E. B. Towl, who has been superintendent
of the Omaha Packing company'! plant
for twenty-one years, haa tendered hla res
ignation Jto take effect October 11 He Is
the oldest man In the service of the com
pany and during; his service has borne a
treater responsibility than usually falls to
the lot of a superintendent. Under his man:
agement the Omaha Parking company .has
increased Us business and its facilities for
handling the same by many times. It has
been his untiring application to his wofh
and the Intense Interest In the affairs of
his company that has at lust compelled
him for the sake of his remaining years to
resign his ' position. . With the opening of
tha old Hammond plant he was thrown
Into duties which kept him .constantly In
tha long unused an! decaying building.
Here, before the structures could be ren
ovated, from the unsanitary conditions he
contracted malaria, which has so saturated
hi system that he Is compelled to give up
the position he has occupied for so many
years. This action has been one accompan
ied by much regret on his "part. The con
dlllon of the plant as It stands today Is a
worthy testimonial to the pride he has
taken In It. Many of the plans worked out
rn the remodeling were entirely his own.
Many of the Ingenuous labor saving devices
ware his conception. He was In his younger
days a civil engineer In the railway service.
He struck the first levels for the Chicago
Eastern Illinois railroad and was with
the company until the construction was
completed. He drove the golden spike. At
n early day he was city engineer of South
Omaha. This exerience made his service
most valuable to' the packing company,
Mr. Towl has not decided what he shall
do after leaving the service; but there, is
little doubt that opportunities will open
before him when ha is so ' Inclined. The
Qrst thing, at any rate, will be to take a
good rest, probably In mountain air or dn
the Pacific slope. When he feels that lie
haa conquered the malaria, from Which he
has been aufforing, he will decide on the
work he Would Ilk to follow. His wife and
children are glad to know that he has,
after considerable urging, determined to
make the change. No one knows the ln
. tense application with which he has clung
to his work so well as they. When it
doubled and trebled on his hands , thoy
saw ' him shoulder It as before. Two of
, hla sons are In business here. .
Sew DalMlnir at Jetter's.
1 he Jetter Brewing company received
a complete set of plans and specifications
for a new building yesterday morning.
These plans were prepared by Architect
Henry. Voss. The new building will bo
t 66x115 feet and Is to have a threefoM
purpose, a washing room, a racking room
and a stock room. The racking room
occupies the central section of the bull.l-
Ing, which faces the south upon the artl
. flclal lake. . Its dimensions are 112x50
.' feet and will be a'story and a half. .The
celling, of the first floor Is twenty feet.
The walla of hls building will he twenty
five Inches thick, so that the height of
the building can b raised to five stories
eventually. The section west of the rack
ing room Is the washing room, where
the .kegs and barrels are. cleansed and
fitted for ' filling. They are then atored
In the racking room and are also filled
there for trade. East of the racking room,
- ht' the stock room. This room will have
half' a 'dozen -large ' capacity, glass en-
ameled tanks Connected with the brew
ing departments and cold storage cellars.
The beer will be piped Into these tanks
and allowed to properly age. The "wah
room Is (2x70 feet and the stock room
Is (2x42 feet. A platform Is to be built
along the aides. The one In front -ilt
be for wsgon loading snd nt the rear for
the railroad. The style 1 of architecture
Is In keeping with the buildings alrealy
erected. The contracts for the hulldinf
will be let Immediately and work will
begin In one week. The building will be
erected before winter sets In If ponsililo
and will come Into use by January 1 If
all the present plans work out. This
building will make three substantial addi
tions to the equipment of tho brewery
within a year.
City Loses Two Cases.
Two Important cases of the -Ity which
have been pending before the supreme
court have been decided adversely, un
cording to' the report of the attorney,
retained by South Omaha. The first -was
decided some time ago, and by it Thomas
Gillespie was awarded damages amount
ing to $3,000 arising from the ronstru -t!on
of the West L street' viaduct. The
Attorneys Immediately filed a motion !
a new trial, This .was overruled by the
retort and the tae ' is at an t-nd. Tha
Judgment Will' have to be paid. The sec
ond ce was that 'of "J. W. I'.mke for
It.tOO personal Injuries caused, as ' Al
leged, Trom a'fntl t Twenty-second an!
U streets "while In. the .enirJpy. of the. t-ltj;
and due to a wild team. The caau v.as
tried on points of law and the ?lty lout.
