The Western Electrical company of Omaha

Fish Commissioner Lew May aubmltted an
estimate , aa Instructed at the last meeting
of the board , showing the probable cost ot
making a Ash exhibit In connection with the
exhibit to be made la the Government buildIng -
Ing by the United States Fish commission.
Mr. May stated that the government com
mission bad offered to allow the Nebraska
commission to occupy several of the tanks
In the acquarlum and he based an estimate
on thle fact , saying that $2,500 would bo
required to make a creditable exhibit of
Nebraska fish.
Considerable dlscuralon followed the pres
entation of thte report , the members of
the board agreeing that the condition of
tbe funds at their disposal would not allow
an expenditure of this amount. Mr. May
aald , In reply to questions , that ho could
not promise a creditable exhibit with $1,260 ,
and tbe board concluded this would bo the
maximum amount that could bo devoted to
that purpose. It was finally decided to re
fuse to make any appropriation for a fish
exhibit.
After passing upon A number ot bills tbe

tbe Traiumlsslsstppl and International Ex
position. This , however , Is not the only
space that the county will occupy , as 600 feet
ban been assigned In the Horticultural build.
Inx. In addition to this , the county will oc
cupy epace In the Apiary and Dairy build-
Inns. Wltn thlfl space the commissioners
feel convinced that they can convince the ex
position visitors that Douglas Is the banner
county In the transmtsslsslppl region. Plana
for making the display have not yet been
oertected , but they have gone so far aa to
convince the promoters of tbe exposltlea that
a rare treat Is In store.
Commissioners Harte and Hofeldt are re
garded as the agricultural members ot the
county board and to them the other mem
bers look tor unique designs. While these
two men have not yet decided upon just how
they will arrange the agricultural exhibit ,
they have some Ideas that meet with the
approval of all ot the members ot tbe board
end which will bo carried out In every par
ticular.
The space will extend from floor to celling
and will be covered with grains , seed ? and
grasses. One design will be a map ot tbe
county worked principally In corn. The body
of the map will be In yellow corn , with the
section lines In white. These sections will
bo subdivided , showing the location of the
tittne. Tbo farms will be worked In white
corn , with the farm houses and buildings In
grains of a red color- The streams will bo
In blue'corn ? while the reads and thorough
fares will bo of'grass seed. This map , If the
original Idea Is carried out , will be about
20x40 feet In dimensions.
The central figure In the Douglas exhibit
will be ; a statue , designated as "King Corn. "
This will beet heroic size and will be ma.le
entlrslv.Df'.cornjindiln different colors. He
will tac'cupy'.a' throne constructed of the
lame majerlaif the Colors being blended to
prodUce a p > aslnif > * ffect. Over the throne
will bo constructed a canopy of products of
the soil , the whole to bo artistically draped
with corn leaves and stalks. About tbo
king will be' numerous pages and subjects ,
molt of which will be of corn , though some
ot them will be constructed of sugar beets
ind gralps. _
The * ceiling space will be decorated
oconform , with the general wall decorations
nd corn will be the feature , though other
grains will figure to some extent. The plan
as now outlined ta to hang a great bunch
of corn "from thecehler and radiating from
this In every direction will be huge corn
stalks , the vacant Ypacea to be filled with
heaves of wheat , oats , rye and barley.
The work of preparing the decorations Is
well under way and will be perfected within
the next two weeks. . Tbe experts who were
appointed at the last 'meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners have commenced
upon their labors and are now out In the

