(Special.) The senate this afternoon gave up Its time to consideration of bills which provide for the Iowa monuments at Vicksburg park, Look out Mountain and Missionary Ridge, in memory of the Iowa soldiers burled there. The Vicksburg bill calls for $150,000 to be expended on one large state monument and many others marking the location of the various companies. It also provides that only 110,000 shall be used during the biennial period, which will be barely enough to commence the work. The plans have al ready been adopted In full. The bill In regard to Missionary Ridge provides that $25,000 shall be expended, but only $3,000 In the present biennial period, and that one large monument be erected on Lookout Mountain and two on Missionary Ridge. This Is In accordance with plans which were sdopted by a commission several years ago, but which have not been acted on yet. When the bills came up on apeclal order In the house thts afternoon there were vigorous speeches In relation thereto by Senators Blanchard, Courtrlght Young of Washington, Healey and others, after which the bills were passed. The senate mutilated the automobile bill which tbe bouse passed and after so doing reached the conclusion It would not be con stitutional anyway and sent it to the Judi ciary committee. Tbe bill seeks to regulate the running of automobiles, requires licenses, limits the speed and otherwise prevents the use of the machines on high ways in Iowa. Considerable time was spent In consid eration of the bill to adopt the township system of road supervision, but the bill was not finished. A resolution was Introduced by Senator Lewis to adjourn without day April 9. It will be acted on tomorrow. Township Law Publication.

The portion of the bill which provided for an Increase of the salary of his secretary was elim inated before passage. A bill wss passed to provide that county attorneys shall have the right to appoint their deputies and the county shall pay ths same In all counties of the state over 36,000 inhabitants. In smaller counties he may appoint the deputies, but they shall be paid only where they do special work. Ths bill Is to remedy a complaint that where the boards of supervisors select the depu ties the county attorney gets no good from the position, but the deputy becomes sim ply a counselor for the board and not a helper In county cases generally. A bill to give the right to selxe liquors without a warrant was discussed and sent to the Judiciary committee.

La Comtesse de Baume. Mabel Norton Donna Mencla Lhla Hall Donna Inez Helen Pasco Donna Maria Dolores de Mendoza Viola All'n Some half dozen or more years ago Viola Allen graced an Omaha theater with her presence, not as a star, but as leading woman of Mr. Frohman's Empire stock company. So well remembered Is she that nothing but standing room, and little of that, waa left unoccupied at Boyd's theater last night. What should be even more pleasing to Miss Allen than tbe enthusiastic reception she received at Its hands Is the fact that a more representative audience has not assembled In the theater before during the present season, and It Is doubt ful If a more thoroughly satisfied one has left It. "In the Palace of the King" Is a most effective pictorial romantic drama divided Into a half dozen scenes, rather than acts, each of which presents a different picture of the Interior of the palace of Phillip II of Spain. The sensational appeal of "The Christian" has not of course been repeated by the new book play of Miss Allen's, yet her host of admirers cannot help but be pleased with the predominant display of her personality which characterizes the piece throughout Its six tableaux, and her courtship scenes as Dona Maria Dolores de Mendoza, with Don John of Austria are certainly charming. Those who saw her In "The Christian" felt as though Glory Quayle were treating us to a masquerade In the Castlllan court lady's costumes. There are many of the same mannerisms, the same saucy llttlo shake of the head, the same half mannish accents In the emphatic lines, the same Individuality and temperament as marked her portrayal of the Hall Calne heroine. Viola Allen's art Is hardly to be meas ured by commonly accepted standards, for the reason that she does' nothing that can be measured by rules. We who knew chiefly by the Impressions left after seeing her In "Sowing the Wind," Liberty Hall," were surprised last night to note the breadth and depth she has attained. It is hardly fair to say "height," for MIbs Allen does not soar. In. this respect she Is doubly pleasing. She meets her scenes with a natural assumption MBiTliCni f ou car a g00l deal of XaXllw&sQ, the great progress in medi cal science, but there hasn't been so much progress after all. The doctors have not been able to improve on many of the simple old remedies used during the last hundred years. Every mother knows that old-fashionc J sweet oil is a good thing to rub on the nose, throat and chest for a cold, and a doctor can't prescribe anything better or safer ex cept Omega Oil. This Oil does all ' that sweet oil can do, and besides that it contains other ingredients that check and cure a cold in a wonder fully short time. It can be used on children with per fect safety, as it does not blister. A bottle in the house all the time may savo a life or a doctor's bill. Omega Oil Is good lor everything a ltalmeat esght to be good (us, s A HAND SAW IS A GOOD THING, BUT NOT TO SHAVE WITH." APOLIO IS THE PROPER THING of the situation, and at no time does she show the actress. Always is she Dolores, even in the most difficult rortlons of the play. She Is never anything but the warm-hearted. high-spirited, pure minded girl, deeply In love with the man of her choice, fighting with a maiden's weakness, which Is Indeed a mslclrn 8 strength, against and overthrowing plot ters who would have succeeded maybe against one less Innocent and honest. MIfs Allen's art lies In her ability to Interpret the most dlffli iilt of feminine roles, that of the Innocene. Miss Allen is fortunate tn being sur rounded with a company of uniform ex cellence. Of the characters In the play only a few stand out from the conventional melodrama types. The cardinal Is a colorful but not novfl figure. Walter Hitchcock, who enacts the role, adds strength to It by his splendid ability The king's part ss enacted by W. E. Bonney. Is a strong role In its sensationally melodramatic kind. But the unjque character of all Is that of the court dwarf, sarcastically called Adonis. The part is that of a minor Bertucclo. the half-pathetic hunrhback. a poor little Punchenello, who cannot forget the tortures of the rack that deformed him. weaves it self through the various scenes like a curious thread of scarlet. His humor is sharp and grim, born of his pain, and sen timent transfigures his hunch and fool's bauble into something pitiable and touch ing. Arthur T. Hoyt, who plays the part has much to do with making it what it Is. one of the most interesting characters of the piece, and his efforts can hardly help but make a reputation for him as a com petent character actor. William Pascoe Is quite an Ideal Don John of Austria and his portrayal of the handsome and fascinating brother of Phillip II of Spain is marked by a standard of excellence reached by few leading men that come this way. The production Is one of the best of Its kind seen here this season. The engagement closes with a special matinee this afternoon and a performance this evening. Klka' Mght at Orphenm. Last nlHht was Ellis' nlRht at the Orp pheum and upward of 300 of "the best people" gathered there to make up a center for a larro audience. It was mainly due to the presence of Milton Nobles, who Is one of the oldest members of the Omaha lodge, that last night was made so conspic uous by the order. As a matter of course the various entertainers furnished some amusement that was especially designed for the wearers of the antlers.
