his resonant baritone to better uses than he did this sum-

lasting hit. Several enthusiastic young persons were
given an opportunity to try out as the "burgomaster, the

Dimmick the faithful and his bunch Of
fiddlers and drummers and horn blow
ers become so well accustomed to the
doings at the Den that it is second ma
turc to them, but this season they really
had something to do. The old-time tune
of Turkey in the Straw was abolished
and in it's stead was set down the sweet
harmonies written by Prof. Kratz for
the establishment of the opera" These
were performed in mastery style and
the careful watching of the leader ena-
bled the singers always to have at least
the right music cue, so that any possible
hitch in the performance might not be
ch~argeable to the orchestra. Oscar
Lieben not only took part in the play,
but attended to the costuming, and
nightly gave instructions to a large class
in the gentle but necessary art of max
ing up for appearance before the foot
lights, The wonderful crop of boards
and scars and other things that Oscar
produced on the faces of some Of
Omaha's most popular young men were

1t all began in a little private dining
room one afternoon, when the snow lay
deep on the ground, and seven men
more or less interested in Ak-Sar-Ben
met around a table on which there was
something to eat, and something to
smoke, and where a waiter could easily
get in with something to drink. The
debate that followed around that board
would have been of immense value If it
only could have been preserved to his
tory. Sever men sat together at that
luncheon, and when it broke up it had
developed that there were seven ire
vocably fixed ideas as to what the next
show would do. and an outsider might
have thought that seven long friend

much more liberal views and a
broader human sympathy.

A A. Tanner. formerly a Con-
gregat'onal minister, completed
the Chautauqua program Sunday
night, his theme being "The Man
in Overalls." Mr.. Tanners talk
was pronounced by many the best
OF the entire week. He got right
down to the hearts OF his hearers
and riveted their attention from
the beginning. He appealed in ell
oquent words for a better under
stand ng and a little more sym-
pathy for the work .nyman. He
once worked side by side with the
day laborer in the machine shops
in Toledo, Ohio, in order to study
his condition, and he told several
good stories in connection there
with, in which wit, humor and
pathos were happily blended. He
told how many toiler3 in our fac
tories received barely enough, or
less than enough, wages to live
on, work ng out their lives to pro-
duce the useful and necessary ar
ticles OF the world, while a few
beneficiaries of their toll amassed
colossal fortunes to squander in
riotous living. He deplored the
economic and social system that
permitted such a condition to pre-
vail, but advanced no remedy.
He pictured the Man of Galillee
as a type of the man in overalls
when He wrapped a towel around
h fa ataf .A ~
the apostles.
Withal, the Chautau1ua was a
pronounced success. 1t proved
to be all that was claimed for it
an entertaining, instructive, NOR
ally and mentally educational in
stitution. Sunday night it was
found that nearly 700 tickets had
been subscribed for next year, and
a committee OF the business men
of town guaranteed the remain
der of the 1000 tickets necessary
to bring the Chautauqua back next
year. This year, it will be remem-
bered, some who had subscribed
for season tickets at the $l.5e rate
were unable to secure them be-
cause they called for them after
the Chautauqua had commenced.
So, please bear in mind next year
that positively no season tickets
will be sold at the $3.50 rate af-
ter. noon Of the iirst day, and get
your tickets when they 9are first

LISTING OF ROOMS
 FOR FAIR VISITORS
Bureau of information Is Now Open for Business at the Board
 of Trade.

The hoard of trade information bu- reau, free institution conducted solely for the benefit of visitors to the. city during the fair week, is now open, or ganiZed and ready for business. The plan is practically the same as preced- ing years, only with each years exper- fence efforts are made to make it more efficient.
 In short the plan is to list every available room in the city, with the prices charged. and full directions as to location. When visitor applies for entertainment he win be shown the list, make his selection and be sent there. He will be charged nothing for this service and the owner of the room win
 charged no commission for the rent ing of it through the bureau. All that is asked is that householders be accur- ate in listing their rooms. to avoid misunderstanding and that as soon as room is accepted by any one the rehouseholders are most emphatically requested to send word by telephone or otherwise. to the board of trade so the room can be taken off the list. The negligence of householders last year in this respect caused about all the mixup and trouble the bureau had and on one occasion so many neglected it it became necessary to revise the entire list by telephone, which was a very irritating job. There will be bigger crowd in the city this year than ever and there is little doubt but that every desirable room can be rented through the bureau, if listed and all the house. holders has to do in the way of accom- mission is to promise to be careful and to give patrons all thew agree to in the way of conveniences.
 The demand for rooms opened up early. There were applications last week for accommodations for probably seventy-five persons. but the bureau was not yet opened. It is open now and every person in town who has g room he wants to rent, or who will be willing to rent one as an accomo- dation. is upged to list it at the board of trade. There is only one restriction and that is that the board will not be party to stimulating high prices. It will handle no rooms the rent for which exceeds the following prices: Double bed for two people $2; double bed for one person. s1.50; single bed Sl cots 90 cents. Householders may make their prices as much cheaper as they wish but the board will handle no rooms at higher prices. The board however. guarantees nothing but good service in bringing the visitor and the room holder together. It is not res- pcnsible for rates other than as listed, and those rates will be adhered to.
 The listing of rooms with the bureau does not prevent their being rented to anybody elso who chances to come along. but in such a case the owner of the room Is obligated to report the
Arizona republican., 1909-11-02

fact to the bureau that the listing may be cancelled 1t is also the preference of the bureau that those listing rooms
 me to the board of trade in person so that any desirable questions may be asked and conditions, fully explain ed However, if this is inconvenient listings may be made by telephone.
 Secretary Cowgirl stated. yesterday that he has an application now from a colony of schoo; teachers who would all like to room at the same place and that they will require eight rooms. Any person who has eight rooms to rent can probably sell the whole block by applying to Mir. Cowgirl at once. He has placed several delegations of teachers already and has this order on hand to fill now.

MINERAL SPECIMENS
 WORTH LOOKING AT
JeweIry Copper From the London
 Mountain Property.

Eugene Brady O'Neill returned last week from a ten days trip of inspec- ton of the London Mountain Copper company's property near Christmas, of which he is president He brought nome, with him a gripsack full of jew elry copper from the property, which he has on exhibition in his office. Such jewelry copper ore-a beautiful blue chrysocolla closely resembling turquoise-which finds a ready sale at from one to three dollars a pound to jewellers. according to its purity and the size of the Jumps. They manufac- ture if into the cheaper grades of jew elry and sell it as turquoise.
 Chrysocolla is q silicate of copper and carries 45 per cent of the metal. 4 great deal of it was found in very beautiful condition in the Old Domin- ion mine at Globe in the early history of that famous property, and beautiful specimens of it are to be seen in min eral cabinets all over the world. A great deal of it occurs in many of the mines about Globe and it is still an important part of the output of the old Dominion. but it was only at or close to the surface that 1t was fine enough in color and purity to be sought as specimens.
