WOULD EIYA1 ELGIN IJASKZT Ikomai Fry i Appointed roanlflrr cf One lr the ( ommrrrlil Cluh to ( onfrr with Manufacturers. run are being made by the creamery itipn nf Omaha for the establishment of a "merchandising" butter market In Omaha, which will employ Inspectors and appoint a price committee which will make the price for a week, after carefully considering renditions, as is done on the Elgin market. Thomas Pry, district manager of A. Booth & Company, has been appointed a committee of one by the Commercial club to confer with the butter manufacturers as to the advisability of establishing a market. Mr. Fry haa not yet submitted a report, but It Is understood the creamery men are generally In favor of organizing a market. Speaking of the proposition. J. H. Rush ton, president of the Fairmont Creamery company, which will moke 15,000,000 pounds of butter this year, said: "In a broad way I believe a butter mar ket in Omaha, which will furnish th basis for selling the. high-grade butter of Ne braska, Kansas, western Iowa and South Dakota, to lie practical. "It means an organization of the manu faciurers, who will secure a room in which to meet and where butter dealers will buy and sell; the employment of a secretary, sompetent inspectors and a price commutes. Omaha, Natural Butter Center. "To the general public the primary reason would seem to be that a market is needed because Omaha manufactures more butter 11 an any other city In the country, but one of the primary reasons is that In making the prices for the week at Elgin the condi tions existing In the west cannot be care fully gone into and they may not always be the same as in Wisconsin, Illinois, east ern Iowa and Minnesota. "The price committee at Elgin has given us very satisfactory prices for a basis for Ihel ast'four' or ' e'.x years. Before that, they did a. lot of fu:ny tilings and there was soma speculation, but I believe the prices to be conscientiously made now. The only thing now is that Omaha is nearer the grain dairying ir.ure.su In the west and could probably secure more reliable in formation and keep closer in touch with the territory. "Should the plan succeed, It will be aome time before a vast amount of butter Is sold on the Omaha market that is. Sold on the ' basis of the prices fixed by the Omaha commit u. Omaha and Elgin would be merchandis ing markets of the country, while New York and Chicago would continue to be the "commission dealers markets." Other manufacturers are enthusiastic over the movement and say that it Is sure to come at no dietary lime, as Omaha Is the proper place to make the price of butter for the tranamlasouri country and a large part of Iowa.

P.ates of storage were announced by ths Omaha Wool add Storage company, Wednesday, and comparison with the rates In any other wool market shows that th Omaha rates are the lowest In the United States. TIm" first proposition was to make a flat rate of 5 cents per lnO pounds per month, which is the average rale charged In other warehouses, hut some nf the eastern mar kets, which are anticipating a decline as a result of the establishment of wool houses at Omaha, gave notice cf a sliding scale of rates. The matter was taken up at once with the Omaha company and they decidej Xo make the lowest schedule of rates In the United States. The following are the rates announced: Rate. Lbs. Storage, first month or fraction. . .3c 100 Storage, succeeding months, or 'ruction Jc 10" Unloading lc ion leading lc 3K) Weighing and certifying 2V 10" An angements were also completed Wed nesday for insuring the wool placed In the Omaha warehouse at the exceptionally low rate of 60 cents per tlOO. Facilities Most Favorable. The terms offered by the Omaha company and the inducements extended, by the Omaha banks are the most liberal of any In the I'nited States. While the commis sion houses of Boston have been advancing from 35 to 50 per cent of the Value of the wool In cash and charging Interest until settlement is made, the Omaha Wool and Storage company, In a letter to the growers of the west, makes the following announce ment : Sworn certificates of weight will be fur nished, making same negotiable for loans. ArrHnccm nts arc hlng perfected to nego tiate loans, if d.-sird, covering 60 per cent of the value of your wool, at a rate of 6 per cent per annum and 1 per cent com mission. It has also been announced that the warehouse company will pay the freight on all consignments, if desired, thus saving the grower from advancing a cent and en abling him to place the wool In storage at Omaha, simply delivering It at the railroad station nearest him and mailing the bill of lading to the warehouse company. This makes It possible for growers to come to Omaha when the manufacturers come here to buy, and each grower may attend to his sales and see that the best possble price Is obtained.

