A number of the policemen recently die-
charged by the fire and police board hav
retained an attorney and propose com
mencing suit againat the city for their
pay. These suits are to be filed snorny
after June 1. First a demand will be made
on the board for the payment of the sal
aries of the discharged men, and In case
this should be refused suit Is to be started.
It will be alleged that the men were die-
charged without any charges having been
filed or a trial of any sort.
T. J. Nolan, a member of the police com
mission, said last night to a Bee reporter
that In his opinion the men discharged
had no cause for action. "When this board
took hold of affairs," said Mr. Nolan, "It
directed that every member of theflre and
police departments flle application for po
sitions. In going over the applications the
board rejected some. The board merely
acted on the applications, and no trial wa
necessary to remove any of the member
of the department.
"Those members of the departments
whose applications have not been acted
upon are merely acting members. In the
case, of Chief Brlggs, he sign all of hi
official papers a acting chief. In the case
of members of the department appointed
by the board It will b necessary to prefer
charges and hsve a trial before an order
for dismissal can be Issued."
In conclusion Mr. Nolan stated that In
the case of some of the member of the
police department removed it would be
better for them not to start anything, a
the board I supposed to have evidence of
Incompetency which would be brought out
should th cases go to the courts.

McLean Want Addresses.
superintendent McLean of the publlo
schools is anxious to ascertain the name,
address and occupation of every graduate
of the South Omaha high school. Last
evening Prof. McLean said: "I find that
the records In the superintendent's office
are Incomplete In respect to the name of
the graduate of the high school. I should
like to hav every graduate, wherever lo
cated, send me name, address and occupa
tion in order that a complete record may
be made. In some Instances I find that
pupils were allowed to graduate without
taking the full course, permission to grad
uate having been given upon the promise
to return In the fall and finish the course.
In several instances this promise to finish
the course has not been kept. Members
of the high school alumni are assisting
t-roi. icLan in securing the names nf
graduates.

A truly magnificent audience, represent
ing the social and musical people ot Omaha,
filled the Immens area of the Coliseum last
night, the occasion being the climax con
cert of the very successful May festival
which waa then brought to a close.
To say that Omaha went wild with en
thusiasm over the musical gems Which
were offered, would be a mild description
of 'the tumult of applause which greeted
each number.
The scene presented was one never to be
forgotten. The stage picture, which In
cluded the superb orchestra the Metropoli
tan Opera House orchestra of New York
backed by the chorua of over 160 people,
the women gowned In soft white, the men
In evening dress, behind that the national
colors, blended with those of Ak-8ar-Ben,
and above all the starry dome of electric
lights truly a scene from fairyland.
The orchestra opened the program with
the old war horse, "Rleml" overture, In
which the beautiful ensemble of that fine
body of say sixty Instrumentalists wa
well brought Into evidence.
Mr. Due conducted In a most original
manner. He I not what one would call an
orthodox conductor, but he I magnetlo, h
believe In action, and Uvea up to hi be
lief. He might almost be termed the Sousa
of the orchestral world at times. His baton
s a conjurer' wand, and he swings It
with flourishes galore. Monsieur d Resxke
not being on hand when the second num
ber waa called, Mr. Duss took occasion to
give a most Interesting talk in connection
with the "Bymphonle Pathetlque" of Tsch
alkowsky. Mons. De Reszke, with his
glorious voice and stage presence, his ar
tistic tone-production, his ease of delivery
and perfect enunciation, captivated the
audience, which showered so much applause
upon him that he gave the familiar old
song, "The Palms." Thl, of course, cre
ated a storm, which the good-hearted big
basso responded to by singing the "Port
er' Song" from "Martha," to piano ac
companlment by Mr. Romayne Simmons.
The movements from the "Bymphonle
Pathetlque" were very Interesting to tha
music-lovers, the first movement showing
abundant color and variety of Instrumental
tion, while the "Adagio Lamentoso ' was
a fine example of broad, massive tone- as
semblage, reminiscent Indeed In many
pot of the Immortal "Largo" of Handel
but none the worse for that.
Madame Nordlca, America' American,
and Art' artist par excellence, wa In
troduced In the celebrated "Polonaise'
from Ambrols Thomas' "Mlgnon," which
showed oft her superb vocalisation, her
magloal run, trill, staccatl, and mlracu
lou octave Interval to the unbounded de
light of the audience. Thla magnificent
piece of work brought, of course, an ea
core, with piano accompaniment, a Brahma
aong. The Interpretation and general con
cept of the song and the bewitching
'mexso voce" united In forming an art-
pearl of varied' color and perfect sym
metry.
But this wa not enough. Another en
core was demanded and most graciously
given and again eh wa recalled several
times to bow acknowledgement of the
plaudltory tribute.
The first part of th program closed with
the three English Dances from the "Henry
VIII" Incidental music by Edward Ger
man, and showed - well the scintillating
brilliancy of that . fascinating English
composer of today, r This waa given
line reading by Mr. Dusa, and th or
chestra responded, ( course. In splendid
styles granting alse an encore, "Loin du
Bal.M by Olllet. rsat .
The well known and devotional "Prelude'
to "Lohengrin" openedi the second part,
and was played with that Intelligent skill
which characterized'-everything that wa
don' by the orchestra. 'The religious
emotion depicted as the "Holy Grail," or
sacred chalice of the cross, descends, borne
by angel and again' ascends, were faith
fully portrayed.
M. De Reszke sang the aria, "Infellce" of
Verdi, that perennial old melodlou aria.
HI vole wa mellow like old wine, and
In the aria following which he graciously
gave a an encore, the exquisite, elegant
"To Scene of Peace" ot Mozart, hi tone
wa magnificent. Following this he gra
cloualy acknowledged the appreciation of
the audience by singing the Serenade from
Berlioz' "Damnation of Faust."
But applause and more applause, and
then the Serenade from Tschalkowsky'
"Don Juan."
All of these did Mona. De Reszke give
with a free heart and gladly. Mr. Nahan
Franko conducted the accompaniment last
named with skill.
The violin solo, prelude to "The Deluge,
by Camilla St Saens was played with
consummate finish by Mr. Franko. HI
I a singing, sobbing, speaking tone, full
of warmth, color and Intensity, For an
encore the old familiar "Largo" of Handel
proved most acceptable. Mr. Franko waa
shown laat night that Omaha claim him
yet as one of her sons.
The "Inflammatu" from Rossini's
"Btabat Mater" by Mm. Nordlca and the
May Festival Choir, waa a great hit, and
wa repeated In part. Mr. Dusa read a let
ter from Mr. Kelly announcing that he
had requested Mr. Franko to conduct thla
number, as he himself was Indisposed, be
ing in the nuiiding out tne victim or a
bad attack of rheumatism. Mr. Franko
conducted with accuracy and musicianship.
The concert cloaed with the venerable
Blue Danube Waltz."

