erty owners. Colonel C. M. Hunt pre
sided and H. M. Christie filled the chair

and O streeU, $10,000. Mrs. Anna Rowley
offered to leas the property at Twenty
fourth and K streets for twenty-five
fifty years, but this was not consisted
at all, as a leas Is net desired.
- After Chairman Jetter had mad his re
port, in whlah be merely sav the names
of the bidders and the location of the
property, not mentioning: the prioa, he
suggested that the committee be given
further time In making a request for
further time end as a reason for sup
pressing the figures given, Mr. Jetter said
that the Board of Review Is in session
and he did not think It fair to propertx
owner to put a value on their land at
this time. With the oonsant of those
present Chairman Hunt gave the coin'
tttltte three weeks In which to raak an
other report.
On the matter of parks. Dr. McCrann

CHORUS NIGHTS ARE POPULAR
People Crowd the Aadlterieaa to Hear
the 8k a ley Festival Orcasw
. Isatloxv.
'it seems that the people Ilk chorus
nights better than regular concert even
ings at the Auditorium, at least the crowds
on the nights when the chorus appears are
usually much larger. Last night was al
most a record breaker, there being no va
cant seats in the mammoth building.
Th program was exceptionally good
Th chorus showed more confidence and
on this account considerable Improvement.
Th "Hymn of th West," when Ben Stan
ley directed, and th "Song of th Vikings,"
during which J. H. 81 turns wielded th
baton, were exceptionally well rendered,
as was also the scene from "II Trovatore."
Th anvil chorus, which was repeated,
seemed to meet the entire approval of th
audience. Every number on the program,
however, was encored. Mrs. Partridge was
in very good voice and responded to an
encore when ah sang "Elsa's Dream,"
from "Lohengrin."
During the intermission the members of
the chorus presented Director Innes with
a very handsome snake ring set with a
diamond, ruby and emerald. Ben Stanley
and J. H. Slmma, th directors of th
chorus, wer also th recipients of presents
In the form of old English ale mugs mads
of wood, of very large else and sliver
mounted. Director Innes thanked the mera
bers of th chorus In a very brief but
cordial manner for Its kind remembrance
of him. Messrs. Blinrns and Stanley also

AT THE PLAYHOUSES
"The Cowboy aaa tke Lady aj tae
Boyd.
What Clyde Fitch doesn't know about
cowboy Is almost equal to what he doesn't
know about women; but let that pass. He
didn't writ "The Cowboy and the Lady"
for western consumption; It was Intended
for Nat Goodwin's uses la the east, where
neither the western man nor the western
woman Is understood, arid where the pop
ular belief in the ability of the Harvard
young man to conquer all out-doors Is
still unshaken. But Mr. Fitch did get
a lot $f genuine comedy, and quit a kittle
of human nature into his play, no matter
bow far . he missed the mark when h
aimed at types. For this reason the place
Is always sir of a hearing. It Is now
being presented at the - Boyd theater by
the Ferrla Stock company and is being
very well done.
Dick Ferris has th part of Teddy North,
the Harvard young man who transplants
his book learning and physical culture
to a cow ranch and makes good with
them. It Is another of those parts that
suit Mr. Ferris so well; on In which swing
and insouciance carry off the vlotory, al
though It admits of times when genuine
feeling must be expressed, and this with
undoubted earnestness. Its contrasts are
those of sharpness and when well
don are th pleasing mutations of a
strong nature, rather than the vacillations
of a weak. And Mr. Ferris does the
part well.
Mr. Owen's Weston Is den as all his
parts are, with taste and good judgment,
and stands out clear and distinct Mr.
Long's Qulckfoot Jim Is also good and
so Is Mr. Sullivan's Billy Ransom.

her excellent opportunities, Her strong

carries them well. Miss Davis, Miss Hill
and Miss Carmontelle acquit themselves
as always, with credit "Th Cowboy and

FAINTING BERTHA AT WORK
William raroom, m Confectioner,
Los Forty Dollars to the
Wily Charmer.
William Zaroom, who runs a fruit and
candy store at $30 South Thirteenth street
is th latest victim of the wiles of "Faint
ing Bertha," who la said to have robbed
him of $40.
According to him, th woman entered
his store yesterday, morning and requested
10 cents worth of candy. Hardly had she
been served than her arms relaxed, her
fac paled and. with a little moan she
dropped against th show case. . It took
but a moment for th gallant Zaroom to
vault the barrier between them and hurry
to th assistance of the fair on who lay
In his arms "the very picture of distress.
It took some time for her to regain con
sciousness and In doing so she seemed to
get hysterical and clutched at Zaroom's
suspneders (Zaroom had off his coat), much
to that man's discomfiture.
After regaining consciousness she
thanked him In the prettiest .manner pos
sible, was so sorry to have troubled him,
but waa so vary thankful that there hap
pened to be a gentleman near when the
accident occurred. She tripped away, mur-
muring her thanks and smiling sweetly
on the chivalrous Zaroom who, between
hla bows, intimated that be Was thankful
to be ose to a lady In distress. I

There was $40 missing. It was strange. He
must have misplaced It He searched high
and low, racked his brain as to Its where
abouts, am finally Informed hla wif of
the loss, but never connected It with the
Innocent face and girlish form who had
called him a gentleman. The wife advised
him to tell the police, which he did.
As it happened "Fainting Bertha" had
but that morning been discharged from the
police court, having been arrested th
night before on her arrival to thla city
after an absence of many months, and her
peculiarities was the subject under dis
cussion when Zaroora entered th police
station.
"Did a woman faint In your arms?" was
asked. , .
"Tea," replied Zaroam, "but that Is noth
ing. She was"
Without saying more he was shown a
photo of "Fainting Bertha" and admitted
that was the woman. When he left th
station house he was a humbler, wiser
man, surprised that such an Innocent face
and such a girlish form could cover such
an amount of perfidy. The police up to a
lata hour last night had been unable to
arrest her. "
Th woman did th trick so neatly that
?,he actually opened his pocketbook while

th money closed It

mand of th troops, appeared a though,
be had bean treated to sufficient worry and
xerclse, to last him the rest of his natural
life. There were a' few wee, small yella
left In the boys, but tbey escaped Inter
mittently and not with that constancy of
purpose which marked the departure of the
cadets from the city. , '
After getting1 off the special train which
bore them Into the city they wer formed
In line and marched to the depot, where
they waited some little time for arrange
ments to be made for transporting such
baggage as waa carried uptown. After th
arrangements had been completed the or
der waa given and the boys "hit th pike"
for uptown.
When they reached the high school
grounds Captain Btogsdall formed them in
Una and called for the senior officers of
the various companies, who approached
him In front of the ranks and shook hint
by th hand In farewell He spoke' a few
brief words to the officers, thanking them
for their assistance and expressing pleas
ure that he had been fortunate enough to
meet them and- that such pleasant relatione
had been maintained during the entire time .
that he has had charge of the cadets.
Ranks were then broken and the boys re
paired to their homes.
Just after alighting from th cars at the
station th band played "Home, Sweet
Horn" and "There'll Be a Hot Time In
th Old Town Tonight" Not much of a
crowd was out to see the boys return, but
a tew anxious parents gathered at, the sta
tion and some of th high school girls
blushlngly grasped the boys by the hands
when they stepped off the train.
Sergeant A. Mould suffered from quite a
sever attack of fever during the time
that th cadets were in camp, but he was
sufficiently recovered to come home with
the party on the special. He did not leave
th oamp, but waa attsnded by a physician
on th grounds.
