Berries, fruits ind vegetables are
plentiful, nearly all kinds of them, on
the Omaha markets now.
Currants, black raspberries and
blackberries are at their best, and if
you're going to put them up, now is
the time to do it. Red raspberries
and great big gooseberries are also on
hand. Cherries of the home-grown
variety are at their best. California
sweet cherries are cheaper than they
have been so far.-this year.
Peaches are scarce. Texas had
ne this year: neither did , Utah.
ansas and Missouri bad halt a
a op, ana LQioraao ana amoral
produced a few.
- Tomatoes are very scarce and poor
it at present. . But the home grown
'.; crop is due to appear on the market
ii. another week. Indications are
4 that this will be a big one and "love
apples will be the traditional drug
Hthe market in a snort time. -Lemons,
as the lemonade season is
now well started, are beginning to'
rise sharply in price. "The citrus asr
sociation sees to that," says the fruit
man. 'They'd rather, dump a few
thousand carloads in the Pacific ocean
than let the price come down."
Watermelons are lower priced, as
they are becoming more plentiful.
They are of fine, juicy sweeetness.
Cantaloupes are in the full bloom of
their goodness and are very reason
able in price.
Sweet corn you can have any day
at the cost of about $1 a dozen. The
ears come from Texas..
- Celery cabbage has made its first
appearance of the season on the local
markets. It is a sort of cross be
tween celery and cabbage in appear
ance, but is cooked like cabbage.
Summer squash is another new ar
rival. Beans and peas are at their
best and are plentiful and cheap.
So it is, indeed, with most of the
vegetable family, beets, parsnips, car
rots, turnips, potatoes, radishes, let
tuce, cucumbers and the rest.

Metal Workers Ends
s
heet metal- workers and their em-
oyers have reached a compromise.
rurtth a rj.mlt that the, arrtlr rnflM
,i yesterday morning.
. . About sixty men who have been out
p on strike some six weeks returned to
, work. . . .' .
,' They are to get a minimum of 50
v cents an hour for work in, the future,
a according to the agreement reached
t between a committee of the employ
ers and representatives of the strik
ers. They had formerly been getting
a minimum ot cents an uour,
while in some cases they were paid
50 cents and more.
Their demand when they struck was
for a minimum of 60 cents an hour, so
' the compromise of 50 cents is con
sidered by all to be a good give and
lake proposition in the way of a set
tlement, both sides having yielded
something.- , i . . - -, . .. .

Sheep Herder, is Hard Luck
Victim of a Cruel Fate
William Lynch, a sheep herder from
Wenatchee, Wash., is now firmly con
vinced that he is a toy of fate.
After saving his money carefully,
William decided to come east to see
the sights. On the train he encoun
tered a crew of smooth gentry who
robbed him of his savings by the
gambling route. The conductor, how
ever, made the gamblers return his
money. . . - V
Then L.yncn arrived nerc m un
and ran into N. Donaldson, colored,
906 Dodge street. Shortly afterward
Lynch found himslf ehort to the ex
tent of $250. , ; n ,
DnnaMsnn was fined $50 in police
mutt, hut that only served to al
leviate Lynch's woe , slightly, as the
$250 is still missing.-

Troops from South
Dakota Presumed
1 ToBeEnrouteHere
It is presumed that the South Da
kota regiment of the National Guard
lett Kedheld yesterday enroute to
some place in Mexico. That the South
Dakotans are traveling over the
Northwestern goes without saying, as
that road is the only one operating in
or out of Redfield. However, owing
to the order of the secretary of war
prohibiting the giving out of informa
tion relative to the movement of
troops, Northwestern officials here
are not saying a word.
The Northwestern was laying in
equipment at Redfield, and Thursday
night an engine- was steamed up to
move the train, but whether or not it
moved is not stated.

The photograph arid description of
the baby station conducted by the
Visiting Nurse association in yester
day's Bee gave a good idea of some of
the urgent work that The Bee'a fund
is helping- to do. -
When the parents or the widowed
mothers are too poor to provide the
necessary pure milk for the child's
health, the nurses draw on the The
Bee's fund.
Through this and other agencies
your money contributed to this fund
is used, carefuly and economically, so
that EVERY CENT of it actually
goes to relieve distress of the poor,
but worthy.
You gain the consciousness of a
good deed done and the babies gain
health and life when you contribute.
Send or bring your contribution o

Anotherconierencc of city officials
on the subject of remodeling the city
hall resulted in a decision to read
vertise for bids on plumbing and heat
ing changes. Two bids received were
declared to be excessive. .
Robert 'Butke's bid of $40,000 for
general work, including new eleva
tors, was conceded to be reasonable
and in all probability will be allowed
when new plumbing and heating bids j
shall have been received.
Commissioners Kueel and Parks,:
both more or less experienced in
plumbing work, engaged in a polemic
regarding the ability of a plumber
bidding on remodeling work to know
the exact locations of pipes or to
know with any certainty what propo
sition he will encounter in the
changes. . i
Mayor Dahlman insisted that new
elevators should be installed without
further delay: According to bids
opened a few days ago the contem
plated remodeling would cost $54,
317.11, which is somewhat more than
the commissioners feel justified in
paying at this time.
. It is possible that the elevators may
be installed and the heating arrange
ments completed this year and other
work done during the early part ol
next year.
