ADJUSTMENTS. A

There have been many lessons taught by
the drama in Omaha, but none have been
more pleasantly and effectively inculcated
than those in "Fascination."
This play, at Boyd's, last night, attracted
large and discriminating audience.
And yet the gathering was not
greater than the piece deserved. 1t is
undeniable that, in the setting, the acting,
the costuming of the play, nothing finer has
been presented in this city.
There are many scenes in the lives Of
mortals which may not be produced upon
the stage without offense There are many
truths which may be told of human beings
but may not be told upon the boards, unless
master hand commands the recital Yet
all these scenes are to be found, all these
truths are told in ''Fascination -
But their introduction brings no
blush TO the cheek. When the
auditor retres, he feels within him a
greater faith in human nature.

and artistic impcrsonation, considering. Of

NO PROPOSITION AT ALL.
Acceptance OF Planters House Site
Means a Years Delay

WASHINGTON, April Especial Telegram
to THE BEE. Judge Neville, j. j. Brown,
Thomas McCague and John A. Horbach, in
company with Senator Henderson, called
upon Secretary Window in the interest of
the Planters house site for the Omaha
public building.
The secretary heard their argument, but
gave no intimation as to what he will do
The proposition on file at the treasury de-
partment for the Planters house site is to
the effect that the cost will not exceed
$780, GOO. 1t is not made by all OF the owners,
but by interested parties who execute a bond
for only $4,000 that the cost will be within
the limit
A ruling has been made by the department
of justice which sets up u precedent against
the acceptance of proposition of this kind.
The Encouragement held that proposition
to convey real estate submitted by any other
than those in whom the title is vested is no
proposition at all, ard therefore is not bind
ing or valid Besides this it is the belief
here that the acceptance of the Planters
hou sc site would involve delay of perhaps
a year in the beginning of the work.

A Word About Celery
With its crisp, blanched stalks,
daintily trimmed with delicate
green leaves, it is the most
toothsome boquet that ever
graces your table, And the
healthiest, too. Pleasing the
eye, tickling the palate, and
improving the health, ought it
not to be called the king of
vegetables.
The great medicinal virtue
of celery lies in the seeds, not
in the stalks, and the choicest
celery seed is used in the
manufacture of Paine's Celery
Compound. Combined with
hops, dandelion, buchu, sarsa-
parilla, and other medicinal
herbs, it forms a medicine of
unequaled power for the cure
of blood disorders, nervous dis
eases and rheumatism.
The medicine of to-day;
every bottle sold sells two bot
ties more, for the users recon-
mend it to their friends. Per-
haps you haven't tried it yet.
If not, take your spring medi-
cine DOW, and see that it is

The weather has also initiated against the

There were heavier receipts of wheat to-day,

market raled rather quiet. The feeling early
was rather firmer, and trading was at
