All kind of material la being delayed e-n account of the Inability of the railroad to handle ear of freight One coal dealer hat thirty cars of coal standing on sidetracks In the vicinity of South Omaha and finds It Im possible to get the cart set Into hit yard. This It only one Instance. Other coal and dealers In building material are having a hard time getting twitching done. The Immense Increase In the freight traffic on all lines this fall has caused confusion and delays. Coal dealers are very anxious to get the coat that they hold Invoices for Into their yards and unloaded before et tremely cold weather comes, otherwise here will be suffering among those who hava 9t already In Id In the winter's stock of fuel. Officials of the railroads here say that everything possible Is being done to get the loaded cars switched and unloaded, and they promise that the blockade In the yards will not last a great while longer. Every contractor doing business In the city Is complaining about hla. Inability to get materiel. Material to be used In some of the buildings now being erected hers has been Invoiced for some time, but the cars cannot be located Coal and building material Is what Is now badly wanted in order to place merchants and builders la good shape to start Into the winter. Completing; Electtoa Arrangements The voting machine custodians will finish up their Instructions to Judges and clerks today and final Instructions will be given. All officers of election boards must be al their respective precincts at 7:15 on Tues day morning. Supplies to be used will be brought down from the county clerk's of- flea thlt afternoon and placed In packages. The fire and police commissioners have directed Chief Brlggs to detail an officer for each voting prellnct. These officers will report at the office of City Clerk Oll lln at ;45 a. m. Tuesday and be handed the package of supplies. The officer will be allowed thirty minutes to reach his polling precinct and at 7:16 will turn the supplies over to the Judges of election. By this method It Is thought that there will be no confusion and consequently no excuse for the polls not opening at t a. m. The cus todians have caused railings to be erected around each voting machine, and every h thing will be ready Monday night for the i i tk. 1 1 .t . V)rviliua VI Vila The republican and democratic county central committees have secured coplet of the last ten day'a registration from the reg istrars In each preclnot, and the city clerk will not be compelled to hurry the work of making copies of the registration books to day. - Many Washouts Reported. Police officers and others have reported a large number of washouts on the streets where the road mschlne has not been worked this fall. Missouri avenue Is In an almost Impassable condition and It will very likely bs several days before the work of curbing this thoroughfare can be resumed. The condition of Missouri avenue at thit time Is such that all idea of paving this fall has. been abandoned.- Contractor Mc Gowan will make an effort to get the curb ing set as far west as Twentieth street, but i unless there' Is a spell of good weather even this much cannot be accomplished. On the Twenty-fourth street paving the con tractors will get the old pavement torn up as far south as F street and carted away, hut there la not much hope of much paving being laid this fall, as It will soon lie too cold to use cement successfully In the laying of the concrete base. More Delay at Freight Depot. Saturday a water main at the site of the proposed I'nlon Pacific freight depot burst and flooded the excavation. The water was shut off by the Omaha Water company and repair will be made as speedily as pos sible. There has been a great deal of trouble at this site. Klrst, the workmen broke Into 'the sewer, causing annoyance and delay. Then came the caving In of the west wall of the excavation and next the breaking of the water pipe. It Is considered more than probable that this site will be aban doned and the depot erected where the Union Pacific can have more room and not he so close to the filled ground, where the tracks at the foot of N street are laid, fennel! Meeting Tonight. This evening the city council Is to meet In regular monthly session. There Is a large amount of routine business to be transacted. Bills for October are to be Al lowed on the general, fire and street repair funds. It is expected that the amended or dinances for the vacating of some streets end alleys In the northwestern part of the city for the Union Pacific cut-off to Elkhorn will be Introduced and read for the first time. Boms steps will most likely be taken tn straighten out the tangle In the refund ing bond Issue, so that the contract sub mitted by the purchasers and the resolu tion of the council will agree. These re funding bonds were sold a week ago to a Boston firm of bond buyers, arid it was not tint II a day or so . ago, when the histories r.ere being prepared, that the discrepancy between the contract and the council reso lution was discovered. Board of Education Meeting. This evening Is the date of the regular monthly meeting of the Board of Education. Aside from the routine business It Is ex pected that the question of constructing a ward school building In the vicinity of Twenty-third and U streets will be brought tp.

