Apparently Retired.
' "The Nebraska and Wyoming division of

division, C. C. Ilughea will remain In
charge of the operating department and
John A. Kuhn will be assistant general
freight and passenger figent of the Chicago
ft Northwestern railway, with headquarters

partment of the Nebraska and Wyoming
division. W. H. Jonea will be division
freight agent In charge of the freight side
and J. W. Munn will be division passenger
agent In charge of the passenger depart
ment. AH this Is to take effect on March 1, and
the Information was brought to Omaha
yesterday from Chicago by General Manager
Bldwell and General Freight Agent Kuhn.
who went there on Mondiy for ttls purpose.
Mr. Bldwell on hie return made the follow.
Ing statement:
"The Northwestern lines west of the
Missouri river will on and after March 1
be operated as the Nebraska and Wyoming
division of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway. The offices will remain In Omaha
and the business of the linea will be con
ducted In all essential particulars the same
a heretofore. I think I am safe In saying
that I ahall remain In charge as manager,
Mr. Kuhn in charge of traffic and Mr.
Hughes In charge of operating. Borne de
tails had not been fully arranged at the
time of my laet advices and I am not In
position, therefore, to say more at this
time."
- No Mention of Dachnnan.
Thus the changes in the traffic depart
ment are all arranged and the new titles
et. Mr. Jones has been chief clerk in the
freight department, Mr. Munn chief clerk
In the passenger department. The circular
announcing the new appointments is Issued
by H. R. McCullough, third vice president
of the Chicago Northwestern railway and
in charge of traffic matters. No provision
Is made for General Passenger Agent Bu
chanan in this circular, both freight and
passenger Jurisdiction being combined under
Mr. Kuhn, who haa been general freight
agent.
In the operating department exact titles
are not yet published. This department Is
In direct charge of President Marvin
Hughltt, who has been ill for ten days, and
has not yet Issued his circular on thla mat
ter. Mr. Bldwell's statement conveys the
general Information, save as to the titles
he and Mr. Hughes will have. Mr. Bldwell
w(ll probably be made an assistant to Gen
' eral Manager Gardner and Mr. Hughes dl
' vision superintendent In charge of- the Ne
braska and Wyoming division.
Thus the three divisions of the Elkhorn
line, the South Platte, the Eastern and the
Black Hills divisions, are to be combined
Into one division of the Northwestern. All
lettering, advertising, stationery and trans
portation will be changed immediately.
The division will be an Integral part of the
Northwestern line and will have no distin
guishing mark from It.
No change In the office forces will result.
Staffs will remain as now and the same
headquarters be occupied as now. They are
far more commodious and dignified than the
usual division headquarters In most places
on almost any road.

to the proposition of the Chicago A North
western railway to put colonist ratea in
ffect to South Dakota and the Black Hills
to go on sale from March 17 to 21. The
remonstrance made ia that the section Is
not an agricultural country, and there U
no reason for offering one-way colonist
ratea to It.
NEW HEADGEAR AT CITY HALL
Blearest and Prondest Variation on

A new automobile cap has arrived at the
City hall and has been declared the "thing"
by the fashion dictators there. It is the
biggest and proudest variation on the Ger-
'man yachting cap, made famous and popu

wearing one needs no umbrella . when It

eaves of the cap project out like the halos

'front at an angle of 46 degrees and with

Rose Coghlan, as Taula Ray
Paula Tanqueray In her best aspect Is not
a very attractive person, particularly to
people who have old fashioned notions on
certain points of personal behavior and re
sponsibility, and the peculiar attributes of
her character that might appeal to those
who affect the "modern" Ideas of social
existence are hardly those that Rose Cogh
lan in her mature years Is capable of giv
ing their best expression. So, In a word,
the one-night engagement of Miss Coghlan
in the Arthur Wing Plnero exposition of an
admitted fact may be classed as both an
artistic and a social failure. Some two
or three hundred people braved the storm
to attend the performance, but these were
neither responsive to the efforts of the
actress or greatly moved by her anguish
of soul. Borne, In fact, were sufficiently
dense of understanding as to actually
snicker at lines that might have sounded
funny to a thoughtless person, but which
were Intended to represent a longing born
of desperation or the despairing admission
of an Inexorable fact. This lack of sym
pathy and understanding on the part of the
audience had Its reflex effect on the com
pany, with a very obvious result.
Miss Coghlan shows plainly the flight of
years. Even at the best she was never by
nature or training fitted for the part of
the woman who tried to break down that
barrier erected long ago against the sister
who has sinned. Mr. Plnero merely gave
more extended expression to a social axiom
In writing "The Second Mrs. Tanqueray,"
and while some actresses have undertaken
to make the part a plea for the forgive
ness of the woman. Miss Coghlan merely
succeeds In making plain the utter hope
lessness of her situation. From any stand
point the piece is not especially Inspiring,
and with such Interpretation as It had last
night It becomes positively depressing.
In some respect Miss Cogblan's support
Is as unfortunate In conception of the In
tention of the play as she Is In her ls
terpretatlon of the leading role. For ex
ample, Mr. Ritchie, who has the part of
Aubrey Tanqueray, admits his defeat be
fore the first shot Is fired in the battle.
According to his Idea of the role, Tanque
ray knew he was making a blunder, but
refused to withdraw even while he had an
opportunity, and persisted In going ahead
to what he was convinced could only bring
misery to him. The real Tanqueray bad
some sort of Quixotic notion that hi would
win In time but the Ritchie Tanqueray
fails to disclose this at any time. David
Elmer as Caley Drummle, the hard-headed,
cynical man of the world, who really loved
his friend, seemed to be the only one with
a real good notion of what was expected
of him. The engagement was for one night
only.
FOOD PROTECTION
The Circuit Court of the t ailed States
Decldea In Favor of the
In-er-seal Package.
A decision far-reaching In Its effect and
of Interest to all lovers of pure food, has
Just been handed down by Judge Adams In
the circuit court of the United States.
The suit In question was brought against
the Union Biscuit company for Infringement
on the In-er-seal package, controlled ex
clusively by the National Biscuit company,
for the protection of biscuit and crackers
against dust, moisture, odor and germs.
In deciding against the Union Biscuit
company Judge Adams says:
"The proof abundantly shows that prior
to the Invention of the patent the old paper
cartons or boxes were inadequate to the de
mands of the service required of them; that
their contents deteriorated rapidly in sub
stance and flavor; that they were subjected
to the baneful effects of the air, moisture
and dust. Since the Introduction of the box
of the patent a radical change has taken
place. This box has been found equal to
the climatic and other local conditions In all
parts of the country, from New Orleans to
New York, from Florida to Minnesota and
from California to Massachusetts. The uni
form testimony from all these regions Is to
the effect that the contents of the box are
preserved in their original freshness and
flavor.
"The whole testimony In my opinion
clearly shows that the box of the patent
materially facilitates the distribution of In
expensive food products to the consumer
and at the same time lessens the cost and
enhances the Intrinsic value of such prod
ucts." Judge Adams' full decision against the in
fringement not only shows the great Im
portance of the In-er-seal package, but Is
so broad and conclusive as to prevent any
further violation of the rights of the Na
tional Biscuit company.

