"Hotel keeping In Omaha In tho '303
nnd '60n wasn't exactly what It Is now,''
,ald J. C. HlRbeu of Ileatrlcc, who Is lu
Omaha visiting hla tun, Ira 1'. lligbee.
"In thoso days most ot tho patrons of the
Jiotehi wcro minora and ..ranchmen who
weren't ued to beds nnd preforrtd blan
kotti on tho lloor to a bod provided with
nheots und other products ot civilization.
It was nothing unusual to put three men
lu a bed, and rooms ot any slzo AlwayH
contained three or four beJn. When I
was running tho Farnam house o had
Jlfty beds In liftcun room. und our
jiatrons were pretty glad to get any sort
ot accommodations we could provide for
them."
Mr. Hlgbee flint came to Omaha from
Glenn's Kails, N. Y., in 1S57. lie came
up the river from St. louls and spent two
weeks lu Omaha with his brother-ln-lnw,
tho lato ex-Senator 1'addock. Tho town
was too new for him nnd ho went back
to Now York, but returned to Nebraska In
ISCI and asiumed control of tho Farnam
Iiouse, which stood on Harney street, Just

in the early days was called tho Wyoming

city. Along Farnam, Douglas and Har
ney streets there were a few framo biul
nruft houses and three hotels. The Tre
niont houso was a framo building on tho
sltn now occupied by the Nebrnska thea
ter; tho Douglnn was a smnll frame Intel
at tho corner of Thirteenth nnd Harney
streets, and the Hamilton houso was at
tho corner of Douglau and Fourteenth
streets. I stopped nt the Tremont houise
and tried to make mjself bellovo that I
would like tho new town, but tho longer
1 stayed the less I liked It. Many of tho
people lioro then wero stranded and
couldn't get away. I had plenty of monoy
to get east nnd left, never expecting to
I return,

"Bcven years later I caught the western
fever again and camo to Omaha to talto
chargo of the Farnam house. It wasn't
much of a hotol, and I shall never forget
1 what my wife said when s,ho flint saw It.
A look of disgust camo over her face as
sho remarked, 'That old sawmill In
(llenn'fl Falls In a better looking building.'
An tho rickety old hack that hauled u
I from the landing approached tho hotel 1
I saw a lot of bedclothlng spread on tho
ground In the back yard. A colored man
, was working in tho yard nud I asked him
What tho bedclotblnc na ilnlnir nn Mm

" 'A man that was layln' on them clothes
Jes' died of smallpox and I reckon thoy
need n llttlo nlrln" out,' ho replied.
"I agreed with the negro that eomothlng
ought to b'e dono, and gave the house a
thorough fumigation beforo my family on-

"Our guests weren't a very stylish lot, but
i thoy mado up In wealth and health what
they lacked In nppoarnuce. At flint wo didn't

wo Boan learned to know them. I Khali
never forget an incident that occurred whllo
I wnH running tho Farnum houso. My
nephew, (5us Hlgbeo Jus is tho mayor of

