It allows him a few mo menta of that Intenae, concentrated effort (or which he ha made a name, and give bin). in opportunity for the ' full play ot his unquestioned command of Illustrative Ctteranc. In these few moments he rises to a triumph as genuine and as sincere as was vor attained. It comes at the close f tha aacond act, when the nameless mu sician denounces the selfish man of mil lions. It la not cheap melodramatic clap trap nor customary stage artifice that brings this situation to the front. The climax la reached as the result of a log ical.

And. to his credit, like Helmar. he has refused to advertise his eccentricities to secure attention to his art. He may not be able to command suc cess, but he destrves It. The story told in "The Magic Melody" Is a good one, and aside from certain pal pable crudities, it works out well for tiic uses to which It Is put. Its "heart Interest" Is strong, and .its human side Is genuine. In the role of the young musician, lighting bis way In the world, Mr. Whiteside adds a certain comedy element to the situations, world, or Its people, being uttered In a his sardonic comment on some ways of the genial, good nutured way.. The other char acters are well drawn, and uro In excep tionally good hands so fur as being acted goes. In fact, the company is an uncom monly well selected organisation and the play Is given as the star would have It, in a manner thoroughly artistic. "Von Yonaon" at the Km. This never-falling well sprit's or laughter poured forth its stream of fun at the Krug last night, to the intense amusement of a good-sized audience. The old piece Is kept up-to-date as regards specialties, and la in tho hands of people who play It with a test. It still tells the story of .a young man from Sweden and some of the diffi culties he encountered in getting a start in America; how he was the instrument through which a villain was thwarted, and how, by his native manhood, he Anally won. Oeorge C. Thompson Is the Ton Yon- son of the present cast, with a good dia lect and a comic specialty. Others of the company contribute to this, and the "Lum berman's quartet" is an enjoyable fcaturs. suss vys AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Titled Euclisbmaa Pays Tiiit sf Inptctioa to the Fsckioc Eeniei. COMMENTS FAVORABLY ON CONDITION ton tractors for City Hall Sign Ip and Dora meat Will Be lteady to Sabmlt to toouell at Its Nest Meeting;. Rt. Hon. Sir Walter Foster of the British Housa of Lords wss a South Omaha visitor yesterday. He arrived In Omaha Wednes day evening and yesterday visited three ou of the four packing plants. He was accom panied by a government chemist by the name of Kldner. He visited the Swift com pany's plant first, and It Is understood that he Is being entertained by the Swifts while here. He asked to be shown over the plant. He visited all departments and his companion took copious notes. Manager Edwards accompanied him and went every where. He asked numerous questions of tho employes and especially questioned the government Inspectors as to their duties. He appeared much Interested In all de partments of tha packing: business. From Swift's plant he. In company with Mr. Ed wards, visited Cudahy's plant. After pass ing through all the departments there Ar mour's was given an exhaustive visit. The visit of the Englishman sppears to be offi cial in one sense. It appears that he Is gathering Information to be used In com parison with the English slaughtering ami packing regulations. The knowledge he may have gained In the American plants may be the suggestion of some advanced efficiency in the English code. He ex pressed general satisfaction over conditions as he found them In all the plants. The managers of the packing plants professed not to know that his business In South Otnaha at this time hid any special sig nificance, other than the seeking of Infor catlon. On this point. Sir Foster let fall no satisfactory hint. ""My Hall Contract Sl.rxi. The city clerk yesterday executed the contract for the city hall with McDonald & Bock. The bond furnished by the con tractors has not yet been deposited with the clerk. It will he forthcoming before the meeting of the council Monday night. As soon as the action of the clerk and mayor is approved by the council the work on the hall may be commenced. Tho limit for completing the building Is July 15, 190T.

