FORT CROOK TO BE DOUBLED
Gsitrali Bsoemmsid that Pott at Thil
T int Ba Coiiidsrablj Eolargad.
TO ACCOMMODATE ENTIRE REGIMENT
rrohahllttr that Nebraska Militia
Will Co to Fort Riley, Kami,
for I la Anaaal Encamp
ments la the Fata re.
When congress put Into effect the rec
ommendations of tbe board of general
offlcers aa to the Improvementa required In
the poet! of the United States army tbe ca
pacity of Port Crook will be doubled and
there will be considerable change In the
arrangement of the buildlnga. One of the
most Important change! will be In the
mesa quarters. When the present building
was under conatructlon the War depart
ment Introduced the feature of having
general Instead of company messes.
The large building at Fort Crook con
tains quarters for eight companies of a
maximum strength of sixty-two men, four
companies being quartered on either side of
large mesa room In which the entire
force Is fed. Fort Riley was another post
where the same feature was Introduced.
(The experiment has proven anything but
satisfactory and the board recommonded
a return to the company mess.
At the present time the company bar
racks provide for 499 men. The maximum
strength of a company at tbe present time
la 104 enlisted men, with twelve companies
to a regiment, or 1.248 men. When Fort
Crook la raised to the strength of a regi
mental post the present quarters will have
to be enlarged to contain room for two
battalions, or 832 m'en, while quarters for
an additional brigade of 418 men will have
to be constructed.
ttnarters for Officers.
There are at present quarters at the post
tor thirty-three officers, but to accommodate
a regiment under the present formation
quarters for forty-eight offlcers must be
provided, besides quarters for non-commls-ftloned
ataff officers.
- These Improvements were recommended
2y Brigadier General Bates, commander of
tie department, and an estimate of the cost
Whs made by the quartermaster's depart-,
roent. Tbe exact figures made by this offi
cer cannot be given, but It is understood
that the cost will be equal at leaat to the
cost of the present buildings on the site.
The new building will probably contain,
. In addition to) the quarters for four com
panies, kitchens and dining rooms for each
company, while the general mess room In
the present building will probably be di
vided up into company mess rooms.
. If the recommendations of the board are
carried out. the Nebraska state mllltla will
probably go to Kansas for its annual en
campment, as the board recommended that
Fort Riley. Kan., should be selected as a
camp of general Instruction under the
terms of a law passed by congress appro
priating $10,000 for the purpose of survey
ing four general camps of Instruction, to
be used Jointly by the regular army of tbe
United States and the militia of the several
States.
Lontfloa of Inetraetlon Camp. .
These camps ere located by the board,
one In Pennsylvania, one at Chlckamauga
park. Oa.. one in California and one at
Fort Riley. Tbe site at Riley was selected
because the government owns sufficient
land for the purpose and the camp can be
established at small cost. It is expected
that aa soon as congress establishes these
camps of Instruction the country will be
divided Into districts and the points where
the state troops are to be mobilised will be
designated. Fort Riley will be the most Im
portant camp in the country, for while the
Pennsylvania camp will contain the greater
number of men on occasions of mobiliza
tion, the troops at Riley will come from a
broader scope of country and will approxi
mate) la strength those at the Pennsylvania
bamp.
It Is expected that the present session of
congress will pass on tbe recommendations
bt the board and that work will be started
svlthln year.

YELL0WST0NEBY AUTOMOBILE
How I'nlon raclnc Proposes to Gather
la Soma National Park
Traffic.
"The Union Pacific system will probsbly
establish an automobile service between Its
lines and the two great Montana parks,"
said a prominent Union Pacific official yes
terday. "Tbe adoption of some such radical
scheme Is absolutely necessary if the Har
rlman interests are to oompete successfully
with tbe Hill lines for that trade.
"You see Hill can run stages over from
Cinnabar on tbe Northern Pacific- to Yel
lowstone 'park In a very short time, as It is
but seven miles distant. Our nearest sta
tion is Monida, on the Oregon Short Line,
fifty miles away from. the park. In order
to compete at all we must establish a nov
elty and a tlme-klller. Automobiles of
great power can be secured to make that
trip In half a day. The present stages take
almost three times that length of time and
are tedious as well.
"Tbe Idea is that these automobiles will
be so alluring aa vehicles for the mountain
wilderness Journey that people will prefer
to go fifty miles In them to seven In stages.
We have never attempted this before, or
anything like It, but the rivalry between
these two railroad Interests Is fiercer now
than ever, and will be pursued everywhere
possible.
"Of course It la not necessary for us to
put In thu automobiles to the Yosemlte
park, as we already control that business
from , the Southern Pacific. However, an-J
viucr auiuuiuuiji aiage ruuie mere would
take well and Would make things uniform,
and If one Is put In the other will be. In
Yellowstone park we may also use the
vehicles to tour the park, an additional

AND NOW SHE'S SMOKING CIGARETTES
Despondency Drives Yonnst Woman to
Desperation After Doctor Raves
Her l ite She Says She Has
Kaoaht to l.lve For.
Esther Tremors, aga 20, made an unsuc
cessful attempt to commit suicide at 6
yesterday ' morning by taking a mixture
of carbolic acid, laudanum and chloroform.
The poison was taken on the street and the
young woman then went Into a Douglas
street saloon to die. The keeper of the
placo notified the police and she was re
moved to the station In the patrol wagoa.
Police Surgeon Borglum pumped the poison
out of her and she is now detained.
During the night the woman bought the
poisons at different drug stores. She then
mixed the three, drank the mixture and
walked Into the saloon. Ruth Woods was
with her. The Tremore woman, after tak
ing the polsor, gave the Woods woman four
letters for delivery, addressed to 'Bessie
Russell, Lincoln; Lou Russell and Mtna
Russell, Omaha, and one for Ruth Woods,
Omaha. Four months ago a lover of the
woman, Charlos Russell ot Lincoln, com
mitted suicide, since which time she has
been despondent.
After having recovered from the effects
of tbe poison Miss Tremore Informed the
officers that she was tired of life and had
nothing to live for, conaequently shs had
attempted to - take her own life. Her
mouth. Hps and throat were fearfully
burned by tbe carbolic acid.
The woman came to Omaha about two
years ago from Iowa, where her people re
side. Lately she has been rooming at the
Dodge hotel. At 10 yesterday morning
she had recovered from her despondency
and asked for a cigarette.
