Charles, Brown, a youth of 18 years, was
rrested 'yesterday, charged with the theft
of a revolver and other articles from the
roams of guests at the Metropolitan hotel
on Broadway. Brown, who claims to be
from Little Rocks Ark., had been stopping
at the hotel for several days. Burglar

to build up the western part of th. city
by' bringing over many families from
Omaha to make their homes on this side
of the river, where It Is generally con
ceded that living Is cheaper than on th.
other side.
Those opposed to the proposed 6-cent faro
take the position that as things ar. . the
man or woman employed In Omaha has the
advsntage of a 6-cent fare through the
coupon books and that this ought to suf
fice. Some business men even go so far
as to say that they wished the far. be
tween th. two cities was 26 cents, as if
this was the case much of th. Council
Bluffs trade which now goes across th.
liver would probably stay at home. Others,
however, say they do not believe a 6-cent
fare would affect th. local retail trade
one way or the other.
Real estate men, as might naturally b.
expected, favor th. proposed 6-cent fare,
believing that It would tend to build up
this city, especially the western part of It.
The agitation for th. straight 6-cent fare,
which was started by the West End Im
provement club, has reached such propor
tions and appears to be of such general
Interest that It Is expected the meeting
