Announcements of the Theaters.

At the Boyd this evening Omaha people
will be given their first glimpse of what
New York folks last winter pronounced the
comedy hit of the season, MRS. Letting
wells Boots" This piece is by Augustine
Thomas, who has given us so many clever
plays, and not failure in the lot. Last
season we enjoyed immensely two of his
comedies 1.-THE Earl of Pawtueket" and
1.-THE Other Girl" This say the New York
critics, surpasses both of those. Its story
is one that admits of more cleverness in
treatment, indeed, requires IT, but it is
carried out capitally and its interest and
humor never flags. The company, which is
a Frohman organization, is headed by
William Courtenay who is well recalled
! locally, and Jane Laurel, who made such
an impression in Omaha two seasons ago.

TEST OF THE PRIMARY LAW
Socialists, in Their Brief, Demand Man
damus iOr Drexel,
DECLARE He VIOLATED OLD STATUTES
Dodge Act f. stamped as Contrary
TO Article in state COnstitu-
tion Governing Holding
of Elections.

Printed copies Of the brief filed in the
supreme court OF Nebraska by Attorneys
George A. Magney and T. r. Leigh, at
torneys for the socialist party Of Douglas
county, are now out. The title of the case
is: Clark w. Adalr, relator, against John
c. Drexel, county clerk of Douglas county.
Tie brief starts out by saying.
This Is an application for a mandamus
to compel the county clerk Of Douglas
county TO receive and file the certificate Of
nominations for county officers made by the
socialist party The clerk refused to file
were not made up In accordance with the
primary law enacted by the last Legislature
To back up this assertion, It is set out
in large capital letters that, THE act in
question is violative of section %, article /,
OF the constitution of the state"
The section in question reads:
All elections shall be free; and there shall
be no hindrance or impediment to the right
Of qualified voter to exercise the elective
franchise.
Arguing along the line Of these premises,
the brief covers all sections questioned in
the Dodge primary law, up to quoting a
decision Of the California supreme court
in a similar case, the concluding part and
the Rist OF which IS:
The legislature has no power TO deprive
any citizen of the state, who fills all the
from voting at an election provided for
by this act
On the line of this decision and their
original contention, Attorneys Magney and
Leigh say;
Filing Fee ViOIative.
The requirement of the payment of a
hlinB fee Of l per cent of the emoluments
of the Office as a requisite for the candi-
date having his name placed upon the pri-
mary election ballot is clearly violative of
section % Of the constitution and renders
the act void.
They further say:
The legislature has no more authority to
say that the voter shall be assessed / per
cent of the salary of the Office for the priv
ilege Of having his name placed upon the
Official primary ballot than II has to say
that the elector when nominated for Of
hce shall be taxed l per cent of the salary
of the office before his name shall be placed
upon the official election ballot.
Numerous authorities are set out as sup
porting the propositions of the brief that
no test shall be imposed upon the voter as
basis for participation in an election, ex-
cept possibly as to party afilatlon for a
reasonable time as until the next general
election"
The clause excepting from registration
certain parties. as those who are sick. un-
avoidably absent, or other matter beyond
his control" is also questioned, and like
wise that mo provision is made for the
voter proving his right to vote other than
by registration"
An attack is also made on the title as
covering more than one subject. And the
change In method of registration is also
excepted to.

A gown worn at the opera was prin- cess robe of black, literally covered with black sequins; and with this no jewels were worn, as they would have detract- ed from the effect desired, that one of grace and simplicity. A rival of the black sequin gown was white princess with tiny silver spangles frosting it over. Silver is very fashionable just now. and one will not be apt to make a mistake if one employs touch of it in stock 0. belt, or uses it for general trimming One disadvantage is its furnishing. but as everybody else's does also 1t makes less difference than if one were the in- dividual sufferer.
 Red is trying very hard to lead, but as yet we cannot say it is the most fashion able shade of the winter. Green might almost receive this distinction, one sees it used on so many good costumes, and it is seen occasionally forming with fine effect the entire. dress. One effective street costume of deep red redingote, skirt, and small hat of the same shade, and the hat was trimmed with a rosy plume. A beautiful pink variation was noticed, the gown of pale pink trimmed with leaves of velvet of deeper shade. A chou of pink tulle at the neck gave an airy look to this rose-colored creation; and one gazing at the whole would think he were looking through rose-colored spectacles.
 Just now it is hard to tell exactly what styles are to be, even the dressmakers seem undecided as to skirts-waists can take care of themselves; we are sure about the broad shoulders, the fitness of sleeves at the top. But as to skirts; they cling, and yet they stand out: a few dressmakers have begun to put crinoline in up to the knees, though they may have to take it out before the dress is laid aside. There is tendency to show full. ness at the waist line on the new spring models, but as yet most of the skirts are close about the hips and part way down to the knees. Ruffies are to be used a great deal, both on skirts and on waists.

Gossip of the Wardrobe

the trimming of the dress may determine the way in which they are to end.
 For shirt waist suit of plain cloth. one may wear a belt and stock of plaid ribbon, the belt on the girdle order For a blue dress the plaid might we'll be blue and green, and this would be especially good with peacock hat, or a green hat. Almost anyone can concoct acceptable stocks and belts. and thereby save a pretty penny. Powered ribbon is still in favor for girdles. and gives dressy look to a costume. Choose colors harmoniz- ing rather than contrasting.
 Coat-tails of al. sorts and all lengths are appearing, slim tabs and fiat, wide tails; they bid fair to be rushed to an ex- treme that soon will see their end. AL though the exaggerated dip belt does not now obtain. still the draped bodices are built on a pointed foundation that car ries out the dip lines: and one makes a mistake if she thinks the belt is not to slope down in front
 We hear repeatedly that separate blouses are quite out, but ever we find well dressed people appearing with more new ones. However. it is wise choice to select a waist that will look as though chosen expressly for the skirt with which worn. With suit it is a good idea to buy waist the same color. but of ma terial different from the main body of the gown; with broadcloth. silk ifs pret- tier than wool. and chiffon. for looks. best of all. We confess great liking for the combination of wool and chiffon. vel vet and chiffon: heavy stuffs appearing a' their best when placed beside filmy ones. and vice versa.

 Beauty rose came out, per haps it had influence to make this bloom one peculiarly distinguished; at any rate now if one Is fortunate enough to get just the right touch of grape tone, whatever it is that bears the shade will be liked as long as it lasts. We suggest a costume that possesses harmony of tints, and the tints of the kind alluded to. It is mauve gown of cloth (the ma terial eXquisitely fine), trimmed with heliotrope velvet. The hat should be very carefully chosen. preferably match ing the costume, although an all-white or an allblack one would not be at all bad with such gown. The artist that designed the model selected purple vel vet hat with plumes of the same color. So often questions are asked concerning the exact shade meant by mauve that we feel called upon to repeat that it is deli- cate purple. lilac or violet. It is, to our way of thinking. one of the loveliest of all the numberless tones
 Avery pretty dress. but one that should never stand close neighbor to the above, save in black and white picture, is of blue crepe de chine. that accommodating material that lends itself to so many oc- casions, so many styles. The model il- lustrated is perhaps bit stiff, and yet the dress really does not so look when worn. A very pretty trimming for the blue crepe de chine is embroidery and ribbon, the ribbon matching the dress, the embroidery straw-color or black
 Speaking of blue gowns, we lately were impressed with one worn by pure brunette, pale blue trimmed with the fashionable sequins, which were of shaded blue. The sequins formed straps for the shoulders of the low-neck bodice. and were cunningly used on net which fell from the shoulders to a deep point below the elbow.
 Sequins are more and more in evidence.
