Is not surprising that the theater was not
filled Monday night. It Is a reasonably as.
surcd fact, however, that those who saw
her splendid performance will spread their
praises of her work broadcast and that she
will leave the city well established In the
affections of the theater-goers. While It Is
unfair to compare her style to that of any
of the other actresses with whom Omahans
are more familiar, sines she possesses
marked individuality and a style wholly
her own. It may be said that the dainti
ness and finish of her work are not unlike
that of Julia Marlowe. Her voice rings
with a sympathetic sweetness that Is
charming, while her dainty mannerisms,
together with the Intelligent reading an.1
satisfactory portrayal she gives her part,
win for hcr the admiration of her every
auditor.
Tho play Itself Is an excellent bit of
wcrk, which reflects much credit upon Mr.
Marshall. Its author. It Is fittingly termed
a comedy romance and, like tho majorlt)
of Its kind, has the threat of a love story
running through It, around which other In

The story of "A Royal Family" may be
briefly outlined as follows: Angela,
daughter of Louis VII of Arcacla, refuses
to marry Prince Victor of Kurland, because
she has never seen him. The princess Is
a highly educated nineteenth century girl
and Insists on having her own way. To
avert a war between the two countries,
ahe Is asked to sacrifice herself, but she
rebels In language that shocks the ears of
her royal father and her royal grand
mother, the queen dowager the last a

troduces Prince Victor disguised as Count
Bcrnadlnc, an old pupil, and thrown Into
the company of this charming man, the
princess soon finds food for romance. The
lover, while pleading for himself ln tome
pretty love passages, also pleads for his
supposed master. Prince Victor. The secret
of the prince's Identity Is kept to the very
last moment ot the state betrothal, when
the princess, pale and martyr-llkc, with
eye cast down, gives her hand to the
prince, A glance of curiosity, recognition
and of the protoundest Joy brings a climax
to the play that for the artistic treatment
given It by Miss Russell cannot be excelled
and sends the audience home with nothing
but the most pleasant memories.
In support of Miss Rusjell are such ven'

A decidedly Interesting meeting ot the
city council was held last night and It
looked at one time at Is there, was going
to be a real genuine knock down and drag
cut. The fuss started when Johnston
brought up the matter of printing bills. In
the first place Johnston had brought up
fr.im the city Jail the prisoners' record
and by comparison with former years he
showed that enough bound records were on
hand to last the city for fifteen years.
Miller, as chairman of the printing com
mittee, had ordered two Jail records at
a cost of J60 when the present record of
&00 rages is not one-quarter used up, Then
Johnston showed that at the rate prisoners
are bcoked at the city Jail the books now
on hand wilt last for a decade and a half.
He then brought up the text book receipts
and showed wbcre Miller had paid 19". 50
for books which could have been bought
for 156. Other alleged extravagances on
the part of Miller were aired much to the
amusement of those present. In his own
behalf Mr. Miller stated that he had been
tricked by Chief Mitchell In the purchase
of Jail records. He asserted that the chief
had given him to understand that a new
1,000-page record was needed, ns the book
ln us.! was nearly filled. Miller further
stated that Mitchell showed him a book,
purporting to he the Jail record, which
was nearly filled. As one book of 1,000
pages was too cumbersome he had ordered
two books of 500 pages each.
At the conclusion of the talk bctwien
Johnston and Miller the former secured the !
passage of a motion making It the buslnesi I
of two members of the printing committee I
to sign all orders for work and this only I
after heads of departments had submitted 1
a requisition showing the number of books !
or the amount of stationery on hand.
This little spat did not, however, end
the fight between the two councllmen from
the old Fourth ward. A little later on I
Miller sent a motion to the clerk's desk j
requesting the council to deduct J139 from
the salary of Councilman Johnston, alleging !
that Johnston owed the taxpayers this
amount. Then Johnston did get on his high
horse and he roasted Miller until the
"fearless little giant." as he calls him
self, became decidedly nervous.
Johnston said Miller pesed as a friend
of the taxpayers, but his personal opinion
was different. He made an aspersion
against his honesty, to which Miller re
plied with on Imputation upon bis veracity,
and It looked for a moment as If there was
going to be romethlng done. Mayor Kelly.
who occupied the chair, prevented hostili
ties by threatening to send for an officer.
Then Johnston went on to say that Mil
ler bad accepted presents from people who
had business to transact with the city
authorities. This statement made Miller
angry and he tried hard to get recognition
from the chair In order to reply, but Mayor
Kelly declared him out of order.
At the conclusion of the second round
Mayor Kelly read the council a little lec
ture, ln which he said that ln the future
he would not permit one member to slan
der another. "It Is hard enough," said
the mayor, "to hold office In South Omah.i
without having one member of the council
abuse another In open session." With this
talk the Incident closed.
Dan Hannon was awarded the contract
for grading E street from Twenty-third to
Twenty-fourth street at 12H cents per
cubic yard.
Johnston wastrd the city attorney directed
to proceed at once with a suit to recover
certain moneys from the Omaha Gas com
pany and the Schlltz Brewing company. He
specified the carnages cases of Elsfelder.
Burke and Schlegel against the gas company
and the Mary Johnson case against the
Schlltz Brewing comnany.
City Attorney Lambert was present and
stated that he now had seventy-nine cases
against the municipality pending In the din-
trict court. He asserted that he would cet
around to the matter as sson as possible.
Acting on a suggestion from the city at
torney a committee of the council will

