A Urg crowd waa present on the laat Bight, several candidates passing through the gates.' From out of the city came men from half a doien states, so that everv available seat waa filled whan the chair man called the meeting to order. A ban ner was prominently displayed bearing the words, "Over Nine Hundred Members." Howard H. Baldrlge was the prlnclpsl speaker, who paid high tribute to the work of the society. Remarkable acores at the games were made by C. 8. Elgutter, J. C. Ktnsler and I. J. Dunn. F. 1. Foreman nf Baltimore Is not only very good at baae ball, but he Is an all-round sport, taking off most of the "dough" In the finals. Aa especial brew of beer, very popular with those who did not drink It, had been provided tor the luncheon, and waa soon exhausted by the demands made upon It. At the speaking which followed the games a short talk was made by the chairman, who said that all persons who take places n floats should be at the den at 6:30 p. in. Saturday, September 27, as the first float will leave the den about 7 o'clock. He In sisted upon this, as It will be necessary to give the parade on schedule time.

Trefa spoke briefly, paying tribute to the work of Que Rense, and say ing that be hoped to see the day that the order would be properly housed. At the conclusion of this talk three cheers were given for the superintendent, Gus Renie, who responded briefly, calling for cheers for eOtirge West, who has written the Initiatory services for several years.

Zoan'a maid Josephine Dracl Zebu, captain of Heantum's bodyguard Wlliard Bean After viewing "Corianton" one Is almost forced to exclaim as did Sheba at Solomon's magnificence, "The half ha not been told me." No good reason exists why a power ful play should not come out of Utah. In fields of art the Mormon has achieved no great distinction, and yet bis productions In srchltecture, music, and literature have served. If they bare not satisfied, bis peo ple. It may be that his aspirations bava leaped out to a wider world. At any rate, he was not forbidden to "make any graven image or likeness of anything that is In heaven or In earth or the waters under the esrth," and bis light has Anally Bashed forth. It may be a meteor' flight, or It may be a new star in the armament of art; only time can answer this, but Orestes U. Bean bas certainly given to the world a play of power and, what Is better than that, a play of purity. Vice has a large part In the play, but Is Introduced only for the pur pose of showing how hideous sin really is. It affords the sable background against which th bright hues of virtue are dis played to shine the brighter by the con trast. And to the embodiment of this lofty Idea Mr. Bean has brought the gift of po etic expression and the blessing of artistic Imagination, and the working out of bis thought ha resulted In a dramatically strong play dressed In appropriately at tractive garments. It Is not the purpose to take up the play In detail. "Corianton" Is not perfect, nor would one expect It so, but the pleee most thoroughly justifies all that bas been said In Its praise. It Is given with an Infinitude of pains, and present a remarkable succession of pictures from end to end. Its story Is simple. A deeply religious people under takes to work the conversion of a thought less, which stands as a, buffer between the devout and a savage race that alms at the destruction of both. Corianton, son of the prophet, 1 converted by the miracle which striKes down Korlhor, the scoffer, and beads the mission which undertakes to accomplish the alliance sought by preaching the true gospel. He Is thwarted in the moment of his triumph through the wile of a fallen woman, who repent too late. Stung by shame and remote, he makes a new resolvs, and finally saves his people. A a suplot the Inevitable thread of love runs a devious way to a satisfactory conclusion. Pervading all the play 1 a deep religious thought, which. towever, doe not at any time dominate the human Interest of the story. In Mr. Joseph Haworth' hands Corianton become a reality. Thl actor ha fairly realized all that was promised tor him, and stands pre-eminent on the American stage today aa an Illustrator of romantic tragedy. Hi physique and splendid voice afford an Ideal medium for the exploitation of bis ex- celent artistic thought. His support Is al most uniformly good. Cbarle Ray Bower, a Shlblon, brother of Corianton, a relig ious sealot with an unsounded depth of fra ternal love, and James H. Lewis, as Korlhor, the blasphemer, are actors of unusual merit. Miss Agnes Roseland, as Isabel, the siren, I Inclined to overact, ber deficiency In this regard being emphasised by the bearing of Mr. Haworth during their strong scene In the second act. Miss Thais Magran bas th Juvenile part of Rella, and doea It very well. No better ataged play waa ever seen at the Boyd and the chorus and ballet Incidental to Its production are marvellously refresh ing, the chorus being selected from the