When Paul Arm strong wrote that little piece and named It an "American comedy" he showed he ad a very Intelligent conception of dis tinctive Americanism and what a distinct American likes, lie waa so fortunate In mixing the elements of human nature that he turned out a piece- which con tinues to appeal with strong force and fascination to the American public. Of course he opened the door of his play wide enough to admit some Incongruous, It not Impossible, things they all do that tut along with the foibles came some mighty strong parts, some elements from which practical object lessons were nicely injured. Perhaps it Is the character of western Ism, alBMSt aa much as the triumph (t horse sense Over supercilious airs, tht makes the play so popular In the trans Missouri country, where "The Virginian" and other similar plays hold such h'lg-i places tn the affection of persons who go to the theater for Uie genuine pleasure und entertainment to be derived. At any lite this feature of "The Heir to the Hoorah" certainly poaseases a maglo charm. Those old rough and readies, like Dave Lacy and "the gang," are Just as attractive In "The Heir to the Hoorah" as they are In ;The Virginian" and vice versa. There Is something about that vtt of the thing on the stage, which, to men and v. omen accustomed to aeelng beneath the venoer cf life, la mighty r. holcsome. Borne way or other when yyU take the love of one of these "bloom leg hanlinala," as the Imported, butler Us them, and apply to It the delicate tcuch of cultured refinement you have a iaoncottlun of delectable savor. With but few exceptions Mr. Armstrong manages to weave his love thread through with out getting It tangled. 1 .. . ' . A . I ira cuiupany presenting me piay at tne Boyd Is a very good one. It has the agreeablo feature of being well balanced. Tho leading parts are all well played and yet, are not too far In advance of a single minor. Frank Monroe and Alice Murell tarry their parte aa Joe Lacy and Mrs. Lacy with good effect, Mr. Monroe bearing Ills heavier role with particular success. Mr. Monrae deserves the thanks of the audiences that hear him for his good articulation; In fact his elocution Is quite above the ordinary. Helene Lacks ye, as Mrs. Kate Brandon of the Katydid mine. Is real good; Harry D. Crosby as Dave Lacy, one of the richest of all the parts, is excellent and so Is Ralph Dean as Bud Young. Gene La Motte plays Madge Casey in very good style and tho whole "bunch" of miners are as gbod as they need to be. The piece will be repeated tonight and Saturday night with a Saturday matinee. It affords an evening of real pleasure. - thorltees here and plaed In the dipsomaniac ward, but a snort time ago was released.

Plalnvlew News. A New Horseless A new kind of "horse- less" wagon seen . by the Presbyterian church last Saturday noon. It was an ordinary lumber wagon to which a cow was tied on behind and "bossy" was push ing It up the street. We had seen horse less carriages before but this was the first we had seen of this kind. Edgar Post. Expense to the Government A few years ago ,when the rural postal routes were first established near Fremont one or two prominent farmers of the non-progressive stripe refused to sign for a long time on the grounds that they feared it was too 1 great an expenae to the government. We can't help but think of this when we see the tons of printed matter sent out from the government printing office under the government frank. Fremont Herald. Nature Fake A man with two heads on his shoulders was exhibited In North Platte the otter night. Both were fully developed and were rather handsome tn features, one . being black and the other red. The man waa not an ordinary mu seum freak, as might be supposed, but is a man who lives In this city and moves In polite society. The other head on his shoulder was that of his sweetheart, and possibly would not have been seen In that deformed position had It not been for the blowing of the window curtain out of place.

The young folks returned to Walthlll last Friday evening and have gone to house keeping at the G. W. Mills residence. Both bride and groom are well and favorably known In Walthlll. Mr. Nielsen Is our beat looking and popular tonsorial artist and, la so Jolly and good natured aa to be entitled to the distinction of being the best fellow In town.

