POLICE WORK CLEVER RUSE Catch Lid Lifters Off Their Gnard and Arrest Several of Them. Despairing of successfully providing pa trons with refreshments in anything like the regular way without molestation on the part of the vigilant police on the Sab bath day because of the "lid" restrictions, a few saloon keepers are scratching their heads for Ingenious methods of evading the law and lose none of the profits from the business. The latest is the "club" Idea. Such a place was unearthed by the police Sunday and a large haul of prisoners and wet goods waa made from SH South Fif teenth street, where the Magnolia club was found to be holding forth under the proprietorship of E. J. Callahan. Sergeant Hayes, with Officers McCarthy and Wool drldge, climbed the stairs to the second floor Sunday forenoon and found no one there but Callahan. There was a goodly quantity of beer and whisky there with hlm. Callahan showed the officers a gov ernment license, but It was the one he held for his place at Thirteenth and Harney streets. The officers pretended not to no tice this discrepancy and went away ap parently satisfied the place was legal. But It was only a ruse on their part. In the afternoon they returned and did the "rush act," surprising a room full of men In the midst of their revels. They were taken to the station and locked up as In mates of a disorderly house. Among them was none other than the distinguished Gen eral Scott, reincarnated. Captain Dunn had Callahan booked as a keeper of a disor derly house. Eleven cases of beer and a suit case full of whisky bottles were also secured. This was the only Indication the police found of violation of the Sunday closing law during the day, and beyond the Mag nolia club capture It was a day of quiet with the department. Not an Inebriate was arrested. H. C. Harms, who runs a saloon at 2002 Vinton street, took the lid off Sunday long enough to get arrested. He was aken to the station, along with a large quantity of what Is supposed to be bottled beer. He was released upon putting up a cosh bond for his appearnnce Monday In police court to answer the charge of selling liquor on Sunday, "Another rroblem to solve has been caused by breaking the shackles of 4.000,(V slaves In the grave of secession, as thlB question has certainly not been solved. The tendencies of political bodies are to hedge nnd backstep, but It Is the duty of the church to stand for the white man, the black man, the yellow man or any man of any color.

D. Clem Deaver, general agent of the landseekers' Information bureau of the Bur lington road, has returned from an ex tensive trip to the Big Horn Basin country. He made a trip ever the Burlington's new line to Worland and Basin. "Many peopln of that section of the coun try were trying to buy feeding steers, but there were none, to be had," said Mr. Deaver. "This looks as though cattle would be higher this spring. "The promoters around Worland have about 17,000 acres of Irrigated land ready for settlement under the Carey act, which Is little understood, and at the same time one of the most liberal. This provides that this may be entered at GO cents an acre from the state, and then the water right may be secured from the Irrigation com pany. Proof may be made In six months. In getting the water right settlers must pay from one-sixth to one-fourth down and can get as long tlm. aa they want for the re mainder. "A seed farm has been established at Worland. The new company bought 160 acres of land and the citizens of the town gave them forty acres. The contract was let while I was there for 130 acres to be plowed to be put Into pure-bred seeds. Prof. Buffum of the Agricultural college of Wyoming Is a director of the company. Worland won this prise away from numer ous competing towns "The Big Horn County Canal company near Basin has 26.000 acres ready for settlers. Wiley has about 8,000 acres ready this spring and will have 00,000 ready by next spring. Generally speaking, the fawners In that section of the country are prosperous and doing extremely well. Forty settlers on the Wiley lands marketed more than $50,000 worth of grain last year, besides raising considerable grain and other prod ucts.