ROADBED FOR NEW TRACKS1
Union Pacific Pill * in Ground Around Its
New Depot
THOUSANDS OF YARDS OF EARTH USED

Mtrncfcil Over Seventh Street
General I'lnn of Work.
Enormous quantities of earth had to bo
removed to fill In the tract of land west of
the Union Pacific bridge that the ground
might be used tor trackage purposes , and
to secure It portions of two streets which
stood high have been lowered almost to
grade. Ono contract for earth with which
to flll In the low land between the bridge
and the now union depot , north ot the
present tracks , calls for the removal of
about 135,000 cubic yards. Of this amount
20,000 cubic yards wore taken from the site
for the now Pacific school , and the rest from
Mason street , between Eleventh nnd Thir
teenth , and from Twelfth , bclwcen the rail
road tracks and Pacific street.
The southeast corner of Twelfth nnd
Mason streets now stands forty-two feet
above the street level as a result of the
excavations. When this contract for earth
shall bo filled , it la believed the needs of
the now track district will have been met.
The contractor thinks he will have It out
In a couple ot weeks , with favorable weather.
Another part of the work Involved in
building up this now roadbed between the
brldgo and the now union depot which Is
Important is the erection of an additional
brldgo ov r Seventh street. Heavy walls of
masonary have been built to support the
bridge , which will bo north ot Iho olher
Blruclures of the some kind over this street.
These walls are about thlrly feet high and
on top of them there Is a back wall three
feet high , which will stand between the
grade and the steel frame of the bridge. The
east wall Is 120 feet long and the west 130
feet at the base and each about ninety feet
at the ' .op. They are ten feet thick at the
bottom nnd flvo feet thick at the grade level.
This bridge and the filling In lo build a new
roadbed have been made necessary to secure
a stralghtor approach to the new union
depot nnd to aid In the general plan for
eliminating many of the curves In Ihe Union
Paclflc Iracks between the Missouri river
hrldge and South Omaha. The bridge across
Seventh street will only carry two tracks ,
bui otter crossing to the west side there
will bo many swllches by which the trains
of the different roads can be thrown to their
respective track accommodations at the
depot. It will bo several weeks before this
new grading will bo in condition for truck
laying.
VVOHIC IK PROGRESS ON NEW MNES.
Itiirllnfrton ExtenHlnnn Open New
Country.
It Is announced at the Burlington offices
In this city that work Is now In progress
on the line from Alliance , Neb. , to Brush ,
Col. , as well us upon the Wyoming exten-
lion. The two extensions are classed under
the same contract , two different companies
being Incorporated because the branches
would penclralo into different stales. It
Is also announced that both lines will be
completed and ready for operation by next
fall If nottilng happens to delay the con.
tractors. Laborers to work on the new
grades are being shipped west on almost
every train. The right of way has been
secured for nearly the entire length of both
branches.
Anolher Important Item , especially with
nil lines constructed by the Burlington , Is
the establishing of new towns. Many or
tbeso will be built along the two branches ,
and some of them will become pretentious
villages. It Is predicted that these two
lines , provided there shall be no other con-
stn.ctlon In lhat section , will make wonder
ful development in that part of Nebraska.
The farmers In the Irrigated territory
through which the lines pass have had no
trarkot for their product , except that cre-
; d by local consumption , while even the
cutllo feeding industry lias not been en
gaged in to the full measure on account ot
the great distance to a railroad. At Alli
ance and Brush , where supplies are ship
ped for use along the proposed new lines ,
n boom In business has resulted unlike any
thing ever experienced by the residents of
these towns.
I'niililnflr Depot Construction.
Threats by the Missouri to do greal
damage to all railroad property within Its
reach has not deterred work on the contract
for the erection of the freight depot for t > jo
Omaha Bridge and Terminal company ai
Eleventh and Chicago slreels. Thai vlclnlly
has been the ocene of much activity during
the last two -weeks. The old buildings
which occupied the site have been sold am
moved away. The trenchcw for the founda
tion of the depot have been dug , and con
crete Is now being put in as the base for
the heavy -walls. It will take about three
months to complete the building , and by
that time tbo tracks leading to tbo clepo
will be completed and ready for use by
trains. It to believed the transfer business
of the company will be vastly increase !
when the depot shall be completed , as it is
located so near the business center of the
city as to make It an advantage to have
freight transferred by the upper bridge.
Sixteenth Htreet Vlmliirt
At Union Paclflc headquarters It Is said
nothing Is known when work will begin on
the now Sixteenth street viaduct. It Is no
believed any stops will be taken toward re
placing the old structure before Juno 1 , The
officers who would have this matter directly
In charge have been away so much of late
looking after matters pertaining to proposed
now lines In the west they have been unable
to give their attention to the details ot con
struction of the viaduct. Their time now I
still further occupied by these outside matters
tors , and It may bo two or three weeks be
fore they will have opportunity to think o
Improvements nearer home. Alter deciding
upon a. time for beginning work upon the
new viaduct It will bo several weeks before
enough material can be secured to warran
any oxtenalvo preparations for the destruc
tlon ot the old viaduct.
Water IJo - Mttlo DntnnKe.
Now that the water Is receding from the
right-of-way of the Illinois Central on the
cast side of the river , contractors are preparing
paring to renew operations. The damage.
to the grade between Council Bluffs an ,
Loveland has not been so heavy as rnlgh
liave been supposed. It will be quickly re
paired. At no otbur point on the line wa
work Interfered with at all , and the urm

