PLAN BIG IMPROVEMENTS
FOR COMMERCIAL CLUB

At a meeting of the directors of
the Commercial Club yesterday ex
tensive plans were made for improve
ments for the club rooms. To this
ead a committee of three was appoin
ted to see l.. X. McGaffey, agent for
the Gaullieur Block, and show to him
the conditions of the building which
the directors consider little less than
a disgrace to the Club. The principal
dows be made dust proof, that the
roof be repaired to stop leaks and
that new floor with boards running
lengthwise be laid in the open dance
hall. The carpet was ordered taken
up from the floor of the club and
sold. and arrangements We're made
to have the floor polished and sup
piled with rugs. The woodwork is to
be finished in Mission style. Fifty
dollars was ordered laid aside every
month for the purchase of new fur,
niture, which will be placed from
month to month until a complete new
furnishing is secured. With all these
improvements, the club will present
an entirely new appearance, and
with the new dancing floor, the club
entertainments will be much more
enjoyable for the younger members
of the club.
Several new members were voted
in at the directors meeting.
A letter was read in which a man
from Springfield, Mo-, asked for
proposition upon locating a flour mill
in Roswell.
The secretary reported that a
stand had been built in the club az
place of registry for guests. Visit,
ing cards of ten days duration are
given to newcomers and they are ex,
pected to register every time they
visit the club.
The secretary was instructed to as
sist the County horticultural Board
in its supervision of spraying this
year.

women STUDY FREDERICK the Great.
There was the usual large attend
ance at the Woman's Club yesterday
afternoon, when Mrs. G. E. Mason led
the study of the monumental German
character Frederick the Great and
his influence upon French history. A
lively and interesting discussion fol
lowed the leaders address, there be
ing some disagreement on Mrs. Ma,
sons estimate of Voltaire, and upon
minor points, all of which only goes
to show that the members of the club
really think about the subjects they
study and form intelligent individual
opinions. instead of merely cribbing
from cyclopedias and being carried
away with enthusiasm as charged in
the last number of the Ladies Home
Journal.

esting.

If attendance lie any criterion of the pop
ularity In which an entertainment is held,
the travelogue is one Of Omaha's favorite
forms OF didactic amusement. Notwith-
standing the fact that six travel lectures
had already been presented to Omaha audi
ences before Thursday evening, the sew
enth, on South Holland" by Frank r.
Robertson, enjoyed an almost capacity at
tendance.
A surprising bit of information gathered
from last nights talk was the extent to
which dogs are used for drawing carts,
and The vistas of canal made II appear that
water was as much in evidence for streets
as paved highways. How the dykes are
constructed also proved interesting in pic
ture and explanation.

UNDERGRADUATES PUT ON PLAY
Exceptionally eve Performance by
Creighton University
Students.

An audience which taxed the capacity OF
the auditorium Of Creighton university was
highly entertained Thursday night by the
undergraduate students OF the university,
who presented a three-act comedy, TN
Dean of Railsbury.' The manner in which
the respective parts were taken not only
indicated the conscientious preparation
that had ben made, but also revealed much
genuine talent. The university orchestra
was a pleasing addition to the evenings
entertainment. Thomas Lamphier as THE
Very Rev. Theodore d. d. Todd" is the
character around which the play revolves.
He has a sporty stepson, Evelyn, and a
friend, Sconcer, who is police magistrate,
and these two manage to get the dean
into a great deal OF trouble. Through their
benign influence he finds himself betting
on a horse race and drinking champagne.
His two friends were having a hilarious
time in a side room at the Jockey club
one night and the dean called to cancel an
invitation sent by mistake to a race horse
man, Markham, to dine at the deans
house. While there the police raided the
place; the stepson and the Judge got away,
but the dean was arrested, and his friend,
the Judge, was put to the painful duty of
trying him the next morning. Gerald Har-
rington took the part of the stepson clev-
erly, and David o'Leary, as Sconcer, the
police magistrate. was a whole show in
himself. Each one Of the participants took
their parts in a highly creditable manner,
and the whole play went along to the
end without the slightest hitch or delay.

well enacted last night, and the reward
was an enthusiastic recall. the most spon-
taneous of the evening.
In person Nine. Nazimova is all that has
been claimed for her. She is young beau
tiful, graceful, with the peculiar charm Of
the east in her carriage and manner. The
Nazimova gown was much in evidence
last night, for the injured arm precluded
her changing costume, and she was COM
PEELED to go through the play dressed as
she started. Her voice is soft and melodi-
Gus, with a peculiar pitch. The expected
difficulty with the language did not de-
velop, beyond the peculiar infection for
eigners are apt to give to the English
words. She was given a very cordial re-
ception on her entrance. and marked dem
onstration at the close OF the play.
Mr.. Dodson Mitchell is we'll cast for the
opinionated Helmer. and Mr.. lyman and
Mr.. Young are good as DR.. Rank and Kros-
stad. Miss WELDING is also good as Mrs.
Linden, taking her pitch from that Of the
star, and playing the role with quiet re-
preston. The audienc last night was one
not easily moved, but 1t apparently enjoyed
the play from first TO last. and gave it's ap-
proval at the finish, even the women de-
ferring the matter of putting on their hats
til after Nine. Nazimova had bowed her
final acknowledgements. This evening the
play will be "Hedda Gabler," with Mmo
Nazlmova as Hedda. with Mr.. Mitchell as
Judge Brack and Mr.. lyman as Eovborg.