Demand Sichroeder'a Resignation,
The feature of last night's mcctlnc at the
Board of Education was the presentation by
the Taxpayers' league of a number of Deri-
tlrns. The first petition read by Hon, David

dem'.nd for the Immediate resignation of
Theodore Schroeder The petition at read
by Mr Anderson and filed with the board
ts as follow.i:

son, F. J. Persons, J. D, Dennett, Frank
Plvonka, A. L. IlergqulM, John F. Schultt
and August Miller.
After the reading of the document Pres
Idcnt Rulla directed that It be referred to
the Judiciary committee and Mr. Schroeder.
Next came a demand from the league
that the board allow one Frank Crawford
to check over the books of the school dis
trict from July 1, 1000, to October 1, 1501
David Anderson, A, L, Rergqulst, George
L. Hasklns, T. J. O'Neil and C. M. Hunt
signed this petition.
Secretary Ryan rather headed off argu
ment on this subject by making a motion
that the board employ an expert to audit
the accounts for the period mentioned and
the motion prevailed.
Then them was another petition, signed
by a dozen or more people, demanding to
know the nimes of the members of the
Taxpayers' league. After the reading of
this document, which was laid away among
the files, the regular routine business was
taken up.
The certificate of Miss Conrey was dls
custed and It was shown to the board that
she possesses a certificate from the county
superintendent and also one from Green
county, towa. t'pon fhls showing the mem
bers of the Taxpayers' league withdrew
their objections to her teaching In thi
schools here.
When Mr. Anderson referred to the posi
tion of music teach-r arid again requested
that Miss O'Connor, who holds that posi
tion, be dismissed a long discussion ensued
upon the proposition that the board has
no legal authority to employ a supervisor
of music. Mr. Anderson s contention wa
that nothing ln the school law provides foi
a special teacher of music. He said fur
ther that his first objection was to tho
qualifications ot the present Incumbent
President Bulla asserted his belief In Un
employment of a teacher of music In the
city schools and Immediately wrote a mo
tion providing for the employment ot a
music teacher. This motion prevailed, al
though Kubat and Lott voted against It,
The balance of the session was taken up
with the transaction of routine business.

SOUTH OMAHA. Oct 7. To the Editor
of The Bee: It seems queer that a stout
democrat seeks the columns of a repub
lican r.ewtpaper to help the gocd cause nf
his political party. Last week appeared
In your paper a letter regarding the South
Omaha German-American Democratic club,
wherein the officers, the president, vice
president and secretary were accused if
unbecoming conduct toward the club mem
bers. Though the letter did not bear a
signature. It was by no means ot an anon
ymous charnctcr. To the club members
the writer frankly admitted his autlr r-s.lp.
but to the public ln cn.eral. a h(j stl
matlon, he owed no such obllgutiou. H?
did not teek notoriety, but honorable ac
tions among and toward democrats.
At the las club meeting the letter writer
was called to tee carpet, i lmroaucea
myself to the club as an American citizen
of German (foreign) birth, a stout demo
crat and a good member ot the club, with
principles not tolerating ine to assist cor
ruption The proceedings were fierce. I
was dumbfounded to learn that the stars,
as Intriguers, had a chorus of supporters
ln tow, consequently my case became
Identical with the famous Captain Dreyfus
case, the innocent was denounced a traitor
and found guilty, while the guilty ones
were found not guilty, but they were
branded, and so they are here. I was re
quested to resign as a member, which I
promptly did.
Now. every fair-minded person must ob
serve that the publication of this and the
former le'ter neither benefits the repub
licans nor harms the democratic party
It Is a pure and simple standoff, but It
means to prevent a certain clique, that
acts different behind the scenes than on
the stage, from grabbing undeserved laurels
ln case of victory. Yours truly,