II it 11 ill ii K" .
OMAHA , April 26. To the Editor of The
lee : The Bee's editorial on the proposed
hange in our fire limits Is correct and to
tie point. If there Is a place In the United
tales needing a large Are limit with strict
nforcement It Is Omaha , as we have enough
rame structures for the next ten years , and
t Is lime wo were beginning to Improve the
general appearance of the city. If the clly
: ouncll and clly officials generally will visit
1. Paul , Minneapolis , Kansas City , and
bove all , Denver , and then come back and
ake a look at Omaha they will feel ashamed
f the poor class of buildings outside of the
business center and a few flne residences
vo have here.
Brick Is now being made here as good and
s cheap as In any city In the country , all
hlngs considered. Their manufacture Is al
most enllrely labor , and while the brick-
makers are now employing about 400 men
buy ought to have at least 1,000 at work.
his would mean a great deal more to umana
o bo spent among our business men.
Lumber and nails have been advancing In
price of late , and every dollar Ubed In such
materials Is sent away from home.
Think of our council giving permission to
violate our present fire limits law and allow-
ng sheet Iron and frame shacks to be built
o endanger the city and still further dis
grace Its appearance. If owners of lots re
use to build decent buildings , let them keep
out of the way of progressive citizens who
are willing to erect good , substantial
structures whenever they can be rented.
Jut so long as cheap frame shacks are al-
owed to disgrace our streets there will bo
no use for good buildings. W. R. N.

Tallin lit the \ooii Meeting.
The noon meeting at the Young
iten's Christian Association building was
conducted by Henry Oslrom and John
? . Hlllls of Indiana , traveling evanccl-
sts , who have been remarkably successful
n their work In a number of western cities.
Mr. Hlllls has a magnificent baritone voice
and he sang a number of selections In ccm-
lectlon with the service. Mr. Oslrom spoke
irlefly on the spiritual work of the Young
lien's Christian Association , He declared
that the association does many things that
cannot be put Into statistics. As an organ
ization It Is peculiarly a preventer. One
cannot say In public what the Young Men's
Christian Association gymnasium has done
'or ' young boys. He condemned Ihe state
ment lhat the association detracts from In-
: orest in the churches. It IB the open door
of the church. "If wo had more religion ,
or better still , more Chrlstlanily , we might
rceep all church doors open dally. But wo
liave not the moral muscle for that so we
unite them all In one building and call It
the Young Men'n Christian Assoclallon , " ho
remarked.

All possibility of n recurrence of the
flood caused by the rise In the Missouri
river , appears to have passed as the water
Is receding at nil points above Kansas CItj ,
where n Blight rise ot .4 ot n foot Is re
corded. At Sioux City the river fell .6 of
n foot during the twenty-four hours ondliiB
yesterday morning , leaving It now 7.5 feet
below the danger mark. The fall at this point
was more pronounced , reaching 1.4 feet , BO
that now the water Is 3.5 feet below ttio
daiig'er line. At St. Joseph the fall was
only .1 of a foot.
According to the river bulletin the river
IB falling rapidly everywhere except at
Kansas City. The Indications arc that It
will continue to fall , and that there will
ho no further trouble. Anticipating this ,
tlio weather bureau announces that tlie spe
cial dally river bulletin , which has been
Issued since the inception of the overflow ,
will bo discontinued.
Along the river botloms the water Is re
ceding rapidly , a decrease of ten Inches be
ing reported from Cut Off lake during
Thursday night. This lowering leaves the

Mrs. W. A. McCutchln , who was killed In

who was accustomed to spend her summers
In Omaha , has three nephews living In this
city. Their names are Hurt , Merle nnd
Benjamin Hush , and their homo Is near
Twenty-seventh and Parker streets. Word
of Mrs. McCutchln's death was received by
Ihcm In a telegram giving meager details ot
the storm's result.
The McCutchlns lived on a farm one mile
south of St. Edward , almost In the center
of the cyclone's path. Every building upon
the premises was razed to the ground nnd
Mrs. McCulchlri was killed by being struck
by a flying beam.
W. H. Lambert , who lives at 614 South

family named Russell , who escaped death
In the tornado by seeking safety In a cavo.
All the buildings on Mr. Lambert's property
were destroyed and most of the stock killed.
Reports from the vicinity Indicate that the
loss by the farmers will amount to many
thousand dollars , the wheat crop for miles
around having been totally destroyed.

At the Orpheuni matinee this afternoon
the regular bill will bo presented. It is
rife with admirable vaudeville features and
has won much favor at every performance
during the week. It Is distinctly a fascinat
ing matlnco attraction. The satirical and
soclaP comedy , "For Reform , " . Is delight
fully funny and is splendidly played by the
gifted artists , Hugh Stanton am" Florence
Modena. Walerbury brothers nnd Tenney
have a musical comedy act which Is simply
slde-splllllng. The Pantzer trio have nt-
Iracted a largo share of breathless atteu-
llon by their wonderful feats of contortion.
The other features are of an equally high
grade nnd complete a bill of remarkable
brightness nnd fascination.
This afternoon n matinee performance of
"On nnd Off , " Charles Frohman's cleverest
of farce comedies , will he given at Boyd's.
The last performance will be given tonight.
As a matinee attracllnn this piece was the
favorite In New York during Its long run
at Ihe Frohman theaters. E. M. Holland
and Fritz Williams are New York's favorite
comedians , especially with the rnallnee
patrons. Women always enjoy a ploy in
which the plot deals with the troubles of
Ihelr own pex. In "On and Off" they can
see women In trouble , of a laughable kind ,
to tlvelr hearts' content. In "On and Off"
the plot is so complicated that it Is im
possible to anticipate the denouement of
the final act. The winking girl Is a big
hit In this piece , as is the excitable French
man , Patly Du Clam.
Herbert Kelsey and Efflo Shannon will bo
seen at Boyd's Thursday evening In "Tho
