This evening at he Boyd the bill will be "The Merchant of Venice." with Otis Skinner as Bhyloclc and Miss Ada Rehan as Portia. This will be the first appearance of either of these stars of the classic drama ' before an Omaha audience in the roles, but Miss Rehan ions SCO won her crown In the part of sweet and vivacious Portia, while Mr. Bklnner has been slven much praise for his portrayal of the Jew.

"Ten minutes for refreshments'." and what a scrambling ten minutes for pas sengers giving up their seats to rush from a train to a lunch counter to bolt a sand wich, their eyes glued on the clock, un easy that the train Is leaving -without them; coffee too hot to gulp down; every engine bell producing a nervous start; a feverish moment with the, check and a dash back to th train, ticket In one hand and pie in the other. This experience has given way to an innovation In traveling comforts oh the Pennsylvania Lines be tween Chicago and Pittsburg. While It Is but an Incident In the greater railroad achievements of rock ballast,' double tracks, steel rails, . stone bridges and lim ited trains In which the Pennsylvania Sys tem sets the pace, this latest provision for comfort In travel appeals to all who relish breakfast or luncheon In the quiet comfort of their seats in the coach and may not choose to avail themselves of the luxuries of the dining 'cars. On fast ex press No. 9, the daylight train from Pitts burg to Chicago over the Fort Wayne Route, and on train No. 6, from Chicago to Pittsburgh over the Fort Wayne, wait ers pass through the coaches, serving cof fee and sandwiches to passengers. No wild scramble around a lunch coun ter. Passengers, without leaving their seats, have breakfast and luncheon brought to them at moderate prices. They dine leisurely and In comfort. Over the cup of fragrant coffee for which the Pennsylvania dining cars are noted, the passenger may view the interesting pictures of Ohio and Indiana scenery. To women, who missed a cup of coffee rather than leave the car, this innovation by the , Pennsylvania Is a boon. New Time frpm Chicago la 1 O'clock P. M. Dally.
