heee were tht modest words of W. R.
McKeen, Jr., superintendent of motive
power and mifrhlnery of the Vnlon Pacific,
at motor ar No. I pulled Into Omaha after
a moat successful trip rrom Cohimhus, on
which an average of running time of nearly
fifty miles an hmir was made. This engine
waa flrsf made lo mn seventy, or seventy

It with trailer for bsggage and mall.
No. I Is surely a beauty and every part
of It waa ma d in tha Omaha ahopa of tha
Vnlon Pacific. Tha tpeed f tha car la en
tirely controlled ' by the', en nine whether
running at one or sixty milea an hour, up
hill or down. It waa designed by Mr. Mc
ifeen, who has been, working on these
motor cart for over a year and who la now
satisfied he has built a car which will
antwer all the' requirement! for suburhan
or branch line eervlce. On tha trip In from
Columbua Saturday no special effort was
made at faat running, tn effort being to
keep It exactly In the achedule of No. 1,
the fastest eantbound passenger train on
tha Union Pacific, and thla waa done.
Iae Pom Ate Speak
Tha Union Pacific ha spent large sums
of money m the construction of these cars,
and has tha other seven In operation, ex
cept one which was sold to an eastern road
ind la used by that road In regular ser
vice. Many experiments have been mad
along various lines and Mr. McKeen has
been working out tha steel car problem at
tha same time, ha baa been building these
motor cars, and they are built entirely of
ateel. Just enough wood la used to hold
the steel sheets In position, except tha floor.
and the remainder Is of steel.
Motor car No. I also made a trial trip
from Columbus to Omaha Saturday which
was very successful. This car Is different
from No. t In that It has a 100-horse power
engine, whereas No. has a 200-horse power
engine. : A new' trailer, also was taken to
Colombus for a tryout and this Is a gem t
mechanical Ingenuity. It Is built entirely
of steel with ball bearings and two men
could push It around. It Is Intended for
mall and baggage. Tha engine of No. I
Is operated by a double Ignition systm

available and either or both may be used.

to avoid a possible chance of breakdown
or failure; the Idea being to build the en
gine "fool-proof." The engine develops as
high as So-horse power and handles the
car with great ease.
Throttle Carola Car Speed.
A remarkable advantage In this engine
Is that the car speed Is almoet entirely
controlled by the throttle, the same a a
locomotive: even on grades the speed of
the car ran be varied from three to sev
enty miles an hour by means of throttle
and spark lever only, or it can be atarted
on what Is known as high speed- The en

j though It Ik preferable to use the gears In
puiiing me csr in motion, out siier onre
In motion the gears' are thrown out and
the speed of the csr entirely controlled by
the speed of the engfne. This makes the
operation of the car very simple and the
economy In the consumption of gasoline
and reduced duty on the transmission Is
such that the practicability ef these cars
for everyday heavy service Is certainly
demonstrated.
The ventilation Is obtained from the use
of sir Intake and the Cottier exhaust ven
tllatora.
The car weighs ol.OM pounds, but this
weight can easily be reduced to K.00Q
pounds In subsequent cars.
Many advantageous Innovations have been
made In No. 8 which are noticeable even
to the laymen. The circular windows give
a perfect panoramic view of the wbolo
country on both sides of the train. The
ata are of the latest design and most
comfortable. No vibration Is felt In the
car from tha engine and. the ventilation
system Is perfect. The car Is heated from
the exhaust without a cent's additional
expense. The smell of gasoline Is never
present In the car because of the precau
tionary arrangements made by Mr. Mo-
Keen.
With the car on the trial trip were Train
master Cary and Superintendent White'
ford of the Omaha shops and a party of
newspaper men. Mr. McKeen took no hand
In the running of the car on the trial trip,
but left It entirely to his lieutenants, and
they did their work well.
No. will be put In service between
Beatrice and Lincoln and Mr. McKeen will
await orders from Mr. Mohler and Mr.
Harriman before be starts the construction

