ALL BUT ONE LOCATED IN NEBRASKA Br the Ural Ten Million Bushels of Grain Mill Be Added to Volume of Omaha's Market. One of the largest elevator deal ever transacted In the west was consummated In Omaha Friday by the- Vpdlke Oraln company, which housht the Ferguson line of elevators on the Burlington: In the South Platte country, seventy-five In number, from W. H. Ferguson of Lincoln. These elevators are situated In Nebraska, except one at Fort Morgan, Colo., and will add tremendously to Uie business of the Omaha Oraln exchange, ps the TTpdlke company la strictly an Omaha concern with head offices in Omaha. The 1'pdike company Increased Its capi tal stock January 1 to Il,WW,0tW. with a view of acquiring additional elevators In Nebraska, and hns been negotiating for some time with Mr. .Ferguson, who will retire from ( business. . The Updike com pany liasi been broadening out since- the flist of Ihe year and has outgrown Its present quarters, so that on March 1 it will move Into the first floor of The Bee building and occupy the offices now used aa the business office of The Bee. J. A. Kuhn, formerly assistant genera, freight and passenger agent of the Northwestern, with Jurisdiction over the lines west of the Missouri river, has Joined the 1'pdike Oraln company,- giving that company an expe rienced grain rate and railroad man. Sn-ella Local Market. Much of the grain of the South Platte country has gone to Kansas City, but with the acquisition of this strong line of ele vators by the Updike company, which has Its own big terminal elevators in Omaha, It Is estimated that at least 10,000,000 bush els of grain will be added to the receipts of the Omaha Grain exchange. The new elevators are located on the Burlington road around McCook, Hastings. York and Fairmont and reaching ns far as the Colo rado line. The deal puts the Updike com pany In position to handle grain on a very close margin. The dealings of the Up' dike company have been confined heretofore principally to the lines of the Northwestern road and the company owns elevators on that road aa far west us Norfolk and as far north aa Bonesteel. The new elevators will make a total of 107 elevators which the Updike company owns, all of which are in Nebraska except five. but Blarkghost got on the war path under the stimulus of the firewater and pro ceeded to do up one William Elk. tribes man, and at the finish. Elk was minus a finger and It ha not yet been definitely determined whether Blackghost swallowed It or not The rough-house occurred about five miles east of Verdiil. BURKETT, BABY OF SENATE Nebraska's J on lor Senator Displaces Rererldae aa Youngrat Mem ber of I nper House. "Senatorial Baby' la the latest nickname which Washington ha attached to Elmer J. Burkett, Nebraska' Junior senator. In n article on gossip of Washington peopio Human Life devote some attention to Mr. Burkett. including hlmlln the list of per sona about whom It talks In a recent num ber, the others In the list being Mrs. Orover Cleveland, Miss Roosevelt, Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartorls, three White House brides. Congressman Longworth, Baron and Baroness von Sternberg. German am bassador and wife and Von Scheller of the German embassy. This Is Its reference to Burkett, made by the "social secretary" in the course of a recitation about a dinner: Just when the first sprlghtllness of tho guests at table had subsided and the Inev itable nail which threatens most dinners at some stage seemed settling around the board. I brought up my town crier. "Has anyone seen the new senatorial bahv?" 1 asked. "Baby?" echoed almost the entire table In a breath, and every eye was lifted ques tionlngly. "Whv. yes." said I: "the town rrler an nounces that in this Fifty-ninth congress the senate has a baby member whose pic ture Is being shown In all the newspapers and whose record run as follows." and I began to read: "'A plowboy at 1; a stu dent at college at 17; a eraduate at Jf): teacher, lawver and member of the house at : a United States senator at 37.' " ' Sounds like Solomon Orundy." said Mi s. Bvrd. "And who may this town crier be?" she asked, mvstifled. for she had not livej long enough In Washington to know how the town delights in humorous squibs. "Oh. I know who the baby is." put In n prominent member of the house who was present, "It's Klmer Burkett of Nebraska. He has lust gone to the emite nml no uvn ever walked those 700 and more fct that lie between the house and the senHtc chamber more proudly than Burkett. . He will ouiU put Beveildge's nose out of joint, for B-v-eridge has been the youngnler of the senate, hut he'll have to Join the 'oldsters' now. Burkett has a great reputation for doing things, and If he will mind the senate de cree that no new man shall open h's talk box for one year he will get- on and suc ceed, for he Is an able man." i n oi iv uiivn mi; lvju ujJiiiift uivimu For MenThe New Hats--Spring 1906 I DOCTORS FOR GVJEftj I sfi Announcements of the Theaters.

Pii-tures true to life In the old south i arc used for the purpose of embellishing this tale of the reconstruction days. The fact that the play is written by ono who ex : peiicnced the events touched upon, and who Is thoroughly In earnest In treating the sub 1 Jf ct, lends peculiar Interest to Its produc tion, and the storm of discussion that has followed Its presentation Wherever It has been seen attests the vigor with which Mr. Dixon has treated tho subject.
