THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY. .TANTARY 7. 1005. " " ' I AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Citj Attornsj Lambrt it Preparing Amendments to Charter. WANTS TO CUT OUT LOT OF RES TAPE Advocates Single rabllratloa of fllf Ordlnanera laetead of lz Tlmri, aa la Stw the Lew. Cltjr Attorney Lambert Is working- on Dumber of amendment to the city char ter. "Ttu-oe amendment," Raid Mr. Lam bert last evening, "pertain to a few of the cumbersome working futures of tha char ter. One feature Is the uriisual tmmint of detail to be gone through In the calling of a special mc-etir.g of the. city council. A It la now.' there la too much red tap about the calling of surh meetings, and I thin about half of the performance could be done away with and at the sr.me time not Injure the property owners In the least." Another proposed chance Is In regard to pecl.il lmpro-ements. These petitions are o regulated now that It takes a long time and a lot of work to get a petition prop erly presented. Some of the tape will be cut off these petitions if the city attorney has hla way. Another feature Is the adver tising of ordinances. Mr. Lambert con tends tha city ordinances are being pub lished six times where one time Is suffi cient. He proposes In his amendment to the charter to cut the cost of advertising ordi nances down oiv-balf. Last year the pub lication of ordinances coat the city some thing like $5,000. Lamlert declares half of this sum will pay for the work providing the charter may be so amended as to print only the misdemeanor ordinances six times and Improvement ordinances once. Other ordinances, r e declare?, need not be printed. Kutelle Will Install. This evening members of post No. 2, Grand Army of the Republic, will meet at Masonic hall for the Installation of officers.

Hubert Henry Davles' very pretty comedy is one that doesn't tire, even In repetition. It has a human touch, such aa few aeem to be able to achieve that Is, it shows a side of life that Is not very often exposed to Inspection. The deeper emotions are the continual subject for. one class of writers and the lighter and more superficial for an other; but Davles has tapptd the Interme diate vein that discloses the real man and the real woman. It Is the pretty contract between different naturea that gives 'X'ou1n Kate" Its distinctive Individuality and makes It one of the few really delicious modern dmedies. Mies Roselle Knott Is presenting this for her second season's venture as a star, and is achieving much success In the title role. She has a decided capacity for the expres sion of the lighter moods of the part, and some of her more penous scenes are in vested with a tenderness that Is very effec tive. It is rather difficult for Miss Knott to be merely sober, and what part of her character demands this treatment suffers accordingly. Just at present she is afpar ently suffering from a cold that givea her voice an unpleasant twang. William Corbett makes a good Heath Desmond, but rather reverses the order, for he shows to better advantage In his seri ousness than In his efforts at being merely airy. In the Introductory scene with Kato Curtis he gives one the impression that he is doing what he does because It is pre scribed by the directions for the part, rather than because It ia the natural act of a merry-hearted, unconventional man. It may be atavistic, but Rev. James Bartlett lr the hands of II. Howard Smith reminds one Irresistibly of the Presbyterian min ister who appeared at Muldoon's house on the morning of the picnic, and If he were to announce In his sepulchral tones, "I have come to attend the christening," one would not be surprised. If Mr. Smith would only give the matter a little thought he would realise that It la comedy and not farce he is playing, and that young min isters may be very earnest, and even offen sively bigoted, ind still eat heartily, and that one may look clerical without looking funereal. Even a locum tenens Is entitled to smile and talk rationally at times. Miss King's Amy Spencer shows an Intelligent effort to make the part what It ought to be. The audience at the opening performance of the comedy at the Boyd last night was not large, but It waa well entertained. 'Cousin Kate" will be repeated at a mati nee this afternoon and again this evening. Bryant Stole Tools. Charles Bryant, who has been rooming at the Nebraska house, was arrested last evening while trying to dispose of some carpenters' tools at the pawn shop of John Corby at 4 South Tenth street, by De tectives Drummy and Maloney. He ad mitted that he had stolen them from a tool house in East Omaha and that they belonged to Pete Klausen, but that he did not know where Klausen lived. The offi cers at the station could not find anybody by that name In the Omaha directory and so have come to the conclusion that Klausen lives In East Omaha. And they FREE ADVICE ON CURING DR.

One of the large eventa scheduled to be held In the Auditorium next summer Is a pure food exhibit to be under the Joint aus pices of the Nebraska Retail Merchants' association and the Omaha Retail Grocers' association. The exhibit Is to be given fix ten days, from August 14 to 14, and bids fair, judging from present indications, to eclipse any previous event of a slmliar na ture ever held in Omaha. . The question cf pure food being one of the subjects at present uppermost In the American mind, thes food shows are' be coming much in vogue throughout the country. They not only serve to bring the manufacturer and consumer in close touih but they go a long way In the matter of educating the housewife In the preparation of certain foods, and also In the serving of the same articles. These pure food shows are entertaining and Instructive. In many large cities they are becoming annual eventa, an much so as the horse shows, musical festivals and other events. One of the features of the show to be given here In August will appeal particu larly to the women, this feature being the free daily demonstrations, with the distri bution of samples to all. Then there will also be distributions of prepared foods and other articles used In the commissary de partment of every home. A woman will be able to attend the show and get the price of admission back In samples, to say noth ing of the entertainment and instruction she will receive. Local retail dealers and Jobbers are look ing forward with much interest to the show. Even at this early date Interest Is being worked up by the promoters, so that when the .lext dog days are here It will only be necessary for Manager Glllnn to swing wide open hia gates at the Audi torium. It Is announced that many of the most prominent manufacturers of staple articles and pure and prepared foods will be represented at the show. Marriage License.
