road . Sewn.
Thirty-nine prominent Omaha men left
Wednesday night over the Burlington In a
special oar for Idaho, where they will lake
up timber -claims near Lewlston or Poca
tello. Among the tourists are: Tom
Collins Harms, . Paul Charlton, C. W.
Ralney. C. W. Hull, A. W. RawlUer. Frank
Brown lee, George Kean, Dr. A. H. Hippie,
A. B. Hunt, H. H Baldrtge, William Siller,
Harry B. Worrell, Charles Leslie, Ralph
Kitchen, Darld Dickinson, W. A. De Bord.
A. W. Johnson, Harry B. Zlmman, Stockton
Heth and others, who will file claims sent
representatives with the party.
Each man Intends to Die on a quarter
ectlon of timber land. On their trip they
will be gone only ten days and the actual
filing will not take place for some weeks or
months, perhaps. The land Ilea In the
mountain divide and Is covered with valu
able timber. The claims are not taken for
timber culture purposes. They will be held
as homesteads and Improved to their high
at possibilities.
With thirty-nine claimants filing on a
total acreage of 5,460, this growing section
of Idaho will comprise a large Omaha
colony, and as most of the settlers repre
sent substantial Interests, It Is reasonable
to suppose that within a short period a
far more extensive territory will be pre
empted by Omahans and Nebraskans. Ibe
land filed on Is said to be highly adapted
lo diversified farming, and besides the
profits to be derived from the timber when
It la removed either In whole or In '.art
the land will be open tor agricultural pur
poses and stock .raising, which may also be
a loading pursuit, as the grazing Is excel
lent In this part of the state. The tract
now accessible to colonization Is a very
large one and the same Inducements which
have taken this contingent of Gate City
men to the new country may be expected
to lure others out before a great while.
The party which has Just left will be
tone about ten days. Business will bs
combined with pleasure, and fishing obd
hunting la expected to afford some di
version for the men. Most, If not all of
them, will visit Yellowstone Park and
other polnta of Interest In the northwest
before their return. i
raasenajr Men's Picnic.
Local passenger and ticket agents have
received Invitations from the passenger
and ticket agents of Kansas City to attend
the tenth annual picnic of .the latter at
Trooat park, Kansas City, June 28.
The Invitation Is a rather unique affair.
It displays a number of prominent railway
men of Kansas City well known here, who
have been promoted to. substantial posi
tions, standing upon the several grada
tions of a pyramid representing the order
and rank of their promotions. On the pin
nacle stands H. N.. Garland, formerly with
the Wabash, now retired after a most suc
cessful career. Mr. Garland la In tele
phonic communication with the sphinx who
alts a short distance front the "pyramid and
la suppeaed to be Interviewed by the re
tired railroader for "tips" on his future.
A. H. Hilton, generat passenger agent of
the 'Frisco; C, E. Styles, assistant general
pasaenger agent for the Missouri Pacific,
and others who have had recent promotions,
occupy places well to the , top of the
pyramid. !.-:- v - :
It is probable that a large delegation of
Omaha ticket and passenger men will take
advantage of this Invitation.

city of about two weeks to find that her
parents bad moved from the residence tbey

left a fortnight ago for a visit with rela
tives at North Bend. She says she knew

pected that she would be given the address

not. Shortly prior to hsr departure from
North Bend she wrote her parents saying

dence she merely addressed the letter care
general delivery, and so far as she knows
the missive did not reach her father and
mother.

South Omaha News,
The city ordinances are being violated
every day by business men who place signs
and banners over and across sidewalks. At
the present ,tlme quite a number of bsnners
are exposed to view, being stretched across
the walks. la some Instances under Msyor
Kelly permission wss given for special oc
casions when the cause was for charity
and the people did not complain, but now
mis maner do emorceu.
Recent windstorms have blown down nu
merous algns which were placed In ex
posed positions over the sidewalks, and this
has caused the demsnd for the enforce-
ot tb ordinance. The city permlta
1fn to extend four feet from the building
uitable height above the pavement,
but no attention la paid to the regulations
the council Is to be asked to put a
P to the practice of displaying signs
and banners which are erected in violation
of the regulations.
Etter 'Wnnts Hose.
Chief Etter of the fire department Is
going to make a request of the city council
for the purchase of more hose. The number
of fires recently has caused a considerable
loss and at least 1,000 feet more sre needed
at once. With three companies In service
rubber hose Is used up rapidly, and now
the chief is preparing to recommend the
purchase of cotton Jacket hose. It Is as
serted by some that this cotton hose works
much better In the Ore wagons In use
here than the rubber hose.
Incendiary Fires.
Ot late several fires have occurred and
the offlcet-s of the department are confident
that they were of Incendiary origin. So
frequent have these fires become that the
Insurance companies have taken up the
matter and It Is asserted that Insurance
rates in the western part of the city will
be raised unless additional fire protection
Is given at once. Since the burning of the
Fourth ward fire hall the company formerly
atatlon on Indian Hill has been located at
No. 1 house. It Is a long run over to the
hill and consequently the protection Is not
what It was before the burning of the fire
hall.