equally bad. fins went out to meet them,
but when ho saw what they looked like ho
camo back Into tho office.
" 'Thero are some beggars out there, uncle;
I guess wo'd better not lot them come Into
tho bouao had we?' he said.
"I laughed and told him they probably had
gold dust enough In that old wagon to buy
nil tho hotels in Oniahu. And I was right.
They began to unload that wagon and ono
of the men produced a carpet sack with so
much gold dust In It ho could hardly carry
It urtalrs. After that Oub never Judged the
wealth of western people by their clothes,
'nnllllllfllt oC Ciolil Dual.
"Wo used to take care of tho gold dust for
our customers. Wo had trunks In which wo
stored It in my wife's room and thero wero
nights when wo probably had $100,000 worth
of tho yellow metal In our caro. In theso
days no hotel keeper would dnro to keep
so much gold In hln houfe, but thero was not
much stealing In those days and It was
mighty uncomfortable for any thief who was
caught.
"After keeping tho Farnam house for four
years, .1 took tho Casement house, now the
Henderson bouse, nt tho corner of Ninth
and Farnam streets. Wc changed the namo
to tho Wyoming houso and run it under that
name until 1871, when I quit tho hotel busi
ness. George Francis Train and many of the
other men interested In tho Union Pacific
used to spend much tlmo at tho Wyoming
house, nnd I wns well acquainted with all
the men prominent In tho Omaha of thoso
days. Some people used to say that Train
was crazy, but I nevor thought ho. Ho al
ways seemed to bo crazy In tho way that
benefitted Tialn the most. Although ho was
eccentric I never had any trouble with him,
nnd ho wns as polite a guest as I ever had
In my hotel."
Omaha's first hotel was built In tho early
'50s by the Nebraska and Council Dluffs
Ferry company,' which took Biich nn actlvo
part In the beginning ot the city. It was a
log cnbln eighteen feet long by slxteon
feet wldo and stood at the corner of Twelfth
and Jackson streets,
In 1S51 tho City hotel was built at the
southwest corner of Harney and F.Iovonth
streets. It was a framo building one story
In height and w,ih the only rival of tho St.
Nicholas until 1SJ5, when the Douglas house
was opened on tho southwest corner of

In our holols on wheels for that Is what
dining cars aro In many ropeets."
Tho man who takes his placo at a dining
ear table does not realize what an amount
of work must bo done and how much money
must bo Invested to make the scrvlco pos
sible. Tablo linen, glass, silver, cutlery and
kitchen utensils aro kept In largo quanti
ties and tho number of pieces needed aro de
livered on requisition to each car and are
charged as they would bo to an Individual.
As they show signs of wear or ore broken
they aro replaced from tho stock on hand,
so that tho quantity and the quality nlways
remain the same. Tho sliver is charged to
tho waiters on duty nt the tables and Is ro
turncd and nccnunted for after earh trip.
"Our breakago Is greater than It Is at
ordinary hotel tables," said a superintend
ent of tho service, "hut considering the fact
that some of our meals aro served at tho
rate of sixty-five, mllifl an hour that la no
wonder. Wo loso very little by theft, but
occasionally u foreign passenger will tako n
coffee spoon or a toothpick holder as a
souvenir of tho trip."
To keen tho cars well supplied with these
articles is a comparatively easy task, but '
tho difficult part of tho business Is tho food.
"Wo strive to servo the same class of
meals as ono may find In any Hrst-clahs
hotel nnd In order to do so we purchaso tho
best wo can find," said Mr. McKco. "Wo
run the station restaurants at certain points
and at those places wo do all our baking, bo
that with the exception ot wnflles and buns
we bako nothing on Hie trains, hut every
thing oleo on our bills of fnro Is prepared
on board."

Tho commlFflary department has officers at

tho car, and as soon as tho article Is used
It is placed to tho car's credit, so that at

that tho actual cost of the food Is about 50
cents. To this miikt he added tho pay of

ing tho kitchen at frequent Intervals and a
number of other small hut sure expense.
The cars, tho supply Marks and everything
pertaining to the pervlro aro Inspected regu
larly by o Mr era who ore appointed for that
purpose, but there aro other Inspections of
which tho dining car crew has no knowledge.
Passengers tako their places at tho tables
whoso only object secins to bo to get their
money's worth In food, hut they aro roally
taking nolo of tho condition of tho waiters'
coats and boots; they scrutinize the napkin
and the sliver, and pay clom attention to
the manner In uhlcli tho orders are executed.
Other patrons of the car look for defects In
the food and noto tho slzo of tho portions;
there nro Inspectors also who mako thu tip
question n specialty.
"If a man Is well served and wishes to tip
tho waiter wo do not objeect to his doing
so," Bald tho superintendent, "but wo would
not kocp a man In our employ who would
linger over a tnblo and pretend that ho wns
busy whllo ho wan really waiting for a tip,
nor would wo krop a man who would servt
a man from whom ho expected nothing less
expeditiously than tho man who was 'holding
a quarter.' "
