Chicago-Denver and return train which will
be inaugurated on June s by the Chicago

ways will be new and additional train serv-
ice, all present trains continuing in service
as now. a.:,
This marks another great step in the
growth OF the travel to Colorado and espe-
cially to the coast, and is also as a con-
sequence a stride forward In the deyel-
opment OF the Union Pacific and Northwest
ern passenger service. The railway with
its headquarters in Omaha will now have
i've great through trains daily. leaving, here
for the east, and as many more Of them
returning. This is In addition 10 the two

Grand Island, the other to Beatrice.
The 1--WE trains out are No. /, the Over
land Flyer; No, 1Ql, the, fast mail; No. 3.
the Pacific coast fast mail; No. 8. the Colo
RADIO Special, and the new one. to be called
No. IL, the Colorado Limited. OF these
Nos. 3 and 8 have made Denver by connec-
tion with J~ulesburg. With the addition
OF No. IL No. 3 will no longer carry any
Denver business. the Julesburg connection
being discontinued, So there will still be

There was so little demand for religion
that we didn't even have a chaplain, but
that must not be construed against the
boys, for any man who can live a Christi
ian life ia the army can live a Christian
life pretty close to Gehenna.
The first chaplain l ever heard pray
was a rebel chaplain. 1t was one dark
night, and our picket lines were pretty
close together. He came out and kneeled
at a rebel post and prayed that the Lord
would help the confederate arms drive
the Yanke out of the country. Well,
before he had finished his prayer, we made
up our minds we would rebuke him, so we
mustered the guard. charged the post and
took 1t, and the rebel chaplain ran as fast
as any of them to get under cover. I've
always thanked God that He saw At to help
us in our determination rather than answer
that chaplain's prayer"

CUSHION THRoWERS FINED
Young Men Who Acted Like Rowdies
Mt Ball Game Have to
Settle.

William Sullivan and Philip Rauber were
fined IS and costs each in police court for
throwing cushions at the ball game Sunday
afternoon. The men became hilarious at
the game and gave vent to their enthusiasm
by playfully tossing cushions TO the con-
sternation Of those persons in their inn
mediate vicinity. They were arrested by
Captain Her. The order has gone forth
that even If Stone steals four bases. or II
Gonding knocks a home run in the last
half Of the ninth inning with two men out
and three men on bases. there shall be no
cushion throwing. The police intend to SEQ
that the order is obeyed. and enthusiastic
fans in the future will have to content
themselves with throwing soda pop bot
ties at the umpire.

SOME FREAKS OF 1.-THE CLIMATE
Hot waves and snow storna in n
TRngIe Up in Montana
Mountains.

With a temperature OF "a degrees above
at the time Of observation yesterday morn
ing and a temprature of 20 at Winnipeg re-
ported to the local forecaster, there was
something Of establishment manifest in the
office when a report from. Havre, Mont,
showed a temperature at the same hour of
9S degrees and a snow storm In progress.
Even at HavTe It is not unusual to have
snow on the first day of June, while the
temperature at Winnipeg is almost as much
out Of the ordinary in the other extreme.
There is no probability that the cool
weather OF Montana will have any con-
siderable effect in Nebraska, as It will be
neutralized by the warmer weather Of the
east. At the same time II Is expected that
1t will be slightly cooler today, with prob
ably clear weather. ,

LOCAL RAILROAD MILEAGE
City Engineer Will Aid County Surveyor in
Mapping the Lines.
UNION PACIFIC REFUSES INFORMATION
Effort 10 secure Blue Prints at the
Headquarters Fails Because
e. Omcers Decline 10 Give
- Them Out.

The city engineer and the county sur
veyor will probably oollaborate in the prep
aration OF a map Of the city and county
showing the lines Of railroads and side
tracks eXisting In those political divisions
At this time. the former having been invited
by the latter to Join him in the work or
dered by the, county commissioners some
time ago. .....
There has been considerable trouble"
says an attache Of the city engineers once,
'in securing data in regard to the mileage
Of the roads in the city, and the records
on file in this once are very incomplete,
showing but few Of the sidetracks con-
structed. This is due to several reasons
which makes II practically impossible for
any city ofleer to know exactly where the
roads have been built. In the first place
It is impossible to ascertain exactly when
and how the roads were granted permits
sion 70 lay tracks, as the council will ex-
TEND the ~permission at enc time in an ordi-
nance and at another by resolution, so that
II would mean an inspection OF every order
OF the council to ascertain exactly what
streets and alleys have been given over to
the roads. ksain. the railroads, or at least
two Of thtA have oceapled streets and
constructed nndetracks thereon without ex-
press permission Of the city council, and
tracks have heen discovered where none
were supposed to be. silva.
"A few months ago, at the time OF the
settlement Of all questions between the city
and the Union Pacific railroad, at the time
when the taxes against the company were
wiped ont and the contract for the con-
struction OF the shops was signed, the city
engineer decided that rhet would construct
a map Of the city, showing each line Of
railroad and sidetrack within the corporate
limits. Some work was dnne and the rec
ords completed as far RS possible from the
data at hand and then a visit was made
to the headquarters OF the Union Pacific
for the purpose OF, verifying the data from
the records Of the company. When the
engineer made application for the blue
prints Of the company for the purpose OF
this comparison and to ascertain the exact
amount OF mileage In sfdetracks OF the
company the officers refused him permission
TO see the prints or to have access to any
ID. information possessed by the company
which would assist him in completing his
record. As the Union Pacific is one Of the
principal lines which may be affected by the
record the attempt was abandoned for the
time. as there was no means at hand oil
making a survey.
IF the engineer Joins the county sur
veyor in the work, both the city and the
,r county will have, a map showing the exact
condition OF affairs in this regard and the
4 amount of mileage in Omaha and Douglas
u county will no longer be a matter Of spec.

