ing U. liralnnlna with a
ihi?. afurnoon. Gua Edwards has
hlmsc!' l;i School Davn" and
many surprises, both musical and farcical,
are furnished. The three act are held to
aether by a clover end Interesting plot.
Herman Timbers continues In the leading
role, that of lzzy Kevl, a poor boy just
arrived from Runs la with a violin and the
ability to play It.. Me Is a clever singer
and grotesque dancer and will be warmly
weloomcd, particularly by those who saw
him last year. His supporting company
oonslsts principally of those who were In
the original rast. but the management has
made a few changes to strengthen the per
formance for this season's production.'
One" scene shows, the school exterior, an
other the school room, and the third a
home of on of the pupils. Catchy songs
and dances are Introduced In each not. the
kind of songs whPh the gallery takes up
almost on the Instant. In addition to
'Lucy Anna tu." "Merry-Go-Round."
"Heckle Stay In Ytuir Mark Yard" and "I'd
I-nve You All Ihe More for That." which
met with such' favor last ear, a number
of new songs are included this year which
will he heard here for the first time. In
cluding several compositions by lierniun
Tlniberg.
One of the beautiful electrical effects of
"School Iays" is In the finale of the second
act. It Is a merry-go-round scene and is
decidedly one of the most striking mechani
cal stage effects ever seen In mimical com
edy. Within the twinkling of an eye the
desks In the school room are placed to
gether and are whirled around with the
children upon them, while streamers of
ribbon held up by the chorus add to the
effectiveness. "School Hays" Is under the
management of Stair and llavlln.
Miss Lang Is coming back to her own
this week at the Uoyd; which is to say
she will come nearer to playing her own
beautiful self than she has for sometime.
The bill for the week Is "An American
Widow." a comedy of three acts, in which
Miss Lillian Itussell was once seen In
Omaha. It tells a clever story In a clever
way. and will also afford a chance for
Miss Lang to show the women folks some
of her new Purls frocks, which she re
celved direct from Worth's last year and
haa not yet had a chance to show. Several
"ocstume" plays In succession have inter
fered with the display of fine gowns on
the atae at ti e lioyd, but this Is to be
made up for In "An American Widow,"
which Is essentially it "di-eas" play. The

