TAILORs GIVE THEM TROUBLE
Army omcers Advised that new Uni
forms Can Not he Pro-
vided at Once.

Omcers Of the army are still talking
about the new uniforms provided for In the
regulations, and their interest is excited
BY a letter received by one Of them sta
toned at Fort L~eavenworth from a leading
army tailor In New York. to whom an order
for a new uniform was sent. This tailor
said in effect; 1T Is impossible to all
orders for the new uniforms provided for By
the recent regulations. In the FIRST place,
there Is none Of the required material In
the United States and Il will have to be i'm
ported. It will therefore be impossible
for officers to be provided with the new uni
forms by January /, as we cannot get the
material in time. There is still more DIM
Guilty with the uniforms, as no process has
been discovered which will produce a fast
color In cotton OF the shade decided upon
for those uniforms. The color can be pro-
duced in wooden goods. but in cotton 1t
will fade"
some Of the oficers do not like the ex-
PLANTATION Of the tailor, and one Of them
said; 1--WE do not blame the tailors for
kicking. Many of them are heavily stocked
with the material required under the old
regulations, which they will now find UNI
saiable, but the idea Of saying that the
goods for officers uniforms will have to be
imported is too much, As to the color Of
the soldiers uniforms, I believe that It has
been used by the Canadian troops. both in
cotton and wooden. and that no dissatisfac-
tion over fading has been reported"

$1,000 and secured an extension on the bal

assigned to the Insurance company, but tho

BEACH BALLOON BURSTS.

Aeronauts Barely Escape-sunday At

Sunday was a record breaker at Court
lana Beach. II was the banner day Of the
season. SO great was the attendance that
the street car company increased the num-
Der Of trains on the Courtland B~each-sher-
man avenue line until It had more cars In
services than any two other lines in the city
combined. Notwithstanding the continued
extreme low temperature OF the day every
body was seemingly happy and contented
except the bathers, who found the almos-
phere much cooler than the water. The
balloon ascension was one OF the most ex-
citing events Of the kind ever experienced
about Omaha. An accident with loss OF life
was narrowly averted by the presence Of
mind Of Sam Murphy. the w~ell-known aero
naut. Murphy, having burned his band IN
initiating the balloon. did not go UP. but SUI
~perintended the imitation Of the big bag,
and when the words everybody let go"

rapid pace, and Just there Is where a series
Of unfortunate accidents occurred that.

parachutes and their occupants by some
means caused one Of the ropes to snap and
one parachute cropped Defore IL was ten
feet up and before the balloon was at a
height Of 500 feet, with the three parachutes
attached. the balloon split from top to bot
tom, the unusual amount OF hot air re-
quired hpr such q weight apparently causing
the mammoth canvas bag TO burst. Here
is where Murphy displayed his great pres
ence Of mind. and at the top Of his voice
shouted to those on the parachutss to "cut
loose" which they did Immediately, the
empty canvas dropping TO the ground like a
shot. narrowly missing the descending para
chutes- While the immence audiences APP
parently appreciated the performances Of
the Bicketts as much as usual. the amount
Of applause was conspicuously light, but
when the orchestra ended with Aud Lang
Syne'' the audience recognized this as q
farewell to the Bicketts and the applause
was then both loud and long-continued ana
fully appreciated BY the Bicketts.
For the week the program Is: Frisco and
Faust in three big aerial acts at each per-
Torrance. the return Of the favorite COLI

Hear President.

II a committee appointed by Vice Presi-
dent Foster of the Omaha Mckinley club
can succeed IN its efforts, President Roose-
welt will deliver a short address in Omaha.
At the meeting Of the club wednesday a
committee was authorized to confer with
the board Of governors Of the Knights OF
Ak-sar-Ben TO cooperate with the board,
n It desired assistance. in the reception Of
the president. Frank Crawford, the presl-
dent, left the city before the committee was
appointed and the vice president decided
that a speech from the president Of the
United States would be desirable. He
had a conferences with Senator Willard, who
informed him that the understanding with
President Roosevelt was that ne would not
be expected to speak in this city. With
this understanding the president informed
his private secretary. in the presence OF
the senator, TO make a notation on the
itinerary bulletin. mo speech at Omaha"
Mr.. Foster has prepared q letter to the
president, asking him TO reconsider the
plan and to promise to make a speech while
IN the city.
The president will arrive here at $50
and remain until 1890" said Mr. Foster.
''He will review the parade Of the Knights
Of Ak-sar-Ben from probably 8 to 10
o'clock. He will have time, previous to
the parade. to make a short address. He
Il TO make speeches in every town he
Visits on the trip, with the exception OF
Omaha. and there is no reason why he
should make this exception. \
Suggests Meeting In Ten
'The musical festival will be over at that
time and we can probably make arrange
ments with the Auditorium company to
leave the tent on the grounds. This will
make an ideal place for the address and
certainly nothing Is more fitting than that
Il should be under the auspices Of the Nc
Kinley club"
The board Of governors, whose guest the
president will be while in the city, has
made no preparations for his reception, as
Il has not learned his wishes. A letter was
sent to him Thursday to ascertain what he
desires. but as the reply could not be re-
ceIved IN time for the meeting last night
nothing was done looking to his entertain
ment..
"It is safe to say said q member Of the
board" that the Knights Of Ak-sar-Bep
viii not favor any modification Of their pa
Tade. We will certainly desire to show the
president the nature Of our electric pageant
and to do this we could not have any addi-
lions TO II In the form OF marching clubs.
There is plenty Of time to arrange for the
reception and the entertainment Of the
chef executive asfda from the narade and
this we will do as soon as we know the de-
sires Of the president"

DIRECT ROUTE TO TOPEKA
Another Project for Railroad Connection Of
Omaha and Kansas Capital,
LOCAL RAILROAD MEN BELIEVE REPORT
Omaha Men to ne Solicited to Assiat
I'm Organisation OF Company
and Construction of
the New Line.

A well defined report 10 current in local
railroad circles Of a movement to build a
line between Omaha and Topeka, Kan, that
will directly connect the two cities and open
up an undeveloped but rich and valuable
territory Intervening between the proposed
terminL. This report is said to emanate
from authoritative sources and is given ere
dence by many leading local railroad men.
The statement also comes from parties In
Topeka that the scheme Is accredited there,
and furthermore that some Of the most sub
stantial and influential citizens Of thai city
are back OF the project, in which II is the
purpose to interest Omaha capital as we'll.
This scheme involves the construction Of
a road along the most direct route that can
be laid out. traversing a eauntry In both
Kansas and Nebraska thai which there is
no better in the west-a stretch Of coun-
try. too. that is now poorly provided with
railroad facilities. and the turning over Of
the projected road to the Missouri Pacific
for operation.
Present Connections Poor.
At present connections between Omaha
and Topeka are decidedly poor. For some
time there have been rumors Of more or less
reliability that profitable communication
would be established between them, and
more than once It has been reported the
Pacific had under contemplation
such a scheme. It is we'll known that
much OF the territory through which this
road would run. which is naturally tributary
to Omaha and also to Topeka, is reached
by lines which divert the trafnc to Kansas
City. This traffic, the greater part of It, at
least, ought to come to Omaha, and It Is
with this thought in view that Omaha men
and capital will be solicited, first for the
organization Of a company to carry out the
scheme and then for the actual construc-
tion of the road.
AS the Missouri Pacific now has a line
terminating in each city, IL is not doubted
that the road could be induced to accept
the management and operation Of the new
road, were 1t built.