d day or August, 190C
It falls to ths lot of few priests to have
their personal work specially praised by
the pope and to receive from tha holy
father his personal blessing and congratu
lation such as the above, which has come
to Father Patrick Judge of Sacred Heart
parish, in Omsha, This note was written
by the pope himself, and naturally le
treasured by Father Judge with the great
est degree of pride, though the father hesi
tated when asked that he give his permis
sion to the publication of the note and the
circumstances of Its receipt. His friends.
who know so well of nls untiring and faith
ful work, share his pride ln this great die
Unction which the hesd of ths Catholic
church has conferred upon him, and they,
with less cause for modesty than he, have
been, anxious that the father give his con
sent to the publicity of this honor.
Recently a personal friend of Father
Judge went abroad and on his Journey hs
visited Rome, being permitted to see the
pops. He hsd with him two photographs
of the Sacred Heart - school ln Omaha,
which Father Judge had been so vitally
Instrumental In building. The holy father
viewed the pictures with the utmost con
cern. One of the pictures shows a long
line of children stsndlng ln front of the
school, accompanied by Father Judge and
another priest. This was the source of
great pride to the pope, and he did not
hesitate to so express himself. He spoke
to Father Judge's friend In terms that
made Father Judge very proud and grate
ful when the friend Imparted the message
to him, but the pope did not merely ex
press himself In words. He took one of
the pictures, the one showing the children,
and across Its top, with his own pen,
wrote In Latin the Inscription above. Thla
picture, ' after It waa ascertained Fsther
Judge had It, the father allowed a reporter
for The Bee to see, and when asked for a
statement Father Judge merely said:
Father's Modeat Statement.
"The holy father vu kind enough to
say that he waa very much pleased with
my work, and In order to console and en
courage me he ssld he would send me his
autograph blessing. 80 he took this photo
of my junior school from the hands of the
ecclesiastic who presented It and ths other
one and sat down to his desk and wrote
the blessing as you see It and requested
that It be sent to me. Of course I am very
proud of It."
Father Judge has Just come out of a long
sick spell and Is not yet normally strong,
but this blessing from, the pope just at this
time has been the source of great comfort
to him. He will have the photo framed, as
the Inscription It bears is the highest
earthly tribute that could be pstd to the
life work of any priest. Those hosts of good
people who have sympathised with Father
Judge in the splendid work hs has been
carrying on and have aided, shsre with him
the supreme token that has come to him.

"The Education of Mr. Plpp," a visual
del'ght as developed by Chsrles Dana Gib
son, has been clothed with flesh and blood
and made Into a veritable fountain of fun
by Augustus Thomaa. The author didn't
bother himself a great deal about a plot
for the story; Just enough to string to
gether the characters suggested, by ths
artist, and around the framework thus
furnished has U raped a garb of the richest
humor. Mr. Pipp is a man of affairs, who
knows business and Is lost ln society. Mrs.

Pipp knows neither, but determines to
conquer society, ln fact, she thinks she
has, and out of this condition Sows ths
tun. ' '
Mr. Bell apparently feels the responsi
bility he hss assumed In giving life to John
Wesley Plpp, and never for a moment re
laxes his effort to be funny. This has al
ways been a characteristic of his work, a
self-consciousness that chokes any spon
taneity. If he would only let up now and
then his work would be much more effective
and enjoyable. As the good-humored, father
of a family of which the mother poses as
the head, he has a splendid chance for all
his powers as a conledlan. '
The really enjoyable contribution to tha
comedy of the piece Is that furnished by
M1s Belle Gaffney, ss Mrs. Plpp. She
thoroughly realises the part of the un
cultivated woman who looks to her money
to carry her through, and who pretends to
a culture and position she Is In no way
fitted to assume. Yet withal shs evince
the native goodness of an American mother,
ambitious for her daughters, and only
temporarily d sailed by the glitter of a
title. She bullyrags her husband, dominates
her daughters, mangles the king's English,
and lugs In foreign expression with a
charming disregard to their application or
pronunciation. Miss Gaffney' work 1
good.
The entire cast Is capable, and the wilt
snd strength of the comedy ia well brought
to the front. ., , ,, ,

A DISCRIMINATING womtn recently said, "The cur
taint and portieres are of more importance than thev'
rugs or carpets used in a room, because the former stand up
clearly before you impress themselves upon you whereas.
the floor-coverings do not."
And she was right,. Just '
take a look around yourself
and see if your hangings do
not make or mar the atrhos-
phere of good taste and refine
ment in any room.
How imperative then is care
ful judgment in choosing. The