'A motion for a new hearing w(il be filed.
May Lose Pavlaar Case.
It Is asserted that by a discrepancy
nscbvered 'between "tha ebiti jilted siarCflci
of Nebraska and. the engrossed copy of
the law, the chance of the city to win
In the Twenty-fourth street paving case
are greatly ' endangered. The point of
danger Is that, the recorded remonstrance
against the paving may prove valid. The
statutes, as complied, require that such
a remonstrance shall be signed by 60
per cent of the residents or pioperty
owners along the strett. It Is claimed
that the engrossed law shows isn altera
tion or erasure, and where the statutes
read 50 per cent the engrossed copy reads
25 per cent. This engrossed copy is the
final authority and will be binding unless
it can be shown that the erasure and tho
substitution were fraudulent.
Y. M. C. A. Walts on Deed.
The local Young Men's Christian asso
ciation has all arrangements completed
for the first payment on the lots at
Twenty-third and M streets. The only
delay Is now occasioned while the deed
is being sent to Philadelphia for signa
tures. The board of directors held an
Important meeting Thursday evening at
the Greer hotel. They decide! to move
the present gymnasium to the lots as
soon as possible and set it tip there on
a ten-foot basement. This basement will
contain the locker1 room and the baths
and some amusement rooms for the mem
bers. Two of the three cottages now on
the lot will be fitted up for use. It la
hoped that this work can be done within
the next sixty days.

HERMIT'S PILE OF MONEY
Lone ForelKn nelatlve Come in
a BancU of American
Money.
for
A verftable gold mine was discovered
when the old safe in the home of John
Shepard, the hermit of York, 111., who
was found dead In his yard, was broken
open' by W. C. Tubbs. bank president, and
executor of the last will and testament of
the aged man. ' One hundred thousand dol-
dars would approximately cover the amount
of money and securities discovered.
The money was divided Into $20,900 caBh,
IJO.OOO In cash deposits In the National
Bank of Monmouth, and the -balance In
gilt-edge securities.
All will revert to a niece, Mrs. Margaret
Shepard Poole, of Dunfermline, Scotland,
who Is the only living heir of the hermit,
Upon Shepard's death It was claimed by
many that he had stored away a great
amount of money In his home, and an
Investigation of the house revealed- the
safe In a bedroom. This was the room
In which the old hermit slept.
And, aside from being a regular bank
vault. It was also an arsenal. Two re
volvers under his pillow, a shotgun across
the foot of the bed and two corn knives
on the floor were the weapons with which
he Intended to defend himself In case of
attempted robbery.
No key to the safe could be found. A
blacksmith forced open the safe.
The drawers .were filled with securities
of various kinds, and a small amount of
money was discovered. A more thorough
search revealed a hidden door, and when
this had been opened the small pocket
was found to . be packed with greenbacks
of every denomination, totaling $30,000. The
safe had been closed and the officers had
started to leave, when someone suggested
that there might be another secret pass
age. A second search revealed a pocket
containing $900 In gold. Search for addi
tional hidden fortunes is being made. St.

FICTION, FACT AND FASHION
FISHERMEN J50J, , A DEER
While the Hasten , Who Had
Woaadrd It Stood Afar aad
Said Thla-k.
To so running; for deer and catch a
fisherman 'cursing: and to go flailing- for
salmon and catch a deer were tha varied
experiences of . two distinct classes of
sportsmen at Tennessee cove, bay of Ban
Francisco. The two conflicting; parties at
break of day took their several ways, one
expedition going to the same preserve of
the Tamalplas club and the other as pas
sengers on Sutherland's launch from Bau
sallto for a aalmon flshlns trip up the
coast.
The party of hunters gave chase to a fine,
fat and fleet-footed deer and kept It up all
over the preserve until late In the after
noon. One of the' party said that the deer
could have been killed at "jnost any time,"
but that thj sportsmen preferred to pro
long the pleasure of the hunt until the
hour had arrived for returning home. The
deer became wounded In the course of the
chaae. In its mad run across the preserve
It struck a trail which led to the big
cliff fronting the water at Tennessee cove.
The hunters were In close pursuit, and aa
the doer came near to the cliff It dived Into
the water In a mad effort to escape its
pursuers and struck out for a rock rising
In the water about SuO feet from shore.
