HOW MUCH IS A
GOOD LAUGH WORTH
TO YOU RIGHT NOW
From 'Wednesday a Dally.
Alary Ambrose, the jolly comedienne
of Arthur Hamerstein's "High Jinks,"
has won fame and fortune with hers.
Look at the picture two minutes and
you can't help laughing yourself. It's
contagious; that's why it's worth
money. "There used to be an old ac
cepted theory among our Puritan
fathers that laughter was an ungen
teel emotion," said Miss Ambrose,
"but if the blue-stockinged colony had
the opportunity of witnessing a musi
cal jollity on the order of 'High Jinks,'
it would have abandoned its severe and
serious outlook on life. It would have
done a little better and accepted the
theory of Thaddeus Hood, that as
smiles were tolerated by the pink of
politeness and that laughter being but
the full bloom flower of which the
smile is the bud. It should be given
unto us all to laugh and lapse into that
elysium where all is happiness and
serenity."
LEMON BATES DIES

1 awka; Mrs. Fred Westlake, Eagle
Mrs. Nellie Giale, Minter, Minnesota
-11 of whom, excepting the daughter

side at the time of his death, and the
delay of the message did not allow he:

father alive. He was also the grand

city. The body will be brought here
:nd the funeral held tomorrow after
noon at the Liberty chapel, south of

ENTERTAIN A NUMB
ER OF CHILDREN AT
HALLOWE'EN PARTY
From Wednesday's Dally.
The Christian Endeavor society of
the Presbyterian church entertained a
l umber of children at a delightful
Hallowe'en party Saturday afternoon
in the parlors of the church. Various
amusements in keeping with the Hal
lowe'en season were indulged in, inter
spersed with various other games and
amusements which children find so
much pleasure in. At a convenient
time refreshments, also in keeping
with the Hallowe'en season, and con
sisting of apples, cookies and popcorn,
were served. The small admission fee
of 10 cents was charged, from which
the Endeavorers realized a neat sum,
which will be used to carry on the
.work of the society.
SENATOR JOHN MATTES IN
THE CITY TUESDAY
Senator John Matters of Nebraska
City, accompanied by A. P. Young and
A. P. Moran, of the same city, were
here for a few hours yesterday, being
en route home from Omaha, where
they had been spending a few hours,
and while in this icty the senator
found time to visit a few of his friends
r.nd also was a caller at the Journal
office for a few minutes, and the oc
casion was one that was much enjoyed,
as the senator is a most genial and
polished gentleman and one whom it is
a pleasure to meet at any time. He
has not as yet listened to the demand
that has arisen in a great many places
in the state to enter the race for gov
ernor, but it is safe to say that a bet
ter qualified gentleman from the
standpoint of education and ability
could not be found.

COMPLAINT FILED AGAINST
WILLIAM COPE AN INEBRIATE
Complaint was made yesterday be
fore the county board of insanity
charging William Cope of Greenwood
with being an inebriate and a fit per
son to be placed in the care of the
state hospital at Lincoln. It is stated
that the condition of the man is sucn
as to cause great worry and it is
necessary to have some man with him
constantly to prevent him injuring
himself. The condition of the man be
ing such as to make it impossible to
bring him to this city for examination,
Dr. G. H. Gilmore of the board motor
ed out to Greenwood to examine the
man and determine what would be best
to do with him.
"THE PLUNDERER"
COMING TO THE GEM
TUESDAY NIGHT
One of the feature pictures to be
shown here will be that of "The
Plunderer," with William Farnum in
the stellar part, and the strong feat
ure of the photo play makes it more
thrilling than that of "The Spoilers,"
in which Mr. Farnum appeared. This
will be shown at the Gem theater oi
Tuesday evening for 10 and 15 cents.
and is a six-reel feature that is well
worth seeing.
"The Plunderer" affords for William
Farnum a real "Farnum Part" biz
Bill Matthews of the Croix d'Or mine,
a doughty, splendid steel-knit fellow,
with a big, warm heart and a punca
in each hand. Bill and his partner are
harrassed by a secret enemy who im
prisons them in a mine shaft, causes
a strike of the workmen and blows up
the reservoir upon which the power
of the mine depends. These are only a
few of the thrills that keep you
breathless hanging on to the arms oi
your seat. The final climax, wheic
Big Bill and his partner discover their
enemy, is the most stirring of all.
A pulse-stirring battle with bare
fists in which Big Bill bests a score of
drink-crazed miners in a fight, that
for sheer thiills and heart-catching ex
citement has never been excelled on
the stage, or, screen, is one of the bi;
features of this super-picture.
Then, too, there is a splendid double
love story which leaves a happy glow
in the spectator's mind. In fact, "The
Plunderer" is as perfect a photoplay
as has yet been achieved, and deals
with clean, manly men, affecting senti
ment, the lust for yellow gold an 1
swift, dynamic drama.
DR. B. F. BRENDEL GOES TO
VISIT SICK INDIANA BROTHER
Yesterday afternoon Dr. IJ. F. Bren

