REAL BLESSING COMES IN DISGUISE

Drouth nnd hot weather nre not without
their advantaged, nccordlng to C. 11. Want
land, special land agent of the Union Pa
cific railroad, with hendouarters nt Denver.
In fact, they have already resulted In threo
direct beneficial effects to tho western
country, and a fourth will follow.
Mr. Wnntlnnd was visiting Union Pacific
land headquarters at the general ofllrcs In
Omaha yesterday and ho divulged some In
teresting Information concerning these
paradoxical blessings of misfortune. None
was temporary, all bolnR still In tho stage
of progression, they wore the direct ro
pult of drnilth In Missouri, Kansas and
Nebraska. Mr. W'antland says:
"Jn tho first place, tho most notablo
effect has doubtless been to turn the at
tention of all theso western people with
an Irresistible forco to Irrigation and to
Irrigated countries. Their own experience
of this season haB caused them to ponder
long upon tho places where men make their
own rivers. Tho ontlru Irrigated section
In the west, through Idaho nnd Colorado
especially, Is now tho point on which their
ryes aro turned. They feel like patterning
after such n system.
StllllllllllCH Sl-lltlllK'llt.
"So this sentiment lias, of course, In
creased to a tenfold Intensity tho strong
feeling In favor of the national Irrigation
scheme, by vast reservoirs In the
gulches and canyons and valleys, tho gov
ernment being tho owner and operator of
tho cntlro plant. It Is remarkable what a
demand their Is for such a system, and
how tho plan has grown In popular favor.
This feeling has been especially noticeable
slnco that open letter of J. J. Hill's ad
vocating It.
"In short, tho drouth has brought Irriga
tion sharply and prominently boforo tho
peoplo of tho west ami of tho affected ter
ritory In every phase of its possibilities and
powers nnd this will bo certain to havo
great results.
"Again, tho drouth has shown tho peoplo
for the first tlmo tho real extent nnd value
of tho great cattlo ranges In Wyoming.
They had not realized lmforo what thoso
pastures really amounted to, or what
chances were thcro. Tho fnct that thou
sands of head of Nebraska cattle aro now
feeding up thcro has awakened them to a
reallratlon of this fact.
"This year's drouth Is to havo n vast
influence on summer travel next year.
This season fiO.OOO travelers visited tho
mountains of Colorado. Next year thcro
will bo 100,000. Tho terrlblo beat which
has been suffered through tho central west
will causo tho Increase. Hy going to the
mountains one enn keep cool and comfort
able. I'coplo know this nnd thoso who did
not go havo boon sorry they did not. Thoy
will get out early next year and In un
precedented crowds. A hot spell nlwnys has
this effect on tho noxt year's travel."

One hundred and twenty-flvo sunburnt
excursionists alighted from a Milwaukee
train at tho union depot at C o'clock yester
day morning nftcr having spent Sunday very
pleasantly at Dako Okobojl. All expressed
themselves as delighted with th'o trip. Tho
day could not havo been ordered better so
far as tho weather was concerned, for the
threatening clouds that overcast the sky
nt intervals served to tompor tho sun's
rays and tho brisk breezo from tho south
west caused tho waves to run Just high
enough to add a zest of danger to tho en
terprise, of going abroad In rowboats.
During tho early morning" tho flBh bit
ravenously and by noon It wbb a common
thing to seo parties with long strings of
nhlutng cropplc, cat and sunlish, wending
their ways to somo iulct spot In tho woods
whero fires were built nnd tho catch roasted
on split sticks nftcr tho manner of tho
Indian tribes that onco Infested tho sec
tion. Thoso to whom beer was an cs
sonttal element of the perfect outing, suf
fered somowhat from thirst no doubt, as
beer wns not to bo had at least by none of
tho ordinary means of procuring tho bovor
nge. Hut tho fishing, boating and bathing wero
all that could bo required. One fact that
appealed especially to persons from Mis
souri river points was tho remarkablo trans
parency of tho lake water. In sheltered
coves along tho bank bright gravel bottom
could be distinctly seen through a depth
of ten feet of tho element. The wator was
cooler than that at Manawa, but nemo too
cool for bathing. Tho excursion was per
sonally conducted by George B. Ilaynea,
city passenger agent of tho Milwaukee.

