George H. Wllklna, tha new noma show
manager, wit In tha city Thursday and
Friday meeting with the director of tha
Horse Show association and preparing tha
prise Hat for this fall. Mr. Wilklni wti
moat enthusiastic over the proapecta for
thla fall and said:
"There I no reason why Omaha could
hot put on as good a show as any other
town of twice Ita alae. because It haa more
high claaa horeea that can be seen In an
evening's drive on the boulevard than can
be aeea In the same time at Kansas City
or Bt. Louis. The reputation of W. H
MrCord has gone far beyond the conflnes
if Omaha, and all horse ahowa are eager
that he should come with hla string, Chi
cago being after him thla early In the
game. He haa a new pair of heavy har
neas horaea that seem Impossible to beat,
even If one had the choice of the eastern
show stables. He will give the cracks
run for their money.
"Mr. Peck's saddle horae representa a
very good type and haa ahown much Im
provement since Mr. Peck acquired It. The
directors tell me that many new stableg
have been added since last year In spite
tt the Increase of the number of auto
rroblles. Mr. Kenyon haa bought tha
Enrtlett pair which were wlnnera In Chi
cago. "There Is a strong possibility of F. K.
Bull of Racine showing h!s stable at
Omaha. He has one of the most complete
show stable In existence. W. Vernon
Booth of lake Forest with his atrlng of
hunters, jumpera and polo ponies, aa Well
sa Chnmbers I,. Pelrce of Chicago with
Ms famous high school horse. Artist King,
hove signified their Intention of coming to
the Omaha show.
Omaha Show Well Established.
"Omalia'a reputation in the horse show
line has become worldwide In the two years
that shows have been given, no first show
ever being a greater aucceaa. All we have
to do to make this ahow the aucceaa It
deserves will lie to pull together. With '
the added attractions which tha new prise
list will bring out the attendance of vlalt
ora from the outside should be enormous.
"My efforts from now until I return In
August will be to work for entries, for
In the large entry Hat Ilea the success of
the ahow. With plenty of the high grade
stables tha show will be worth the money
and there will be no trouble about the at
tendance. "Max Orthweln of St. Iula Is president
of tha Western Horse 8liow circuit, and I
am secretary, the towns of the circuit being
I-oulsvllle, St. Liouls, Kansas City, Omaha
and 8t. Paul. This circuit prevents the
conflicting of datea and any new town will
have to do something heroic to attract the
horsemen any of theae shows are now at
tracting. With the circuit aa now eatab
llahed the r ircess of the Omaha ahow Is
assured for tha horae men will not care to
lay off the week between Kanaaa City and
Chicago and will ccma here."
Eleven Thonsand la Premiums.
The amount of premium money offered
at tha horse ahow thla fall la 111,279. There
will be twenty-two divisions of horses,
seventy-ona classes In all. There will ba
two championship harness classes. Tha
divisions all the way through will ba di
vided In two, for 15.2 and over and under.
Tha hunt teama and Jumpers will all ba
treated the same aa they were last year.
A' class for cobs has been added, a horse
between fourteen and fifteen hands up to
carrying ISO pounds. The harness ponies
and saddla ponies will have five classes,
four of which are devoted to local entries,

Twenty-two heavy harness classes are on
the list, seven of which are' local.
The davoteea of the speedway and road
ster classea will be recognised as usual.
Six roadster classes, one local and Ave
open, are on tha list. A departure from
laat year'a list is tha addition of two con
sols t Ion classes for honors, which have
been exhibited and have not won first. Two
potato racea will be run, one Tuesday night
and one Thursday night. These were run
two years ago but were cut out last year,
Two feature classea will be on tha pro
gram thla year, $600 for each class. One
will be for horse any else or sex to be
shown to gig, the horse to be Judged for Its
adaptability as a heavy harness horse,
style, action, pace, conformation and man
ners especially considered. The other Is a
pair of horses any srxe or sex, the horses
to be judged for their, adaptability as
heavy harness horses, style, action, pace,
conformation, and manners especially con
sidered. To be shown before deml-mall,
spider or stanhope phaeton.
These classes will attract the big owners
of the country and these have already been
assured. The purse In Itself la big enough
to be attractive to call oat the best In the
country. Mr. Wllklns haa word already
from Crow A Murray and Pepper, the lead
era here last year, and some of the leading
Kansas City horsemen. Many other prom
ises are out which the management Is re
lying upon, but the names ara withheld

Borden to Jndge.
Spencer Borden of Fall Hlver. Mass.,
who will be Judge, Is ranked among the
foremost Judges of saddle and harness
classes In the United States, his experience
extending over twenty-five years of Judging
In the most Important shows In the country,
such as Madlaon Square, Philadelphia,
Louisville and Boston. Mr. Kuykendall
and F. T. Haskell of Chicago haa also
given promise of their presence.
One of the new rulea will protect the
patrons against a lot of dogs taking the
money, for the rule provides that nothing
but high class animals shall be exhibited,
tha prise to be withheld at the discretion
of the Judges.
In case the saddle, hunter and Jumper
Classea are too large, elimination trials will
be held In the mornings. Protests will be
decided aa uaual. Changing of ahoea to
permit horse in two claaaes will not be
permitted under the rulea, this year.

