Among tbo moat prayerful of those who
long to sco Omaha pavements put In good
repair aro the men who seek to conduct
tho sale of the automobile, tho locomobile
or the mobile, as It Is variously called, ac
cording to the Identity of tho manufacturer.
Omaha la not regarded os an uutomobllo
town. Tho uso of this modern convenience
end novelty In quick and easy transporta
tion has not by any means become a cra.o
In Omaha, as it ha a In most of tho cities
of the cast and not a few western cities
of progressive Mens.
Tbo first autos that appeared In Omaha
wcro designed for advertising purposes
and were sailing under tho colors of Messrs.
Ilrahdcls and V. F. Stoccker. That was
during tho exposition epoch In Omaha.
They nppear to havo passed out of service
and BUch us aro In uso In the city now aro
piled to conserve tho pleasure of their
owners, Just as any other vehicle would
aturally bo used. There aro less than a
dozen In operation hero. Physicians seem
to be partial to this mode of convcyanco,
for there aro three of tho members of the
profession who aro prepared to take their
outings mounted upon theso lnnnlmato
stcods. Tho fortunato ones aro Dr. Ander
son, Dr. Coulter and Dr. Straub, tho lat
ter being nrmy physician nt Fort Crook.
Two of the men prominently connected
with tho Woodmen of tho World, A. I.
Hoot, who publishes the official paper, ami
J. F. Coltman, havo adopted this modern
method of locomotion nnd each is possessed
of one of the best vehicles In the market.
Frank II. Dobeck, superintendent of a
local mercantile establishment, also drives
ono of these vehicles of Milwaukee, manu
facture. Ocorgo I'atterson' has Just In
vested In a swell doublo-Beated horseless
that will create something of a sensation
among tho fanclcrB. Another admirer of
this mothod of wiping out space Is Deltoy
Austin, a travollng salesman. H. K. Clover
Is an adept In tbo uso of the auto and
jowns ono of tho best manufacture.
Men "Who Sell TIipiii.
Theso aro probably tho only ones outside
of the business who have Invested In auto
mobiles. Of course thoso who handle them
aro equipped to mako a proper presenta
tion of their goods to the public. Ono man
who makes a business of selling the ma
chines, not only In Omaha, but In several
adjacent cities, drives about tha city almost
dally In ono of his rigs. Another who
docs something in tho way of selling autos,
has a big $1,200 gasoline rig of Ilurfalo
manufacture, with scats for four. Still
another hns a gasollno automobllo of his
own manufacture, a very credltablo look
ing vchlclo and ono which ho says will
do tho business in hlll-cllmblng, easily
scaling tho Dodgo street declivity. Ho mado
It entire in his own establishment, and
whllo It Is the only ono ho has manufac
tured throughout, ho has made parts- of
numerous others and supplied quite a num
ber with power machinery.
Women Are Timid.
Thus far Omaha women do not appear to
havo taken kindly to the automobile.
Whllo any of them may bo willing and
even anxious to test Its speed propensities
under tho guidance of experienced hands,
but two of them havo manifested nny un-
governablo. Inclination to take hold of tho
linos nnd manipulate tho power themselves
clone. Ono of them Is Mrs. A. I. Root,
who Is seon driving about tho streets In
tho evenings as confidently nnd uncon
cernedly as If alio wcro piloting a worn
out government mule. It Is said that sho
knows all about tho automobllo anil can
point out all Its Idiosyncrasies. Tho other
feminine operator is Miss Daisy Smith, a
stenographer.
"Lincoln hatt Omaha badly faded In tho
uso of tho automobllo," says a dealer.
"There aro about n dozen In active service
down thcro, owned by private parties. Wo
havo two stores thcro and run a regular
automobllo stable Lincoln Is In advance
oven of Kansas City and St. Joseph In this
evldcnco of progresalvcness. Among those
who own carriages In tho Nebraska capi
tal aro F. Andrus, C. 0. Crittenden, II, E.
Foltz, Trof. A. A. Hadloy of tho Conserva
tory of Music, F. II. Packwood, C. U. Lee,
15. It. Spencer, II. N. Camcsasco, 0. Jungo
and sevoral others. Women and children
are adepts In tho ubo of tho machines in
Lincoln. Tho 14-ycar-old daughter of H.
E. Foltz la as handy with tho automobile
as Is hor father. Tho latter Is nwny from
homo a great deal and his wife nnd daugh
ter tako caro of tho carriage and operate It
as well as bo can.
OninUfi'a Street.
It was a little humiliating to hoar an
xpert opinion on tho relative merits of
tho pavements In Lincoln and Omaha. Two
or three years ago Lincoln's principal busl
noaa streets were In such a dilapidated
condition that It wns unsafe to cross ono
of them otherwise than In a balloon. It Is
o different now that dealers ascribe Lin
coln's precedence In tho uso of tho auto
mobllo over Omaha to tho excellence of tho
pavements In that city and the rovorso con
dition prevailing In Omaha.
"Thoro Is no question," continued tho
dealer, "that thcro would bo a better salo
for tho vehicles If tho pavements were
bettor here. Of courso it Is difficult to
Introduce a novelty such as tho automobile,
but thero Is no good reason why Omaha
hould not take as readily to It ns do
tho pooplo of othnr western cities. No, It
docs not rcqulro any great degrco of ex
pert knowledge to run them. Wo teach our
customers In n few hours so that thoy can

