of the fall arid winter season and the
(saving advantages reach 'far over Into
the realm of the sensational
In commenting on the sale Mr. J. I
Orktn said: "The unfavorable weather
of the past six weeks Is to . blame.
Iteallttng the fact we ate the greatest
distributers In. the middle west for wom
en's and misses' fine ready-to-wear we
anticipated a big fall and winter season
ahd bought lavishly.
"Although the sales for the season to
data far exceed those of a year ago, our
stocks are much larger than they should
be at this time and that's the reason for
this great price reduction.
"Our entire stock of women's high
class suits with dresses, wraps, gowns
Included, th most beautiful and most
varied assortment of distinctive, Indi

shown.
'They're the very latest Ideas that
foreshadow the style tendencies and
which help to fix them, many or them
are garments so far In advance of the
season's styles thnt you will not see their
duplicates for months to come.
"There's a suit, wrap, or dress for
every occasion, street wear, theater, re

the saving Is about half the original

Nebraska's 1913
More Money
That while Nebraska's crops, measured
by the hundredweight -or In bushels, do
not make as big a showing as last year,
measured In' dollars nnd cents, they, are
larger. Is "the finding of The Twentieth
Century Farmer, based on figures Just
complied. It finds reinforcement, too. In

the loans . of the state banks liavo , In

and deposits have Increased 12?G3,S1J.6I.
The majority of the stock In the 714 state
banks of Nebraska Is owned by farmers.
The tlS.7G9.S12.Cf Increase In deposits
means so many, dollars and cents have
been retained by their possessors from
the output of our fields and farms, for
the results come mainly from agriculture.

"The 1913 corn crop In tho states of Ne
braska, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas, ac
cording .to Ihe best government andstato

A flood, Bitil nnd tJood Reason.
"The growing season of 1913 was divided
Into three periods. From early spring up
to the first of July conditions were ideal.
During this period the wheat, crop In the
four states was matured and exceeded
tho season of 1912 by 17.743,000 bushels.
During this same period the first cutting
of alfalfa was harvested, yielding from
60 to 100 per cent greater output than

PLAY FOR LABOR'S CAUSE
Local Men and Women Give "The
Silver Lining" at Brandeis.
UNUSUALLY WELL PRESENTED
Singed Under Direction of Sidney
Povrell, Who Tnke tiemdtnsr
Part Reside Miss Grace
1 Morphy Proves Star.
"The Silver Lining," staged by home
talent as a benefit affair for the new
labor temple In Omaha, although It drew
less than half a house at the Brandeis
last night, deserved as fuit a nouse aa
many a professional troupe that has been
presented here.
The horrors of labor strikes in the steel
mills are brought out. Th-owner Is liv
ing In luxury because he stole the patent
that, has made the wcceesj'of, the business
possible. Ills daughter1 scorns the love
of Reuben Warner, the superintendent,
because, as. ahe reminds him, he "Is one,
of her father's workmen." It develops
that he Is .the Inventor of the very patent
that has mado her father. Andrew
Knowltop, a wealthy factory owner.
'arner comes to his own and saves the
plant, also 'he eventually wlrfs the lovo
of (he daughter, Margaretf after the
tactics of Ralph Standlsh, the new part
ner, in the mill, have failed and after
Standlsh fdr hts harsh dealing with the
men has had the engagement ring flung
Into his face by the fiery Margaret.
Mlaa MorfiB Makes Hit,
The play was staged undor the personal
direction of Sidney K; Powell, a part of
whose dramatic class made up the cast
of character). Some of these, showed ex
ceptional ability and careful training.
Miss O race" Morphy as "Cinders" was the
side-rending Bowery apparition of the
evening. Fouhd as an Infant on a cinder
heap putslde tho factory, she "Just
growed" In the factory, and her ready
gab and perpetual chewing and drawing
of her gumi'her saucy swish of her tat
tered skirts, these and'her homely ad
vice and a thousand little effects mads
her appearance In demand.
Sidney PoWell as Standlsh carried well
tha part of the heartless factory boss
with cruelty' written In every Use of his
dandy's features. Besides earning his
dlfficttH villain's part, Mr. Powell had
to kef In ind constantly the direction
of the home talent troup, thus carrying
tha whole- burden of tha evening's event
on 111 shoulders.
Miss Kdtth &tndevcn as Margaret
Knowlton brought charm and dignity to
the setting. Her grace of manner and
charm of features carried treat weight,
and aa a prise worthy the contention of
tho men who. sought her hand sho carried
her part well.
The Hero's rrt. i
Charles It. Docherty as Reuben I
Warner, the hero of the play, brought all
the seriousness of features and gravity i
of manner with him that was necessary i
to carry the Impression. Sout-fllled with'
the heartache of the laboring people, he.
bore the marks on his every reatups as
he strove to do the work of trusted su-
perlntendent of Mr, Knowlton, and at tho '
same time tried to lift the struggling
laborers out of the starvation wage con
ditions. Anna Madsen as Nell, the factory at
tache who was no longtr any use to the
plant because of an accident In which
she was hurt, limped well through her
difficult part Old Bentel, who had been
fifty years In factory work told the wholo
story In his face and drooping- shoulders.
James Blair as Swart,, the strike leader,
acted well the part of the flre-eatlns
leader of oppressed labor- Jack Mulvi
hill, as Mr. Fletcher, clerk and "most
anything" around Mr. Knowlton's house,
portrayed well the skeptical old bachelor
with more sense than his associates gave
him credit for
Polly Fletcher and careless, Irresponsi
ble Bob Appleton, In their little love
scene, took off some of the seriousness
of the play and gave the audience time oc
casionally to get their nerves collected
when the strain of the strike agitation
grew heavl
Kvelyn McCaffery as Julia. Alton i
Dollnsky as Joe Barrett. Georee Comp- '
ton as Paterao. and David Washburn a j

their respective places In the little drama,

the plot.
