OMAHA LIVE STOCK.
Cattle.
Tu -sday, April 30, 1889.

Iu -Suhys ADTll oV, lo'o.
Yesterdays heavy run Of cattle followed
by still heavier receipts to-day made the
buyers very wary. II being a holiday the
markets at eastern points were slow TO open
and dull aud the buyers here both packers
and shippers were in no hurry to get down
TO business. When the noon hour arrived
there had been very little trading in dressed
beef and shipping steers. In the afternoon
there was more life TO the trade and a good
many cattle were sold but at a decline of
fully 10c. Besides the heavy receipts very
pctent reason for the decline is TO be found
in the fact that cattle have been selling too
high mere in proportion to other markets
Tue shippers who have been very free buy
ers have lost plenty of money and are com
PEELED TO buy lower or go out of the market.
The supply of butchers stock was more lib
eral than it has been on au average, of late,
Tut the quality was not so good. There
were few pretty good cows and heifers but
good many that could not be called any
more than fair. \ choice bunch of heifers
sold as high as 1925. The market on this
class of stock was not materially different
from yesterday. There were three fresh
loads of northern stockers and few native
feeders. One bunch of good natives sold at
1920. There was considerable inquiry for
feeders and stockers but the demand was
mostly for good well bred cattle.

A Queer Holiday.

Although orders were issued by the gen
eral managers of the various railroads clos
ing the general offices yesterday in view of the
Washington memorial services, the heads of
departments and officials of all the roads
were hard at work as usual. Gen
eral Manager Kimball of the Union Pacific
and ms faithful assistant Tom Orr,
were manipulating manuscript as
usual Assistant General Manager
Dickinson perhaps never worked harder in
his life, and breathed sigh of relief as the
chronometer in his Office indicated the ar
rival of noontime. Superintendent Resseque,
with his assistant, the venerable p. Touhy,
and Messrs. Buckingham, Baxter, Griffin
and Llchterberger, pegged away all day at
the new train schedule, regardless of the
demonstrations that were going on outside in
memory of the man Of little hatchet and
cherry tree fame. Vice-President Holcomb
returned from his iunketing tour abroad and
spent the day in looking over accumulated
correspondence. Assistant General Passen-
ger Agent Lee was at his post, and General
Traffic Manager Melen was the busiest man
IN Omaha. In this way the officials of the
Union Pacific participated in the memorial
seryrps

Iti Very Essential.

The article in The BEE of Sunday last,
CONCERNING the local train service of the
Union Pacific. has attracted considerable at
tcntIon among the commercial centers of
Omaha That the Union Pacific has RENE
died the flaw will no doubt be received with
much satisfaction.
Ben Gallagher, of Paxton & Gallagher,
said; "Yes, it appears to me that a local
train service IS very essential on the Union
Pacific. Not alone would it be beneficial to
the merchants of Omaha and communicative
points, but it would be a money-making me-
dium for the railroad. Such service would
benefit the retail merchants and would also
be Of Importance to the wholesale dealers.
The more service we have of this kind the
better for Omaha.
A. j. .Iones-The local service is essential
to Omaha. In u complete local service the
scope of the merchants of this city is en-
larged both in the wholesale and retail lines.
The contiguous territory is dotted with
thriving little towns, and what helps the
commercial resources of Omaha will also, IN
the same light, effect the trade circles of the
surrounding country. 1t will give the imme-
diate points access to our market without
any inconvcnicnces.
ID. M. Jay-Without the local train ser
vice the trade circles OF Omaha are seriously
affected. | am pleased to learn that the IN
ion Pacific has revived the service that is so
F. very essential TO the business men of Omaha
The outlaying district Is also benefited as Il
strong market is opened up to it. The more
territory is rendered available in this way
the more staple becomes our market.

THE sew TIME CARD.
Taking Effect May 12-it Is Very Ably
Arranged.

