the:'rhythm of the music and song.
A.- S. Tonder, E. D. Miller. E. A.
Edcluou, C M. Wylcoff and W. F.
Sandil, who in Tartarrax's day mi$ht
have been known as ' Thunder Tailj"
and "Speckled Dream," evinced their
ability to keep up the warior dance
with knees drawn directly beneath
their chins at evtry step. A. H. Cain,
jr., L. T. Peterson, R. H. Walker and
F. H. Heintz twirled scalping knives
in perfect harmony with the riotous
dance, Russell Tetard, E. M. Finken
stein, W. W. Dennis, A. V. Edholm
and F. C. Eckdaht, came pirouetteing
in this savage pow-wow, just like real
dog-eating, scalp-lifting savages of
the days before Columbus.
Thus the merry 'song and dance
went on. Periodically King Tartarrax
sent his servant, "Jess Willard," to
the bank of the river to look for the
royal barge in which he was momen
tarily expecting his bride-to-be.
Cremo, the beautiful. "Jess Willard,"
the servant was none other, thin L.
N. Bunee, carrying on his small
shoulder the great sword of King
Tartarrax, and wearing a boxing
glove on his left hand, while the huge
rawhide shield of hl lord dangled
awkwardly about the knees of the
little bodyguard. ' . '
Repeatedly Bunce ran to the bank
. of the river to peer up and down the
stream for the coming of Cremo. At
last the precious and costly barge
annears. Cremo seated in luxury in
i,m kar in alt tha maarnlfieenci of
Cleopatra herself!
"Ah, the fair Cremo, roars the
king as he rushes forward to embrace
her. And when the spectators wera
agog for the first glimpse of the
young beauty, out stepped none other
than the tall angular form of Stanley
Conover, dressed in the rich garb of
an Indian princess, who is to becom
Queen of Quivers.
In m moment a runner, Kenneth
Reed, dashed in over the hills and
threw himself at the feet of the king.
He declared he had seen a wonderful
sight, great men mounted on dogs
bigger than any the king ever ate,
men with coal scuttles on their heads,
he declared were riding toward the
""Sout this time, Coronado M l
magnificent, horse appeared it the
head of his little cavalcade of Span
ish cavaliers. William Lawrance as
Coronado, led the cavalcade of sturdy
jrQopers of the working crew in Span
ish costume. Charles R. Dochery, as
Holly ' Hock, the guardian of the
"State Hysterical society," rushed for
ward and stopped the cavalry to keep
history straight. He consulted his
records to determine whether he
could let Coronado appear at this
time unon the stage of history, and
having" found that this was the time
and place and hour for this Spanish
adventurer to appear he welcomed
Soon Cotonado, the dashing Span
iard, begins to make love- to Cremo
-and King lartarrax is not pleased.
Still he tolerates him, while Coronado
sings a number of songs.
So the halls rang with the chorus of
Coronado's song:
"Oh, there's nothing- too rooo for Coronado)
Then' nothlnt too good for mo. '
,i Oh, I used to throw th Suit,
Back in Spain when I wea full,
AnS there's nothing too food for me."
Frank Latenscr, as Delmonico, the
royal chef, broke, unannounced upon
the scene and complained bitterly of
the squaws who, hang around the
kitchen, the manner in which they de
vour everything he has and the pe-

euliar tastes they express, which de

ulous style. '
Delmonico also has some other
grievances. He, too, is sick and tired : heterogeneous

Away he goes into the rollick chor

Oh, you chicken, will I never eee the more."
As no history of Nebraska would be
complete without Logan Fontenetle,
this same Logan appears on the scene
now, slowly walking toward the stage.
Rex Mourhouse took the part, and
when properly attired in leather scout
suit, and equipped with a long mua
iled rifle or musket, he made a very
creditable Koutenelle.. Again the his
torical genius rushed out to meet him,
cocked his glasses to the proper angle,
pulled down his vest and inquired the
name of the intruder. Finding it is
too early in history for Fontenelle to
appear, he sent him away and reiusea
to let him stay on the scene. Several
times Fontenelle seeks to butt into
the performance, but each time is sent
uTi. nti1 at lost hi mfflei and is

suited his.book and found that the
time is ripe for bis coming. On one
occasion he cairte bearing a diminu
tive . Fontenelle hotel on his back.
Thus Fontenelle is admitted to the
group ot merry-
jr., was the sailor, Russell Tetard,
the soldier; T. B. Dysart, the Indian;
Herbert Wing, the farmer, and C.
A. Health the blacksmith, and all
maintained their positions with such
perfect immobility that many went
all through the season's shows be
lieving the whole tableau was but a
huge frame painting, with the ad
vantages of clever light effects.
In all this elaborate production, a
large working crew is required. Some
one had to start the "Zepplin" on its
way. Some one had to keep up the
motion of the huge churn that
churned all visitors together and
moulded them into loyal knights.
Someone had to draw the curtains
back to let the ox team through.
Someone had to yoke and unyoke
the oxen, and a big force of husky
and willing workers was required.
And here is the list of those workers,
