GERS and delegates OF the international or
ganizations connected with the printing.

which will be called to order tomorrow by
President Lynch of the International Typo
graphical union. The conference will be
held at the headquarters OF the Interna-
tional Typographical union.
The purpose Of the delegates will be

branches of the printing trades shall work
and each of the trades shall have repre-
sentation of three votes at the national
conferences. The central body will have
charge OF the label aud shall say which
unions shall use 1t,
There has been some doubt as to whether
the International typographical union
would consent to an equal representation
for the reason that it has a much larger
membership than any of the others.
A delegate of the independent photo
graph engravers' union said there would
be no trouble about reaching an agreement
with the printers and the oontending
branches of his union would both come into
one organization.

At THE ~PLAYHOUSES
olson" nj the Boyd.

Ben Hendricks has been coming to
Omaha for the last thirteen years with his
"Ole Olson makeup and dialect, but the
size Of the house he drew at the Boyd last
night would seem to indicate that the
play and the player have lost none Of
their charm for the people. ole Olson
IL an humble hero, but nenetheless a
pleasing one. and the people apparently
like to watch his struggle with the Eng
lish language, a loving cook-lady and a
bunch Of villains at the same time. He
overeomes the latter, circumvents the sec
ond, and gives up the first as a task too
great for his tongue, which has been thick
ened by a descent from vikings who didn't
waste time talking. ole is assisted along
the way by a number Of persons who have
things to do with the working out Of the
plot Of the play. Several of these show
much cleverness, and all work together
with a harmony that max the play move
smoothly. One Of the interpolated fea-
lures is the Swedish Ladies' quartet, the
members having well trained voices which
chime melodiously in the folk-songs and
English numbers rendered. This was an
especially delightful part Of the perform
ance last night. "Ole Olson" will be re-
peated this evening.

-
Two large audiences passed a verdict nj
approval on the bill at the Creighton
OTpheum yesterday. No one OF the acts
stands out with any startling prominence
above the level of excellence set for this
house during the present season, but all
are so near the mark that II would not be
overstatIng the truth to say that the bill
is the best balanced that has been given
yet. Cole and Johnson are in many ways
entitled to the honors. They are imbued
with the true artistic spirit, and are
musicians Of more than ordinary ability,
being possessed Of carefully cultivated
voices and having extensive knowledge OF
the piano, the only instrument they use.
Their songs are mostly of their own COM
position, and are suns with good taste.
And be It to their credit said they refuse
to sing coon" songs. Miss Dorothy Wal
tiers whistles most tunefully, some of her
numbers being extremely difficult, and
James H, Cullen sings a bunch of his own
parodies on popular songs in a way that is
his own. Olivette is a clever juggler, does
some mystitying work in the way of palm
ing cards and coins, spins tambourines In
a way never seen here before and does
some exceedingly clever shadowgraph work.
Purcell and Maynard do a pleasing sketch
and the Columbian trio also make good In
its act. Some new and popular pictures are
shown by the kinodrome.

done to farms along the river bottoms.
Many booms of logs have broken away and
several million feet OF saw logs set adrift.
On account Of the high water 1t became

A SCOUTS HARD LEE.
sonae of the Hnrdships and Dangers
That Must BE Faced.

/ IhaN must he raced.
An unfortunate. says Leslie's Month
| ", was sent with dispatch to one Of
the smaller outposts in the far north
west. 1t was toward spring, when the
midday sun thaws the surface of the
snow and the light frosts harden the
melted crusts to glace of ice as daz-
ziingly bright as the binding flashes OF
sunlight from polished steel. The thaw
had crusted over the trail, and the
scout had to keep q sharp eye on the
way not to lose the path altogether
Suddenly the midday sun developed ex-
traordinary hues. Magenta, purple and
black patches began to dance on the
snow. alternately with wheels and
rockets of cheese colOred fire. Then the
light went out altogether, though the
man knew that it was broad day. He
had become snow blind. The only thing
was to give his horse the bit.
The horse stood stock still. By that
time he knew that he had lost the trail
altogether or the broncho would have
followed any visible path. He wheeled
the horse about 1t still refused to go
on, and then the man inferred that the
crust of ice had been so Hard that the
horse could not follow back the way
1t had come. That night the trooper
slept under saddle blankets, with the
faithful horse standing sentry.
For five days the trooper wander
ed blindly over the prairies, losing all
count of time, eating snow to quench
his thirst and sleeping in the holes that
the broncho had paved through the
ice crust to the under grass. The troop
er was now too weak to mount and
keep the saddle. AS n last hope the
thought struck him that If he unsad-
died his horse and turned it loose it
might find its way back to the fort,
and so notify his friends that he was
lost. He did this. but the faithful crea-
ture refused to leave the man lying on
the snow and stood over him in spite
of all his efforts to drive 1t off. On the
sixth day the mail carrier found the
pair. The trooper was severely frozen,
but the rider and horse lived to see
many another days service.