The Union Pacific management has COM
pletcd its new tram schedule for the new
card that is forthcoming. II was decided
to-day to ,put the new card into effect Sun
day, May 12. Under the new schedule,
Omaha and points in the contiguous territory
are we'll provided for, aud 1t will no doubt be
appreciated by the travelling public as well
as by the commercial centers thus affected.
In fact, the arrival and departure of all over
land trains under the new provisions is ut
very seasonahle hour. In arranging the
card the management has taken great
pains to give Omaha "a complete day service,
and In addition, has secured direct connec-
tion with all lts connecting lines, thereby do
ing away with the tedious delay OF passen-
gers at connecting and terminal points.
Under the new management the Union Pa
citc abandons the Golden Gate special, and
substitutes u daily train service between
Omaha and San Francico. Two trains will
be run solid between Omaha and san Fran
cisco, or and after May IL. THIS was brought
about by the increase of coast traffic,
and the Union Pacifc's determna-
tion to render good service As will
be seen in the following schedule, the Union
Pacific will put on a local train between
Omaha and Granu Island. 1t will be known
as Nos. and 3. No will arrive here from
Grand Island at L. 30 in the afternoon, and
will depart at $50 the same evening. This
will give merchants of the local territory an
business, and return the same day. The new
train schedule, taking effect May IL, is as
follows:
No. will depart from Council Bluffs at
a. IN. instead of S:45, arriving at Ogden at
9:3O psn. the second day.
No. ) Denver train leaves Council Bluffs
at 10 O'Clock a. Iu., arriving in Denver the
next morning.
No /, fast train for all Utah, Idaho, Mon
tana Oregon and California points, will
leave Council Bluffs at 80 y. M; leave
Cheyenne at 10 p. M, the next day, arriv-
ing in Ogden Mt 9:i5 a m, the second day;
arrive in san Francisco at 40 p. M, second
day from Ogden.
No. Z. local, for all Nebraska points east Of
Grand Island, will leave Council Bluffs at
$3.50 p. m.
No. Al, local. for all Kansas points, will
leave Council Bluffs at 30 II. IN.
No. . east bound, slow train, from Utah
and California. with Colorado connection,
will arrive ut Council Bluffs at 155 n. m
No 4, fast train, from all Utah, Oregon,
Montana and California points, will arrive
here at 0 o'clock p. m
No. q, Denver train, will leave Denver at
$50 y. M, arriving at Council Bluffs at 4
o'clock p. m.
No. s, Nebraska, local, will arrive at Coun-
Gil Bluffs at 1890 p m NO. A., Kansas
local, will arrive at the transfer at II o'clock

said: I'VE have aimed to revise the train
service so as to accommodate all points on
our line, and this has been done. AS to
Omaha there never was n more complete ar
rangemcnt; and on through traffic we will
have direct and immediate connection. The
local train service, too will be a wonderful
auxiliary to Omaha's commercial resources -

Sheep.

There We're only two londs on the market
to-day, load of fair native Nebraskas and
load of common westerns on the Mexican or
uer. In addition to the above double deck
of sheep was received which was consigned
direct to Swift ~ Co. There is an easier
feeling on the sheep market and yet the re-
ceipts have been so light that anything
really desirable would sell well up TO former
prices.

Hogs.

The general hog market was a shade lower
than yesterday. The trade opened with the
buyers bidding about DC lower but they
raised their bids later and bought the bulk
of the hogs at si.4215m445. The trade was
rather slow owing To the reluctance of sales
men to make any concession.

A certain man, who was lately wed,
dwelt in the country far from the
noise Of any town. II CHANGED one
night hat his wife fell sick, and, be-
ing ignorant of the ways of women
folks, he mounted his cart horse and
galloped exceedingly fast toward the
town in search of n skillful leech.
On the road he met O gaunt and
withered bag, who asked him:
whittier so fast, good mani"
ITO get n leech for my wife, who is
sick unto death"
know ye how 20 tell a good doc
tort"
May, mother, l take the first which
God leadeth me to-"
Whereupon the ancient dame gave
him a sprig of Euphrasy. and said;
Hold this to thy eyes when thou
lookest at a doctors house, and thou
wilt straightway see the ghosts of
those who have died from his bung-
ling. Take thou the doctor with the
fewest ghosts"
Thereafter whenever that man came
TO a doctors house he held the mystic
herb 10 his eyes, and Oddzook a fear
full sight met his clairvoyant gaze.
Around every doctors door shivered
a CHASTITY crowd of uneasy ghosts, and
what seemed strange to that man, the
larger and more comfortable the
house, the greater were the awesome
troop at the door.
Through the deserted streets he gal
Hoped from doctors house to doctors
house, seeking in vain for one whose
gates were not besieged by uneasy
spirits. AT length, up a quiet lane, he
espied a modest house bearing a doc
tors shingle, and loi but a solitary
ghost sat upon the doorstep.
Here, by Gods grace" quoth the
man, lis the doctor for me-"
But little time had passed, 1 ween,
before that stout horse was bearing
the man and his physician along the
road to the sick woman.
When they We're well on toward the
end of their journey the doctor smiled
a pleasant smile TO see, and said:
II wonder right well by what good
chance you called ON me, for l know
1 have only been practicing medicine
two days, and your good wife will be
the second patient l have treated"

