The mayor, rlerk and treasurer met in the council fhimhtr aa the board authorised by the charter to ranvim the primary elec tion returns. The first duty reaulred of l hem was to canvas the face of the re turn: secondly, ss a recount had been de manded by P. J. P.arret and Thomas O'Con nor, the board made a reeount of the votea m the office to which they aspired. The resding of th face of the returna did not materially chatyre the result, though there were several corrections. These did not cause any difference In those nominated. The largest discrepancy discovered was In the case of Frank Dworsk. It was found that ha had been credited with forty votes too many. Still he had enough to win by a Urge plurality. A soon as the face of the returns was canvassed the board took up the recount of the democratic ballots. This required all tha afternoon. The result of the recount showed that Queenan had been credited with li vote too many, while Tom O'Con nor had been given 12 too few. In place of 477 for Queenan the corrected figures should be' M, and the correction in O'Con nor's case reads from CC to Ki. Most of this discrepancy mas found in the First of the Sixth ward. In the recount of tha vote between P. J. Barrett and W. H. Martin Barrett gained 1 vote, making the dif ference le. instead of hi. Ceannlteenen Elected. The following will constitute the central committee of the republican party. In the order In which they wtre elected: E. E. Howe, John T. Shutti. John iaron. O. H. Leptln. T. M. Gallowsy, T. M. Con way, C. H. Offerman. W. T. Slate, Frank Novak, C'hartts Cummlng. Jay I-averty and F. A. Billinger. Tha central committee newly' elected took office last night. It met In II. C. Murphy's office and effected a permanent organisa tion. Jay Laverty, chairman: Charles Of ferman, secretary; T. M. Galloway, treas urer. Tha executive committee conslited of the above officers, with the addition of Otto H. Leptln and John T. Bhults. The headquarter will be In the Murphy block, meeting Tuesday evening-. The democratic committee is as follows: . Richard Davany, John Russell. John Franek, J. P. Lenthan. J. T. Carey, P. J. Walsh, Tim Sullivan. P. J. O Connor. W. B. White. Joseph Hughes, W. II. Bloane, W. P. Corrlgan. I This committee auto met and organised. Only tha temporary organisation was ef fected tost night, in which W. B. White was chosen chairman and Richard Devany secretary. There will be a later meeting to perfect the organisation. This meeting of the democratic committee was a strug gle for harmony, and it was a hard strug gle In several cases. All of them talked favorable to the thinr. but few could agree a to the plan. They did come to some sort of agreement as to the manner of raising funds for the campaign. Tha can didates for mayor, treasurer and tax com mlssloner will be assessed $180 each, the city attorney $125. the clerk 1100 and each member of the council will be called upon to pay $50. It Is planned to hire every available hall In town so as to exclude the republicans from a place of meeting, though this will cause a laugh on the part of the republicans, who have been having regular meetings for the last month and have al ready secured promises for the rest of the campaign. The closing act of the primury election. aside from the recount of the republican ballots In the contest cited, mill b the tiling of affidavit of expenses, which is required of all the candidates whether elected or not. and this Includes the committeemen as well as the other officers. Cl(r Coaajell Proceeding.. There were no matter discussed In the city council other than the usual routine business. A crowd gathered on account of a rumor that the city hall site was to be brought up again, and there m-as some ex peetation that the semer bonds mould re celvs some attention. Nothing of this na ture) transpired, though Mr. Anderson and H. M. Christie were on hand In case the hall site needed attention. Among the budget of business was the presentation oi tha general bills for the month of Febru ary. The Items were: General fund, H.M1.M; police.

EASY TO GET A CROWD People Who Mlad Their Owi Bmslaess Flmd Pleat? to Bmtt Ia. The old German and his son had been walking up and down the sidemalk for the last half hour. With eyes glued to the ground, they poked ground In the grass with sticks and finally they started to parade around the vacant lot, all the time eagerly searching for something. Jimmy Sullivan had breathlessly matched them for the last ten minutes. He had just finished reading "Silent Sanders, King of the Sleuths," and It was evident to hi 10. year-old brain that these tin mysterious persons were searching for valuable paper or diamonds. "What yer look In' for?'1 the boy Inquired. "Noddlngs," replied the German, nerv ously. "Nefer mind us." This settled things in the lad's mind. It was surely some terrible secret or they would have told him. Just then Bob Keb bon and some others of the "gang' strolled by and Jimmy excitedly set forth his conclusions to seven awed youngsters They mere probably looking at a real murderer! "What yer huntln,' mister?" asked Keb' bon. boldly. The Teuton muttered to himself and glared at the youth. The boys exchanged significant glances and crowded around while the man and his son kept up their i poking snd tramping. Jimmy Sullivan ran home and told his mother snd big brother about the mysteri ous stranger. Eagerly they hurried out and watched tne cromd. Mr. Johnson, across the street, looked out to see what was the matter and Mrs. Dawson ran downstairs to find out mho waa hurt. Grad ually a growing throng sssembled around the vacant lot. "A man lost a hundred dollars!" volun teered a little girl. There' two men fighting In there"' cried a bey. "A man dropped doed In the lot!" shouted a youngster In the cigar store door. A doxen i.angers-on ran out of the shop toward the rapidly enlarging crowd, and people from other stores, mho sew there ranlng. followed. Two poUcemen mho were passing on a street Car noticed the ex citement and jumped off the train. With drawn clubs they dashed up to the scene and pushed through the cromd. "What's the matter hi-rer' shouted one. The Oerman looked up at them In mild surprise. "Noddlngs the matter." he replied, stol idly. "Pees people are crasy. Pey bodder tne So much I cannot de my work." "An' what might voui work be?" asked the bluer! "Me und tuy kiu hunt for mustueome wnd sell m to restaurant." responded the Teuton Oilcago Kerord-Herald.

