The fact that there is at present so large an excess In tha Packers' National over tha othera Is becauae the deposits In those two are per manent, while the deposits In the Tack era' bank la subject to chick and there fore variable.

Towle, superintendent of the new Omaha plant, yesterday took occasion to deny the report that there was any dis agreement among the officials or the stockholders of that company on account of the large expense In remodelling tha old Hammond plant. Such has been tha report published. Mr. Towle said: "Every thing has been going along smoothly, with no interruptions nor objections.- We have met with greater difficulties than we an ticipated when we undertook the work of repairing the plant Many of the floor which we thought safe- were found to be hopelessly impaired. The new government Inspections made us an additional expense. Tou may deny without .qualification any opposition from the members of tha or ganisation." . . The plant la now naarlng completion. The killing of hogs will begin In about a week In all probability. The new offlce building of five stories is almost under cover. The loading sheds and other build ings are well along,' The approach to the O street viaduct Is practically done and will be a great convenience. The entire plant is taking on the appearance of fin- ished order and tidiness. Armour A Co, are rapidly raising the walla of the lard and oleo departments which were destroyed last summer.

Ad dress Pattern Department Omaha Bee, Omaha, Neb. qulttal, for the sort of eccentricity of which lie Is guilty Is such as to make him and 1,1s County Fair strong In the hearts of those people who are not so far gone on '.he "art" und "technique." but like to get close to nature and enjoy s few of the old-fashioned realities of life. In this little drama, as In few others, these people find an evening of genuine and unbroken enjoy ment. The County Fair, which has been be fore the public for eighteen succesful sea sons. Is an interesting little story of that Hlmpie. pastoral life back In New England the northern part of old Vermont, to be precise. The grotesque simplicity of that plain folk In Itself Is a mine of humor and Burgess strikes pay dirt every time he swings his pick. The man's makeup Is perfect, his study of the part of a New England old maid however she may differ from other old maids brought him to a j knowledge which oughtn't be questioned by any one who Is not closer to the situation than he is and they say he almost lives the part. It Is a part that naturally would grow on one. Burgess Insists he knows the part and knows woman, as he remarks at one point in the play. "I guess I know a woman I've been one for such a long j time." I Tha audience laughs. Later In the play, though, the audience laughs again and then suddenly reflects upon the wisdom that caused its mirth. J "Otis Tucker, I'm a woman, I'd have you I understand; and I want to say, sir, that when I make up my mind that there ain't no power on earth that can make me change it." Then Otls-h's her big fat, laxy suitor who takes fourteen years to rake up courage enough to put the question blunders up in front of her and smiles and she falls all ever him and herself, too, as she spurts out, Otls. you kin do the cutest things." . But, like most New England farms they tell about In stories, the one Aunt Aboy hag Is mortgaged. Imagine a stiff-necked old Puritan, New England old maid, who had waited for fourteen years for a man to pro pose to her and twice that long to raise the mortgage, at a county fair where her own horse, ridden by a beneficiary of hers, with out her knowledge, having handed to her at one and the same time 13,000. first money at the races, and a marriage license by Otla. That's Aunt Abby's finish and she-recovers the shock In fine shape. Probably the two most striking features of the play, so far as realism is concerned. are the horse race and that, good, old square dance in the barn at night. Mr. Burgess has a very clever company if "which -Wnrtley-frtcCutJurrM Wta: Tti l-'cesf aParker,; Miss Josephine Wlthrow" and William F.

When a laxative is seeded the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians woull sanctioDi because its component ports are known to be wholesomj and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and. recommend and which the little one enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is-Syru? of Figs and for the game reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrun of Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to increase their profits.

Johnny Fogarty as the assistant correspondent with the slang Is about all the money, and Mabell Addlngton, the stenographer, Jlmmlc's sweetheart, who . Is also there with the the same class of goods "Gee, but she certainly is great." There Is a whole lot of her (300 pounds with her gum in her mouth), but not any too much to suit the audience. George L. Cox Is tho Telegraph's correspondent who starts the war, and Leo Kendall Is a dandy Louis Koeln, who has to "commit suicide to save his life." and refuses to do either. Tha female portion of the cast cannot be spoken of with too flattering words, from the "native women" to Mabel Mo- Cane, whose name is on the list In caps. She is tin Princess Lfelany. Ethel Dovey's name ought to be set from the upper case, too, if popularity with the crowd is used as a teat. Both young women are decidedly handsome and have good voices.
