaper work In Omaha thirty years ago was pleasantly recalled yesterday after noon by the visit of Morris C. Ward to this city. Ho was a newspaper reporter In Omaha while It was still a wild west nrmy post , when General Sherman was stationed hero at the head of a post that was kept busy suppressing Indian outbreaks , and before the great "Overland Ilouto" was constructed. Ho was n colleague of Henry At. Stanley , and ns correspondents of eastern papers they used to gather many weird stories of the plains and send them out from here as spe cial dispatches from Fort Lnrnmlc , Chey enne or from the headwaters of the Missouri river. "Later as reporters on The Republican , during tbo regime of Major Balcombo , they worked together , lived together and achieved some measure of success. Mr. Ward has bean out of newspaper work for a number of years. Ho has for some tlmo past represented ono of the largest railway supply houses In the country , and makes his headquarters In Chicago. A tall , handsome gentleman of prepossessing ap pearance , ono would scarcely recognize In him the night police reporter of the Repub lican of thirty years ago. To a Boo re porter yesterday afternoon be talked In n most Interesting manner of his experiences hero In the pioneer days. lAmong other things ho said : "Omaha has grown wonder fully since I first saw It. I came here In the spring of 1S67 ; with some money , of an ad venturesome disposition and no settled plans for the Immediate future It was not atrango that I took to newspaper work. I began by writing letters for eastern papers. TOOK OUTSIDE ASSIGNMENTS. Henry M. Stanley was at that time here as the regularly accredited correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat , and did some special work for the Now York Herald. Ho and I lived together and worked together at that time. Ono of my first tripe was up the Missouri river to Its headwaters In 1867. It was aboard the old government boat "Sunset , " and wo were accompanied by a detachment of troops. After this trip I traveled through Montana , down through Wyoming to Cheyenne. The following year the Union I'aclflo reached Choycnno from Julesburg , moving Its wonderful aggregation of camp followers with It. Afterward the road was extended to Green river and then on to Promontory Point , Utah , where con nection was made with the Central Pacific. It was on the trip up the river from hero that 1 saw an Incident that struck mo as very pathetic. Tor some trifling offense a little colored boy had been put ashore In the wilderness by the captain of the boat ahead of us , and ho would surely have starved had wo not rescued him. I Jotted down some notes on the matter and sent them hack to Omaha by the next boat we met bound this way. Stanley took these notes , amplified them and made a really startling story out of It. .Ho was just going cast at that time , and took that story to New York and the Herald printed It for two and one half col umns. It was Just after that Stanley sailed for Liverpool and then for Zanzibar. A few years ago I met him In this country and recalled the incident , but ho said that he had made big spreads on so many little oc currences that he really did not remember this particular case. "Later I did reportorlal work on the Re publican in this city , and I remember that I then thought the peculiar composition of clay end earth that made up the streeta formed the very greatest substance of mua thnt was ever seen. I recall going out one evening to report a few small events , among them a church entertainment , and although I wore a pair of high-top boots with my troiibers tucked In , the mud was away above the tops of my boots before I reached the church. Although the streets are muddy now , the city Is well paved , and the streets on. a muddy day are really In better condi tion than those of Chicago. After leaving hero I went to Denver , and was on the reportorial - torial staff of the News for seven yearn. Then I returned to Chicago , and put In another period of seven ycare as railroad editor of the .Chicago Times. In this ca pacity I formed the acquaintance of a large number of railroad men , and from news paper work I went into the railway supply business. " RETURN OP PROSPERITY. "In the railway supply business , Mr. Ward , do you notice any signs of returned prosperity ? " "Most assuredly. I fiid evidences of It In my buslnc-ss continually. The railroads of the country are , ns a rule , running their shops on full tlmo , or nearly so , and the outside shops that build cars by contract for the railroads are nil busy. Thcro are twelve largo contract car building shops In the United States. Some of these have suf ficient orders now en hand to give all their employes work ratll the middle of next sum mer. Others have work enough to give the men employment until Juno 1. None are without good orders that Will keep their em ployes busy for some tlmo. "Within the last five months over 20,000 cors have been ordered to be built by the railroads of the United States. Since Presi dent McKInloy's Inauguration Uf wards of 30..000 cars have been ordered. Sines Juno 1 , 1S9C , the Baltimore & Ohio railroad has ordered over 10,000 freight COM. This largo number Is moro than double 'he t'rt-nUit order for railroad cars eve- placed by any American railroad within a corresponding period of time. It Is accounted for by two reasons , namely , the reorganization of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad and the efforts of Its management to place It In the b-.vst shape to handle business , and to ihu 1m proved business conditions throughout the country , making moro trains available. "But as further proof of the revival of trade , of which the railroads form an ex cellent Index , let moiglvc you eomc figures showing the numbcm > of cars ordered by various western railronda within tbo last few months. Here nnrn few of thorn : Kan- pas City , Plttsburg\Oulf , 1,700 cars ; Bur lington , 1,000 cars ; Ohpsapeake A Ohio , 1,000 ; Baltimore & Ohio , 7,000 care ; Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern , 1,000 ram ; Minneapolis & St. Louis * 300 ; IMo , 1,000 cars ; Norfolk & Western , 1,000 caret Louisville & Nash ville , 600 cars ; Chicago Great Western , 700 cars ; Union Pacific , Denver & GuU , 250 cars ; Chicago & West Mldh-lgnn , 250 cars ; Hlg Four , 1,000 cars ; See Line , 200 cars ; Pitts- t > urg & Eric , SOO cam ; Kansas City , Fort Scott & Memphis , 250 cars ; Iowa Central , 150 cars ; Canadian Pacific , 2,500 cars ; Cin cinnati , Hamilton ff.Diyton , 1,000 cars. The Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has placed orders with Hn own car shops for tibniit 1GOO cars to bo built during the spring and summer months , and has ordered about 1,000 additional cars from outside shops. Thcso nro some of the orders that have been placed slnco the revival of car con struction within the last half year. " Mrs. S. T. Rorer has never been In Ne braska before.

The new fast trains between Chicago and Denver en the Northwestern nnd Union Pa cific systems and on the BurllngUn arc being utilized by the railway postal service for mall trains. Alt the arrangements have been completed nnd the service Is proving to bo eminently satisfactory In every way. Most of the mall carried Is pouch mall , but at various points the trains pick up postal cars , In which the separation of the mail Is made. Train No. 5 en the Northwestern carries a mall car from Chicago to Council Bluffs , The crew In the car makes four separations for points on the Union Pacific. This Is ecnt In the night as express mall from Coun cil Bluffs to Grand Island , where It Is trans ferred to en castbound tra'n ' and Is dis tributed to po'nts between Grand Island and this city before 7 o'clock In the morning. The fast train Itoelf carries nothing but pouch mall to Julesburg , where It picks up another postal car nnd carries It to Denver. On the return trip the train again carries nothing but pouch mail until It reaches Grand Island. Thcro It gets a mall car , which It brings to this city , and In which mall Is distributed. There Is another postal car between this city and Cedar Rapids. On the Burlington a postal car Is at tached nt Chicago , but Is dropped at Galesburg - burg , 111. On this car distribution Is made fen all Important points In Iowa. Western mall from this city In connection with the Burlington fast mall Is sent out to Hastings , where It waits for the Denver flyer nnd Is carried Into Denver by It. On the eastbound flyer there Is a railroad postal service clear through from Denver to Chicago. The local postal service officials say that In this manner all points In this state arc satisfactorily covered by the flyer with the exception of a strip on the Burlington west of Lincoln to Hastings.
