Omaha, Neb.. August 1S-The ranks of the striking shopmen on the Union Pacific railroad were today augmented by walA-out of nearly two hundred carpenters, painters and coach build CTS in the shops at this point.

 At the Union Pacific headquarters it was stated positively that the strike was without significance so far as it may result in any inconvenience to the cCmpany's business. One very prOmi-

STRIKE IN AUGUSTA
THREATENED AGAIN
TEXTILE UNION is TALKING OF
DEMANDING INCREASED PAY
7 FOR OPERATIVES.

AUGUSTA, Ga, Feb. 15.-Much interest
is felt as to what the Textile union will
do in regard to instructions from head
quarters to make a demand for a 10 per
cent increase in wages.
About a month ago a representative Of
the executive board of the National Tex
tile Workers union visited Augusta and
mills In this section on an inspecting tour
In a speech made at Red Men hall, in
this city, he said that in his report ne
should advise that a demand for an in
crease in wages be made, and enforced
with a strike If not conceded. 1t appears
from the news received here that he has
made such report. and that it has been
adopted.
The time limit to be set by this ulti-
matum is March l7th. So far no action
has been taken by the local unions. 1t is
given out by the mill men that a raise in
wages at this time is simply an impossi-
bility and that such a demand could not
be granted If made. There are many con-
Sentative men among the operatives who
seem ready to concede this, and who de-
precate anything that would lead to an
interruption of steady employment. The
intimation is freely made that If the mills
will make a slight concession all trouble
will be averted.
There has been considerable reinstate-
ment into unions of members who had fall
en- in arrears, as 1t is given out that only
union members In good standing will be
entitled to strike benefits. and they wish
to be prepared for any emergency

A STEADY WORKER.
Coffee Works Slow Bot sure

Many people use coffee day after day
without an idea of the serious work 1t
does with nerves, stomach, bowels and
sometimes with the eyes. heart and kid
neys. Its work is done gradually; that
is. the poison affects the nerve centers
a little today and a little tomorrow and
so on. and finally the nerve cells, are
slowly broken down ana then Nature
begins the call for help
1t is a safe proposition that II a man
or woman has headaches, stomach
trouble. or any such ailments come on at
intervals. something is wrong with the
food or drink, and this question should
be investigated carefully, for health is
the best capital any one can possess and
willfully breaking it down is a piece of
childish folly.
II is easy to leave off coffee IL one will
take Postum Food Coffee, properly made,
for Postum has a delicious coffee favor
and a. deep seal brown color which
changes to a golden brown when cream
is added, and IL satisfies the coffee
drinker without any of the bad effects
of coffee; on the contrary the result of
using Postum is the rebuilding of the
broken down nerve centers by the food
elements contained in it,
Postum is pure food beverage made
by scientific food makers and can be
depended upon absolutely for its purity
and the good results that follow its use.
To bring out the flavor and food value
Postum must be boiled at least Is min
utes after the boiling begins.

The city walks are crowded with work.
ers for and against the dispensary and
every citizen is approached on the ques-
ton. The registrars will complete their
work of purging the voters lists today
and all will be in readiness for the cleo
ton on Tuesday.

publish letters from various parties for
and against the dispensary- The Tribune
contained letter from Mrs. Lovejoy con-
demning the dispensary. The Record viii
publish a letter this afternoon from a
prominent Methodist divine endorsing the
dispensary as against Is saloons in Rome.
The communication claims that the situ-
alton here is misunderstood by prohibi-
tionists and their argument only applies
to dry counties. The dispensary people
are confident they will win and the saloon
men are making great claims. The ex-
element is intense.

BROTHER BAKES SISTER

HAMMOND, Ind, Feb. 15.-Wilie NO
wax, the three-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Nowak, of this city, Is said
to have deliberately set fire to the cloth
ing of his baby sister and watched her
burn to death.
At the inquest over the body Of the child
it developed that after the father of the
children, a fireman. had gone to his work,
the mother reprimanded the boy for
some trifing fault and locked both chill
dren in the kitchen while she went to a
grocery store.
In one corner of the kitchen was a cub
board in which was stored matches. The
mother was absent about Is minutes.
When she returned and opened the kitch-
en- door the sickening smell OF burning
flesh almost overpowered her.
On the floor lay the 15-months-old GIRL
writhing in pain and burned almost be-
yond recognition.
Standing near by was her little brother
watching the flames which had begun to
eat into the pine floor of the room.
The boy. who is precocious and talk
alive, said at the inquest that he had
lighted the baby's clothes. He exhibited
no grief upon being shown the charred
body.

A Thriftv eeoraIa Farmer.

An instance of the productiveness of
Georgia soil. of the thrift that awaits
Georgias industrious farmers, is furnish
ed from Cobb county; the county which
wins nearly all the premiums at agricul-
tural fairs.
Mr. J. r. McCallum. of Cobb county. on
his farm a mile and a half of Marietta,
planted about four acres in Irish potatoes
in July last and has gathered 1000 bush
els. His good luck was that about the
time the potatoes were ready for market
there was a partial potato famine in the
county. caused by the drouths of last sum-
mer. He found ready sale for his crop at
$3.50 per bushel.
Mr.. McCallom came from New Jersey
about eight years ago and bought 50 acres
of land that was said to be worn out. He
was laughed at for buying such poor land.
but he commenced raising and selling veg
etables, and winter and summer brings
vegetables, eggs and other produce to
town and finds ready sale. His experience
with his potato crop was something
lovely
He also raised 1000 bushels of fine sweet
potatoes. His is a good example to fol-
low.
