New Vaudeville is Being Put In
Repair for the Summer

The new Bijou theater on Harney street
between Eighteenth and Nineteenth, Will be
opened early in July as a vaudeville house.
1t is the plan to present only clean, first
class acts, with plenty of music and sing
ing in the program each week.
The Bijou will be a vaudeville theater
during the summer at least. Whether this
will be the policy during the regular season
will depend on the success with which the
theater meets this summer. Considerable
correspondence has been had with the
Shuberts in regard to playing their produc-
tions during the winter, but as yet 40
agreement with them has been made.
The playhouse is peculiarly adapted to
summer use, the ventilation being excellent
and the auditorium always cool A large
illuminated garden west of the theater is
expected to be a popular feature during
the summer months. There will be concerts
in the garden each evening before the per
formance and light refreshments will be
served. Two large exits have been provided
in the west wall of the auditorium, which
lead directly into the garden. The main
entrance viii be at the Harvey street front

BRYAN STATES HIS POSITION
NebrRskan Says Private MOnopoIIeu
Must he EXterminated and Cor
pOrations Regulated.

TRONDHJEM, Norway, June 2.-Mr. and
Mrs w. J. Bryan arrived here today to at
tend the coronation.
Mr.. Bryan taking for his text the state
ment that he was being described as con-
servative, said:
Il am not responsible for the phrases used
in regard TO me. but I am responsible for
my position on public questions That posi-
tion ought 10 he we'll known. Take the
trust question for instance, as it seems
uppcrmost just now. Ny position is that
private monopoly is indefensible and intol-
erable THAT was the democratic platform
in 1900 and the plank was incorporated in
1904 and it is the only tenable position.
'"There IS some talk Of controlling the
trusts-you might as well talk Of con-
trolling burglary, We do not say we shall
only steal a little hit or I'm some par
ticular way, but that they shall not steal
at all. II is of private monopolies.
II is not sufficient 10 control or regulate
them-they must be absolutely and totally
destroyed. Corporations should he CON
trolled and regulated, but private Inonop-
| oles must be exterminated, root and
I branch. Now, you can call that radical
doctrine. Yet il more conservative to apply
| this remedy now than TO wait until preda
/ tory wealth has by it's lawlessness brought
odum on legitimate accumulati tions.
What used to be called radical is now
[ called conservative because people have
| been investigating The doctrine has not
( changed, but public sentiment is making
progress"
! Mr and Mrs. Bryan will spend a week in
| Norway and will then go to England. They
will sail for home late in August.