MO RAN ESTATE ALL CLOSED If Indiana Mas Is a Relative He Is Blow la Claiming Hla Rights. If Martin Moran of LagTO, Ind., is an heir of Frank Moran, who died In Omaha March 14, 112. he Is slow In asserting his claim to a share In the property, as the estate has been administered and closed up. Moran wrote the poutoffice authorities recently saying he understood Frar.S Moran died In the county hospital worth S5,oo0. No record of him is had at the county hospital, tut the jif'bate records show he died In l km v! rig real estate which after wards sold for KM and personalty worth 1500. P, C. Heafy administered the estate and the property went to his brother, John INDIANA TO HAVE "CORN DAY" Show Will Be Held la Every County and Prise Corn (tent to Omaha. Indiana commissioners appointed by the governor of that state to provide for ex hibits at the National Corn exjxisition have notified the association that every county in the state will observe a coin show day, tedneday, November 25, arid the premium corn will be sent to the great exposition at Omaha. The shows will be held under the auspices at the Purdje university which has In augurated the movement in that state, and will have charge of the exhibits at Omaha under the direction of the commissioners. Another bit of encouragement dropped Into the corn expedition headquarters Wednesday, when Governor Coe I. Craw ford of South Dakota sent copies of the proclamation which he haa issued for the National Corn exposition, calling on the growers of that state to participate and carry off all the premiums possible. The Omaha office of the Dempster Mill and Manufacturing company has notified the management of the show that the com pany will contribute fc!6G In special prem iums for corn, consisting of a gas engine, wind mills and feed grinders. Another Omaha Implement house has se cured from manufacturers over $4,000 worth of special premiums. This assures Ihe growers that the prem ium list will run to more than JoO.flon. In addition to the regular premiums of fered many bankers In different towns and cities of Nebraska are offering to pay growers of the counties in which they are located, from $10 to $o0 If they carry away a first or second premium from the Na tion Corn exposition for the county. Iowa bankers and manufacturers have also taken this means of encouraging the grower to secure premiums for their coun fies and the man who brings premium corn to Omaha will not be without honor in his own county. MORE CARS 0N ALL LINES Rrlrises Wants Better Service Throughout Rntlre City on the Trolley System. "My intention was to have an ordinance providing for quicker street car service on all lines In the city, but Ig. Dunn, assist ant city attorney, who drew up the ordi nance for me, specified merely the park Ifhe because he lives there." This is the explanation given by Lee Bridges, councilman, for but one street car line being mentioned In his ordinance pre sented to the council Tuesday nfght re quiring cars to be run at Intervals of every three minutes during the busiest hours of the day, and at Intervals of every six minutes at other times, even up to the late hour of 1 o'clock In the morning. The councilman says he will have the ordinance radically amended, providing It Is seen In the meeting of the committee of the whole next Monday afternoon that the provision is liable to pasB. . "If but one line was to have been picked out I would have specified the South Sher man avenue or the Fourteenth street line, as that would benefit me personally," aays Bridges, who lives In the Second ward. "Better service on the Park line won't do me any good. If better service Is to be Installed on one line Install It on all lines, I say." Dunn excuses himself for picking out the one l'ne on the ground that he Is not con versant with the conditions elsewhere. He says that the Park cars run about every fifteen minutes, and that is altogether too far apart. He goes on the theory that a test better be made of one line before bringing the whole system under the pro visions of the new ordinance. The majority of the councllmen knew nothing of the proposed ordinance prior to Us being introduced, but from comment among the i .rs of the aldermantc board It Is . ved that the ordinance will pas, sta'.i.' members of the council.

