Few o( tho thousands of music lovcra In
Omaha and ndjacent towns and sections who
nro planning to enjoy tho season of llcll
etedt Imtid concerts which v. Ill open In tho
tent nt Fourteenth and Capitol avenuo Mon
day evening, Iihvo the slightest conception of
tho Incosfnut Inhor involved In laying ami
executing the plana for this promising en
tertainment. Tho movement wan born of an
ambition to augment tho attractions that
Omaha will present to visitors from abroad
during ,k-Sar-Ilen week.
Thin oxcollcnt musical organization per
formed during the latter portion of the
Greater America exposition, delighting tho
crowds that visited tho Grand I'laia, was re
puted to have been the greatest drawing card
at tho exposition nnd had fairly won the
hearts of the music lovcra of Omaha and vi
cinity. Tho proposition to bring It to
Omaha for u series of fall concerts met an
expression of hearty sympathy from many
Omaha people, and when the Homo Tat
ronngt' bureau, after several meetings, de
elded upon its plana for a fall exposition,
there developed an Independent movement
In the direction of a festival of music as an
adjunct to tho Ak-Sar-llen festivities.
Ah a result of this demand for music a
meeting of all Interested was held nt tho
Commercial club. It was suggested that tho
llellstrdt band could bo secured for n scries
of concerts lasting four weeks, at a compel!
ration of about 1 1 .500 11 week. A strong
sentiment developed In favor of effecting
somo arrangement whereby It could be
brought to Omaha, not only becnuse thoi.0
Interested In tho meetings desired to hear It
ngnln, but because It was thought that It
would aid In securing nnd entertnlnlng large
crowds during Ak-Sar-llen week. It wns
proposed that a guaranty fund be rnlsed to
bring the llellstrdt or some otln r bind to the
city, and It Ik recalled that Jay I'oiter, who
was ono of the men In nttendance nt tho
meeting, suggested hlH readiness to Invest
$6on in such a venture.
An effort was mndo to Interest tho Knights
of Ak-Bar-llen In the project, but lis leaders
leld off, fearing that It might Interfere with
Bomo of their own plans. The gentlemen
Interested, however, decided to go nhead
with tho project, with the understanding
that any ptofllH that might arise should bo
devoted to the establishment of a fund that
nhould form tho nucleus of a fund for tho
erection of an auditorium. It was decided
to organize a promotive committee nnd so
licit tho business men of Omaha to subscribe
either to n guaranty fund or for the pur
chase of tickets to the proposed concerts.
Seriii-t' itini-iitit l'uiiil.
There was an Impioniplu canvnss of the
city for subscriptions to the guaranty fund,
with the result that within n few days the
necessary $6,000 was m-curod to cover any
possible loss that might result from the en
gagement of tho band, while tho committee
nlso met with a most encouraging demand
for tickets, whHi wero sold in book form,
twenty tickets In each book, for $5.
Tho promotion of tho concert has been In
tho hands of an executlvo committeo se
lected from the many who manifested uu In
terest In tho project, among tho most active
promoters being Scrrotnry Utt, F. H. San
born, A. Ilospe, .1. S. White, 0. S. Klgutter.
C. C Hosew ater. V. S. Wright, Fred I'often
rath, (i. W. lloobler, W. W. I'mstcd, Jay
Foster, C. U. Thompson, Clement Chajo and
K. R. Andrews. F. K. Sanborn wns nindo
chairman of tho executive committee and
Clement ( Chaso secretary. Working com
mittees wero appointed on program, build
ings nnd property, music, advertising ami
concessions, end meetings have been held
three times a week.
Ah tho work progressed It was found to
bo attended with much heavier expensu thnu
had at llrtt bcon anticipated, and at one tlmo
tho piomotcrs who hail obllgtitcd themselves
for any possible deficiency were lncliucd to
bo a little frightened. Owing to tho city's
lack of a sultabln building for such an en
tei talnment it was found necessary to hold
it In a tent, and the rent of such n structure,
furnishing It with seats, lighting and dec
orations, the renting of the grounds nnd put
ting them In condition, the engagement of
tho necessary labor and attendants, tho ad
vertising and kindred expenses ran tho total
expense up to nearly $11,00'). It wns found
thnt to hccuro the band, equipped for such
Hervlco as was required, would absorb about
7,500 of this nmount.
iicUelH lti-ntllly Taken.
Much to the graduation of the promotive
committeo the vigorous and persistent can
vnss of tho city for the Bnlo of tickets met
with an increasing nnd hearty responso and
ot tho lost meeting of the executlvo commit
teo reports showed that tho advance sales
had leached n total of about Jit, 000, with a
flattering prospoct of further heavy patron
age. Tho tent has a seating capacity of 3,750,
which can bo Increased on special occasions
to 4.600. Tho baud la under contrnct to