diana, to be present at his brother's
bedside. Doctor Brendel was accom

mother of Mrs. Brendel. The many
friends throughout the county of Dr,
J. T. Brendel will trust that he may
be able to recover from his affliction
and soon be on the highway to restor
ed health, but his condition at present
is most serious. He was for a number
cf years located at Avoca, in this coun
ty, where he was engaged in the prac
tice of his profession, and possesses
many warm friends who will learn
with the deepest regret of his afflic
tion.

MONDAY NIGHT
Brief Sketch of Miss Eileen Gibson,
the Leading Lady in the "High
Jinks" Comic Opera.
Miss Eileen Gibson, of the "High
Jinks" company, is said to be possess
ed of an education enjoyed by few
women in any walk of life. Miss
Gibson was born in Philadelphia twenty-one
years ago, and for fifteen
years studied under private tutors un
til last year, when she adopted the
stage as a profession.
The young woman wai born in
Philadelphia, where her father was
a noted physician. At the age of 5
she was sent abroad to begin he
educational career with Dr. Win it -it
Sandringham, England, and when she
had finished the ordinary kindergarte.i
course she was then taken to Berlin
by her mother, where, under the di
rection of the famous linguist, Dr.
Sncckelbeiger, sha took a course in
language.
At 14 she was in the conservatory
of Jean De lie ska, in Paris, and after
a nine-months' course in voice culture,
went to Rio de Janerio, where she
joined the South American Opera com
pany. At 17 she went to New York City,
where she became an instructor in
language, but the young woman be
came affected with a sort of wander
lust and a year aero became a racmbor
of Arthur Ilammerstein's production
cf "High Jinks," with the end in view
of training herself for grand opera.
Miss Gibson speaks nine languages
fluently and is said by Prof. Munste
of Harvard to hold in store for her
self a career as one of America'?
greatest astronomers. The young
woman is wealthy in her own righ',
but regards travel on the road as a
chorus girl as much in the nature of
a diversion as she does in the hope of
fulfilling her ambition.
HEW SON BORN TO MR. AND
MRS. E. P, STEWART
The new? has ber:i received here of
the birth of a fine new son and heir
to Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Stewart, of ths
city, yesterday. The little son is one
of the finest men in the world, and

importance in the Stewart household.
The birth of the little boy occurred at
Central City, where Mrs. Stewart is
visiting at the home of her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Cobb, and the oc
casion has been a most joyful one t)
the parents and grandparents and to
the little sifter, who will have a rev
playmate. The mother and son are
both doing nicely.
HURRYING TO GET
ADDITIONAL LIGHTS
INSTALLED SOON
The Nebraska LiRhtin company are
hurryinjr as fast as possible the in
stalling of the additional lights order
ed by the city for the street lighting
and considerable of the new wiring has
been put on in the residence district
and as soon as- the new poles to be
used in the extension of the line arrive
the work will be completed. The new
lights on Main street will be put in a
soon as possible, and being -of high
power nitrogen lamps should make a
great deal more light than those at
prerent in use. They will be strung
in the same manner as the present arc
lights, as the most satisfactory means
of handling them. The avenue lead
ing to the Missouri Pacific depot will
be much better lighted, as there will
be a light placed in each block and
which will prove a great convenience
to the traveling public.

ing that the board make a readjust
ment of the boundaries of the district
in compliance with the new school law.
which would entitle them to additional
territory for their district. The mat

as there is a case involving a matter
of this s:ime nature before the su

a decision in this matters before mak

may open up a most serious question
for the different whool districts if tho
boundaries are to be changed.

Model Preparation of .Medicine.
In the preparation of medicines,
whether in small or large quantities,
we should keep in mind that it is, in
the first place, absolutely necessary to
select the best ingredients, then to
work in absolute cleanliness, to have
a good and tried formula and to cm
ploy the most skilled and perfectly re
liable help. This is the way in which
Triner's American Elixir of Bitter
Wine ir prepared. That explains the
great, effect of this preparation upon
the digestive organs. Both, the herbs
and the wine, used in this preparation,
must undergo a stiict analysis and
must be found perfect before being
used. It stimulates the organs to
woik, relieves constipation and dis
eases complicated wun ine same,
regulates the appetite, gives new-
energy. I'rice M.ou. At drug stores.
