Llnvd Cnrleton Tiger Ll!y Margaret Gordon Maud Adama did two things last night that are really notable: She got the aeat holders to the theater In time to see the curtain go up on the first scene, and It went up on time; and she held them after the fall of the last curtain, applauding and calling for a repetition of the beautiful picture. Only those who are familiar with Omaha theater manners can thoroughly ap preciate Just what a tribute to Miss Adams these two simple, things constitute. Tammas Haggart wasna the only humor ist In the Barrle family; the genial James is something of a Jester himself, and we often wonder If he Is really In earnest or merely spoofing, and do not know whether to laugh or to soberly consider what he has set before us. "Peter Pan" It In a ense a projection of another boy of Barrle-s; the lato Thomas Sandys, Esq., tised to lead something of a hand himself through the purlieus of Thrums and Corp and Grizel and Elspeth were escorted through a series of adventures much like those of Peter and Wendy and Jack and Michael and the others. And we knew for the most part Barrle was laughing at us then through the eyes of Sentimental Tommy, and later he poked fun at his British brethren, with a sly warning to his . American cousins In "Little Mary," and now In "Peter Pan" what Is he driving att Dellshtfol, Droll and Mystifying. "Peter Pan" Is not one thing nor another; It Is but part a play and part an allegory, and something of burlesque. But taken as It Is offered It Is a bit of delightful enter i talnment; quaintly humorous, verging here and there on the pathetic, but drawing back In time to save the situation and offering something absurd Immediately the sober I thought seems arrested. As the story of a toy who didn't want to grow up It offers a .realization of the delights he longed for; j wings, and fairies, pirates, Indians, wild 'animals and all sorts of adventures, with Peter ever uppermost, till he Anally shouts In his triumph that he Is the most wonder ful boy that ever lived. But Peter's companions all long for the another they have missed, and Captain Peter himself feels the need of one; even Bmee, the pirate, wanted a mother, and the -reat story of boyhood Is made complete ' In this common touch. It's all very well to How to Get Rid of Fat A Remarkable Discovery That Con lletluce Fat Harmlessly at the I la to of a Pound a Day. A Trial Bos Sent Tree. A quick, harmless reducer of fat has come Into popular use which far eclipses any method or treatment heretofore used. Starvation diets break down the health almost Invariably, as Is commonly wlt nesaed among many former fat folks who have tried to starve their fat away. Dangerous drugs and mineral acids can row be jut on the shelf. You Eat Besfo XJka Ton Would Trait or ' Candy. In their stead,' many physicians are ow prescribing Rengo, which among ther things contains the extracts of koine, tropical fruits, and which has a re tnarkable faculty not only of reducing he fat quickly and In a natural way, ut also makes the nerves strong, dlges Bon vigorous and muscles more brawny, f-avlng what once was a weak, blubbery, ' loated victim of fat, a normal, vigorous, iiuncular person. Rengo has the faculty of compelling krvper assimilation, of food and driving iff the surplus abnormal tissue present. Thus, no tiresome exercises are neces tary and there is no Interference wltU IJnVs dally labors. . Rengo la very pleasant to take, and It si chewed like candy. It attacks abnor kial tissue with unerring accuracy, and fount a gradual, harmless but effective reduction In weight, and without leaving wrinkles which are nearly always present after taking drugs and other dangerous materials commonly called "anti-fats." There is only one company in the Unit ed States making this remedy and that Is the Rengo Company at Detroit. Mich. For some time they have made It a prac tice of sending out trial boxes of this re markable treatment to anyone who sends them their name and address. We recommend that any one suffering from excess fat, prove to his or her own satisfaction what this powerful product can do, and Just send for a box on trial, i Address The Rengo Co. rra Rango Coupon Rengo Company, 1657 Ret go Bldg., Detroit Mich. Bend me st once a free trial packivo of Rengo, the fat -reducer In - plain wrapper, with, proofs, etc I ' - v w a if mm range far and high, but when evening comes and sport begins to weary. It's nice to have a kind, loving mother to come home to. If the production have another moral. It la not easily discerned. As far as the boys locally are concerned, Nebraska's re cent legislature has ordained that their boyhood shall Inst until the age of It Is attained; by that time they will be well past the Peter Pan age, and It la likely that they will then see the necessity of at last growing up. The humor of the play Is Barrio's, gentle and kindly at all times, laughing and occasionally rollicking, but never acrid. Mnnd Adams as a Roy Miss Adams Is a charming boy; for many months she has been the target for more adulation than many stars receive In a lifetime. Her .Peter Pan has almost at tained the station of a national Institution, and has been praised even beyond her Lady Babble. Her picture of