Btlsly, live wire in the moving picture game in Kansas City and the southwest, swept down upon Omaha ynterday from Dei Moines, where he was one of the principal speakers before the conven tion of the Iowa Motion Picture league, , besides making an address in the morning at a meeting of the Photo play Managers' association and Omaha Screen club at the Hotel Rome, Mr. Ualsly found time to visit the majority of the local theater and renew his acquaintance with several Omaha advertising men. The Missouri film man U alwaya eagrr to reverse the "show me" for mula, being always ready to do most of the showing himself. He has moving picture statistics at his tongue's end and can produce facts to show that Nero' little Ro man bonfire was a tame affair com pared to some of the thrill pro duced in the features he represent. "Did you know that there are more than 31)0,000 people employed in the moving picture business and that 35,000 of them are actors; and do you know that there is over $500,000,000 tied up in the business in this coun try: and that there are 21,000 moving oicture theater in the United State taking in weekly paid admission to the amount of $ 1 i,600,000, which to tal up to over $655,200,000 a year?" asked Mr. Balsly. Mr. Kalslv is with the publicity de partment of the Kansas City Feature Film company, distributor of Para mount pictures. Will Not Appoint New Union Pacific Head Until June While no one in Omaha know to a certainty, it is not believed that the successor to President Monier oi the Union Pacific will be named un til the middle of June. A special meeting of the director of the Union Pacific and the execu tive committee is to be held the last of this week or the first of next in the New York office, but it is not thought that the appointment of a new president will come up. The opinion prevails that the appointment will be deferred until the regular meeting, set for June 16. In the meantime President Mohler is as ac tive as ever in the management of the affairs of the road. He has gone on a trip over the western lines. Girl Choked to Death By Rejected Suitor , , , Aurora, 111.. May 25. Gwendolin, a 15-year-old daughter of Mr. Anna Collins, was found dead in her home here last night, and Jack Armstrong, 19 years old, the police say, has con fessed that he choked her to death through jealousy. Beside the body was found a cup of poison, which the boy said he intended to take himself had not his nerve failed him. Armstrong, whose real name is said to be Verhoye, is said to have at tempted to pursue his courtship after the girl had tired of him. Mrs. Collins found the body of her daughter lying on a couch in an un used room of her boarding house. The room was locked and the key were in the locks nn the outside. Upon information from Mrs. Collins, Armstrong was arrested a short time afterward.

Ii,, YELLOW PINE NOW IN THEJ5AND HILLS Woodruff Ball Tells of the Valuable Trees Which Are on the Foreit Reserves. MANY ACRES ARE PLANTED Western yellow pine, valuable for lumber, i now being grown on the national forests of the sand hills of Nebraska, where the government planted thousands upon thousands of trees some years ago, according to Woodruff Ball, secretary of the state forestration commission, who is in Omaha from Valentine attending the convention of the State Association of Commercial clubs. For a number of years it was thought nothing could be grown but jackpine. But now, Mr. Ball reports, western yellow pine has reen set out with apparent success and all trees are doing well. "Last year another 800 acres was set out in timber by the government," laid Mr. Ball, which now makes a total of about 3,000 acres in the Hes sey reserve, formerly known as the Halsey reserve, near Halsey, Neb. The oldest plantation of the jackpine are now from twelve to thirteen year old, and the oldest of the western yel low pine are about ten years old. Jack Pine for Fenc Post. "The idea is that when the jack pine i about fifteen or twenty years old it can be cut for fence posts. This will bring some revenue, and then there will be the western yellow pine left to develop into timber to be cut for lumber. It is wonderful what has been accomplished in those sandhills in this matter of forestration. Peo ple were slow to take hold of it at first, but it is now going to prove a wonderful thing." A new government nursery has been provided for in Cherry county known as the Niobrar nursery. The first eed were planted this year.

Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound I suffered with a displacement, and my system was In a general run down condition. I would have the head ache for a week and my back would ache so bad when I would bend down I could hardly straighten up. My sister was sick in bed for two month and doctored, but did not get any relief. She saw an advertisement of yourmed cine and tried it and got better. She told me what it had done for her, and when I had taken only two bottles of Lydia E. PinkhBtn's Vegetable Com pound my head began to feel better.

