of the exhibitors who has attended a

lias all tho cities beaten when It comes
to the location of show buildings. "The
Auditorium Is Ideal for such purposes and
and I should think that tho expenditures
of 15.000 or JIO.000 inoro, by way of finish
ing It up on the Inside. Omaha would
have ono of (he best exposition build
ings In the country."
a. If. Simpson of Columbus, O., said
ho had been attending ccmont shows
olght years and he had never attended
a show outsldn of Chicago and tfew York
that could compare with this show. He
said the business ho hod done far sur
passed his expectations.

The Social Service board has clven a

diction. It has ulso been In communica
tion with other cities that hayo similar
boards. It Is the aim of tho board, after

policy as to the conduct of tho different
kinds of commercial amusements. Where

propor authorities and In every Instance
the suggestions of tho board nave boen

PARCEL POST MAY ADD TO
SERVICE FOR SMALLER TOWNS
Recommendations are being made to
tha Postofflce department At Washing
ton for a mora convenient parcel post
service for some of the smaller towns of
the stato and other states of the Four
teenth division of tho railway mall ser
vice. Assistant Superintendent Johnston
of this division Is working on some recom
niendatlons along that line.
Tha plan Is to adapt tho railway mall
service to the handling of parcel post
matter by soma of the local trains that
top at all of the small towns. Mr.
Johnston anclplpates that spring will
see a material Increase In parcel post
business due to the traffic In garden
truck and other produce.
"The automatic mall catcher on the
cars will play havoc with some of the
more fragile of parcel post matter," says
Mr Johnston, "and for that reason we
will have to provide that trains can pick
this matter up and deposit It without in
juring it"

CI. C. Goln. a ranchman from Olllctte.
Wyo,, now In Omaha, says: "It Is not
only tho stock tliat they actually kill
that makes them so destructive, but we
have to reckon also tho thousands of head
of horses and cattle that are bitten and
then escape. When a gray wolf bites a
horBo or a steer In the hip, or anywhere
else for that .matter, a Breat swelling
takes place and the flesh rots for a large
distance around tho wound.
"Many steers and horses can bo seen
In the weot that have weak, scarred und
BhrlveJed' hlpi. Vou -cai" ulways count
that us' th WorK bf . gray wolf, They
chae a herd and leap upon tho hindmost,
snapping at them wherever they can sink
In their teeth. The stronger and hardier
animals often get away from the wolves
even nftor thoy pro badly bitten. To look
at such a steer In the herd you would not
tldnk this old scar would make much
difference, but It means dollars and cents
to the rancher. When that steer ge's on
the market you have to throw off a few
cents a pound on account of the crippled
hip or flank, and maybe you even have to
sell him subject to government Inspec
tion, when there Is a possibility of the
meat being condemned, and you will oe
paid .only for the hide and bones.
"Woll, we have a bounty of TJS per head
on tho gray wolves now, but It Is hard
to get many ot them at that. The fact is
they live In the mountains and foothills,
and come down on the prairies at night to
do their work."

His constituents have always thought

was never known to refuse to listen to

with prldo since his accession to '.he
city clerkship and called attention to the
fact that he smokes frouzled stoglej,
same us he always did.
Now his friends have discovered that
Flynn has one besetting sin. While ho
