visitors to the imperial council who will
go over routes touching tr,! city for San
Francisco. They will arrive principally
Tuesdiy and Wednesday and one will get
no closer than Council Bluffs for enter

for an hour to connect with a westbound

local temple alll cross the river and mske

The larger part of Omah people for San
Francisco will leave the city Wednesday
evening In a special csr over the Burlington
route, while a number will patrontte the
Vnior. Pacific, the delesetes, however, going
by tbe former line. This was done because
the majority of the delegate bad already
gone to the coaat over the Union Pacific
and desired to see the country over the
Burlington and It connecting line.
Following up the thought expressed in
this column last week In regard to the pro
posed National Conservatory of Music and
Art I will quota the second psrsaraph of
the argument furnished by Mr. Kowaleky
In his able psmphlet to why America
should hsve such an Institution. lie Bay:
At the present time, at a conservative
estimate, there are 40,0 American stu
,1fnl ihmad scattered In the different
cities of Europe. The minimum sum for
which thev can be maintained In the cheap
est and mt economical parts of Europe
! equivalent to S2 per day. which means
firti a (lav rf American money paid to
foreigners, or t2.w. per month. Or you
may sav, for a three-years' term.

here at home thee four Institutions (that

annum.
The above 1 concise enough and con
vlnclng enough without any further com
ment. But I would merely urge upon tha
readers of this column to think seriously
upon the gravity of the situation and see
that some other person 1 Induced to do the

Resuming the 'thread of the Kowslssy

A writer in the Denver Republican,
predicating his remarks on theytatement
by Mr. Al Hayman that during tbe last
eaason t2S,000,000 was spent by the Ameri
can public on theater-going, half of it In
New York, complains that the west haa not
had Ita share of the good things, and
blame the "syndicate" for the existing
conditions. It may be that In some mesa-
-are the so-rXTrd theatrical trust Is to
blame, but the main difficulty seems to

far west. Around New Tork the world of
the stage revolves. We may cavil and sneer
If we like, snort If we wish and swear If
we want to, but the stubborn fact remain
- that in New Tork the stars can find ample
opportunity for the display of their talent
and liberal support during all the time
they care to remain on the (tag each sea
son. Long tours are no longer required.
A circle with Chicago in the west, St. Louis
In the south and Bis ton in the east will
rover the larger cities of the country, and
the great stars of the theatrical world can
efcs'ly find therein employment for years
without ever thinking of the real west,
much less visiting It. It 1 not pleaaaat
to think of this condition, much lea admit
that it Is true, but true it la. Western
people have humbled themselves to tbe ex
tent of holding out their dollars to tempt
tbe star, and without avail. Eastern

long as It can be had without the exertion
needed to corral the western caah, so long we
will have to put up with what we are now
saving. Omaha ha no especial occasion for
complaint on this score, for during tbe laat
eaaon we bad the greatest of the English
speaking actors and the most famous of
musicians, with many of the better grade
of modern plays and players. We hsve had
deelded advantage of Denver in this re
gard. And while our local theatrical
."bookings" are still the result of the ap
portionment mad by the New Tork syndl
cat we have the beat that have come west
Manager Burgess Is assured by his New
Tork agents that the next season will not
be behind the last In point of brilliancy.
Many a time and oft haa th syndicate

'Not puffed up. say est ibouT And prithee,

before the theatrical trust was dreamed up.
And what of Joe Jefferson, and "Billy"

with a golden yard stick? And why

exercises ln their lodge room, 1402 Dodge

eral branches of the order have been pre
paring an elaborate program and the

cance. The past year has witnessed more
than any other th deaths of prominent and
representative members, the sovereign
grand lodge alone reporting the death of
twenty-seven representatives. In the city
of Omaha the loss by leath has been more
than tha average and it la deemed proper
to observe the day with more than ordi

the Memorial Day association will visit
the several cemeteries on Sunday morning
and decorate the graves of deceased mem
bera. The afternoon exercises will be ln
