CAR STEALING AS A FINE ART.
Omaha Claims to Have the Most Export
Borrower.

Omaha Claims to Have the Most Expert
Borrower.
When the traffic of a railroad Is linn
tied only by the number of cars 1t can
get possession Of the means Of securing
those cars are overlooked and only the
end Is considered. Thus it comes that
in railroad circles it Is rather an hon.
or than a dishonor to be an expert car
thief Stealing freight car is no more
regarded as a crime in railroad circles
than is stealing a base in baseball
games.
The most successful superintendent
of a car service is he who can, when his
own supply of cars runs short, reach
out and steal from other roads enough
cars to meet the demand. To be sure
the theft is not permanent one, as the
cars are bound to be returned to the
company that owns them some day.
But when several roads are lying in
wait to grab the same string of empty
cars the one that succeeds in capturing
1t makes a borrowing that is pretty
close approach to theft. This pro-
cedure, however, is regarded as legiti-
mate railroading under the conditions
now existing In Nebraska, where the
business of railroad depends prac-
tically altogether on its ability to rush
empty cars to the stations where there
are thousands of bushels of grain
awaiting shipment.
In this respect 1t is generally con.
ceded that Omaha has the most expert
superintendent of car service In the
business. His is a western railroad,
and pretty big one. Just as soon as
a string Of empty cars come across the
big bridge between here and Council
Bluffs they are seized by this smooth
borrower of cars, rushed out on his line
filled with grain and returned here to
be delivered to the railroad east of the
river to whom the cars belong. That
railroad cannot object very strenuous
ly since it thereby receives the haul on
the grain from here to Chicago, but II
may be greatly embarrassed quite often
when it thinks 1t has twenty or thirty
empty cars in the Omaha yard and
plans to send them west on some other
line, only to later discover that they
have been grabbed and hustled out on
the western line that boasts of having
the smoothest car superintendent in
the United States.-Omaha Bee.

simple method OF securing very PLEASING
Effect.
A recent American invention prom.
ises to make tho coloring of photo
graphs very simple matter, even foi
the amateur, and no great artistic tai.
ent Is necessary. By the process
known as the "Kalos art" ordinary
prints may be made considerably more
attractive at small cost and with nc
great expenditure OF time All that Is
necessary is box Of "Kalos colors," q
dish Of clean water and a camel's-hair
brush and sponge. These colors are
transparent, and the shades and lights
Of the photograph show through. Any
desired tints may be secured by mixing
or diluting with water. To color any
print apply the shades with the brush
and wash the surface Of the picture
with a wet sponge, 80 that all super.
fiuous color may be removed. This
prevents running and insures a more
even distribution Of the colors. Rinse
the brush or the sponge in clean water.
after using each color, sponge the
whole picture after the coloring Is fin
ished. 1t is better to make the colors
a trife stronger than Is desired in Or
der to allow for slight fading In the
mounting process. The picture should
then be allowed to dry thoroughly, &c
that the colors may become firmly
fixed before mounting. These colored
prints may be mounted on cards or
transferred to glass, in imitation OF
porcelain paintings. The miniature
may be set in pearl or gold for lockets,
brooches. sleeve buttons, watch charms
&c. This process is warranted to work
on photographs Of a gelatinous nature.
and gives excellent results on platinum
prints. Collodion prints may be COL
ored by first giving them gelatinous
surface This may be done by adding
one-quarter ounce Of water to one
ounce of sheet gelatine, and the mix
ture heated until the gelatine is thor.
oughly dissolved; then, with wide,
soft brush. apply the dissolved gelatine
to the film side Of the print, giving II
a smooth, even surface. Heat 1t gen.
tly over lighted lamp until dry
