PROFIT IS NECESSARY

Reason dealers cannot sell six Tom Keenes for a quarter.
Thousands of dealers are loyal
to the public in handling finest
qualities at closer profits instead
of pushing inferior brands at
larger margins. For the benefit
of such dealers we frankly
inform the public that the
cost of the Tom Keene is
so much higher than any of
the 5-cetit brands commonly
sold that there is hardly any
calculable profit in one sale
at 5 cents. The gain is only
on the bulk of
profit would be
at 25 cents; so
Bu! the consumer is faking care of us very satisfactorily on this brand. There are many whose business it is to tell him its stock
is not genuine Vuelia as claimed and authoritively backed up by us. But his own taste points out there is something extremely delicious about the Tom Keene he
doesn't find in any other cigar at less than 10 cents or more; and the Tom Keene is having a sale which cannot be talked down.

Tho permanont anchoring of tbo eastern
terminal Uulon Pacific shops at Omaha ts,
In tho opinion ot City Attorney Connoll, tho
most Important anil prolUablo result to this
city, on tho wholo, ot tho cntlro contract
which Is about to bo consummated.
All knowlcdgo at this rumlflcatlon of tho
proceedings has till now been ltcpt abso
lutely secret, but this ono point Is a fea
ture on which Mr. Council has dovoted tho
major shuro ot his time and finesse, nnd
with the tnattor finally settled beyond a
doubt ho mudo public tho cxlstcnco ot such
a complication In the ngreomont today.
This end was reached by tho Insertion
of u strong rovorslonary provision In tho
docd by which the city conveys to tho rnll
road tho lots, strcots and alleys ulong tho
river district. This provision stntes deft
Jiltuly that tho property Is transferred nolcly
and exclusively for tho purpose of enabling
tho Union Pacific railroad to construct nud
maintain permanent machluo shops there,
and another clause provides that If tho rail
way company shall at any tlmo fall,
negloct or refuse to maintain such shops,
or to use such ground for said purposes,
tho tltlo shall rovert to tho city at once.
Horn Awuy lrllh u dull.
"That simply buries bo deop that It can
never bo dug up tho stuffed club which tho
Union Pacific rnllroud has wielded over
Omaha for decadeB," Bald Mr. Connell. "Por
years nud years .tho people ot this city
have been Influenced In any uctlon concern
ing tho railroad contemplated by them with
a threat that tho shops would bo removed
front Omaha It tho wishes of tho road wcro
disregarded or tho prosperous conduct of Its
affairs In uny way hindered.
"Tlmo nnd again have wo heard thnt
throat, and it cannot bo den lent that It has
had Us effoct. Hut now It can never ngaln
be launched. Those shops nro by this re
versionary provision stalled down here as
firmly as this city hall. They cauuot move
thorn if I hey wish to,"
Tho city attorney had not expected that
this provision would pass tho railroad rep
reoentatlvcs who handled thnt end of tho
agreement proceedings. It was Included In
nono of tho llrst drafts of contracts sub
mltted for discussion, nnd nelthor was It In
tho ono finally presented by the railroad as
a porfectod copy. Mr. Connell enmo for
ward flatly with tho suggestion, however,
At ono of tho recent conferences In connec
tion with tho contract, and though tho rail
road men demurred nt llrst they Dually con
sented to Its Insertion.
Doptl In Independent Document,
Tho deed Is drawn soparatoly from tho or
Alliance and bath nro completed. Tho ordi
nance Itself, which Ik tbo contract embodied
In n mensurn ot law, contains ample and
positive reference to this provision. It says
that "tho deed of conveyance shall hnvu
aufllclcnt and umplo condition of reversion."
"nut that stipulation Is by no means an
tagonistic In Its tendencies or Intentions,"
continued Mr. Connoll. "In fact. It Is de
cidedly uulfylng. It crcateii n feeling .f
good will nnd a decided mutuality of Inter
ests between tho city ami railroad looking
toward tho upbuilding of Omaha."
The council was to have met this morn
a large steady sale. All
sacrificed if six were sold
please do not ask it.
ing for tho purposo of considering this or
dinance and docd, but owing to tho tact that
President Karr was out ot tho city and Mr.
Ilascall could not bo found tho project was
nbnudoncd and tho call withdrawn, as It Is
desired to havo nil tho members present
when so Important and far-reaching a mat
ter Is to bo handled.
Mr. Connell says that now tho ordinance
will wait until tho regular meeting on noxt
Tuesday night. A npcclnl meeting has been
arrangod for Monday morning at 10 o'clock,
but this Is said to bo solely for the purposo
of pausing an appropriation ordlnanco.

