ON STREET RAILWAY
Collisions and Engine BreRkaEe Cause
Several slight Interruptions
to franc.

At $40 o'clock yesterday evening a col
lision occurred at Twelfth and Farnam
streets between a northbound Council
Bluffs car and motor 14S Of the Farnam
line. which was coming up from Eleventh
street. The Iowa cars have the right-of-
way at this crossing. The Farnam cav
was quite close to the intersection OF the
tracks before the motorman could see the
other coming. He quickly hut of the
power and applied the brake, but could
not stop in time. The BLUFFS car threw
the other of the rails and slowed 1t around
broadside to the track so that Il blocked
both the up and down roads on Farnam
street. No one was hurt by the accident,
but the fender and brake of the lighter
car were smashed off and a little damage
done to the running board Of the other.
1t was nearly twenty minutes before the
car could be gotten on the rails again.
At almost the same time a small rear
end collision occurred at Krug park, by
which the rear guard Of a Walnut Hill car
was bent out of shape. This was standing
still and the other coming up could not
be stopped, even when the motorman re-
versed the power. None Of the passen-
gers we're injured.
The big engine at the Nineteenth street
power house got out of order shortly be-
fore 7 o'clock and the smaller one had to
be used. This engine has not power
enough for all the lines, so the current
was shut off between Sixteenth and Web
ster and Nineteenth and Cunning streets
for about fifteen minutes while the dam
age to the larger engine was repaired.

STOLE ALTAR CANDLESTICKS
sncriIigious Thief Makes Away with
Costly Ornaments from st. Mary
MaRdaIene's.

Detective Savage met a man on Douglas
street about $3.50 o'clock yesterday after
noon who was trying to sell a pair of eigh-
teen-inch ornamental candlesticks Of solid
brass, gllded. The detective having never
seen such properties elsewhere than on an
altar arrested the man on suspicion. A
short time after his Incarceration Father
Glauber Of st. Mary Magdalene's Catholic
church, which is situated between Sixteenth
and Seventeenth streets on Douglas, came
to the police station to report the loss
OF two candlesticks, which had disappeared
from behind the altar Of his church during
the day. The stolen property was returned
to the priest. He then identified the man
who had been arrested with them in his
possession as a stranger who had been to
the church during the afternoon to ar
range for the baptism Of his child on the
next day. After making these arrangements
the priest paid no further attention to
the mans movements. The prisoner gave
his name as F.. w. Miller and said that
he brought the candlesticks over from
Council Bluffs yesterday because he needed
money. He said that he had them for six
teen years, ever since they were used on
his mothers CONN. The stolen ornaments
are worth about $40 each.

OMAHA JoBBERS DOING WELL
Trade Excursion Breaks All Records
and Carnival Prospects Are
Fine.

With the week just closed the Omaha
jobbers find themselves far ahead in vol
ume Of business and number of customers
of the same time last year, with better
prospects for the coming month than that
which faced them twelve months ago. The
second trade excursion of the season closed
Saturday night and more than 125 persons
reported at the Commercial club rooms for
certificates under the plan which per-
mitted them to visit the city at reduced
rates. In addition to these there were
many who came in Wednesday and Satur-
day on the low rates offered on account
Of the musical festival and did not re-
port to the Joint agent Of the railroads.
The prospect is even better than the
realization for the wholesalers. Many Of
their customers whom they expected last
week have written that they have decided
to postpone their trip until the opening OF
the Ak-Sar-Ben carnival. Last year the
shooting Of President Mckinley and the
uncertainty which preceded his death
caused many OF the people to remain away
from the annual festival and while the WIS.,
itors to the wholesale district during that
week were in excess Of anything which
had preceded II, the attendance was not
UP to what had been expected. This year
there is nothing in the way of a large at
tendance at the carnival and the jobbers
expect that twice as many customers will
be in the houses during the excursions as
were there last year.

FOR HIS B0XCAR RIDE
Young Man from Sioux City Finds A.
Rather Expensive to BE

H. N. Hood. a youthful traveller from over
In Iowa. is the guest OF the police, awaiting
the arrest of two men who robbed him of
SlO.75 and a silver watch Saturday night.
Hood was enroute to- omahs from his home
In Sioux City, Ia, to seek employment. In
order to keep next to his small capital he
elected to make the trip in a box car. Two
other parties had pre-empted claims in the
car, but gladly allowed Hood to stake OF a
bed In one corner. By the time the train had
reached Council Bluffs the companions were
aware Of the fact that Hood was the pos
SCISSOR OF money When the train stopped
near the Northwestern depot the news was
gently broken to Hood that he was going to
be robbed. Before he could fully digest the
information one OF the men sat down on his
prcstrate body and the other took his valu-
ables. Then they left Hood in possession
OF the car. Hood came to Omaha SUNDAY
morning and reported the robbery to the
police.

we're old and unable to work should also be
cared for.
Or. jerks sermon took It's character
somewhat from his observations during his
vacation trip. For his text he went TO the
Twelfth chapter Of the Epistle Of Paul to
the Romans, selecting the words: Let us
think soberly, as God has dealt to every man
the measure Of faith"
I'VE never go out into the world among
our fellow men, said DR.. jerks, that we
are not the better Of It. for It broadens our
views and gives us an opportunity to COM
pare ourselves with the rest Of the world"
Then following that line Of thought he
argued that no one man or community OF
men should get an exaggerated idea OF
their own Importance and feel that they
could get along without the rest CT the
world. They should think soberly. as ccun-
seled by Paul, and view themselves in com
parison with the rest Of humanity. Each
man was but a unit in his community and
each community was but a unit Of the
great whole.

