The Omaha ledge of Elks bought the

Bunts and other relatives and friends of the
feminine persuasion. It was undoubtedly
the pictticst matlnco ever gt\en In this

Just how many fair auditors there were
\ in the boxes , in the orchestra circle , around
the spiritless tables and In the balcony can
not bo told because the tickets were never
counted , but there were certainly 853 , and
there may have been 076. Spud Farrlah and
Tom Ormsby , who were on the door , lost
count at the former figure , all bewildered
with the beauty of the assemblage. Pryor
Warkol and Lyle Abbott , who acted as head
ushers , cald they thought they had the "ex-

A score of the best looking men in the lodge
were on hand to render every attention that

the top shelf and a couple of thousand

the gladdest "hands. " There were no

WOUNDED BY HIGHWAYMEN
J. W , Shaw Shot While Resisting Robbery
on the Way Home.
DESPERAFE CRIME OF TWO FOOTPADS
Thwarted In Their niTort nt Iloblicry ,
One of the .lieu Delllierati-ly
hhoolN and Narrowly Mlnxc *
KIllliiK Man They Attacked.
J. W. Shaw , day clerk at the Henshaw
hotel , owes his llfo to the unusual thickness I
of the overcoat ho wore last night. When '
returning from down town shortly after 8 I
o'clock , on the sidewalk In front of hla homo
ho was held up by two negro highwaymen ,
armed with revolvers , ono of whom shot
him , the bullet penetrating his clothing
and embedded Itself In the llesh close to the
collar bone , directly over the carotid artery.
The attending physician's opinion regarding
the wound was that had it been deeper a
halrsbreadth it would have llltely proved
fatal.
The circumstances of the holdup indicate
the desperate character of the perpetrators.
Within two blocks of the corner of Twenty-
eighth and Charles street , where It occurred ,
several people were passing. There was a
bright moonlight and as It waa early In the
evening there were men In the houses along
the street who would ha\e been attracted
by crlea for help.
Mr. Shaw was walking west on Charles ,
street and waa within a few feet of tno' '
slJoualk leading to the front door when he
was confronted by two men , who approached
from the opposite direction. They com- I
mantled him to throw up his hands , but
Shaw , thinking that the men were Joking ,
did not oven look at them and , keeping hla
eyes on the ground , stepped asldo to wait
till they passed before turning Into his
own yard. Then ho heard the command ,
'tHunda up ! " a second time and , raising his
ojcs , saw two negroes with revolvers leveled - j 1 i
eled at his head. Instead of complying with
their request he struck the man closest to
him and grabbed the arm of the other , hold
ing him so ho could not use the re\olver.
The first highwayman retreated a few
yards and , glancing back , saw his compan
ion in Shaw's clutches. Ho hail his choice
between leaving his pal to almost certain
capture and shooting the man they had
attempted to rob and ho chose the latter
alternative. The sharp report of hla pistol
rang out and ho turned and ran. Shaw fult
the bullet and , his arm becoming numb , he
relaxed his grip on the man ho was hold
ing and the latter , breaking away , followed
hls companion. Shaw watched the men ns
(
they disappeared around the corner of
Twenty-eighth street and then called a
physician. This is the story of the hold-up
as related by himself.
A description of the highwaymen wan
given to the police , who think that the men
were not negroes but merely blacked up
for tbo occablon.

spectively. Apart from a llttlo nervousness
in the orchestra which
, occasioned Bomo un
certainty behind the footlights , the per
formance was a success. Mme. DoVero
made au Ideal Juliet and 'her ' vocalization In
the waltz song was a thing of beauty , even
If not n joy forever. This consummate
nrtlst has taken a firm hold on the atten
tion of local musicians and It Is within the
limits of truth to state that she was a
pleasant surprise.
Ilomeo was made a living reality by Mr.
Mitchell. Mr. Winfred Goff as Mcrcutio waa
highly acceptable , his Queen Mali song be
ing especially clover. Miss Elcanoro Bro.irt-
foot increased the good reputation she has
already won. The scenery and costumes
were more superb In this opera than In any
preceding one.
"II Trovatore" was the evening bill. Mr.
Collonz wan Inclined to sacrifice nrt for
dramatic effect at times , but the work was
well received as n , whole.

out1. "Cavallerlu Hustlcana" will open the
program , given in full by Mmo. Kronold ,