Tho greatest Interest, perhaps, centers
In tho attractions of the Mldwny and this

promises to rank up with tho Mldwny
which was tho big end of tho Greater

Among tho Mldwny attractions already

whoso manager offers $3,000 for n husband;
"llosco, tho Australian Snnko Eater," "Tho
Falnce of Illusions," "Tho Mack America."
"Tho Opsy Camp" and many others. The
attendance Is estimated conservatively at
from 150,000 up, and If based on tho aver
age attendance, of street carnivals held In
other cities, It will bo nearer 250.000. Since
the announcement has been made that on
Wedding day thero will be a public wed
ding on tho arena atago both afternoon

If you aro going to the World's fair at

take with you a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Dlahhhoea remedy. It
Is not sold In Paris and Is almost certain
to bo needed on tho trip. After you have
callod In a French physician and paid him
for his services and paid for the mcdlclno

WHY HE IS A REPUBLICAN'
Attorney Wapplch Gives His Reason for
Lo .ving tho Bryanocrats.
TOO MUCH FR0SPERITY IN THE COUNTRY
,o Senp In TrjIiiK: to Work the
Ciiliiiult)- Itnoket When I.nliorcn
Are Wnutcd an Until)- n
nt I'resenl,
Members of the Eighth Wnrd Uepubllcan
club had chargo of tho republican rally
held at tho Millard hotel last night. Tho
club, seventy-flvo strong, headed by a flfo
and drum corps, marched from Its head
quarters to tho Millard and attracted con
siderable attention along tho route.
Tho address of the ovenlng was delivered
by Attorney W. F. Wapplch, who told why
ho became n republican. In tho first placo
Mr. wnpplen said that ho was n repub
lican beeauso he believed In tho Declara
tion of Independence and next because he
believed In tho constitution of tho t'nltcd
States. Another reason was that ho be
lieved and had faith In tho policy of l'resl-
dent McKlnley nnd especially In connec
tion with the rhlllpplno war. Further ho
believed In sound and stablo money and
tho republicans stood for n dollar worth
100 cents In any portion of tho globe. "And
finally," said Mr. Wapplch, "because thero
Is prosperity throughout tho length and
breadth of America."
Then tho stoker told nboilt his rxpcrl-
enco In tho democratic camp and why ho
had been forced to leavo tho party ho had
worked In for fifteen years. Ho said that
ho wan not a soro head and had not de
serted tho democrats beeauso ho did not
get nn office, for ho never was nn otllco
seekcr, but for far better reasons.
In tho first place ho said that ho did not
bollevo In the teachings of tho popullsttc
party and then again ho did not favor
fusion. Again ho did not bellco In polit
ical trusts, nor In giving nld and comfort
to tho Filipinos. This reason wns enlarged
upon nnd tho Hpeakcr said that llryan nnd
his followers were credited with nldlng tho
Filipinos, who nro in open rebellion ngnlnst
tho authority of the I'nlted States.
"These," said Mr. Wapplch. "nro sound
and patriotic reasons why I do not bcllovo
In democracy.
Continuing, he said thnt no gotd demo
crat could support tho Kansas City plat
form. Thero was more prosperity In tho
country now, ho asserted, than at any tlmo
In tho history of tho United States. Men
tion wns made of tho numerous mnsslvo
buildings now being constructed In Omaha
ns an ovldcnco that tho peoplo were pros
perous. 'Mechanics were receiving better
wngeB than they did four years ago and It
Is now a hard matter for employment
ngencles to securo all tho help wanted. In
this connection Attorney Wapplch said
that In 18U6 thero was only one employ
ment oflleo on lower Farnam street, whllo
now thero aro seven. Then applicants for
positions wero compelled to pay a fee to
tho agency, nnd, if tho work was out ot
town, buy a half-faro railroad ticket. Now
no foo Is exacted from applicants and freo
transportation is furnished. In tho opin
ion of tho speaker 1.000 men can securo
work by applying nt tho sevon employ
ment ofllces on lower Fnrnnm street.
Mr. Wapplch was followed by A. W. Jcf
fcrls and Harry Uromc.