Sorao of tho men who live In Omaha and
work for tho Union Pacific In Council niuffs
havo addressed tbo following lotter to tho
mayor and city council:
"OMAHA, Nov. 29, 1901. To tho Honor
ablo Mayor and Council of Omaha: Gentlo
mon Having read In this evening's papers
that you nro about to closo cortaln agree
ments on behalf of tho city with the Union
Paclfio Hallway company, granting certain
rights and privileges which perhaps requlro
much dcllbcrutlon, yet you nro expected to
approvo this matter Immediately by those
conducting tho deal. It might bo well be
fore doing so to call your attention to the
fact ot apparent discrimination now botng
practiced against our city by the oftlclals of
thut company tu favor of Council lllufts as
against residents and taxpayers of Omaha,
who nro employed over thcro, being expected
to report for duty nt regular tlmo, regard
less of how they get there. As thore Is no
regular transportation furnished for nearly
two yoars past, except to hang around tho
Omaha yards watching from 6 n. m. to 7:30
a. m. tot any train chancing to como along,
nt tho risk of being put off such trains by
their crows, as well as to tho risk ot life
and limb. The company not bolng reBpoa
slblo In any mannor In such event their
families tnuy apply to tho winds for relief.
"This may not bo a burning question to
tbo general public, but It Is regarded and
folt to be a gamo of treezcout by those dl
rcctly concorued. In former times Omaha
furnished over half tho men employed In tho
various departments; now they comprlBo
about one-tonth, with a practical shut-down
on hiring any more Omaha men. Tho cm
ploycs havo presented petitions to tho
proper officials, 119 satisfactory action belug
tnken. Tho only Indirect Inference to be
gleaned Is that they could move to Council
Bluffs. Wo do not wish to bo forced In this
matter, and expect that proper transportu
Hon will he furnished for tho futuro as well
as In the past. Our coming homo does not
bother as much, as It matters not to the
company if wo nro late. Most of our peo
ple, married or single, taxpayers or board
ers, prefer living In Omaha,
"hot us havo a little, community ot Inter
ests and reciprocal relations, we boar so
much ot practiced at homo, where It con
cerns ub most. There nro umplo means of
a remedy by tho officials' wcro thoy so dis
posed. Wo nil rogard Mr. Hurt as a fair

