KILPATRICK-KOCH DRY GOODS CO Interest In the theaters during the pas week of tragic presentation has centered t the work ot the rarely gifted young ma who appeared in the great roles ot tragedy Shakespearean and others , at the Crelghtoi All of Mr. Whitestde's performances hav been enjoyable. Some , perhaps , more tha others , but each presenting some feature which entitled it to a high place amen characterizations of its kind. One desire : not to be misunderstood in one's expresscc estimate of Mr. Whltesldo as a tragedian Ono might call him the foremost among tragic actors of the present day a posltloi which , oven If It carried with it a grcate meed of honor than belongs to it In tbos degenerate times , bei would not bo too cage to claim , for one believes Mr. Whltesld to bo a modest man , and a well-balanced whom not oven the Indiscriminate and in judicious eulogies of his friends can turn topsy-turvy. One might call his Hamlet th greatest since Booth and not bo very fa wrong. Such large and comprehensive .state incntii are easily made , and not readily dls proved , even If one were disposed to dispute them. The faults Mr. Whltesldo has , am they must ho apparent to everyone , are tliobo which are Incidental to his youth am to the lack of rigid training caused by his early and constant appearance as a star One cordially agrees with those critics who credit Mr. Whltsldo with all the admirable qualities which , when they are ripened am rounded out with ago and experience , wll make him a great tragedian. He may bo the greatest today , but one hopes to give him a better title , than that. A man may be the- biggest man In the village , and not bo a very big man either. It was not In any way Mr. Whlteside's fault , but while Hamlet's friends were swearing- secrecy at the bidding of the rest less ghost , Thursday night , a prominent citizen , whoso name la not unconnected will : the local drama , went sound asleep and snored audibly , to the huge delight of cer tain of his. neighbors , who looked upon tliu Injunction , "Rest , perturbed spirit , " as particularly timely and appropriate. The ' weary citizen , however , awoke In tlmo 'to join heartily In the applause which resulted in a well deserved recall for thetragedian. . The extra attraction announced at the Ccelghton for the coming four nights , openIng - Ing with a matlneo today at 2:30 : , Is a gor geous representation ot Tompkins' "Dlack Crook , " by the tumo famous company which enjoyed a marvelous run of twelve months at the Academy of Music In Now York and six months at the famous Doston theater. Magnificently designed new costumes of cost liest silks , velvets and satins have been pre pared for the tour. Now and elaborate scenery has been prepared from the Bands of our country's hist scenic artists , and many navel effects of startling brilliancy Intro duced. The Slalacta of the"Dlack Crook" will be In the lianJa of Miss Leslie Mayo , who Is said to be a worthy and artistic suc cessor of the many Impersonators of thU role since the days of Pauline Markham at Nlblo'a Garden. The- leading premiers are Mile. Kraskce and Mile. Maveroffer , of the tlioateiu of Milan , St. Petersburg and Paris , and tiny will be supported by a bevy of coryphees , selected with special regard to their youth , beauty and artistic acquirements. Three gorgeous ballets will be Introduced , Dim of which , entitled the "Ballet of Gems , " Is entirely new to the stage of this country. Among other novelties are the Introduction of the Musical Marionettes and the up-to- date "Trilby Ballet. The Spanish Sere- enaders will appeal to the musical loving pub lic , as Indeed will the- Ingenious ballet de vised upon the laeat popular airs ot the day , Among the strongest vaudeville specialties vlll be the Brothers IlUford , from the Circus Clilnelll , St. Petersburg , and the Great lire- ton ) , In his wonderful changes. Tbls pro duction employs the wrvlcea of 100 artists In all brandies , and the cervices of live train coaches are enlleted for their transportation , besides a number ot sixty-foot baggage cars , The advent of the "Black Crook" as a pro duction will be- hailed with delight , and the occasion la cue not likely to be noon forgot ten by our local play-goers. The manage ment has given ample assurance that the spectacle will be given with the same gen erous attention to detail that witnessed Its memorable New York rim of a year. The attraction at Boyd's theater tonight will be J. K. Emmett , "Our Fritz , " as ho I familiarly known to theater-goers. In his eve popular comedy , "Fritz in a Mad House.1 The play affords Mr. Emmett an cxcellen vehicle tor displaying his peculiar talent , ad milling of the Introduction of the singing ant dancing for which "Our Fritz" is famed. Mr. Emmett comes this y.ear surrounded by a company ot unusual excellence. Mis Emyllne Barr , Mr. L. P. Hicks , Mls Kat Eckcrt , Wlllard Newell , Laura S. Howe , Mr Gilbert Bralthwalte , George Hernandet and llttlo Baby Spencer Slnnot are among th prominent names In the cast. "Down In Dixie" Is a title that exactly hit the play to which it belongs. This play wll soon be nn attraction In this city , coming to the Crelghton for four nights , commencing Sunday matinee , December 1. It was writ ten by Scott Marble to give a picture o southern lifeto tell a very sensational story and to provide an opportunity for the Intro ductlon of a pickaninny band and a lot o darkey singers in addition to the regular dramatic company of white people. The manly son of a proud , rich planter loves a girl of humble origin. His