Tfta young man upon whom the scholar

every way to be the recipient of Its ben

had" In mind when he established the fund
for the scholarship, and yet, of course,
this was Impossible. He Is the son of a
mechanic, his father, who died twelve
years ago. having been a plasterer. He is
boy who has worked his way through
school and has won the respect of all who
knew him. He is a young man who has
strut. fled against great odds to get an
education. He la now assured of the best
tha institutions of the country can gtve.

Beats Dawn Barriers.
But when school began in the fall the
young man determined to get an educa
tion In spite of handicaps. He wanted to
enter Armour Institute. Chicago. He en
tered the high school again, taking studies
In the morning, working In the afternoon
and getting his lessons at night. His honrs
at work then were from 1 to o'clock in
the afternoon and he "burned the mid
night oil" getting his lessons. He also
worked for the Bennett company, the Fox
Typewriter company and the Western
Electrical company.
In the face of many obstacles he kept np
his studies at the high awhool, being dis
couraged by nothing until he was gradu
ated. "It was a great day for Fred when he
learned he had bn given the scholar
ship." said Mrs. Cummina. "Mr. Fltx
gerald came to the house with a note from
Mr. Waterhouse Thursday. He pretended
he was an officer sent to arrest Fred but
he wouldn't tell him what they really
wanted with him. Fred thought there were
some typewriters that they wanted to have
repaired. When he got to the school they
asked him some questions and then he
learned that he had been nominated for
the scholarship. He could hardly talk for
happiness when he got home. But the rest
of ua did enough talking to make up for It.
He couldn't go to sleep till nearly 4 o'clock
In the morning. It was just what he had
been dreaming of all along, though he
never could see his way clear to It.
I Reward of Iadmatrr-
"I remember when we read about the
scholarship In Mr. Rosewater's will some
of the girls said. 'Wouldn't It be fine If
Frits could get that.' But Fred said he
guessed no such luck would come his way.
If there was ever a boy deserved It on ac
count of working hard for his education
Fred certainly did."
The young man himself Is rather ad
verse to talking about his own privations
and struggles.
"The one you want to the credit to
la my mother." he says. "She la the one
who has st,ood the weight of .all our hard
pull. She. was tip' against It pretty hard
when father died, but she pulled through
all right."

Then I determined to go through and my
object even that early waa to go to Ar

If looks count for anything It la plain
tn be aeen that Fred Cummina will make
good use of the advantagea which have
been placed at hla disposal. Sound ' In
mind and body he la the type of the
sturdy, self-reliant youth of whom the
best manhood is made.
Fred Cummina waa born In Pawns City,
Neb.. July 17, 1SSS. His father died when
ha waa I years old. The mother, left with
seven children, did her best to keep them
all in school. Fred earned hla own living
from the time he waa 13 year old.
As the children grew up some of them
came to Omaha and In the spring of 1W1

aenaees that ratroas West Will
Be aaplle and Those la

The housewives of Omaha and XeDraska
will have to learn to do without P.iX:k
Springs coal. This was the substance of a
statement made Saturday morning by W.
L. Park, general superintendent of the
Union Pacific, who has been making a
tour of the west.
"We have Investigated the shortage of
coal at Sidney, as reported In The Pee i
and the report seems to be true." said
Mr. Park, "but It also seems to be the
fault of the coal dealers In not anticipating
his orders. Sidney is on the Burlington as:
well as the t'nlon Pacific, and has access:
to Colorado coal and a larfte part xt ttj
supply comes from that territory. Aa'
soon as we received advice of a snortane
at Sidney we offered the dealers coal from
our supply, but they have not yet ac
cepted our offer, so there did not seem to
be any Immediate danger. Besides they
knew the Union Pacific Railroad company
under preent conditions would take car?
of them, as It has In the past, whenever
It appeared necessary for any reason to
do so.
LaTtaar In Vast Store.
"We have the courage of our convictions
and have laid In nearly 500.00 tons of coal
and are still buying and storlr.g. from any
place we con find coal on the market, con
sequently the people along the Union Pa
cific need feel no alarm, at least until the
new federal law goes Into effect, when it j
will' be necessary for us to quit selling, j
"Of course we realize the people will
use no other coal hut Rock Springs so
long as it can be obtained, but because
of the demands cf te Pacific northwest, as
well as Utah and Nevada, the entire pro
duct Is gnlnr in that direction, and It Is
thus Impossible to keep the people of this
section supplied. This Is due. as I said
the other day. to the settling of the west
and the opening of new Industries, mines,
electric llrht plants, water works in new
towns, and every kind of a demand, which
must be met, and a lack of foresight on
the Tart of thoso having In charge the
commercial affairs In not developing coal
mines fast enough to keep up with the ad
vance in industrial conditions.
"The Union Pacific Coal company In the
lajt year has spent hundreds of thousands
of dollsrs opening new mines and putting
In the latest machinery In an endeavor to
Increase the output.
"We are now hauling coal from Council
Fluffs, from Illinois mines and from Mis
souri all the way to Ogden with which to
operate our tra'ns. at a considerable in
crease In operating expenses. In order to
supply the commercial centers of the west.
Much to our discomfort we are using this
Instead of the Rock Sprtngs, which with
us, as well as with the housewife, la a pre
ferred coal.
Cannat Get Aay More.
"The people of Nebraska must come to a
full realization of existing conditions and
buy their coal ""from eastern mines, back
their dealers up In this and give up the
Idea of ever again being supplied with
Rock Sprtngs coal, at least to any great
extent. For so long as the coal fields of
the west are not developed rapidly enough
to oare for the needs of the people the east
ern coal will have to be burned In Ne
braska. I want to reiterate that the people
along the Union Pacific will not be allowed
to suffer as long as we can give them coal
from our supply, but It behooves them to
help the situation by Insisting on a reason
able supply at this time when coal Is easily
obtained from the east. We anticipate no
difficulty In getting all we want.
"We offered to furnish coal at Sidney as
soon as we saw In The Bee of the short
age, not because of any fear of a raid on
our coal bins, but In pursuance of our
policy to care for the dealers."
The federal law to which Mr. Park re
fers la that which will go Into effect Janu
ary 1, 190. and will prohibit railroad com
panies from selling coal.

Probation officers of the juvenile court
are apparently having as much success
in correcting the evil habits of some adults
as In controlling children. Said a member
of the force Saturday morning:
"Six weeks or more ago a case waa re
ported from Gust street where a man and
woman were confirmed users of intoxicating
liquor. They were neglecting their chil
dren and the judge ordered the children
taken from their custody If they did not
change their ways. We bad occasion to
visit, the neighborhood yesterday and find
they have taken the lecture of the court
to heart. The house Is clean, the woman

garden. No liquor has teen In the house
since the family came under the obser
vation ef the court ar.d there seems to
be little danger of more trouble for that
family."
