new FUNERAL STYLE
NEBRASKA TO THE FRONT WITH
IMPROVEMENT ON FUNERALS.

Lincoln, Neb., June 3.-A brand new
wrinkle has been invented in Lincoln
in the way of funerals. The whole
city and much OF the state Is talking
about it and from present indications
1t bids fair to become the popular
style in Nebraska.
The new form consists of laying
the body Of the deceased out on a
sofa, in a natural position, instead of
in a coffin. The first instance in
which the plan was tried was at the
funeral of the late l. NJ Raymond. one
of the wealthiest men OF Nebraska.

.eThe Rivals" Coming.

Few plays have in any way TivaleG
''The Rivals" as presented by JO-
seph and William W. jefferson. The
story of the play is too well known to
theatregoers to require even a brieL
synopsis. AID a criticism of it neceS-
saTily must be a commentator Of the
play and players collectively and in
dividually.
As Bob Acres. William w Jeffer-
son is irresistibly funny. Those IA
miliar with the play will recall the
unsopbisticated country youth who
went to the city with the idea that il
would not be long before he would D2
social lion. Mr.. Jeiferson's pop
trayal of the character OF Bob Acres
showing an attempted bragsadocio
swagger, but in reality innocence and
timidity, is most ludicrous. Il woUlG
be hard to imagine anything funnieT
than some Of the scenes in which he
figures. The character of Sir Lucius
O"Trigger," taken by Joseph Jefferson,
scintillates with an effervescent buoy
ancy that is Irresistible. The Celtic
wit and delicious sarcasm arouse the
risibilities to a marked degree and
Mr.. JeffeTson's Characterization IS so
lovable-and laHghable-thatt the mas
ter hand Of the artist is apparent in
the every day naturalness of his every
speech and action.
The author, Richard BrinsIey Sher-
idan, who wrote THE Rivals" nearly
$50 years ago, has fitted the Jeffer-
son boys with parts even as thorough
ly as nature has endowed them with
ability to portray the characters. So
long as the Jeffersons live, there is no
danger of The Rivals" dying or even
sinking into oblivion. The entire
combination possesses an air of re-
hnement WoefuIly absent in the pres
ent day plays. After witnessing the
performance, you feel as if you were
a better human being for having done
so and the success of more than
centuTy's duration amply justifies all
extravagant claims which might be
made in ats behalf
