Iowa-A mra Deadlock, still on. IOWA CITY, la,, Jan. 11. (Speclal.) Progreas on tho formation of Iowa's foot ball schedule Is at a standstill owing to the uncertainty of a game with Ames. The Iowa management, forced by Interviews printed from Ames to remain silent, refused In make a move and Ames has not denied I he newspaper stories. The deadlock seems likely to exlat and In case It does Iowa will endeavor to add another conference game In tta place, much as It dislikes to do so. A simple denial from the Aggies to the effect that the Interviews were untrue would render the path easy for an "era of food feeling" between the two schools. But 'rof. Beyer staled that an offer from Iowa "to resume athletic relations would mean that' the local school was In the wrong' In the controversy which ended the relations originally. Iowa Is under fontract to play Kansas at Lawrence and Nebraska at Lincoln. It la probable Illinois, Cornell and Ames or por ous or inmana win oe me nome games.

Akin 1 MAYOR JIM HERO IN . DRAMA Omaha Chief Executive it Chief Element of New Comedy. "AN INTERNATIONAL MARRIAGE" t Author MtkM Mayor Former l.i Irrman In trad of (owlioj and Father of lrl Who Marrlee Omaha Congressman. Mayor Dahlman has been dramatized. He appears In George Broartlitarst's new comedy, "An International Marriage." as the father of a young woman who wishes to marry the nephew of a European king. i with the king objecting strenuously. One might fancy that the father OT-the girl Is Senator F.lkins, but not so, because the program of the comedy distinctly says that the father Is mayor of Omaha several times elected such. Now daughter Is a little flighty, and while the thinks she wishes to marry the duke, she Is really In love according to the drama with a Nebraska congressmen. whom she ultimately merries. ThJs con gressman Is made to come from the con gressional district In which the mayor lives Mayor Jim Is pretty well disguised in the drama. Instead of being a former cow- puncher, he is a laundryman who brags of being self-made through Ms wringing ma chine. Dahlman's own preference would probably be the lariat Instead of the mangle and a decollete revolver In place of an Ironing board. gar He la Slanarr. According to Franklin Fyles, who writes of the play, Mayor Dahlman, who goes under the resounding same of Bennington Brent In the play, is slightly addicted to slang, and this Is, of course, a gross libel, for past the barrier of the mayor's lips there never wells forth aught but the purest stream of English undeflled. When the duke asks him for his daughter and she wants him to say yes be blurts out to the young fellow: "You look like the goods all right, but I won't know you for a sure good thing till I've run' you through my wringer." And, then again, when the duke is spoken of as likely to fool his daughter the mayor casually remarks: "He stands as much chance as a dog with tallow legs chasing an asbestos cat through h 1." "The proudest day of my life," he re marks when congratulated on his daugh ter's engagement to the possible lielr to a throne, "Isn't thfs one. but the day that 200 leading Omaha men banquetted me after my last re-election to the mayoralty, and every one wore a shirt done up In a laundry of mine." "aadjooks!" quoth Mayor Da-hlman when he read that he had been put In a play. "Methlnks this Broad hurst wight must have been swly shy on material. Which Senator is lift Now this Senator Williamson who ap pears In the play. Wonder If that is Burkett or Brown. There was unconscious humor In Burketl's bill to make every man alng "Mother, Mother, Mother, Pin a Rose on Me,' while Brown's opinion of hifnself hath a comic effect in a contrast way. "This making me out 'crude, slangy and abusive' is a trifle unkind, but I suppose every Utile bit of advertising helps. This banquet business must have been the last time , ate goat. It could not possibly be the Jacksonlan dinner." ' Mayor Dahlman goes to the theater rather Infrequently, his last visit being when Ed win Holt .'played "The Mayor and the Mani cure' here. However, he announces that It "An International Marriage" lasts " long enough to get to Omaha he will give a box party. It Is likely though that tho new Broadhurst play, so-r.illed, will perish as quickly as the dos with the tallow legs." FAMILY TO BE REUNITED SOON Husband Released from Denver .In 11 and Coming Here to Meet Family, Declaring that her husband, William Wil liams of Denver, would be a "bether mon" If he were with her and removed from his accustomed surroundings, Mrs. Williams asked the police Saturday afternoon to have him come to Omaha and meet her, after which the couple, with their three small children, are planning to go to New York City to live. Broadly Scotch and with her own Ideas of how to make a man do right. Mrs. Wil liams told Captain Dunn of the local police department that she wanted her husband to get out of jail at Denver, where be is tald to be a "bad actor" and was locked up some time ago on the charge of abusing his family, "He will be a bether mon whin Al get hold on heem and we g'lang to the Aste," the said. And forthwith she confided her belief that men are not such bad creatures, after all, when the Influences and surround ings they are subjected to are of the best. Captain Dunn telegraphed to the Denver police and learned that William had been released from Jail there and would come to Omaha as soon as possible. Ills wife ex pects to meet him today and go east with him, where she already ha visions of a happy and prosperous living fur the family. Officer V.'. R. Wilson, on duty at the Union depot, discovered Mrs. Williams and her children living at a Tenth street lodging house near the depot, where they had been for a few day after arriving from Denver. They had sufficient money to ray for a week's lodging and were waiting for the head of the family to come. When the officers Interested themselves In the case, Mrs. Williams confided in them, with the result that the family will soon be united and probably happily.

