WORK ON LEVI CARTER PARK
Preliminary Improvement Will
Done This Year If Plan fas
Be Completed.
Be
Preliminary work of Improvement will be
done In Levi Carter park, surrounding Ba
llna Sea, this year, providing W. A. Adams,
superintendent of parks, can perfect his
plan in time. Title has not been secured
to any of the land, but the money Is avail
able and payments will probably be made
soon.
At the last meeting of the Board of
Park Commissioners Superintendent Adams,
who Is a landscape architect, was In
structed to begin work on plan at once.
The first plans to be drawn will be for
a boulevard to the park, the preliminary
plans to be for a boulevard on Grand ave
nue or Brown or Fowler streets. The board
will meet again next week und select from
the preliminary plans the best for a boule
vard and designate which street to be
used as the main driveway to the proposed
park.
"If it can possibly be done tha board
hopes to get a boulevard In shape this
year," says President Berryman of the
board. "Even though the park is not a
park as yet, the lake Is there and the
first thing to be done la to build a boule
vard to the lake so people can get to It
without crawling between a number of
freight cars and over railway tracks. The
Improvement of the park will come next."
Mr. Adams says It will take two or three
months to complete the plans for all the
Improvements to be made In the new park
and that It will take years to accomplish
everything needed. The board Intends to
make Levi Carter park the most popular
resort in the city.

SHEATH TROUSERS FOR MEN
Fashion In Omaha mm Observed In
Mexico and Spain is Suggested
by Man's Misfortune.
Sheath trousers for men! 1
If women are to wear "sheath gowns'
why should men not wear "sheath pants,'
trousers or whatever they call them?
This waa the question which more than
1,000 perrons asked at 10 o'clock Wednes
day morning, when Athern Ager, driver of
delivery wagon, was thrown from hi
wagon and his trouser leg ripped up above
the knee.
Dared by a fall to the pavement, young
Ager etood at the Paxton hotel corner for
ten mlnutea wondering which way to start
for his runaway horse.
Now, that fellow has started a fashion,"
said Head Clerk Sherman. "That Is, he
has started a fashion in Omaha, but as a
matter of fact sheath trousers are a very
old fashion in many parts of the world.
Take Spain and Mexico, for example.
There the trousers worn by the vaquero.
are slit ana mcea irom the knee down
and flare out at the bottom, just as the
expressman's do.
'It seems to me the people are making
a lot of fuss over a very old Idea, but
sheath trousers for men will never be very
popular In the United States. The main
reason Is that a man's legs do not com
pare tavoraoiy witn tnose or the Venus
of MUo. Then when a man does anything
It Is not by halves. If the sheath pants
become popular, take It from me that men
will return to satin breeches and whits
stockings like our friend Oeorge woru."
MAIL R0BBERJS STILL SAFE
Charles savaae la Not at Sooth Omaha,
a Officials Were Led to
Believe.
Postofflce Inspector Frsyser and a dep
uty United States marshal went to South
Omaha Tuesday afternoon to arrest
negro who was supposed to be Charles Sav
age, alias Charles Stevens, the Kansas City
mall pouch robber. The tip wss given the
officials by a colored man who claimed
to know Savage and who insisted that he
was In hiding In South Omaha. The sus
pected party was found, but did not answer
Savage's description at all, and no arrest
was made.
The stimulus of the government's offer
of $3,0e0 reward for the arrest and convic

TWO-CENT FARE BIG SUCCESS
Reduced Eate and Elimination of Pass
Swell Bailroad Earnings.
LARGEST GAIN ON UNION PACIFIC
rerrentace Is Greatest In States of
Sparse Poaalatloa Despite the
Arsasaenta Pat Vp by
Kxperts.
The $-cent fare pays, and pay biggest In
the less densely populated states.
Advocates of the l-cent passenger fare
find ample ground to sustain their original
pleas In the reports of earnings filed by
leading railroads of the country with the
Interstate Commerce commission. These
reports comprehend all departments of reve
nue, covering the period of the railroad year
ending June SO, and they show that the
passenger earnings constitute a much larger
percentage of the total gross earnings than
was the case for the year ended June 30,
1907. Another most significant fact found
In the reports Is that while several of the
more Important railways show a decrease
In their gross earnings they show an In
crease in their passenger revenue alone.
Of the railroads whose fiscal years are
such as to afford a basis for comparison,
the Union Pacific show the largest per
centage gain in the percentage of passenger
earning to total gross. This Is regarded
a most remarkable. Inasmuch a the one
argument opposing the 2-cent fare bill was
that while the reduced fare might be war
ranted In states whose population was more
dense than that of Nebraska and other
western states traversed by the Union Pa
cific It would Inevitably militate as a hard
ship In these western states.
During the year ended June , 1907, its
psssenger earnings constituted 19.81 per cent
of its total gross. During the eleven
months ended May 31. 190, they constituted
21.87 per cent of gross. This relative In
crease Is equal to 11.5 per cent.
The Union Pacific's actual passenger earn
ings for the eleven months In question were
$11,957,864, as compared with $14,912,608 for
the year ended June SO, 1907.
Next Come Soathera Line.
The largest percentage increase In pas-
aenger earnings, next to the Union Pacific,
was In the case of the Louisville & Nash
ville, whose Increase was equal to 9.7 per
cent. The Northern Pacific' Increase was
equal to 1.2 per cent and that of the New
Haven to 8.J per cent. The St. Paul's per
centage Increase of 2.4 per cent was the
lowest. ,
The New Haven's passenger earnings con
stituted the largest percentage of total gross
of any of the roads, the percentage being
43.48 per cent, as compared with 40.04 per
cent ror the year ended June SO, 190T.
In the compilation of these figures, which
constitute, probably, the most absolute
argument for the success of the 2-cent fare
and pass elimination. It Is notable that they
are not selected or segregated figures, but
are taken from the reports of railroads
whose lines touch the Atlantic and Pacific,
the Gulf of Mexico and the Dominion of
Canada, and criss-cross the country north
and south and east and west In fact, lines
that cover the territory affected by the
new order of things.

