The promise of n new play by William Oil- lettc , who has written so many good satis factory plays , should bring easy expectation of something exceedingly flno from him nt this point In Mi career. And If al that has been said nbout "Secret Service , " which conies to Hoyd's Thursday , Friday and Sat urday matinee nnd night , January 0 , 7 nnd 8 , Is true , nn acceptance of Its validity Is not so difficult , slnco the New York public gave the play months of Its mo > H enthusiastic sup port , after .which It was taken to Boston &ad then direct to London , theater-goers arc likely to see the finest production with which Mr. Gillette's name has yet been associated. The piece has been pronounced his master work not only that the metropolitan critics havo. agreed In , declaring It the best Ameri can play ever written and thcso few words are probably sufficient In their meaning to herald the Importance of the series of per formances of "Secret Service" which will bo given at Boyd's on the above dates.

MADAME YALE EXPLAINS HER METHODS CrplRltlon Opera Honxo u\Rnhi 'Crowileil t > j- the Feminine Seeker * After theI'onntnlit of I , | I'cretinlnl I.ovellncNM , Either the feminine devotees at the shrine of beauty In this city are Insatiable and bc- llcvo that a twlco or thrice-told secret Is more efficacious than If revealed but once , or clso every woman In Omaha Is as eager to find tbat secret as was over Pence do Leca In bis search for the fountain of youth. During the last month the famed high priestess of the art of beauty , Mme. Yale , has been In the city thrco times. A month ago Boyd's theater was packed from pit to gallery with women of all degrees and ages who wanted to bo told how to be beautiful and thousands were tunned auay. To ns- suugo the disappointment of the latter Mmc. Yale came hero again on last Monday and Crclgbton theater , where she ort'cared , could hold no more women than It did. Once more yesterday the beautiful exponent of beauty lectured In the sumo theater and once more the capacity of the house was Insufficient to ( scat the eager thrcags of women who came to sco nnd hear her. And yet the demand Is not satisfied and Mine. Yale goes away with the promise to return again next spring to Omaha. Yesterday afternoon the throng which filled the theater was as varied In character as the preceding audiences which have faced Mmc. Yale. It Included women of wealth aad poor women , women who appeared to bo In the best of health and to have their full share of beauty , and sickly , homely women .old women and young women and even school girls. And they all pushed and shoved to get In and when the rush was over there was not a vacant scat In gallery , balcony , boxes or pit. Standing room was at a premium and It was well occupied , i Mmc. Yale received Just such a roccntion as'fiho has In the past. At first the feminine audlenco was rather cold , possibly a trifle cavlous of the marvel of figure and complex ion that was flashed upon them. But as the leeturo progressed and especially when the beauty priestess appeared In the costume that displayed every curve of her beautiful form , when she exhibited her llthcficss and grace and activity , the frigidity was thawed out of the gazing women and they Impul sively paid homage la ari > lanse to this high priestess of feminine beauty , who takes pride In admitting , or rather voluatarlly annouac- Ing , that she Is 45 years or age. Mme. Yale delivered the eame lecture as en the two other occasions when she ap peared before the Omaha feminine public. S'ho told of the abominations of the corset , of the virtues of cold watet , of the necessity of exercise , of the benefits of massage a very simple secret , which , with patience and will power and some of her lotions , she guar antees will transform every woman Into a beautiful creature. She appeared In the same charming costume and she performed the same alluring exercises which exhibited all the auiiplcness of her figure.

South Omaha News The number of stock cattle and feeders handled at South Omaha during the year 1S97 was something remarkable as compared with the preceding year. This increase was In a measure the result of the Immense corn crop raised In 'Nebraska ' during the year , the crop .being estimated at 254,127,000 bushels. Conditions were most favorable for an extensive business and cattle paper was In great demand. The farmer who had a crop of corn had no trouble In obtaining all the feeder stock necessary to cat up the corn. The following table gives the number 'of head of feeding cattle sent out from this market by mouths for the years 1S9C and 1S97 : | i Months , ' ' 1S97.
