The national tiieatncal wur with the Klaw and Eilanger syndicate lined up on one side and the Cort-Cahn-Wells-Shn-b.rt coalition on the other has passed be ond the possibility of a true, ah hough John fort, head of the new Nutlonal Theatergoers' Association of America, has acked for audiences before the 1'roduclng Matiaxers' association.

"Jake" Wells, the newly elected presi dent of the Ne V Independent Southern Managers' association, sent a telegram to John Cent saying he would arrive in New York before next Tuesday from Atlanta, lla bringing glad tidings of the sunder ing of the theatrical bonds of the couth. According to the adherents of the syndi cate. Mr. Wells has assumed a rolo e.f dictatorship In the south which he cannot very well carry out.

A great deal of opposition de veloped to the plan to have John Cort confer with the National Association elr Theatrical l'roduej- Ing Managers, aome evidently fearing that Mr. Cdrt, acting on behalf of the 'indepen dent, " would enter l.ito some sort of agre; ment which would work a nardshlp on the one-night managers and the w-e-aker mem bers of the new national association eif "Independents." According to Cort this fear Is groundless. Teiday M. Cort said: ( "This action docs not mean that .the iiidepemlents' have receded from the posi tion originally taken.

Omaha's interest In the alleged "war" of the manager Is In a present sense rather remote. When Manager Hurgess of the Draueleis was asked about the situation, he said the only effect it might have would be to end to this city more of the strortg attractions and for a longer time. Klaw ft Krlanger will be relieved from the neces sity of booking attractions for the smaller towns, and will thus be able to take better cure of the larger cities. For example, when Kliiie Janls was engaged at the Brandeis, playing to capacity business at each per formance, she was rut out of one night In Omaha that Lincoln might have the attrac tion. Maude Adams was bookevl out of New York for short stays In Omaha, Kan sas City, Denver and other western cities. In order that she might get Into a number of the smaller towns whose theaters have now gone Into the Shubert combination. Otis Skinner Is another of the stars who w ill play but one night In Omaha because he has been putting In time at the theaters now tii ken over by the Cort comblnntlon with the Shuberts. In the future these stars will be permitted to stay longer at the first class theaters In the larger cltle. The Shuberts are generally understood to have a lease on the Boyd theater, to tHke hold when the Hurgess & Woodward lease expires in June, lftll. This will bring Omaha directly Into the conflict. When the pres ent season opened the Shuberts arranged to book their attractions at the Hurwood, since named the (iayety. Several fine com panies were sent on, during the early part of tho season, but It soon became apparent that the managers did not have enough at tractions to keep the house open, and the contract between the Shuberts and Messrs. Johnson & Bilz was canceled. This shuts the Shuberts out of Omaha until they can secure the Boyd theater.

