The trouble between the BrickIayers'
union and Contractor Fred whiteside
broke out anew yesterday and for a
time threatened to delay work on the
Hennessy building, but the difficulty
was adjusted without a strike being or
dered. Yesterday morning Contractor
Whiteside put a bricklayer named
Simms to work on the Hennessy build
ing, who had been working on the new
school building. He had hardly gone
to work when the walking delegate Of
the Bricklayers' union appeared and de-
manded that he be called off or all the
men would be called out. He claimed
that Simms. having worked on The
school building against the orders of
the union. was not i'm good standing
till he paid the 500 that had been inn
posed upon him n that consequently
the other men could not work with him.
Rather than delay work Contractor
Whiteside took Simms off and the
trouble was averted.

WHEN IN ROME,
Ways of Doing Things I'm the Eternal City
That Seem strange to Americans,

An old adage says: When in Rome
do as the Romans do" but ii is a uuee-
ton whether the average American
tours ever learns the customs of the
Romans. Even people who nave lived
in the eternal city fail to observe many
of the traits and ways of the Romans
in their daily life. An Englishman
who was ar old resident of Rome was
put to shame by an American school
teacher of %. who asked him IL he
knew why they chopped so little wood
in Italy. He had taken upon himself
the Office of general dispenser of infor-
nation among the guests. and not be-
ing willing to confess ignorance, he
blurted out:
"Ah, yes. / fawncy IL must be the
want of wood hand the smallness Of
the hax."
But the young woman-and she came
from New York city-explained TO hIIn
that the real reason vas that they saw
ed most of the wood. She .nowed the
guests how the Italians mold the saw
bs'ween their heels and knees and draw
the log across the teeth. These are lit
tie things, but they go to make up a

facts for foreigners.

Geld Hearted Railroad Conductor Put
Business Before Liberty and Love oil
Country and Demanded His Ticket.
The Burlington train lad just pulled
out Of Hastings and the conductor was
working his way up the car punching
tickets and tearing of coupons. He had
got half through the smoker when he
came to an inebriated man wearing Il
wide SLOUGH hat and brown overalls.
The man had all sorts Of patriotic orna-
mentation attached to his person. The
grip which he had slowed into the seat
beside him was painted red, white and
blue and half yard CT bunting was
wound around fis sombrero. Three
Dewey buttons were in his coat and a
small soiled flag hung from button
hole.
''Tickets!' said the conductor.
Remember the Maine" the passen-
ger promptly responded.
whats that?" the official inquired,
not exactly understanding.
"Cuby libber an prosperity" the
man in the seat returned.
"Give me your ticket, please" the
conductor said, ignoring the ford re-
marks Of the other.
The passenger locked surprised.
"Tickets:" he repeated after the con-
ductor. "What do want of ticket?
expect this here old road to recognize
patriotism an love of country. I'm goin
in to Grand Island. Pass on, mister
Murray for old Bill Shafter!''
you'll have to give me a ticket or
pay your fare, the conductor coldly
informed him.
''Pay fare? Thunder and hailstorms!
