TURNING TO UNION STATION
Northwestern OmciRls Are Making
Plans for Nebraska and
wyoming Trains.

The onicials of the Nebraska and wyo-
ming division Of the Chicago & Northwest
ern railway are working on the prepare
ions for bringing the Black Hills trains
into the Union station. If the present plans
are carried out the new order of things will
be put in execution on June 1. AS yet the
local officials are extremely r%eticent, as
they are not absolutely certain that it can
be so arranged. but everything points that
way now. The present system of handling
half of the trains at Webster Street and
half at the Union station is annoying and
does not give much satisfaction. Another
thing that causes them to be anxious to
change all Of the rains to the Union sta
tion is the fact that the transfer OF bag
gage, since the strike, is proving a compli-
Gated affair and most OF the trouble will
be done away with by running all trains
into the Union station. The officials are
confident that, whether they get into the
Union station by June l or not, the change
win be made in less than one month from
now.

BECOMES CITIZEN ONCE MORE
p. @. Heafey Takes Out naturalization
Papers for the second
Time.

After having held office under the state
OF Nebraska and having been a factor In
politics for many years p. c. Heafey yes
terday took out naturalization papers in
the district court, Assisted by two citizens
of the United States he solemnly renowned
allegiance to al foreign princes and poten-
tates and especially to the king Of England.
This is the second time MIR. Heafey has
taken out ANAL papers OF citizenship but
for some reason a search OF the niles OF the
district court fails 10 uncover the record
OF the first. Ordinarily 1t would not have
troubled him. but Mr.. Heafey, with his
wife and Thomas Flynn and wife. are go
ing 20 visit the scenes OF the childhood Of
the two men. and they want TO be able to
establish their American citizenship to
avoid any complications which may arise.

COLLECT OCCUPATION TAX
License Inspector Points the Way to In
Creasing Gty's Revenue.
SOME NEW ORDINANCES IN PROSPECT
PushcRrt Me- and
Hucksters who Have Heretofore
Evaded Their special Taxes
VIII BE Called to Time.

License Inspector Scott says that with the
law authorizing an occupation tax on the
statute books his department will be given
a thorough shaking up and placed in posi-
ton to collect much revenue that has here
tofore gone by default. New ordinances,
however. will have to be drawn in several
cases. according to the inspector. He be-
lieves that the license money should be Ci-
verified into a street maintaining fund in
stead of being handed over to the school
board. In order to do this it will be neces.
sary to eliminate the word license" and
substitute the term Occupation tax"
Meanwhile, before the new council takes
office. Scott is waging a crusade on the
expressmen, pushcart men and vegetable
hucksters to make them take out the IL
censes demanded by the city. They should
have complied with the law during jan
uary, and but little shift is given those who
once notified fail TO secure the required
permit to do business
As TO the Companies.
Another thing that the occupation tax
clause in the charter will do is to bring to
time the large express and transfer com
panies, which have been paying into the
treasury only about one-thlrd the amount
they should under the ordinances. One
company owning ninety wagons pays the
requisite s. license on only thirty Of them.
The transfer men base their claim for ex-
emption on the old court decision tina under
the law businesses could be taxed for the
regulation cost only and not for revenue.
Now this Is changed, and, according to
city Clerk Elbourn and License Inspector
Scott the big firms will have to pay up.
With the incoming of the new council IT
is expected that several ordinances viii be
AHAaAANa1 AAaN---
for the city from certain classes OF business
already licensed, but partially escaping by
divers methods. Miscellaneous license fees
last year amounted to about $4,000, all of
which, with the exception OF departmental
expenses, was added to the school fund.

THE HAIR BRUSH.
Breed DandruR, which Causes Fall
ing Hair and Finally Badness

ing Hair and Finally Badness
Prof. Unna, Hamburg. Germany, Euro
pean authority on skin diseases, says that
dandrun is as contagious as any other
malevolent disease, and that one common
source Of the spread OF dandruff is the use
Of the same hair brush by different n
sons. The way to avoid catching dandruft
or any other disease from another's brush
is to insist on the use of Newbro's Her
picide. 1t not only kills the dandrun germ,
but It is also an antiseptic that will pre-
vent the catching OF any disease whatever
through contagion of another's brush. Sold
