"The trouble la not at the mlnps." said one d.al.T last night, "but with the rail road a. ' Orders for coal were plated early enough and reports from the mines are to the etreet that cars for the hauling of r-nal cannot be secured." Another dealer said there was an ahundaBne of roal In transit but the rail roads had been crowded so In moving crops and live stork that ears laden with coal were shoved off on sidings to wait until', the big rush Is over. While the crowdd condition of the yards In flouth. Omaha has been relieved to some extent, there still remains on tracks in the vicinity of this city a large number of his of coal and merchandise which Is bndly wanted st this time. Local dealers are hopeful the cold weather will hold off for a couple of weeks yet In order to give the railroads a, chance to get the coat now In transit to Its destination. Complaints are made to the railroad offices every day about the rapidly growing scarcity of coal and promises are freely made to rush ship ments. Ho far the packers have plenty of steam coaL in sight with several days' supply on track In the yards, which Is being held ' in reserve. Orders Construction Paahed. Ilcfore leaving for the west Oeneral Man ager Moliler of the Union Pacific ordered Acting Engineer Huntley to puHh the con trucllon of (he viaduct across the tracks at U, street. Surveyors started to work u gain on this bridge yesterday, but were stopped by the rain. It Is the Intention of l V, m t'nfnn T r 1 M r t rt hav this hrlriirp opened for travel Just as soon as possible next year. As for the building of a viaduct 'tcross the tracks at F street, Mr. Mohler stated to Councilman Adklns a day or two ago that this bridge would be built Just as soon as he company got Its tracks In the northern portion of the city straightened out. Mr. Adklns Infers that work on the F street viaduct Is to be started early In the xprlng. Imposes Heavy Flats. Act ins' I'ollce Judge McKay Is certainly proving himself a. terror . to evil doers. In the nine days he has been on tho bench he has Imposed fines amounting to 1209 and i he best of It Is he has collected the money. Judge McKay Is particularly hard on row lies and those who create disturbances. It lakes a pretty good talk to get away from a fine or Jail sentence when ar ittlKiird.lt! police xourt . these days. The police r-re, pleased at the assistance Judge McKay Is giving them in maintaining nrdef' In the city. " Cairh Basins Need tleanlsg. Quite a . number of catch basins In the icntral portion of the city Is In need of -leaning or flushing. During the heavy rain Tl utsday "water ran down N street with oinlderahle velocity. The catch basins at Twentv-alxth and N streets did not carry iff the' water fast enough and for several hour 41teewa a miniature lake at this point. Other catch basins were In a similar I'unditloa and showed that a good flushing is n1'''1 fcfp.i"p ,ne weather becomes too cold.' Kaln Utops''ork. Thursday's heavy rain put a stop to out nf door work. It was with a great deal of regret the contractors on the Twenty fourth street paving laid the men off for the day. as the work Is progressing so nicely. Kvery day counts now and an pffort Is being mnde .to get Twenty-fourth Mireet paved on the east side from A to O treets brfore cold weather. Workmen em ployed on the I'nlon PacMc depots were compelled to quit early In the day and i-ven the street force was given a holiday. All of the unpaved streets are again in iwd condition on account of mud, but no bad washouts were reported. On account of the rain considerable of the work Just completed by te city road machine will have to be done over again. Poll Officials Disappointed. Considerable disappointment at the out come of the William Connors shooting case In shown' by the police department. In August, !-, Connors became engaged In :i rotvln 'the. Third ward and shot George Jnhnn, i - policeman.-, and injured a woman. Notlowr ago Connors was located til .Chicago 'and brought back. Rsfore nccuVing. requisition papers Chief Briggs had Johnson sign an affidavit that Connors was ttie hian that shot hint. When the case came to trial Wednesday Johnson declined to (wear that Connors shot him and sp the case was dismissed. The city is out'. something over tluo in bringing Con--uurs, hack and there seems to be no way 'f recovering this amount from Johnson. Market Thanksalvlaa.