Frank Marsh, cashier of tho street rail
way company, hns returned from n six
weeks' visit In tho DIack Hills. Most of
tho tlmo Mr. Marsh spent In Deadwood,
where his brother, Chnrles, Is manager of a
lending hotel.
"I havo spent my summers In tho lllack
Hills for several years past," said Mr.
Marsh, "but never saw so many tourists
thero as this season. In Hot Springs every
hotel accommodation was taken and thero
wero never ho many visitors as this year.
To my mind no better Indication of tho
prosperity of Nebraska peoplo could bo
cited, for most of tho visitors wore No-
braskans. A summer outing comes In tho
nnturo of n luxury and If the peoplo didn't
have n surplus of money they naturally
wouldn't bo nblo to enjoy such a vncatlon
nutlng. Tho majority of tho people, too.
wero men of moderato means from tho
smaller cities and towns of the state, and
In many Instances they wero accompanied
by their families nnd stayed nt tho best
hntelu for weeks at a time.
"In tho northern hills everything Is
booming. Especially Is tbla so at Load,
whero mining operations wero never so
nctlvo as they havo been this summer.
New capital la coming In nnd properties
am being developed that hail never before
been touched. Lead Is being built up In a
most substantial manner In tho largu area
which wns swept by flro last spring. One
ot tho most marked Improvements Is n
handsome new hotel now under construc
tion. Lead shows u big gain in population
by tho last census and a reduction almost
corresponding In numbers Is shown by tho
Dcndwood returns. This Is n most disap
pointing state of affairs to tho Deadwood
peoplo, for they rcalizo that Lead Is be
coming a formldnblo rival for tho Influence
of tho mining and commercial metropolis
of tho lllack Hills.
"These conditions nro naturally condu
clvo to republican gains and It Is con
ceded that Lawrence county, In which
Deadwood and Lead aro both situated, will
roll up a republican majority larger than
at nny tlmo In Its history, reversing sev
eral times over tho majority given llryan
four years ago."

ducts at tho Oriental carnival.
Somo tlmo ago tho association nrrunged
with Mannger Allen of tho Driving park
for holding tho fair on his grounds, but
when tho Oriental carnival was broached
it was deemed ndvlsablo to make other
arrangements. Committees from tho Ak-Sar-Men

stated tho case fairly nnd squarely. It was
argued that even with a large numbor of
visitors In tho city during carnival week
fnw would Journey so far from tho center
of attractions ns tho Driving park, whllo
on tho other hand tho association's ex
hibit would add materially to tho car

that tho splendid exhibits In tho agri

South Omaha Nows . k
It Is claimed thnt the census report for
1S!0 will show that no other city In the
United States has had such a marked In
crease in population during the pntt dec
ade as South Omaha. In 15S6, when tho
i town was first organized, the site of the city
I was a farm under cultivation. Old residents
describo tho first board meeting ns having
. created great excitement nmong the few peo
I plo who hnd located hero. To ubo their word
ing, they "Jumped ditches and waded tnufl
' holes," nnd when they arrived at the house
j In which the meeting was to be held their
I appearance was so bedraggled that the owner
''of the building protested against their com
ing Into the room.
At tho tlmo the town wns organized thero
wns some small packing Industry here, but
It wns limited. Hammond nnd Fowler liros.
operated about the only real packing houses.
In 1SS8 the Omaha Tacking company pur
chased tho Fowler plant and rebuilt It. In
1SS7 Cuduhy nnd Armour located a Joint
plant here. Swift nnd Company camo In

establishment, and In 1S9S Armour erected

they havo been rebuilt, or added to, until
they present one of tho flncst groups of pack

Appropriation!),
F. II, Newell, hydrographcr of tho United
States geological survey, passed through
tho city yesterday on his way from Wyo
ming to Washington, D. (V. and called
upon Sccretury Utt of the Commercial club.
Mr. Newell Is Interested principally In Ir
rigation. Fursuant to his orders ho at
tempts to Interest others In the building
of reservoirs for the conservation and dis
tribution of water throughout tho rich but
scml-arld sections of tho middle west. Mr.
Utt told him thnt tile Commercial club
had already decided upon n course of action
looking toward tho encouragement of
Irrigation. Somo tlmo In November, sold
he, tho club hopes to assemble socral of
the western congressmen In Omaha whllo
they nro on their way to Washington and
entertain them at a meeting, at which
will bo urged upon their attention the
necessity of a national appropriation to
assist In extending tho Irrigated area ot
soveral of tho western htates.
"In order to get tho best reeults from Ir
rigation," said Mr. Newell, "and to benefit
the lnrgest scope of country It will bo
necessnry for tho expense to bo defrayed
by municipal, stato or national appropria
tion, according to conditions, as It doesn't
pay n private Investor lo build reservoirs
and big ditches. It doesn't pay any moro
than It would pay to build n lighthouse.
Still, tho farmers who get tho benefit of
Irrigation make money. If tho west stands
together In this matter I havo no doubt
that wo will be able to uccompltsh some
thing In tho way of an appropriation."
Mr. Newell for several months has been
In Wyoming nnd Colorado, whero ho has
measured rivers, surveyed reservoir sites
and investigated artesian conditions.
I hsil u running sore on my leg for seven
years," writes Mrs. Jus. Forest of Chip
pewa Falls;, Wis., "and spent hundreds of
dollars In trying to get It healed. Two