NEW YORK. May 15.-The Army and
Navy Journal will print a letter from Gen
eral Miles tomorrow In which he says he
went to the Philippines In an official ca
pacity and that his Instructions came from
the president, who directed him to give
peel a I attention to the Instruction, dis
cipline and supplies, of the army.
Coming to the subject of cruelties in the
Philippines, General Miles' letter reads;
It Is Idle to assume that campaigning In
the PhillDnlnes has conditions that warrant
resort to medieval cruelty and a departure
from an honorable method ot conuuctlng
warfare, and that such depredations should
be overlooked and condonen.
It is most arat fv Ina that the serious
onenaes have not been committed by the
soldiers unless under the direct orders of
certain officers who were responsible. Sol
diers have withheld fire when ordered to
shoot prisoners, protested againat acts or
cruelty and written to relatlvea at home
urging them to take action to put a stop
to these crimes. It will ever be one of the
glories of the army that such deeds, ooin-

Prealdent Felton Talk of Arrange

Alton Road.
President S. M. Fe'.ton of th Chicago A
Alton railroad, who wa on the Harrlman-
Burt special that passed through Omaha..
from tha west at midnight Thursday, said
his road had Just completed extensive track
Improvements on Its main line from Chi
cago to St. Louis In preparation for the
world's fair.
We will be right In the thick of It."
said President Felton, "and will have to
make Improvements ana enlargements In
our equipment that no other condition ha
ever demanded. We have done a great
deal ot double-tracking and roadbed' work
that places' our line In the most excellent
condition and Insures for us the -most com
plete success In undertaking the transpor
tarion of the vast throngs that will be go
ing back and forth between theae two great
cities throughout the fair period. We are
now working In conjunction with various
other railroad entering St. Louis on the
terminal arrangements at the world's fair.
These will be surpassing In arrangement
and facility. Practically all the arrange
ments for extra construction work mads
necessary by the world's fair and most ot
the actual work Is already done, but It I
now the question of handling the crowds
that Is commanding our attention. The
crowds promise to be the greatest ever
known in this country, and therefore the
transportation question may be considered
the biggest with which theae road ever
have had to contend. But we feel jubilant
over the prospect of coping with the situa
tion. Everybody has gone to work In a
way that Insures complete success.
"The Alton' car and engine equipment
la being materially Increased.' We now
have fifty new passenger coaches In process
of construction and a number of locomo

a foretaste of what the big show would
be, and I think served to help us In de

and preparation."

ing as he or she came on the stage last
evening. Lillian Russell Is still the mag
nificent type of American womanhood, so
far aa visible charm are concerned, we
have known for such a long time. In her
personal appearance Is the most effective
advertisement for physical culture known.
She makes no bone of the fact that It Is
from exercise alone that she derives the
perpetual youth that seem to b her.
Bhe never was much shakes a an actress,
and her singing ability has never been such
aa to endanger the reputation of the great
tar of the operatic world, but she Is cer
tainly good to look at
Fay Templeton may her shadow decrease
until It I only about half what It now la
gives physical evidence of the lapse of time
since she first sang her way into Omaha'
heart; but with the maturity that follow
In the wake of year ha come the ripen
ing of an artlstlo instinct that Is now In
Its fullest bloom, and which Justifies her
recognition as the unquestioned leader In
her line. Her voloe is still rich and reson
ant, and musical in a high degree, and
while her acting has lost Its girlish charm.
It has .taken on th fuller and rounder
lines of experience, and 1 therefor the
more satisfactory. Louise Allen Is m Just
what she haa always been, an extremely
clever woman, and her burlesque of Mary
MacLane is one of the most delightful
things of the sort ever shown here.
Of the men little need be said beyond
the fact that each sustains his reputation.
All are well known for their ability a
comedians. In the Instance of Mr. Collier
one Is pleased to notice that he shows the
advance due to the careful schooling he
ha had In the way of repression, and a
consequent development of, ability. In
the selection of a chorus the manager
have been unusually happy, having secured
bunch of girl with fresh looking face
and sweet, clear voice and muscle that
apparently never tire. At any rate, they
hustle from first to last. There Isn't an
Idle minute for them chorus girl, and on
the stag there Is Something doing all the
time. Omaha people were never better
entertained than last night.
