Freight Cars Rushed to
Grain Belt of Central West
Figures given out by the local rail
road war board indicate that during
the last ten days more than 7,000
additional empty freight cars have
been hurried to the south and south
west to take care of the movement
of the crop that ha recently been
harvested and also to facilitate the
movement of lumber.
A compilation of figures shows that
since May 1, or since the war board
ordered the pooling of freight cars,
regardless of ownership, o that ab
normal freight conditions might be
met, 113,420 cars have been distribu
ted to points where most needed.
Under the provisions of the latest
order, looking to the distribution of
freight cars, 2,450 have been sent out
into the grain producing area of the
central west to check any car short
age when the grain commences to
move toward the markets. In this
distribution only two of the local
roads become beneficiaries. The Wa
bash gets 500 and the Illinois Central
350.
Omaha Citizens Asked
For Two Cars of Books
"We must have more books at
once," is the word issued from the
public library. "We just received a
telegram calling for two carloads of
books for the army, to be shipped at
once. The people of Omaha re.
sponded very liberally on our first call,
but we are still considerably short to
fill an order of this size. We would
like to have The Bee inform the peo
ple that we can use all of the books
they bring in. The men in the army
are very anxious to secure books to
read."
School Teachers Are to
Hold Meeting Monday
"Constructive criticism" was the
keynote of a short talk addressed by
Superintendent of Schools Beveridge
to the supervisors of the public
schools.
The supervisors were directed to
prepare their schedules so that as few
of them as possible shall attend any
school in the same day.
A general meeting of all of the
teachers will be held at 9:30 Monday
morning in the auditorium of Central
High school.
Another New High Mark
Is Established for Silver
New York, Aug. 30. Bar silver's
steady advance was unbroken today,
the metal being quoted here at 90H
cents an ounce, almost 1 cent more
than yesterday's highest figure.
Bilious Attacks.
You wonder what upset your stom
ach. Never felt better in your life
yesterday now you have a bad bil
ious attack. Cure that first, then look
for the cause. Keep quiet, abstain
from food for one day, take three of
Chamberlain's Tablets. Drink plenty
' of water. This will clean the ferment
ing food and bile out of your stomach,
tone up your liver and move your
bowels. You will soon be all right
again. If you have these bilious at
tacks at irregular intervals, abstain
from coffee and red meats and you
may avoid them. Advertisement.
RAILROADS CDT OFF
MILLIONSOF MILES
Conservation of Passenger
Equipment Results in An
nual Saving of 25,000,
Miles, Says Winchell.
Soon after the United States en
tered into the European war the rail
roads inaugurated the plan of cutting
off passenger trains without materi
ally impairing the service and, accord
ing to B. L. Winchell, chairman of
the committee on transportation, the
mileage has been reduced nearly 25,
000,000 miles per annum.
Mr. Winchell adds that at this time
passenger traffic is at the maximum
and that during his many years of
railroad experience he has never seen
it so heavy. He attributes this to the
fact that all through the country the
commercial activity is tremendous;
thousands of people parents, wives,
sweethearts, brothers and srsters
are making trips to the soldiers'
camps ana cantonments to visit the
men prior to their going to France;
special trains are daily carrying thou
sands of workmen to and from their
work i.t the military camps.
Mr. Winchell predicts that further
reductions will come in the passen
ger service, but as to the extent he is
unable to predict. He says that a
subcommittee is considering the con
servation of sleeping car service.

Boys Go to State Fair
. As Guests of Management
County superintendent of .schools
has selected seven boys to represent
Douglas county at the state fair as
guests of the state agricultural board.
They are Arthur Agee, George King,
Ralph Thomsen, Milton Vasack, John
Otto, Henry Wiese and Clarence
Wicse. The boys will go to Lincoln
Sunday and remain there during state
fair week.
Sergeant Hater Has Fought in
Twenty-Six Battles for the U. 5.
Sergeant Edward B. Harer, of the
machine gun company of the "Fa
mous Fifth," now at the armory,
won't get frightened at his first bat
tle in ranee, for he has already been
in twenty-six battles. He served in
the Spanish-American war with the
state of Washington volunteers and
was in the islands shortly after the
taking of Manila. His first battle
was at Santa Anna, in the islands.
There he says, the Filipinos em
ployed a mild manner of trench war
fare. "But we soon got them out of the
ditches," he says.
He thinks the boys from the United
States will be able to get the Ger
mans out of theirs, too, once they
get over to France.
In the last few weeks Colonel
Grant and his staff at the Omaha
supply depot have outfitted 40,000
soldiers, including most of the Dem
ing troops and those at Fort Snel
ling. The district supplied by the Omaha
depot includes five states, Nebraska,
Iowa, Minnesota, North and South
Dakota. All the supplies for troops
in these states come from the Omaha
depot, including uniforms, shoes,
blankets, cots, provisions, etc. Most
of these were purchased in Omaha.
As all of these 40.000 men were
clamoring for attention at once it can
be easily seen why there has been no
rest for the quartermaster's staff for
many weeks. Sunday Colonel Grant
and Major Maher took a few hours
to move up to the Army building, this
being the only time they could spare
for the work. The depot also shipped
384 tons of supplies to Deming and
other points in the district that day.
"But that was a light day for us,"
said Colonel Grant. "We usually
ship between 400 and 500 tons a day."

marching down Fifteenth street and a
company of Red Cross nurses about
to start for the front.
First Sergeant T. N. Dillon of the
machine gun company, Fifth Ne
braska, is on detached service at Fort
Snelling now. His place is being
taken by Sergeant Stewart Doig.
Captain Brome of Company A of
the Sixth is congratulating himself on
tic fact that he has an experienced
secretary in his ranks. David R.
Marvin, the company clerk, who is
acting as secretary to Captain Brome,
was formerly secretary in the man
ager's office of the Union Pacific railroad.
