The heaviest rain on the Burlington
system was on the Brush-Alliance line,
jMt-l over in Colorado, south ot Sidney.
There the rain assumed proportions of
a, cloudburst, attaining a depth of six
to ten inches on the level. Running down
the draws and valleys, near Pceti sta
tion, a long section of the grade was
washed away and forty-nine of the heavy
steel rails carried along. For a time
this Interfered with the movements of
the trains, but repairs were quickly made
and by noon the line was passable.,
' Along tne Union Pacific there were
only light and scattered showers east of
Grand Island, but from there west, as
far as Rawlins, Wyo., there was rain a
plenty. The east edge of the heavy rain
at 8 o'clock, the hour of sending in the
morning report, waa in the vicinity of
O'Fallon. From there west to Sidney it
ranged from one and one-half to two
Inches, with as much as three inches
west into Wyoming.

there was close to four Inches in many
places.
On the Northwestern lines there was
little rain west of Chadron, but from
there northwest into Wyoming and up
Into the Black Hills country there was a
Steady downpour laat night and this
morning heavy showers over the entire
Bom-steel country.
Republican County
Committee Opens
Its Headquarters
Many county committeemen visited the
Douglas county headquarters of the re
publican party yesterday in the newly
opened quarters at room 750, Omaha Na
tional Bank building. M. J. Greevy, sec
retary of the Douglaa county committee,
in in charge ot the rooms. Among the
callers Mr. Greevy says there were two
who were delegates to the bull moose
convention at Liiftoln, who gave Mr.
Greavy to understand that they would
take no further action until they saw
what the Roosevelt convention was going
to do at Chicago. They are waiting to
see whether or not they are going to be
required to leave the republican party In
order to support Roosevelt.
The secretary has had the sign painted
en the door of the rooms. The question
' has come up whether or not it should be
labeled as the Douglas county committee,
but it was decided that the first allegiance
of the organization was due to the . na
tional ticket, and so the sign on the door
'reads: . .
"NATIONAL REPUBLICAN PARTY
Headquarters Douglas County Central
Committee."
""'The committee will devote its energies
to working for the re-election of Presi
dent Taft, and for the election of the en
tire 'republican state and county ticket.
Mayor Jim Learns
to Drive His Auto
"Wo-o-o." said J. C. Dahlman, Omaha's
cowboy mayor, as he drove to his of-'
fice yesterday In a new seven-passenger
automobile, purchased for him by the
city commission. "Wo-o-o, now," he
concluded as the chauffeur brought the
machine to a stop.
Mayor Jim is learning to operate the
machine himself. lie admits it Is more
, difficult to drive than a buckln" bronco.
When the mayor started out he had
. listened attentively to advice on the
proper levers to Jerk In emergency, but,
his hands are more accustomed to the
bridle reins than to a steering wheel
and he can't get used to a stationary
stirrup.

Aishton Says that ;
Business is Fine ;
and Getting Better
Vice President Aishton of the North
western came from the east yesterday
and after spending a couple of hour
Inspecting the new Jw.wO freignt aepoi
that the company la erecting at Council
Bluffs came to this side of the river, re
maining until afternoon, when he went
west to make a tour ot the South Platte
country Hnes.
According to Mr. Aishton the addlUon
to the Northwestern freight depot at Cass
street is not contemplated In the Imme
diate future, hut is coming eventually.
Just now the Northwestern, said the vice
president, la bending IU energies In figur
ing out how It U going to move tbe enor
mous grain crop recently harvested In
the western states.
Mr. Alahton la aa optimist and believes
the railroads are going to make some
money from now on. He said:''
lUifh't now everything looks very
bright and I believe that Omaha is going
to go ahead. The country Is back of It
with a splendid crop, and times ought to
be good. We are going to do our share
to help get . the crop to market, but it
the millions of bushels of grain' should
be thrown onto the market with great
rapidity no road or system of roads in
the world could handle it. AH over the
country It is Immense, and from what I
have seen and heard I don't think a yield
ot 55,009,000 bushels of wheat in Nebraska
is far out of the way."

Prominent North Bend Farmer
Relates Experience With
Mysterious Disease.
UNITED DOCTORS CURE
They Found and Removed the Cause
of Mr. Davison's xrouuic
at Once.
Every month since I comenced the
United Doctors' treatment it has been a
rleasure to report progress and improve
ment, and now, after being treated under
their treatment for five months, I am al
most entirely free from the pain in my
back and hips from which I had suf
fered so long.
"As to my stomach trouble and consti
pation, which has been of thirty years'
standing, I can say that I now have a
good . appetite and can digest my looa
better than for years and have not had
to take any bowel pills for over six
weeks, the longest time I have missed
taking physic of- some kind in twenty
five years. My kidneys are so completely
relieved that I am able to do considerable
work in the field, which is also a new
thing for me.
"My case was so complicated that per
haps that is why it fooled the other do&
tors. I paid them lots of money for treat
ment that would help me for a little
while, but I never got any permanent
relief until 1 went to the United Doctors.
"I. had given up hope of ever getting
any better, but finally took the advice of
my family who had been trying for a long
time to get me to consult with the United
Doctors, but I had thought it was of no
use. But finally I was persuaded to go
and be examined and. I saw at once that
they understood my case and they seemed
to get to the right spot at once and
commenced removing the - cause right
from the beginning. I am sure that when
my treatment is finished I will be as well
as any man could be.
"I live on Route 1, North Bend, Neb.,
and will be glad to have anyone referred
to roe who is looking for the right place
for relief and cure, as no one can make
a mistake in going to the United Doctors.
C H. Davison."
' This is only one of thousands ot cures
made by the United Doctors, who have
their Omaha Institute located on the
second floor of the Neville block, corner
of Sixteenth and Harney streets.
They treat all ourable cases of diseases
of . the stomach, kidneys, liver, blood,
heart, nerves and respiratory organs. In
cluding rheumatism. Indigestion, consti
pation, gallstones, neuralgia, skin di
seases, catarrh, asthma, epilepsy, goiter,
loss of strength,, nervousness, scrofula,
dropsy, blood, poisons, diseases of women
and diseases of men.
Consultation and examination is free to
all, but no Incurable cases are accepted
for treatment However, this fact need
not stop anyone from consulting them,
for many cases are curable by their new
system which have been pronounced In
curable by ordinary doctors.
