- '
Somo of the western grain carrying rail
roads are now contending With what, for
want of a better name, la known as a
"car famine." , The cause 'of the present
shortage of cars Is the result of the. recent
restoration of grain rates, which will go
Into efTect April 1. The grain men are
anxious to get the grain out of their
elevators before the new rates are ef
fective and . are now moving the grain
as fast as the transportation lines can
haul It. This grain was sold on a basis
of tha old rates, and the time when the
higher rates will be In effect was placed
at a date when the railroad men believed
the grain men could clear themselves. A
railroad official states he believes the
grain will be moved without difficulty be
fore the first proximo.
"This talk about a shortage of cars Is
i really a myth after all," says one rail
road freight official. "It Is not long ago
that we had empty cars to burn standing
on our sidetracks nnd now the shippers
want to move nearly all the grain in
eight In a few days. A few cents differ
ence, for Instance, on the Chicago mar-
: ket will bring us orders for, any, 600 cars
in one morning. ' Then the present rate
situation Is having the effect of causing
the "tfnusiiaT fndveihent of grain."

ADVERTISING FOR RAILROADS
Newspapers Bring Beat Results
Are Being; More Liberally
I sed. '
nd
Charles S. Young, advertising manager for
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad,
gives It as his oplrtlon that advertising In
the newspapers Is the best form of pub
licity. The Inter-Ocean of yesterday con
tains the following account of an address
by Mr. Young:
"Railroad advertising In newspapers has
grown wonderfully during the last two
years, and railroads are all the time in
creasing the space they take In newspa
pers," was the statnent made, last night
by Charles S. v Young, advertising manager
for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Hallway company, In a lecture on "Railroad
Advertising," delivered to the students of
the extension course of tbe University of
Chlc.io'a railroad school at their hall In
the Fine Arts building.
He gave a thorough and lucid exposition
of the methods employed by advertising
departments of the large railroad of the
country In giving publicity to their re
spective lines and In setting forth the ad
vantages of superior service, low rates or
other Inducements that would sell tickets
for the road and Increase Its dividends.
Greatest results, he declared, had been ob
tained from newspaper advertising, and
other forms were gradually being dlsponsed
with In favor of It.
Mr. Young said, In part:
"Railroad advertising of today may, like
all Gaul, be divided Into three parts ad
vertising to the traveling public or to the
public who travel, advertising to the agents
of the home road, and advertising to
agents of connecting roads. The church
will pardon the Illustration if I say that
railroad advertising to agents may be lik
ened unto home and foreign missionary
work. Roth are Important, and. as with
other missionary work, it Is always a
question whether more money should be
spent In home or foreign work.
"One method used -by the railroad ocm
panles to promote publicity and bring busi
ness is through mailing cards, leaflets, told
ers and posters. Mailing cards and leaflets
are sent to the agents of connecting lines
by a railroad to keep them informed in re
gard to special features or advantages of
that road. Home agents of the road are
sent advertising matter In various forms,
including large newspaper advertisements,
newspaper clippings, cards and folders, to
bring before their minds special features of
the road and to arm them with Informa
tion which they can use in directing pa
tronage to the company.
"In the last two years, however, the rail
roads have found that newspaper advertis
ing pays best, and other forms have been
?:radually dispensed with and the money
ormerly devoted to them turned into news
paper publicity."

Announcements of the Theaters.
With matinee and evening performances '
today the current bill at the Orpheum will
be brought to a close.
Mme. Slapoffskl, the noted English prima
donna, will be the star next week. Mme. j
Slapoffskl has never before appeared In
Omaha, but those who keep posted on
musical events know her reputation as a
grand opera soprano. For nine years she
sang with the Carl Rosa opera company.
She only recently returned from a three
year engagement in Australia, where her
triumphs were no less marked than in
London. Winona Shannon, a sister of EfTle
Shannon, and her own company will pre
sent "His Long Ix)st Child." Others on
the bill are: Jack Mason's ''Society Belles,"
Lavender and Tomson in "A Touchdown,"
Newell and Nlblo, refined musicians; Ap
olo, high wire; Count Do Butz, cycle ex
pert, and new kinodrome pictures.
"The Girl and the' Bandit," which opens
its Omaha engagement with a matinee at
the Boyd on Sunday afternoon, deals wltb
a romance of Venice, and tells an attrac
tive story in a highly entertaining way.
It has all the essentials to a successful
comic opera, and has been well received
everywhere. It comes to Omaha direct
from a long run at the Studebaker theater
In Chicago, where It has drawn thousands,
and all well pleased. Frederick Colt
Wright composed the music and Mrs. A. C.
Tyler and J. Cheever Goodwin provide the
book and lyrics.. The company is a strong
one, selected as much for Its singing abil
ities as for Its personal appearance. Viola
Gillette's beautiful contralto voice will be
heard In the leading role, and Miss Alice
Dovey, so well known here. Is tho leading
soprano. Among the comedians are: Wal
ter Jones, Nell McNeill, Mabel Hite and
Alice Hosmer, and the chorus Is large and
well trained.
The Savage production of "Parsifal'' In
English is growing In local popularity, if
the'' inquiry concerning it is to be taken as
an Indication. The request for seats for
this great attraction continues steady, and
the Indications are that each performance
will be witnessed by a large assemblage.
The company Mr. Savage has assembled
for the production has been most carefully
selected, and contains a number of the best
opera singers in the world. It Is his idea
to make grand opera as popular In America
as it is In Europe, and he realties that this
can be done only by presenting tie operas
In English. His English grand opera com
pany has now been a success for several
seasons, and his "Parsifal" Is winning Its
way everywhere. The great muslo drama
will be given In Omaha exactly as it Is
produced In Bayreuth. with the exception
that It will be 'sung in English Instead of
German. Good seats may still be had at
the box office.

