Omaha Grain Dealers Acquire Berenty-Fire
Bit; Elevator in South Platte.
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.

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."

Announcements of the Theaters.
One of the' great features of the Thomas
J. Dixon, jr., play, "Tho Clunsman," which
comes to the Boyd for four nights, opening
on Sunday evening. Is the scenic Investi-
I Hire. 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. Indications
nrc that "The Clansman" will be seen by
some thousands of Omaha people during its
four nights' stay at the Boyd. It will be
offered on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings and at a matinee on
Wednesday.
Interest Is deep In the coming engage
ment of Miss Grace George, who will be
seen at the Boyd on Thursday afternoon
and evening of next week. Miss George la
playing the role of Kitty In "The Marriage
of William Ashe." based on Mrs. Ward's
powerful novel, and Is being greeted every
where with large audiences and receiving
great praise for her work.
