Wng o thm Trolley Um and Soon Will B. a, Memory Only. Th. third cable tramway which was built In th. world will soon be a thing of the past; the work of wrecking It is now In tull blast on North Twentieth street In this city. It la forced to roak. way for mora modern and cheaper mean, of transporta tlon. Away back In IfiM, when Om,ha. began to grow. th. building of the tramway which is now being wrecked was on. of th. princi pal things that lout stimulus to t'... city's growth. In fact, It Is said that the great start toward upbuilding mad. by th. city at about that time was principally due to th. beginning of th. cabl. road and the Importation of large numbers of workman to assist In Its construction. The road when completed comprised about sis miles of double truekuga and the cost of Its construction. Including equipment and power house, is roughly estimated at this time at upwards of 11,000.000. Th. capital Invested was furnUhed principally by Omaha .men, who saw visions of Inrge rv turns, but they reckoned vithout their twit, for in a few years the cheapness and motency oi eiecirn-ny a muiivt power were discovered and the cable lines of th. country were relegated to the rear. Rlalnar Crln Car. Th. first cabl. Iln. was constructed In Baa Vtanulsco, and whaa It was opened. was conceded to b. on. of th. wonders of th. world. Kansas City was th. next to tak. up this means of transportation and Omaha soon followed. Everyone living her. at th. time of th. opening of th. Dodge and Harney lines remembers that it was th. general opinion at that Um. that th. futur. of this city was assured. Real estate went up along the line and everyone talked of the comforts of a sub urban horn, and travel to it while they wer. being Jerked, hammered and twlxted by th. unreliable grip car on their way out. Th. cabl. car had a way of Jumping when th. grip was applied and landing in th. middle of the next block before It touched the track, and when it did touch it was going some, but contact with the ruils immediately slackened th. rat. of speed when It seemed to settle down with a grout) of relief and remained compara tively steady until the next corner was reached and another stop made. In this way the passenger reached his home by a succession of rude Jerks, but ha thought it was all right, tor he knew nothing better at that tluiu, as those people cun testify who have taken the trip up th. St. Mary's avenue hill In a horse car on a day when ths thermometer stood at SO below and they had nothing of a comforting nature but a bale of hay on th. floor of th. car to bury their, feet In. As an Investment ths cabl. road was not a howling success. On. of th. men who was Instrumental In building It stated that In his opinion every nlckla taken In by a conductor on th. cabl. Una coat between 7 and t cents. Dut once In the memory of those who used to run the road did It pay, md that was In 1893, during the popu list national convention, bald at th. Coli seum, which at that ttm. was at th. end of th. line. The pops wer. In town In force, and they all took a rtda on the cable line. The convention laited pirt of three dsys and during ali of that time the owners of th. Una believed brighter days wer. ahead, but with th. departure of th. pop. their hopes fell one mora, and th. Iln. resumed th. usual tenor of Its way as a money losing proposition. When a Narr "Hop" Arrived. All th. boys used to stand around and watch operations when a new spool of cabl. cam. to town. These spools weighed upward of 80,000 pounds, and It required some power to transport them from place to place. Housemovers were employed to take them from the cars to th. power house, where the end of the rope wag at tached and drugged into the slot by tha power of the engines. The longest cable which ever came to town was Si.CuO feet In length. It weighed two and a half pounds to the foot and cost 12 cents per pound, or $10,000. Tha old cables were traded In on the price of the new ones, but they did hot reduce the cost much. Th. road was operated from 1888 to I'M. The Podge street Una was originally built from Tenth and Jackson to Twentieth and Cass, th. south end being afterward ex tended to th Union station and the north and to Lak. street. It required four times as much power to mov. a cable car, ap proximately, as It requires today to move a trolley car. Th. cost of keeping the Iln. In repair was much greater than the sam. class of expense with the present system. Wheels, cables, etc., wer. con stantly wearing out and had to be replaced and men had to be constantly employed Inspecting th. line to look for breaks. At times the cable would pert, and then everything was tied up until the break was found and a splice was made. Usually it took soma tlma to get things In running order after a break occurred. Ths largest number of cars ever run on tha lines of the company was twenty seven. The roadway, including the build ing of tha concrete cable slot, cost 13 per foot. This concrete slot is the hardurt thing tha workmen have to contend with now in tha wrecking of tha linn. The concrete has set and age has hardened it until It Is almost like rock. Work was begun on wrecking It last year, and dyna mite was used. This was very efficient, but there was too much danger of In juring bystanders, so tha plan was given up, and men are now employed with ham mers to do th. work. Th. concrete is being left In th. ground to act as a has. for th. ties of th. new track, and it makes a good one. Days of tho Merger. About two years after the completion of the road the company which controlled it was consolidated with the company which owned th. horse car ll.iea It was found necessary for the two companies to get together In order to secure interchange of buHlness. Many people refused to pay 6 cents for a ride when they could not get a trnnafer from the horse car to tha cable, or vice versa. Prior to the merger F. A. Tucker, who is general superintendent of the present company, was superintendent of the cable company, and William A. Smith, who is at present general (manager of the lines, held a t.ln. liar position with tha old horse c;ir lines. The original company which built the line was composed of B. K. Johnson, who was president of the company; L. IS. Wil liams, Charles B. llustln, W. V. Morse, tr. 8. 0. Mercer, Captain liussell, B V, Smith and others. All of them were promi nent citizens In tliobo days, and some of them are yet for that mutter. Hut at that time they were tne leaders In tho Omaha world of finunce und business. They were all very enthusiastic and very much inter ested in seeing the city advance. At the tlma the line was built the cable was th. best means of locomotion for cities known to man. Electric power was still in Its infancy, so fur as being ap plied to railways was concerned, and very few people thought it would ever amount to anything in the transportation line. All this time, and a short time at that, has changed. We who ride In the electric cars of today and never had the mis fortune to patronise the old cable rout, cannot know tLe loxurlwua dlffereuva, but those who do know tha difference are not often heard to murmur at seeming hard ship, which they have to undergo at times. It is generally tha younger cltlien who speaks of poor car service, and kicks at tha much worried conductor. Perhaps in another twenty years we may see as great a change as from th. horse car to the trolley car, but it does not seem probable. MUTE FIFE AND DRUM CORPS New York Institute Ha.
