In Omaha the cqoler weather of the week brought out a much more en couraging attendance at the theaters and, wjth the opening of the .American last night, the season may be said to be 1 fair y launched. The Invasion of Omaha ' by a veritable troop of musical comedies , during the coming week Is going to maks ; It a little difficult for the pne-nlshters to determine Just what course to pursue. As for the one that comes to the Bran de!s tonight, It offers attractions that are hard to resist, and the one that comes on Tuesday night presents an array of talent such as hasn't been oecn together In a long, long time. The company that Is presenting "The Canry Shop" Is gotten together for the purpose of being -atab-!shtd as a fixture at the new Gaiety theater In San Francisco, and ts spending Its time enroute by delighting such multi tudes as have the opportunity to see It Now. -don't show up on Thursday morn ing and say If you had known it was such a good show you'd have gone, for here you have fair warning.

Tho openngr-jicene, a "Pit Emporium," show Ins many beautiful dogs and. cats, is not only a distinct novelty, but so daring and picturesque as to attract -the. attention Of prominent producers, who have declared It to be the best example of the "truly unusual.''
