OMAHA BOY SAVES THE SHOW
Clark Marshall Takes Important Role
I'm "PecI<'s Bad Boy" at
the Krug.

Omaha talent was an attraction on the
Krug theater stage Thursday evening at
the opening performance of the big frolic,
"Peck's Bad Boy" when little Clark Mar
shall who was in Little Lord Fauntleroy'
at the Burwood theater some months ago,
took the part of Buster the chum and
boon companion of the bad boy" in place
of Bessie Burt. This came about because
of the severe illness OF Cora Quinten, who
has been the regular Henry Peck OF the
show on it's tour and who is now confined
in bed at the Lange hotel with typhoid
fever. This necessitated a Encouragement
of the Juvenile portion OF the cast. which
was done without the slightest impairment
OF the entertainment.
AS a fun-producing show "Peck's Bad
Boy" must be classed in the front rank,
and surely II the object of the author were
to please the young and older with a series
of just pure pranks and continual Joking,
he could not have chosen better material
for his leading mischief makers than the
bad boy of George W. Peck's famous
stories. and Buster as his chum. These
two are probably better known than any
other characters In the country and are
favorites wherever heard Of
The show is fun of songs and speciality
acts sandwiched between the roars of
laughter following some prank Of the bad
boy, his girl Minnie or his ohum Buster.

bers of the family and the people who
visit them. The production will complete

McI1inIev club Open to All.

OMAHA, Jan. 31.-To the Editor of The
Bee: While engaged with other members
of the Mckinley club in arranging for our
very successful banquet of Tuesday even
ing we became aware that the bulk of the
young republicans of Omaha are seemingly
not aware of the fact that the club is wide
open to every one of them to become mem
beers on making application to any member.
Our dues are merely nominal, 81 a year,
and at the monthly dinners each man pays
for his own plate, never in excess of so
cents.
The Mckinley club is boosting club,
pure and simple; that is, 1t makes no at
tempt to influence nominations, farther
than that each member is expected to par
ticipate in the primaries. for whom and
how he pleases. After the nominations are
made then the Mckinley club is out for
the ticket. and ready and willing to go
to the front and make every effort possible
for the election OF the nominees
President Erwin and the other officers OF
the club, as we'll as any member, win take
applications for membership; but whether
a member or not any young republican will
be welcomed at the monthly dinner, an
nouncement of time and place always be-
ing made in the papers.
Aside from the social and political fea-
lures the addresses and debates at the
meetings will prove educational and in
forming TO any man, young or old, for
there is an associate list on which can be
found the names of many OF the leading
citizens OF Omaha.
Trusting you can find room for this, Mr.
Editor, permit US, on behalf of the officers
and the banquet committee, to most sin
cerely thank The Bee for the many cour-
tesies heretofore extended.

cialty and that speciality was Christian
education. The demand for Christian lead

from the mine the Star district and
both expressed themselves as delighted
with the encouraging conditions they
found existing. Everything, they stat.

word sent to this city last week.
On the l50-foot level the management
