RETAINED COUNSEL
c. IL. McKibbon will Defend Him.
self Against the U. p.

Chambers H. McKibbon, late general
purchasing agent of the Union Pacific,
was at White Sulphur Springs, Va when
last heard from. 1t comes from a friend
that Mr.. McKibbon has retained counsel.
and will meet the company half way in
the fight. He will return to Omaha
shortly and take steps to protect himself
in the suit brought against him by the
Union Pacific to recover 500, 900, out of
which it IS alleged he defrauded the com
pany There is a feeling among some of
the men who knew him that, blgh roller
as he was. McKibbon could not have
spent 1925, 900 or 50 during his stay in
Omaha and residence in Council Bluffs.
He had the best of everything, but his
cigar bill, amounting to $50 or $40 a
month. is peculiarly supposed to have
been paid by a supply dealer, and there
are stories of Christmas gifts to McKib-
bon of a 5000 and a $40, 900 check,
which, if facts, would have given him as
much in a year as the purchasing agent
OF a certain large Chicago road is able to
spend on u salary of Sc, 900. and McKib.
bon's salary was s., 500.
A characteristic story of McKibbon
from Grand Island, He had Just
been given charge OF the hotel department
of the railway in addition to his other du-
ties and had set out on a tour of inspec-
ton Of the eating houses. The manager
did not know him, and when McKibbon
picked up a pie that looked indigesiible
and SHED it across the floor as if he we're
playing a game of Curling" into the
midst of the guests, the manager was sur
prised.
is that the blanked kind of pie you
set out2" demanded McKItbon.
That is the grade OF pie | have orders
to make" was the reply.

CHEYENNE IS FAVORED.
Shops Only Temporarily Effected
by the Reduction.
Married Men Dismissed Elsewhere
to Come Here.
The Immediate Future is Full of
Bright Promise.

A gentleman who reached Cheyenne
from Omaha yesterday brought a bit Of
news that is welcome as flowers in May,
and not so surprising to home people as
it will be to outsiders.
This Cheyenne man was told by an
attache of the motive department that all
the married men at Omaha and Grand
Island who lost places by the reduction
in forces had been quietly informed that
they would not long be idle. They we're
assured that ''in a short time they would
be offered transportation to Cheyenne and
situations in the great shops here.
This gratifying news outlines a course
predicted by shop men here last Monday,
when the retrenchment bulletin was
posted. In canvassing the situation they
made out a strong case for their position.
There is no lessening in the traffic of
the Wyoming division. So soon as the
fruit carrying Is finished, cattle hauling
will and customers will begin
calling for winter coal. There can be no
dIminuitiou Of the welr aud tear and con-
sequent running repairs, and accidents
which will cripple rolling stock are bound
to occur once in a while, though they
have been remarkably in~frequent since
Superintendent Baxter came into Office
All repairs of any account must be
made here. for here only are the aids for
fine and extensive work.
When the cut down was made Monday
there we're nine engines in the shops here
to be rebuilt, and the Union Pacific hasn't
a surplus OF locomotives and will not al
low engines to remain out of service longer
than is necessary. 1t came from head
quarters that the Cheyenne shops would
be the first to resume operations with a
full force and at full time.
In the light of the above the good news
from Omaha cannot be questioned. Ia a
few weeks meu dismissed from Omaha,
Grand Island. and probably other places,
will come here with their families, and
with other shop men will work nine and a
half hours a day.

Tourists, emigrauts and mariners find
that Hostetter Stomach Bitters is a
medicinal safeguard against unhealthfuI
influences, upon which they can implicitly
rely, since 1t prevents the effects mat an
unhealthy climate, yitiAted atmosphere,
unaccustOmed or unwholesome diet, bad
water, or other conditions untavorable to
health, would otherwise produce. On
long voyages, or journeys by land in lati.
tudes adjacent to the equator, it is espec-
Tally useful as a preventive of the fe.
brile complaints and disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels, which are apt
to attack natives of the temperate zones
sojNurning or travelling 10 such regions,
and is an excellent protection against the
influence of extreme cold, sudden
changes of temperature, exposure to
damp or extreme fatigue. 1t not only
prevents intermittent aud remiCtent fever
and other diseases of a NAL irial type, but
eradlcatcs them, a fact which has been
notorious for years past in No tn and
South America, Mexico. the West In
dies, Australia and other countries.

The LAST LEAF.

We see tine patriarch still
Briskly tieading Beacon HE
Full of joy;
For his heart is pure and glad
As the good Sir Galahad,
Or a boy.
By the teacups when he sat,
The unrivaled Autocrat,
Did he know
He would some day cling, ah mel
Last leaf on the lonely tree,
Bent with snowl
Had he felt and had he known
He would wear the bays alone.
Still hold
Never would have blanched his check
Still his harp had blessed the weak,
Charmed the Old
His the gospel of good cheer,
Doctors art int poets ear
Joined to bless;
Heart with humankind atouch,
Like h Master healing such
In the press.
Writing no impassioned screeds
To uphold a party's creeds
Or its wrongs;
Broader thar his Brahmin caste,
He has won the world at last
With his songs.
stnl he walks the Boston streets,
And he smiles at those he meets
As he roams.

Grasp his hand, dear, IL you can;
