AT THE PLAY HOUSES.
"The Jame Boy la Mlssnarr at the
Km.
Unless It be thnt ft "get the money., no
good reason exist why a play like he one
now being offered at the Kru should be
offered on the stage at all, while many
very good reasons can be cited why It
should not be allowed to appear. A plrco
that ha for Its avowed aim the distortion
of history and the presentation of desperate
and despicable criminals In any but their
true light cannot fall to have ah evil In
fluence, and therefore should be forbidden
But "The Jame Boys In Missouri" con
tinues to draw crowded houses whenever
offered. The audience that witnessed it
production at the Krug last night wa one
that filled nil the available room in the
house, and which spent much time In ap
plaudlng the mock heroics anil platitudin
ous utterances that come from the pre
tended representatives of two of the blood
iest criminals ever known In the west
whose deed are still a shame to the state
they dlsgrnced for years. Even the Blue
Cut train robbery, where Jesse James com
mltted one of the moat wanton mtirder
that blackened his long career of 'cowardly
crime, is turned Into an apparent Justifica
tion of the awful career of- these brother.
In fact, no scintilla of truth or verisimili
tude 1 presented.
As to the company. It 1 composed of peo
ple Who could well be In better business
No complaint can be mnde of the presenta
tion of the piece, for each member of the
cast I capable and enact the role, set
down with skill and Judgment. 8oenlcally,
too, the piece has boon much Improved
ilnce It was first offered an a tentative
venture some three season ago, until now
It la one of the best equipped of the sort
presented. This makes Its power for harm
all the greater. The piece will be re
peated this evening, closing the engage

PINAFORE A DRAWING CARD

tion of Opera to a Crowded
Ilonae.
The smile and applause of a crowded
house at the Boyd last night proved that
thirty year have not dimmed the charm of
the old time comic opera, "Pinafore." After
long oblivion it comes up fresh apd spark
ling a when it first enchanted American
audiences In the late '70s.
Seventy-five of Omaha' amateurs pre
sented tho piece under the ausplocB of the
Knights of Columbus for the benefit of St.
James orphanage and the Home of tho
Good Shepherd. The immensity of the
spectacle glvea some Idea of the labor In
volved in staging the production. For
week the rehearsals have been going on
under the direction of Edward Norman
Kent, and it Is much to his credit that
"Pinafore" met with such a popular recep
tion. Tho seats had all been old long before
the day for the presentation vn.
sold for tho gallery until last night and It
usra to nold the overflow, which
turned out to be of such proportion that
that part of the theater was as full as the
parquet or balcony. All the boxe were
occupied, for the moot . ,.. .

FINISH OF CASE IS WARM
Conclusion of Araament In Defnne
Company's nlt Rrlna Clash
of Connsel.
One of the spiciest phases of a very spicy
case was developed In Judge Sears' court
Thursday morning. The argument were
being concluded In the case of the receiver
against the stockholders, or the alleged
stockholders of the Omaha Gas Engine
and Motor company, which once was, but
1 not.
H. If. Baldrlge, attorney for Gustav
Anderson and others, In an earnest review
of the evidence set forth fhat Mr. Ander
son had gone Into the company In fcood
faith, under tho representation of his
friends that It was a, good thing. He had
put up $2,500 in gold at the Commercial
National bank to Inventor II. K. Clover
and afterward had loaned the company
H,nnn and tl.BnO at two different time to
save its credit and keep It running.
"Anderson wns milked to a finish," said
Mr. Baldrlge, with some heat. "He Wa
left to hold the sack, while LlndqueRt got
out from under and recommended that hi
friend, Anderson, be made president In hi
stead.
Attorney J. I,. Webster, for Mr. Llnd
quest, followed Mr. Baldrlge. He Went
to the front for his client from the Jump
off with enthusiasm. Incisive analysis of
the company from It Inception was fol
lowed by a free uso of the term "con
splrator," "co-conspirator." "fraud on It
face," "fleecing of the Innocent public,"
aim Kinnrea assertion along that line.
Mr. Webster wa not at all sparing In hi
denunciation of an agreement or contract
between Howard K. Clover and Dr. F. E,
Coulter. Gunnnr A. Lindquest, the. tailor
stands to pay for 1,100 worth of stork at
probably SO cents on the dollar If he Is
held to be a stockholder. So his attorney's
efforts are being directed to proving that
ho could not have been, for the reason that
misrepresentation and other technical ob
stacles were in the way to prevent.
At the conclusion of the arguments
Thursday afternoon Judge Sear took the
case under advisement. It probably will
be some time before a decision Is rendered
as there Is a very long record to go
through and many exhibits to be exam'
ined, compared and sifted.

SfomachParalysis
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, properly
named, Is Paralysis of the Stomach.
When you have water-brash, feel
sick at the stomach, have gas or wind
on It, or feel as though you had a ball
or heavy weight In the pit of the
stomach after eating, and the nerves
and muscles of that organ cease to
act and digest your food, that stop
page In the process of digestion, to
call it properly. Is Paralysis of the
Stomach, and should be treated as
such. It Is perfect folly to assist the
stomach with dyspepsia remedies and
stimulants to dissolve the undigested
food. Tou may get relief, but at the
next meal you suffer again. The
proper treatment la to build up tho
worn out muscles and nerves of tho
stomach so that It can do its owa
work without assistance, and not only
digest the food you eat to-day but to
morrow and forever after; as Is dono,
by the use of Dr. Chase's Blood and
Nerve Food and Liver Food, which
have an Immediate action on the
nerves and muscles, that control di
gestion. The price of the Blood and
