Crratwt Musical Comedy That Has
Visited I'latUir.outli in Years, and
With More Pretty Girls.
From Friday's Dailv.
And now comes the new musical
lay with an airy, topical title of
-September .Mom," a cute, lively
iry that fairly convulses the auui
t i.ee as every Lit of crisp, w itty dia
kgue an. I laughable situations are
rrt sented. and one finds his or her
.-elf humming or whistlin.tr the jingly
jr.es after the catch music is reeled
off by the harmonious voices of the
augmented chorus and feature sonars
of the principal-;. The story roes
with a hurrah, as Rudolph Plastric, a
vould-be artist, who claims to have
fainted the celebrated Chaba's pic
ture called "September Morn" (but in
icaiity cannot paint the side of a
n and do it wt'.I), continues to get
himself in tight places. . Leo Green
wood, the comedian of real, entertain
i r method.-, has the role of Rudolph,
; r.d his antics go with a scream. An
;.clicss claims to be the original
r.i 'del of the popular picture and she
i i.-t:-uots her publicity promoter to
1 tr. t her as the leal "September
Morn," who was r.ot afiaid to bathe
i-i the open or the lake or whatever
ii was. The dodging of Rudolph an 1
the act re-, both knowing they are
in.po-t'!.;. creates no end of jovial
Ih.e avd situation. A bluff army of-:l-.-er
also gets mixed up in the af
fairs of the lady thespian, in fact,
falls in love with her. only to find
that she is his wife's ilea rest friend.

put down with a swift left swing to

to take the count, but as soon as she
iccovered the smoke of verbal battle
raged for .some time.
Yesterday afternoon a complaint
was filed in the office of Judge Arch

was assaulted and threatened, and to

Judge Archer decided to stage the

MISS SEVA JOHNSON EN
TERTAINS C. C. GLOB OF
nun
Saturday afternoon Miss Svea
Johnton of this city entertained the
C. C. club of Omaha at a linen shower
for Miss Judith Johnson of that city
and former president of the associa
tion, whose engagement was recently
announced at a Christmas party at
the home of the president. The young
ladies were served an appetizing din
ner at 2 o'clock, after which the
merry-making began. The first feat
ure of the afternoon was a writing
game in which proposals, acceptances
and rejections were written and the
judges
it quite difficult
m
choosing the winner, but finally the
prize was awarded to Miss Ellen
Goodey, whose proposal was a poor
stuttering individual. Next the girls
were to prove for what they were go
ing to marry, love or money. A large
white heart containing two smaller
hearts, one red and one gold, was
fastened to the wall and on the op
posite side of the room each girl was
given a small linen covered ball to
toss at the heart she most preferred.
It seemed that Dan Cupid was out in
this game. After this the bride-elect
v. as ushered into the parlor and told
to be seated under the large white
linen parasol, which was draped in
k.vender hearts (these being the club
colors) and suspended from the
chandalicr. The girls then surround
ed their object of love and tossing
iheir linen tokens at her, which came
from above in some mysterious way.
At ' o'clock they all participated in a
dainty luncheon. The place cards
rere riced snapshots of Miss Johnson
and an incognito which were pasted
belts and blurts now at
money-savieg prices!

piece was a linen covered hoop in the

throughout the rooms were lavender