Neher was brought to South Omaha yesterday from Beatrice by Detec tive Elsfelder. He Is wanted for passing worthless checks and drafts. About ten days ago Neher passed a draft for $10.50 on . the proprietor of one of the hotels here and left the city. He was located en a farm near Beatrice. In addition to trn worthless draft, Neher passed a couple of checks on banks where he had no ac count. He admitted ,to the police that he was guilty. Magle City ftosslp. George W. Mosher. who has been seri ously 111, is much better. Residents in the vicinity of Thirtieth and Madison streets are petitioning for an electric street llsht. This evening the I.otos club will give the second of a series of select dancing parties at Workman temple. On account of the light registration it Is expected that at least 200 votes will be sworn in on election day. Bev. Andrew Kenwlck preached at the fnlted Fresbyterlan church last evening on the topic. "The Master In Overalls." " Property owners are beginning to take quite an Interest in the sewer bond propo sition, snd the statement is heard on all sides that the bonds are sure to carry. The ladles of the United Presbyterian church are preparing for their annual chrysanthemum show to be held at the church on the evenings of November 16 and 17. A fine program is tietng pre pared. ' GOES IOWA MAN ONE BETTER Holt Coanty Man Takes Only Two Hatha In Fifty-Five Tenrs. -V One or two baths, the two a little uncer tain. In fifty-five years Is a more astonish ing record than that of the Iowa man whose Wife got a divorce from him because he had not taken one in twenty years. Tet this is the deliberate assertion of John E. Anderson of Doreey, Holt county, Ne braska. He has been hanging around the city Jail for three days past, trying to get a trace of $S0 he lost at the hands of some colored denlsen of the lower wards laat week. The captain had Anderson In his eye, no doubt, when he mentioned the Iowa case. Anderson, without a blush or a stam mer, went hlrh one better. He said: "I am 77 years old and I haven't taken a bath sine I came here from Scotland, fifty-five, years ago. No, I believe I did take one, or was It two?" "Are you surs about thatf" asked the cap tain "Well, I'm not so sure about the two; but I guess I'm sure about one, anyway. I'm getting forgetful some way. I never was slclt a day In my life. I used 'to drive the stage out of Dorsey for years. Everybody knows me up there." The old fellow stroked his whiskers proudly, whiskers that had grown until only the whistling winds of Holt county were responslble1for their not reaching his knees. He took the sly thrusts of the wholo office force with perfect good nature. It appeared to him that the man who bathed was the man out of the ordinary. "What's the use, That bath I took never did me any good. If it did I've forgotten it." A Reliable- Remedy for Cronp. With the dry, cold weather of the early winter months, parents of croupy children should be cm the alert for ominous symp toms. There Is no cause for anxiety when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy la kept In tho home. If th'i medicine Is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse or even after tho croupy cough has appeared, the attack may be warded off. Mrs. S. Roslnthal of Turner, Mich., says: "We have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for Ourselves and children for several years and like It very much I think It Is the only remedy for crouo and can highly recommend It."

At the Boyd theater this afternoon, at i o'clock, Mr. RlchurdOutcault, originator of "Buster Brown" and a lot of other good Btuff In the newspapers, will deliver a lec ture, or rather an Illustrated talk, on his experiences and travels. Mr. Outcault Is' a humorist as well as a cartoonist, and his tour through the country so far has been much In the nature of an ovation. On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Wilton Lac kaye will appear at a special matinee in his famous role of Svengall In "Trilby. His engagement in "Tho Fit"' lasts till after Tuesday night.

Desmond Short oa Cash. J. TK Desmond, giving his address as the Klsasser hotel, complained ot the police station that he had Inst two 10 gold pieces during the course of the afternoon. He claims that he visited the resort of Matiie Barnett. a colored woman of the under world, and she robbed him. The woman was placed under arrest, nut It developes that Desmond visited a number of other places and finally went to the City hotel, where he went to sleep and did not know of I. Is loss until he had wakened un the second time. When he found his money gone he S'lHneeted the colored woman. It is not probable that he will be able to make a case, and it is very certain that he will not get his money hack. The woman gave her address as 1314 Capitol avenuo. The charge of being a suspicious character was placed agalnHt her at the Jail. Put your Want Ads In The Bee. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS B. B. Root of Lincoln is at the Paxton. P. W.

