and surest remedy for Sore Throat, Cold in Chest,
Cold in the Head, Quinsy, Tonsilitis, and in cases of
Asthma, Bronchitis and La Grippe it frequently gives
relief when nothing else will. The treatment is easy
to follow. No danger of any kind accompanies its use
when applied as directed. All throat and chest troubles
are to be feared if allowed to continue. Treatment
with Omega Oil should begin at the very first symp
tom. All druggists sell it.
Omega Oil is an extraordinary and unusual liniment.
It stops all sorts of pains that can be reached by ex
ternal treatment. In stubborn caszs like Rheumitism,
Lumbago, Sciatica and Neuralgia it has often effected

Bruises and Strains there is nothing else so good. .For
Tired, Aching Feet, for Inflammation and Swellinjs,
for the dozen or more common aches and pains of the
family it is well worth trying. Get a 10c bottle and

SEW POSITION FOR M'KEfiN
Management of Motor Car Shopi Will Be
Given to Him.
WILL RESIGN WITH UNION PACIFIC
Who Hli iiiivrPMor Will Be Is fiot
Kuwii, bat Joe Huberts
of Kmi tit)- Is
Mentioned.
The Vnlon Pacific, it Is now admitted,
will have a new superintendent of motive
power and machinery, W. It. McKecn, jr.,
present incumbent of that important posi
tion and Inventor of the motor car which be
came a startling success from the very first
and promises so much toward the revolution
ising of railroad trunHportation, will be
head of the motor car shops whenever and
wherever they are built. Thta much Is
generally conceded. 4
When Mr. McKeen will drop hla presunt
work, who his successor will be, where
the new shops will be located these are
Mutations yet unsettled so far aa publicly
known.
Omaha, us is will known, is making a
systematic effort to secure the shops. A
committee embracing some of the most
prominent business men of the city, has
been appointed to prevail upon E. 11. Har
rinian to locate the shops in this city. The
committee has held a conference or two
with General Manager Mohler of the Union
Pacific, who was urged to be a member
of the committee, but declined for dis
cretionary reasons. Mr. Mohler was able
to inform the committee that fifty acres
of ground would be required as a site for
the new shops. And so. Impressed with
I an idea of the immensity of the new nn
' terprlse, the committee is proceeding with
its mission. It ia determined that even
this prerequisite shall not prevent Omaha
from securing this valuable acquisition to
Itn industrial and commercial prestige.
Under Separate Company.
These shops, as Mr. Mohler has stated,
will not be constructed nor operated as a
Union Pacific affair, but a separate com
pany will be formed for the purpose, al
though, in fact, the ownership will Le
vested in Mr. Harrlman, controller of the
Union Pacific.
Mr. Harrlman became enthusiastic- over
the first car Mr. McKeen produced and
also became tealoua over Mr. McKeen and
he ia determined, it is understood, that
none but Mr. McKeen shall have direction
of this mammoth institution. This will
be a substantial tribute and promotion for
Mr. McKeen, though his scope of authority
now extends over the large Union . Pacific
shops in Omaha and all along the system.
Ha came here and succeeded Mr. lllgglns
when the latter went to Washington D. C,
to assume a similar position with the
Southern railway. McKeen, cam from
Cheyenne in 19US.
Joe Roberts, head of the Union Pacific
shops at Kansas City, is mentioned aa
possibly Mr. McKeen's successor, though
it would not surprise Omaha men at the
Bhopa if a dark horse, an outsider, was put
In.

The Illinois Central is one of the few
roads In the country which operates its
own refrigerator cars and is not dependent
upon any of the private car lines. By the
end of the month the company will have
8,000 cars of its own in service and the bus
iness of these cars is In four directions

Export nates Go Up.
Export rates on flour from Missouri river
points took a soar upward Saturday of
from S to 5 cents, varying according to the
variance In ocean rates. The rate la now
made a combination of the lowest locals
via the gulf or Atlantic seaboard. Large
quantities of oats are also being hauled
out of Nebraska by the railroads, nearly
all being destined tp the southeastern sec
tion of the United States, where large quan
tities are consumed. They are bought by
the larger elevators at Cairo, Memphis,
Nashville and other points, and from there
distributed to the consumers.
Dsnlop Goes to Lincoln.
The report has got out that Frank Dun-