Tab ernacle choir of Sat Lak City, a recom mendation sufficient, and tb ballet being recruited from among the fairest of Utah's daughters. A fairly good audience warm: applauded the play last night. "Corianton" will be at the Boyd for the reat of the week, with matinees on Wednes day and Saturday. Rlaa-ltaaT Bros. Clrcas. "Christmas cornea but once a year and now 'tis almost here," runs the little ditty. Rlngling'a circus, like the glad Yuletlde, comes but once a year, and now It's come and gone. That's tb only sad feature to It. It' a pity that Christmas and Ringllng's both can't com on every day in th year, or stay longer when they do come, they both bring such universal pleasure. What better proof of the general popular ity of the great show and tha universal pleasure It gives thsn the admiring and cheering thousands that packed the mam moth tents at both performances yesterday! Surely no one who could have gone, or at least who could have gotten Inside tb tent, did not ge, for tb tent was bulged out on all sides, almost punctured In places, and then some. - Papas and mammas, grandpa pa and grandmas. Aunt Mary, Mallnda and Sarah and Uncle Jeb, Joalah and John Henry were all there, besides Aunt Lucy's ben and Cousin Em and all of their folks and the hired man. Then there were Cbawley and Augusta, L, 8tevsnus and all of "them boys." It was a typical circus crowd la the afternoon and another typical circus crowd In the night. And It was "th real thing" In th show line on both occasions. Never bas this great aggregation of wonders appeared to better advantage than It did at theae two performances yesterdsy. Rlngllng Bros.' circus bas a completeness about It that gives It th air of substantiality and places It be yond tb pel of ths ordlnsry show. They have a wonderful collection of animate and theae animal do some wonderful things. But tb wild animals, tamed to suit, era not all there are people who are equally a remarkable In their line. All th per formance and exhibition are a unique and interesting as could b seen under a circus canopy. Orajaa Recital for Baad. F. H. Wright. L.UC.

SETTLE THE TEXT BOOK CONTROVERSY "Stepping- Stoones of Literature" to Be Ised la the Public Schools Place Baa oa Boys Who Smoke. More than four hours were consumed by the Board of Education last evening In tha transaction of the business of the meeting and most of thst time wss occupied In contention over rule of order or ques tions of privilege. In spite of the pro nounced disposition on the part of some of the members to work at cross purposes with one another, the session wss not barren of results, for the work of restoring salaries to their status prior to the cut of Isst January was practically completed, and the earnestly debated question of the Introduction of, "Stepping Stones to Litera ture" was settled, for the time being at least, and various other matters which have given the board and Us committee more or less concern of late were dis posed of. President Barnard waa the only member absent and the chair was occupied by Vice President Howard. The committee on salaries having had before It the resolutions of Messrs. Wood and W. F. Johnson, proposing the Increase of certain salaries, recommended as a substitute for both of those measures that the salaries of the principal and teachers of the high school and the supervisors of kindergartens, music and drawing, and the superintendent of Instruction, be restored to the amounts respectively which these employes were receiving at the time of the adoption of the present rules, January (, 1902. Restores (he Old Rates. W. r. Johnson moved to amend the report by Incorporating a provision that all teach er who would have been entitled to an Increase by reason of term of service be given the natural Increase, and the mo tion to amend was adopted by fourteen affirmative votes. Finding the board in so liberal a mood, Mr. Johnson offered a fur ther amendment to place the salary of J. F. Woolery, second assistant prlnclpsl of the high school, at $140, on the ground that he bad not been given the Increase which hi advancement In position entitled blm to and was only drawng $130 per month. Robert Smith was unwilling to agree to that unless Miss Kate McHugh. first as sistant principal, was advanced from $1,590 per year to $1,800, and offered a substitute amendment fixing both of the salaries at the figure named. This amendment was also accepted by unanimous vote of those present, as waa still another Increasing the salary of J. F. Wlgman, teacher of manual training, from $100 to $110 per month, and the report with all of those amendments was adopted by a vote of 12 to 2, Messrs. Levy and Mcintosh voting In the negstlve. A report of llio couUulttee a sa'arSsa recommending that the pay of Thomas FlU gerald, custodian of the high school, be raised to $95 per month, was adopted by the same vote of 12 to 2. Stepping; Stoaea Adopted. The committee on textbook and courso of study renewed.. Its