family close their doors on her , but she wins their love by the courage and cleverness with which she defeats the plots of two villains against them. She saves two lives during the course of the ploy and both In very exciting circumstances. Perhaps the mott stirring scene In the drama Is tliut where the huge cotton compress Is used. A number of big bales of real cot ton are compressed by this machine , dem onstrating Its enormous power of pressure. Two villains knock a young naval officer senseless , place him In the compress , start the machinery and set fire to the warehouse. The heroine breaks from the office In which she Is locked and drags the ofl\cer \ from the compress just as itu great Jaws are about to close. An earlier feature of this warehouse scene Is the Zouave drill by the pickaninnies. umiiy iiancKer ana ner company or piay- ers will present the comedy , "Our Flat , " at the Boyd for three nights and Saturday mati nee. The engagement begins with a Thanks giving matinee. . It will be remembered that .hero Is a scene In "Our Flat" which shows remarkable Ingenuity and originality. Emis saries ot an Installment house enter the flat and strip It of Its furnishings to satisfy an unpaid claim. The young wife Is left alone In her beut room with nothing but a few pil lows , scarfs and curtains. With the as sistance of a maid sbe undertakes to repro duce the former effect of the Interior with joxes , tubs and baskets draped nlth the cur- : alns and scarfs. In live minutes the work a complete and tha audience la left to ad mire the result and moralize on the many pretty devices to which woman will resort In order to preserve appearances. George W. Parsons heads the support as he Impecunious playwright and husband. Will Jandevllle as the theater manager , Phillip I. Hyley In the character ot the unsucceis- ul aitor , and Charles Leonard Fletcher as he fatl > er-ln-law , need no Introduction to our public , and Anita Verns Is doing the servant girl this year , replacing LetJarvls , An event of more than pa PS Ing Importance will be the appearance ot William H. Crane , he comedian , at Boyd'e theater on Monday light In " 'His Wife's Father. " This play ia had an overflowing- measure of success n all of the cities * In which It has been Men , nd It Is described as being a very clever vork. The play will be repeated on Tuesday Ight , Mr. Crane's engagement being for two Ights. The story of the play relates to lucbanan Bllllngci , a wealthy merchant , and fell , his only child. The scene opens on lie morning of Noll's marriage to Frank lamlltou , and shows Billings supervising lia details ot the wedding breakfdit. To I * little girl Billings bM devoted all lite. Ono ot the first things that ho does Is to make Frank a partner In his business and withdraw from active participation in Us affairs himself In order that he may have unlimited time to devote to his daughter. He Interferes continually In the domestic ar rangements ot the young couple and they rarely have * n opportunity of enjoying one another's poclety alone and undisturbed. It Is not to be expected that any young couple are going to stand much of this , and they move from the old man's house , leaving the latter bitterly Incensed against his son-in- law. It never dawns on the old man that he has been causing the trouble and he con tinues to devise plans for Nell's comfort. The very first morning that Nell Is In her now home ho calls on her. The little woman has not been an undutlful daughter and rushes to his arms. This nettles bar husband , quarrels ensue , which are unwit tingly aggravated by the old man , and the result la that Frank leaves his wife and goes to Europe. As Nell realizes that she has lost her husband on account of her divided love she turns upon her father and , as she upbraids him , falls on the floor In a faint. A widow with an only daughter opens Billings' eyes to the- fact that his selfish love for his daughter has ruined her happiness. Realizing this he brings the girl home with him , where she remains until he brings about a reconciliation. This done , ho marries the widow and retires In the background of the young people's lives. It will be seen from this that the play Is founded on an error of the heart and that the story Is pure and clean. Mr. Crane will be the father , Miss Anne O'Neill the daughter , Mr. Edwin Arden the husband and Miss Eleanor Barry the widow. Miss Dallas Tyler , Miss Blanche Burton , Miss Maude Carlisle , Mrs. Kato Denln Wilson , Joseph Wheelock , Jr. , Percy Brooke , George F. DeVero , William Boag , E. D. Tyler and O. V. DeVere will also be In the cast. Although the title of " 1492 , " the brilliant extravaganza which will be presented by Rico's big company at the Crolghton for three nights , opening with a special holi day matinee on Thanksgiving day , Thursday , November 28 , Is 403 years behind the times , the performance as a whole has all the snap and ginger of dialogue and the extravagance of stage settings and costuming of the present period In this waning century. " 1492" ran steadily In New York for more than two years and has also had tremendously suc cessful engagements In Boston , Chicago and other cities where nothing but the best in a spectacular way would bo tolerated for any length of time. The curtain rises on the Spanish court , whoso treasury has been depleted through the reckless extravagance of the king and the treasurer's love for glittering diamonds. Creditors are pressing their demands and Christopher Columbus is pleading for u fleet with which to discover the New World.