Western for Nebraska, part of Colorado
and the Black Hills, is to leave the service
of that company and accept one with the
Great Northern when that road opens
offices at Lincoln In connection with the
Ashland cut-off within a short time. Mr.
Dunlop admits that he is making arrange
ments to transfer his headquarters to Lin
coln, but will say nothing definite regard
ing his going to the Great Northern. Rail
road men extremely doubt that he will
leave the Great Western even if he goes
to Lincoln.
Santa I'e Kills Time.
In the mad race for the vast continental
business the Santa Fe has stepped in with
great Improvements and attempts to
shorten the line and time to the coast. A
nlnety-flve-mlle cut-off has Just been com
pleted from Texico west. ThlB necessitated
the construction of a bridge arross the
Pecos river, which is intended to withstand
the heaviest flood which can possibly come
down that waterway. Additional roads to
the number of 125 miles are to be con
structed which will shorten the route to
the Pacific coast, avoiding the Raton and
Glorietta mountains in New Mexico and
reducing the passenger time between Chi
cago and San Francisco from eight to fif

NATIONAL SOUL CAMPAIGN
Simultaneous L'eetings Begin Three Wieki
from Today in Preeby erisn Churches.
MOVEMENT PLANNED FOR ENTIRE UNION
For Two Weeks and Possibly More
Persistent Crusade (or Christ
and the Church Will
Be Waged.
Sunday, February 26, all the Presby
terlun churches of Omaha will hold ser
vices, which will be a part of a simul
taneous campaign of religion inaugurated
by every Presbyterian church throughout
the country. It is planned to be one of
the most comprehensive movements ever
attempted in the religious world by any
denomination. It will be carried on for
at least two weeks and possibly longer.
The primary purpose of the campaign Is
to arouse and quicken the life of the
members of the churches and Increase the
church roll by bringing thousands outsido
into the folds.
This gigantic movement was originated
by the Kvangellcal committee of the Gen
eral Assembly of the Presbyterian church
in the United States, of which John II.
Converse of Philadelphia, who recently
gave on endowment of tnt.i.OW to the Omaha
Presbyterian Theological seminary, is
chairman and whose membership com
prises only representative ministers of the
dt nomination in all parts of the country.
This committee InHlsts that In these meet
ings, when converts evince a desire to
unito with some other evangelical church
than the Presbyterian they shall receive
the same warm reception and encourage
ment as If uniting with the Presbyterians,
the prime object being to secure conver
sions, the matter of denominatlonallntn
being of secondary considerstton.
Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, D. D., secre
tary of the committee, aided by Rev.
Farley K. Zartman, assistant secretary
and treasurer, formulated the specific
plans upon which the simultaneous meet
ings are to be held.
Planned on Hrosil liases.
The campaign is planned on a broad
busis. It Is arranged that the pastors may
do their own preaching or they may call
to their assistance the brethren of their
own or "other denomination possessed of
evangelistic gift, or they may secure the
services of trained evangelists If such
workers are available. From the head
quarters of the commit!? In !he Preabj
teriun building. 158 Fifth avenue. New
York City, a letter, over the signature
of the chairman of the committee, has been
sent to every Presbyterian minister in the
country, detailing the plan and purpose of
the simultaneous campaign, which Is in
tended to have a wide Influence.
I! Is understood some time during the
meetings a canvass will be made of the
community to find out the number of
persons living In the city or' town be
longing to the denomination hut not con
nected with the local church, or It may
be iosslble in the public services of the
church to make a uVliiiiu- appeal to all
such through Hie use of a special card
which has been prepared for distribution,
and which contains the name and address
of the person and the church preferred.
Kinging is to Ik- made a special feature
of the campaign and luige chorus choirs
under efficient leaders will be organised.
Special meetings will be arranged for
non-church members, for men only, for
women only, for young pt-uple, for the
Sunday school, meetings in factories at
the noon hour and in other places. Spe
cial emphasis will be laid upon personal
work. Workers will be stationed through
out the church and pastor and people will
Join in efforts to reach all Inquirers. Tha
observance of "decision day" in the Sun
day schools will be made a feature of the
simultaneous campaign.

Omaha Members of T. P. A. Plan
Bis Doings for the State
Delegates.
At the membership meeting last night
of Post A of the Travelers Protective as
sociation, called to decide upon the form
of entertainment for the delegates to, the
state convention of the order, which meets
in Omaha April 20 and 21, a large and en
thuHiastlc number was present. Several
plans of entertainment, such as balls and
banquets, were discussed, but the plan
finally adopted was for a supper Friday
night, followed by a theater party and a
business meeting Saturday morning.
If. G. I loci was appointed general chair

was subdivided Into the following commit
tees: Hall and hotel. W. A. Green, E. II.

with honors about even to date, but under
the conditions of the race. Post A is also
ran. The latter was to get 200 new mem- ;
bers while the state was getting luo, and
' at present the state has S4 to 90 for Post

been drinking beer in a purty of colored
men mid women upstairs at 3B North

Brown had refused to buy another can of
beer Just before the saloons closed at mid

between him and the murderer, whom
Brown had brought to the house at 11
o'clock, and who was a stranger to the
others present. The two men fell or tum

tell that he had been stabbed. He died
