THE STRAND WILL
OPEN ONJUESDAY
Remodeled Theater at Eighteenth
and Douglas Made a Real
Bower of Beauty.
SCREEN AT BACK OF THE STAGE
Completely remodeled, renovated and
made beautiful as a Rummer garden In
the moonlight, the Strand theater will
rrn Its rtoora to Omaha this evening.
The Strand la at the northeast corner
of Eighteenth and Douglas streets. Wha'
Ja say, that's the American? Sure. It
used to be the American, but since t
has been remodeled and rejuvenated It
has changsd its name. It's the Strand,
high class moving pictures, a two-hour
show with an eight piece orchestra and
when the orchestra Isn't on the job
there's a 17,600 pipe organ to dispense
melodr.
The company that Is opening the Strand
controls the Garden theater In Dee
Moines, ths Casino la Davenport and Is
building a new 1100,009 theater In Daven
port. The main motif of the Interior decor
ative scheme ot the new house Is red.
Many of the lights are hidden In wicker
baskets of flowers, hanging from the
ceilings in the bores and corners and
Tinder the balcony, giving a charming ef
fect when the lights are turned on.
In fact there are boxes and baskets ot
flowers everywhere and vines trail out
of boxes In the lobby and palms and
lerns make green the corners, and birds
ni.g in their cages.
Made Heal Homelike.
A big rug on the lobby floor with a
great urn of flowers standing In the
center makes the photoplay anteroom a
homelike place and superlatively invit
ing. The screen stands at the bacl of the
stage, thus giving the best ran of
vision for easy viewing of the pictures.
The pipe organ stands on the left side
of the stage and the keyboard Is In the
orchestra pit, while the electric bellows
Is under the stage. The organ Is a Hope
Jones unit of the same make as the
150,000 organ in the Cort theater, Chicago.
This one cost $7,600 and Is of fine tone.
During the principal hours of the show
music will be furnished by the organ and
the eight-piece orchestra under direction
of Carl Lamp.
The first show will begin at. 7 o'clock
Tuesday evening. Shows will be given
every day at 1, 3, 6, 7 and o'clock. The

ASKS CITY TO APPROVE
CITY LIGHT AUDITORS
J. A. Sunderland, chairman of the Com
mercial club's special committee on elec
trio light and power rates, requests the
city council to say whether the selection
of Haskins Bells of New York City
ss auditors of the light company's books
Is approved.
The special committee intends to su
pervise this audit and the light company
will belr the expense, the expectation be
ing that the finding of the auditors will
have weight with the officials.
The city commissioners declined to pay
half of this expense, the feeling being that
if the city make an examination it should
be an Independent one.
ftelf-Rellaat Honr Doctors
Is what women are called who all over
this broad land make their annual col
lections of roots and herbs, and rely upon
recipes which our pioneer mothers found
dependakle for different family ailments.
In one of these recipes Lydla E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound had Its ori
gin, and so successful has It proved that
there is hardly a city, town or hamlet
In America where some woman who has
been restored to heslth by Its use docs
not reside.

r V.W '-Sy-H:
THERE hag always been a sentiment la fashions and connoisseurs
tell you that the art of dress expresses In varying ways the senti
ment of the race.
Our ronilng fashions are reminiscent of a romantic period.
The styles of Dolly Varden days and the Queen Louise scarfs were senti
mental, and the models of the colonial days picturesque and romantic. It
Is a noticeable fact that now-a-days the word "quaint" frequently appears
in the description of new styles, tf quaint means anything In this con
nection. It means that the new styles are colng back and picking up ro
mantic suggestions out of the past. Not so much fantastic and ornate sug
gestions, as much as those having story book associations. For Instance,
the story book has told of funny things In the days "When Knighthood
Was in Flower," and these hsve been translated at times Into batar re
vivals. They have resulted even In efforts now and again to have men
wear for evening dress satin knee breeches and big shoe buckles but this
never happened In Omaha except at the Ak-Sar-Ben ball..
Men would not stand for taking a permanent place In fashlondom, al
though keenly Interested in the styles of the feminine world.

