'Bad news from Omaha!"
"What Is It, what Is It?" whispered
Everett Buckingham nnd tho rest of the
Ak-Sar-Ben governors at St. Louis when
Secretary Dad Weaver lined them up ln
the hotel and with n long face, remarked
"fad news."
"What la It? we're tired of waiting,"
they Insisted.
"We have the 1.800 members of Ak-Sar-
Ben for the opening night," was what
Dad Weaver read from the telegram.
And then and there Everett Bucking-
bam, president of Ak-Sar-Ben let out of
his lungs such a Comanche yell that tha
Bt. loulslans gathered In the hotel,
thought tho Indians of the Original
Louisiana Purchase had returned.
Long has Samson had his heart set on
getting a membership of 1.60 for tho
opening night of Initiation performance
at the Den. The opening night is to
morrow (Monday) evening, June 1. Things
looked bad when Samson went to St.
Louis to visit the Pageant and Masque.
There were then something like 1,475 mem-
bers.
Wllllnk WorUern nt Home.
On the way to St. Louis Dad Weaver
scratched his head, and wondered whether
the hustling committee at home would
drag many members while he was away.
"When tho cat Is awny," mused Weaver,
and several times he was on the' point
ot taking tliH next train back. For had
he not promised himself and the wholn
town that he Would have l.W) members
for tho opening night at tha 7Jen? And
was not tho opening night only a few
lays awny?
But while Samson scratched bis head
and "blbblcd" about tho membership, tho
cat was not wholly awny.
Back at home In tho office at 1717 Doug-
as street a surprise was browing. Mlsi
Mnloney, tho efficient office gltnirBam-
son, was worjilng her wits.
Scarcely had tho St. Louis train swung
out of the yards with a final "toot, toot"
than Mlsa Malnncy telephoned to every
member of the hustlers' committee.
Worked n .Surprise.
"The boss is out of town," she shouted
excitedly. "Now won't you all Just work
harder than you ever did in your lives?
Wo Just must get this memberahlp up to
1,600 boforo he gets back, to surprise him."
"3ure," came tho ready answer from
several.
Oh, but it wasn't so easy for Miss
Moloney. Some of tho hustlers she found
readily. Others wore out playing golf.
Others were tending to their own busi
ness, for oven members of the hustling
commlttoo have to make a living between
time.
So It took the girl hours to get all of
them on the phone. She was tired when
she got through. But sho got the promise
of nil of them that they would get Into
the harness and work hard. -
Thus from Wednesday night to Friday
noon they tolled nnd at that time dragged
In 125 new members. Miss Maloney kept
tab. When the 125th name arrived; sho
tallied ,up.
Sixteen hundred even was tha result.
She wired Samson nt St, Louis at once.
So Monday evening the 1.C00 aro to be
led to slaughter at the Den when the first
rerformanco of tho year will take place.

Omaha Youngsters
Leave Home, Lured
By Martial Strains
Like the Pled Piper of Hamlin, the mar
tial music of yesterday's memorial dem
onstrations lured Omaha youngsters from
their homes. The police yesterday were

Craig of Florence, left home early in the

chase until Officer Noah Thomas found
her at Twenty-fourth and Ames and sent

selves were recovered by their parents

action, and except for the orgilriat com
plaint, no other report was made at
headquarters.
All of the runaways are under 7 years
of age.