GOOD FOR HOSPITAL SERVICE
Graduates of Agricultural Colleges
succeed in Medical Depart
ment of Army.

The agricultural colleges Of the country
are being drawn upon extensively by the
army OF the United States for men for the
hospital corps. An experienced army Of
hcer, connected with the medical depart
ment, said:
There is something about the average
graduate Of the agricultural colleges of the
country which makes him attractive to the
surgeons Of the United States army. In the
first place these colleges give instructions
in chemistry and physics which are inval-
liable to the hospital steward and without
which the recruit In the hospital corps can
never expect to be advanced to a steward
ship.
81 remember that once when stationed at
a post in Kansas I depleted the graduating
class OF the state agricultural college at
Manhattan. The hospital corps was small
then and we needed good men. 1 sent down
to Manhattan and showed the graduates
what they might expect II they enlisted in
the hospital corps Of the regular army. So
many Of them came that II attracted the
attention Of some Of the state officials.
These men, by the way, we're populists and
did not seem to have a very high idea Of
army life. They complained and said:
The state Of Kansas has gone to consid-
cradle expense TO educate these men. ex-
pecting them to become citizens of the state
and add to It's wealth by the production.
You come along and take them into the
army and the state loses the men and the
money spent upon their education
Il told those fellows that as long as the
men were not appreciated in civil life, as
long as the farmers paid no more for the
work of graduates Of their agricultural COL
leges than for the work of a man who oould
probably not read nor write the men could
not be blemed for improving their condi-
ton by eniisting in the army, They came
In anyway, and am proud to say that Of
the entire lot not one proved to be q fail
ure, They are all, l believe, hospital stew
ards today. drawing about 800 per month,

they would be little better off than when

church Sunday morning and at the conclu-
sion Of the sermon ordained DR.. Robert

Rev. Reynolds told Of the causes Of the
sorrow Of Jesus before the TRANSPORTATION.
He said that Jesus was detected; He wanted
human sympathy; He knew of the great
trouble and suffering that were in store
for Him at jerusalem; but His disciples
knew It not. "They could not give Him sym
pathy, for they did not understand; they
knew not the cause of His detection and
Peter rebuked Him for It,"

nolds. $50 II is today. There are those
among aus who yearn and pray for our
sympathy. but we do not give It. We can
not understand them, possibly, When the
great transformation took place and the
voice came out of the clouds and said
This is My beloved Son, in whom I an
we'll pleased it was the supreme moment
Of Jesus life and His depression left Him

us and help us we are made stronger and

are tempted; He suffered as we suffer and
Il should be the endeavor Of everyone L

When the foregoing statement is ana
lyzed we find that the school teacher was
paid ;255 for his services. and the Beckius
family 1926 for boarding him and looking
after him, including little Philips splitting
OF the kindling.
The foregoing is about as bad an instance
as that which occurred In western Kansas
a few years ago. where the railroads found
but one family in a school district, and that
there was but one child, a girl, Of school
age, and in a talk with the father they
promised to send his daughter to a female
seminary, paying all Of her expenses, in
case the school district would be given up,
but the next day the father approached the
officers of the railroad and asked them what
they would do for him in case the district
would be broken up. 1t looks very much to
an outsider as though the teacher In this
school in Nebraska never got below the
"R's" in roll call.
An increase in railroad valuations would
be Of no assistance to those school districts
that at present are not assisted by that form
OF taxation, and certainly II appears that
the railroads pay their full portion Of taxes
in the school districts through which they
run.
Railroads are the greatest subscribers tc
country school funds. The teachers fund
appears to be supplied, should the fund fol-
"incidentals" be increased?
Omaha daily bee., 1902-09-08

The foregoing statements show tina the
school districts located along the lines Of
railroads are the districts which are the
best supported. In regard to the expendi-
ture of the funds from the districts where
the railroads pay the greater proportion OF
money, we call attention to the extraordi-
nary amount NJ incidental expenses in
Cured. In District No. 81 there was one
item of $3O3. "a expended for fence, which
is a rather extravagant expenditure for a
country school house, but as ''the railroads
pay the tax" in this district the school
directors appear to be quite liberal with
the money, so much so that the incidental
expenses amount to about half what is paid
the school teacher.
These are remarkable examples Of incl
dental expenditures in Nebraska school dis
tricts. In District No. SO, In Keith county,
some time ago, the statement Of the school
officers, who consisted of Matt Beckius,
director; Mrs. Sue Beckius, treasurer, and
o. Richards, moderator, made the following
showing in a district which only reported
an average of two scholars in attendance.

GLOBE MERCHANTS

Globe, Ariz.. oct. AT a secret
meeting of the Globe merchants asso-
citation, held last night, action was
taken Withdrawing patronage OF bust
ness firms and individuals from the
Globe Times, the organ Of the Globe

ness house in town. 1t is believed to
be the first step in q movement in
which the copper companies are ia
cluded, 10 break the Miners union and
make Globe a non-union camp. The
union has been arbitrary, and by meth
DDS OF coercion has seriously injured
the mining industry, dictated to the
people Of the town and hindercd the in
vestment of capital.
The action was prccipitated by the
Atherley incident, which occurred last
week. when a workingman, who re-
fused To jcin the union, was marched
TO the outskirts of the town and hired
upon. II has leaked out that the min

that the camp shall no longer be under
the absolute control and mandate OF
the union and will refuse TO turn q
wheel. so long "a such condition ex-
lists. Knowing this, the business men
OF Globe have taken the above action.