University of Chicago. Mrs. Sarah Piatt Iecker, president of the General Federa tion. Is the guest of the convention. Mrs. Ella W. Teattle, formerly president of the Omaha Woman's club, made the prin cipal address of the literature session Wednesdsy. her subject being "The Sunday School Library." 8he said: No child who Is tn become a person of taste and a lover of truth should be al lowed to roam unguarded through the maudlin monMrosltles of the poorer sort of Sunday school libraries. The poverty stricken style of the grester part of the books to b fo'ind In the Sunday school 11 hraries, the fictitious swards bestowed upon virtue, and, above all, the misrepresenta tions of life are distinctly injurious. Bvery one of us must be aware of the cruelty of keeping children upon peptonlred milk exclusively after their teeth are cut and when their bodies are growing. We flliottld know what to expect rlcketty. petulsnt children nulte unfit to hold their places In the vigorous world. Put we com mit an equally great offense If we feed thf Intellect of our developing young peo ple upon what may be termed "peptonized'' literature. It Is absurd, too, to try to Veep the knowledge of sin and sorrow from them. They must know the true story of the battles if they would learn the significance of victory. Let them have the laughter and the tears, the cries' of vtctory and defeat, snd let them become sware of the splendor of literature and the struggle if life. They feel It In s mystical way rrom the first and they love the dragon slayer, but what Is the poetry of their early youth must become the noble reallem if their fuller understanding. frs. J. L.

"Conlston." by Win ston Churchill, was the book of the morn ing and Instead of the current events Mrs. H. R.

Hitchcock resigned the, secretaryship and Mrs. John VI. McDonald was elected In her place. The usual luncheon followed. Mrs. W. T. Brown, chairman of the litera ture committee of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, has the following to say of some of the club programs and out lines of study: In looking over the outlines of study of a great many clubs, the committee has heen obliged to confess that, while sin cerity in the keynote of the programs, many show lack of sequence, and many more seem to us to be too miscellaneous to effect the best results. Having received many Inquiries for study outlines, also for Information on topics which often seem without much value, ex cept for the discipline of research, the committee 1ms thought It advisable to pre sent some subjects which we hope may be helpful to those clubs which are not already provided. We have prepared four programs which will be distributed, the subjects being "The Development of the Modern Novel." "Study of I'nlted States History." "The Modern Drama." and "The Women of the Re naismmce and of the Salon." the last subject being chosen with especial ref erence to younger women's clubs a need suggested by our president, Mrs. Decker. Dundee Woman's club held its regular fortnightly meeting Wednesday at the home of Mrs. E. R. Hume, The study hour was devoted to the Norman period In English history, the club having taken up the Bay View reading course for this year. Mrs. F. R. Elisoi will entertain the next meeting of the club. TWENTIETH CENTURY MARVELS Pref. Patty I.ectares on Rsdiam, Wireless Telegraphy and Liquid Air. An Interesting lecture, accompanied with equally Interesting demonstrations, wss given Thursday evening at Cre'.ghton university-auditorium by Prof. W. B. Patty, on the subjects of "Wireless Telegraphy, RaiV'im and Liquid Air." The lecture was given before a large audience under the auspices of the Crelghton University Ath letic association. Prof. Patty adds to his qualities as a sci entist that of an orator and the faculty of divesting his talk of verbose scientific technicality and at once puts himself on the best terms with his audience. His first experiments were with wireless teleg raphy, which he Illustrated with a com plete set of sending and receiving appa ratus. He showed that the principle lay wholly In the transmission of ether waves to and from Instruments similarly attuned. He believed that the time would come when wires would be relegated to the scrap heap and that the wireless system would be the only means of tha transmission of electrical energy for communication, light and pow-er. Prof. Patty had with him six tubes of radium. The lecture room being dark ened for the purpose, he gave several highly Interesting experiments with It, par ticularly as regards its peculiar qualities in disseminating light rays as well as recuperating itself without any apparent loss of energy. He believed that the capa bilities of radium were Illimitable as an energy, both as a curative of cancer, tu berculosis and other diseases, but It pres ent applicability as a curative agent was In Its Infancy, as It would be likely to de stroy ths llfs of ths victim before It would get tn Its work on ths bacteria It waa Intended to destroy. His liquid sir experiments were numerous and replete with Interest, and were similar to those demonstrated In sll liquid air ex periments. D. A. R.