When the young, vigorous men In a com munity organize a ball team and put up a good game, and hold their own with the youngsters of other towne, you sort of warm up to the boys, ond feel proud of their honestly won victories. . The sharp tongucd badinage of the "rooters" learnt them to give and take, and helps train them In those lessons of forbearance and self control we all need In making our way through the world. The desire to win is the Impulse which Inclines to temperate habits so essential to a fine physique. All this tends to good health, good nuture and courteous manners. Healthy bodice, blood snd brawn, makes healthy brains and sound minds. Good! When clubs begin to plug up with hired professionals It be comes a gamble not Innocent sport. Tho men who earn their living In the shops, farms and offices ere not expected to go up against professionals. When the game only means that the town having the moat fools who will put up good money to hire professionals to win them honors they cannot win on their own merits It Is time for honcrt amateurs to quit the game, and respectable people, who do not believe In gambling frauds, to frown It down. Bayard Transcript. AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Clerk Finally . Able to Compile Sum mary of Registration. REPUBLICANS IN THE LEAD AH of the Books Not Yet Returned, bat flume Have Been Urongbt In from Bach Precinct in City. POLK IS GETTING TO THll FRONT First Year of Its History Si Most Prosperous One. POLK. Neb.. Sept. 13.-(6peclal.) It was a year ago Thursday that the City Im provement company held Its auction sale of lots In the village of Polk. At that time there was not a building on the town site. Today there are more than fifty resi dences which have cither been erected or moved In during the year and the town has a population of nearly 300. Concrete sidewalks extend throughout the business portion and many residence districts, and there are more than a score of business houses, accommodating five general stores, two millinery establishments, one hard ware, one hardware and furniture, a drug store, meat market, pool room, newspaper, barber shop, two restaurants, two lumber yards, two implement houses, two livery barns, two banks, two doctors and a I dentist. Besides these there are three ele- i vators, and two firms are engaged In the llvo stock business. The town has two churches, a water works system has been Installed and work will soon commence on a four-room brick school building. The growth has not ceased, but Improve ments continue at a rapid pace. Several more residences will be erected this fall, the First National bsnk Is putting up a two-story building, which will be the fu ture home of the bank, Tes"ll Brothers have begun work on a fifty-foot front, .press brick .building, and Ira Pleoslnger Is erecting a brick structure for liU meat market. Polk is situated In as rich and productive a territory as can be found In Nebraska, and is destined to become one of the lead ing towns in Nebraska within a few years. The city clerk was uble tn make a sum mary of the registration returns yesterday for the first time. All of the books have not yet found their way back to the clerk's office, but part of the books from each precinct have been returned, so that thj registrations could be summarized. This registration shows a total of 1,401, of which 751 are registered republican and 627 demo cratic, with twenty-two scattering. The republican lead in the registration Is 125. The Second precinct of the Second ward is democratic. The other democratic pre cincts are In tho Third ond Fourth wards and the Second precinct of the Fifth ward. Therefore six of the South Omaha precincts are democratic and six republican, accord ing to the registration. The republicans are exceptionally strong in the Sixth and the First wards. In .he First precinct of the Second ward the majority is heavy, but In the First of the Fifth the lead is slight. Last year the first day of registration showed 407 republicans and 377 democrats. The increase this year is due to a con siderable extent to tho fact that the flrtt day of registration and the primary elec tion were on the same drtte. The total registration lust year waa 3.685, of which the republicans registered 1.M7 and the democrats 1,673, with It scattering. The total vote of the city should be near 6,000 this year,, but probably will be less. ; Troubles sre Settled. Tho troubles of Kansus Rkldles and Anna Howard have kept tho South Omaha police court In a state of turmoil for the last three days and have caused many colored people to throng the audience chamber. The argu ment which lead to the police court airing took place a week ago when the two tried to convince each other by the use of brick bats and a magnetic tackhammcr that "thus was so" and "that was It." Anna Howard was knocked InsensiMe by tho taekhummer and adjudged Worsted In the argument. She appealed to the police court to sustain her contention, and likewise Kan sas Riddles asserted that Anna Howard was tho aggressor in the case and filed a counter-charge. Yesterday, after the hatred had boiled down to a simmer, two attorneys settled the dlfilculty out of court and the case was dismissed on each defendant pay ing the cost of serving the subpoenas.
