CLOSE ON SATURDAYS
offices of all the roads will close earh
Saturday afternoon at t o'rlock, up to
and including Saturday. Brptember 11.
During the porlod parties going away
Pntiirdaya will be able to buy their tick
ets and make their sleeping car reser
vations at the depot ticket offices.
Taaaenger men of the roads doing busi
ness In Omaha havs finally gotien 'o
grther on the matter of closing the city
ticket of fires nsturdsy afternoons during
the warm period of this summer. Be
ing "Lord" Harcourt while he wm
tripping the light fantastls In the
Ltgh spots of Omaha'a moat elite
society? If not, you are unlikely to
Lave that chance again eoon, for be
vaa tripped himself elsewhere.
Of courM. hs did not pom as s ial
lord, although h. took the till balaowed
on him by feminine admirers without
protest, and let Ma Intimates rail him
"Oeorg.." The delightful Mr. Harcourt
blew into Omaha aa the dancing partnr
ot Ulss Joan Sawyer, uho was on tha
bill for tba olosing week of the Orpb.um.
but because ot Illness was not able to
dance at all performances. Inability to
perform because of Mies Sawyer's illness
left him with leisure time on hla hands,
Through Mlsa Sawyer he had become ac
quainted with the XV hit mores, who enter
tslned them at supper at the Kontenella,
alons; with Frank Haskell, one evening
when the latter was the envied of all for
his apparent monopoly ot Mlsa Hawyer'e
favors. The lord's social circle waa ex
tended gradually to Include other con
cental spirits, and "bli lordship" lingered
In Omaha after Miss Sawyer took her
departure. He dallied at the hotel and
at the exclusive clubs, where his new
made friends went good (or him and at
vrgnt request consented to show some
specially prirlleged a ' few of the new
tape.
IIm CIsmm at tbe Clefc.
Before anyone knew It. Harcourt was
hobllna- 'regular classes) out at the
Country dub, and turned it almost Into
a professional dancing academy, exacting
the modest earn of S3 for a half-hour
lesson. At that moment It looked aa If
"hla lordship" was on the hlgA road to
tloriea, but he waa a good apender, too.
It waa wine suppers nearly every night,
nd before long he did not seem able to
keep up with the pace,
"No, I can't say that Harcourt waa re
quested to vacate," said a Country club
man, but I think he waa led to under
stand that If he wanted to give dancing
lessons for pay he would have to hire a
hall. Tea, hs ran quits a little bill, but
It's beenr paid, -1 guess our club folks
have learned a lesson that will do them
good If It prevents a repetition,"
The hotel people where Harcourt
stopped Insist that he paid up In full be
fore hs checked out, ss did also one or
two persons 1 friends who had "accom
modated" him. ' '
Haven't any complaint."' said ene.
'Ha was a good sport, though hs did go
soma. Hs doesn't owe me a' cetit Be
fore he left he said he had gotten a re
mlttsncs from down esst."