Is no danger about tho vehicle and tho
fear that somo peoplo accm to entertain
that they aro liable to blow up Is abso
lutely groundless. Tho cheapest carriages
made sell at $750 and thoy run from that
up to $1,400. . The majority of sales aro
of $900 and J 1.000 vehicles. They do not
get any cheaper, but tho tendency Is
rather higher. Any expert mechanic who
examines tho mechanism of ono of theso
machines will attest that tho price asked
Is not exorbitant. They will not come
down as bicycles did. The original prices
on bicycles wcro so ridiculously high that
they hnvo suffered many reductions, but it
will not bo so with the locomobile. Tho
boiler nnd engine of ono of theso machines
must bo made differently from any other
boiler and engine, as they are made to be
placed In tho hands of Inexperienced per
sons. We claim that It does not take an
engineer to run one. All that la needed Is
common sense. Tho boiler Is of copper,
wrapped with three layers of piano wire, so
thnt It absolutely cannot explode."

aro some gasollno motors In use.

In the course of time when memory had

Mrs. Salsbrun began to realize that tho

Having had experience In tho matrimonial

ho deserted tho shop on Sixteenth street
and removed his stock-in-trade and ma

could manufacture cigars without departing
from tho presence of his wife.
Ho then left for Chicago, whero for a eec

Latent Development In the tloo

Formerly.
The book agent has mado his appearance
In a new form. Ho Is well dressed and
carries his stock with him In a suit case
His books arc talcs of travel and adventure
such as always interest boys, nnd when ho
comes to a place whore a number of young
sters are at play ho opens his case,1 show
tho books, which aro bound and Illustrated
to catch the fancy of tho boy, and usually
makes a sale.
"It Is only natural that tho book can
vasser should break out In now stylo occa
slonally," said a large book publisher to
a ftcw lork Trlbuno man, "for ho has
numerous nud powerful competitors and
he must be moving to keoji up with tho
procession. Tho man selling books on the
Btrcot Is the only ono of his kind today,
but if his scheme is successful there will
be others within a short tlmo."
Thoro has been much improvement In tho
composition of tho book canvassing fra
tcrnlty, according to the statements of tho
publishers, nnd tho prejudice against the
man who has a book for sale Is growln
less. "Of course," said ono publisher, "It
will bo a long tlmo beforo peoplo will take
down tho signs in tho hallways of nubll
buildings excluding book agents, but It will
take a long tlmo to Btop tho mother-in-law
Jokes also. Dook agents mny havo been
uores and almost nuisances once unon a
tlmo, but tho class has Improved and the
canvasser of today Is usually a superior
man, wno combines tho qualities of a sales
man with moro than average education
in tno.days when he was an oblectlonahl
visitor, who could not be insulted and who
camo in by ono door after havluir linen
sjiown out of another, his carnlnes worn
small. Today tho average canvasser makes
a year and there are manv mm t
tho business whoso Income Is 112,000 or
io,uuu. canvassers havo their roeular
tusiomcrs ana go over t m
route regularly, like men who travel for
commercial houses. Tho canvusscr
usually a 'commission man,' who receives
pay In keeping with hla sales. Wo may see
him every day or wo may not see him for
months. Ho has no nuthorlty to uso our
name, and wo aro not bound by promises
wnicn uo may make. Wo havo a clause In
our subscription contracts to that effect
oecauso moro aro still somo men in tho
business wbo need watching. Tho eroat
troublo Is thnt peoplo do not nlwayB read
tho contracts which tho book convasser
lianas them to sign, nnd then when things
go wrong mey blanio tho publisher."
KnII Hack on IlookM.
Tho book ngent or canvasser has usually
uuu experience in otnor lines of business
anu many of the men who havo been sue
cessful In that calling havo failed In other
vocations. "Thero is probably no line of
business outsldo of Insurance," said tho
publisher, "In which ono can find moro
elderly men who have been unsuccessful
than In tho book canvassing lino. But
many of them get down to work hardor
wnen tncy enter than thoy ever did before,
and they succeed. Ono man of this class