Bill" McCune, head usher and Indian In
terpreter for Buffalo Bill, has joined the
Alllson-Daugherty Consolidated shows, now
having a week's run st Thirty-ninth street
and Dewey avenue.
Mr. McCuno has been awsy on a vsratlon
because of Illness and dropped Into Omaha
last week to recuperate. The engagement
was offered to him by Charles Allison, gen
eral manager of the Wild West show, and
Mr. McCune accepted on the spot. No con
sideration was mentioned.
It has Buffalo Bill's circus away to the
bad," said Mr. McCune. "I have sent
Colonel Cody a full set of pictures showing
the general plan of the cirrus In the hope
that he may get some suggestions from the
Omaha Circus company.
"Personally I think tho Alllson-Daugherty
circus superior to anything which I have
seen recently and I have written to my old
friend Raln-ln-the-Bsrrel and his wife.
Squaw Kick - a - Hole - In - the - Sky, ask
ing them to Join the show at Omaha."
Mr. McCune says he could take the "kid"
circus on the road and give a better show
and make more money than the average
wagon show made during tho nineteenth
century. He regards It as a better paying
proposition, considering the money Invested,
than the Buffalo Bill show and may get
the colonel to appear at the Omaha Wild
West show next week If the circus holds
together that long.

When the blood is pure and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth, and free from
til blemishes and eruptions ; but when some acid humor takes root in the circulation,
its presence is quickly manifested by some form of skin disease. The skin receives
its necesaary nourishment and strength from the blood. When, however, this vital
fluid becomes a humor-laden stream, it CAn no longer preserve the healthy, natural
appearance of the skin, but by its acrid, impure nature continually irritates and inflames
the delicate tissues and fibres and keeps the cuticle in a diseased and disfigured condi
tion. External applications cannot reach the blood, and therefore are beneficial only
for their ability to reduce inflammation, and assist in keeping; the parts clean. To cure
any skin trouble the blood must be purified of the humors that are causing the trouble.
S. S. S. drives out the humors from the blood so that the skin, instead of being irritated
and diseased, is nourished by a healthy, cooling stream. S. S. S. goes down into the
circulation and removes every particle of impure matter, all acids and humors, and
restores the blood to its normal, pure condition, thereby curing every form of skin

Vice President Kennedy of the Missouri
River Navigation congress, has called a
meeting of the vice president and officers
of tho congress to meet in Sioux City,
Thuisday.
Mr Kennedy lives In SIojx City. He Is
vice president for Iowa. He called the
meeting "In the absence of the president."
The president Is Edgar C. Ellis of Kansas
City, but he did not happen to be In SIojx
City, so Mr. Kennedy called the meeting
and Mr. Call, the secretary, who lives
up the river, advised the calling of the
meeting. It has also bein proposed that
another congress be held this year instead
of waiting until next January. Such a
move Is orposed by the "down river" en
thusiasts, but seems to be favored by the
Sioux City vice president ami the Sioux
City secretary.
Vice President F. D. Weud of Omaha
says the meeting has been called for Sioux
City, but further than that would not dis
cuss the proposition. He was somewhat
surprised that "Vice President Kennedy
sheuld call a meeting "In the absence of
the president" when Mr. Ellis has been In
Kansas City since the week aftor con
gress adjourned.
Some feeling txlsts between the various
factions interested In the development of
the Missouri river. Some contend that
there was no excuse for Mr. Kennedy's
action In calling the meeting, while his
friends consider he had a right to do so "In
the absence of the president."
U. C. Call for Congress.
Since his election as secretary of the
Missouri River Navigation congress, George
C. Call has been talked for congress to
succeed E. H. Hubbard, the present con
gressman, who outlined his policy for tha
river when speaking In Omaha. Mr. Hub
bard I for embankment work. Mr. Call la
said to be for general Improvement and
opening of the channels without reaard
to tha embankment work. There la gen
eral regret that Bloux City Is pushing the
movement into politics.
President Ellis Is confident that some
thing will be done by the next congress to
open the Missouri river. In a letter sent
out he says:
If we keep up the fight, congress will
at the next session authorize the develop
ment of a channel from this city to St.
Louis. Success Is In sight and this or
ganization will he a factor. I must have,
and therefore will get 1,000 members In the
two cities. The money Is needed for tha
purpose shown in the statement sent out.
want to show the up-river communities
that Kansas City is still at It; that we
will not let up until the stretch of river
below us Is put In such shape that our
merchants will not bo required to operato
bouts, but transportation companies will
be formed for profit, and we are reudy to
co-operate In a program that will eventuate
in the Improvement of the entire river. I do
not want to lay further burden on our busi
ness concerns, and so am simply asking for
personal memberships sufficient to make up
the funds needed, and enable us to take
the part we ought to play.