And It Isn't all Lw Field's, either, for Phyllis Rankin and oihers In the company get plenty of room on the stage, and then at times the stage Is so crowded milh singing and dancing chorus girls. In hriph'.. hvautlful costumes that hardly another could be put on. Glen McDonough Is a past master St stringing together nonsense and travesty, and Victor Herbert has applied music to McPonough's production In a way thit is seriously com ical. Try to Imagine something more ridiculous than a tenor ari: exploiting the virtues of a painkiller, suv.g by a street fnkir in Imitation of Caruso, mith a mell drilled chorus coming on the refrain of 'Shake It." This Indicates the spirit in which the thing is cisscelved. Julian Mitch ell has easily surpassed his former efforts In staging the piece, for he ha provided a kaleidoscopic maze of colorings in cos tumes, settings and lights, that blend and melt together and t'ado away and form new pictures, harmonious, soft and pleasing, or striking the eye and stunning the sense by their brilliancy. The chorus movements vary from the languorous malt to the quickstep for the jig, mith an Indian dance that Is one of the real gems of the even ing. 'A song. "A Little Class of One," proved the whistling hit of the evening, and wa thoroughly enjoyed by the marblers In the gallery as mell as those downstair mhos decorum could not be broken Into a pucker. Other high spots are numerous along the way from first to lost, and alto gether, If nny tault Is to be found with It. there ia loo much of It. Mr. Field himself Is 'vastly different from an) thing he has hitherto shown us In the way of German caricature. In this he Is a big boy, and enters Into It with boyish xest. He la comical In a way that no other dialect cemedlun ha attained. His forte 1 not buffoonei-y, and the little clowning he does Is brought about in a way that makes it part of hi character. He fit himself to the possible fun of a given situation and makes the most of his opportunities with out appearing to strain at any time. And he ha learned the valuable Uson of know ing how much of himself to present with out giving more than la gooO for his au dience. He takes part In one little topical song and for the rest contenU himself mith jokes delivered as only he can lellver them. Phyllis Rankin leads the other half of the show, which Is the greater half by far, In a may that is charming. She has poise and self-command, and doesn't overlook a chance. Her songs are mell ung, her lines are well spoken and her little dances are gracefully executed. She and Mr. Daven port together established "A Little Class for One" in the estimation of their hear ers. Miss Hopkins, Miss Snyder and Miss Poherty also lead choruses most effec tively. Miss Hopkins has a particularly pleasing voice snd presence. Miss Whltty has one of those "guy" parte that are so easily overdone, but she manages It with much taste and discretion, getting just the right effect. Harry Fisher as Baron Sparta, Jules Steger as Dr. Blots, William Burres as Dr. Popoff, Dentnun Maley a -the duke of Toxen and Harry Davenport as Prince George contribute well conceived comedy character to the general good of the mhole. Mr. Davenport' ong to an absinthe frappe Is accompanied by a realistic exhibition of the effect of a continued application of the drink to a properly developed "package"; only, If current accounts are accurate, one seldom sees things so pleasant as thoKe that beckoned him on and ever eluded his grasp. The Boyd wus filled to Its capacity Inst night by an audience that enjoyed every moment of the long shorn'. "The Way of the Transgressor" al the Km sr. A realistic play of the kind that bear home a moral to any who wish to apply It, opened an engagement at the Krug last night and was enjoyed greatly by those mho attended. "The Way of the Trans gressor" explains Its action by Its title snd runs true to t lie mark. The may of the wicked Is surely made hard, but the repentant ones are forgiven and the wrongs made right at the end. Some mell, trained dogs take an active part in the proceed ings and show how cleverly good dogs can be trained. The company and piece remain the rest of the week mith the customary matinee on Saturday afternoon. DEESTRICKT SKULE REVIVED Pleaslns Kntertalnmen t tilveu at llnnseoiu Park Methodist rhnrrb. An old-fashioned "rteesfrickt skule mas depleted by about twenty-five men and women of the Hanscom Park Methodist Episcopal congregation before a gathering which thoroughly fllld tho church audltn rlum last night.

