The opening day of the great
Merchants' Carnival has been a pro
nounced success despite adverse
weather conditions." For the first
time In x weeks the weather has
been full of water and today saw
lowering 8kles with a damp, dis
agreeable raw wind blowing out of
the east Despite this most of the
concessions were open promptly on
time and did a good business. The
ity has been handsomely decorated,
many of the business houses being a
mass of bunting and presenting a
tjala appearance. The Anheuser-
ch building, C. E. Wescott's
Sons, John Schlappacasse, the Elk's,

berger, Ed. Donat, Ilatt & Son, The
Journal, H. M. Soennlchsen and
William Holly had the fronts of
their buildings especially nicely dec
orated. The Elk's had an especially
attractive front. The work was gen
erally done by a traveling firm of
decorators and is artistic and neat.
Today was Live Stock and Agri
cultural day and the exhibit at
Smith's barn, corner Sixth and Vine
.streets, is more than creditable.
They have as fine animals on exhi
bition there as at any place in the
country. The live stock exhibits
are not as large as hoped for, but
of a high grade, far superior to
what anyone believed to be In the
country. The following exhibitors
are on the ground: Luke L. Wiles,
with six head of Red Polled, includ
ing two cows, tvo yearling heifers,
one bull calf and" the bull Closson,
registered No. 13280. George Kaf
fenberger also has six head of Here
fords, Including two bulls, Gentry
and Dick, and two cows with two
heifer calves. C. Bengen has three
Herefords, including his prize-winning
bull AJax, also one cow and
calf. Thomas E. Parmele exhibits a
Jsey cow. Henry Hirz exhibits a
ne Galloway heifer of the Straub
Bros.' prize-winning herd. Elbert
Wiles has a Shorthorn bull and
heifer, both fine stock. John Tritsch
has a roan Durham heifer which is
rather novel in appearance and a
fine animal. There are others be
ing entered as this is written and
the above list Is not all the exhlb-
tors.

but of very high grade stock, and

he is loved by her children and her
many friends, both in that neigh

some forty of them altogether gath

many handsome and costly presents
which they showered upon her, and
in every way made the occasion
one which she will always remem-

I The handsome home of the Kells

but It will pay you to see them all.
The exhibit of fruits and grain is
flattering and far above the aver
age for such exhibits. It Is held In
the empty store room east of the
court house, and the exhibits make
a very commendable showing. The
room was well filled by noon with
the exhibits, with many more on the
road.
Tomorrow will be Pioneers' day,

great days of the affair. There will
be a vast attendance if the weather

A Brilliant Wedding.
The handsome home of M. Fanger
last evening was the scene of a hap
py wedding when R-bbi Cohn of
Omaha united Miss Laura Schall
and Mr. Philip Orkln, both of Om
aha. The wedding was conducted
according to the ceremony of the
Reformed Jewish faith, and was a
brilliant affair.
For the occasion the beautiful
residence had been handsomely dec
orated by festoons of white asters
and wistaria, the large bay window
In the drawing room where the
ceremony was performed having an
Improvised altar erected, which
was handsome In a wealth of foliage
the beautiful wistaria forming the
chief ornament and lending a re
splendent air to the room. Here
the bridal party met and the sacred
vows were spoken. The bride was
accompanied by Miss Rosa Schall of
Omaha, her sister, as bridesmaid,
with Miss Rosella Klein, olso of Om
aha, and a niece of the bride, as
ring bearer and Miss Marie Fanger
and Tina Zucker of this city and
Millie Pine and Caroline Orkln of
Omaha as ribbon bearers, forming
the bridal procession. The groom
was accompanied by J. L. Orkln, his
brother, as groomsman. The bride
entered the room and was support
ed to the altar by her brjther-in-law,
Max Klein of Omaha, who gave
her away. She was remarkably
handsome In a beautiful white mesa
line gown, which was trimmed with
old lace, a family heirloom and
something which had been handed
down from generation to genera
tion In the family.
Immediately following the cere
mony which took place in the draw
ing room and was witnessed by a
large number of relatives and
friends, the assembled wedding
party sat down to a veritable wed
ding feast which consisted of a mag-
ntllcent five-course luncheon. The
tables were handsomely and expen
sively decorated with a profusion of
cut flowers and the dining room was
esplendent in bloom of every de
scription. One especial feature of
the wedding and tho following
luncheon was tho music which was
furnished by an Italian orchestra of
Omaha. Their elegant music fitted
in splendily with the other happy
events of the day. Later the rooms
of the mansion were cleared and
the remainder of the evenlne was
taken up in dancing. At midnight
the happy couple departed on the
.Missouri Pacific for Kansas Citv.
where they will spend the honey
moon, later returning to Omaha.
where they will be at home at 545
South Twenty-sixth street.
Roth Mr. Orkln and his brlue are
well known In Omaha Jewish so
ciety, being prominent people thero.
Miss Schall is the charming daugh
ter of Mrs. Dora Schall of 1614
N'orth Twenty-fourth Btreet, and Is
well and favorably known In this
city. She is a young woman of most
ieilghtful and pleaslne personality
and many attainments. Mr. Orkln
Is a member of the firm of Orkln

nia, and Is a gentleman of great
business ability and rare acumeu.

Duncln-r School to Open.
Miss Clara Ferree, a graduate of
the Pittsburg, Pa., and Rochester,
N. Y., dancing academies, will open
a dancing school in this city on next
Monday (Labor day) evening, Sep
tember 6, at Coates hall. The open
ing will be In the torm oi a nance at
which Miss Ferree will state to her
patrons her methods of handling tho
school. She Is an experienced in
structress in dancing, having been
an assistant In the eastern schools
for some time in addition to later
on running a school of her own In
Council Bluffs last winter. Miss
Ferree also is highly recommended
by Prof. Chambers of Omaha, where
she attended his academy for some
time. Miss Ferree, with her mother,
is located in this city and is buying
a home here. She hopes to secure
a sufficiently large class to enable
her to pay out on the property and
appreciates good patronage. She ex
pects to conduct a dancing class in
Omaha the coming winter. One of
her cardinal rules Is the enforce
ment of the school rules and the
strict observance of the proprieties.
In another place a formal announce
ment appears of her venture and at
the dance on Monday evening her
terms will be given the public. That
Miss Ferree will make a thorough
success of her school cannot be
doubted, and that she will gain a
large class Is assured. In addition
to the adult's class, Miss Ferree ex
pects to have a children's class of
unusual merit. In fact, she con
templates making the children's
class one of the main features of
her class. Her first dance on next