With a bill the eclipses all yet seen at
tl-.o American, this handsome theater, will
inter upon Its third week today with
several features. Hob Fltzslmmonn and hi.i
wife will delight Omaha with a clever
sketch entitled "A Men's a Man for A'
That." Appe.arlng with the former heavy
weight champion of the world Is his hand
some wife. Julia Clifford, a star In the oper
atic' world. Mrs. FltJslmmons sings with
clarity and range of tone heard only when
a real star sings. The sketch affords the
famous forulshman to give an exhibition
of bag punching and this scene ends with
a powerful blow that sends the bag sing
ing over the heads of the audience. The
ex-champion makes a standing offer, open
to any blacksmith In Omaha, that he can
make more horseshoes In .an hour's time
than any man In the trade. . One of his most
cherished mementoes Is his membership
In the union. Before Fltsslmmons awoke
to the fact that he had the making of a
champion, he was a blacksmith in Aus
trullu. and It was here, while In a speed
contest, that he was first "discovered."
Among the other attractions Is Miss
Sadie Sherman, who will appear in her
original sketch "Thoto-Types." Dave
Rafael is a ventriloquist of international
fame who will delight the audience with
his two pigmies. Oairlty sisters have a
dancing and alnging act that is decldely
novel and far above the average. Leonard.
Clancy Twins are laugh producers above
par. They have some decldely clever
parodies.
"Thw Jolly Giiis," wlio are Just what
for its second week In burlesque. Sunday
afternoon and remain until Wednesday
nlgiit giving two shows dally for the four
days. "The Jolly Girls" Is a true musical
extravaganza, which has for its feature
numbers, two burlettae. entitled "The Fly
ing Man from Mexico," and "An Irish
Pa ha." interspert-ed la an olio that would
In Itself he a vaudeville attraction of suffi
cient merit to warrant the appreciation of
the public. The burlettas offer unusual op
Hrt unities for pretty scenic and electrical
iffects. The musical numbers give the
pretty chorus girls opioi tunltles to appear
to best advantage and the cemedians keep
the audience convulsed from the time
the curtain rise until the finale is played
In the burletta "An Irish Pasha" each
member of the company Is given an op
portunity to appear in a congenial role.
The music Is bright and jingling, the com
edy crisp and full of mirth-provoking situ
ations. The coaiumes are gorgeous and
these are tnhancfd bv the biilllant stsge
nettings and i.nl.me eUcirUal effects, al
together making up utie of the liemt bills on
the burlesque stage. In the olio are Tom
Kennedy, the Irish comedian: the three
AimxtrongH. .sensational comedy cyclists:
Ktta Victoria, Heat rice Harlowe, the crea
tor of character auiigs and several other
oomedlans and comediennes.
- The attraction at the popular Gayety
theater the coming week will be the "Mara
thon Girls," Phil thertdan's new all-star
oompany, to a production that Is said to
be the moat pretentious that this energetic
manager has t attempted. The rollick-
Ing. two-act musical farce. "Craxy Finance"
will be presented, and Ed Morton, singing
comedian: Hastings and Wilson. "The
f-uriatics "; Alfred K. Hall, eccentric come
dian and dancer; Fyvie Dench.
1 Australian contralto: Carrie Cooper,
dainty comedjenne: Mark Adams and.
Louis Kashmnn, German character
comedians, will Interpret the various
roles and Introduce specialties through the
performance. The many musical numbers
hove been selected, not only because of
their popularity but also for their fitness
for the comedy, and the large company of
ringing and dancing girlies will wear a
varied assortment of modern and attractive
costumes. Today's -.nattnee will open the
engagement and starting tomorrow there
will be a ladles' matinee daily.
. $
An innovation will be inaugurated at the
popular Gayety next Saturday night, the
plan bring to give an entire evening of
"amateur acts" and a few choice photo
play subjects. Unlimited fun Is possible at
an amateur contest, the contestants being
looal aspirants to stage honors. Omaha
has a world of would-le vaudeville stars
and their talents will be Judged by the
audience, and cash prizes awarded ac
cordingly. These amateur contests will he
a regular Saturday night attraction and
there Is every reason to believe that they
will eventually become the rage, the same
as they have In many theaters In the
east, where one night each week Is set
side for the embryo thesplans who, in
giving their version of what is entertain
ing, do some outlandish, most ridiculous
things, that evoke veritable waves of
laughter. No ban will be placed on laughs.
Vou may laugh until you faintand you
undoubtedly will.
KEEPING THE MIND ACTIVE

Wednesday is sewing day In many house
holds, and on that day very often the
mother finds herself silting alone in the
sewing room with a great pile of mending
at her feet, remarks the Hoston Herald.
She has plenty to do and her fingers 'fly
as she works, but how often her mind Is
quite empty and her ideas float hazily by,
coming from nowhere and going nowhere I
She may be planning nut some details of
her housekeeping or Idly turning over In
her mind events that have passed or are
to come. She may be nourishing old
grievances or sorrows, but In nine cases
out of ten she is not actively occupied
mentally. When the sewing is done she
leaves it with no sense of having accom
plished anything except that.
This mental laziness Is the result of a
bad habit, that is all; the mind is happier
when It Is occupied If she but knew it. If
she had only learned to "commune with
herself during those long hours when she
is alone, she would have found the silence
not lonely, but full of augg. S'.lon, and the
work not tiresome, hot restful, brie would
have seHeii on the last button and folded
up the last garment with u sense of re
ireshment instead of Weariness.
Few women consistently follow out a
train of thuught and arrive at a logical
louclusion. They dream, they ruminate,
they drift, but they do not actually think.
Happy Is the woman whose mind U to
stored with poetry that aa she sews she
may converse with the great spirits of all
time. Happy is the woman and happy la
the household of which she Is the head, for
she is sure to be serene, self poised and
full of wise thoughts.

Was a child hla motner taught him chapter
after chapter of the Bible. The sonorous
passages of that mighty book attuned his
ear for beautiful and dignified speech and
gave him a training that proved Inval
uable. "What are you doltm? I'un hlng holes
In piece!! of clofTi and sewing them up '
again"'' jocularly queried a husband as j
he came home and found his wife sewing.
"I am tiding over the . windy h'.lls of
Lyonnesse with King Arthur," she an
swered, smiling.
May more of us be able to make a like
