COMBINE COMES BACK TO LIFE tor Taralngr Doiri Original PronosHloa la Prices Ten to Twfulf pr Cent Higher Than Last Year. The locsl Coal trust hat coma to life . Ion enough to show the county board that , thing are not what they seem, long enough to demonstrate that when It Is necessary to fool the consumers of coal Into believing there la a'blg fight on hand when certain old stocks must be disposed of they can make them believe they aro cutting prices and then to aliow them that when It la necessary to stand together they can rains prices. The Omaha coal dealer figuratively handed the taxpayer of Douglas county a large acrid lomon when they paaaed In tha aecond grist of roal bids, which was opened by the county board Saturday mornina-. prices without exception were from S to 15 per cent higher than they were at the first bidding. Apparently the Increase waa Intended ai a rebuke to the member of the board for rejecting the first ct of bid and calling for new one. The flrat bid were opened about a month ago. Comparison with last year' price showed an Increase of 10 to 20 per cent In almost every Important Item. A couple of week go the board rejected these bid and asked for new ones, hoping to secure the co-operation of South Omaha dealer fn securing lower prices. When the new bids were opened Saturday morning It be came apparent the county board had not taken some things Into account. Some of the dealers who were low In the first com petition did not bid at all, and those who did submit bids made a surprisingly unl form Increase In the first bids. Examples of Blddlnar. A example of the first bidding C. B Haven Co. offered to furnish Chorokee team coal for the court house at $2.88. The low bid at the second competition was I2.S4 by the Victor White Coal company. The price of Cherokee nut ha gone from $4.04 to $4.20; Missouri mine run from $3.13 to $3.20; Iowa mine run from $3.18 to $3.28. Practically the same Increase Is shown In the prices of coal to be delivered to the Douglas county hospital switch. For furnishing coal to the Indigent poor the Victor White Coal company wa low at both biddings, but between the first and the second bidding the price went up. For domestic nut. rescreened, this com pany at the flrst competition a month ago bid $4.10 per ton, $2.60 for half ton and $1.35 for quarter ton lot. The bids from the same company opened Saturday were for $4.80 for ton lot and $2.65 and $1.38 for half and quarter ton lot respectively. Boosting Hard Coal. Another Important boost In price la In anthracite for the detention school. A month ago 8underland Bros, bid $9.(10 a ton. Tills time Sunderland Bros, did not bid and C. W. Hull company and Victor White Coal company are tied at $10.25, an In crease of 65 cent over the price a month ago. "I told the boy they had better not re ject the bid." aald Commissioner Brunlng, after exaicJnlng the new bids. "I said the dealers wald be liable to get mad and tick us for still higher price and It look a If that was what they have done." The board fared better In Its bids for grading than In Its coal bid. Proposals were received for grading the Shepherd road, the Stoltenberg road, the Washing ton county line and the Center street roads. The bids have not been tabulated yet, but members of the board declare they are the lowest received this year. They were re ferred to the road committee, which will act on them at Its next meeting. Notice of Raise at Mines. Coal wholesalers In Omaha have re ceived notice of an advance of 50 cents a ton on soft -coal at the Illinois mines and an advance of 20 to 85 cents on Missouri coal. The price on the Iowa product has not risen. This will not affect the retail price, but the dealers say If another advance of these proportions comes the cost to consumers will be Increased. They believe It not un likely that another advance will be made. At the present date wholesalers are paying for coal Just about what they paid a year ago. The mine owners In Ohio and West Vir ginia have raised the price and Mr. Com mon People Is required to pay 25 cents a ton mors than a week ago. Boston coal dealer raised the pries 26 cents a short time ago and have announced that a similar advance will go Into effect September 1. Oar Oifi Mlaatrcla.