Uecently a decision was handed down by the Insurance department of the state o Illinois by which it Is hoped that In a shor time the Independent Order of Foresters am the Independent Order of Foresters of Jill nols xvlll finally lay asldo their difference and come together Into one body. This de clslon grants a license to the former body which recently met In Chicago. The separation which resulted In the or ganization of two bodies occurred In 1879 and came about through a disagreement re gardlnn the basis on which assessments should be levied. The present plsn of the In dependent Order of Foresters was adopted and thereupon a number of the members o the high court seceded Mid formed the other order , the Independent 'rder of Foresters of Illinois. Sine ? thac time alt efforts looking toward a reunion have been futile. In 1S93 It was for a time hoped that the differences would be settled and that or agreement would be reached for a reunion of the two bodies. At the last moment the articles of amalgamation were not found tc be acceptable to the Independent Order el Foresters of Illinois and the bodies remained separate. Through all the years since the separation there has been a flglit between tlio two bodies , and up to last month the Inde pendent Order of Foresters of Illinois suc ceeded In preventing the other order from obtaining an Insurance * license. The effect of the granting of the license has already been felt In the west. As an Instance Court Alamenla of South Omaha , with a member ship of forty-five , lias gone over In a body to the Order of Independent Foresters , and It la understood that others are preparing to follow in Its footsteps. Writing under date of November \ to Frank 'j. Gregory , agent of Union Pacific council o. 1,009 , Royal Arcanum , John E. Pound , supreme regent of the order , says : "I have ust signed an order for $3,000 , payable to ho beneficiary ot the late Brother Asher ii. Lyon , a member of your council. Slnse .lay 24 last I have signed orders to the aiiicunt of $9,000 , payable to the bcneflclarlo * of deceased brothers In your state , which shews that the Royal Arcanum has been of seme Intrinsic benefit to them. Such ac- Icns speak louder than any words of praise can as to the advantages of the order. " While It Isn't always pleasant to be ro- ninded at all times of certain death , a degree of terror Is removed by the reflection that Ife Insurance ID held in some/ reliable con- ern. In this respect the words of Supreme lecent Pound mean much to more than 170- 00 men In the United States. Hut Insur- nco Is not the. only aim of the Hoyal Ar- anum. Most ot the members realUa that hey will be a long time dead , So they have a feature of the game they can beat without dying. A merry time here Is one of the objects of the order , and a mote social ot of fellows than those enlisted In tlio anlts In Omaha and Council Bluffs would 10 hard to find. Union Pacific council , over which Regent Gregory presides with such dignity , Ii a model In this respect , and no ne who has ever shared In the hospitality of the members on the frequent occasions of Its lubllo reception's needs further assurance of he fact. In addition to being a royal good fellow Gregory Is a huitler , and his worker or the- Royal Arcanum In Omaha and Ne- > rasku has been such a to entitle him to the hanks of all poisestors of the secret. Last evening occurred one of the rather are occasions on which the thirtieth do- reo of the Masonic body Is conferred upon TO members ot the order and they are ad- nltted Into the preceptor ) ' of the Knights [ adouh , The ceremony was performed by he officers of St. Andrew's preceptory of this Ity , the only preceptory In the state. The egreo waa conferred upon six candidates. A ceremony of the kind Is looked upon as tort ot reunion , and consequently Knights ladosh from over the state as a rule attend le occasions. Last night's meeting was no xce-ptlon , There were about seventy-five lembers present , and some of them repre- snted the more distant town * la the state. One Itnlght came even from Deadwood. It is expected that only one more opportunity will be offered this season for the receiving of the deJree. The newly organized Criterion club seems to be Impregnated with the proper spirit , for although it is but a week old It has al ready almost completed all the arrangement ! ) for a grand ball , which la to be given on the evening of December 19. As an Indication that the club has coma to stay the affair has been announced as the first annual 'ball ot the club. Metropolitan hall has been ob tained for the occasion. The earlier portion tion of the