Wilton tckaye and company In "The Pit." a play in tour acts and six scenes, ossed on the novel of the same name by tranK Norrts; arranged for acting by Channlng Pollock; under the direction of William A. Brady. The principals: Curtis Jadwln Wilton Lackaye Pheldon t'orthU Walter Pennington Samuel Oretry A. H. Stuart Charles Cressier George O. Morris Landry court rrank 1'ek.um Mone. Grady Quincy C. Bess. Jr. Calvin Hardy Crookes. .Hale Hamilton Hargus. a derelict Water Boy ., . ...K. H. Heardon Willie Butteit Jane Oaker ...Beulah Watson Ada Gilman Marie Morgan Louise Everts Laura Dearborn Page Dearborn , Mrs. Emily Weasels... Mrs. Charles Cressier. Mrs. Kate F'erguson... Isabel Gretry .Agnes De Lane As a melodramatic spectacle, "The Pit Is almost unapproachable; as a work of literature, it may have a place, Just as all sorts of unpleasant things have a place In the economy of nature. If we but study hard enough and dig deep enough to find them; as a psychological study, It Is crude. It offers the contrast of a neurotic woman and a phlegmatic man, with a number of others who are thrown In to make weight. To offset the manly attributes of the hero, we are given two men, one his business and the other his social antithesis. The uncertainties and whimsical moods of the heroine are offset by the straightforward ness of hr sister. The story Is of tho modern type, In that It begins unpleas antly, and runs a more or less direct course through a continuing atmosphere of unpleasant things, till it reaches a con ventional ending in the anti-climax. What ever of vitality it possesses It derives from the virile characterization given by Mr. Lackaye to the role of Curtis Jadwln. Mr. Lackaye has almost achieved the Impossi ble by visualizing the character of Curtis Jadwln, and making him a man of flesh and blood almost as the author had de scribed him. Jadwln Is hardly a type, but Is used ex cellently well to Illustrate the very strong point Mr. Norris had In mind when he wrote the second of his trilogy. It Is an exposition of the futility of man pitting hlmrelf against his fellowmen and nature in the effort to control and fix the price of the world's food product, or any part of It. The suicide of Cressier, the down fall of Jadwln, all the other incidents con nected with the affair are but signboards along the road that point to the fate of everybody who has tried that game. More than eighteen years have gone by since Benjamin Partington Hutchinson sent wheat to $2.00 tin the , Chicago Board of Trade, and there are men well up In the business todav who HVfr heard nf "Olrl '. Hutch." while others can easily recall the fact that the old man later presided over a peanut stand with the same Insouciance that marked his conduct on the afternoon he made the settlement tha.t made him a many times over millionaire and, as was then thought, famous. Omaha cannot match the story of "Old Hutch." but over at the Board of Trade building here they can tell you of how grain was hauled In by express trains to meet a settlement, and our grain exchange hasn't seen its second birthday yet. In time we may have an "Old Hutch." and maybe a Curtis Jadwln. or even a Calvin Hardy Crookes. But this Is quite beside the point. Mr Lackaye makes Jadwln a man of com manding personality, one who dominates but who does not bully, He even showed mercy to Crookes, a rather melodramatic bit, but quite in keeping with a rational conception of his character. And, best of all, his faith In the woman he loves It equal to his trust in hljnejf, and be doesn't for a moment suspeci'.-the meaning of the presence of the artist in., his home. He is wrapped up in business, i bin no less In his wife, and his love allows no room for doubt. On the contrary, Miss Oaker rinds herself called upon to give life to the part of woman who is unreasonable In many trivial ways. She wants to be loved, but fancies herself neglected because her husband doesn't make loving her' a business. This is strongly brought out; I .aura loves Curtis fondly, and is clean-minded as well; she knows that the protestations of Corthell are an Insult to her, but she Is selfish to a degree, and allows herself to think her husband neglects her because he is not dangling at her heels as is the man who is bending his every effort to seduce her. She Is saved by a scratch; It might have been a bit more In keeping with the character of Laura to have had her gone with Corthell as Jadwln sank Into the chair, and have left the ruin complete. . But Mr. Norris preferred to send the woman who couldn't be happy with millions to try a new life of poverty, Just because she hsd a chance to be "chummy with her husband." It's Very pretty and casts a glamour over the end