r.UAN-The annual Gilmore picnic near
Modal yesterday was attended by 14M0
reductions In some Instances and In the
revision of the clarification strict atten
tion has been paid to making It conform to
commercial conditions and practices. One
Innovation will be the dropping of the
tern "not otherwise specified.' which will
be superceded by the use of the term 'not
otherwise Indexed by name.' The new
classification will have an Index so com
plete that any difficulty In locating a com
modity will be impossibie and tbe shipper
will not have to locate a general heading
and then hunt for a specific Item througn
several pages aa heretofore.
Preaaleat Mew There.
Western Jobbing Interests were strongly
represented. Kansas City by H. G. Wil
son, commissioner Commercial club; St.
Joseph by It. G. Krake, commissioner Com
mercial club; Sioux City by George T. Bell,
commissioner traffic bureau; Omaha Ly
i. M. Guild, commissioner Commercial
club, and Denver by F. W. Maxwell, aetre
tary Colorado Manufacturers" association.
These i ooied their Interests and being
vitally Interested In over fifty subjects,
divided them equally among the five repre
sentatives, so that each man fpoke to only
ten or a doiten and spoke for all five points
in that duplication waa avoided and belter
, results obtained.
In the interest of Omaha Jobbers and
manufacturers were presented the folluw
ing five basic principles:
Opposition to all li-ss than carload re
ductions where nu t oi i et-pond.iifc reduction
is mad In the carload rating.
Objection to any extension of the mixed
carload prlvluge.
Approval of as high minimum weighta a
can reasonably be loaded in a car and p
ponirlon to the lowering of miiiiinuras in
genera).
Objection to the elimination of I.. C. I
and C. L. ratings now carried and the sub
stitution of "any quantity" ratings.
' Objection to the cancellation of any car
load rating except where such c "ncei aiion
is baed on no general curluad movement.
"With but a very few exceptions these
were the only western centers represented.
the large attendance being from eat of the
Mississippi river. The great majority were.
therefore, seeking changes advantageous
to their section, but generally inimical to
tha western trade. The committee placed
no time limit or. the presentation of sub-
ts, but showed a desire to get to the
bottom of every one and learn a:i of the
factors that enter Into classification mak
ing. The conclusions of the committee will
be awaited with much Interest.
"While attending the rrweting all mem
bers of tha National Industrial Traffic
league and a lare number of other ship

session for several days analysing the pro-

some, disapproving others and recommend

John S. O'Connor, lawyer, capitalist and
long-time democratic war horse, has re
turned from a fishing trip to Saratoga
Springs, Wyo. Ha was accompanied by bis
son and they caught speckled trout until
they were tired of pulling them In.
"But they won't allow you to carry any
away," said sir. O'Connor, "and 1 greatly
regret wa could not have brought a few
meases home to our friends."
Speaking of meases, Mr. O'Connor let
It be understood that be will not attend
the democratic state convention at Fre
mont next Tuesday.
"No. I am not going." bo said. "1 am a
man of peace, and my greatest pleasure
to see all tha brethren dwell together In
grace and unity. In tha old days tba demo
crats were tbe exemplars of tha vary beat
citizenship, and aa ia well known wa al
ways managed It so that harmony waa the
expected thing In our conventions. Now,
tho other policy seems to prevail, and the
fussy controversialists Jumped Into the
. limelight at every opportunity. So I will
ingly forego the Joy 1 might otherwise
I feel at the chance to participate In
democratlo convention, and will awiat re
sults In calmness and with an open mind.
I understand, though, several oratorical
gladiators will be present to touch off a
few remarks thai may add to the pleas
ure of tha observant people, especially the
republicans."
It has been expected that Ignatius Jeho
vah Dunn would be present at Fremont and
ready to sound the loud tocsin for Bryan,
and against bis one-time pals of Douglas
county. If the occasion arose. But Mr. 1
Dunn, although on the list of delegates,
has hied him away to the fishing gTounds
of Northern Wisconsin, where ho expects
to stay until after the August primaries
have been fought. He was present when
tbe list of delegates for Fremont was pre
sented by the commutes of tho Dahlman
democracy; but his friends Intimate he has
become so disgusted with recent develop
ments In his beloved party that he will
let the other fellows fight It out without
his assistance. Like John O'Ccnnor, Dunn
Is a man who loves peace and quiet, and
would rather be stung, bitten and marked
by the husky skeeters of the Wisconsin
marshes than take a chance with tha po
litical chlggera likely to be in evidence
at Fremont on Tuesday next.