The woes of the Inebriates were more in evidence last night than for some time. Among about twenty cases of arrest for drunkenness nearly half had the mark of recent misfortune stamped on their woe ful countenances. Blood flowed freely in every quarter of the city Jail. One man had fallen into an elevator shaft and bruised himself and turned his ankle. An other had his face peeled in every direction, with his flattened nose for a center. One who hose the pious-sounding name of John Wesley, from Esgle. Neb., was thrown out of a saloon at Ninth and Douglas streets, where he managed to sit down on the curb stone with such precisions as to nearly un couple his dorsal vertebrae. As It was he said his back wss about three inches too short. He was carried to Us rell. He said they had dopen him "down the line" and had taken $."0 of his money. "Never mind." he said; "I'll soon get It back. I'm going to get 1, Roll out of this town for hurting my bark." Kugene Plckard of Alliance, in his wan derings wallowed Into the mud on the brink of the Brandcls excavation between Sixteenth and Seventeenth on Douglas. There he got stuck like a venturesome fly in a plate of molasses and could not extri cate himself. When he was found by the officers he was half burled, within a foot of the brink, with a fall of twenty to thirty feet Imminent. John Baker ran amuck In the 8tars and Stripes saloon, 1302 Douglas. It appears that he had been asleep and was taken with ajreniy of anger when he was roused up. He slezed a chair and literally cleaned out the place. He broke four chairs In succession trying to knock the bartender out of a corner, and Anally the latter had to fly for his life, and saved It. In all prob ability, by diving out through the glass of the back door. Baker then is said to have paraded the street with a chair leg in each hand until the police patrol became too many for him. He was charged with being drunk and disorderly. The most serious of all was the Injuries that Tom Baty received at Sixteenth and Davenport. This occurred at 6:46 p. m. When he reached the curb at Sixteenth he fell over backwards, striking with great force on the back of his head. Blood flowed In streams from his nose, mouth and ears. There was a dent In the back of his head and later It appeared likely there was a fracture of the skull. Police Surgeon Lang don attended him at the city Jail, where It took the combined efforts of the doctor and two officers at times to control the man's aimless struggles. He was partly conscious for a few moments at a time and then he aimed vicious blows at the attendants. Dr. Arnold came to help on the case and Baty was ordered to the Clarkson at 7:40. ' It was the opinion that the man was in a very serious condition. The hospital phy slclan said there was no fracture, but that the man was seriously Injured. Another . accident was the Injuries re ceived by K. W. Tygh, 2375 Walnut street. As he was driving home at 8:30 o'clock last night, going west on the north side of Leavenworth, at the Junction of Georgia venue he suddenly pulled over to the south side of the street, or attempted to do so, when-he was struck by a westbound Hans. com park car. His buggy was demolished and he was thrown to the pavement and bruised and scratched about the face. The horse ran away and was later caught and taken to A. 8tuben's livery barn. The po lice patrol and surgeons took the injured man to his home In Sheeley, where he was left In the care of the family physician, Dr. Clark. It Is not believed his Injuries are any more than superficial. FOSTER ON JXJRA SESSION Donalae Member Thinks Leglslatare Onght to Be Convened This Winter. Touching the proposed extra session of the state legislature. Dr. H. A. Foster, one of the house members from Douglas county, said: "In regard to an extra session, as out lined In The Ilec, I think it should be called. The revenue from the investment of state school funds in better paying se curities alone would. mean more than five times the cimt of I he ai-ualon 'i'h i.. of the number of supreme Judges is an absolute necessity, along with an increase of salaries of stale officers and other changes, too numerous to mention, made necessary by the fact the state has out grown its present constitution, which was made to cover entirely different conditions than now prevail. "The legislature is composed of honorable men. who are anxious to do the will of the people when they can be assured what that Is. I certainly am in favor of an extra session. "I doubt very seriously, however. If the present members of the legislature will vote to pass any rate legislation. I tried very hard In the last session to pass a commodity rate bill, but could not. and I do not think the members have sluce changed their minds on the subject." !BIG JEWISH CELEBRATION Kserrlses Lasting Fonr Days to Com. wemorate First Landing? of Hebrew Immigrants. Jewish churches and sll other Jewish urbanisations of the city will hold four days' exercises, tieginnlng this evening. In celebration of the first settlement of Jewish immigrants In America.