Those who have been watching the In
teresting writings of Clara Morris since her
advent Into the literary field, will gladly
welcome her new novel entitled "A Paste
board Crown." It Is a atory of the New
York stage. 6he regards this novel as her
most serious effort. "It is the product,"
she aald In a recent interview, "of long
years ot observation and thought. My head
is fairly crammed with the subject. I am
making my heroine an example of the flock
sheep and goats both all the legion of
stage folk and playgoers. Perhaps It may
warn some wind-tossed mariner off tbe
shoale." Bhe said that her literary worn
was a aource of constant pleasure to her
and are more beside, for she felt that she
had a mission to perform. Her knowledge
of the stage and Its people and her wide
personal experience can, she thinks, be oi
benefit to others; and It la this novel that
she looks forward to, most of all, to
convey the lessen which she be
lieves is hers to Impart. The nero
ine is Sybil Lawton, who Is compelled
to earn htr living and assist at home, and
so selects the stage as a following. She be
comes remarkably successful as an actress
and the reader finds the aovel absorbing In
its complicated love tale. Her lover Is the
manager of tha theatre. The atory is told
with sincerity, frankness and feeling. It is
published by Scribner'a Sons.

In American letters a field of remarkable
originality both as to the themes be selects

tbe happy idea ot placing a modern atory
among the Grecian gods and goddesses.
Mount Olympus appearing as a aort of
Waldorf-Astoria ot tbe gods, where Cupid
runs tbe elevator and Jupiter Is referred to
aa "the old man." The hero ot the atory.
while travelling in Greece under the care
of hla apparently faithful guide, Hlppopo-
polls, finds himself one night at the foot
of Mount Olympus. Hlppopopolls robs him
after he tails asleep in a cave. When he

are most amusing, and will cause many a
hearty laugh. i

hatred for his rival, and before the hour ap
pointed for a duel with St. Megrln, we sse !
him in the rooms ot the prlncers endeavor- '
lng to force her to write a decoy letter to
St. Megrln, directing blm to come to her
by a secret stairway. Knowing the treach
ery ot the villainous Guise, and surmising
that this Is a bold plot to crush the count,
she refuses to write. He puts to her lips a
poison cup, but she faints before she can
drink. Guise finds another means of send
ing the letter, and the hapless St. Megrln,
all unconscious of harm, repairs secretly to
the apartments of the princess. He has
barely time to hear the story of the plot
and to learn that lu spite of all she loves
hlra with her whole heart, when the duke's
men are heard outside. He locks the door
and stands at bay, waiting till his enemy
has forced an entrance. It Is a thrilling
moment. The count's days seemed num
bered, when suddenly a rope's end dangles
down the chimney, dropped there by a
faithful page. St. Megrln quickly grasps
the situation, fastens the rope to a ledge
and flings It out of the window. Before
he can descend a stalwart figure proceeds to
climb upward. Friends are at hand. There
la a sharp conflict, and In the confusion the
duke files and the princess Is abducted by
his men. Later St. Megrln locates bis lady
love and paves the way to a Joyous wedding
by slaying the Duke of GuIbo in a duel.

Jewry published by the Jewish Publication
hatreds and the Ideals of the Jews. "The
Daughters ot Shem," tbe first and longest
tory in the volume, Is an analysis ot a
young Russian Jewess, who, having been
educated in tbe freer atmosphere ot Ger
many, returned unwillingly to the dullness
and restrictions of a small Russian town.
Here she divides ber time between reading
German novels, attending to her father's
shop, helping her younger sister, Salka,
nurse their Invalid mother, and dreaming
reams of tbe brilliant life Just out of
reach. A high-born Jewish lover, endowed
with rare gifts ot losrning and a liberal
share of worldly goods, who Is also, for
tunate enough to have secured tbe favor of
er parents, offers himself at the very
moment when opportunity as well as de-
Ire beckons her from the bondage of
Judiasm into the freedom of a gentile love.
"Animals at Home" Is a new collection
for children ot the fourth or fifth grades,
by Lillian L. Bartlett. In simple style it
gives sketches of the lives snd habit's of
wenty-flve representative birds, animals,
shes and insects. These are most Inter
estingly presented and special care has
been taken to make the subject matter cor
rect. The author has gone to reftable
sources for Information, and used the de
ceptions of eye witnesses for many of tbe
acident. The book is sttractlvely illus-
rated from drawings and photographs, and
will, we feel sure, tend to awaken in tbe
child an appreciation for nature and a
love for nature study. This volume is the

John A. Cone is at present working upon
a novel dealing with some personal experi
ences In the Hawaiian Islands. The book
ought to be well worth reading, for Mr.
Cone Is thoroughly acquainted with Hawaii
and his sketches already published in "A.
Musical Reformation." published by the Ab
bey Press. 114 Fifth avenue, New Tork.
Indicate that he knows something about
the art of atory telling. Ha lived, for three
years in Hawaii and upon his return to
the United States the San Francisco New's
Letter had thla to say about hla lecture
delivered at the Baldwin theater, San Fran
cisco. "It was an intellectual treat to
those who were fortunate enough to pat
ronize It. The lecture contains a vast
amount of information and does it suc
cinctly and in a most entertaining mannsr.
Mr. Cone's observations are, in fact, bet
ter than all the printed descriptions that
have been published about King Kala
kaua's Insular dominions."