that John M. Thurston was to bo placed at

Washington, D. C, assistant to him.
No ono at Union Pacific headquarters,

Tho disappearance and supposed suicidal
drowning of Chris Harm, a Uto (la.) mer
chant, a few weeks ago, promises to reveal
nn Interesting story, with on Omaha chap
tor for a climax.
It has been strongly Intimated that
Harm did not drown himself In fnct, that
ho still lives and that back of It all Is an
effort to realize on tin Insurance policy.
Telegraphic advices from Sioux City aro
to the effect that Harm Is now believed
to bo In Omnha or South Omaha, secreted
from public view by friends.
Much Interest In the cnse has been
aroused In Iowa and an Investigation Is In
progress.
All offort3 to locate Harm In cither of
the Omahas have thus far failed.
Various theories ore afloat and Interest
ing developments are likely.
Several thousand dollars arc Involved.
Tho Harm case has numerous rnmlllcatlons,
somo of which aro exceedingly sensational.
llitrtu'M My Mti'rloun Hull,
Chris Harm Is under suspicion of having
lied from Ute. Ia. with tho doublo motive
of securing $4,000 llfo Insurance and of
avoiding suits now pending for $20,000.
Tho suicide theory Is supported by tho
finding of a hody supposed to bo that of
Harm In Soldier creek. Tho corpse was
discovered by boys swimming In a pool nnd
wnB partially Identified as tho missing
merchant. It wns interred in tho Hnrm
family lot nnd Mrs. Harm mourned tho
dead man ns her husband.
Tho body wns found on July 8, threo
weeks after Harm's disappearance, and
was so badly decomposed that nctual Identi
fication wns Impossible. Following Harm's
disappearance facts camo to light which
aroused suspicion as to whether tho mer
chant had In reality taken his llfo.
Richard Palmer, a banker, testified that
ho has followed his wlfo to tho rear (if
Harm's store at night, heard her knock ami
saw her admitted. Ho advances tho Idea
that a cadaver was brought from Omaha or
elsewhere, dressed In Harm's clothes and
thrown Into the creek. Tho stream Is not
moro than two feet deep and thero Is doubt
whether a man of Harm's size could havo
drowned himself In It.
On several occasions beforo tho finding
of tho body tbo missing merchant Is said
to have been seen aud recognized. Mmtl
Hargrnves, a traveling man who had done
business with Harm, was posltlvo that he
had seen him In Omaha and a Maploton,
(la.) farmer was equally positive that ho
had encountered the missing man in the
road near that town.
ELBQURN IS HOME AGAIN

City Clerk W. H. Mlhourn and family have
returned from a three weeks' visit In Mary

"The attendance nt tho exposition Is dis

crawls abovo 40,000 a day and tbo conces
sionaires aro coniplnlnlug of the small
crowds. Omaha men havo tho best shows
on tho Midway, but aro not doing tho busi
ness their attractions merit."
Mr. Klbourn went to Ruffalo by way of
Kansas City and returned over tho same
route. Ho says tho crops In Knnsas, Mis
souri nnd Illinois looked fine threo weeks
ago, but tho drouth has gotten In Its work
and damaged them to an nlarmlng oxtont.
"Kansas crops aro In a bad condition;
parts of Missouri have fared badly. In
diana corn looks bad and Illinois corn shows
the effects of tho dry weather. Saturday
and Sunday wo passed through good rains.
Illinois will faro pretty well In spite of tho
drouth nnd parts of Missouri will como out

though It wero too far gono to bo helped,"

was found dead nt his home, his body
hanging over the sill of tho bedroom win

UNCLE SAM CALLS FOR MEN
Civil Service Commission .Millies Spe
vliil AlMlcnl for Poxtolllec
Clerks mill Curriers,
The Civil Scrvlco commission desires to
sccuro eligible candidates for appointments
ns clerks and carriers at the Omaha post
olllco, and the announcement culling atten
tion to the examinations to bo. held at
tho federal building September 4 contains
an appeal for volunteers, In which It Is
said:
"This examination offers an excellent op
portunity for entering the federal scrvlco
to bright, energetic young persons who
nro not afraid of hard work and tho com
mission hopes that n sufficient number
of Intelligent, actlvo persons will present
themselves for this examination. It may
be stated that thero Is a wider field for
advancement upon merit In tho federal
service than In many prlvntc employments,
not only by promotion in the same oillce,
but by transfer to other parts of the sorv
Ico." This appeal Is a formal one, but Is never
used except whero thero aro not enough
applications to suit the commission. That
peoplo aro slow to respond to tho appeals
of tho commission Is attributed by tho
members to tho fact that tho opportunities
for employment In private service aro so
numerous and tho wages paid are generally
so much better than Is paid by tho gov
ernment. Aiitomolillc s us Transport Wiikihis.
