Like that ot Joseph Murphy, the name of
Daniel Sully Is a household word among
thoso who enjoy seeing an Irish play In
tho hands of an Irish actor. Neither of
these men numbers among his clientele
many of tho regular patrons of the drama.
Their work appears to a different class al-
together, a clash ot big-hearted, whole
souled, every-doy people who like to go to
the theater once or perhaps twice a season
to seo nn old favorite. Mr. Sully has been
before the American people wel nigh u
score of years and with his dry, droll
comedy methods and his heart-reaching
pathos he has succeeded In making hosts
of friends, therefore It was not at all sur
prising that Royd's theater was unusually
well filled, considering tho season of tho
year.
It had been two years since tnls sterling
old Irish ftctor was seen hero, and un
fortunately his piny then was a failure
This season, however, he has n play that
In tho parlance ot tho street, Is a winner.
Above all, It Is clean and wholesome from
beginning to end. Through It runs tho
thread of a pretty llttlo lovo story. It has
its pathetic side as well as Its humorous
one. Tho frolicsome spirit predominates
to such an extent, however, that tho audi
ence is given llttlo time for tears. Mr.
Sully, In the character of a priest, Is tho
much-needed peacemaker, nnd the charac
ter Is not only ono to his liking, but also
one that fits him In every way. Tho sup
porting company as n wbolo Is good and
tho production praiseworthy. Mr. Sully's
engagemeut was for n slnglo performance.

Tho present congested condition ot tho
Omaha freight house of tho Union Pacific
causes the renewal ot tho requcsl for more

will be extended at onco and the extension
of tho freight houso may be given due at

A year ago tho request was presented
to the general officers that tho house be
extended ono block east, from Eighth to
Seventh streets. No action was taken on

MAKES RECORD-BREAKING RUN
Union I'ficltlc Ooi-h llrttrr tlinn n Mile
n Minute for n Itun of One Hun
dred mill Klfty-SIx .Mile.
A record of 156 miles In 153 minutes was
made by tho Union Pacific Friday after
noon. This was Just three minutes better
than tho best.
Tho conditions were good for some fast
running nnd the delay of tho fast mall
offered tho opportunity. The train crow
were given n schedule which called for
tho speed, and Mlko Decker, whose turn
It was to preside at tho throttle of tho
big I80u engine, smiled ns he pulled out
the lever and replied, "Well, we'll show
them n thing oi two today."
The train swept oast from Grand Island.
Tho first, calculation showed that Decker
was making about sixty mlleo an hour.
After a while ho pulled the levor to n
seventy-mile notch, then to a seventy-five
mile notch and when ho got by North Rend
ho had tho bljmonster pounding the rails
at an eighty-mile clip. This was repeated
between Elkhorn and Millard. Sovoral
stretehes wero covered In tho soventy-fivo
mile clip.
The train rolled Into tho Union station
at 5:40 and five minutes later It was at
the end of tho li.no nt tho Union Trnnsfer
in Council Hluffs, completing the 156 miles
In 153 minutes.
Owing to somo trouble on tho Central
Pacific the trains from that connection
wero all late. This was the first section
of the mall trau carrying tho mull nnd
only u part of tho passenger trnfflc. Tho
engine was tho regular 1800, with Mike
Decker tnd Fireman Andrews In tho cab.
Conductor Parks, belonging to the freight
service, wns In chargo of tho train.
Tho schedulo for No. 102 calls for somo
fast work every day, but the public knows
nothing of it unlets bomo curious pasocu
ger happens to pull his watch out and count
tho mllo posts as they (ly by. n Is no
strange thing for such an Inquirer to find
oui imu ma train is jogging along at
seventy miles an hour.
It frequently happens that considerable
tlmo is mado up aftor tho train strikes
this division at Grand Island. Tha record
for that run, 158 miles, has Btood at 150
minutes, Just n mllo n minute, until Frldny
afternoon. Thursday the train made up
ioriy minutes net v. con .-sortn Plntto nnd
umana, n nista.ico or -Ji miles, and that
was accomplished In a few spurts.
