This Is What they gain because Harriman sold tha Hill stocks before the collapse came. The first table, however, loses sight of the fact that If all the Hill stocks had been lield they would have had "rights" to sub scribe to new Issues. Had all these right been sold they might possibly have brought $7,000,000 to $10,000,000. More likely, however, n attempt to sell them would have de moralised the whole market for these "rights." Bo that It seems fair to say that because these Hill stocks were sold at tha time they were the Union Paciflo stockholders have gained about $43,000,000. Now all this $139,000,000 had been In vested In stocks which yielded to the Union Pacific less than I per cent on their market value. When the cash was received some thing had to be done with it. It could 'not lay idle. Bo It was Invested In other Stocks which since the. Investment were tnada have shewn a depreciation In market : value.

"THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND ME" IS GOOD Play gtaa-ed vrUh Care by Mr. Hart- for aad Members of C'ompaay Arqalt Themaelvea with Mack' Credit. When the Burwood theater was opened In 1906 "'The Girl I Left Behind Me" was chosen for the bill, and was given such a greeting as seemed to be the acme of local enthusiasm. Yet If the ghost of the audi ence thaKwItnessed the first Sunday night's performance In the theater had been pres ent last night It would have slunk away, for It was more than beaten fairly. An other singular coincidence was that the house was opened in August, when warm weather Is naturally expected, but It was no warmer on the first night than It was last night It was Just a little difficult for some of the regulars to convince them selves that It was not August, 1905, In stead of March, 1907. Two of the biggest audiences of the season watched the per formances, and were well rewarded, for the fine play was appropriately presented. Mr. Hartford had arranged for a complete setting, and has called Into service a big detachment of the Omaha Guards, who do yeomen service as . dismounted cavalry. This, with the big cast, fills the stage with people, and the scenes are moat animated from the first Mr. Morrison acquits himself as usual in the role of Lieutenant Hawksworth, play ing the part with a straightforward ear nestness that brings It Into high relief. Many present last night could not help comparing Mr. Hartford's work as Lieu tenant Parlow with that of Mr. Owen, who was In the first cast, and It Is praise enough to say that Mr. Hartford doesn't suffer by the comparison. He plays the part with Intensity and Intelligent expres sion. Mr. Todd loses his identity In that of John Ladru, Scarbrow, the educated leader of the mutinous Blackfeet, and makes a good Indian. Mr. Davles and Mr. Phlnney as General Kennlon and Major Burleigh are good, and Mr. Phelps shows t f ssa. s4 rK The above figure, $20,146,110. does not wholly give the right Idea as the big de- w" Private Jones.

While Morrlsey was busy placing himself in command Patrol man Cullen was summoned and the Imita tion plain clothes man was locked up for Impersonating an officer. Captain Dunn relieved him of his star and placed him in a cell. He had recovered from his foolish streak by Monday morning, however, and was released In police court.

Green worked for Joseph Dtnusso, Twelfth and Douglas streets, and was sent to ths bank for change for a $100 bill Saturday. Whan he returned ha was short $30, which he said he had lost on the way back.

Of course we phoued for doctor ho. S. He came over and looked her over and said that be could not do any thing more for her. that we had better take her to some eye specialist, since It was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and he said the eye sight was gone, but that he could help it. W e thought we would try doctor No. S. Well, that proved the same, only he charged S10 more than doctor No. 4. We. were nearly discouraged. I saw one of the Cuticura advertisements in ' the paper and thought we would try the Cuticura Treatment, so I went and purchased a set of Cuticura Remedies, which cost me SI, and in three days our daughter, who had been sick about eight months, showed great Improve ment, and in one week all sores had dis appeared. Of course it oould not re store the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura in time I am confident that it would have saved the eye.

Whllo politeness and homage to beauty emands that "ladles should be first," Charles A. Pusey must be given first men tion because of his lofty position as Bompopka, the mighty king, who Is fully equal to the double task of overcoming the handicap of comparison with former Bompopkas and "making good" by him self. He has all the attributes of the funny, awkward, musical comedy ruler. nd he had but to appear on the stage and the audience was ready to laugh when he opened his mouth.

The pretty and bewitching "Trinket." the long lease wife of the king, was art Omaha girl, Margaret Woods, who studied for the stage in this city. The part Is a most im portant one and was assumed by her most charmingly. She was formerly one of the court ladle.," but the withdrawal of Bernlce Baden from the part of Trinket gave an opportunity for making use of her talents. Her voice Is not strong, but other wise she Is most acceptable In the part. She waa presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Omaha friend. Frank Woods, already mentioned, Is her husband. and he Is also an Omaha product, having been employed In the Board of Trade build Ing and an usher at the Boyd before going on the stage.
