NEW FREIGHT ROUTETO SOUND
Union- I'aclflo Maka Arrangement
with Northern l'nclllc to
Iteaeh tlx ortlivrcnt.
An Important freight alllanco has been
made by the Union l'aclllc and Its proprie
tary lines tho Oregon Short Lino and Oro
ron Hallway and Navigation company with
the Great Northern railway by which tho
ifalon Pacific will bo enabled to enter tho
field as an acttvo compotltor for business to
and from tho Pugct sound territory. An
nouncement to this effect was made Satur
day by Freight TrntTlc Manager Munroo and
the agreement camo about as the result ot
numerous conferences held during tho last
few weeks between Union Pacific and Great
Northern executive officers. -Freight for tho
now territory, comprising the Pugct sound
district, will be handled by tho Union Pa
cific and proprietary lines as far as Spo-
.knno and frotq there rtqkcn by .the .Great
''Northern 'to Its destination.
."This arrangement will mnko It possible
for tho Union Pacific to compute for In il
ncss In a territory of wldo extent which has
heretofore been lnnccc3slble," said an In
terested official. "Freight traffic from tho
Missouri river and eastern points to the
Fugct sound district Is quite considerable,
nd under this new alllanco tho Union Pa
cific expoclB to handlo Its sharo of the busi
ness. The bulk ot tho traffic consists ot
lumber and packing houso product ship
ments. The Union Pacific, by reason of
this agreement, Is now about ns woll fixed
as though It had a direct lino of Its own to
all Pacific coast terminals reached by the
Orcnt Northern, Port Townsend, Olympla,
Sow Whatcom, Lowell, Falrhavon, Everett
ind Edmonds."

Royal Baking Powder is the greatest of time and
labor savers to the pastry cook. Besides, it economizes,
flour, butter and eggs, and, best of all, makes the food
more digestible and healthful.
There arc cheap baking powders, made from
alum, but they are exceedingly harmful to
health. Their astringent and cauterizing
qualities add a dangerous element to food.

After Prolonged Negotiation Itnll-

to the City.
City Engineer Andrew Hosowatcr an
nounced to tho city council at Us general
commltteo meeting yesterday afternoon
that all property owners along tho north
approach to tho proposed Twenty-fourth
street viaduct havo signed an agreement to
waive damages on condition that tho ap
proach to tho bridge bo of steel rather than
of earth. For many months tho Southwest
Improvement club has been endeavoring to
sccuro this waiver that the viaduct might
bo constructed without delay, but heirs to
tho Heed and Shull estates wero not satis
fled with tho plans for, tho structure nuii
refused to walvo damages until yesterday,
when tho city engineer submitted to thorn
a plan which was entirely satisfactory.
Tho ordlnanco providing for tho condem
nation of land preparatory to grading rp
proaches will bo recalled and n now ordl
nanco will bo 'ntroduccd In tho council to
morrow night. It will authorize tho rail
road company to begin at once on the con
struction of tho viaduct. Under tho orig
inal plan thero was to havo been a dirt ap
proach ninety feet long at tho north end
of tho viaduct. Two stcol spans aro sub
mitted for this embankment In tho now
plan. Tho viaduct wilt bo so high that all
tho ground beneath It may bo used for

