Owing: to .previous exposition of ;h matter, Omaha, folk were In a large neasur prepared .to expect what "The ftoyal Chef had to offer, but they were lardly prepared to ee the bright, fresh' Sacea of th company, nor the clean new soslumes, and th spick and span scenery rlth which the troupo I outfitted. Pome iilngs may ba gmlss In connection with the performance; ' the broiler, for ex tmple, have almost reached the stage here they would bo better baked, but ihey are merely plumper and for that reaaon all th mora dealrable from point f appearance. It 1 not the molt nu Tierou chorus that haa been seen at the Boyd, but It 1 a. willing bunch, and keeps folnr all th time. And It doesn't show my angles Just curve. This Is one thing In favor of th chorus. Mr. McCarthy Is making a whole lot )f fun out of Lemphauser, and won three :urtaln calls last night with his song about going back to Chicago. Oacar Ragland haa a baritone voice of great owr and of sweet tone quality, which hVtlaes to It limit, whll Herbert Carter ret an excellent chance for hla service able tenor. Mis H,utcheson I the prima donna of th company, her voice being equal to the requirement of her song. Dorothy Rae la a quaint little soubrette, with a bit of a brogue and . a kick and a wink that max mean much or nothing. The other, principals are well fitted for thetr places. " - Th audler.be at the Boyd last night appeared to enjoy the piece very much and oheered the singers and comedian by unstinted applause. The engagement lasts tUl, after .Wednesday night, with a matinee on Wednesday afternoon. "Th Bargomaster" at the Km. A atandlng room only sign at the Krug last night waa ample proof that the American public' -enjoyed witnessing the antic of old; Peter Stuyresant as Frank Flxley Ha portrayed them In the musical medy, "Th Burgomaster." Old Peter hobbled around the atagn much like he did when he waa first Introduced to the musical comedy "fans" of Omaha several years ago. J The comedy haa been criticised for his torical Inaccuracies, .put .the .management ha prepared any In tho audience who might be shocked by the lapse by a pot In which It clears up everything. ' The tendency to wander from the patha of fact Into the byways of fiction will be for given because of the entertaining possi bilities opened up. The piece as presented by Mr. Oullen has been recast In the second act and 'a lawn fete Introduced, which gives Mr. Weinberg and Miss White a dialect speech on "Frenxled Finance" which Is exceedingly funny, and Miss White, with a chorus, sings Bob Adams' song, "How Many Have You Told That To?" In this aot the Lockhart sisters are seen In a couple of dancing specialties. The old musical favorites are retained and the "Tale of the Kangaroo" song and dance made a strong hit, as did several topical songs. Qua Weinberg ha a Dutch dialect and a habit for injecting fun Into hla situa tion which make him a very acceptable Peter Stuyveaant, and wa very ably sec onded by Leo Kendall a Doodle, Peter' secretary. Miss Ruth Whit a Willie Vanaatorbltt Is well equipped for the part and wa repeatedly encored In her song numbers. Th rest of the oaat la generally fair. I Owing to th .fact the compary traveled all night Saturday night and will have to travel all night Monday night, the man . agemept ha announced th special matinee advertised for this afternoon will not be given.

It was a curtain talk and Mr. Wilson had It coming, He and hla associates, Ada Lane and Albert Green, presented what they called an "Up heaval In Darktown," and created an up heaval in the OTpheum theater. They really have om nw Joke and they also have as fine a II a of talk a haa been brought In for a little while; It doesn't suffer to any appreciate! degree by comparison with the liobart talk passed up a little further on, though Job ft Henry carries awny his shara of th cheers. Mr. Wilson and his company were called back several times when their work waa ovec, and he waa forced to come 14 with Tew word. He told th audience that as luuoh as it liked htm and his associates It only Used them half aa much a they "liked It! Th bill contain oma other.