ing. But Laura would have been a lot happier if she had had some of that com mon sense before the crash came. Miss Oaker gives a most Illuminating exposition of this lesson to wives who cannot under stand that "Man's love Is of his life a thing apart," and that he may be Inordi nately fond of his wife and still have busi ness sway from home. In the main the characters In the long Hat are well assumed, and the performance Is an excellent one. Th earlier scenes, leading up to the great climax In the wheat pit, are effectively produced; that which closes the second act, a suicide, being ac tually depressing, while the opening scenes of the fourth act. In which the attempt to corner wheat proves a failure and Jadwln and his partners are ruined, form the most Intensely realistic pictures ever offered at the Boyd. It Is a broker's office and the wheat pit actually reproduced on the stage, with all the excitement and thrilling action incident to the progress of a tremendous deal. A late train was responsible for a delay of nearly an hour In raising the curtain last night, but the large audience waited good naturedly and then gave a genuinely en thusiastic reception to the players. Both Mr. Lackaye and Miss Oaker triumphed, and their associates share with them. "The Pit" is as surely a hit In Omaha as it has been anywhere along Its route. The bill will be the same tonight and tomorrow night, and on Tuesday at a special matinee "Trilby" will be produced, with Mr. Lackaye in hla role of Svengall. Vaadevllle at tho Orpheuut. The bill offered at the Orpheum for the current week is in a way a typical vaude ville bill. It has everything from the classic to the circus. The classlo Is afforded by Rudolph Voelker and wife. Herr Voelker being a violinist ot undeniable virtuosity, while his wife, a beautiful woman, accom panies him with exquisite taste on the piano. Manager Belter has secured a "baby grand" for this, a fact which the music loving people who go to hear this pair will duly appreciate. The 'numbers selected by Heir Vueiker yesterday afternoon, a fan tasia caprice, and a Russian folk song, were better adapted to tha exhibition of his technical skill than to pleasing a Sunday audience with their melodic quality. Id a variation of a popular air, played In re sponse to an Insistent demand for aa en core, Herr Voelker showed the tonlo quality of his Instrument, its notes being rich and resonant and of a volume of such Intensity as to Indicate Its possibilities. The other end of the program ts furnished by a monkey trained to do a number of acrobatic stunts. He Is surely "a amooaln' little cuss." Between these come several acts of mora or less merit. Carleton Macy and Maud Hull present a little play by Clay Clement, "A Timely Awakening," In which a husband dreams an Illustration of how things might look If his wife went on ts he does. It Is very neatly done. Dave Oenaro and Ray Bailey have a lot of stuff parked away In "A Cigarette Case," all of which Is very amus ing and which gives them a chance to do their famous cake walk. After seeing them one can understand why they got the prise above all others at the New Tork competition last season. Hal Merrltt, clever boy that he Is, entertains with a mono logue, a recitation, some side-splitting Imi tations and some well drawn cartoons. He is Immensely Improved over his last visit to Omaha. Brown and Brown, a pair of In dian college boys, do work In the same line as Merrltt, but with much less effect. Stella Lee Is a graceful and lively dancer. The Pictures In the klnodreme are very Interest ing. "Inco" at the Rnrwaed. The Woodward Stock company hat done nothing better. than this farce since the engagement opened here and the big Sun day audiences never stopped laughing all through the show. This Is not to say that the company has not tackled more ambi tious things on the stage of the new thea ter, but "Incog" Is a vehicle In which all the players find suitable and apparently easy seats. All those In the cast do so well with their allotments that tt la hard to single out any for special words. It seemed, however, that a majority of the success fell to Frederick Fulton. This seasoned actor went at his role, that of a choleric old man. with a fine ardor and discrimina tion. Albert Morrison has on of the per sonations that he is best In straight, easy comedy of the gentleman of leisure order. Miss Gerald and Dolly Davit have the best parts among the women, with little left to Miss Lang and Miss Hill but looking pretty and falling victims to the Irreslstl ble laughter, whtch at times was as evl dent behind as before the footlights. Cecil Owen, Harry Long, Grant Simpson and John Daviea awe capable accessories to the fact, i "The Volnnteer OraanUt" at the Krng This is a pretty little comedy-drama, built around a series of incidents supposed to have occurred In a small Vermont town. It Introduces the usual number of rural types and a hero who has seen better days and who has traveled the booze route to the everlasting bonfire with much assiduity. Matters shape themselves so he can take the place of tke missing organist at the Metnooist cnurcr., -and his regeneration begins. The expected love story, with a dash of villainy, cornea In. One of the fea tures of the performance Is the singing of "The Holy City" by Willie Nelson, whose sweet soprano voice Is a real treat. Mr. John T. Doyle has the leading role, that of Tom Sturgls, the tramp who volunteers to play the organ, and does It quite effectively Both performances yesterday were wit nessed by large audiences, who were Im mensely pleased with the show. "The Vol unteer Organist" will be repeated this even ing, closing the engagement. ELECTION BOARD GRAFT TOO Two of Leslie's Associates Get' Them elves Appointed as Election Omcers. So accustomed hava the clerks in the county Judge's office became to amplifying their salaries by fee grafts and other per quisites that two of them have also put a line out for an extra nine dollars snelce out of the public treasury for service on the election boards tomorrow. In the third precinct of the First ward Clyde C. Sundblad will act as election Of ficer. In tha second precinct of the Fourth ward M. L. Eugarman is down as Judge of election. . Both Sundblad and Sugarman are sala ried fellow clerks with Charles Leslie in the county judge's office, and have shared with him In the graft by which estates In ! Probate have ben despoiled of fees for tacking up paper notices, swearing ap. pralsers and so forth. As election officers they expect to draw not only two salaries from the rounty for the tame time, but also to be In Inside position to help Let He's candidacy for county Judge, with a view to keeping themselves In office and perpetuating tht graft they have all been enjoying.

Chicago, ow EMes hu iuMrt SinuNUhH The celebrated Dr. Abernethy of London was firmly of the opinion that disorders of the stomach were the most prolific source of human ailment in general. A recent medical writer sayi every feeling, emotion and affection reports at the stomach (Ui rough the svstem of nrrvei) and the stomach it afrected ac.cordinely. It it the vital renter of the body He eontinties, "so we may be raid to lire bv (and he might well have Raid throve S) trie stomach." He goes on to (how that the stomach is the vital center of the body. He tayl "the function of di gestion in Its several stages is to pre pare tha food in forma which are tuita able to be added to the structure," meaning tha structure of our bodies. He continues, "every physical action from simple breathing, thinking and circulating of the blood to the most active bodily exertion wears out pof tions of the structure (of our bodies) and they become dead and so require to be taken away speedily. Much of the food which we take, and especially when unwholesome or in excess, adds to the waste material, and when it has undergone chemical changes it is still more mischievous." Then he goes on to the effect that the nervous system prompts every part of the circulating system. He says "it gives its message every moment to the inflnat-e number of glands and follicles to unload them selves of waste material so that the current of blood may carry it away." " When these two processes of nutri tion and excretion are thus carried on with equal assiduity we are in health, . but when this equilibrium does nnt exist there comes disorder and disease. The common form of such derange ment is indigestion or dyspepsia. The function of nutrition is interrupted and all tke operation which depend upon it go wrong. Under these condi tions it has a war of appearing in other types of disorder. 'Many of these often mislead physicians. Other parts of the organism are likely to be in volved, and we may find consumption, kidney complaint, hepatic (liver) dis orders, hvsteria and even mental alienation (derangement!." He says "it may be observed that deranged 'persons have a woe-be-gone expres sion, offensive breath, irregular action of the bowels, hallucinations and other like conditions of dyspepsia." The foregoing is no doubt a rational view of the sad havoc worked in the human system by indigestion and dys pepsia, torpid liver and kindred de rangements, which are generally asso ciated with or followed Dy many other diseases of diverse appearance, but all depending upon the weaK ani ats ordertd stomach. Cure the 'tomach weakness ndyoa curt !' Jess dis eases and t ;angements.
