The ever popular 'The B~urgomaster'
will be seen at the Boyd tonight for an en-
gagement that will include tomorrow's
matinee and night. THE Burgomaster''
needs no Introduction to Omaha theater-
goers and will doubtless repeat the success
it achieved on its previous visits here. It
is claimed that the comedy is even better
than ever before. The costuming is en-
tirely new this season. as are the scenic
dress and stage adjuncts.
Gus Weinberg, who created the role Of
the b%urgomaster in Chicago when the piece
was originally produced, will be seen in
that role. Patrons will have an oppor-
tunity Of seeing the difference between him
and those who followed his creation. Miss
Ruth White will be seen in the leading
female role. She will be remembered as
the prima donna with 'The Storks."

Stolen Gems,

Savannah, Ca, Jan. 20.-Mamie Dc
Christ. the queen Of diamonds, who has
figured prominently in the courts
since she was arrested in the Kimball
house in Atlanta for stealing dia-
monds from Savannah jewelers.. Is
having more trouble than that of a
two-year term at the state farm at
Milledgeville.
Mamie decided yesterday that she
would need certain articles Of person
al adornment at the farm, so she
wrote e. S. Thonnessen, her former
employer, demanding that he deliver
them and threatening him with the
law unless he complied
Thereupon Mr.. Thonnessen entered
a novel suit in a justice court, levying
on the stuff on a claim for $40 loaned
the woman and SIS that she had alb
stracted from the till. He asserted
that she was about to "abscond." The
levy was made, and unless Mamie can
give bond, she will be sold out.
Solicitor General w. W. Osborne
last night addressed letter to Super
intendent of Police Reilly, saying that
the case OF the state against Mamie
DeChrist had terminated and that he
might deliver the $4,000 worth of Jew
els in his possession to the "rightful
owner" thus leaving it to the officer
to determine which might be the right
full owners, the defrauded jewellers or
the pawnbrokers to whom the jewels
We're pledged by the woman.
Superintendent Reilly construed this

gems over to Teus and to DesBouil-

from taking this action

main point upon which the law is de.
