CHAPTKR I.
(Continued from Yesterday.)
"I guess I'll go with yon," ld Pol
lock with alacrity, then suddenly ho
gripped the others shoulder.
"Since when." h snarled, "have out
eiders been allowed In the wings at a
dress rehearsal?"
"W-what" stammered lanlels. swln?-
i Ing about. "Why, a mosquito couldn t
get past Jerry."
"Well, a lawyer has," retorted Pol
lock. "Over there -to the right see "
Pnnlels stared wrathfully.
"Pon't that beat the dickens!" he
snorted, "who is It?"
"Philip Lan6don." said Follnck,
grimly, and again Daniels' eyes naftr
rowed shrewdly, for It was common
gossip that these two men, so striking
a contrast in type and character, were
rivals for the favor of the lovely young
actress.
".Maybe Hss rase left word for him
to get in." he said, with a sly smile;
and the hot blood rushed to Pollock's
face.
"If I thought that" he muttered, tak
ing a quick step forward. But Daniels
caught at bis sleeve.
"I was only kidding. tJon't be a fool,"
he said, soothingly. "Rehearsal la about
over anyhow, and a five-minute talk
with that fellow Isn't going to hurt
Mary. Lt 'em alone. I guess he'H look
like a two spot to her when you tell her
that little story of yours tonight eh?"
Ho chuckled, though his eyes were full
of a strange anxiety, and his touch on
Pollock's sleeve was by no means light.
The latter turned with a shrug.
"I guess you're right," h admitted.
"Come on, let's go get that drink."
At the door, however, he glanced back
over his shoulder and set his teetb
grimly as Mary's glad welcome to l,ang
don floated out to hl.ni. J.Lqv wonderful
she looked!
"Phil! How In the world did you get
in? '
"Bribery and corruption and a funny
story," he laughed, taking her hand in
his. "Is rehearsal over?"
"Yes, thank goodness!" "She nodded,
as the players with friendly Uttlo smiles
brushed past them. "Pld you sco any
of It?'
"Knough to realize how fine you are
as Nora." he said with sudden gravity,
and she smiled up at him with a flush
of pleasure at the words as she dropped
wearily into the chair of the garish
throne that held the center of the stage.
"I'm glad you like it." she ssid simply,
adding with a quiver In her soft volco,
"Oh, Phil, Phil. I'm so happy-to thln'rf
Its-it's come at last this wonderful
dream men call success!"
"I'm happy, too, my dear," he said,
gently, sitting down on the edge of the
throne's dais to tho dismay of the busy
scene-shifters. "I wish you the greatct-t
triumph you could desire, and I know
you deserve It"
"But you don't sound happy." she per
sisted, her woman's Int'itlon uppermost.
For an Instant bis eyes met hers.
"Success can build a big wall," be whis
pered "between a star and a-poor law.
ycr."
"Nonsense"i she protest"!. "Oh. Philip,
you mustn't feel that way. Nothing
nothing In tho whole wide woild could
come between you and me. Why you've
always been tho 'bestest' among iuv
friends. Do you remember those days
when you used to come and take me to
the school ball games? And hew some
times I wouldn't go because I didn't he
pretty frorks like the other girls? And
how poor wo were? And now now " --he
spread nut her slim hands with n tri
umphant laugh, and Philip, striving t?
attune himself to her mood, smiled gaMy
In reply.
"And now," lc cried, "you are a queen
upon a throne and I sit at your feet as
becomes a humble vassal."
"You humble!" Mary mocked "This Is
indeed a chnngc!"

" 'There is no king upon his throne.
No seer or soldier, proud end stern:
But what love's call can reach their
hearts,
And make them humble each In turn.' "
quoted Philip, and Just for a moment
Mary's fingertips rested en his shoulder
caressingly and her face glowed like n
rose as she looked out over bis head at
the empty theater.
They were almost alone now, and w ith
a little laugh she straightened suddenly
In her royal chair.
"Poetry and memories, and a throne,"
she said gently, "make one forget that
'tempi's' Is always 'fugiting'; and I must
hurry and dress. Will you wait and take
me home. rhil?" I
Hia face, which had fallen at her
change of mood, brightened at the words,
and, promising, he waived with her to
her dressing room door. Daniels was
standing by It as they came up. At
sight of Thillp he frowned.
"It's against orders, Mr. Lsncdon," ho
said brusquely, "for outsiders to be be
hind the scenes today. I don't know
how you got in, but "
"But, I'm now going out," laughed
Ijtngdon carelessly. "Mary. I'll call s
taxi and be waiting for you when you
come."
"All riRht." she called bark, and went
In. closing the door behind her.
For an instant Paniets seemed about
to knock; then be walked thoughtfully
out towards the stage and glared as If
puizlcd at tho gaudy garden pictured on
the back drop, and then sgaln walked
back to Mary's door, indecision writ large
on his heavy face.
"It's a mean business." be muttered,
"but I don't see that V' e any choice,"
and, shrugging his shoulders, he rapped
sharply.

