OTHERS CATCH UP ON SLEEP By MRI.MFK IA Frhrsirr M. The world of fashion hsa met the danger of contagion in different ways at different times It would seem. That Inveterate recounter of old parlor stories. Boccaccio, tells us that the first families of medieval Italy took to the hllla and passed their time In narration and dis course while the plague raged through the cities. On the other hand in England, while the black death waa wiping out alike the population of hovel and palace, that arrlbhllng old gossip, Fandys, tells ua that never was the gay world more gay, or the frivolous so frivolous. Belles and merry matrons went to balls, danced with the beaux often to be seised and die in the retiring-room. Milder t'oataale Here. In the milder contagion ' which haa struck ua thla winter, people seem to reatlie they are about aa aafe in one place aa another, and there are no panics and wild rushes to get away. Quite unlike the merry roysters of Kng land, aoclety growa duller and mora quiet. Affair after affair, especially those of the younger set, are called off. At an affair, planned for thla aternoon, seven girls were kept at home by their mothers and no party consequently.' Some of the girls aay they are going (o take up music during the dull time, another la practicing and inventing a few unique dance steps, another la read ing French again, and it ia said of a certain handsome matron that aha ia undergoing a wonderful face treatment from which she wilt reappear more beau tlful than ever. Of course, there are not a few who will retrieve on sleep, get a good rent and catch up on looks the old saying of the ill wind proving true sllll. Lincoln Bay Event.

An amateur, performance, of .much In terest Is to .be given at the Brandeia theater " this . afternoon and', " thla evening, . when the students o,f the dra matlo department of the Omaha Conser vatory of Music will ' present 'Mile stones," the play by Messra: .McClelland and Knoblauch. whk:h created so to uch interest a seaaon or two ago. The theme of the play haa to do' with the clash of mind between the young folks and their elders, the quality of receptivity to new ideas being the dominant note. But through it all runs one note that is al ways old and always new, that of love. It ia timed in . twenty-year periods, the first being in 1866, the second in 1888, and the third in 1903. Much of curious Inter est will be found in the reproduction ot the atmosphere ot the period, the for gotten costumes and customs of 116 bringing a new light to the young folka of today on the conditions that sur rounded their grandparents, while the fathera and mothers can readily recall the things ot 1885 aa experiences of pleas ure. The company that presents the play la made up of young people who have or are attending the Central High, Crelgh- ton, or one ot the other local schools.

The art exhibition assembled by the local Fine Arts society at the Hotel FonUnelle this week waa pronounced one of the finest collections ever brought together, by Raymond Wyer, director o the Hackley art galleries at Muskegon. Mich., who arrived yesterday. "It la disgrace It is a crying shame that this gallery Is not thronged with people. Tod Omahan have no conception of ths beauty and Irapresslveness of thla col lection. Any msn, woman or child who has the quarter to spend and doesn't visit this art collection should be ashamed to hold up his head," exclaimed he. vehemently. Wyer Is an English man and came here for a series of art lecturea. Compliments the W o m p The art director paid Omaha women a fine compliment when he commented on the taste and discrimination with which the paintlnga had been hung. "I couldn't have done better, myself," ha declared. Members of the Fine Arts society are repeating the atory of aia incident of Punday. when the public was admitted free. Two little tots, a brother and sister. had spent hours at the exhibit, enrap tured of the pictures. Each had S cents and they were determined to caat a vote for the picture they liked the best. With rare artistic appreciation for auch young sters, they decided on the "Karl." by Zorn, acclaimed one of the finest paint ings of the collection. When Mrs. George Prim told the little mites no votes were being accepted for thla painting as it was not for sale, the girl puckered up her face and looked on the point of tears, ao keen waa her dis appointment. Votea Any Way. Never mind, sis! If we can't have the lovely girl we'll vote for the sad young man, comforted the little lad, potntl to "The Discouraged Art Student Adams, and the joint vote waa caat for the Adams painting. Another member of the society who had watched and Iiatened to the two kiddies, wiped a tear from her eya and went directly to the voting desk and bought twenty votea for the same paint ing. Other women to whom the story waa told were also moved to vote for the Adams picture In order that the painting may be kept In Omaha, for the two little onea. The proceeds of the voting con test will be used to purchase the moat popular painting. , As a result of the impetug given to votea for thla picture, the Adama paint ing now stands In the lead in popularity.