Q. W. Carr.
P. B. Eustls, passenger trafflo manager of
the Burlington road was born and reared
In Philadelphia. He is not particularly
proud of the fact except for tha delightful
recollections of the little things In his boy
hood days there.
"I think there are always one or two in
cldenta or characters sssoclated with boy
hood that one remembers better than
others," he said. 'These will sometimes
atick to a person through life and he will
remember them when he will forget Inter
mediate happenings and persons. Back in
Philadelphia, when I Was a boy, there was
a character, not a type, named Jack Fla
herty. Coming to the United 8tates In hla
youth, he never quite loat the delightful
Irish brogue. Flnherty sold oysters from
a wagon in Philadelphia. He started in
the business when he first landed and he
la still selling oysters from a wagon. His
custom was to drive through a street sell
ing to housewives. At the corner he would
stand half an hour or so and then meander
up to the next corner. Everybody knew
him his optimistic disposition and the high
quality of his oysters, which he always
maintained. Every child was his favorite
and he was the favorite of all the children.
"Some time ago, when I waa in Philadel
phia on business, I sauntered up our old
street, with no particular object hut to look
at the familiar spots. As t approached our
old corner 1 saw an oyster wagnh. Going
closer, who did 1 recognise but en old
friend, Jack Flaherty, tt was the first
time I ha4 sesa hint slaee ehitdhwxl. I
am over six feet tall, but was considerably
under that mark when Jack sold my mother
oysters, so I had no fear of being recog
nized. I went to the wagon, looked at
Jack and then at hla oysters.
" 'How are your oysters this morning, Mr,
Flaherty?' I asked.
" 'Fine and fresh,' he answered.
"Now that waa the question and answer
I had heard a thousand times' between
Jack and my mother.
" 'Well, how am I to know they're line
unleaa I eat them?' I responded.
" 'Well, thero's some reason In that, some
reaaon In that,' he answered, without look'
Ing up from his work of opening the bl
valves.
"That was another question and answer
that usually pasaed between Flaherty and
my mother.
"I repeated a few more of the old ques
tions and Jack returned with the same old
anawers. I kept studying his face, but he
did not look up from his work, yet each of
his anawers was made more slowly than
the preceding one. and I could see he was
thinking, thinking hard, trying to locate me
after all those years.
" 'Well, 1 11 take half a dosefl,' I said at
length.
"Then Flaherty dropped his oyster open
ing auddenly and said:
" 'Percy, me boy, how are youT Little
Percy Eustls.'
"He was as pleased as a- boy with
present. Then Wo had ft tittle talk An Old
times. When I finished eating the Oysters
I passed a dollar over to pay for them.
" 'Never mind that, Percy; I'm more thn
that ahead of your mother,' he said, with
a smile."

We are EXCLUSIVE makers of the NEW TYPE of double vision
lens. The UNDISPUTED advantages of our lens over all others are:
1st. With our improved machinery we are enabled to make them at
nearly half the cost of other lenses of a similar kind.
2nd. No injury to the eye from constant wear.
3rd. Less cemented surface to fog.
4th. No danger of starting the cement when tightening the lens.
6th. Can be made in thinner lenses, consequently there is less reflec
tion and absorption of light.
6th. Much less expensive and accurately adaptable to individual re
quirements. .
Bear this in Mind: We are the only firm grinding "Sho-not" Invisi
ble as well as Eetfo-Toric deep curve lenses.
We furnish eyeglasses, if needed, $1.00 up.

"About SM rnonths after I received a let

"'My teor Trletrafn: 1 return herewith
the annual pas yon sent me a few months
ago. When 1 received It 1 thought tt we a
good thing and would save me lots of
money running up to the city, and It did
for awhile. Put these free ride, the saving
of the price of a ticket, have almost fulhed
me financially and phySloally. The fact
that I had art annual in my pocket haa
caused me to make fifty trips to the city I
would not have made if I had (o pay rny

that 1 had paid ho railroad far was SI- ,

I had saved my faJlroad fare. On return-

aaved tt or $3 in railroad fare I had spent
$15 or 20 In other ways, all baaed on the
theory that I was saving money on account (
of my pass. Now If I had had to pay my
fare I would not have made one-twentieth '
of the trips. As near aa I can figure It out
this annual pass has cost me la six nsontha
about $400, while if I had paid my firae and
made no unnecessary expenditures It would
have cost me ft little ever two for the same
number of trips. Much obliged, old man.

I answered his letter and told him I
wduld stand half his expenses in the city.
But it was no go. lit wai a reformed

"Three or four of us were sitting In the
smoking compartment of Ouf Ctnclnatf

senger agent of the Big Four road. "With
me waa C. C. Clarke, one of our traveling
passenger agents, and, aa we were not

"When he made known hla loss (to the

BRIDGE BUILDING IN AFRICA
lacldeats of tke Hasordoae Work of
f Spaaalac the Gorge of
the Bstaabesl.
The riveting up of the Zambesi bridge
proved to be a more formidable under
taking than had been anticipated. Several
ef the riveters we brought front England
were unable to stand the climate, and we
had to depend largely on the men In the
country. We found that an average day's
work in England and In Africa were two
very different things. Although we had
good hydraulic and pneumatic equipment,
the rate of progrees waa rather slow.
An Interesting Incident occurred during
the riveting. A leopard, which had pre
viously devastated the henroosts of every
one in our locality, besides taking sundry
dogs and cats, waa run over by an engine
one night. He had apparently been dai
sied by the headlight and had lain on the
track. He waa teen by the driver, who
pulled up. The skin waa found to be
scarcely damaged.
The deep pools among the islands In the
river were the haunt of numerous hip
popo'aml, which, althdugo, peaceable moat

became dangeroua. We were chased on
