Omaha" Big Festival
"Know Omha" la receiving due con
sideration at th stora of the Union
Outfitting company, where L. O. Doup
and the Omaha Furniture company have
window exhibits and demonstration!. The
L. O. Doup company has a large mat
tresa and pillow exhibit in this store. The
white, airy feathers and materials that
make up the mattresses are shown here,
and one Is able to see Just what goes
into the products of this firm and just
how tfiese article are manufactured. A
demonstrator gives the public a view
of the Inner workings of the manufacture
of these goods.
The guessing contests which are being
conducted by the various Omaha manu
facturers in many windows about the city
are causing a great deal of interest.
Thousands are said to have voted In the
different contests, and this fact Is taken
as an indication that the people ot
Omaha are interested in what is being
done by the manufacturers of this city.
In the window of the Illinois Central
ticket office in the City National Bank
building, the National Printing com
pany has an exhibit. This shows several
cards printed in various languages. For
the person guessing the correct, or near
est number of "a'a" accented and un
accented appearing In the printing in
this window, a gold watch will be given.
The Skinner Manufacturing company
has several exhibits about the city. Two
ot them are located In the Courtney and
Megeath store windows. They are well
conceived and attract much attention.
The contest of the Howard Stove Works
which is held In the A. Hospe store, Is
one that atracta many who are looking
for a good stove.
The "Know Omaha rietter" campaign
will last all this week, and during this
period everybody who Is at all Interested
In Omaha ,18 requested to visit the va
rious stores in the city and see the won
derful displays. Some of them are more
wonderful than many people have sup
oosed. -
"I did not realise that the manufactur
ers of Omaha turned out so many won
derful things," declared one woman as
she gased Into the windows of Miller,
Stewart ft Be: on company on South
Sixteenth street. "They really are doing
greater and better things here than I
ever imagined, and I am going to tee
that all my children visit the various
stores and learn Just what the factories
of Omaha are doing. I think that all
mothers and fathers should urge their
children to go down town this week and
study all the exhibits. It certainly Is
educational, and it will tend to make
them better children, give them greater
knowledge and do more for them in some
ways than the school books. After this
week I believe that Omaha children, If
their parents will send them down town
to study the windows, will know more
about their own city than the children of
any other city of similar size in the country."

Tnlon Pacific railroads and the Union
Stock Yards company to construct a

an alternative writ of mandamus com
manding the defendants to construct the
viaduct or show cause why they should
not be compelled to do so. The defendants
agreed to build the viaduct and the case
