tto m y mivm nun . j wt'Ain n. B randeis Theatre Announcement HE management takes pleasure in announcing that all first PT class attractions are now playing the Brandeis Theatre. Never in the history of Omaha Theatricals has the public been offered as , splendid attractions as during this season, and we desire theatre goers to appreciate the fact that they must support these offerings to the fullest extent in order that we may book as high class attractions the following season as will positively appear here this year. If, however, the public fails to patronize this season's offerings to the extent they should, then the booking syndicates of the east will refuse to send to Omaha the same splendid line of attractions next season as they are doing at present and you the public will have no one but yourselves to blame for the class of attractions you will receive in the future.