Outside of the English Bible and Shakespeare it has been the most widely sold work ever published in any language. No other work, in any language, has been continually published for a century and a half. On no other work have such enormous sums been spent for editorial preparation and for articles. No other work in the world's history has ever en listed the services of so many famous men. Of no other work of reference have more than a million sets with a total of more than twenty million volumes been sold. The eleven editions have been read and used, it is safe to say, by more than 100 million people; and possibly two or thrse times this number. This is history. Still more astonishing has been the success of the latest edition. Although the original outlay for the latest edition (a million and a half of dollars) was such that the price per set ranged from $125 to $250, more than 75,000 copies have already been sold; that is ' The Huge Outlay Involved (Tho eleven editions which have appeared at regular intervals throughout the last 14H year have cost more to produce than any other ten works (of reference or anything else) in any isn gunge and more than any twenty other works published in Englinh. The English Dictionary of National Biography has now reached its seventieth volume. The German Encyclopaedia of Lrsch and Gruber. be gun more than a century ago and still incomplete, has passed its 90th volume. The New English Dictionary, still Incomplete, has cost a huge sum, though largely a labor of love. The Century Dic tionary, the greatest work of ltskind yet published in America, lias cost to dato more than a million dollars : and there are other large works of ref erence in French, German, Spanish and Russian. And the Encyclopaedia Britannica has cost more than the ten largest of these together.) for the copyrighted New IP EdlittidDim of the Britannica the public has already paid $14,000,000 A Long Sweep of Time The beginnings of the Encyclopaedia Britannica go back to a world which would seem to us very strange a time when there were few stage coaches even in England and very few in America; when the first modest ateam engines of Watt were beginning to make England the great coal-producing country of the earth, ancf her industrial empire was being founded upon the discovery of a way to smelt iron with this same coal. George III was King and the greater Pitt Lord Chatham was Prime Minister. George Washington, Jefferson, John AdamB, were then little known leaders of the English Colo nies which sparsely settled the eastern shore of America. The only American of European fame was Bnjamin Franklin. Link-boys with torches still lighted the gentry through the murky Btreets of London. A candle was the most brilliant light that any king in Europe could boast. Most people in the Colonies wore homespun clothes. Terrible epi demics were frequent; sanitation was almost unknown and luyhway robberies abounded in all the countries of Europe. A voyage tu America required from six to ten weeks, or more; shipwrecks were msny snd a great number died en route from scurvy and other diseases. The Golden Age The Encyclopaedia Britannica, in its 148 years of existence, has seen and chronicled almost all the great inventions and discoveries which have made the modern world what it is. It was born two years after Watt took out his first patents for the steam engine, and while the spinning jenny and power loom were being perfected. Its successive editions have described the rise of England's great manufacturing industry and then that of Europe and America; the first loco motives of Stevenson ; the first steamboats of Fulton; the first steamships tocross the Atlantic: the building of the Great Kastern; the laying of the first Atlantic cable: Whitney's invention of the cotton gin; Elias Howe's sewing machine; McCormick reapers and mowers: Sir Humphry Dsvy's electric light and Faraday a momentous discovery of machine-made electricity; the first dynamos; the first electric motors: Morse's tele graph; Bell's telephone; the development of the modern piano and the mechanical piano-player; the phonograph and its wonders; the wireless telegraph and wireless telephone; the motorcar; the aeroplane; the multiplex printing machines which griiHl out newspapers at the rate of 100,000 an hour In brief, all the modern mar vels of human ingenuity which have banished famine from civilized lands and made this the richest aud most interesting period of human history. The Dritannlca's Part The Encyclopaedia Britannica has chroni cled all this progress, been contemporaneous with it. But it has been more than that ; it has deeplv contributed to this progress. We know that far back it waa the reading of articles on Electricity and Chemistry in the Fourth Edition of the Britannica which turned the mind of Faraday to scientific research. It was the articlesof Thomas Thomson in the Third Edition which made known the ideas of John Dalton which were the foundation of modern chem istry. The ideas of Malthus and of James Mill and many other great thinkers first found popular exposition in the Britannica. All the notable men of science, scholars, and men of letters from the days of Sir Walter Scott and Playfair, Thos. Young and Lord Jeffrey down to the present time have been contributors to the wiocesalvs editions. And msny of lis Innirer articles have sulieiuently been puhllahed In tifmW form.