Tom McCarthy Lends
Sunday Suit to His
- Pal and Fight is On
Some time ago a waiter at the Fonte
nelle hotel presented his friend, Tom Mc
Carthy, a little red-headed Irishman, with
a black suit of the swallowtail variety.
The suit soon became the envy of every
person of McCarthy's acquaintance, and
one, "Big" Sweeney, a big. burly switch
man, especially admired the suit.
One day Sweeney asked McCarthy for
the loan ot the suit so thst he might at
tend a wake. McCarthy loaned him the
suit.
Presumably Sweeney attended the wake.
But returning he attended several other
more or less well known places of con
viviality. It displeased MoCarthy that
his suit should bs subjected to exposure
in such plsces, especially while on ihe
peraon of "Big" Sweeney. McCarthy de
manded the return of- the suit. It was
not returned. And officers brought Mc
Carthy before the Judge and took
Sweeney home for repairs.
"Did you get your suit back, McCar
thy?" queried the Judge.
"Not ylt, but when Sweeney recovers I
expect to enter Into negotiations with him
again," responded McCarthy.
"Discharged," said the Judge, "hut don't
start any more fights or it will be some
thing else."

MAN WITH CIRCUIT
SHOULDER CAUGHT
Has Made a Practice of Letting
Street Car Hit Him and Then
Collecting Damage.
IS NOW IN DAVENPORT JAIL
frank II. Young, alias James Rob
inson, known to street railway offi
cials all over the country as the man
with the "circuit shoulder." has been
arrested In Davenport. Ia., charged
with defrauding the street railway
company of that city.
Young, alias Robinson, is known
to the street railway officials of the
Omaha system, for back In 1904 ho
depleted their treasury to the extent
of $125. He got that sum out of
them by using his "circuit shoulder."
Since then ho has worked street rail
way companies In St. Paul, Minneap
olis, Chicago, Cedar Rapds and
scores of other places for greater or
lesser sums. He had a shoulder that
be could dislocate at will and then
Impersonate a man suffering the most
excruciating agonies.
In the fall of lfKM. In front of the Mur
ray hotel on Fourteenth street, a South
Omaha car bumped Into Young. He fell
to the ground and seemed to be suffering
great pain. In an ambulance he waa
taken to a hospital, where ths attending
surgeon found a bndly dislocated shoul
der. The bones were slipped back Into
place, and soon the clstm agent ap
peared upon the scene. After some per
sistent arguments Young accepted tT,
and waived all claims for furthsr damages.-
Street railway officials felt that
they ware getting out of a big damage
suit cheaply and congratulated the claim
agent upon his work.
Worked la Other Places.
It now develop that Young, under the
name of Robinson and several other
aliases, has appeared In many cities In
the United States, and In nearly every
place he has managed to be bumped by
street cars, sustaining what has appeared
to be a dislocated shoulder. Each time
he hss successfully settled his claim for
damages.
Young met his Waterloo at Davenport
Inst week. Ms let a street car bump him
and roll htm along the track. Then he
was carried to a hospital and a surseon
called. The surgeon msde an examina
tion, pulled the dislocated shoulder hack
In place, ordering quirt and rest.
The next day when he called he failed
tt find any swelling or Inflammation

dering quIM treatment to- the patient.
When he called the next dey there was
no swelling, nor was there any Informa
tion. The nurse who had charge of tho
chhc and who had been told to carefully
watch the patient, gave the Information
that in her Jtidrment Young had not Suf
fered any pain.
t aauht On to Fake.
The surseon was satisfied that there
was nothing In the tnj.irirs of Toung. so
approaching his bed he took off tlie
banilagee and dli-located the ''circuit"
shoulder. He pulled It hack in plaoe
and dlxlocatrd it again. This he did half
a doaen time and then went to the trie
phone and called the street railway offi
cial. A couple of them appeared upon
the scene and after a coneultallon with

Mow to Break One of
Your Habits Profitably
Most people dislike to break a habit, no
matter how bad or unprofitable it may be.
Many people are prejudiced in favor of
certain goods because they have used
them for a long time and are not famil
iar with other kinds. '
Those goods may be made out of town
and they may be goods of high merit and
value. But some other town benefits from
the profit on them. The habit of buying
Omaha-Made goods will reveal the fadt
that they are the equal or better than those made
elsewhere and in most cases can be purchased
for less.
If Omaha-Made products would not make that
statement good, we would not be using so many
columns of newspaper space to introduce them
to you.
The way to make prosperity a vital reality in
Omaha is to make trade better by cultivating the
habit of buying and using Omaha-Made products.
