Ilurllnghain, was stuck In . snowdrift at
tho point stated,
Thn passenger train got under full head
way nnd nn account of the blinding blizzard
none of tho trainmen on cither train knew,
of tho Impending accident.
Tho engineer nnd fireman on the freight
jumped at tho moment of collision. En
gineer George McMlllcn of tho passenger

man Fred Jansen of tho passenger was not
no fortunate. Ho was caught In tho wreck
of his engine and scalded to death by es

For Home Buyers
Said a real estato man tho other day:
"So far as my cxperlonco goes, I bcllovo
that from 30 to BO per cent of "the pcoplo
who nro now renting homes In Omaha aro
figuring on owning a homo of their own.
When I advertiso a pleco of residence prop
crty for sale I always get responses aud
many of them come from pcoplo whom I
should least expect to bo In tho market."
Asked why thero wero not more sales, ho
replied that many of theso Inquirers had
not tho money necessary for a first payment
on tho purchase price. "With our slow
foreclosure proceedings In Nebraska we
ennnot sell on tho terms of nothing down
nud so much a month as has been commonly
tiono In Chicago and other towns. If wo
wero to soil to-a man who wns willing to
pay merely rent and Interest wo should
find that oven tho small payments thus
provided did not como regularly In many
enscs and tho property would como back on
our hnnds. Now, In most states this might
be all right. If n streak of 111 luck over
takes a man after ho has begun to buy a
homo nnd ho has to glvo up his placo tho
man who mado tho snlo would not object
If ho had to make tho salo over again,
but when It takes nuywhero from threo to
seven yenra to recover possession nfter
foreclosurn proceedings nro commenced, as
It docs hero under present conditions, nn
owner Is very enreful whom ho soils to and
what terms ho sells on.
"Incidentally, I bcllovo that If our fore
closuro laws wero nmeuded on tho lines now
being advocated, we could very quickly turn
Omaha into n city of homes. Thero Is every
reason why, with tho present condition of
real cstnte, people should live In their own
homes rather than pay rent. Whllo tho
condition of tho laws, however, makes It
possible for n purchaser on tho deferred
payment plan to retain possession rent freo
for n long term nfter he has censed to mako
his payments regularly, sales without n
substantial cash deposit aro hound to bo
fow."
As a general rule property owners
even If they nro nuxtous to unload aro
not satisfied with less than about SO or In
somo cases 25 per cent of the purchase
price In ensh. Thoro aro othors who will
tnko 10 per cent say $100 on a $1,000 cot
tageand thero aro plenty of men on small
salaries who can pave up $100 in order to
Itot n homo thnt ho can call his own.
Ono agent who has tried especially to
reach this particular class of buyers tho
man who wants a cheap home nnd on easy
payments thinks that thorn aro many such
men n Omaha who do not know that thero
nro owners willing to sell to thorn on terms
that they can meet. "Probably If they
ktmw tills better than they do more of
thera would bo willing to get together tho
few dollars ncccs3:iry to mako a start. A

tho agent, and, looking up, he added: "Who

In theso days of low Interest there Is a
largo number of property owners who pre
fer to sell on monthly payments rather
than to tnko cash In full, for tho cash
might hao to bo Idle, whllo If It Is com
ing 'to him In monthly Instalments ho
would bo getting his C per cent Interest.
In this connection there Is n feature of
tho market which has perhaps not received
tho attention that It deserves. A fow years
ago n man who would pay straight cash
for a picco of property could get a 10 or
sometimes a 20 per cent discount In the prlco
in nearly every caso. Now such cases are
rare. Somo owners will still sell for lower
prices for cash, but speaking generally the
monthly payment man is In as good n po
sition In tho market now as tho all cash
man.

Tho misunderstanding was duo to tho
tnuueso authorities granting the snmo con

enables Great Brltlan to proceed with the
construction of tho railroad siding, but If
Russia's concession proves to bo earlier
than that of Great Britain tbo latter Is to
acKnowledgo tho claims of Russia.
Tho Foreign ofllce, however, has no In

ment of an arrnngement having been made
nnd the otllclnls aro rather Inclined to doubt
that such nn arrangomcnt has been arrived
at. They say tho original concession was

Of that you can bo assured." This state

Foreign offlce. Continuing, this ofllclal
said;
"Russia will not advance and will act
slowly, but having taken up the position
sho now occupies sho will bo moved there
from only by force. England has been
unsuccessful In her efforts to secure tho aid
of other powers to attack Russia's position
regarding Manchuria nnd is not likely to

England will go to war over u railroad
siding with tho Transvaal question still

"1 hnvo now used It for thrco season,

Miss Mary Coats.
Diseased nerves nro traceable directly
to poor digestion, and poor digestion Is
directly traceable to catarrh. With tlm
slightest catarrh of tho stomach no out.
can have good digestion.
Very few of the many women who have
catarrh of tho stomach suspect whnt their
real troublo Is. They know they beleh
nfter meals, hnvo sour stomnch, a sensa
tion of weight or heaviness, u fullness, Ir
regular appetite, drowsiness, gnawing, emp
ty acniintlons, occasional pnlu they nil
know this; but they do not know thnt
their troublo Is catarrh of tho stomach. If
they did they would take Pcrqna.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.
As soon as Peruna removes catarrh from
tho stomach the digestion becomes good,
appetite regular, nerves strong, nnd troublo
vanishes. Perunn strengthens wenlt nerves
not by temporarily stimulating them, hut
by removing tho cause of weak nerves
poor digestion. This Is tho only euro tint
Insts. Uemovo tho cause. Naturo will do
the rest. Peruna removes tho cause.
If jou do not derive prompt nnd satis
factory results from tho uso of Perunn,
write nt onco to Or. Hartman, giving n
full statement of your case and ho will bo
pleased to glvo you his valuablo ndvlco