COMPLAINT OF A TAXPAYER
Objects to Appropriation of Public
Money for Ak-sRr-Ben IIIumi-
nations.

OMAHA, May 31.-To the Editor Of Tho
Bee: / noticed the good work that Mr.. z.
Rosewater and Mr.. Simeral did before the
railroad tax commissioners at Lincoln. You
certainly should have the applause Of all
Of the individual taxpayers and home
owners. But there is more work for your
paper.
l notice a resolution was presented to the
city council and referred to a committee
to have an appropriation Of $4,000 made
for the illumination of the business streets
during the Ak-Sar-Ben festivities this fall.
Is this just? Are not the Ak-Sar-Ben
festivities wholly a merchants boom to
help their trade? Should that large sum
be wrung from the laboring classes and
consumers, who receive no benefit what
ever? .-.o,-s
1t looks to me that the merchants should
pay this, as they expect; to make 1t out
/ think we are burdenedy enough by direct
tax and tax-shirkers without this unlawful
mode Of using our public money. There
are too many who are anxious 10 get at our
public money, and 1t is Just like finding II,
or holding one up, only they have a pre-
tense of law II the council consents.
Let such enterprises as the Ak-Sar-Ben
festivities be paid by subscription, or fees
received for the show. i notice how IN
justly your Bee building has been taxed,
compared with railroads, street cars, gas
company, telephone company, etc, Let
these railroads that carry all the passen-
gers in and out, and street car, gas and
electric light companies subscribe to ex-
penses Of street shows and not tax the
laborers and consumers, who can scarcely
get wages enough to keep body and soul
together. Respectfully,

SMALL TAXPAYERS SETTLE
Large Number of Receipts Already
Issued from City Treas
urer's once.

The smallsr property owners OF the city
are paying their taxes at a rapid rate, and
already 2,4OO receipts for 1902 taxes have
been issued from the treasurer's once. Few
of the larger property owners, however,
have toed the mark as yet, though
many OF them have filed requests for state
ments. explaining that they want more
definite information as to how the assess
ments were apportioned on different classes
Of property.
The fact that people are paying taxes
more promptly than usual this year" said
Treasurer Hennings, 'is probably due to
the fact that the time for paying is shorter
than usual, owing to the litigation. A !
per cent per month penalty will be assessed
against all taxes that are not paid by
June 80"

Councilman whitehorn. chairman Of the

received the following communication from
John r. Webster, vice president and gen
eral manager Of the Omaha Bridge and Ter
minal company, which will be referred to

II there. were nothing more to be said,
would show that the Omaha Bridge and
Iermina company will pay more than its
other railroads. We do not own one
hundredth part as much trackage as the
as much as any OF the other roads, viz.
The Omaha Belt, Chicago, st. Paul. Min
neapolis & Omaha or Burlington. But the
foregoing does not give the full case.
Without any right to do so. Mr.. Fleming,
the tax commissioner. has taken prop
company which is in the yards Of this
company, and which was returned to the
state board, and on which the state board
has made its assessment.
This, which is trackage property, which
was returned to the state board, and
which was considered by that board in
making the assessment of this company,
added to the assessment already made,
makes the trackage assessment of this
company $34,515.
l think l have said enough to show that
already an outrage has been perpetrated
upon this company in this tax assessment,
but 1 have not given the whole story vet.
In addition to the foregoing this compan
owns and is paying taxes on property out
side of its right-of-way, and which, for
that reason, was not returned to the state
board. but has been assessed by the locaI
assessors to the total amount of $4l, $40
which shows that the total assessment
against this company is $76,025.
/ hope that this is enough to show your
committee and the council that DESIGNING
parties are Intentionally classifying and mis-.
representing the assessment OF this com-
pany, and that instead of adding to- its
assessment justice requires that the council
should relieve us of the double taxation
caused by the double assessment Of a part
of its property by the state board and by
the local assessor.
The foregoing assessments, you under
stand, are for property within the city
include the Missouri river bridge OF thil
company and other property in South
| Omaha and East Omaha, which is assessed
by the county, but being outside of the
city limits is not assessed by the city Of