The day of monotony In coats Is past snd this season even the severest of tailor mades show considerable variety, while among the dressier costume coats and separate coats fancy runs riot. Never was there opportunity for greater inll vldusllty and originality In the proinc of the coat, and yet as the Paris season advances a very definite tendency Is mani fest, a thread upon which are strung a majority of the greatly diversified coat models. The dlrectolre period has asserted itself emphatically, and Ideas gleaned from this period are developed by all of the great French dressmaker, sometimes dominating the whole costume, sometimes toned down to mere suggestion of picturesque possibili ties. Friends write us of having seen at the race tracks 'round about Paris anl in the various fashionable rendesvoua of that city many costumes almost purely dl rectolre, with short-walsted coats cut sharply away Just below the bust In fr nt and sloping to long talis In the back, with collars high at back and sides, with huge reveis and wide cuffs and with scant cling ing princess skirts slightly draped. These, of course, are the extremes, but details from such costumes are Introduced upon models more conservative. For ex- ample, though the high dlrectolre collar Is too uncomfortable In warm weather to at tain actual popularity, revers are being made more and more prominent by the famous makers. i DIRECT0IRE COAT MODELS Group of Smart Sprlns; Wraps Are Shown by a Fashionable Importer. The handsome Dlrectolre costume of the cut was worn at one of the spring meet ings ot Longchamps, and, though by no means purely of Its period, it is fairly typical. Here the skirt was of chiffon broadcloth in the lightest and supplest quality and in the shade of green which the French call water green. A band of taffeta of the same shade was the only trimming, all elaboration being reserved for the coat of green chiffon taffeta, which was heavily embroidered In white silk. Four handsome enamel buttons orna mented the front of the draped girdle and beautiful old lace crossed In surplice fashion Inside the revers. The draped girdle worn outside of the coat is one of the late spring fads and appears not only upon such models as the one Just de scribed, but upon coats of various types, being usually of sash or scarf character rather than a soft rlrdle without enda Shower for Bride. Invite guests for dinner; have place cards for each. On the "bride-to-be" card at tach narrow ribbon, with the end long enougli to reach under the table. This one thing causes quite a good deal of guessing as to "why" she has ribbon and others none. At the end of this ribbon tie one end of a spool of heavy thread and begin to unwind over the house like spider web parties, and place along in obscure places gifts tied to the string that will be of use and pleasure to her. Gifts you can make, that she can put on as soon as she finds them, add greatly to her Joy. The excite ment grows as she winds up the spool, finding here and there something more, until the spool is wound and she is the possessor of a dosen or more gifts. By using the various departments of Ths Bee Want Ad Pages you get quick returns at a small expense. OFFICER WANTS NEW NUMBER Policeman Stull Says "1.1 Hoodooa II Ira and He Must Have (hfl ngc. "I'm hoofloood, chief, that's all there Is alio- t It, and I can't carry the burden any longer." Thus spoke Policeman Stull In the office of Chief of Police Donahue Wednesday morning. The officer held in his hand his badge. It was No. IS. The officer came to the force about four months ago. He had his misgivings when he was given badge No. 13. But he took It, thereby proving that he possessed the courage which is required in a policeman. But what is human courage against a hoodoo? Answer, Nothing. The policeman found that In spite of his best Inte ntions misunderstandings occurred; in spite of his greatest care, accidents hap pened; in spite of his supremest efforts to do his duty he was misunderstood. "I know I reported on time every day. but I was marked late seven times," ha snld to the chief. "And there's been a lot of other things gone wrong. There's no telling what will happen unless I get rid of this badge. I can't go on this way." The officer was very much in earnest and as his record on the force is excellent Chief Donahue did not consider It right that he should be burdened with a hoodoo. Therefore he relieved him of the badfte. "I'll take it. myself," said the chief. "I'm not superstitious and I don't think this hoodoo will do me any harm.' The chief's number is now 13. After the officer had left the chief's office light-hearted because he had a num ber free from hoodoo Art Shields, secre tary to the chief, looked at the calendar on the wall. A close observer with a large amount of imagination might have seen him start suddenly, tremble and turn pale. Whether he did this or not, it is certain that he remarked: "This is th-s thirteenth of the month." rOSTOFFICE CLOCK SOT STRUCK Just Getting; Set and Is Not Hit by Tornado. Men who were deluded Into setting their watches by the postoflice clock Wednesday morning came very neir going daft. In side of an hour or two the old clock indi cated any kind of time from II around to 12 again. Then It would go back and give time backwurd from 1 to 1. Things b' pan to look serious and there was an impression that the tornado had some:hlnj to do with It. The trouble was finally set tled, when It was discovered that the clock was undergoing repairs at the hands of Mawhli.ney & Ryan, The clock la all right now.
