tinue to do so when they pass the limits
of decency and come within the postal rule
If obscene, lewd or lascivious matter and
every article or thing Intended, designed or
adapted for any indecent or immoral pur-
pose. II Is pretty hard TO draw the line on
these things and we have to look after
them very carefully. 1t is true that there
has been a great many suggestive cards
sent through the malls recently and they
are stopped whenever found"
superintendent OF Mails Major Cramer
said:
we have not been bothered with many
OF these cards here as yet but we in
varlably coniscate them and send them to
Washington when they appear to come
within the prohibited class. 1t is a deli

PERSISTENT RUMOR OF DISSOLUTION

Information regarding the AFFAIRS of the

to light Friday which lends credence to
the current report that the alleged grain

solution.
Three OF the wealthiest firms in the asso-

and 1t is said that numerous single elevator
concerns in various parts OF the state al

SMITH SAYS IT is HOT AIR
Omaha JObber HOOts at idea of Of
hciaI Investigation of George
l.. Thomas Agency,

This talk of the Interstate Commerce
commission investigating the transporta-
ton bureau Of George L. Thomas in New
York is all hot air." said A. c. Smith,
manager of NJ. E. Smith & Co., Friday
morning. I'm the first place, the report
said that Kansas City alone had received
$225, 800 in rebates through Mr.. Thomas
agency. This is laughable on the face Of
It, because that figure is nearer to the
total of the freight rates paid by the Kan
sas City merchants than 1t could be to any
rebates that they might receive. Mr.
Thomas is hired by all of the big mer-
chants and jobbers of the Missouri valley
to route goods for us, which is his sole
business. Making a study of this and being
on the ground, he is able to work a great
saving to the merchants Of this section OF
the country. He saved our firm his salary
for Ave years on a shipment OF oil cloths
alone. As he makes a specially of this
business, he is able TO perform the
service much better than man we could
hire at this end. He is able to keep track
Of the changes in classification OF different
goods and can make use of any reductions
which are put in for a short period to send
us big bills Of goods for which there is no
hurry He can often use the water routes,
either the lakes or the ocean route to New
Orleans. / don't think there will be any
investigation, as the commission is now
busied with the hearing of the elevator al
lOwance cases which were called up by the
grain men of st. Louis who claimed that
there was discrimination I'm favor of Omaha
and Kansas City.
"Ah Of the big shippers have Mr. Thomas
route their goods and look after the trans
portation of them, II large order is

FRY WINS GREAT AUTO RACE

TERRIFIC SPEED on WAY TO FREMONT
LRrsOn's Magnificent Machine is
Wrecked in the Thrilling Adven-
ture and Cannot Enter

Thomas Fry won the great auto race
from Omaha to Fremont Thursday when a
dozen local autoists went to attend the
races at Fremont. For thrilling adventures
no race in modern times can surpass the
contest OF skill and nerve that took place
when these gentlemanly chauffeurs jour-
neyed to Fremont. Gould Dletz was to
have been a contestant, but the rain
caught him with his machine at Lincoln
on the previous day and he was compelled
10 run up from Lincoln and not join
the race from Omaha.
An even start was made by Larsen with
his new and costly machine; Emil BrandeIs,
with his canopied top rig which has grown
used to the country roads by frequent
trips to Mr.. Brandeis' country home at
Calhoun; Tom Fry, who usually drives
sedately and within the letter of the law
in the city limits, but who demonstrated
that he was not afraid to let out a few
kinks when out Of sight of Donahue's
finest; G. w. Wattles. who holds the record
between the Country club and the city;
Clark Colt. who has been east getting
pointers on fast driving, and J. j. Deright,
who would sooner run by a policeman than
eat. This was the way they lined up for
the start.

course, played an important part, but
that is the only point for which any
responsibility rests upon the manufac-
turer. The method of making changed

production. and the market has been
flooded with millions Of pairs Of cheap
boots and shoes. But the bulk Of the
money which the public pay for their
footwear is represented by the cost OF
raw material, namely leather. The
priee Of the latter has been steadily adj
vaneing for about four years, and It
has now reached point never known
in the history of the trade. Compared
with l2 months ago, the cost Of all
classes Of leather has increased by full
ly l2h per cent, which is an important
item in the original expenditure OF the
now popular half guinea boot. The IN
creased competition among manufae'
turers caused corresponding shading
of profits, which for a while was per
missible in consequence Of the saving
effected in the makeup by machinery
But against the advance in the market
values of leather manufactures have
been almost powerless. The burden has
therefore been borne more or less pa
tiently by the boot manufacturer until
TODAY he is one of the most embar

shown no tendency TO rise. There arc
now something over 1000 bales stored
in the warehouse Of the Southern Pa

Of three different parties, amounting
in all to $50 bales, at ~ cents, while

These last hops we're not considered

Harris Of this city also purchased a
largo quantity Of 1904 choice hops at
10 cents. These hops could have been

Insect That Sits ON Eggs.

A remarkable case Of an insect sit
ting on it's eggs is recorded by T. 2.
Dodd in the transactions of the En-
tomological Society Of London" This
strange departure from the normal
habits OF the insect race is exhibited
by a species Of bug. The female sits
in a brooding attitude over her eggs
for period of three weeks. When the
young begin to break through she re-
tires an inch or so from the eggs and
remains there for some hours until the
last egg is Matched. She then departs,
leaving the young ones to take care of
themselves. During the whole time Of
broOding and till all the young are
Matched the mother eats nothing. 1t
is thought that this brooding habit may
be means of protection against the
attacks Of ichneumon f1ies.-London