wno nro known to tho big DUbllshers. nnri
when they have something to put on tho
market thoy send for these men and agree
on terms and know that tho stock In ques
tion Is as well as disposed of.. Tho bIku
'No Dook Agents Allowed' has no terror fnr
these people. Thoy go to-tha offlen nf n
busy lawyer or a 'Wall Btroet broker with
tno assurance of a client or a customnr!
thoy nro admitted, their story Is listened to
and thoy usually go- away with an order.
Thero are hundreds of busy men In New
ork who lovo books, and buy many, but
never go to a book store. All their pur
chases aro made through agents. Thoy are
known to the fraternity, but It would be
useless for Drown to seo a man to whom
Jones usually sells, for theso customers 'bo-
long to tho book salesmen. Wo saw this
demonstrated recently. A man who had a
good trade gavo It up to take a placo In ad
Insurance company. Ho turned his list
over to another man who was a good sales
man, and a man of good address, but the
trade did not' tako to him, and his sales aro
nothing like those of his predecessor."
The most conscientious book agent Is the
woman. She attends to her business closely
and Is usually successful., In the early
days of canvassing tho woman who en
gagod in the business thought it necessary
to wear black, to have a talo of woe and
to give her customers a chance, to mix
charity with business. That class of can
vasser has grown less every year and It Is
now almost extinct. The woman canvasser
of today Is usually a bright, clever, and, In
mosi instances, handsome woman, who
makes customers, no matter what tho qual
ity of tho book Bhe la selling may bo.
The Income of one of these women Inst
year from commissions on books sold was
moro than $30,000.

"The uanio of our calling Is against us,"
Bald a man who Is known ai ono of the
successful sellers of subscription books to
tho Trlbuno represontatlvs. "Having u
good bo 1: for salo and knowing a man who
wants Just such a book Is only half tho
battle, becauso somo people have a
prejudice against a book agent which Is bo
strong that they will not admit ono to the
house'. I sent my card to such a person
recently. It was simply a visiting card
and when tho lady appeared nnd looked
at me sho said:
"'You aro not a book agont, are you?'
" 'Do I look llko a book ogent?"
" 'Excuse mo she said, apologetically,
and then I began to talk about my book.
" 'I thought you said you were not a
book agent.'
" 'No, I simply asked if I looked llko
ono, and, according to your notion of such
people, I did not.'
"Well, I sold tho woman my book and
made a customer of her."
Tho book agent who has a sot of books
on his hands which a customer' refused to
tnke, which ho will sell for half price, the
man who In order to "got a good namo on
his book" will sell a 100 work for 20 and
tho agent who will agree o throw In an
other book free of charge Just to mako a
eale aro among tho people who make U
hard for tho better class of canvassers to
do business.

Tho police received word yestorday of the
death of Kittle Owens at Spokane, Wash.,
July 13. Ktttlo, a comely mulatto, was well
known In Omaha and in many othor cities
of tho mlddlo west as a pickpocket of
unusual versatility and skill. Once during
tbo Transmlsstsslppl exposition sbo robbed
a man from Nebraska City of $1,200. Ho
had Just sold out a business enterprise In
Nebraska City and had come to Omaha with
tho proceeds of tho salo, Intending to re
invest tbo monoy here, when his chance
meeting with Kittle changed his plans
and sont him to work by the month on a
farm. The money was never recovered.
A short tlmo nftorwards Kittle robbed a
concessionaire at tho exposition grounds of
$780. A part of this sum was represented
by a $500-1)111 and tho detectives thought
thnt this fact would aid them in appre
hending the thief, but they underestimated
hor astuteness. Instead of trying to havo
tho bill changed here she sent an ac
complice to Chicago with It, paying her
$100 for the service.
