RAILROAD NEWS

OMAHA, Neb. Oct. 29.-Carrying on
the work as rapidly as possible without
interrupting the continual operation OF
its extensive plants here. the Union Pa
cific railroad has almost completed the
entire rebuilding of its Omaha shops. In
edition to the large new machine and
blacksmith shops, which rank as the
most up-to-date plants of their kind in
the country, a new power house, store
building boiler shop, office and labor
atory building have been completed.
The car repair plant includes coach,
freight car, truck and wheel. and paint
shops, and with the kilns, lumber sheds,
and foundry will be ready for operation
next year. About s10o0,o00 has been spent
on this one feature of making over the
company's Omaha plant in accordance
with Mr.. Harriman's ideas of economical
shop management Power for the car
shops is furnished by turbines, for which
water pumping plant, furnishing mil
lion gallons Of water day from the
Missouri river, has been built.
With view to reducing cost of oper-
atlons, the routine of car repair has
been reduced to a science by the Union
Pacific engineers. Cars coming to the
shops for repair are stripped and the
various parts and furnishings are dis
tribuSeJ to paint shop, plating room,
door, sash and blind department, brass
department, brass finishing room, or
wherever they should go. In other de-
partinelits of these shops, locomotive re-
pairs have been put upon system that
makes 1t possible to do work in few
days that formerly took as many weeks,
every day meaning a saving of $40 per
locomotive to the company Car repairs,
when the new shops are completed, Will
be put on the same basis.
The freight car shop is unusually
large, with overhead electric cranes for
lifting cars and handling heavy mate
rial. This shop also contains special ma
terial for repairing and building all-steel
cars and all the machines throughout
tile shops are run by electricity, gener-
ally with independent motors.

Heavy Teaming on Occi-

Two we'll known Angelenos appeared
before the police board yesterday to get
commissions to serve as special police
officers without pay in order to do police
duty in their own neighborhoods.
DIR. Glen McWilliams, well known as a
lecturer and minister and also the head
of the Manchester Improvement associa-
ton, obtained the right to wear star,
his indorsers being Herbert D. Kennedy,
J. B. Cook, S. A. Swanson, l.. g. Burke
and F. H. Lankby.
The Improvement association, through
Secretary j. M. Heady, asked for the
appointment, saying that drunken and
disorderly persons. and hoboes had been
annoying school children there of late.
The district between Slauson and Man.
chester avenues needs more patrolmen
and Dr. McWilliams will seek to fill the
void.
DR.. Leon Roth also asked for a corn
mission, mainly to arrest teamsters who
insist on doing heavy teamiug on Occi-
dental boulevard, from which, under the
highway laws, such teaming is barred.
DR.. Roth is we'll known practitioner
anxious to improve conditions near his
home His sponsors on the petition are

Both commissions were granted with
alacrity, Chief Ed Kern smiling benignly.

Ester FerrabIni, oIinto Lombard,
ParoIa and AIessandro Arcangeli
Will Play in the Principal
Roles

The initial presentation of Faust" will
be given by the Milan grand opera COM
pany this evening at the Auditorium
theater with cast of stellar favorites in
cluding Ester Ferrabini as Marguerite,
Olinto lombard as Mefistofole, Parola as
Faust, and Alessandro Arcangei as Val
entine.
The Marguerite of Ester Ferrabini has
been pronounced an unusually artistic in
depreciation of the beautiful role, and a
repetition of the success scored by this
gifted young artist in la Tosca" is ex-
pected to attend her appearance this
evening.
The Mefistofole of Olinto lombard is
too we'll known to Los Angeles music
lovers to need any comment on his ap-
pearance in this role, being one of the
very few pleasant memories of last years 6
opera season.
Parola as Faust will have an oppor-
tunity for the display of his beautiful
voice denied him in some Of the more
recent operas.
The Valentine of Arcangeli is pro-
nounced another artistic masterpiece like
the "Scarpia" and "Rigoletto" of the
same artist.
Tomorrow evening 'Mignon" with the
same all star cast which appeared Mon
day evening will be presented.
