"If the people of Omaha make known to

public demands It. I have been criticized
for being liberal and I proposo to adopt a
policy that will give tho city a taste of
gcnulno Sunday closing. I expect to lsue
morn sweeping orders every week until
Omaha becomes the quietest town In the
I'nlted States on Sunday. IJakerlcs, gro

They have been posting you about
Ayer's Sarsaparilla for nearly fifty years.
This newspaper says that Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the
greatest spring medicine you can possibly take. There's
nothing like it for a nerve-bracer, nothing like it to lift
off a heavy load.
Why not feel as well every spring as Nature docs?
She isn't asleep, doesn't go around discouraged and all tired
outl She's alive, wonderfully alive. Take Ayer's Sarsa
parilla. wake up, get some new blood in you. and do

MERITS OF BLUFF PARK
llmld.-iit of thr'TTflli AVnrtl I'olM
Out StrniiK I'rnturr of llic
.North Itrm-rvr.
OMAHA, April 27. To the Kdltor of The
I3ec: We read with great Interest your edi
torial on "Our Public Parks," which ap
peared lu Tho Bco April 2t. We regard
your article very timely and wo hope It will
nrouso sufficient Interest nmong the people
to have thm see to It that a public park
ns Is a park (made up of plain and hilt and
lake, and near the center of the city) will
soon bo provided.
In pursunnco of your Ideas attention Is
especially directed to tho beauties and at
tractions, present nnd prospective, of the
llluff park, situated along tho north end of
Sherman avenue nnd close to tho center of
tho city. The best way for tho people of
Omaha to realize thu merits of the Illutf
park Is to take a drive out there on Sun
day or nny other day and seo what nature
has provided for Omaha.
It makes a great difference to Omaha
whether or not It has nn nttractlvo park
near tho city. We already have farm parks,
but that Is not what the people want. They
do want and will soon have in llluff park a
place where the people will go In largo
numbers for recreation and enjoyment.
Tho Kountze addition Joins this park on
the west and is one of the finest residence
location In thu city and Is ulrendy well
Improved, with nothing hut two-story hand
some residences nnd largo churches. On tho
east side; of tho park there Is a high bluff,
which overlooks a beautiful valley, stretch
ing off to tho north and cast, dotted with
beautiful farms and In the midst of which
there aro a chain of lakes of ample di
mensions for boating, bathing and tlshlng.
Now, people of Omaha, Just make It a
point to drive out to tho llluff park, take a
good look at tho present and possibilities
of this delightful breathing and resting
place. If you will do this Omnha will soon
have a II no park that will be frequently
visited and tho people will bo proud of.

According to R. A. Mould, a representa

Pittsburg, Pa., tho wooden freight car Is
doomed, and steel cars are destined to be
tho only kind used on the railroads of the
country Mr. Mould Is In tho cltv Inter
viewing the officers of the local railroads
nnd Incidentally placing a few cars. Ho
said:
"Tho steel car Is the coming freight
vehicle, nnd whllo all factories aro said
to bo going Into combinations, here Is one
Industry wherein there Is to be competition
enough to satisfy tho most ardent champion
of the competitive system. At least three
companies are now ready to enter the
He'd ngnlnst our company, which wns tho
originator of tho Idea. Tho Amerlcnn Cnr
and Foundry company of St. Louis Is open
ing a factory at Detroit for the manufac
ture of cars under patents held by It; the
Cambria Steel company of Johnstown Is
going Into the business and the Holleil Stcol
Car cotppany Is opening u factory at Struth
ers, O. The steel car Is received with more
enthusiasm In tho west than In tho east,
and we aro now running on orders from
Colorado roads which will rcplaco all of
their present ore cars with thoso of steel.
It Is only a question of a short tlmo when
stock cars will be built entirely of steel,
nnd then the inventors will turn their at
tention to passenger conches.
