Vaudeville Mt the Orpheum.

A good hearty laugh is thrown in with
every number on the bill at the Orpheum
this week. Serious moments are not en-
tirely wanting, but they are few and far
between. The program is made up with a
view to provoking mirth and all the differ
ent methods of making comedy are re-
sorted to.
In the topliner is presented a miniature
musical comedy in one act, with all the
usual accomplishments of comedians and
pretty chorus girls. paradise Alley is the
name given to the brief production, and the
escene is laid in that famous alley on the
East Side in New York. Opportunity is
given Miss Marguerite Haney for several
sprightly dances and tuneful songs, in
which she is assisted by Eddie Lane. Will
liam p. Burt has a Dutch comedy part,
and John Walsh accomplishes the same re-
suits In conventional Irish dialect. The
chorus Of alley maidens is good, both to the
eye and ear.
First place on the bill as a pure funmaker
will be given to that old veteran of the cir
Gus rang, "Slivers," or, as he is named on
the program, Frank Slivers Oakley, who
has made the whole country laugh In his
one-man base ball stunt with Barnum &
Bailey's circus. He uses the same stunt
on the stage, but has improved and en-
larged it and it has been made better all
around. He is assisted by Artie Nelson, a

COUNTY DIVISION o KNO.
Residents Weary of Maintaining In

CROFTON, Neb., Sept. 21.-(Special.)-A
petition was being circulated here last
week asking the board of supervisors to
submit the question of county division at
the election in November. 1t has been
eight years since the last county seat
fight was pulled off in Knox county, at
which time the county seat was moved
from Niobrara to Center, which was moth
ing but a farm at the time. There is very
little town there now and the people have
become tired of maintaining the county
seat in an inland town. 1t is proposed to
cut off the east half of the county and
call it Sautee county after the Sautee
Sioux Indians who will be located In the
northwest corner of it. 1t will cause a
fight for county seat relocation in Knox
county with Creighton, Verdigre, Mo
brara and Center in the fight. In the pro-
posed new county are Bloomfield, Crofton
and Wausa, with the former near the
center.

a proposition to promote IN electric rail-

in a northwesterly direction to Central

apart and a part of the way would run
along the valley of the Blue-a level,
smooth line, and being so near the Blue
river it is proposed that water power on
the Blue be utilized for the purpose of
generating electric power for a greater
part Of the road. Farmers along 1.-THE pro-

The Burlington has announced its special
train service for the Ak-Sar-Ben carnival.
Besides a large number of extra cars
which will be put on all trains, several
special trains will be run. The train serv-
ice in and out Of Omaha is such that spe-
cial trains are not required In such nuns
bers as for most cities, the regular trains
with added equipment being able to ham
die the business. A special will leave Lin
coin September 30 at Sis and will make
no intermediate stop except at Ashland.
No. II will stop at Greenwood and waverly
on the above date. \ special will leave
Omaha September 30 at 1920 D. m. and
make no intermediate stops between Omaha
and Lincoln, reaching Lincoln in time to
catch the late street cars. A local will
leave for Lincoln at 1885 and make in
termediate stops. No. 10 will leave as
usual at 1853 p. m. A special will be run
from Plattsmouth September 30 at Z p. M,
and returning will leave Omaha at II p. m.
Union Pacific officials say they realize
they will have their hands full to handle
the enormous crowds that will come to
Omaha over that road because of the re-
duced rates, and as a consequence they
are making every possible effort to get
every car they can for that service. Rep
resentatives of the road are now going
over it, ascertaining from the different
agents along the line what to expect in
the way of crowds. The passenger depart
ment announced Monday that the Union
Pacific would have sufficient equipment to
care for all who wished to come to the

prove a great drawing card.

Director Bacon is surely trying out the

satility of it's members, and is affording
each week further proof of-their capabili-
ties. u would be hard to imagine any
two plays further apart than Romeo and
Juliet" and Mrs. Temples Telegram for
they are at opposite poles, yet the very
creditable production of the sad love story
told by Shakespeare is followed by an
equally creditable production of a light
and breezy tale of an episode in modern
domestic life. The comedy presented this
week is a merry tale of how a jealous
wife didn't trust her husband and got lied
to most g~loriously for her pains; of how
the liar was trapped in his own verboslty,
and of how everything came out right in
the end. And some mighty amusing COM
plications crop out here and there along
the way, affording an endless amount OF
fun. So that, whereas, the Burwood last
week was heavy with signs and damp with
tears for the fate of two fond lovers,
this week it will ring with the merry laugh
ter of folks WHO enjoy the predicament into
which the individuals concerned in the play
have fallen because they were not entirely
frank with each other.
Mr.. Grew is the husband who gets caught
over night in the Ferris wheel, and Mr.
Todd is the mendacious friend who gaily
goes forth to lie the husband out of his
scrape. 1t is a real pleasure to listen tc
Todd as he reels off his Pickletonian fic.
ton, he lies so gracefully that one almost
suspects him Of having practiced. But hi
local standing for probity is enough Il
oxonerate him from any such suspicion
therefore he must be credited with being
a very good actor I'm the role, Mr., Grew
does a little sidestepping Of the truth also
and does 1t well. Mr.. Bacon has one OF hi'
low comedy roles. and that is enough t.
say. He is always god for them. Mr.. Con
nor and Mr.. Clisbee are also in the cast
Miss Elliott plays the part of the jealouI
wife with nervous animation. She has a 10
of really hard work to do, too, for Mrs
Temple changes mood with almost ever,
sentence she utters, requiring the actres
to shift with Kaleidoscope rapidity through
almost the entire gamut of emotions. Mis-
Elliott is delightfully."- vivacious all the way