the boy who ran away from his mother and Joined the Lost Boys because he did not want to rrow up Is a very taking one, with Just a note of pathos In It; especially his renunciation of Wendy, because to go with her entailed getting old; he could feel his newer nature stirring within him, the Impulse to mate crowding the Impulse for mother, and yet he went to his home In the tree tops In order to escape the Inevitable. His Joypus crow and his unaffected self-exaltatlon were part of a natural boy. In fact,- Miss Adams merely gives us a boy, a trifle ab normal, maybe but all of Barrie s boys are abnormal one that we can love, and does It with the same unaffected devotion to the details of her art that has made her unapproachable In certain ways. Production Wonderfully Effective. The whole production Is good. , It Is won derfully staged, offering the very acme of realism In some of its pictures; the com pany enters with seal and understanding on the interpretation of " the . author's thought and all the wonders of the story as told later by . Wendy, are set forth In detail and exactitude, to the Intense delight of all. Belief In fairies Is asseverated by the audience in ample season and with suf ficient energy to save Tinker Bell's life from the effect of Hook's poison, and Peter single handed and alone tosses Smee over the side of the ship and later dispatches Hook at the end of a desperate conflict and flings him to the waiting crocodile. Even little Michael vanquishes a pirate bigger than his papa, and the most Imaginative youngster would have to think long and hard to Invent some feat these did not achieve. And . the final scene, Peter standing In the doorway of his little home In the tree-trip, waving fare well to the audience, while all about him are the fairies, flitting hither and yon, or lighting up their homes. Is one that fairly deserves to be called beautiful. Children Enjoy the Show. It was a gathering of children that filled the Boyd theater last night as It has not been filled before this season; some of them bore on their heads the snow cf more than seventy winters, and others had but lately begun to tread the way of life; but all enjoyed the tale of "Peter Pan," and the enthuBlastlo endorsement of Its progress found vent at the close of each act, to swell into a genuine ovation at the van quishing of Hook and his piratical crew. It was kept up until Miss Adams declined to respond further. Her pleasure was plainly apparent In her face, but the show had to go on. FEDERAL COURTJN THE FALL Important Term Will Be Held In Omalia Fourth Monday In September. United Statea Marshal Warner and Dep uty Marshal Nlckerson returned Saturday morning from Lincoln, where they have been assisting In the Lincoln term of the federal courts. The court adjourned for the term late Friday night. The next term of the federal .courts for the Lincoln district will be held the fourth Monday In October. An Important term of the federal courts will convene In Omaha the fourth Monday In September, when a grand Jury will bo summoned to take cognizance of such coses as have originated In the northern Nebraska district since February 27. Grand Jnrte will be empanelled only - at . Omaha and Lincoln.' Short terms of the federal courts win be held at Chodron the second Monday In September and at Norfolk the third Mon day In September. Several of the . minor civil land cases wfll be tried during these terms at Chadron and Norfolk on account of these cities twlny nearer the scene of the alleged offenses. Owing to the lack of funds available for Jury purposes, the appropriation for the current year being exhausted, there will not be any more Jury trials at Omaha until the new appropriation la available after July 1. This will necessitate the delay of Jury trials at Omaha In the federal courts until the September term. American Drtnklna Habits. "There was a time, especially In the southwest, when the whisky decanter had a prominent place on every sideboard not so nowl Instead, bottled beer Is rtnred lit the refrigerators of many residences." ' This remark was made recently by an official of the Internal Revenue Bureau In speaking of the large Increase In the use of bottled beer. Times have changed Indeed. Within the memory of many a man now living, po farmer, however moral or religious, thought of sending a harvesting crew into the fields without a Jug of whisky; and, even on the sideboards of the clergy one could usually find a nip of Rye or Bourbon. Now it Is all different; although prohibi tion agitators still hold forth In futile ef fort, as theJk did In the days of Hero dotus and Tacitus, tha real temperance movement Is going along quite Indepen dently of them. The truth Is that In the stress and strain of. modern life, the human system, while greatly benefited by the moderate use of mildly stimulating beverages, cannot cope with the evil effects of strong drink as It could In the days when men were more rugged and had more leisure. This Is, no doubt, one of the main causes of the substitution of bottled beers for stronger drinks, and with ths advent of Luxus, the new, light beer brewed and bot tled In Omaha by the Fred Krug Brewing Company, "Exponents of the Fine Art of brewing," it