evening Is to bo devoted to a choice entertainment and this will be fol lowed by the dancing program. The com mittee will spare neither time nor money to make this Initial affair ot the club a suc cess that It can be proud of. The entertain ment program will be especially good , as many well known performers will be down for selections. The dance which was given by Alpha camp No. 1 , Woodmen of the World , In Its hall In the Continental block last Thursday evenIng - Ing was vety well attended , betwaen seventy- five and 100 couples being present , It was the first affair of the kind given by the camp this scaaon , and it was such a suc cess that It understood that it Is but a forerunner of many similar nuoneilons. Pre ceding the dunce an excellent entertainment consisting largely of musical selections was given. Two weeks ago an entertainment was given by Triune lodge , Knights of Pythias , ot which this column failed to make mention. The Pythian Knights are famous for the good things with which they entertain themselves and friends and the entertainment referred to was as enjoyable as any recently given. Almost the entire membership was present and a largo number of friends. The evening was spent In listening to music , songs , reci tations and npeechcs and throughout a feel- Inn of good fellowship prevailed which made every one feel completely at home , The evening was ended at card tables. Next Monday evening Social lodge No. 102 , Degree of Honor , Ancient Order of United Workmen , will give an entertainment In the lodge rooms In the Continental block. On the following Friday evening Union Pacific ledge No. 17 , of the same order will give an entertainment In the same place. The pro grams , Informal In nature , will consist of music , speaking , games and dancing. Anchor ledge No. 75. Independent Order of Good Templars , had a very enjoyable regular meeting at the homo of Lydla Johnson , 2IG North Twenty-second street , last Tuesday evening. A ehort business session opened the meeting , and then the members proceeded to enjoy themselves. The usual Informal pro gram was rendered , which possibly gave its much pleasure as tlio two Initiations with which the members were first regaled , Ito- 'reshmenti , light and dainty , were served bo- 'ors the company scattered. The next mooi ng of the ledge will occur on neoct Tuesday evening at the residence ot Charles Watts , 1821 Cass street. The Knights of the Maccabees will here after meet on the third Monday night of each month In Red Men's hall In the Patter son block. Heretofore the tout has mot on every Thursday night. On Thanskglvlng night the members of Alpha camp No. l , Woodmen of the World , will enjoy themselves as far as they art able without their feminine friends.

Last Friday night the Tribe of Bon Hur gave an excellent entertainment In the old Odd FellowH' hall at Fonrtoenth and Dodge streets. The program , consisting of musical and literary selections , was heartily enjoyed by the large attendance , as was the refresh ments which were later served. John T.

Mrs , Logston will return to Omaha with her brother , and will be his guest fo'r a month at his residence , 4332 Grant street. Members of Omaha lodge , No. 200 , Ordr of the World , were given a pleasing exhibi tion of the work of their iew degree staff last Monday evening , when fifty men and women appeared for the first tlmo In cos tume. While the work has always been of an Interesting character , It Is doubly M now since the completion of this addition. It Is no longer an effort to get members to attend lodge meetings , as the now ritualistic work Is of such an Interesting character that all arc anxious to see the work per formed. Concordla ledge , No. 345 , Order of the World , Is gradually growing In public favor and Increasing In membership. Already It ! ) present quarters are too crowded lor the pwformanco of the work. The members all work toward building up the organization and making It a strong and flourishing lodge. At the present time the members are con- vl idlcrlng the plan of uniting another German odse with Concordla , ar.d should this union take place No. 345 will then become tlia strongest Gorman lodge In the utato. Tcutonla lodge , No. 262 , Order of the World , haa decided to remove from Its pren- cut quarters on Vlnton street and occupy a hall In the central part of the city. Thjs step Is deemed advisable on account of 06 nuny of the members living on the north sideof town , and having lee far to go to ittcnd lodge meetings. It Is unfortunate that this change la neceraary , an thu present quarter * of Teuton ) ! are as flno as any In the city.
