Gerald Rowan "Every bullet baa Its billet." sans a poet Ions ago, but soma bullets find their mission ends In love and not In woa. For example, look at all tha bullets that didn't hit Captain Arthur Carmk-hael aa he and Teddy charged up San Juan hill. Suppose any one of them had bit him In a place other than tha fleshy part of tha lee; above the knee what might have happened' la Ehrensteln! But the hurtling bullets missed him as they flew In furious whirl, and ha was eared to bring a throne to tha sweetest little girl. To be aura, he got the girl ha wanted, and tha credit Well, perhaps Harold McGrath ought to have the credit, after all. Ha has made considerable Improvement In this matter of stealing Infanta of royal birth aad concealing them until later on In Ufa, when they are auddenly restored through tha mlnlatration of noma com mon person from England or America. Balfe began It, when he awtped the dear little daughter of tha count, and had her sing about dreaming of dwelling within marble halls; Verdi muddled It up dread fully, because ae could not control tha hasty temper of the Contl dl Luna, and the aad taking off of both Leonora aad Man rtco followed; Anthony 'Ope 'Awktna man aged tha matur a trifle better, when he sent out Rudolph Raaaendyll to aave tha throne of Run tenia, and his plan was slightly Improved upon when George Barr McCutcbeon drafted a Lorry G ren tal I to prevent tha war between Maura tama and Lusltania or was tt between the Olympic and the Kronprlnxen Lulse? and wed with Princess Tteve, just to show the world what a real American could do If ha turned hla hand to being a king. And then there was tha Inspired genius that showed us that "The king of Kronberg la not tha king of Kronbarg, and ret the king of Kronbarg Uvea:" And tha Castles did a pretty fair Job of adjust ing hochwohlgebornen affairs when they humbled the pride of Jeateo. And others have tried H at various times. But none of these aver succeeded as did Harold McGrath, for ha elevated a goose girl to a ducal palace, with aa Immediate prospect of being removed ax once to'a kingly throne aa queen-consort of tha man aba really loved, all the while secur lrtg for the American diplomat tha one girt ha could ever love, although aha wasn't quite a princess; aba had ta be Just a countess, for the law '"that never I I II SPECIAL! 50c Wash (jijfM Ties, 35c; 4R 3 lor $1,00 Jf A Suit Opportunity Young Men's and Men's Suits $14.75 Our clothing buyer who is now in the New York market placing his fall orders had an opportunity to "pick up" 520 Men's Spring Suits at a con siderable price concession, The suits have been on display for several days in our Farnam Street windows and will go on sale here Saturday morning.

Tha law, not tha tart that Hlldegarde wasn't a princess, for she la a very eharmlnc young woman, and we are all right glad that she cams to America to live among us. Also, It'a lucky for President Teft that tha play wasn't produced In every theater In Massachusetts on Monday. If It had been, the talk ot good old Teddy and tbe Hough Riders and Ban Juan hill would surely have decided the day In favor of the colonel, who was only a lieu tenant colonel at that time. Aa to the play Its story follows the story of the book very closely, and as the press agent says everybody has read the book. It's no use In repealing It here. Tha company works with energy to give life to tha heroic commonplaces with which tbe dialogue abounds, -and the varioue theatrical situations that make up the action of the play. It la not the fault of any one in the company that tha audience at tha Brandels last night was not moved to enthusiasm. Miss Ack erman Is a beautiful girl, and acta her role amailngly well; Miss Nelson Is also pretty and capable, and worthy to be either a princess or the wife ot an American diplomat. Maria Van has a comedy role that she makes much of. Among tha long role of men In the com pany. Mr. Iye wis and Mr. Rowan deserve commendation tor well enacted roles. The play ia sumptuously stsged; the scenery being massive and appropriate and beautiful. The engagement ends on Saturday night, a matinee being played on Saturday afternoon. Loral Katea af the alaae.

Next week the bill will be "The New Boy." All tbe members of Pouchot's flying ballet at the Orpheum this week are German girls and received their lnetruc- tlon at the Hoyal Ballet trhool In Ber lin. In speaking of the art of "flying." Mile. Baumler eeld": "The real art con sists la not whirling aimlessly around. Attach any untrained person to a wire and he danglea helpleesly. We have been taught bow to control our motions when our feet sre off the floor, and that Is the main thing, it la done by noiotina the toes, Just as In ballet dancing, aave that you step on the air and not on the floor. The way one places her leg or foot gov erns her movements, and If you will wauh closely you will notice that the foot ads as a rudder and steers us wben aloft. 'Of course the wires are handled by men and machinery and tha men are taught Just how to handle us. but at the same time we have to govern our own aerial movements abaolutely. The long fltSGta over the audience to the baieonv are all controlled by our foot movements. It tskea a long tune to achieve results, because you have only your own sense of feeling to gutue you. That's why aerial work Is so hard and so few Indulge la it." Last Friday night's amateur contest at the Gayety waa such a auccess In the way of creating new laugna that a simi lar, though funnier, amateur contest wui be staged tonight directly after the per formance of "Tha College Glria," which, by the way, ta the laat of the Gayety'a regular season bookings.