There was but a small attendance at tho
rogular meeting of tho North Omaha Im
provement club Monday night.
The committee on lights was Instructed
to take up with tho councilman tho mat
ter of a light In tho center of Kountzc
park, between tho two bridges, as there
Is a dangerous piece of roadway on Twen
tieth Btroot at this point and persons havo
driven ovor tho embankment.
Tho matter of tho Bluff tract park was
discussed at length, but no definite posi
tion was announced by tho club.
In the matter ot tho streot car scrvlco
on Amos avenuo, botween Twenty-fourth
nd Thirty-sixth streots, Councilman Karr
reported that tho council had decided, at
tho request of tho company, to' lay tho mat
ter over two weeks; that ho found, upon
examination, that tho streot car company
had n perpetual franchise nnd that tliu
council had no power to regulato tho tlmo
upon which cars must run; that tho only
way In which the service could bo restored
would bo to bold the company up In tho
council when they desired especial favors
from tho city. Tho stub service was de
nounced by everyone talking on tho sub
ject as but an excuso for a service, as tho
extra car will stop for no ono from tho
western terminus to tho eastern; that. In
stead of every other car going up tho hill,
In many, cases throe and four cars wero
turned Into tho barn and the stub at times
was filled with people' from three or four
cars.
A commltteo from the Prospect Hill Im
provement club requested tho club to ap
point a commltteo of three to meet like
committees from other club3 for the pur
pose of discussing proposed city charter
changes. The charter committee appointed
consists of Charles II. Qratton, E. E

LITTLE AFFAIR FOR FISHER

I'leiiNiirc.
The transmlssourlan Elks entertained
Jcromo B. Fisher of Jamestown, N. V., tho
grand exalted ruler ot tho order, nt a ban
quot at tho Millard hotel last night that
might aptly be described as a feast of wit
and a flow of soul. With clinking glasses,
popping corks and glowing cigars as con
commttnnts Elks with eloquence told sto
rlos that bristled with laughable Incidents
and created merriment at ono another's ex
pense, whllo Elks with mora ability to
feel and apprcclato than to tako part in
the badlnago found attitudes of case about
the banquet board and furnished tho ap
plause.
Altogether there wero nearly half a hun
drcd members at tho gathering, most of
them having come from Council Bluffs,
South Omaha and this city. Many of tho
guests from fnrthor away came to attend
the memorial services Sunday and remained
to meet their exalted ruler on a gladder oc
caslon. Thero wero many speakers of
prominence, among them being George P,
Cronk, tho toastmaster; Frank Hanlon,
Lysle I. Abbott, John Keith of North Platte,
John N. Baldwin of Council Bluffs, Gcorgo
Moore and Jeromo1 B. Fisher. Tho talks
were not toasts and responses properly, as
tho banquet was Informal. Mr. Flshor'3
talk was brief nnd chiefly anecdotal, being
concluded by an expression of plensuro at
finding unexpected progress nmong the
lodges of the west on the occasion of his
first visit boyond tho Missouri river.

Sonic, lint It Won't Cure Duiiilriin.
If your hair Is brittle and thinning you
havo dandruff. Tho merely scouring of tho
scalp of tho loose scales won't cure dan
druff; becauso dandruff Is nothing but
scales of scalp being thrown up by a pes
ttferous llttlo germ In burrowing Its way
to tho root ot tho hair, where It saps tho
vitality, causing fnlllng hair and, In time,
baldness. Now you can't stop dandruff, nor
fnlllng hair, nor prevent baldnoBs unless
you destroy that germ; and tho only prep
aration that enn do It Is tho new scientific
dlccovory, Newbro's Herplcldo. In fact, no
other hair preparation claims to kill the
dandruff germ all of them will clean tho
scalp; soap and water will do that, but
only Newbro's Herplcldo gets nt the root of
tho trouble and kills tho dnndrufl germ.

should bo dono ns an accommodation to
tho Inspector who Issued tho permit with
tho expectation that tho board would pay
tho customary fco.
Carl E. Herring, attorney for tho board,
expressed tho opinion that tho payment of
this feo might result In tho defeat of tho
Judgment which tho board holds against
tho city. Ho Btated that the board has do-
clnrcd repeatedly that tho fco should be
deducted from this Judgment and advlnod
that nothing bo dono In tho matter until
ho consults tho city nttornoy for tho pur-
poso of adjusting tho differences between
tho city and tho board. Tho resolution
was tabled by & vote ot 6 to 8. Tho mem-

who supported tho resolution were: Bu
