SHOW "CAUGHT"
THE BIG CROWD
FIRST NIGHT OF ELK's might IN
BOHEMIA"
Production One Of Unusual Merit
Excellent Work of Mrs. Henry Nell
son as Singing and Dancing Sou
brctte-sEddie' Corners Makes q
Hit and Has to Do 1t Again.

Local Elkdom celebrated at the Ly-
ceum theater last night when the sea-
sons amateur production, "A Night In
Bohemia" was given its initial pro-
duction before a fashionable and en-
thusiastic audience.
While not superior to other annual
offerings sponsored by No. a. lodge,
"a Night in Bohemia" consisting of
vaudeville turns built around slight
story relating to the great Edmund
keene, is an amateur production OF
unusual merit.
One Of its purposes is to give the
general public a corrected idea of the
object and attachments of the world of
Elkdom, and this mission is accom-
plished in the character Of Edmund
Keene as played, with perhaps too
much pathos, by Frank Towle. Keene,
at the age of IS. finds himself retired
from active life and, he believes exiled
from Bohemia and quite forgotten.
It is the surprise party which the good
theatrical people of New York give
him at his country home on the even
ing Of his sixty-hfth anniversary
which allows the introduction of so
many catchy vaudeville turns in the
second act of the two-act piece.
There is introduced to the Mime
apolis public a singing and dancing
soubrette Of professional ability in
Mrs. Henry Nelson, who as Dolly No
bles, daughter Of one Of Keene's old
actor friends and ward Of the great
Keene, plays her part with charming
vivacity. Mrs. Nelson's Good Bye,
Liza Jane" and her song Of the ma
tons which followed, were most clever
bits of character work and fairly
lighted up the second act when there
was danger that the lateness of the
hour would find the audience listless.
without Mrs. Nelson "a Night in b.
hemia" would not be success.
Frank Jungen in the historical
| tramp character DUSTY Rhodes"
proprietor of defunct comedy COM
pany, is excellent and his singing Of
| 1.-THE Man Behind in the first act and
| "The Game Called Love-" in the last
part prompts the regret that he does
not appear oftener.
Our own eddie" Corners surprised
his friends and apparently himself by
the happy way in which he imper-
sonated "Officer Callahan" and 1t was
worth a part of the money to see the
bgrin which o'erspread his countenance
when he was asked to respond to an
| encore for his singing turn.
1.-The Dear Little Willie Boys" by
the feminine quintet; IT'S Lovely

received. There are also plenty of

RUSSlA'S BEAUTY COLONY.
Man Of Many Roubles Has Built Up
Community Of Physical
Perfection.

At the time Of the Russo-Turkish war
M. Reshetnikoff, struck with the inferior,
ill-nourished physique of many recruits,
set aside annually out of his large for
tune the sum of $1,000 rubles for the pur-
pose of eliminating the unfit by encour-
aging marriage only between young peo-
pie of exceptional beauty, health and in
telligence.
To attain this end, says the London
Chronicle, he employed as workers on
his estate only the handsomest and
healthiest villagers. These he encour-
lged to enter upon matrimony by free
grants Of land, payments of all marriage
fees and an annuity of so rubles year
for every child born.
He succeeded in removing from his es-
tate by rather harsh means all deformed
and sickly persons and attracted hand
some giants from all parts of the prov
dnce by granting them valuable privi-
aeges. Those who refused to marry the
partners he selected were uncermonious-

A marriage was lately celebrated there
with exceptional display owing to the

A S the day died, three horsemen
n rode down from the mountain
and struck into the trail that leads
across the mesa. Once clear of the
descent, the horses broke into the long,
swinging gallop which the cowboy
loves. The fine gray alkali dust flew
backward from the flying feet in lit
tie clouds which looked in the half
light like puffs of smoke. They rode
in silence, save once when the leader
half turned in his saddle and spoke to
the rider nearest him.
GLOW far is it, JIM"
Jim lifted his bride reins, and his
horse sprang alongside the big gray
of the leader.

Silence fell again and nothing was

the darkness deepened, but the muf-

soft soil. and now and then, faint
and far off, the long-drawn, dismal

of the valley one tree stood like SEN

Leap Years Increase Expense.

The fact that this is leap year carr
ries with it an effect apt to be over
looked, which is that the annual ex.
penses of governing the nations will be
considerably increased by the inclusion
of the extra day. This comes home with
the greatest force to those governments
which have the largest armies to feed
and provide for. The Freuch budget
commission was met by the fact that
the one day will add to the expenses of
the war Office for 1904 sum of nearly
100000 francs. which will be expended
in rations for the men and forage for the
horses. When all the various state de-
partments are separately considered the
total sum runs into several millions Of
francs.

- s-ropPER's PROGRESS.

Size vowed she would economize;

To save her husbands money"
So she throughout that bargain day
Among the shoppers fought,
And said. when she had come away:
See. This was all l bought
This lovely little collar
That cost half q dollar"
Next day it CHANGED she saw a waist.
DropSti.ched, and very pretty;

Made her sigh: "What pity!
Though I've decided not to spend
More money. l declare
III take it,. See how it will blend
The coiors when I wear
That lovely little collar
Which cost a half a dollar"
And then skirt was brought to view
1t matched the waist; she thought it
Was simply dear, and lovely, too;
The upshot was, she bought 1t.
Some gloves Of quite the proper shade
She got, and after that
special trip or two she made
Before she found hat
To match the lovely collar
That cost a half dollar.
OF course, her costume would not be
Complete; it would look shoddy
Without new shoes. Why, you'll agree
With that: and anybody
Who knows the rules of fashion knows
No other feature will
Set off the costume like the hose
You ought to see the bill
For that dear little collar
Which cost half dollar!