The party of fisherman happened along
on their return from Hauaallto to Bollnas
bay Just as the deer made tta mad plunge.
The launch was reversed and headed for
the swimming deer. When It came abreast
the boat one of tha "sportsmen" therein
landed with an oar upon the deer's head
and killed It. The game was hauled aboard
and the launch set out for Bausalito with
all possible despatch.
The hunting party, which by thla time
had gathered on the cliff, looked on for a
moment with chargln. Then, ona of tha
party commanded tha fishermen to "coma
back with that deer." The reply from the
boat was, "Not on your life." The reply
was followed with oaths.
In an effort to restore the deer and the
honor of tha day's hunt one of tha party
en tha cliff fired five shots In tha direction
of tha fleeing launch. Tha bullets failed
to reach their mark and tha dear hunter
returned to th club hou. Baa Franolsoa

October Wood Craft has unusually well
illustrated articles on joinery and furniture
making, the shape and strength of wood
screws, a machine woodworker's notes on
Douglas fir and rediscoveries In saw teeth,
an ingenioua short order Job for the pat
ternmaker, the removal of wax from shel
lac, fillers and formulas, a new stain from
Germany, an oak finish for birch. Inexpen
sive French polishing, the grinding of
woodworking tools, some circular saw wrin
kles, practical woodturning, etc. The Gard
ner Printing company, Cleveland, O.
Smith's Magazine appears this month
with a lot of good things. There Is a
timely article on the financial situation of
tho railroads at the present time. There Is
an article Illustrated with photographs,
telling about the smart waists and new hats
which will be worn this fall, that wtll In
terest every woman. There is an, article
Illustrated with photographs on a strange
religious house in Europe where women
are never allowed to speak. Eden Phllpotts
haa a delightfully humorous story about
boys. Holman F. Day has contributed an
uproariously funny .story of New England,
country girl," by Warren B. Davis, printed
in colors on tinted -paper.
The October issue of The People's
Magazine, has a very pleasing over-design.
This picture represents a tugboat, such as
one may see In the waters around New
York any day. Just about to puss under
the Brooklyn bridge with its tow. It is
hemmed In on all sides by the endless
variety of wutcr-craft which make the Jam
on the East river well-nigh as Impassable
at times as the crowds which fill soma
of New York's important thoroughfares.
The People's has been using Quite a series
of characteristic every-day views for Its
cover-designs. However, the outsids of the
magazine only faintly Indicates its contents.
Twenty-two short stories, a complete novel.
and some very good numbers 1111 up the 192
pages w.iich constitute the October issue
of The People's Magazine.
There are Beveral short stories of
strength in tho October number of Uncle
Remus' Magazine. Among these may bo
mentioned "The Long Fellow From Scot
land" by Beumua-Mac Manus, "From Dawn
to Dusk" by Arihur Colton, "The Ghost of
the Tusqulttee" by leather Roberts, and
"A Voyage In Shallows" by Emery Pottle.
"A Voyage In Shallows" is deyldedly one of
the few really valuable short stories found
among the mass of such writings today.
It is a story of force, and is a subtle yet
eloquent sermon on the sacredness of the
marriage vows and the weight of such
vows to bind the spirit as well as the
body. No one can read "A Voyage in
Shallows" and forget it soon nor fall to
feel the strong undercurrent of philosophy.
A story of rather an unusual sort appears
in The Rejr Book Magazine for October.
It Is by George Bronson-lioward and bears
the title "The Pawn." lis locale Is the
For Sale, Shares In E. Bodge." Dorothy Philippines, and while the motif of the story
Canfleld haa contributed one of the best
of her short stories, "The Postage Stamp
Book." Besides all these, there Is a com
plete novel by Anne O'Hagan, "On Board
the Nepenthe," In which we find a love
story of a new-sort, but with all the old
fashioned thrills to It. "The Strategy of
Stringer," by George Barton, and "Father'
Rule ot Love," by Grace DufFteld Goodwin,
are two delightful short stores that no lover
of Action can afford to miss. There are
sixteen beautifully Brlnted art-studies of
prominent actresses, and an Illustrated In
terview with Alia Nazlmova by Rennold
Wolf. There are eight- drawings of "the

is rather daring, one losea thought of that
in the power of the narrative and!
"strength" of the situation In which the