Cephalopoda, what are they?
No one aeems to know Just exactly, ex
cept Samson, lord high chamberlain to h!
majesty. King Ak-Sar-Ben. and oven In
fear of less majeate some have been bold
enough to broach the theory that In this
specific matter of the Cephalopoda his as
sumption of knowledge is also more or
less of a bluff
In any caso tho Cephalopoda are to be
one of the numerous attractions at next
fall's carnival, which opens thia year on
September ST. to run tha nsuar ten days.
Whether It be Ignorance or only the eternal
policy of mysterious silence In all affairs
of tho realm that bridles the tongue Of
tha chamberlain, he keeps his own counsel
In tba weighty matter of the Cephalopoda
and all the subjects of tbe ruler of Qulvera
must wait until the carnival before their
curiosity can be assuaged.
Under tbe relentless questioning of a
group of reporters the chamberlain did re
lent enough to furnish the single crumb of
Information that the Cephalopoda were !
pound monsters from Panama. The con
tract waa signed but recently with the
keepers of tho strange beasts. I
In addition to tbe above-mentioned mon
sters, Samson has many other entertain
ment projects tinder consideration that
promise to make tho carnival a banner
one. Ia a number of Instances the con
tracts have already been signed.
A featura will bo a number of alligator tn
euhators from which, so tho promise runs,
tittle baby crocodiles will be hatched every
dsy.
Fearless Woaaan Aeronaut.
Another Is Dorothy DeVonda, heralded
far and wide as the fearless woman bal
loonist. She promises to make ascensions
every dsy with dogs, rats or fowls, as the
case may be, tn her arma. In tho latter
matter she has the proviso, "tha humane
society permitting."
"Baby Jim." tho Gargantuan negro who
Is said to balance the scales at 7M pounds,
liked Omaha so well last fall that he has
promised to return this year.
Captain Tiebor. with his trained seals,
that have proved so popular an attraction
everywhere, will be there: also Francis
Williams' dog. pony and monkey circus.
And what la more, Samson says that the
Cephalopoda are only one of many more
attractions yet to come.

started
One little rent In her embroidered shirt
waist prevented Miss Freda Walls of 3
Boyd street from carrying out a plan to
elope with Willis Meredith, son of a. W.
Meredith of 301 Atlantic avenue. Brooklyn.
The little rent, or rather a shirtwaist that
buttoned up the back, waa responsible
for tho young elopers getting arrested
and later being; sent homo.
The couple decided to go to New Cum
berland. W. Va., and get married unknown
to their parents. Walking down Fifth ave
nue, young Meredith discovered a rent In
Miss Walla' shirtwaist.
"It will never do to ret married In that
Shirtwaist. Wa must hurry and xet as.
other one and then for tho train and the
wedding bella." ho said.
They went to a Fifth avenue store. So
anxious were they to make tho train that
Mlas Walls Just selected one and did not
notice where tha buttons were located.
She then went Into tho ladles' retiring
room In the Fifth Avenuo arcade. Her
nance waited on the outside. Suddenly
there was a shrill sound from behind tho
curtains: "Oh. Willis, come and help me;
this shirtwaist buttons up the back."
Willis was on the Job, all right. So was
the lady In charge of the retiring room.
She refused to allow him to enter. Ho
persisted, and Miss Walla declared she
would not have anyone Interfere with
Willis.
Tbe woman in charge called an officer
and tba young- elopers were hustled to
central station In a patrol wagon. Young
Meredith finally secured his home on tbe
telephone. His uncle, Thomas Meredith,
later called and put up a forfeit for his
release on a charge of disorderly conduct.
Ho would not do aa much for Miss Walla.
Several hours later someone called and
put up the necesarry S30 to secure her
release. She Bald:

remain In hero while he went away. I
would not marry him sow." Brooklyn

fgr
Mid-Summer Prices That Create a Desire to Buy
THE first three weeks of our July sale brought greater results than we
expected. The hot weather, we thought, would keep buyers at home.
So it did to an extent, but the bargains we offered brought forth the most
reluctant we actually created a desire to buy. Our prices were so low that sagacious buyers could not resist them.
fWlTDID MUCH MORE BUSINESS THAN ANYONE COULD HAVE ANTICIPATED FOR JULY, AND WE
PLEASED HUNDREDS OF CUSTOMERS.
Just another week of this sale remains we have cut prices on new articles and expect the largest week's busi
ness of the year. You will wait a long time before you will witness another sale like this week's. We recognize that
buyers insist on big cuts for hot weather we have done deep enough cutting to satisfy the most hard-to-suit. Those
beautiful and substantial furniture pieces have received the lowest possible prices consistent with the honest policy
of a reliable house. On rugs, linoleums, curtains and draperies, in some instances, the prices have gone to actual cost.
We will not need to argue if you will inspect these goods and their prices. You cannot leave this store without com
menting on the wonderful values in that handsome furniture, pregnant with historic sentiment; in those soft, har
moniously colored rugs; and in those cool-looking draperies.