Sunday morn ing a literary and musical program for Sunday school children will be given at Tempi Israel and patrlotle addresses will be delivered by the ministers. Sunday evening a musical and literary program, the details of which arc yet to be an nounced, will be given for all the Jewish people of the city. The festival will end Monday evening with a grand ball, under the auspices of the Sisterhood of Temple Israel, at Metropolitan hall. The event to be celebrated la the arrival at New Amsterdam in 16."4 of twenty-thrse Jtslvh immigrants. WOMAI 11 CLUB AXD CHARITY The Young Women's Chrlstlsn associa tion will k"ep house Thanksgiving day from t to in p. ni. Supper will be served at o'clock. The evening's entertainment has Iwvn planned by the members of the gymnasium classes and milt consist of games, music and readings. All young women are Invited to attend, whether members or not; but. In order that the committee may make definite arrange ments, those expecting to attend are ssked to lesve their names at the oflVe or with some of Ihe secretaries. Arrangements have been completed to open a dressmaking class at the association the first of January. The term will ex tend over ten weeks and will Include plain sewing, cutting from pattern and drafting patterns. Inquire at the office for further particulars. Mrs. Harriet S. MacMurphy s suggestion that the Omaha women volunteer their services as deputy milk Inspectors has met with favor among many of the club women, and it Is probable that the plan will come up for further consideration at the next meeting of the household eco nomics deportment of the Women's club, next Fridsy morning. The National Child I-abor committee has recently Issued In bulletin form the sd dresses delivered at the first annual meet ing of the committee held at New York lsst February, and reprinted from the proceedings as published by the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Most of these are for free distribution and club women may get them by applying to the secretary, Samuel McOine Llndssy. 125 Kast Twenty-second street, New York City. Among those especially recommended for use by the clubs are: "The School as a Force Arraved Against Child Labor." by James Klrkland, chancellor of Vanderbilt university; "Child Iibor From the Em ployer's Tolnt of View," by Emil O. Hlrsch of Chicago university: "Child Labor Legislation, a Requisite for Indus trial Efficiency," by Jane Addams; "Child Labor In the I'nlted States." by Felix Adler; 'The Work of the General Feder ation of Women's Clubs Against Child Labor," by Mrs. A. O. Granger. Other pamphlets deal with child labor legislation and methods of enforcement In different sections of the United Stales. All were written by experts and are valuable to those Interested In the subject. The editor of the Household department of the New York Post makes the follow Ing comment on the alleged inexpensive Christmas gift, that it worthy of the con slderatlon of many women: At this season of the year the Christmas magasuies are coming out wltn the annual articla on InexDenslve sifts for loved ones. If you have no money for gifts you are advised to make a rich English plum pud ding, a fruit cake, handsomely Iced, or a dozen small nut cakes, and send them In lieu of other offerings. Among other gifts which ere supposed to cost nothing, little decorated boxes filled with nut meats, Jars of preserves, glasses of Jelly, Jardinieres rilled with blossoming plants, and Inverted glass bowls under wnicn rerns are growing, r mentioned This is trulv feminine econ omy, and suggests a household where the husband Is a lavish provider of everything except money. Doubtless there are a few women who are so spiritless as to suDnm to such a state of affairs, but surely in ttiia net mi led ffeneratlon the number cannot be o great as to constitute a pub lic. If moneyless wives ao exist as a cm, the magazines would be better occupied In n.,kiiiii,.ir articles nhnwlni their huabanda the false economy they practice. The price of a fruit cake, "richly Iced." would buy a good book, a pair of gloves, several handkerchiefs, or any number of similar Christmas presents, besides saving the time spent In baking the cake. Money is really one of 'the cheapest commodities in the world compared with health, strength, and happiness. The Chicago Woman's club Is rothtng If not ambitious. Its latest project is the es tablishment of a theater at which only the classic drama shall be presented, the gen eral aim being an elevation of the popular taste In dramatic art. The Chicago Trib une gives some space to the plan, quoting Mrs. Georgo Benedict Carpenter, president of the club, who, in her annual address some time ago advised the establishment of an independent theater as a fitting work for the largest .and most progressive club In the middle west. A number . of Chicago university students became Interested and a joint committee representing the club and the university conferred with outside Interests and definite plans resulted. At a meeting of the club last week It was an nounced that between 140,000 and 150,00 has been raised toward the new home for the club, another of Us enterprises. The site for the building Is now under considers t i. Besides the Chicago Woman's club t..e Teachers' Federation, the Catholic and possibly the Daughters of the American Revolution, besides other women's organ Isations, will have quarters In the building The Wednesday club of St. Louis, the largest and most Influential club of Mis sourl, at a recent meeting considered plan for using the public schools as com munlty centers in the evenings where par entr and children might meet for study and recreation. At present such a use o the school buildings is prohibited by the state law, but the women having been In fluentlal in bringing about other reforms, are hopeful of accomplishing this. too. public sentiment can be educated, and they believe it can. IQWA I MAN HOLDUP VICTIM Led Into Linely Place and Relieved f Money, Match and Ovcrcont. John I.utlia of Foil Dodge, Ta.. was robbed this morning about l.ju o'clock at Seventh and Jones streets, just across the tracks from the Nebraska Coal company's yards.
