SIX NEW STEEL POSTAL CARS
Hartman il Beginning to Yield 90
Dema nds OF Railway Mail
Clerks.

Hartman is now having six all-steel
postal cars built which will be used on the
overland trains through the Omaha gate
way between the east and the Pacific
coast. This movement on the part of
Hartman is said to be but beginning Of
a general movement on the part Of the
roads to retire wooden cars in favor of
steel, mail cars.
The 1900 railway postal clerks OF the
country generally believe that congress
ought TO pass law requiring the railroads
to have all their new postal cars built Of
steel They point out that the govern
ment pays a higher rate for the transporta-
ton of mails by far than do the express
companies for the transportation of ex-
press, and that it ought therefore, to re-
quire the railroads TO throw around the
clerks and the mail every possible safe
guard, both for the safety OF property and
the lives OF the employees.
The man clerks at their last annual con-
vention adopted a resolution asking the
Postohhce department 70 require all mail
cars 10 be lighted by electricity. The reso-
luton declares that in the majority of
cases the destruction OF the mails and the
burning alive In some cases OF clerks is due
to ignition by the gas used. They say that
the cars can be equipped with independent
lighting systems by electricity. just as cleo
trio headlights are used on locomotives, the
electricity being generated by the axles.
This, It is claimed would involve but little
cost to the car.

SERIOUS SCARCITY OF CARS
Congestion OF Freight in Yards
and No Prospect of
'-''' "a Relief.

The freight yards OF Omaha are con-
gested, with no immediate prospect Of re-
lief. This is not due to an over supply of
grain or any other one commodity. but to
a general increase OF business of every
kind. The heavy grain business has not
started and corn will not begin TO food
this market before the first Of the month,
but other commodities are coming in at
faster rate than the railroads can handle
them. The car congestion is serious and
the transportation departments of the rail-
roads are up against hard proposition.
The snow did not help matters but on the
other hand helped to make the congestion
worse
To add to the trouble there is not an
over abundance of coal in sight and rail-
roads are hustling to get In some of this
commodity Coal has been short for some
time and some OF the big undertakings
around Omaha have had to threaten to
close down II coal could not be supplied.
Some OF these were jobs on which the rail
road eompaniea were interested and it he
hooved them to offer some assistance
The usual time for tbs big annual car
shortage is approaching and II the roads
are congested before this movement starts
IL II hard 20 conceive what will be done
after corn begins to pour into the Omaha
market. The switching problem is getting
to be serious one in Omaha and the rail-
roads realize this Is a growing metropolis
and that they will have to keep moving

SYLVIA CASE is DISMISSED
Crawford Cannot Determine who IL
owner OF saloon aud Dis
charges Defendants

Saloon keepers can violate the law with
impunity II they are shrewd enough Is the
gist of a decision rendered in police court
Thursday morning IN the case OF John
Buck, who was discharged on the complaint
Of keeping a saloon. at 1907 North Twenty
fourth street, open after hours.
About two weeks ago Clarence sylvia, who
then claimed to be the proprietor Of the
saloon, was arrested by Ohicer Waters at
1855 a. m, when the saloon was doing a
rushing business. After some delay the
case against sylvia was dismissed on the
ground that he was not the real owner OF
the saloon. City Prosecutor Daniel then
filed a complaint against John Buck, an
employee of the Storz brewery, In whose
name the license was issued last January.
Evidence was taken in court Wednesday
morning and Judge Crawford took the case
under advisement until Thursday
In Diminishing the case against the defend
ant Judge Crawford said:
''The issue in question is, whether Buck
IL the owner or not. The only proof offered
is that Buck is the licensee under the IL
cense issued last January and he may have
sold or leased the saloon since then. and
there is no presumption that Buck is The
owner at present or at the time OF the COM
mission of the alleged offense. The case Is
therefore dismissed"

WHY WOMEN SUFFER

Women have so much to go through in life that it is a pity there is so much needless suffering from backache, headache, dizziness, Iangour and other common aches and ills of kidney com plaint
 Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life and strength to thousands of women afflicted in this way
 Women are prone to kidney trouble They have so much indoor work to do, so much lifting, bending and stooping; they are bound by custom to tight, heavy clothing. They get little outdoor exercise and any little cold may bring on a kidney weakness.
 Don't worry if you feel tired and dragged out-if you have backache and bearing down pain, headache, dizzy spells. faintness and lack ambition Don't think it's some trouble peculiar to the sex. Men suffer in the same way when they have kidney trouble
 Ask yourself this question: Are my kidneys welI?" The condition of the kidney secretions may give you an answer If there is a brickdust sedi- ment. or a stringy settling in the urine; if passages are too frequent and copi-

MORE BUILDING.
The Page House to Be Rebuilt and a
 Second Story Added.

Within the next few weeks there will doe more building going on in Tempe than att any other time in it's history, that is if sufficient men can be secured to do the work. Yester- day Thos. Hagan, of Los Angeles, arrived here. MT. Hagan put up a
 number of neat little cottages last year and at the same time purchased the Page house ons the corner Of Seventh and Mill avenue The cottages prov cd a good investment and the 1e:na nd for rooms and houses still being good, MT Hagan has decided to enlarge the Page house. When the building, as # stands, was built. the future was looked into and it was so constructed that a second story can easily be built The building will be extended about the width of two rooms in the real and the second story will be thar much larger. Work is to be com menced just as soon as the materia! can be ecured sand placed on the ground. Chas. Murphy, who built the cottages constructed last season will have charge of the work, but Mir
 Hagan will remain in Tempe for some