Determination to Submit Matter to m
Vote on April 4. Results in Rash
Proceedings with Rales
Suspended. ,
The city council met lust evening in spe
cial session and listened to the report of
the Judiciary committee on the new park
bond ordinance. This ordinance was favor
ably reported and was given a second read
ing. It calls for Issuing bonds In the sum
of $40,0C0 for park purposes. As the re
port of the Judiciary committee was
adopted without any comment the ordinance
was passed and signed by the muyor, tne
lules being suspended for the purpose.
In the matter of the paving of Missouri
avenue. Contractor Hugh Murphy, who' was
awarded the contract, pointed out to the
council that the ordinance was defective.
Another ordinance was Introduced and
given Its first reading. This ordinance pro
vides for the paving of Missouri avenue
from Thirteenth to Twenty-fourth streets
and designates that vitrified paving block
be the material to be used.
Today a copy of this paving ordinance
will be sent to the official papir of the
city and will be published two weeks. At
the expiration of the time for publication
it will be read the second and third times
and passed. On account of the necessity
for another ordinance the letting of the
contract for this work will be delayed for
about thirty days. When passed bids will
be advertised for and opened In one of the
regular meetings. Property owners are anx
ious to have this street paved and are
rather annoyed at the delay. No change
will have to bo made in the ordinance pro
viding for the cur'blng as the material to
be used was specified in the original ordi
nance. With the passing of the park bond ordi
nance the needed publication will be made
at once in order that the proposition may
be voted or. at the election to be hold on

Condition of Colorado Sheep.
J. B. McCtarler of Greeley, Colo., was a
visitor at Uie stock yards yesterday. In
speaking of conditions In the vicinity of
Greeley Mr. McCarter said that there had
been but little snow this winter and It
remained on tho ground only a. short time.
Stock came ' out of the winter . In good
shape. More sheep than usual are being
fed around Greeley than for some years
past. A good many sheep, said Mr. Mo-
Carter, were put In the feed lots late and
these will most likely be. sheared before
being shipped to market. Referring to the
wool crop, Mr. McCarter stated that the
bulk of the crop had been contracted for
at from 20 to 24 cents per pound. The
range through the state has been good all
winter and farmers and stockmen are
prosperous.
Wiping; Out Decrease.
The decrease In live stock receipts is
being wiped out quite rapidly. There Is
now an Increase in hog receipts of nearly
15.000 and the cattle decrease is down to
18,000 head. As for sheep, a decrease of
50,000 Is still shown. This sheep decrease
will, it Is expected, be overcome before. a
great while. Local packers are in need
of sheep and the prospect for big runs
soon Is encouraging.

Unable to Reach a Verdict, but Judsre
Kennedy Will Give It Plenty
lime.
Shortly after 6 o'clock Friday afternoon
Judge Kennedy ordered his bailiff to bring
into court the Jury in the Rezek damage
case. This Jury had been out since 6 o'clock
on Thursday trying to agree on a verdict
for or against the three saloon keepers of
South Omaha and their bondsmen, who are
being sued by Mrs. Rosa Rexek for 5,000
damages for the loss of her husband.
When the Jurors appeared Judge Kennedy
asked them it there was any reasonable
chance that they could reach an agree
ment. He said he did not wish to know
how they stood numerically, but simply as
to whether or not there was any chance of
an agreement being reached.
The foreman responded that the Jury had
taken thirty-one ballots and that on the
last ballet they had stood Just as they did
on the second ballot. He volunteered no
opinion as to the possibility of getting to
gether 'in one hour or in one day.
After considering the statement of the
foreman for a few moments Judge Ken
nedy said he would allow them a little
more time to consider tha matter and the
Jury again picked up their hats and coats
and proceeded to their pen In the basement
of the court house.
Several 'of the attorneys interested In the
case were present, but outside of the
Judge's question and the Jury foreman's
answer nothing was said.

failed to got In line. The concert opened
with Herman's "Golden Crown" overture,
which the orchestra of students, numbering
twenty, played very creditably, under the
direction of Lena Ellsworth Dale. Some of
the musicians were small and most of them
were girls. The general effect was good.
Plccolomlnl's "Star Tide" was the second
number on the program and was well sung
by Miss Nell Ellsworth, with violin ob
llgato by Mrs. Dale. The singer was ap
plauded. Mr. MacDonald played yThe
Palms" on his trombone for the third num
ber, with orchestral accompaniment. Mr.
Ritchie did some pranks with Hamlet s
soliloquy, much to the amusement of the
audience, and then little - Madge West
played Fisher's "Hornpipe" on her violin.
She plays very well for bo young a per
former. Walter Dale closed the first half
of the program with "Then You'll Remem
ber Me" from the "Bohemian Girl." Tho
orchestra opened the second half of tho
program with some "Wang" - selections,
played well, although the changes In time
bothered some of the musicians a little.
The orchestra also closed the evening with,
Dalby's. "Uncle Sam." The college band.
which has been organized but a short time,
played "Dreamy Eyes" pleasingly, all
things considered Mr. and Mrs. Dale and
Mr. Mlddleton gave Randegger's trio, "Th
Mariners," effectively, and Dr. Laird blew
a concert polka by Allberti through his
cornet with the usual sweet result. Mrs.
Dale and Miss Ellsworth added to the pro
gram with a duet , by Glover, which was
warmly applauded.