One member absent and a tie vote
of the ait attending a regular sos
tion of tbo city council presents an
unusual situation In the rase of a
retail liquor application of Isaac
Crossman, 52 4 North Sixteenth
J street. It requires at least four
votes of the council to grant a pa
loon license. In this Instance the
license was not granted and the
mooted question Is, does the tie vote
constitute a legal rejection of the
application, or is the matter still be
fore the council, subject to reconsid
eration at some fu'.ure date? Kor
the present, at least, the effect Is
that the saloon cannot be reopened.
Commissioner Kugel will be out of
the city for three weeks and It Is not
l.nown how he would vote on this
proposition. Ills return may be tbo
occasion for bringing the matter be
fore the council again.

Monday afternoon the rouncil heard
e idenre in connection with a protest
filed by Fannie Marksbury, who also filed
a protest against the application of I sartor
Goldstein who had this saloon last year
and whose renewal was rejected by the
rouncil two weeks ago. Grossman Is a
brother-in-law ef Goldstein and was man
ager of the saloon last year.
Commissioners Hummel. Jardlne and
Prexel voted to refuse the license this
year and also voted to sustain the protest.
Mayor Dahlman and Commissioners But
ler and Wlthnell voted to grant the
license and against tho protest.
Mr. Hummel was particularly opposed
to this mloon which Is located near his
home. His contention Is that there are
too many saloons on North Sixteenth
street.
" One can stand on any Intersection of
North Sixteenth street and see seven
saloons," stated Mr. Hummel.

Succumbs to Heart
Trouble as He Lies
Asleep On His Cot
Assuming that C. F. Kessler was In
good health and enjoying his usual
sound sleep, because lie was snoring
loudly, W. N. Kcegan, Kessder's room
mate, left their room late yesterday
morning to get breakfast. When he re
turned at noon he found Kessler dead on
his cot at the New Home lodging house, I attention by their conduct and Wright
gave them a friendly warning.
"Go on. Dare you to put us in Jail,"
thoy said.
The officer took the dare and the men
went to Jail to recover their equilibrium.
Dare Sheriff to
Put Them in Jail,
Officer Makes Good
Chris Marks and George G. White, who
dared Deputy Sheriff Joe Wright to put
them tn Jail, were immediately hurried
to tho county prison by the oflfcer.
The deputy was passing a saloon on
North Twenty-fourth street, when the
two men came out. They attracted his
second floor of Douglas street.
Dr. Clara B. Cross, Fourteenth and
Douglas Btree.ts, and Officer John
Hchwager declared when summoned thst
heart failure had caused Kesslcr's
death.
The man was employed as a car repairer
by the Union Taclfic at North Tlatte, his
home, until recently, when ho waa laid
off. He camo to Omaha tn search of work
and had sent for his wife. Mary, who
will arrive in timo to arrange for the
funeral.
Coroner Crosby took charge of the body
aid will hold a post mortem examination
and perhaps an inquest.
Clearing House for
Second-Hand Autos
is Plan of Dealers
A clearing house for second-hand auto
mobiles Is an aim and deelro of the
Omaha 1 Automobile Show association,
which consists of nearly all of the motor
dealers In Omaha.
The show association met at the Com
mercial club at noon and unanimously
decided it would be a good plan to or
ganize ejeh a clearing house, obtain a
building solely for this purpose and In
the future turn over all eecond-hand cars
to the clearing house for t-ale. Thus no
dealer would sell any second-hand cars
at all, but would turn over all such
stock to the clearing house.
It was decided to hold another meeting
of the association Friday when a alto
fo a building for the clearing house
would be chosen and definite plans of
organization made.
