The repitlon ofthls charming opera by
iocal talent on Wednesday next at the Or
pheum theater promises to be the event of
ihe local musical season. So many and
urgent requests, both oral and written,
have been made to tho Omaha Guards for
s repition of the lata successful perform
ance that, having secured the servlfes of
tho Omuha Operatic association, with the
Me cast of characters, chorus and or
chestra, under the direction of W. H. Kin
ross, they take pleasure In announcing
Wednesday's performance. It may be a
long time before such au offering will again
be made, and the many who by reason of
other engagements were prevented from
attending on April 26. when other import
ant functions happened -and claimed their
attention, will doubtless take advantage of
the present and last opportunity of hearing
1 home-talent production which ranks with
the beat of professional performances of
ne of the most popular of the comic
Operas. The stage and settings ut the Or
pheum are peculiarly well adapted for the
production of opera, and the performers
are all enthusiastic and confident that they
will excel their first very successful effort.
The prices will be popular, ranging from
25 cents to Jl, and the box officii will be
opeu Monday, May 16.

We sold so many Alaska Refrigerators last week that
we were almost sorry we advertised them. We have just
received another large shipment, however, and are now
ready for another rush. Buyers cannot get away from
those $9.00, $11.00, $13.50 and $1G.50 patterns and the
, White Enamel Alaska
at $15.50 to $25.00 is even more popular.
RUBBER HOSE
You cannot afford to experiment with hose. It's either
govd or it's most awful poor. We not only warrant ours,
but back it with our experience of twenty- years' selling
