President G. W, Wattles of the street
railway company has petitioned the city
council to pass art ordinance making It
a misdemeanor untshable by fine nnd Im
prisonment for any person t mliuis a
transfer. Ha says such an ordinance was
considered a long time ago and should
have been passed but wan not.
Mr. Wattleit deolared th street railway
company la losing thousands si sou an
because patrons mates double use of
transfers. lie submits an ordlnanoe to
cover the case. This ordlnano pro-rides
that any one making uae of such a trans
fer or siring it to some other person or
attempting to rtde on it ton minutes after
he has arrived at the place of transfer
Is liable to a fine of tS and a Jail sen
tence of twenty days. The ordinance
has been referred to the committee of
the whole.
"It Is a notorious fact." raid Jtr. Wat
tles In a communication accompanying
the ordinance, "that the street railway
company and Incidentally the fltty of
Omaha is being dally defrauded by a
largq number of people, some of ihsm
prominent citizens, in the misuse of trans
fers on our system. The olty of Omaha
rccortirs an occupation tax of S par cent
on the gross reoelpts of this company
nnd thereby Is Interested financially the

fradulent use ii transfers."

nays:
"We desire to have It passed now that
we are Increasing our efforts to comply
with tho demand for more service during

Accompanying the ordinance and the
letter is an raoerpt from an article In
The Bee declaring In part:
"In one place the company has been
unfairly treated In the matter of trans.
fe-rs and rightly complains thst It is
being cheated out of upwards of U.000 a
month by people who use transfers for
riturn trlna.
"In requiring the company to put on
more cars and run them at closer inter
vals at rush hours, the council should fix
a penalty upon passengers defrauding the
company by misuse of transfers."

Engage in Business

A party of twenty Greeks from Denver
went east through Omaha en route to
New York yesterday. They expect to
arrive In Now Tork in time to ship for
home next Monday. They all belong to
the reserve force.
Anton Borarrls. spokesman for the
party, said that In the disposition of the
territory to be taken from Turkey,
Greece ought to get a section half as
large as Colorado and In the event that
it does, many of the Greeks who have
gono from the United State to their
native land will remain there.
Boaarrls says that since coming to
America the Greeks have been taught
' modern methods In fruit raising nnd ac
j rlculturu nnd that applying these moth-
ods In Greece, vast new opportunities will
be opened to them.

ROCK ISLAND PLANNING
LONG. SLEEPER SERVICE
Beginning November JO, In connection
with the 9oo, Northwestern and Missouri
Pacific, the Rock Island will Inaugurate
tnrougo stanaara sleeping car service Be
tween Winnipeg and Los Angeles. This,
It Is said, will be tha longest continuous
through car service rontc In the world,
nearly 5,000 miles.
The BervJco will be through Omaha.
The cars will run from Winnipeg to St.
Paul over the Soo line, from St. Fattl
to Omaha over the Northwestern, from
Omaha to Kansas City over the Missouri
Paclfla and from Kansas City to Los
Angeles over the Rock Island, being at
tached to the road's Oolden State llmitd
train. h
A party of naval officers were on s
special car coming from a Philadelphia
wedding. Thay were In the glory of full
dress uniform. At a Junotlon the train
stopped,-) wjng to some minor-accident,
and the officers, manlike, dismounted to
look at the machinery and find out what
was wrong. Just then a whistle blew and
several hundred girls trooped out of a
big factory near the tracks. Of course
they spied the glittering group of man
and gathered In groups, laughing with
flirtatious Intentions which the officers
were not slow In responding.
But soon the train began to move and
the men entered waving farewellg. Pay
master Simpson, one of the Apollo of
the navy, wns the tact man to mount the
btep. Ho ralsel his hat gallantly and
stood smiling. In one of his best poses.
Whrn the car vas well on the way, one
of the girls shouted to him, "Jih, there,
Charlie 1 I choose you for the tunnel!"
Why should you why should any one, in fact, rent a piano?
A rental piano is, as a rule, a second hand piano- a cheap
instrument usually anything, in truth, that will stay half-way
in tune.
For the use of such an instrument you will have to pay
3, 4 or 5 dollars a month, as the case may be, according to
the condition of the instrument. After you have rented the
piano for months and months, and sometimes for years, the
piano goes back to the piano man.
What for?
To be rented over again to someone else. The piano man now has
not only the rental you paid him, but the piano as well.
Right here is a place for many a person hereabouts to practice thrift:
Stop renting a piano. Start
Our big inaugural club offers the opportunity and such
an opportunity as you have never had before.
At the very outset you start in a thrifty way. You save 92
dollars and 50 cents in the initial cost of the piano, as you get a
piano for257dollarsand50cents thatusually sells for 350dollars.
Next, the terms.
You do not have to pay more to own one of these splendid new pianos
than you have to pay to rent a second hand one 5 dollars cash, and then 1
dollar and 25 cents a week.
And by joining the club while you are paying, you are owning.
Every week you come in to pay you are laying up 1 dollar and 25 cents
for yourself towards your own permanent ownership of a beautiful, durable
and praiseworthy piano.
Yes we know that the terms for renting a piano have their advantages.
We know that they have in many an instance been a necessity.
But that was before we opened this big inaugural club.
Now we say and say it boldly that no one can afford to rent a piano,
when, by becoming a member of the 500 club, buying a piano is attended by
so many advantages and so much ease.
'Phone in your application. Do it tomorrow. Then the first day you
are down town you may come in and make your selection.
And if a thirty-days' trial discloses that you have made a wrong move
we will give you your money back.
What more can we do than this?
Figures thowing the economies
and thrifty features of the club