"When preparing tor bed the face should be thoroughly washed with warm water and a good soap or finely ground oatmeal," says Harper's Bazar.

To this rule "The Girl at the Helm" 1s no exception. This lively offering was given Its first presentation at the Hoyd last evening and Its comedy, tuneful melodies, dsnces and handsome settings make a favorable recep tion certain. There is also a pint, perhaps a shade more coherent than the average musical comedy plot, but not so much of a story either that It will become famous as a narrative. It serves effectively, however, to Introduce a little .flirting, a little love making and considerable music.

Her co-laborers In this are Flor ence Aiartin, a pretty and dainty young woman with the beat voice In the company, and Countess Olga von Hatzfeldt. The lat ter Is the name of the singer, not the char acter, and by some soft of irony is playing a soubrette role rather than that of a member of 'he nobility. However, since she Is as pe.-t and saucy as soubrettes ought to be, there is no need to lament the fact. The most novel stage effects of the com edy are the staging of the songs, "The Long Green" and "The Ghost of Ragtime." In the first the chorus successively and suc cessfully represents a poker game, a roulette wheel and a steeplechase; the spooks who shadow , forth the wraiths of syncopated music prove to be attractively substantial when the. stage is at length lighted .up.

The company la of sufficient slzo and strength to satisfactorily presen the pieces It has undertaken, and from the reception accorded the players at the two performances Sunday it is safe to ventum the criticism that they proved not only acceptable, but also meritorious. Among them is Jacob Frank, who ap peared in Omaha aome time ago and made many friends; also his two children. Heckle and Abe, who are quite clever for ttn-lr age; and Madam Vannle Relnhart, whose contralto voice and dramatic abil ity make her one of the principal mem bers of the company and a Yiddish actress of admitted prominence. "Die Goldene Medlneh," or "The Golden Country," which was presented at the Sunday matinee, la a comedy drama ot life In the Ghetto of New York City, and, although It ends with the suicide of one of the main characters, It is of such a nature that tne audience that witnessed it yesterday was kept laughing most of ()i time.

A more pretentious undertaking, "Jeshlve Bocher," a play intended lu be the 'ilani lel" of the Jewish stage, was given Sun day evening.

It Is almost mean in Its sordldness, the annals of a girl whose life went on the shoals because she did not know how to avoid them the creature of a civilization that permits such things. Grim poverty, misery, want and shame were her portion. She had a glimpse of happiness, but through no fault of her own Fhe was thrust back Into the gloom of her unrappy career, and suffered that others n.ight not have lo work ss she worked The other characters are all extremes, not types, but fit well Into the story Hardy has to tell. Tho play was made for Mrs, Flske, and by her used for several seasons, It Is her version that Is being offered al the Burwood this week. Muss Klliott plays the leading role In a most Impressive nit nner. From the girl who shrinks In honor at the realization Of what she has lost, but who Is determined to keep her soul clean through It all, to the wtn.an who resigns herself to the officers as they lead her away to prison and death, happy because she has tasted for a brief hour of real lovp tnd tender care, sh9 moves step by step, making each point dear, and 'fully realizing the possibilities of the difficult part.

That site bestews much care on any part she essays l as come to be generally accepted, and Tess has been prepared and Is presented most conscientiously. It will be listed as among her great roles. Mr. Grew gives to the somewhat con tradictory character of Angel Claire a quality that almost makes It seem logical. The sympathy with which he endows the part In the closing scenes makes amends for his neglect of Tess at a time when a llttl'j devotion would have been of real servlco to her.

"What youalls' want In dis heah kitchen o mine? interrogated a chocolate-colored matron, whose equanimity was disturbed Sunday morning by the Intrusion of Detec tives Maloney and Van Deuaen Into her combination kitchen, drawing room and bed chamber. Just as she was putting the finishing touches to a savory Sunday din ner. "Where did you get that pork?" queried one of the officers In response, with a sug geetlve glance In the direction of a steam ing kettle of meat that was about to tickle the palatea of the colored couple. "Shua, mai, dat ain't no poke, dat's chicken. Aain't you go no nose fo' fowl? What done make you biieve dat was poke 'n dat kittle?" And with a sniff of disgust at the evident lack of knowledge of things culinary, the dusky queen of the two-by. four cook stove uncovered the meat In the kettle and lifted out a .fat drumstick for tbe inspection of "de law." ' After a cursory glance that convinced them that no "poke" waa In evidence, the two sleuths hurriedly left the place and hied themselves to other quarters to look for tho object of their search, a 150-pound box of pork tenderloins that was stolen from the sidewalk near Fifteenth and Web ster streets Sunday morning. The owner, John Swanson, a butcher living; at 3114 Lake street, had Just taken the box containing the meat from the Webster street freight depot and had gone back to get a hammer and some nails to nail up a corner that waa breaking open. When he returned to the sidewalk with his hammer and nails, his meat was gone, and the police were called upon to find It and the thief. How ever, the mammy's chicken waa as near as they came to discovering the pork dur ing the day, and after that venture they decided not to trust to their sense of smell In trying to locate it. Monday morning tho box of pork was found In possession of several second-hand men, who had found It on the sldewilk and put It where It would be safe. However, the meat had frozen and nad to be thawed out on the radiator in Captain Savage's office at the police station, so the owner may find that It Is now radiated pork a la steam Instead of the original article.