recommendation that "Stepping Stones to Literature" be adopted for gradual Introduction Into the schools above the second grades, specifying, how ever, that th Introduction should be in accordance with the rules now In force, which In effect defer the uae of the book until tb opening of the next school year. The presentation of thl report opened a general and animated discussion a to the desirability of making any change and the wisdom of making a change at thl time to take effect next year. J. J. Smith, chairman of the committee which bad reported, stated that In response to letter be hsd received replies from all and thirty-two of thirty-four favored a change from the Appleton readers. From a list of textbooks named in the letter twenty-two of the principals bad selected he "Stepping Stones" ss their preference. Robert Smith questioned the fairness of certain members of the committee in the wording of that letter to which Mr. J. J. Smith had referred and read from a copy of the letter to show that It was so worded as to convey te tbe prlpclpals the Informa tion that the committee had already de cided upon that particular book and desired that tha preference expressed should be In consonance with that idea. A motion on tbe part of W. F. Johnson to postpone the report until tbe second meeting In October, on tbe ground that there was no hurry abou adoplng new books tor nex year, was lost by a vte of 11 to S and the committee report wa adopted. A motion by Mr. Mcintosh to suspend tbe rule to adopt a resolution to have the change of booka take effect at once wa ruled out of order on th ground that tbe time bad been set, and a motion by W. F. Johnson to rescind the action of the board as to the time of adoption was laid on tbe table until the next regular meet ing. On recommendation of tb committee on text books and course of study, Williams A Rogers' were adopted for us In the high school and 275 copies will be or dered; also twenty-four text book on shorthand either of tbe Graham or Munson system, as the teacher of shorthand may elect. A report of the committee on supplies was adopted providing for the purchase of a pair of parallel bars and other gymna sium apparatus amounting In all to about $125. Penalty for saoklaa;. From the committee on rules there were two reports aa to the matter of dealing with smoking among the students of th high school. The majority report, signed by Mr. Mcintosh and Robert 8mlth. rec ommended the amendment of the rules ap plying to military Instruction In such a manner as to provide that "hereafter In the high school no young men who smokes clgsrettes be promoted to a position as officer la th cadet regiment." The minority report, which was from Mr. Funkhouser, waa simply less poaltlvs in Its wording and recommended that It be un derstood that In making promotions In ths cadet regiment the queatlon of whether a young man used tobacco or not would be taken Into consideration. After soma dis cussion ths minority report waa lost and the majority report adopted. A report from the committee on kinder gartens recommending that a kindergarten department be added to th Beal school wa adopted. Th committee on high school recom mended that la accordance with the sug gestions of tbe principal of the blgh school the girls who had elected to take gymna sium work be required while in the gym nasium to wear suits consisting of bloom ers, blouse, stockings and shoes and that certain changes b made In th shower hatha for convenience in the gymnasium work. Tb report was adopted. So roaapalaory Vaerlantloa. On the resolution of Mr. Cermak provid ing for vaccination as a rsqulsits for ad mission to the schools ths judiciary com mittee reported that after having conferred with tbe attorney the committee bad be come convinced that compulsory vaccina lion waa a subject for tha health depart ment rather then th Board of Education to deal with, and recommended thst the matter be dropp.d. Tbe report was sdopted. On recommendation of the committee on buildlnga and property the bid of W. P. Deverell to build a smokestack and coal room at the blgh school of bsrd ssnd brick was accepted. There were six bids and that of W. T. Deverell was tbe lowest. Tbe committee on boundaries reported al veraly on the application of F. A. Kllker, a resident of Benson, from free tuition In the high school for hi children on the ground that he is a taxpsyrr of this city. Tbe com mittee stated that the case was similar to a number of others In which the board had required that a tuition fee be paid and that tbe law did not grant free tuition to children, even though their parents owned taxable property within the school district. Tbe report was adopted. Tbe resignations of Edna Harney Water man, Elliabeth E. Phllllpps and Grace Mc Caulcy were accepted. The customary report of the comptrolle and city treasurer showing the conditlc n of the funds of tbe board were accepted and placed on file. Will Us AH Thin for Tea.

