AT THE
THEATER

TOMEDY dominates this week
| program at the Orpheum. If
~ you enjoy a series of hearty
laughs, the new bill at this vaude-
vile house is just what the doctor
ordered.
Harry Green, who appears in
George Washington Cohen" a
satrical comedy playlet, has been
here before in vehicle of similar
construction. Mr.. Green evokes
hearty laughs and that is the obvi-
Gus mission of the act.
Harry Hines has manner all
his own of delivering a merry line
of chatter and song, interspered
with some jazz steps. He is a
small chap with plenteous JUNCTION
and he has a confidential manner
with an audience. Jack Clifford, as
the elderly and elongated station
master of Jasper Junction, is a
classic in his line of burlesque. The
extracation of his legs from the arm
of a bench furnishes several min
utes of hilarity.
Local interest attaches to the ap-
pearence of the Lachmann sisters.
who do not happen to be natural
sisters, but who have a clever little
Sister" act. They are real Omaha
girls and are doing well in vaude-
vile for youngsters. Mark Nelson
is a juggling comedian who has a
rapid-fire act which is pleasing. Col
Inns and Hart are here again with
their strong man act in which they
apparently defy the law of gravita-
ton. Eddie Janis and Rene Chap
low, with violin, voice and feet, otter
an artistic act in which the violin
playing is meritorius. Topics OF
the Day." and Kilograms, the latter
showing the arrival of General
Pershing, are the screen offerings.
A big musical act, "The Cabaret
de Luxe" toplines the vaudeville
bill at the Empress, and justltles the
importance given it. 1t has MUM
Der of sprightly girls, who can sing,
dance and otherwise make them
selves agreeable to the watchers,
and thereby win a lot of merited
applause. Rose, Ellis and Rose,
"the jumping jacks" has distinct
air of novelty about it. 1t has been
a long time since a barrel jumper
showed his skill in Omaha, so this
trio is welcome, especially because
of the nimble way in which they do
their work. The Houltons, with
their little sketch, "a Summer Fir
tation," put their personality over

disciplined returned to school in the
afternoon with his father, a great,
big, red-faced farmer.
Il was standing near John when
they appeared
"'You manhandled my boy this
morning" the man Numbered at
John.
John explained; he said that the
boy had been unruly and had been
punished, as all boys who were un-
ruly would be.
Takes Gun from Father.
"The man beloved and stormed
like bull gone mad. Then he made
a grab at John. John pushed him
back. He didn't want to fight. But
the man wasn't amenable to reason.
He was mad as a halter.
"'Alright,' John said, and he was
as cool and calm as cucumber.
Alright he said, If you want to
fight, I'll fight. But first take that
gun out of your pocket and fight
like man.
The farmer backed away shame
facedly. John caught him, pulled the
gun from his pocket-a big revolver
and tossed it to one side. Then
they went to it. John knocked the
man down several times-finally
knocked him out. That ended it.
When the man came round he apol-
ogized. i.
A Boyhood Romance7
Perhaps, to the minds of many
persons will come conjecture as to
girls. Did John Pershing have "a
girl?" they will ask. Was there
someone in Laclede who might
have been Mrs. Pershing?
There is a hint, just a hint, of
romance in Johns life at this time.
There had come to Laclede just
few years before a family named
Artlip, and a daughter of the house,
Arabelle Artlip, was looked upon
as the prettiest girl in Laclede. La
clede folks do say that John, about
the time of his Prairie Mound days,

versatile talents in this story, for
she appears as charity worker and
a thief, a girl whose early environ
ment has nourished a character
none too exacting as to code of
honor. Finally she blossoms forth
into a woman whose slumbering
sense of right and wrong is awak-
ened by love. This is Triangle
picture. In support of Olive
Thomas are Joe King and William
V. Mong.
Clara Kimball Young at the
Strand in "The Better Wife" as an
American girl visiting in England,
plays her part in a most excellent
manner. She makes the acquaint-
ance of Sir Richard Beverly, Lady
Beverly and their little son, Richard.
Lady Beverly is having an affair
with another man. While driving
with her little son to a rendezvous
with her lover, she loses control
of her car and in a smash-up is
killed, while little Richard is badly
injured. Chairman Page Miss
Young) restores him to health.
Nearing the verge of bankruptcy
and realizing the power Chairman
has over his son, Sir Richard pro-
poses to her and is accepted. A
loveless marriage follows. Learning
of the faithlessness of his first
wife, Sir Richard begs his wife's
forgiveness. An educational Para
mount film, Harold Lloyd in
comedy, and Pathe Weekly, show
ing interesting scenes of General
Pershing's arrival in America, the
grand fleet in San Fran
cisco harbor, President Wilson in
St. Louis, and other interesting
scenes, conclude the program.

