UNIQUE IS PLAN
FOR
Nebraska Organization Provides
Varied Entertainment
for Visitors
1 91 1 INITIATION BRAND NEW
Many New Features Have Been Addee
to Program to Be Offered to Mem
bers and Friends During the Fall
Festivities
BY E V PARRISH
Go where you will on pleasure benl
to the Mardi Gras in New Orleans
in the late winter months to tht
Priests of Palas parade in Kansas
City or to the Veiled Prophets parade
and hall in St Louis then go to the
festivities in Omaha Neb j
and you will find a departure original
and unique in the way of fall festi
vities
he is distinctly a west
ern institution It was fostered bj
the western spirit and developed oj
the wesiein dash From purely a lo
cal institution conceived in Omaha
it has giown to a national institution
numbering among its members such
well known personages as formei
President Theodore Roosevelt Pres
ident William H Taft members ol
United Stales cabinets anc governors
of states of the east west north and
south
Rare indeed is he who has not vis
ited Omaha during the summer
I
months and has not been Inducted in
to the mysteries of the land of King
Samson And rarer is he who after
having trend the narrow and rocky
road which leads to the shrine of King
Samson has not declared that the ex- j
perience is unique to such extent that
he has never before experienced any
thing like it
Like all similar institutions
has its queen and its king
and the customary retinue of attend
ants The king always one of the
leading business or professional men
of tin cit holds forth for a year He
in turn is permitted to name his queen
to whom the fair western women do
honor for the ensuing year
Unlike other institutions class dis
tinction has nothing to do with the
selection of the king or the queen
They are chesen from all walks of
Jife In no other place is talent
ability and beauty recognized more
than it is in this modern land of
Quivera
goes farther than sim
ilar institutions Its activities do not
negin and end with one week of feast
and merrymaking as in others For
six months the promoters
plan and work out the details The
October schedule is but the perfection
of a half years work To properly
realize this ambition weekly meetings
are held for a half year preceding the
fall festivities during which numerous
schemes are tried out Some stand
the acid test They are few In com
rarison with the great number of
features that are rnst by the wayside
with the labol Not Good Enough
for the Residents of the
World
HIS HOTTENTOT ESCORT
But when the final scheme is con
summated when the offerings of the
organization are ready for the ap
proval of the great multitude of peo
pie who flock to Omaha during the
first week in October of each year
then it is that the casual spectatoi
knows just what means
It is during this week that the great
electrical parade is given and it is
during the week that the great ball
which ushers out the sea
son in a blaze of glory occupies the
center place in western social life
The dates back to 1895
when it was organized as an enter
tainment feature for the state fail
visitors with an initiation intended tc
promote a better spirit of co operation
among the business men of Omaha
the state and the west This lattei
spirit has dominated the organization
since and it has become an organiza
tion for the people of the people and
by the people a democratic institu
tion in every sense of the word
Western people swear by the name
It stands to them foi
everything that means to go iead
The name itself is the name of th
glorious state of Nebraska spelled
backward But that is the only thing
that is backward about the organiza
tion
One source of gratification to the
people is the notable men
of the country that they have had the
pleasure of entertaining and investing
with the symbol of the organization
In 1898 President McKinley with
most of the members of his cabinet
many foreign ambassadors General
Miles then head of the army and
other distinguished gentlemen were
the guests of the city Chauncey
Depew also graced the ball room that
year with his presence Since Pres
ident Taft former President Roose
volt and a host of others have honored
the with a visit and have
gone away feeling according to their
own statements that the
is an innovation in the world of
j
tivities of this character j
The red letter day in the history
of the organization came in the fall
of 1910 when Colonel Roosevelt was
made a member
Heres where you get a touch of
Hell was the gentle admonition
which greeted the ears of the strenu
ous one when he was being led to
the slaughter With this gentle re
minder the seven red devils took
charge of Colonel Roosevelt and for
an hour and a half he was buffeted
about like an ocean liner on the bot
tomless deep In his characteristic
way Colonel Roosevelt took every
thing that was coming and then
demanded more Once again his
strenuosity stood him in good stead
for the devils were all in while the
colonel was there with a broad grin
on his face and with the usual de
lighted to greet his entertainers
Bully roared Colonel Roosevelt
ns he repaired to the Immense dining
room where a feast was spread in
the true western style I have had
the best time that I have had in many
days
Colonel Roosevelt voiced the sen
timents of others who had hit the
trail before him It was no wonder
that the Colonel was pleased for the
is a booster organization
after his own heart made up of men
who do things in the most approved
way
Initiation unique in its
own way is purely a local product It
is conceived written staged and
acted by volunteer workers drawn
from the large anks of Omaha busi
ness men
There is a little of the oriental

true meaning cf the organization the

Its colors red green and yellow are

fertile lands in abundance and green

is the development of the delib
erations of a sturdy band of men wh
early in the spring of 1895 looked con
ditions squarely in the face and met
them with true western spirit by de
ciding that only some strenuous ac
tion could shake off the lethargy that

was killing the trade activities of the
city and bring about co operation and
conceited interest among the business
men The ambitions have been real
ized to an extent that is beyond the
fondest hopes of even the most san
guine of that determined little body
of men who worked long and hard for
the ultimate result The
boosters have added many features to
their 1911 initiation The initiatory
season proper will open on Sept 18
while the fall festivities will begin
nine days later and continue until
Saturday night Oct 7
Tuesday afternoon Oct 3 the man
ufacturers of the city and state will
give a parade of live floats which will
demonstrate that Nebraska is a manu
facturing center as well as a jobbing
and industrial center Nearly half a
hundred manufactures have already
provided for floats in this affair
On Wednesday night Oct 4
great electrical pageant
Dreams of Other Years will wend
Its way up and down the streets
across the thoroughfares The parade
this year will be a review of former
years when twenty floats will repro
duce the themes of the parades of the
last sixteen years
Two regiments of the Nebraska na
tional guard will furnish the part of
the program of the week for Wednes
day afternoon when the gigantic
military procession will make its way
here and there about the city
The season festivities will wind up
Friday night when the grand corona
tion ball will be given in the royal
castle The Den where King
XVII and his noble consort
will receive the crowns before a
brilliant assemblage of royal subjects
The naming of the king and his
telection of his queen are the pieces
