the expedient of endowment; some mil

purpos of discouraging any, but to rait

not altogether new, and that It baa had
some concrete consideration. Th pub
licly-endowed theater Is scarcely possible;

even wer It poastbl under th law. Th
"municipal" theater ha scarcely emerged
from th has of dreamland, auch efforts
a hav been mad In this direction not
being sufficiently vxtenslv to establish

Always, however, the unavoidable ques
tion of money arises, and this has not
as yet been met In a satisfactory manner.

Our Program This Week Is Varied,
But Every Picture Good You'll Like Them All.
SUNDAY and IVIOIMDAY
We Present For Your Approval
Earl Williams and Anita Stewart
"The Sins of Mothers"
One of the very best features Vitagraph has ever
made, a picture bubbling over with good things from
start to finish; furthermore, a production that is built
along new and novel lines.
Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday
We offer our much heralded and widely advertised
production of
Theda Bara
IN
"Carmen"
MIrs Bara, who stands supremely alone and unrivaled si The
Vampire Woman of the Screen, was formerly leading lady of the
noted Theater Antoine, Paris, and is naturally fitted by birth and
temperament to portray the part of the saucy Spanish flirt, while the
Fox production of thin picture has no prototype anywhere on earth
in sumptuous beauty and magnitude, scenic investiture, costumes,
nd experienced and painstaking treatment. Entire Spanish cities,
castles, palaces, etc., were built over night to breathe the rue spirit
of ancient picturesque Spain, the home of legend and romance.
We also call your attention to the treatment this production will
receive at our hands. The Strand orchestra will be augmented for
the occasion, excerpts from the opera will be sung by several of
Omaha's leading soloists, a special Spanish stage setting prepared,
the ushers dressed as Spanish maidens, so that the true atmosphere
of sunny Spain will hold forth.
Friday and Saturday
We Present
Edmund Breese
"The Song of the Wage Slave"
A Modern Society Problem Play of Much Interest
and Dramatic Intensity.
Come down expecting to see a good feature evy
