UMO OF THE HOUR
Turning the Tables.

Father" said a young hopeful the
other day, show many fowls are there
on this tablet"
"Why," said the gentleman as he
looked complacently on a pair of nicely
roasted chickens which were smoking
on the table, there are two"
""Two!' replied the smart boy. '"There
are three, sir, and III prove it,"
Three replied the cd gentleman,
who was a plain, matter of fact man.
I'D like to see you prove it,"
Easily done, easily done! Is not
that one," said the smart boy, laying
his knife on the first, land that two"
pointing to the second, land do not one
N two make tilree?"
Really" said the father, turning to
his wife, who was stupefied at the i'm
mense learning of her son, really this
boy is a genius and deserves to be en-
c~ouraged." And then, to show that
there's fun in old folks as well as in
young ones, he added, "Wife, do you
take n fowl, and Ill take the second,
and John may have the third as a re-
ward for his remarkable accomplish
ments in learning"

Buildings at St. Louis Fair Will Not
Be Supplied With Them.
The chief architect of the buildings
for the St Louis worlds fair has IN
dertaken a feat that will attract the
interest of architects and builders all
over the world, says the Chicago Post.
In the plans hat are being submitted
for the large exhibit buildings specif-
cations for skylights have no place, it
having been decided that they should
be dispensed with. Side windows, mon
itors and lanterns will be depended
upOn to light the interior.
In summer skylights are hot. The sun
pours down directly through them, and
it is hard to screen them without shut
ting out the light entirely. Again. it is
hard to make large areas of skylight
water tight. The exhibit buildings in
which massive machinery will be
housed will be furnished with travel
ing cranes, to be used both as exhibits
and as aids in the installing Of big ex-
hibitS.

How the Historic Relic Viii Be
Taken to Charleston.
IMPOSING PREPARATIONS MADE

Truck Decorated With the National

Pennsylvania Railroad Yards In
Philadelphia Armed Men Will
Guard 1t on the journey.
Americas most valued relic. the old
liberty bell. will be sent to Charleston
on Jan. 3 next, to be exhibited in the
Pennsylvania building at the eXposi-
ton to be held there, says the Philadel-
phia Press This will make the bells
fourth trip cut of Philadelphia within
little more than q quarter of a CEN
fury. Preparations for its removal
have already begun. The work will
be attended with all the dignity that
national and civic pride demands. and
the bell, dear to the hearts of millions,
will go u of Philadelphia to the mu-
sic of bands and the march of men.
The parade will not be imposing for
it's size, but it will be important on ac-
count Of those who will have the hon
or of participating in it. An escort Of
councilmen has already been appointed.
A local safe building company will
have the contract Of removing the bell
to Charleston. The truck on which it
will be hauled from the statehouse to
the Pennsylvania railroad yards viii
be decorated with the national colors.
Six or eight horses will be attached to
the truck, on either side of Which will
stand a Gordon of police. A dozen re-
serves, all more than six feet in height,
will take their places beside b bell
| when it is secure on the truck, and the
procession will move up Chestnut to
Broad street.
The fiat car on which it will be
| placed will have a railing built around
it. At one end of the car there will be
a cabin to be used as a shelter by the
guards. Cabin and railing will be dec
GRATED with gay colors, and an in
scription on the side Of the car will
read: philadelphia to Charleston A
long line Of police will form a guard
| when the bell is being loaded on the
| ear.
The car will then be attached to a
special train containing the council
| men, city officials and other prominent
persons, who will accompany the bell
on it's journey.
In the cities and at the intermediate
towns and villages along the route the
journey Of the bell will be marked by
patriotic demonstrations. Appeals are
already being received by Chief Pierre
of the city property bureau asking that
the bell be sent through certain towns
on the way to it's destination, so that
the people may voice their reverence
in public festivities.
The demonstrations will no doubt be
second to those which marked the ship.

AS the car containing the bell, guard

cannon doomed, music was played and
people shouted. Through the night as
the bell sped on bonfires from the hill
sides, farmers milk lanterns, furnace
fires and long lines of torches lighted
its way. The bell was sent to Chicago
in 1898 and to Atlanta in 1895.

We regret very much that we had to cut quite a number OF cur

you kindly for allowing US to cut your order and make SO little Gem

STRIKERS CLAIM BIG BREAK
Report Twenty-Thres Dsssrtions from
Shops in One Day.
BUSY TIMES FOR GUARDS AND PIcKETs
Despite OBJECTIONS Union Pacific Per
sIsts in Hiring Men for shops
in Omaha and other
Places.

Last night vad a busy one along the
strikers picket line surrounding the Union
Pacific shops and yards. Eight nonunion
employees Of the company passed through
the contingent Of guards inside the en-
closure and were received by the pickets
outside. According to the strikers this
made a total Of twenty-three for the day,
fifteen having deserted during the fore
noon. The strikers are maintaining their
line Of pickets day and night and there is
no lack OF vigilance at any time. On the
other hand, the company's guards are as
wide-awake to their duties and the rail-
roads interests.
The nonunion forces imported to ~supplant
the strikers are still a transitory lot. The
officials themselves do not deny that meu
are coming and going right along. How
ever they do not admit the strikers, claims
that the OBJECTIONS are OF UGH large pro-
portions. Aside from the claim that
twenty-three quit the local shops yester-
day strikers hold that North Platte lost
five the day before and that two men sent
from Portland, Ore, to Rawlins refused
to go to work upon their arrival.
The former shopmen look for a whole
sale detection about August 8, when the

pired with most Of the contingent now in
the shops, Some vital developments are
expected by some of the men by that
time. However. 1t is not a general belief
that this will mark the end OF the strike
although some Of the maohinists' leaders
nave expressed the opinion that their
strike would END about that time, hoIdInl
that the company would be ready then tC
offer concessions. The popular opinion A
that the tie-up will last much longer.
More Men on the Way.
The company's representatives said yes.

nonunion men would be in the city BY

No IntimatiOn Yet.
So far the members of the license COM
mittee, Broderick, Welsh and Adkins, have
not intimated in any manner as to what
their report will be on the petition sent
to the mayor and council last Monday
night asking that saloons be opened on
Sunday. At the time Mayor Koutsky re-
ferred the petition to the license committee
It was thought by some that a special meet
ing Of the council might be called during
the week for the purpose Of disposing Of
this matter. Many liquor dealers are Of
the opinion that some arrangements will
be made before the week Is out for the
opening Of the rear doors Of saloons on
Sunday. A liquor dealer said yesterday
that the fact that all of the sever saloon
keepers arrested for keeping open on Sun
day had, without any trouble secured a
continuance Of their cases until August
IA, made 1t look as II the saloons would
be permitted to operate on Sunday before
long and then the cases now pending would
be dropped.
