Thereafter tho rate will bo on each first nnd third Tuesday ' of each month? Heretofore tho homeseekcrs' rates have been taking numerous farmers out of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas arid othcr'wwU crii slates. The rate this year have ben arranged in a maimer that former objections will not apply. This year there will be no rates from any point In Nebraska. Kansas or Iowa In the Interior, the only ticket selling offices being those In tho Missouri river cities. This year the rates will not apply to tho Pacific coust Dolnls. as formorly, but will bo sold to towns In Idaho, Utah Wyoming and .Montana- They will lie In effect south und southwest, ns heretofore. Troup Finds for M'Boliald Against Peter Elsasser Judso Tronn of tho district court found Monday In favor of County Commissioner McDonald In tho suit brought 'by Peter Elsasser, ex-coilnty commissioner. The decision means that Mr. Elsasser will not receive the salary for which -ho sued and which he asserted was duo him from Douglas -county .ns a holdover commU slower. , ,,jtl, , f Wy oming Papers 'Do ' -Not Like Suggestion SohIo of the Wyoming nowspapcra are ak little ruffled at the suggestion of A, Ji, Carson, a theatrical manager, that Denver should bring 1,090 elk down from the Jackson Hole country of Wyoming to fee on exhibit fdr the Denver celebra tion in J915. Carson made the statement that 4v0D elk were starving to death tri tlie Jackson Hole cbuntry of Wyoming, and he"waa for bringing them right down to Denver, to keep them from starv ing to death. The Carbon County Jour nal, lot one, hastens to say there has been very little suffering among the wild elk In Wyoming this winter, and that there" Is a lot of hay stacked for tho bird should they need It to winter them through.- The publication adds, "Car son doe not explain, how ho proposes to gej; possession ot the 1.000 Wyoming elk, which ho suggests be taken to Denver." Omaha grain men' predicted that tho receipts would fall oft materially after the first ot the year but Instead, they are holding up much better than during former years. The corn receipts Monday were 353 cars of corn, the bulk of It coming from the Mississippi river valley. There were fifteen cars from Illinois and ten from Minnesota. Most of the corn arriving now has been sold for January delivery and la being hurried out to the south and southwest Generally It was bought since the stump In. price, so that Omaha dealers do not stand to lose on the transactions. Bossie Declares Restaurants Selling Much Watered Milk Claude F. Bossle, city dairy inspector, advocating the passing of an ordinance governing the sate of milk, told the city commission that a large number of res taurants are Belling watered milk. "Home of these restaurants sell milk 9 cents a glass and two-thirds of tho milk Is water. This ought to be stopped and thin ordinance will stop It." A similar ordinance was declared dis criminatory by tho courts and therefore unconstitutional The new ordinance, which was recommended, for passage by the council, Includes all 'public eating places. t ' The ordinance provides that all milk shall bo bottled under conditions approved by (ho city health department; that It shall be bottled at 'tho dairies or In spe cially arranged bottling rooms In the res taurants. Two More Blocks of Douglas Street to Be Opened by the City Douglas street from Twenty-fourth street to Twenty-fifth avenue will soon be opened, for the city commission has provided for tho appointment ot threo dls Interested appraisers to fix the .damages, Two. houses, a brick and a frame dwell ing, arid a bam, will bo destroyed.

Ho recom mended that damages bo scaled east and west bit Douglas and only to the alleys between Douglas and Dodgo and Kar nam and Harney on the north and south. He recommended that damage bo as sessed a far as Turner park to the west and Tenth street to tho oast pn Douglas. MANY ON HAND TO GET v LUNCH FROM MRS.

Advertlse- Kxtortlonate Interest charged, by pawn brokers will bo prohibited und the usual shyster methods of the loan sharks will be regulated by city ordinance as soon as a proper jneasure can bo, prepared nnd passed by the city commission. Judgo W, C. Lambert ot the city legal department and Attorney 194 Simon, Douglas county representative in the Jato legislature, conferred on the advisability ot an Iron-clad ordinance protecting the public from the loan sharks. Judge Lam bert said: "There seems to be no law regulating the Interest pawnbrokers may charge. The conference with Mr; Simon -was rela tive to tho regulation ot this rate." Attorney Simon, author of tho Simon loan shark law, declared unconstitutional by the courts, will personally prosecute the case, against the "blood-suckers" in the pawnbroker business. Ho will ad vise with the city legal department In the preparation of tho .ordinance and will assist city attorneys In reaching a. con clusion as to the proper irate ot Interest a loan shark, may collect. , There are approximately fifty pawn-, brokers In the city. While the fight against the Simon law was being carried jthrough the courts they operated with out a license.