lowed is, perhaps, better omitted. +

Mr.. Frederick Law Olmsted was
travelling through Virginia aud lost
his way. Coming to a log cabin he
drove up to make inquiries. A negro
shortly made his appearance-it was
in thed days of strengthening a bat
tered hat, a red cravat and an old
dress coat, ragged and threadbare, but
adorned with new brass buttons.
He knew Mr.. Thomas w, certainly
he did, and he reckoned l ! had come
about four miles out of my way. But
no matter, he could show me a straight
road-a short cut.

enough, soon found himself bewilder-

The Language of the Sandwich Islanders
Mark Twain says of the language Of
language is soft and liquid and fex-
ible, and in every way efficient and
satisfactory-till you get mad; then,
there you are; there isn't anything in
it to swear with. Good judges all say
it is the best Sunday language there
is, but then all the other six days in
the week it just hangs idle on your
hands; 1t isn't any good for business,
and you can't work a telephone with
it Many a time the attention of the
missionaries has been called to this de-
feet, and they are always promising
they are going to ix it, but they go
fooling along, and fooling along, and
nothing is done. Troy Telegram.

1.-THE knowledge of a few plain, sim
pie rules about eye glasses would save a
world of trouble to the uninitiated. Al
ways buy spectacles in preference to eye
glasses. They are not only more COM
Portable, but their use avoids the often
unnatural presence Of common frames
upon the muscles of the nose. Never
wear rimless glasses, but use them with
frames, the reason being that the sight
of the eyes is not injured by the refrac-
ton of the rays of light on the edges.
Use pebbles in preference to glass, be-
cause pebbles are ten degrees cooler.
Never buy cheap glasses until your eyes
have first been examined, because very
much depends upon the condition of the
body when a person comes in to buy.
at requires from twenty minutes to
three-quarters of an hour to enable the
oculist to properly test a persons eyes
In order to get the right kind of glass to
suit him. Dozens of persons come to
me overheated and laboring under some
degree of excitement. Their eyes are
naturally affected by this condition, and
they need to cool Off and become com
posed before 1 can attend to them. Ths
graduation in the number of the glass
under these circumstances will vary
from one-half to a whole number in the
strength of the glass. Never buy off
peddlers, because they have not the ia
~cilities to suit you.
"Affectation is one of the most prolific
sources of defective vision. Young peo-
pie want to wear glasses because they
look Stylish when in reality thera Ia
nothing the matter with them. In such
cases l simply tell them SO, but when
they insist, a piece of clear, common
glass is the best, even though that is un-
advisable. New York Newt

A Most amusing Paradox.

According to the unique view Of the
evidence taken by the Democratic mem
beers Of the gubernatorial contest com
mittee, in tue matter OF the Mercer and
Mcdowell cases, the paradoxical way to
show that q man is q nonresident otthe
State OF West Virginia Is TO demonstrate
that he Is resident. A COW Of an un-
known color with a white iace Is black
from the tip OF her nose to the end Of
her tail. A dog with a long tongue Is all
caudal appendage.
All the beautiful views Of the contest
ant about the Mercer vote were dis
solved by actual facts before the COM
mitttee. For instance, 1t was claimed
that where a man Of the same name
could be found in Pocahontas, Virginia,
as that Of a voter In Mercer county, West
Virginia, lie was the same man, The
only direct proof to identity any Of these
was In one case. Hereit was shown that
the same individual with the same name
worked all the year in Pocahontas and
all the same year in Mercer county.
OF course, as these were plainly two
different men, the Mercer vote was not
rejected; but the very next case, where
there was no proof on this point but the
similarity Of names, the vote was re-
jected. Why assume here that the men
were the same any more than that they
were not the sameP