Pending th establishment of permanent headquarter local democrats expect to ob tain Inspiration for the csmpalgn In Doug iss county from the Bryan dinner to be given at Lincoln September it. Frank I Weaver, chairman of the new county com mittee, declared Monday he favored taking the entire committee down to Lincoln In a body to drink inspiration from the fountain-head of democracy. By this means he hopes to stir up th fighting blood of the members of the committee, many of whom are young men and comparatively new to political campaigns. It has not been decided definitely whether this plan will be carried out or not. It la understood at least loo democrats will attend the din ner whether the entire committee goes or not and the affair will mark the opening of tho campaign In this county. So far little active work has been done by either committee. The democrats for mally organised Saturday, but the repub licans have rot come together yet, the meeting being called for Wedneday after noon. Both committees are already figur ing on rooms for headquarters, but neither has been definitely located yet. Chairman Learned of the republican committee la away on hla vacation and nothing definite will be done until his return. Mr. Weaver says a hard fight will be made by the democrats to elect the entire ticket, but among the rank and file It Is said to be pretty generally understood that tho workers will concentrate their efforts on two or three candidates In the hope of pulling them through. CLAIMS SHE IS BEWITCHED Woman Anaerte that Her Neighbor I see Occalt Science n Her. Trouble between the Brunk. family at aiS South Eighteenth street and the neigh bors was declared by witnesses In Juvenile court Monday to arise from the fact that Mrs. Brunk believe one of her neighbors has bewitched her and ruined her health through occult means. The complaint In JuvenlWj court was against George Brunk, a 12-year-old boy who, It waa asserted, bothered the neighbors and the teachers and pupils at the Castellar school. The complaint was brought by Mrs. Copeland. one of the neighbors. "Eighteen years ago," said Mr.' Cope land, "Mrs. Brunk accused mo Of bewitch ing her girl baby. The girl has since grown up and Is now marrird and I supposed the delusion had passed. Since then she ' has had very poor health, and not long ago she came to me and told me ahe believed I acted through spirits to ruin her health. She said she read It In the Book of Moses and she begged me to give her back her health. I think th whole trouble I be cause of th hatred she has stirred up In her boys against us because of this, de lusion." , ; . It came out . that George Is subject to epileptic attacks and 'Judge Kennedy will try to find some Institution In which he ran receive treatment. In the meantime the case will be held up.. FINK TO APPEAL TO COUNCIL Treasurer Will Ask for 'Advice In ' Disposing; of lesvenger Tax Certificates. The ctty treasurer will present to the city council at a meeting soon to be held a suggestion that some steps be taken lo dispose of the scavenger tax certificates now being held; by the city.' There aro more than 1,100 such certificates, repre senting a face value of about 1280,000. They have come over from several scavenger sales where the bids were not equal to what the olty considered the value of the property and from casea wher no bids were made. It Is suggested that these certificates represent no real value as fsr as the city Is concerned, the municipality neither desiring the property nor being able to realise on the certificates except where persons will buy them. The treasurer says since the matter went Into court he haa no power to act and desires the council to dispose of the certi ficates. It has been suggested that the city go Into court and have the sale con firmed and then offer the land for sal to the highest bidder. Mr. Fink I not tn favor of this plan and thinks tha city should have ,th sale set aside and read vertlse the land for sale again under the scavenger act In hope that the city would have bettor luck next time.

Th council will meet tonight, and unless another member returns to the city adjournment will be taken for a week. The absence ef Mr. Elsasser, who has gone to Mis souri, and the fact that four members have gone to the Jamestown exposition to attend the meeting of the League of American Municipalities accounta for tho dearth of councllmen.

HEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Market Show Some Sign ef Exercise t Benevolent Cetlrtl, ;o sv.w Aitpo) jxjsiu H-X)) M "I tuatuat AnnKls tiA-M J0.-8 'MMOA AV3N two mind still about the proper action to take to fitly represent th chances of the future. The market gave some signs of the exercise of a benevolent control, which de terred the professional bears from attack ing prices with the sans unreserve that they showed towards the latter pert of last week. On the other hand, wnen th support for the market had achieved Its purpose of checking th sggresslve opera tions of the bears there was a halting dis position manifested which offered no en couragement to pursue eperatlons on the king side of the market. These facta serve to explain the fact that the bears, sftet selling stocks to a lower level after the opening, turned around snd bought sgaln tc cover shorts,- Inducing the brisk rally. Aftr that the market dropped Into a condition of apathy and the volume of dealings fell to Inslgnltlcsnt proportions. The special feature In the copper situation that commanded the the most attention was the pressure the producers had been under to postpone a cut In prices to en sble insnufacturers to work off stock pur chased st tho higher level, with contracts for finished products mads on that basis. The maintenance of this price level Is given part as responsibility for the dimin ished demand for products which has par ly led the copper market nnd leaves a hope Open that demand will revive when price are readjusted to the new level of copper throtwh the finished branches of the trade. A further reduction In the price .of metsl, both In London and at the local metal ex change, overthrew most of this better feel ing. The United States stocks were under pressure again In sympathy with the cop pers, the preferred felling to below K. Rail road stocks were free from depression by compsrlson with the weakness In the in dustrial Itst and showed periods of strength. There were some Isrge dividends In course of pymnt and the call money market was hard In consequence. The tendency of ex change here waa downward. Incidents of the day were pronounced breaks In both cotton and corn, representing the forma tion of more hopeful opinions over th di mensions of those crops. Fears of reduc tion of dividends by copper compsnles made them subjects for a large part of the dsy's discussion. Bonds were hesvy. Total sales, par value, it. 198,000.

Btrlctly good beef cattle were by no means plentiful at this point and the mar ket on desirable killers waa generally quoted as steady to 10 lower. Still th trade was very slow and it waa late In the forenoon before any business whatever wss transacted. . - v The offerings of cows wer extremely r.'STT' ov'r 100 c'osds being on sale. With so many cattle to choose from buy ers were naturally Inclined to take their time and the market waa a drag from start to finish. Now and thsn sales of something that just happened to suit a buyer did not look so very much lower, but as a rule prices were lOo lower and In spots lOdJlie lower. It was late In the afternoon before anything like a clearance waa effected, Stockers and feeders also participated In the general downward movement of prlcea. Some certain kinds of cattle that Just happened to fill an order brought prlcea not materially different from the close of last week, but the general market was right at lOo lower and far from active at the decline.

St. Louis 145 CHICAGO GRAIN A.D ritOVISIOIfS Features of the Trading; and Closing; Prices on TJnnrd of Trade. . CHICAGO, Sept. 16 Wet wenther and low temperature In tho Oansdian north west caused an advance today of more than 1 cent In the price of wheat on the local exchange. At the closo the Decem ber delivery showed a net gain of 4fic. Corn was down io. Oats were 4tJ'va lower. Provisions were unchanged to 5o higher. The wheat market wss strong all dny. At tho opening the demand was active and general, but later, trade dwindled to email proportions. Th chief reason for th strength was the unfavorable weather In the Canadian northwest, where the hor veattnir haa .hiwn rttfila ft - int lha nut. The market was also bunlshly affected by weekly statistics. The smount of bread stuffs on ocean pass ape showc 1 a decrease of 1,416,U)0 bu. for the week, nnd world's shipments were only 8,030,000 bu.. against 10,362,(410 bu. for the some week last year. The visible supply increased 1,647,000 bu.. against an Increase of l,o?9,0u0 hu. last year. The market closed strong. Decem ber opened &a to VjHc higher, at 9H 60c. advanced to Mc and closed at 90c. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 876.000 bu. Primary receipts were not available. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported receipts of 772 cars, against 601 cars and 8fiS c.dra one year ago. The corn market was extemely weak be cause of Ideal weather for trie maturing of the new crop. Local receipts were much more liberal, and this weakened the mar ket. The marknt whs steadier during the last half of the session beouuse of the strength of whest. The close was wesk, Dwember opened HSIVic lower, at 66'aO 6tH4. advanced to b6c and closed at &Wt. . Local receipts were 934 cars, with 398 of? contract grade. Because of the congestion In the fteptember dollvery there waa little I Incentive tn trade In oats and the volume I of business was smalt.
