The rate of that wonderful enchanted
realm, Moonland. were opened last night
and editors from southwestern Iowa, as
special Kuesta of the Knlghta of the Pull
Moon, were flven the opportunity to aee
some of Ita wonders. Several hundred of
the knights and a sufficient number of
their friends to fill the ground floor seats
of the Auditorium building enjoyed the
same privilege. That they were sur
prised, as well as delighted, was evi
denced by the demonstrative enthusiasm
that frequently reached the boiling point
Among the especially honored and wel
comed guests were Mayor P&hlman and
about fifty Ak-Sar-Ben worker from
Omaha and South Omaha. They were o
well pleased with the show and the whole
evening' experience that thirty of them
asked for membership tickets In addition
to the fifty who had previously pur
chased tickets. At the end of the In
itiatory ceremonies, when the culprits ao
cused of stealing the king treasure,
the big Swede cook, Hulda, had been
properly tortured for their crimes. Mayor
Dahlman was called forward and made
a speech and sang a song.
Appi-erlalloa by Pahlataa.
The speech was an appreciative ex
pression of the pleasure enjoyed, and In
the name of the Omaha and South Omaha
men ha expressed the sentiment that the
show was the best they had ever seen
and measured up with everything Sam
son had evolved In the Ak-Sar-Bcn fes
tivities. The show was keenly appreciated and
the encores were so frequent that if wae
almost 11 o'clock before the critical stages
of the Initiations were reached. The stage
settings met the fullest approval and ex
cited real surprise. When the lights were
turned on the audience was confronted
by a huge dragon, whose monstrous head
and enormous mouth formed the pro
scenium arch and whose scaly body ex
tended the full length of the building. It
was a unique and wonderful creation of
papier mache, paint and gilt. Huge teeth
descended from the upper Jaw like huge
stalacltes and basilisk eyes gleamed bolw
fully from the wrinkled front. The d:agon
Idea was evolved In the fertile brain of
H P. Schoentgen, who made the working
sketches from which J. C. Johnson and
hie assistants constructed the monster.
They worked all of Thursday night and
all day yesterday without rest to com
plete the task. The last paint was rut
on after o'clock last evening.
f
Refreskmeata.
Tlenty
when the canvas upon which was
painted the dragon's body was lifted at
the end of the show It very properly dis
closed the refreshment tables, whore
sandwiches, coffee and cider were served
to those present.
The next show will be given on Decem
ber 4, when a large portion of the para
phernalia which was not quite ready for
use last night will be ready and a fresh
lot of victims will experience the sur
prise It provides.
