WIRELESS GETS THE CROWD
Union Pacific Night at the Electric
Show Proves Success.
DR.. MILLENER is VERY BUSY MAN
Between Experiments aud Lectures
He IL HavinE the Time of
His Life Mt the
Auditorium.

An increased attendance at the electrical
show is indicating that the numerous new
features, including DR.. Millener's wireless
lighting stunt at the Union Pacific booth,
are proving a decidedly popular drawing
card. Thursday night was Union Pacific
night and the crowd that turned out to
look over the show was considerably larEer
than usual.
Twice during the evening DR.. Millener,
he of the Juice" Juggling fame, put his
novel and highly promising appliance into
use to switch off the current from the
lighting circuits OF the Auditorium. on
account Of various minor hindrances. the
experiment might have met with less sue
cess than on the previous night. but the
wizard of the wiggly sparks didn't let IL,
and he plans to work all this afternoon
on the apparatus, so the doings this even
ing will probably be very near perfection.
Whiskers and ELECTRICITY.
The genial doc" of the now famous
fluid has removed any possibility Of OBJ
jections to his beard by having had Ger.
tain portions of that artistic piece Of hirsute
decoration amputated from his physiog-
Monty. but he still retains a part of It on
his chin. which is highly indicative OF the
NNVp anu Impressive electrical wisdom that
adorns the inner portion of the other side
OF his Uranium. Speaking Of whiskers, DR..
Millener said last night:
"Whiskers are sntennae which~are con-
stantly absorbing energy from atmosphere
and daylight, the same as the wireless re-
eeives its energy. A man without whiskers
or hair is shy just that much energy"
The Union Pacific block signal magician
Is beginning to show signs of the hard
work he has done to make the railwa,
booth and the whole show a big success.
His constant delivering of lecturettes to
hundreds of interested auditors and spec
tators told on hiA voice somewhat Thursday
night and he showed signs of being tired.
He is developing a set of vocal chords that
will soon rival those of a side show speiler
and Manager Gillian takes good care that
he has electric lights from his booth to
bed each evening, so he is sure to come
out Of the show not only alive but covered
with laurels.

Band Also n Feature.

The wireless wave wizard did not hold
the only center of attraction last night;
the Union Pacific band Of twenty-five
men from the shops also was a popular
and appreciated part of the exposition.
1t was organized by the present man
aser, Joseph st. Lucas, last November.
Under the able leadership of Peter Con-
sentino the band played a cosmopolitan
program including selections ranging
from Verdi's "Traviata'' 10 some of the
pieces of present popularity among the
masses.
People from outside of Omaha and Ne
braska are being attracted to the electrical
exposition. Among yesterdays prominent
visitors were two well known men con-
nected with the Kansas City convention
hall, who came here on special Invitation,
just to see the show. They were Louis
Shouse. for the last ten years manager of
the hall, and r. l.. Richardson, president
of the convention hall compeny.
Tonight is Commercial club night and
many business men are expected to attend.
For them, the show will be interesting.

Of its relation to the proposed Industrial
exposition they are boosting.

along with the grown-ups. the children

Possibilities of wireless.

Possibilities ahead Of DR.. Millener's
wireless scheme of control are immense
according to experts who have looked into
the idea. The distant control of ma
chinery is only one of them, while the
line of work which he will follow with
the new appliance contemplates a wire
less system of messages to moving To-
connective cabs, working in connection
with the block signal. The Union Pa
cific lie offering him every facility and
the cooperation of the Fort Omaha Off
GERS and their station with his work is
also a great help. The wireless COM
munication between the latter and the
Union Pacific station will probably be
continued after the show, according to
Er. Millener.
Last night he took another X-ray pic
trre Of a mans hand and also developed
the plate in the building, in sight of the
crowd. Tonight he will talk about cleo
trio welding n electro-plating, and, in
his W words, will have-a-' pipe dream
about the future possibilities of Omaha
getting electric power from the river and
even from the mountains. The doctor
doesn't smoke. but that kind of a pipe
dream will be all right, nevertheless.