Jorlty of the Directors.
The Board of Directors of the Auditorium
company opened bids Wednesday night for
the construction of the stone and brick
work for the superstructure of the building,
and within a few days will let the contract
for the work.
It Is said the contract would have been
awarded Wednesday night but for a
question raised as to the time
In which the work can be com
pleted. The board desires to hsve the
building completed as soon as possible, and
the lowest responsible bidder would not
make as short time in the contract as some
of the others, so the matter will be taken
up with him to see If he cannot reduce the
time.
The exact figures were not given out, but
It Is understood that the bids were com
paratively close, and that the bid which
was considered the most desirable was ap
proximately $65,000.
The contract cannot be entered into until
the return of F. A. Nash, president of the
company, who left the city Wednesday
night for a few days.
TROOPS FOR FAIR DEDICATION
Officers of Department of the Mlaaonrl
Are Beginning; to Make
Plans.
Officers of the Department of the Mis
souri are beginning to discuss the move
ment of troops to St. Louis to attend the
ceremonies of the dedication of the Louis
iana Purchase exposition. It is expected
that troops from Forts Crook, Riley, Leav
enworth and Jefferson barracks will be
present. General Corbln, adjutant general
of the army, has accepted the invitation
of the managers of the exposition to act
as grand marshal of the civic and military
parade and It Is expected that he will per
sonally designate the troops which will be
In the line of march. The United States
has no money available for the payment of
the transportation of the troops and the
extent of the demonstration will depend to
a large extent upon the funds voted by the
exposition management for the purpose.
From the Department of the Missouri
3,200 men, with five bands and full comple
ment of officers, can be sent If desired, In
cluding every branch of the service with
the exception of the coast artillery. This
number is made up of artillery, cavalry,
engineers and infantry to the number of
1,400 from Fcrt Leavenworth; artillery,
cavalry and Infantry from Fort Riley to
the number of 1,000; cavalry and artillery
from Jefferson barracks to the number of
440 and Infantry from Fort Crook to the
number of 360. The dedication exercises
will be held April 30 and May 1 and 2.
JOBBERS TO ENTER PROTEST
Large Detestation Will Attend Meeting-
of Western General
Passenger Agents. '
The Western Association of General Pas
senger Agents will hold Its session at Hot
Springs, Ark., March 6, and a large num
ber of the Jobbers of Omaha and towns on
the Missouri and Mississippi rivers are
making arrangements to be present to pro
test against the change In the' excess bag
gage rates. ' These rates were to have
gone Into effect March 1, but their effective
ness was postponed one month In order to
permit the Jobbers to show cause why they
should not be enforced. It is expected that
at the meeting there will be at least 150
Jobbers from Omaha, St. Joseph, Kansas
City, St. Taul, Minneapolis and other west
ern cities, each loaded with arguments as
to why the rate should not be changed.
Said an Omaha jobber: "If this new rate
ts enforced It will cause the establishment
of a hack line paralleling every railroad line
In the west. The new rate is excessive only
as it applies to short distances, and the
towns are so close together in Iowa, Ne
braska and the neighboring states tha by
a little judicious division of time a man
can make two or more of them In a day.
He can drive the six or seven miles Inter
vening and carry his sample cases cheaper
than be can carry them by train It the new
ratea are enforced, and this will certslnly
be done by those houses which carry large
lines of samples."
