They Lost No Time.

There is nearly always comic side
to ever the gravest tragedy, and tho
smash at Agricultural park last Friday
is no exception TO the rule. On the
topmost seat OF the structure at the
time of the accident sat two bucks
with their squaws eating peanuts.
They went down, of course, with the
rest, but a spectator declares that they
never stopped eating. They probably
considered it part of the performance
any were resolved that nothing should

FINLEY and the Milwaukee.

It is reported that Chairman Finley has
served notice on the Milwaukee road that
that road was violating the agreement of
the lines in the Chicago pool in the matter
of tickets to the Educational convention at
Toronto. According to the rules adopted
by the pool lines, the Omaha waa desig-
mated as the line which should handle the
educational traffic from the northwest
going by way of Chicago. But the Mil.
yankee, it is said. has made the same rate
by way of Milwaukee that the Omaha MADE
by Chicago, claiming that it,had n perfect
right to make a rate and compete for bust
ness over any route that does not lead
through Chicago. Chirman Finley thinks
otherwise, and has 80 notified the commits
sion. But it can not be tried before the
convention is over, and it will not stop the
sale of tickets by way of Milwaukee across
Lake MICHIGAN.

The salton Desert Overflow.

Third Vice President J. c. Stubs, of the
Southern Pacific, concerning the overflow
from the Colorado river into the Sa!ton
desert. CAL, states that the facts have beer
somewhat exaggerated, and that the result
of the investigation has demonstrated the
fact that this overflow was occasioned from
the Colorado river, which is falling rapid,
at Yuma, and that the overflow of water
will be steadily reduced from this time on
but that even should it continue at the
same rate as for the past ten days it would
not in three months time reach the rail
road track at the lowest point of the desert
They would have ample time to change the
line II 1t was seriously threatened, and the
length or the track caused BY such chang,
would not exceed one mile.

when presented on the trains. For the
purpose of making u test case c. H. Mitch
ell, connected with E. A. Mulford's ticket
agency, took SAB from one of Finley's de
~tectives for a ticket to Denver, and then re-
fused to give him the ticket or return the
money unless he would sign a written state
ment that the purchase was made in good
faith. Mitchell WAS promptly arrested for
embezzlement and taken before a justice
of the peace, who held him in $500 bonds
