S. McNally of Oklahoma City, for twelve years with the Rock Island In Omaha, Is slated as the successor to U. 8. Pentacost, who goes to Kansas City as assistant general passenger agent, as divi sion pasm-nger agent In this city. lis left Omaha In 1902. In the Hock Island offices at Kansas City there will be a vacancy January 1, owing to the resignation of U. B. Albright, who is to become general manager of the Wichita Stock Yards company. R. U. Brown of Minneapolis and C. O. Jennings of Chicago, both assistant general freight agents, are said to be candidates for the office of "eneral freight agent at Kansas City. Marital differences In the Rock Island Frisco family have now fully extended to OtSiiha and t.ie divorce of the two systems will mean the actual separation of the bus iness Interests of the railroads. This means that the St. Louis & San Francisco, the Chicago & EaMcrny Illinois and the Kvans ville & Terre Haute railroads will not, for the present, be represented In Omaha. In the freight department of the local offices there probably will be but one change. Although no appointment haa been made as yet It Is expected that freight business of the Frisco system will be con ducted by a traveling freight agent. The Rock Island will handle Frisco freight only as a tributary line, the same as other rail roads. . As a result of the dissolution ot the Rock Island and Frisco interests it Is said there will be In the neighborhood of 1D0 appoint ments In the ranks of operating officials. This will mean promotions for scores of men In the service of the two systems. Cigarette Smoker is Run to Earth He is One Man Not, Allowed in the Corn Exposition, and Posse Gets Him. Mike Dempsey, sergeant of police of Omaha and mighty chief of the National Corn exposition polk-e anJ detective forces, led the search. Detectives and policemen stealthily tip toed down the aisles of corn and looked carefully under the stalls. They waited In quiet corners, gun and club in hand. The villain was like to be discovered at any moment. A big detective strode out and laid his hands on the culprit at last. Caught red handed! Patience and perseverence had been rewarded and the cigarette smoker who defied exposition regulations had been run to earth. He was thrown into ' the expo bastlle and will never again see the "maklns" or the light of day. It was the first "pinch" at the show. WIIF.RE TO EAT. WHERE TO EAT.

BennctTs COUNTY BOARD WRANGLES OVER HOSPITAL SCANDAL BrniHnsx Is Accused of Trying to Shift Responsibility English's Of- flee Represented. The Board of County Commissioners ngain wrangled Saturday dver the county hospital scandal. Resumption of the case by the commissioners and the official ap pearance of the county attorney's office marked the early developments of Satur day. Friday afternoon, the board white washed and dismissed Miss Lena Hlgglns, Dr. Bert Torgusen and 'E. R. Seasongood. This action was confirmed by vote Satur day. Miss Hlgglns was a vlsitoi' before the bond meet at Its rooms at the court house. She consulted with Commissioners' Tralnor and Grant, who are her earnest support ers. The verdict of Friday she would no discuss with any one else. Commissioner Plckard was thoroughly de termined that Miss Hlggins shall not be re-Instated. Lined up with him was Jeff W. Bedford, Jr., and Fred Brunlns will vote with them on this point. Bruning can not talk of this phase of the matter long, fot he returns each time to his suggestion "that the Whole matter be referred 'back to the medical staff," a proposition which he advanced at least twenty Hmos Friday. His colleague then told him he was try ing to shift responsibility. Commissioner Tralnor's resolution, which was defeated 3 to 3, contained a statement that "the whole conduct of the hospital be more thorough and circumspect, that patients may opt suffer from neglect and inattention." County Attorney English said with ref erence to the scandal: "We have been talking to the medical staff and Mr. Magney Is devoting his per sonal attention to the alleged crime com mitted at the hospital." The one word exactly fitting the condition confronting our tuners, polishers and team sters during the past ten days, Just now we are ngain where we can see daylight. Announcement in The Sundav Bee a week ago of our GOLDEN" ANNIVERSARY PIANO SALE-stating our determination to clear our floors of every piano before Christmas met with such unexpected response from wideawake-piano-buyers ns to completely carry us off our feet and demoralize our regular arrangements for handling this which is the largest piauo business of the West.

A deputy sheriff's badge la not a guar anty of security and this fact M. B. Thomp son, one of Sheriff Brailey's deputies at Florence, has discovered.

The china had been stored In barrels and placed in the barn, which was locked up. He was led to examine his own property by a message from South Omaha, where a negro named William Strphenson had been arrested, having in his possession nu merous pieces of china ranging through the whole category of dining room articles. The negro said he cam from Florence. Officer Jake Small found hlra carrying the dack' full of china about ( p. rn. Friday and landed the man In jail on su.plclon. Saturday morning, taking the tip that the man cam from Florence, the- 8,utM Oit.aha police warned Sheriff Brailey and he called up the Florence deputy and told him to make Inquiry to see if any of the residents had lost china. He, knowing that some negroes who had worked on the ce ment gang had occupied the barn for a few days as sleeping quarters, went at once to examine his own property, and ni'ed-d no further search. He and Mis. Thompson went at once to South Omaha and Identified the missing cnina, and a' clear case la thought to be made against Stephenson.