Collins Tells of These Two in His Book of the Plains. KNEW U. S. GRANT VERY WELL Father of I. . Collin Responsible for f.rant Rein Pressed Into fcrrtlre for the (111 "nr. John 8. Cedllns. who died In Omaha Fri day, did e-onslderable literary work during his lifetime. In his book "Across the Plains In '61," he presents two fascinating sketches of two distinguished characters who Illumine the pages of American his tory. One of these la General Geoigo Crook, tho Indian fighter, and the other Is Gen eral I'lysses 8. G'ant. In fact, had Is not been for the elder Collins, the father of the author, It Is a grave question whether Grant would ever have been known to the world at large-, despite the destiny which shapes tho cml of all mankind. It Is a fact that the warm friendship which ex isted between the Collins an! the Grant families was responsible for bringing Into the light of public notice the retiring and modest Grant, who was known to few people n Galena, while In the wild scramble for fat commissions In the serv ice by the peilltlclans at the outbreak of the war, Grant remained in the back ground overlooked and forgotten by even the few friends who knew him, excepting Collins. In referring to General Crook In his book, Mr. Collins recalls the petrsonal friendship which existed between him and Crttok and he recounts the names of three scouts who played a prominent part In the campaign directed by General Crook against the In dians. One of the scouts Is Buffalo Bill. The other two although not so widely known were men' whose daring and knowl edge of the plains and the Indians made their services eeiually valuable. These men were Baptlste Oarnler, better known at "Little Bat and Frank Grouard. Lit tle Bat, who took a prominent part In the battle of Wounded Knee, was killed by a saloon keeper at Crawford. Grouard was until recently recently, a scout at Pine Hidge. Little Bat had a record of hav ing kllleei eighty-three bears. His ability in following a trail Is described by the author as simply marvelous. He would trail an animal over the hardest country with sometimes only a turned pebble to guide him. Two Fathers Partners. . In 1841. F.ll A. Collins, father of the author, and Jesse? R. Grant, father of Gen eral Grant, opened at Galena, 111., the first leather and saddlery store west of Buffalo. Jes?e R. Grant operated u small tannery at Bethel, O., and tanned the hides boiignt at Galena. They were shipped from one point to the other by stern wheel steam ers. Chicago was then a settlement com prised of old Fort Dearborn, a fur trading point, and a few buildings. Galena, by comparison, was a metropolis, and the sup plies from St. Louis were shipped there. The only rival of the bustling place was Dubueiue. Hides and pig lead were the art icles of trade In the river commerce be tween Galena and St. Louis. Each "pig" was branded at the end with a letter Indi cating the ownership, and It was, with the hide, one of tho principal commodities dealt in by Collins & Co. Grant withdrew from the firm In 1853 and opened an opposi tion tore, placing his brother, Simpson S. Grant, in charge. In ldCO L'. S. Grant went to Work In the store. Travel between Galena and Buffalo In those day waa .by stage and It was a courageous man who would attempt the tedious trip for the purpose of replenishing stock. When the purchaser started out he. ueually carried a carpet bag full of coin for other mediums and looked after their trading for them. The trip from Buffalo to New York was by the cars. So Important an event as the arrival-of the stage twice a week caused the stores to suspend business for the time being. Stage robbers were unknown in those days and the valuable baggage of the tourist was thrown carelessly In one of the for ward boots of the stage. Postage was 23 cents for each letter and an eastern news paper several weeks old sold for tho same price. Jt was no uncommon thing in those duys to see shot bags of silver coin lean ing against the store outside. Robberies and holdups were unknown. The water Ey8tcm u Galena was "Swaiuey," a negro siave. owuca tn Missouri, who drove a two w heeled dray carrjlng three water barrels from which he supplied the stores with a bucket of river water for 15 cents per week and earned from fl to V2 p-.r day. Lively on Pay IJny. The event of importance was when th loggers were paid off at the end of a trip up me river with logs for the sawmill. Kach one rcctivtd hi:) years wages, from $300 to flint. In u lttmy. Tle mayor, tlie author says, did not turn the keys of tlie town over to the intn. But this made no difference. They took 11 Just the same. The first th'ng was to "tog out" in u new felt hat, flannel shirt, trousers, belt -and red-topped boots. After a square meal, the town began to move. There was no war tax on whisky and 50 cents a gallon was the price. As soon us tne men got filled up and the fighting began tho inercliunts began to put up their shutters lo save the window glass. Stones flew a:i thick as hail and the aim of tlie boozy catapult gave no Indication of where the missiles were going to strike. Tom o'Leary, the town marshal, would press his constables into service and swear In every Idle man on the street to help arrest the ringleaders. They were rounded up and put in the calaboose, which was often filled to overflowing. Owners of the packet Iir,e3 which plied the river, the author says, lived all the wjy between St. Louis and St. Paul. A steamboat captain was a king and the pilot! was prmco. the pilots pay was from $JO) to H00 per month and when one of these richly bedecked men with ruffled shirt walked down the gangplank and .stepped on shore, the earth trembled. When rival steamboat lines, in the scramble for pas sengers, began to cut rates it was cheaper to trakcl than to stay at home. Such are a few of the. sidelights w.'iLii added l ister to Galena's metropolitan life when in IStiO Mcneial Giant i.egan his business career there. Today it Is, surrounded by railroad on every side. Galena's glory ended as a steamboat power with the arrival of the Illinois Central, the first rallraad into tne town. , One of General Giant's staff officers dui ing tiie civil war, l-;il S. Paiker. was a full-blooehd Seneca Indian and then chief of the "Six Nations." He was by profe-s-ttem an engineer. As superintendent of consti uction for the government he built the j-oatoffice for Galena In ISoT-iS. He was Immensely popular i.nd was iniited to all the public as well as tho social func tion of the town. The auirur say he kpeni many an Interesting -p,y in (no so ciety of the engineer who ., a fino shot and loved lo hunt. William S. Rowley was also on Grunt's staff and John A. Ran lira, a chief of staff, became his scr-nary of war and later a leading attorney of Ga lena. Giant firn visit to Galena was made in when he was lou.ln- the upper Mis- slfslppl. The steamer ran aground and the! wnl took advantage of the opportunity to walk three miles to the home of the author's father, K. A. Collins. The gen eial's first war boise was sent to General J. F.. Smith, a friend of General Grant, and its honrs now rest somewhere on the "t-ovon hills," which make up the city of Galena. Giant did not live In Galena very long, it was a new life for him ami as he was quiet and unobtrusive he did not make acquaintances fast, lie was so little known that the merchants refused to run a family supply oeenunt with him. It Is a well known fact that Thomas Ollton,' a grocer of tho place, declined to send a barrel of flour lo his home unless the order was aicompnled with cash. E. A. Collins guar anteed the bill and the flour was sent. After this Incident, says tho author, no guarantee was necessary. Grant drove a span of black ponies and frequently spent Sunday at the home of K. A. Collins with his family. He visited the Coll Inn store nearly every day and was almost always smoking. When the war of the rebellion breika out politicians were especially anxious to get a commission from captaincy up and go to the fremt. K. B. Washburn, a republican congressman from the northern part of the state, was par tlcul iily active. In this hurry and scramble the name eif Grant was never mentioned. Tho author, on leaving the store one noein with his father, K. A. Collins, met Wash burn. There was a wide difference In politics between the two men, but It did not prevent the eider Collins from addressing Washburn,'1 nor from calling his attention to Grant. He said: "Washburn, you and your political friends In all your activity In calling meeting.", raising troops and appointing officers, evi dently are not aware of a man In your midst that has been educated by the gov ernment and served under S5hc.Ii Taylor In the Mexican war and that he knows some thing about practical warfare." "Who Is this man?" was the question sked by Washburn. "IMysses S. Grant, whom you all pasr on the street every day and do not know," was the reply of Collins. (Irani Is Illseo crei'. Washburn promised to look him up anil at the next meeting for the enlisting of treiors, Grant was railed out of tie uiellen-'e- and Invited to the platform. At the close of the meeting Grant was appolnteel to the position of drill master of newly-recruited men. This was the beginning of Grant's career in the war of the rebellion and it was astonishing, says the author, to note the. alacrity with which hundreds of people suddenly came to know the man whoso Illustrious career is Interwoven with Amer ican history. During the war Grant tendered Collins numerous positions, although he was politi cally opposed to the views entertained by Grant, but he woulel accept none of them. When Grant was elected president he wrotei a personal letter in which he said that hei had promised to make Washburn secretary of war, but that Collins could name the man for the second office. Pompeian Room at the Brandeis Contract Let to Thompson-Starret; Company for Ornate Refresh ment Room in Subway.