ONE TREE BEARS
SO KINDS FRUIT,
INCLUDING PEARS
75.Year.0Id Trunk Has 80
Different Apple Crafts and
Six Different Kinds
of Pears.

Findlay, Ohio, Sept. l4.-An ap-
pie tree growing thirty-two differ
emit kinds of apples and six differ
ent kinds of pears is one of the most
exceptional horticultural wonders
produced by Henry Flater, in years
of experimenting.
Practically all Of the apple gratis
are bearing regularly. Two of the
pear gratis have borne fruit OF an
exceptiona! quality. Others will bear
in coming seasons. All are vigorous,
regardless of the fact that they draw
sap from a trunk Of an alien va
riety.
Some of the Varieties.
Some of the different varieties
grown on this tree are: Yellow
Transparent, Red Astrakan. Wealthy
Fall. Rambo, Stayman, Wine Sap,
Delicious, VOL River. Arkansas
Black, Fall Pippin, Baldwin, Jona-
than, Winter, Banana, Summer
Maiden Blush, Winter Maiden
Blush, Northwestern Greening,
Gate Apple crossed with the Sum-
mer Sweet. Aldenburg, Rome Beat
ty, Fall Water, ti-English Ram
DO.
From July to October.
Apples are secured from the tree
from July until the latter part of
October. Flater has already sold
about $6 worth from one limb.
When Flater acquired the land the
tree, sole survivor of an aid orchard,
was a mere she'll. The hollow trunk
and decayed spots were filled with
cement and heavy chains were used
to hold the limbs together.
Instead of dying, the tree has
shown new life each year and no
one would suspect that it is now
seventy-five years old.
Wants Them Half and Half.
Flater this year has made gratis
to produce apples, half sweet and
half sour. 1t is done by laying two
slit buds of sweet and sour va
riety together in the same graft.
These gratis are growing, but have
not reached their bearing stage.
Flater feeds his apple trees plant
food to give the roots elements they
need in soil, exhausted by many
years of growth. He has worked
with many university horticlturists

he remarked, as l questioned his
wife. But there was a twinkle in
his eyes that belied his statement.
Mrs. Lomax blushed.
Why" she declared, there
wasn't any romance"
And by the way she said it one
knew there had been-a boy and
girl romance, one of those sweet,
clean boy and girl romances that
makes of this world a more beau
tiful place.

rles-the rumors-I had heard, but

Griffith's home-her father was
Colonel Griffitt-John wanted to
walk home with me. I chose to walk
home with another young man. John
didn't like it very we'll. But ro-
mance-no."
Tracing the generals life through
all the paths of it. one knows that
romance-whole-souled romance
was not to enter into it until he was
over 40. Then love came into it,
romance that will always be remem-
bered as one of the prettiest ro-
mances the army ever knew, but
romance, alas, which was to end
in such tragedy as plunged a whole
nation into grief-the tragedy of the
Preside. Yes, the nation incurred
with you, General Pershing.

Although he has travelled only
little more than 1000 miles OF his
l0,000-mile itinerary, and has been
on the road only about one-third of
the total time to- be consumed by
the trip, the president has made l8
of the SO set speeches on his sched-
ule. From this point on there will
be only few days on which his
plans call for more than one speech.
One speech day will be the rule
during all the coming week with the
exception of Tuesday, when there,
is no address on the schedule. He
will spend the entire week on the
Pacific coast, and from Tuesday
morning until Sunday night will be
in California, the home state of
Senator Johnson, leader among
the treaty opponents.
Leaving Seattle late tonight, the
president will speak tomorrow night
in Portland, Ore. Tuesday will be
spent on the train enroute to San
Francisco, where he will speak
Wednesday night. Thursday night
he will be in Oakland; Friday night
in San Diego and Saturday night
in Los Angeles. Because Of the
Tightening of his schedule Of set
