Cheerftrrnexx. contentment and a sumry-
dlapofcltion are valuabla asset to. anyl man,
especially to one handicapped through tna
loss of some member, of his body, or who
is incapacitated through some other mis
fortune. Huch virtues are possessed by
Frank I'seery. a laborer on the new Bran

streeia.
Eleven years ago Ussery was pulling a
freight on the Minneapolis & Omaha rajf.
road. HI train wan wrecked and th brave
engineer, who Btuck to his post, suffered
the loss of his right hand above the wrist.
But a little thing like that did not deter
I'xsery. Equipping himself with a steel
hook attachment he set about to perfect
hlmxelf In Us uxe and today handles his
right arm as well as his uninjured left.
It Is an interesting sight to watch Ussery
at work. Holding the handle of a short
j shovel In his left hand he atlcks it Into a
pue ot sand and gravel, with his right
arm and hook the shovel Is lifted and the
load thrown to any point desired.
I'sxery said hi right arm with the hook
attachment was capable of greater strength
than his left. I'siery works with a smtlo,
despite his missing hand. Ha appears
Jovial and contented and gives every Indi
cation of being able to make his way in
the world along with those who have two
hands.

In Iowa.
Although railroads running out of Omaha
were heavily taxed for freight cars during
the month of October, there is no danger
of a car scarcity In this locality. Ship
ments of grain have reached the maximum
and during the month, of November rail
road officials look for a lull. . Farmers are
now busy garnering the corn crop, which
means that there will be an Immediate
falling off In grain exports from here.
From many sections of the country,
however, come reports of car shortage and
Attorney Edson Rich, general counsel, and
J. A. Munroe, freight traffic manager for
the Union Pacific railroad, are on their
way to Pittsburg where a case has been
called before the Interstate Commerce
commission. Crutchfleld ft Woolfolk. deal
ers in fruits and vegetables In the Smoky
City, have called the attention of the gov
ernment to the shortage of cars In that
vicinity, asking that authorities take ac
tion in securing freight cars. In Colorado
the fruit shippers of the western slope,
Including Grand Junction, Delta,. Frulta,
Alamosa and Montrose, are alarmed over
conditions owing to a ear famine on the
Rio Grande and Colorado Midland railways.
W. W. Johnson, assistant general freight
agent for the Union Pacific railway in
Omaha, states that the greatest demand
for cars la about over. The Interstate
Commerce commission can do nothing In
ths case except by notifying railroads by
correspondence of the great demand for
cars. Omaha has been particularly for
tunate In securing good shipping sen-ice.
Watch Iowa Case.
Omaha shippers are viewing with Interest
the progress of the case Instigated by the
Iowa Corn Belt Meat Producers' associa
tion against the Iowa roads. Testimony in
th case was completed in Chicago Mon
day afternoon before th Interstate Com
merce commission, and arguments are to
be made at Washington the first two weeks
in December.
Regrouping of the Hawkey state Into ten
districts, with rates ranging from 19 to 234
cents per 100 pounds on live stock, will
probably result from the complaint of the
meat producers' association. Monday the
railroads filed a petition with the Interstate
Commerce commission objecting that the
proposed rates were too low.
in the office of Judge W. D. McHugh
In Omaha, railroad counsellor, there are
now ,000 typewritten pages of testimony
In this famous case, including 800 exhibits.
Trains Haae Across Continent.
Ixcal railway officials and employes are

special trans bound from Seattle to New
Tork, containing almost priceless cargoes
of silk.
One of the trains, a Chicago, Milwaukee
& Puget Sound flyer, which left Tacoma
Sunday night with silk valued at $330,000.
was expected to pas through Omaha al
most any time Monday night. The other
flyer Is racing eastward ovr the Northern
Pacific route, and carries a shipment val
ued at $360,000.
In reality th speed contest really began
In Japan, for the Individual cargoes were
borne across the Paclfto ocean In separate
steamer. The Milwaukee road ha given
It special right of way over all other
traffic In hope of discharging It freight
In New Tork In advance of the Northern
Pacifle line, a the latter had a handicap
ot nearly twenty-one hour at Seattle by
the early arrival of It steamer.
