THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: NOVEMBER 18. 1S17.
OMAHA PLANS AN
INDUSTRIAL CENTER
.Realtors Say City Well
Situated for Such De
velopment at This
' Tinie
The requirements that ro to make
up a successful real estate man in this
day are many more than a few years
ago. As an instance, a prominent
realtor has found it necessary in plan
ning for a large industrial proposition
to make a study of the industrial sit
uation in other cities. He has accumu
lated a library of reports and surveys
showing the latest developments in
industrial investments in all the lead
ins' cities of the country.
Trackage property and improve
ment, in the way of paved streets,
sewerage, water, buildings that will
accommodate a number of industries,
proximity to sufficient population to
' furnish labor, and other factors that
go to make up a modern industrial
nlant. lie has now well in mind, and
well in hand, through pamphlets, re
ports, pictures ana statistics mat nc
lias gathered. , , i
Under the stimulus of this investi
gation, this realtor states that, in the
near future he will announce one of
the largest and most up-to-date de
velopments of this kind Omaha has
ever seen. - For business reasons the
details cannot now be made public. It
is conceded, by those ho have made
any special study of this line of in
vestment that Omaha is unusually
well situated for- such development,
not only in the railway situation and
the fact that the city is one of the
most central in the country, but in its
topography there arc many advan
tages. .
One lack is stifltcient population
to man the industries. It has been
said for a long time that Omaha's
factories employ more people than
f)rnaha can furnish, and therefore
have to be located in surrounding
towns. This weakness in the situa
tion will he overcome in due time
and after the country becomes more
familiar, with Omaha's needs in this
direction. ' ,
Ed Slater is Resting .
At Excelsior Springs
Ed M. Slater, president of the
Omaha Real Estate board, and inter
ested in a number of real estate syndi
cates, which have kept him quite busy
in the past .year, is taking a much
needed rest at Excelsior Springs. ;
Several Large Deals
Are Now Under Way Here
Several large deals are in prospect,
feeling that 1918 will easily go ahead
of 1917 as a successful real estate year.

Of Ex-Governor of Texas
Austin, Tex., Nov. 17. Indictments
in seven cases against former Gover
nor James E. Ferguson, charging mis

ment and diversion of a special fund.

fense's contention that the indict
ments are invalid because returned

FAMOUS SCULPTOR
HAS PASSED AWAY
Auguste Eodin, After Lifetime
of Eebuff, Won Fame and
Fortune Which He Gave
to France.
, 'Paris, Nov. 17. Auguste Rouin,
the famous sculptor, is dead.
Rodin was bom in Paris in 1840.
His youth was a struggle against pov
erty, when he had left his father's
home and his early schooling to fare
for himself as an untrained sculp
tor. For several years he labored
as assistant to a maker of ornaments
then as a designer of models for the
Sevres factory and finally ata more
congenial pursuit in Brussels.
In 1877, when 37 years old, he sud
denly leaped into prominence. His
"Age of Bronze," though accepted by
the Salon, astonished the jury hy its
perfection of form and the artist was
accused of having cast it frpm the
living model. , v
In 1898 he completed his statue of
I Balzac, executed on the order of the
bociete des Gens dc Letres, which
was rejected. For fifteen years his
statue of Victor Hugo went begging
for a site in the streets- and squares
of Paris. Finally? in 1906, it was
reluctantly granted a position of
honor in the gardens of the Palais
Royal.
In his declining years Rodin
showed no trace of the bitterness that
so hard a me mignt nave ictt witn
him. In 1914 he crowned a lifetime
which he still possessed and in ad
dition the objects of ancient art which
it had taken him a lifetime to collect.

pensation! furnished by the govern
ment witnout charge, may buy gov-
leavff'his home in Paris and his works
of art as a gift to the nation, to be
perpetuated as a public museum. The
offer was accepted and Rodin gave
to- the state all of his own works
J he average amount ot insurance
applied for, counting officers and
mtn, is $8,603. Applications are com
ing in at the rate of 4,000 to 5,000 a
dav.
Vardin Would Stand For
Most Things, But Not I. W. W.
"You're a Bolsheviki and an I. V.
W.," shouted Jerome Carter, musi
cian, to B. M. Vardin, solicitor. Var
din resented the insult and a fight en
sued at Sixteenth and- Davenport
streets.
When arraigned in police court
both men made solemn promises to
cease all arguments on the war. They
were discharged. "I'm no I. V. W.
and no man can call me one and get
away with it," said Vardin after the
trial.