CARTERCARS DAMAGED ' WHEN RATSGNAW WIRES Fire, supposed to have been started by rats gnawing at electric, wires In the ele vator shaft, caused a Ids of about 16. 900 worth of property last night In tha Car tercar building, liU Fa . nam street, which Is owned by W. K. Foshler, Nebraska Cartercar agent. The largest part of the damage will be occasioned to eighteen automobiles, which were damaged by water. It is thought that SIW each will cover tha loaa from tbla source, however. One machine stored In tha basement worth about 11,500. was entirely destroyed and another on tha first floor damaged to tbe extent of about SMO. Tha loaa to the building is estimated at tlM). On tha third floor was stored about 11.000 worth of. the household effects of Rob ert Hlnckel, loading Inspector for the Burlington. This property was damaged about two and is fully Insured, as waa all of the other property. All of the cars In the building were the personal property of Mr. Foihler, the agent, and he says they were fully In sured. The fire had a good start when discovered. BULL ELRS FIGHT FOR BLOOD Pleiareaejae Scrap Viewed aa Wroalu Moaatalaa at Loaa Raaae. s The home of Dave Tween on the West side. Lander, Wyo, Is quarantined for scarlet fever, but that does not prevent Tweed from seeing everything that hap pens In the town and surrounding gaun try. Tweed owns a powerful field thus. After breakfast he began to take In the sights, as uaual. With his glas he swept the horizon to the north, south, east and weat. After a view of the cardinal points of the cotnpaas without seeing anything of note.be began on the quarters. Away to the southeast an the side of Table mountain some moving objects attracted his attention. Bringing the glass to a focus he saw the objects were elk, eight of them, and that waa a vio lent corn-motion In the family. Two large bulla were engaged In battle, probably for the presidency of the herd, while the rows stood s round and watched tbe com bat. For ten minutes the fight waa terrific. The animal reared and plunged at each other with lowered antlers and tore around at a fearful rate. Time and again they were thrown to their knees, and arose to renew the mad rushes. After the fight tbe victor stood over the defeated elk for a few seconds and then walked slowly away. The defeated bull scrambled to hla feet and Joined the others In tbe search for food and the incident waa closed. Tweed is very likely the only man who ever witnessed a bull elk fight through a field glass. The glass revealed three other elk on Table mountain some dis tance from the scene of combat. Swing, ing the class northward along the range Tweed saw a bunch of seventeen elk browsing on the side of 8quaw Creek canen. near tbe timber Unev-Cbeyenna Leader. Dodge County Sheriff Raids Crowell Saloon FREMONT, Neb.. May l- Special Tel egram.)

DOLLAR A YEAR FOR PEANUTS How Mr. Geohrr tares Saiall fhaace 'frona the Poeketa af the (rowans. Every American, regardless of age, sex or income, spent tl.CS for peanuts last year. Aa some, the present writer In cluded, did not buy sny peanuta at all, more or leas people must have apent a great deal more. At all events, ths peanut bill of thla rotintry for the laat twelve montha waa tl'S.000.000. The con sumer paid that. To take the other side of the industry, one peanut man down In Virginia, who waa a little farmer nine yeara ago, la now worth nearly T.,0.0U1. Every cent of It waa made out of peanuts. Thla Vir ginian has now one of tha largeat and finest plants In the south. Walnuta may carry off the palm among nuta, if the vote of epicures Is taken, but the peanut Is undoubtedly the most generally popular nut there la. The vast trade In It la not generally realised, nor that of recent years tha hard labor In planting, picking and threshing peanuts Is being almost entirely eliminated. Ma chinery is steadily replacing the Yamtltar negro on tha peanut farms. There are garurplows for breaking the ground, for sowing, for sorting and cleaning ca most complicated process), and now there haa come Into use a machine for burrowing Into the ground and digging up the tooth some "goobers." With all this mechanical evolution Vir ginia 'Is beginning to lose her historic supremacy as the peanut state. She atlll leads, but only by a narrow margin. Oklahoma and Texas, with large capital Invested and fine plants set up, are stead ily wresting her honors from her. Out in these states of the southwest as much as 1,000 acres are laid down In peanuts at one time, yielding with expert management 30H.O00 bushels. Tha peanut la the typical American nut, but it has many rivals. Something like tl2.O99.00O worth of nuts come Into this country a year. Of foreign nuts the wal nut la the "top notcher" among these nuts Imported. I'p to the end ot August of tbla year t2.W0.OM worth of walnuts had come In, despite enormous advances la tbe culture of the Persian, or English, walnut in California. The Imported nuta represented 11.000,090 pounds, the Callfornlan nuta 11.000.ona. Cocoanuts come next on the list of these foreign auts. The nuta In the shell to talled only Jl,01i,68, but the cocoanut meat, for tha moat part ahredded, dedi cated or otberwlae prepared, brought tha figure up to R.1M.U1. As ths whole nuts enter duty free, no record of their weight Is kept, but of tha unprepared meat the prodigious quan tity of .4t.M pounds was Imported. That America ta not losing Its tasta for any kind of nuts, but rather liking them mora and mora, la proved by tha circumstance that notwithstanding the rapidly augmenting domeatle production the Imports do not tall off at all. Nearly tl.600,000 worth of almonds cams In laat year (despite the fart that the California crop was fully that value), and close to 11,000.01 worth of Brasll nuts. A great delicacy that reaches the big cities along with these latter Is the cream nut, probably the moat "exclusive" of all note. These are also known aa paradlaa nuta They are fine of taste and high priced. Pecans are grown In twenty-three states, Texas, with a total production of approximately 2.000,000 pounds a year, running far ahead of any other stats, three times the quantity. IMilaiana comes next, and Mississippi grows a good many. Filberts are a very popular Imported nut. This country gets about 1600,000 worth ot them yearly. New York American.