Musical
Omaha Is growing so largo that ono docs
not get n chnnco to maintain any social
relations with Ills frlcndu for any length
of time. Tho "Intimates" of ono yeur nro
so ofton tho "inemorlos" of tho next. Such
was my reverlo last Sunduy afternoon when
saw my valued friend Mr. Walter Wllklus
for tho llrst tlmo In many moons. So wo
stood and tnlked over musical matters gen
erally and musicians locally until It was
tlmo to don tho cassock nnd cottn for tho
afternoon servtco at Trinity cathedral.
Mr. Wllklus 1b now in his prime. lie has
tho maturity which years alono can bring
o the votco nnd style. Ho Is a good model
for tho rising generation of singers, but,
alas, bow few of them aim for tho perfec
tion ot detail nnd smoothness of stylo ho
well represented by tho artist In question?
In theso days of "Holy City," "Dream of
arndlso," "dates ot Heaven" Bongs, tho
'story" songs so provalent, It is refresh
ing to bear an artist sing tho nlrs of tbo
Oratorio nnd Its mighty recitatives. ' Mighty
In depth and In thought. What n toll-
talo Is tbo recitative! How few know bow
to sing It. Mr. Wilklus Is a bright
nnd shining light in this particular.
Ho Is not ono ot your "High C
from tho Chest" singers. Tho artist profcrs
to sing from tho mind nnd soul. Tho
younger singers In church positions in
Omaha (and many of tho older ones) can
loarn much by studying tho art of this man.
Tho profession lost a star when bo dccllucd
to enter It.
And that brings mo to tho consideration
of tho Trinity cathedral choir. Lost Sun
day I heard tho afternoon servlco for the
first time. The organist and choirmaster,
Mr. P. Hatsou Wright, is a valuable ad
junct to Omaha musical circles. I purposely
waited for tho expression of an opinion In
Tho Rco na to Mr. Wright's work until ha
would havo had u chance to got a choir
together and "got things started."
I havo always had a warm placo In my
heart for Old Trinity over sliico 0110 Sunday
evening years ngo, nftor I had first arrived
In this beautiful city from a home across
tho broad Atlantic, n placo callefl Ireland.
I was lonely nnd homesick Indeed, nnd a
lino looking old gentleman hearing me Jain
In the singing of ono of t.o hymns, turned
round and handed mo his hymnal. After
church ho Invited mo to como again nnd
consider his pow my regular scat. Tho
gentleman was Mr. John Worthlngton, of
happy memory, tho brother of Illshop
Worthlngton, nud tho friendship thus begun
was terminated only by his death.
So It filled my heart with Joy to seo the
magnificent processional go up tho alslo
last Sunday afternoon, oxtondlug, as It did
from the litany desk to tho exit, boys and
men, In tho vostraeuts of thn church, nnd,
bringing up the rear, tho dignified and fath
erly presenco of tho venerable Dean Pair,
whoso heart, full of gratitude und prldo In
his choir, found expression lu his eyes, Tho
dean loven music and ho appreciates what
peoplo do for him, as can bo seen by read
ing thn "Cathedral Chimes.
As tho procession entered, Mr. Wright
played what I took to bo on Improvisation
on tho opening theme of Mcndclssnbu's
"Hear My Prayer." And whon tho choir
had assembled in tho chancel and tbo
young women had tnken their places at
the north und south ends of tho choir
railing, thero must surely have been from
sixty to alxty-flvu singers, Truly, u "noblo
army, men and boys, the matron aud tho
maid."
Mr, Wright is a distinct success ns 1
choirmaster. The choir sang magnlfl
contly. Tho anthem, "Bend Out Thy
Light," was given (not In tho abbreviated (
form), nnd I havo novcr ncaru any uoiier
work within tho wnllB of Trinity. Thcro
wns n "telllngncss," If I may uho tho word,
to tho boys' voices which was decidedly
BUggcstlvo of tho old English cnthedrals. I
fcol positive, from their work, that Mr.
Wright Is n strict disciplinarian. Ho seems
to bo n man who will closo nn Incident
quickly nnd will not tolorato ludlffercnce.
Tho Intoning nnd tho singing of tho versl-
cles nnd responses wns n posltlvo treat.
Why Is this beautiful service music so
often omitted?
Trinity has surely had n revival an up
heaval In Its musical department, and my
congratulntlons are sincerely and honestly
laid at tbo door of Mr. P. Hatson Wright.
I should not omit to mention tho excel
lent work of Miss Hungnte, soprano, nnd
tho comforting volco and assistance of Mis3
Hlshop, tho "Cathedral" nlto, as sho Is
styled on tho program. Mr. Temple, tho
"Cathcdrnl" basso, soems to bo a good
foundation. I have not heard him In solo
work. Why not "Cnthedral Hlshop" nnd
"Cathcdrnl Templo?"
I hear thero Is n probability that tho
matron nnd tho maid" will wenr churchly
vestmonts In the near futuro. This will
be a vust Improvement.
Ily n misunderstanding, on somobody's
part, I do not think It wns mine, Mrs.
Coo's name was omitted from tho notlco
of tho muslo for this year nt tho Unity
church, 'which appeared In this column last
Sunday. Mrs. Coo will contlnuo to sing
thcro, ns usual.
Miss Luolla Allen gavo n very Interesting
concert nt tho Plrst Unptlst church last
Tucsdny night to tho customary "largo and
enthusiastic" nudlcnoo. Miss Allen's or
chestra eonbtsted of nhout twonty-flvo peo
ple, playing violins, llule, harp, --cornet,
clarlnotto, double bass and trombone, Sho
was assisted by Mrs. Patterson, soprano,
and Mr. Jo Ilarton, baseo.
Mrs. Androws has taken charge of tho
organ at Hanscom Park. Sho tuccceds Mr.
Slgmund Lnndsborg, who resigned on no
rnnnt nf nressuro of studio business. Mrs.
Androws will glvo tho peoplo good work,
as sho is a very- enpawo and talented
musician.
A very talented young plnniBt nnd ac
companist played for mo tho other day.
Sho Is Miss McDonald of Council lUuffs.
Sho has been u pupil of Mr. Butler and
Miss Kiln Ethel Pree. I can vouch for hor
musicianship.
Several people, musical find musically In
clined, havo asked mo recontly about tho
prospects of a choral society. If eomo
musical business men would got together
nnd bcrato tho business men for a whllo
and quit bcoldlng the musicians thero would
bo a phoral socloty very soon. Tho musi
cians aro ready. Now lot tbo musical
business men tnko tho business, end of tho
proposition. Wlint Is tho Commcrrlnl club
for?
What Is tho tiso of persons going to n
mustclnn and saying to him: "Why do
not you get togotber n choral society?"
Lot them furnish n hnll for rehearsals In
stead nt haranguing tho musicians, Lot
them show a gunranty list to cover tho
expenses nf ono concert and thoy will find
a conductor willing to serve, oven without
salary. If need be.
It Is up to tho musical business men.
Why do they not tnlk to tholr follow
biiBlnobs men at tho club about tho busi
ness end at It nnd drop tho discussion ot
tho musical end for 11 while.
Tho musicians are getting tired of bolng
Insulted nud unused by amateurs who nro
themselves derelict In their duties. As I

from greater sale. No
body " boosts " a true

you, Sir.
said before, it 1b up to them. Thoy meet
frequently to discuss ways and means tor
promoting this nnd that. Do they over
discuss tho organization of n choral so
ciety? No. If they did thoy would find a
ready response.
Thero nro Just as good business men now
ns thero were in tho days of tho old Apollo
club and they aro just as well able to pay
now, nnd furthermore, I will Btato they aro
Just as willing. Tho musician should not
ask them. Tho conductor ot tho Apollo
club did not do It.
Organize nn cxecutlvo comniltteo first, ya
Interested music lovers, und then a choral
socloty.
Only ono gentleman in Omaha has spoken
to me about n choral society In a buslnees
llko wny. That was Gcnoral Mandcrson.
Ho said to ma not many weeks ngo: "I
will bo ono of twenty or forty business men
to glvo 25 toward the organization of a

tho proper spirit. Whore aro tho rest?