BOARD OF EDUCATION HOLDS SESSION John Jack man, After Five Ballots, Is Elected Truant Officer Library Deeds Are Ready Mnajle CHy Gossip. Mayor Kouteky declared yesterday that he wa In favor of Issuing a proclamation calling upon tb people to express their opinion on an issue of bonds' to take up tbe overlap. The mayor said: "At the present time the overlap amounts to about 162,000, and this ha been paid out of tbe 1902 levy. The payment of this outstanding Indebtedness has caused a shortage in the funds snd city employes will be compelled to discount their psy warrants for the next ten months, before th next levy will be available. When war rant are Issued the city pays interest at the rate of 6 per cent. Now, with an Issue of bonds, this rate could be reduced and the financial affairs of the city would be placed on a firm basis." In addition to tbe overlap bonds the mayor favor asking the voters for from $30,000 to $59,000 for the erection of a city ball. The lease for the building now occupied as municipal headquarters expires in De cember, 1903, and the mayor figures thst It will tske at least ten months to erect a suitable city ball In case the bonds aro voted at the November election. Another city official said: "For some years past the city baa been paying $145 a month for tbe present city ball, and the accommodation furnished are not adequate to the needs of the city, as the quarters are cramped. More room is needed. In addition to this, $40 a month I being paid for rental for the fire hall on Twenty fourth street. Then there is the rent for the mayor' office and the office of city attorney, which together amount to $25 a month. Thl makes a total rental of $210 a month." It I asserted by certain business men In terested In South Omaha bonds that there would be no difficulty In disposing of these sect-lties. In case only overlap bonds were voted the Interest would be $2,70 a year, while If the $50,000 city hall bond were voted the Interest would-be $5,040 a year. Mayor KouUky had a conference with City Attorney Murdock yetsreday evening and It is possible that a proclamation will soon be forthcoming. ' Bids Turned Down. A meeting of the Board of Education was held Monday night, with President Miller In the chair and all members present. One of the features was tbe opening of bids for coal supplies for the school. Tbe cost advert toed for was mine run, to be deliv ered In sealed box cars at South Omaha, free on board. When tbe bids were opened It wa decided that the board bad made an error and that it would be bttter to advertise again and state that the coal was to be delivered at the school houses, where It would be needed. All coal bought by tbe school district must be weighed over the city scales.

Sev eral years ago, the writer of this, who has spent much of his life in the tropics, thought he was safe from sunstroke. One day he collapsed, remained uncon scious for five hours, and at times his life was disnaired of. As a matter of fact, any person whose stomach and bowels are in bad shape in the summer time, is liable to be sunstruck in temperature that would be harmless under normal conditions. That's all there is to it. Stomach anrl hnuela full ef fetterlnrr fermenting refuse that forms acids and gases, uiooa many degrees, icntists have tound that natives of the South Sea Islands, living on laxative fruit, bananas, cocoanuts, bread-fruit, have a temperature iiO degrees lower than that of white men who are careless about their food or their bowels. It has been found in years of experience, that a CASCARET Candy Cathartic taken at bed-time every night will keep the body clean and cool inside all day, and forms a safe and thoroughly reliable form of sunstroke insurance. rosea; or year nwn isruu and malt ten cell.