Many stories are told of Tad's mis chievous pranks and of his father's close companionship with his favorite boy. Tin ker records that on one occasion Lincoln came Into the telegraph office chuckling to himself over a fairy story book that some one had given to Tad, who was holding his father's hand as he entered the room. He thereupon repeated the story to the cipher operators. It told how a mother hen tried to raise a brood of chicks, but was much disturbed over the conduct of a sly old fox who ate several of the young sters while still professing to be an honest fox; so the anxious mother had a serious talk with the old reynard about his wicked ness. "Well, what was the result?" asked one of us when It appeared that Lincoln did not Intend to continue his narrative. "The fox reformed," said Lincoln, his eyes twinkling, "and became a highly respected paymaster in the army, and now I . am wondering which one he Is." The signifi cance of this reference 1 In the fact that about that time there were rumor of fraud In the paymaster' department. Much ha been aald about Lincoln being Influenced by hi dream. For Instance, It has been stated by good authorities. In cluding members of his cabinet, that be fore each of the great battle of ths war, and also before the occurrence of some other specially notable event In hi life, he had a vivid dream which led him to look forward at auch a time with great anxiety for the announcement of some disaster or other Incident of a particularly Important character. It Is related that on the night before his assassination he had an unusually exciting dream, which he thought was a portent of Impending danger of some sort. That he did have this habit of being deeply affected and Influenced by theae vlslona of the night Is clearly shown by the following telegrams: WASHINGTON. D. C-. June . lS63.-Mrs. A. Lincoln, Philadelphia: Think you had better put Tad's pistol away. I had an Ugly dream bout him. A. LINCOLN WASHINGTON. Aug. 81, U&t.-Mrs. A Lincoln. Manchester. Vt: All reasonably well. Bob not here yet. How Is dear Tad? . , . A- LINCOLN. Mr. A. Lincoln. Manchester, Vt.: All well. Including Tad pony and the goats. A. LINCOLN. .Tll dear Tad poor Nanny goat I lost. The day you left Nanny was found resting herself and chewing her lit tle cud on the middle of Tads bed. but now she's gone. a. LINCOLN. The president' affection for his youngest boy wa uch that they were together much of the time, even while the father waa receiving caller or attending to official business In the White House, and nearly always- when visiting ths army at the front or In the defenses around Washing ton. They came to the War department hand In hand many times. Lincoln went to City Point In March, 1865. As usual. Tad went with him and remained with hla father after Mra Lin coln returned to Washington a week later. Tad became a great pet among ths officers and men. Each afternoon during their two weeks' stay tha headquarters' bund marched up to ths open space near ths president's tent and played popular alra for an hour or so. Tad enjoyed ths mualo of the brass band very greatly and was on the lookout each afternoon when the appointed hour approached. A soon a he heard the atraina of mualo In the, dls tanos he would Jump up and down and hout: "There come our band! There oome our band ("-Century Magazine.

GUNNYSACR FOR FIG LEAF Young Man Usei Strange Apparel, Caniing Much Fun. IN SWIMMING, LOSES CLOTHING Saved by Kindly Man with Bngg? and BaaTt Who Takes Him Home Under Cover of Darkness. A certain young man who lives on North Twenty-fourth street is strangely sensitive at present on the subject of going swim ming. The reason is this: With a party of young people he went to Luke Manawa last week. After the picnic dinner he slipped away up the beach to a place he knew, divested himself of his clothes and plunged In for a swim. He was much' refreshed by the plunge. He ran up and down the bank for a time to dry and then reached for his clothes. They were gone. He searched everywhere, thinking per haps some of his party had hidden them for a Joke. But his search was in vain. To make matters worse, he heard the girls call him. And, like Adam, he was -ashamed and hid himself. It became dark and a cold wind sprang up. The young man shivered. Far away the lights mere bleamlng where people were merrymaking. He was even less fortunate than Adam, for he was not In a fig orchard. There was a road not far away and In the dusk he saw a buggy approaching. He ran across the fields shouting. A young couple seated under the shadow of a treo TRUST 5 JitA W IS I J- ill m.

But the swimmer ran on. Ho caught tha buggy. Fortunately, the occupant was an old man who was neither frightened, sus picious nor amused. He possessed a gunny sack, priceless treasure. With a knife ha cut holes In the bottom for the young man's legs. Holes were also cut for tha arms, and when It was drawn up and tied around his neck the effect, while not In any way similar to the latest fall fashions, at any rate beat nothing. For a consideration the old man took tha young one to his home In Omaha. They drove up to the side door and the young man made a dash for It. Unfortunately, the door was locked. Neighbors had beast attracted by the sight of ths twinkling af the white limbs as he ran In from tha buggy and a curloua crowd gathered. Frantically the strangely clad youth pounded on the door and finally In despera tion he ran around to ths rear, broke a window with a broom handle, unfastened the catch, pushed the window up, jumped In and found final sanctuary. Tha old man tied his horse, came around to the win dow and received his fee. The other members of ths young man's pleasure party, worried over his absence, telephoned to his home. "Suddenly taken sick and had to hurry back," replied tha or.ng man. But the story came out and now It Is a dull day when two or more members of that party do not have business which takes them to the store where ths young man la employed. There they gravely dis cuss the merits of sundry spots at Lak Manawa for bathing and speculate on tha possibility of having one's clothes stolen. G O O 8.50 O r nsa O eS-i 'VtninSift's-i ion NsjSYtlr