NEW ELEVATOR IS LOCATED Fye-tfbnride?-rcwlT Plant "Will Sttnd on Etjcknej'i TerminalB. CONTRACT SIGNED WITH GRLAT WESTERN (parity ( Sen Concern Will He One Million Bmskeln Two RallreaS Asljnst Their Traekeae !)lJerenc-ea. A contract was sisnied in umaha Thurs day evenlnp by the Chicago Great Western snd the Nye-Schneider-Foier Klevator company whereby the latter company Is to construct a l.nOn.ooo bushel elevator onx the grain terminal tracks near the Independent elevator nom- in eperalion. . This deal has been hanging lire for some time, a m alt ing the decision of the case in the federal court brought by the Great Western against the Vnion Pacific to compel thai road to furnish pood connection mith ihv terminal companies tracks. President A. R. Stickney, vice president. L. 8. Cass and General Counsel Frank It. Kellogg of the Gnat Western were in the city in attendance on that case this week. Wednesday, after the others, S. C. Stick ney, vice president and general manager of the road, arrived In Omaha, as did slso R. B. Schneider. Frank Fomier and Ray Nye and a conference ws held. tsalcable Settlement Made. The case against the Vnion Pacific mas settled out of ceurt Wednesday after a long conference in the federal building be tween the efflcers of the Great Western and General Manager Mohler and John N. Raldmin, solicitor for the Union Pacific, whereby the Great Western secured the track concessions asked. When this mat ter mas settled u ma only a short time before the grain company and the railroad company came to terms. The Nye-Schneider-Fomier company omns about seventy-five elevators in Nebraska, mostly on the Xorthm-estern road, and the establishment of terminals In tl.U city is a greul advantage to the Omaha G:iiu exchange. A man mho Is on the inside of the deal said: "The new elevattor company is under no obligations to any road and mill conic to Omaha mith a free lance, prepared to do business with any road und all grain con cerns.'' BOY STARTS ON A LONG TRIP Uae Only Fifty Cents to Carry Hint from Omaha to Rairltns, Wyoming. Halpli Hunter, aged 11 yeirs, mua picked up at the Vnion depot late last night by Special Officer Simpson and sent to ths po lice station. The lad was seen manderlng aimlessly about the depot and on being questioned said he came from Cedar Rap Ida, Ia. Slight and allin even for his age. the little fellom- wa selfrellant and manly, causing much amusement at the station by hi grown-up talk. He said his parents are dead and he had been making his home with hi grandparent until tmo weeks ago, m-hen he m-ent to Rockwell City to visit sn uncle. He then took It Into his head to visit a brother at Rawlins, Wyo., and started out alone. Asked If he always had money enough for fare, he promptly re plied: "O, I don't need any money for that. I never paid any railroad faro in all my life." He pulled Out a time card and showed the policemen where Rawlins is located and the route he has mapped out for him self. All the money he had m-a 50 cents, and thi he turned over to Desk Sergeant Marshall for safe keeping until morning, asking to be called In time so he can start out at 8 o'clock. Ho was then led upstairs to the matron's department and put to bed. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS K. P. Peck has returned from 1'hlcac.o. John Keith, ranchman, from Smid-tiand. Is in the city.

They are urged to send In their petitions promptly and also to send personal letters to their congressmen urging the Importance of the measure. Mrs. George Payne was the speaker' before the Omaha Circle ef Met here Wednesday afternoon, her subject being "The Art of Story Telling." Mrs. Fsyne. who la most gifted In thin accomplishment herself, assured the women that a love ef children and an interest In those things thst concern them Is the chief essential of the successful story teller. "Anyone can tell good stories If they mill Just try," she said. She discouraged the practise of mak ing up stories for children, unless one Is really gifted, and advised the average mother to read mell and reread the great m-orld stories and then tell them to their children. The ancient myths and much that Is ordinarily counted too heavy and too old for young children she recom mended, hut never the aimless stories. "Mother Goose" snd some of the, fairy sto ries she counted among those that all ehlldren should have. She objected strongly to pointing a moral ef a story, advising that if a lecture Is to be given It be named such. Asking the wemen not to misunderstand her, she cesdemned the majority of Bible stories arrange for children. There Is so much In these that children do riot understand, and that scarcely tend to convince them that the Father Is a god ef love. A a substitute for these stories she advised mothese te study their Bibles; study out the things that they with their chlldrea to know, and tell them to their children themselves, lb cautioned women against letting ehlldren read too many books, and recommended three or four good books a year, to be read snd reread, ret her than access te the library and the privilege of reading a great deal, even though It be good literature.