appepars that at last we havs an Ideal drink for the home. Luxus Is pure In a sense beyond the comprehension or understanding of ths average brewer; and, being a light, clear beer. It may be Indulged In quite freely without the slightest adverse effects. Luxus is gently stimulating, Inducing a healthy activity of all functions of the body and Is greatly appreciated by Nature as an assistant In restoring energy, quick ening the Jaded spirits, quieting tired nerves and bringing about a delightful sense of physical harmony and good cheer. oath Dakota Banks Consolidate. HURON, S. D, May IS. (Special.) Negotiations have been consummated whereby ths Standard Savings-bank, one of Huron's oldest financial Institutions, Is merged with ths Bank of Huron, a new corporation, to begin business hers June 1. It Is proposed to increase ths capital stock to $60,000 and eventually to moke the new institution s national bank. pee want ads produce results AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Cammisiion Van and Packers Lock Horns 0ar Wha Eh all Stand Inspection Lees?, SHIPPERS ADVISED TO HOLD OFF STOCK Packers Want to Pay After Inspec tion of Carcaa, Which Wonld Throw Losses for Rejected Stock on Shipper. Following the report from other packing centers to the effect that the packers have Insisted on the rule that no stock be paid for until the animals have passed the final post mortem Inspection, the Indications are that the same matter will precipitate a warm fight here. The commission men, like those of Sioux City and Kansas City, have refused to sell under the now condi tions and have advised customers not to ehip cows and heifers until the matter could be adjusted. Formerly as soon as an animal was weighed out to a Arm and not separated as "subject to Inspection," the stock had to be thus received and paid for by the packer. The packers complain that too much stock Is condemned and the new rule Is the same as If all stock were sold -subject to Inspection. This will put the losses all on the shipper, for If an animal falls to pass the Inspector the price will be nominal. Justice Tempered with Mercy. The police court was busy with a number of cases yesterday, In which the Judge mingled far more commlserntlon and mercy than strict Justice. The first case was that of Peter and Katie Ruane, husband and wife. She charged him with abandonment and nonsupport. She declared that ha had only given her $5 since last September and had not made any effort to please her. She was a thin little creature. Illy adapted to a life of struggle. Neither did she have the Independence that a woman thus alone should have. The man, however, lookrtl the part Indicated In her charges. The men sulked before the court and hinted at dark things In the life of his wife. The Judge bound htm over to the district court, and then the courage of the woman failed her and she begged piteously that he might be released. She wanted the court to give him another chance. The Judge was con siderably exasperated at this change in what he thought a highly merited prosecu tion, but the woman said she would not appear before the higher tribunal to testify against her husband on a criminal charge. As a compromise the Jndge placed Ruane under (200 bonds to support his wife and to protect her. The woman spent all day fixing up the bond that her husband might be released from custody. Another case was that of John Nemes, a Hungarian Jew, employed at the Omaha packing plant. He was arrested for al leged forgery. It was said that he forged the name of Adolph Fried, proprietor of the Roosevelt hotel, on a check at the Packers National bank. When .the case came to trial the prosecution weakened. They were both of the same nationality. Nemes paid back the money secured by the check and then the prosecution refused to testify against the man. He was al lowed his liberty on paying the court costs. He has a wife In Hungary and has sent her over $100 in the last few months. It was partly on her account that he escaped punishment on a felony charge. The third case was the trial of W, E Bell and William Sawyer for displaying a gun and threatening to shoot the Inmates of one of the houses of all nations on lower N street All the parties were col ored and the case had all the usual fea tures of a rough house among the Afri cans. The two men were preparing to leave the city, they said, but got Into an altercation with Eva Still, the landlady. This passage of arms consisted of throw ing crockery at each other's head. Bach side made free with the soup bowls and other utensils. Finally tha woman re sorted to a chair as a weapon more nearly In order of progression, and the two men drew guns and threatened to perforate the anatomy of a half dozen women who were more or less Interested In the "high Jinks." Someone warned the police and the men were taken up and fined Bell $2 and Saw yer $10. They promised to leave town at once and the Judge for this reason re frained from his original Intention of giv ing them the limit Senior Fair and Art Bxhlblt. Everything Is now In readiness for the welcome to a large crowd at the fair and art exhibit to be given by the class of '07 thia evening at tho high cchcol, and tho booths are all In readiness.