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO JONES" A DELIGHT Tight Wire Performers at Orphean Astonish prctators by Their Sensational Stnnt. and Active, Easy Ways, George II. Broadhursfs evergreen farce, "What Happened to Jones," Is being offered splitting complications, and the ludicrous conditions of this play lead to some side splitting complication, and the ludicrous situations never fall to excite mirth. It Is simply laugh-provoking, and was designed as such. It Is well handled by the Wood ward Stock company. Miss Tettes, as the Yasser girl who has picked up some slang, and has also learned that there is a phase of life outside that of the family of a col lege professor. Is a revelation even to those who have expected much rf her. She wears the role as a well fitting garment and makes Cissy a most enjoyable young miss. Just one of the girls everybody likes to know. Mr. Morrison, In the part of Jones, the hymnbonk agent who selis playing cards on the side and who Is somewhat of a sport as well. Is playing the part with the vim and vigor he put Into It last winter, when he made It such a popular hit. Mr. Schofield Is dolne; the Ebeneser Goodly port with unction, and John Davles Is mak ing the bishop from Ballarat live as he never did hofore In Omaha. Miss Martin, as the Scandinavian servant. Is dolrur a lit tle dialect stunt that equals her makeup, and Miss Hudson Is playing the role of a silly old maid as If she liked It. Miss Edith Spencer, who Joined the company last week. Is making Mrs. Goodly a notable addition to the cast. The others are well situated and the piece Is sent along Its Journey with promptness and dlsnnteh, so necessary In a farce. It was uproariously laughed at yes terday and probably will be the rest of the week. Vaudeville at the Orphenm. Japanese tight wire performers, who have hitherto been accorded the palm for great est cleverness In such acts, are given their quietus most positively and unhesitatingly In the marvelous work of the four Harveys, who are among the big attractions In the Orpheum bill for this week. The four members of the troupe who do the wire work appear to be entirely as much at home on the thin steel ropes as on the floor of the stage, and, Indeed, most of their work would win applause even If done on the floor Instead of on the wire. They dance, cake walk, and perform acrobatlo stunts that are excellent by themselves, but become positively unusual when done on the tight wire. One noticeable feature Is the perfect easo and sprlghtllness with which they un dertake and accomplish difficult acts, thus communicating the same feeling to the nervous persons In the crowd. The fear of Injury to some performer Is always one of the objectionable things that go with such acts, and this Is usually enhanced purposely In many little ways by the per former to Impress the onlooker with the dif ficulty and danger, whether there Is much or little, that goes with his work. Another act, which comes somewhat In the same line and which waa received with unbounded applause, was the comic bar act and burlesque wrestling match of Marzelo and Mlllay. The climax of their funny work la reached in the "wrestling match," in which they go through all sorts of plays more or less true to the actual contest. but always very much like It. The people ore kept In constant laughter by the efforts to secure the necessary "hold" to throw one another, and by the side antics. Howard and Howard have a messenger boy and Thespian act In which they do some singing, but In which the greatest entertainment Is derived from the work of the messenger boy. He Is not only funny In his psrt of the team work, but is good at Imitating some well known character actors. Other singers are the threo "Troubadore" and Edgar Atehlson-Ely. All of them do well enough to be called back for two or three encores. Frank Marckley Introduces some clnsslc banjo music as a change from rag time, with very good success, and Alice Davenport and company pronounce many truths In an emotional sketch not at all bad. The moving pictures are good, the whole show being very satis factory. "Holty Tolty" at the Krnsr. "Holty Tolty," aa presented twice yester day In the Krug theater, Is an cntertaln- jnent that serves to while away a few hours. The program pronounces It a "giddy little skit on things dramatic and other wise," and the such It Is. There Is the barest suggestion of a story, and In thi main It Is a bunch of specialties and songs, some of which stirred the risibilities of those in the Krug yesterday. In the piece are three clever comedians of the knock about German type, Emll Heusel, Nat Ber nard and Harry Kooper sustaining this part of the entertainment with considerable satisfaction. In one of their specialties they were recalled repeatedly. While there Is considerable fun In "Holty Tolty," tho musical end of the piece is not very strong. J. L. McClure and Zlllah Harris give a clever operatic burlesque. Albert Livings ton and Hasel Edna are also seen In the front row. "Hoity Tolty" will close the Omaha engagement this evening.