AnnANGiNOianiGATio > EXHIBIT.
DniTNon Comity Men Come to Con
clude Their Yrsrotlntlonx.
Georce B. Darr , J6hn F. Kulz and E. H.
Cleveland , three residents of Dawson county ,
are In the city to make final arrangements
( or the Irrigation exhibit to be made by
that county. These three men constitute
the Exposition commission appointed by
the Board of County Commlssolners of Dawson -
son county to have full charge of the ex
hibit , which Is to Illustrate the Irrigation
method employed In that county. Mr. Darr
lu a banker and business man , Mr. Kutz Is
a civil engineer and Mr. Cleveland Is a mem-
> er of the Board of County Commissioners.
Their present trip Is ( or the purpose of clos-
n all arrangements ( or , the space to be
used ( or the exhibit and start the work at
once.
The space to bo occupied by this exhibit
will be a tract of Aground containing about
our acres , lying directly west of the Dairy
mlldlng. On this ground will be produced
i miniature relief map of the Irrigated dls-
rlct of Daweon county , showing the Platte
river and the ditches and laterals by means
of which the fields are watered. A part
of this land will be utilized by the Agrlcul-
ural department of the ( ederal government
n showing cultivated grasses and ( oreeti
rccs. The remainder will be planted with
Nebraska cereals and shrubbery , and these
will bo cultivated during the season , show-
ng the effect of the system of Irrigation
used by Dawson county on the cultivation
of crops.
The members of the committee visited the
exposition grounds ( or the first time to see
he ground on which their exhibit will be
operated , end they expressed the greatest
surprise and gratification at the magnitude
of the scale on which operations are being
carried on. The beauty of the main court !
appealed very strongly to them , and they
said they had not been prepared to eee such
substantial and elegant buildings.
INSTITUTE FOH INDIAN TEACHERS.
Prof. Hellninnin Prvfero Oninlin to
Colorado Spring * for Mee < lnnr.
Pro ( . W. N. Hellmann , United States su-
> erntendent ! of Indian instruction , was In
ho city yesterday looking for a location ( or
the institute in this line that will occur next
summer. He ID autbbrized to chocso between
3maha and Colorado Springs ( or the mcet-
ng , and on account of the exposition he la
ncllned to Omaha before going any further ,
de cannot commit himself on account of hU
official relations to the government , ' but < Jie
does say that on this particular occasion Le
is willing to/recommend Omaha In prefer
ence to Colorado Springs.
"Thin meeting "will be ( or three \weeks \
after the first of July and it will bo ( or the
advancement of the education ot the In
dians , " said Dr. Hellmann. "There are only
-two places in the country where the con-
grees can be held ; they are Omaha and Col
orado Springs. Such meetings have been
held at Omaha , Ogden and Pueblo. The last
meeting waa held in Omaha last year when
the attendance was about 250. There are
about 1,800 educators connected with the
jovernment's Indian school department , and
I will venture to say that at least one-third
o ( thla whole enrollment o ( Instructors will
attend the ( orthcomlng convention. I will
proceed ( rom here to Colorado Springs under
instructions , but on account of the exposi
tion I think that tbo only place to hold the
convention is In Omaha. Otherwise I cannot
express m > il ( . "
Weather Molten * Arrangement * .
The United States Weather bureau is
making preparations to install an exhibit at
the exposition which will show the prac
tical operation of a department of the
weather service devoted to the investiga
tion of the movements and conditions of
the upper titrata of the atmosphere. That
this is the intention of the bureau was set
forth In a letter received by President Wat
tles ( rom Charles K. Roblneon , in charge
of the aerial observations of tbo bureau.
Mr. Robinson asks ( or space on which to
locate a small building about twelve ( eet
equare , which Should be surrounded by an
open space about 300 ( eet square. In this
epace it is proposed to fly the huge kites
which narry into the upper strata o ( the air
the instruments used ( on recording the con
ditions of those regions.
These Inctrurcentn are generally of the
self-recording pattern and Indicate the tem
perature and humidity of the upper - atmosphere
phere , the direction and velocity of the wind
and various other data of value in the formu
lation of weather forecasts.
The epace desired ( or this purpose will
be supplied by the exposition management
and this will add another to 'the already
long list of special exhibits to be made by
the departments of the government outi'ldo '
of tbe Government building.

S. B , Turner of Alnsworth , Neb. , reports
hat northern Nebraska Is In a very flourlsh-
ng condition. That portion ot the state Is
crgely devoted to cattle and sheep raising
ind the cattle and sheep markets have not
jeen as good In many years aa they are at
> resent. Mr. Turner eays that the advance
n the prlco of sheep has been pbcaomenal ,
sheep bringing from $1.50 to $2 more per
lead than they did three years ago. Mr.
Turner thinks , however , that sheep are not
apt to continue so strong In price , because
so many ara being rataed , and the fact that
: hey mature in one year leads dealers to
hlnk that tbe demand will soon be sup-
> lled. Not so wltb cattle , cs tbreo years are
equlred to get a steer ready for the mar-
cet. The ranges In northern Nebraska are
n flne condition and the stockmen are ex
pecting a good grass crop.

It is getting along towards tbo time of year when
your winter underwear will go on strike , because it
lias to work longer than your winter overcoat , and
when that time conies The Nebraska will bo ready to
show you a line of spring underwear that would do
credit to the largest store in the largest city in the
land. An immense line. A line that was bought
with the special object of serving the great Trans
Misissippi gatherings and showing them that right
here in Omaha they can get as large a line , as great
a variety , as fine an assortment as can be purchased
anywhere , and at prices that are lower than any
other store in the country would ask for the same
goods. 25c a garment will be our price for balbriggan -
gan underwear , in natural , in mottled , in normal , in
buff and fancy shades. 36c a garment will be our
price for natural and fancy underwear in fine mace
yarn. 45c a garment will be our price for beautiful
goods in plain and fancies and mixtures with full
silk finish and silk trimmed and at 50c and 65c a gar
ment we will show lines that would be difficult to do
justice to in print. We are going to do the under
wear business of the Trans Mississippi country this
spring and we've got the goods and the prices to do
it with.
