PAGEANT PLEASES
CROWD AT LINCOLN
Scenio Effects of Unusual
Beauty and Musical Features
Especially Pleasing to On
lookers at Spectacle.
(From a Staff Correapondant)
Lincoln, Neb., June 14. (Special
"clcgram.) Pageant of Nebraska
was witnessed tontght by. a crowd of
5,000people.
The forest of real pine trees at the
toot of a scenic mountain made a
beautiful background for the bright
colored and filmy costumes of the
young girls who danced to the dreamy
music of the large orchestra.
The pageant, as depicted by Prof.
H. B. Scot' and his 300 assistants, gives
a history of Nebraska from the time
when the first ox team crossed its
broad, but then unfertile prairies, up
to the present time.
The story, which was written by
Hartley B. Alexander, was beauti
fully carried out, the music effects be
ing especially pleasing.
"Spirit of th. West"
N The pan which was, perhaps, the
most pleasing was that carried out
by Miss Charlotte Whedon as the
Spirit of the West." Another very
impressive part was the interpreta
tion of the Leader of the Voyagers,"
by ,G, H. Walters, The solo parts
were well given and repeatedly en
cored. 1
Miss Fay Lichtcnstciger, ' with a
chorus of fairy children representing
"Golden Hopes," made another im
pressive part cf the pageant. The
dance of the harvest and corn tnaid
.ens was another beautiful sight
The state song, "Nebraska," was
cleverly woven into the production In
several places and finally presented in
chorus as "Nebraska," symbolized by
iiny miss inarv xoung, danced to tne
centef of the stage under the clasped
hands of the north and the south. The
historical characters, including Ed
Pettis as President Jefferson, Sterling
Mutz' as James Monro. R. D. Scon
aa Napoleon, Victor Krause, as Tal-
jeyrana, uuy manners, Joseph
Johnson, John Bnahnell and Dwlght
Thomas, a Senators Douglas, Dixon,
Summer and Seward and Paul Dob
son as President Johnson, were im
pressive and representative of the
speaking parts. . .
The costuming was of the highest
degree of art and of greatest beauty.
Some of the costumes worn by Miss
Charlotte Whedon as "The Spirit of
the West," and "Columbia" and. the
choruses of "fields and prairies," the
"golden hopes" and "corn maidens"
iwere wonderful in their beauty. The
''Indians in a solo of which Mr. Comp
ton Scouts as the chieftain presented
a difficult tencr solo, were savagely
realistic Other remarkable costume
creationt were in the ' choruses of
"grasshoppers" and "birds," the "pio.
neers" and "voyagers,", and all of the.
historical characterization. -' Miss
Alice Howell, as "Liberty," spoke the
eloquent closing line of the presen
tation, -

church. Throughout th nation bells
and whistles re-echoed the summons
to subscribe.
liefore noon tomorrow officials hone
every man in the country who can
subscribe will have done so. At the
closing hour tonight there was no tell
ing where the total mryht lead and
no basis for forecasting the final fig
ures.
Number of Subscriber Large,
It seemed certain, however, that at
least 2,500,000 persons will have sub
scribed before the books are closed
Measuring the total by the number of
Liberty loan buttons which have gone
out from headquarters, the number of
subscribers should exceed 3,000.000.
New York. I'hiladelnhia. Boston
Clevelsnd, Chicago, St. Louis and
Kansas City are the districts from
which will come the great bulk of
subscriptions. There the total num
ber of buttons distributed approaches
3.500,000. New York has taken 1.-
200,000; Philadelphia and Boston have
taken more than 5W,uw each, i o san

000,000.
Subscription Grow Rapidly.
The total reported was $1.843.000..
000. ..These reports were received
afternoon at the treasury. They
showed an increase of nearly $200.-
000,000 in subscription over the pre
vious day's report.
Ihe loan, according to reports re
ceived by treasury officials, is in every
sense a popular one. By far the great
est issues which the bureau of en
graving and printing will be called
upon to turn out will be of the $50
and $100 bonds. For there was a
heavy demand in every section of the
country and in many rural communi
ties. The city of Washington, offi
cials estimate, wii: marshal 30,000 in
dividual subscriptions, most of them
for the $50 and $100 bonds. Employes
of the Treasury department alone
subscribing to the. $50 and $100 bonds,
have taken approximately $450,000.
Many to B Heard From.
Many thousands of banks and trust
companies are yet to be heard from.
This item, it is thought, will swell the
total by many millions. As a rule,
the banks have been inclined to hold
back their tubscriptions until the last
minute or report only a portion of
them. ' ' I
The amount subscribed today, $1,
843,UW,tXlu, represents actual subscrip
tions in the federal reserve banks, ac
companied by the required 2 per cent
of the amount of subscriptions. Offi
cials believe that the reserve banks
will be deluged tomorrow by a flood
of last minute subscriptions.
. There is yet time, however, for the
man or woman who wants a small
bond to get it, officials' said today,
for the small investor is to be favored
above all others and every applica
tions for a small bond it to be grant
ed. In the case of oversubscriptions
this would result in paring down the
larger subscriptions on a proportion
ate basis, as announced by Secretary
McAdoo. '
Bank Open Until Late.
Throughout the country banks and
trust companies are. keeping open till
late tonight to accommodate the last
minute investor. The Treasury de-
psrtment has granted banks permis
sion, in extreme cases, to telegraph
the amount of their subscriptions to
the', reserve banks, telegraphing the 2
per cent of the total at the same time,
but all subscriptions, to be counted,
must reach reserve banks not liter
than noon.
.The exact total of all subscriptions
from every source may not be known
for aome time after the closing of the
books because of the tremendous
amount of clerical work involved in
assembling returns and making tabu,
tations. ,
Expects Omaha Bale to Show Nicely.
"I think the Liberty loan ubscrip
tions in Omaha will show up very
nicely when the total figure are in,"
said R. C Peter of the Liberty loan
committee. We cannot yet tell what
the totals will be, for no one outside
the banks can have any : idea the
volume of work that i before the
.clerks to get these subscriptions
properly recorded, classified .and
tabulated. They are still at it, and
although our report must go in to
the Federal Reserve bank at Kansas
Citv bv night, it is doubtful if we will
be able to give the authentic totals
by that time. We may have to esti
mate a part of the subscriptions.
"On the whole 1 feel that the peo
ple of Omaha have done very well
in tne matter oi suoscripiions. -
The committee met at the Com
mercial club at noon to go over the
work as far as it has gone.
U. P. Employes Subscribe $760,000.
Ud to Wednesday night Union Pa
cific employes had subscribed $750,
000 to the liberty bond fund. It is
understood that employes of other
lines of the system have subscribed
about $500,000. It is asserted that the
$1,500,000 mark will be reached be
fore the end of the week.

OMAHA FAILS TO
GET ANY SUPPORT
AT WASHINGTON
(ContlnoM I nm Paa On.)
the cantonment, the balance of the
work to secure the prize was in the
hands of . . atr Hitchcoc.c and Con
gressman Lobeck of this district.
neither of whom took any action in
tne premises.
Now that Omaha has lost out an
the cantonment has gone to Des
Momcs, business men sav that th
publication of a story in the World
Herald, attributing the selection to
Major Leahy, one mem er of a com
miitee of five, is simply an effort to
Delog the issue and shift the resDonsi.
bility from the shoulders of the owner
ot the paper. -
It is pointed ou that while Des
Moines is a good city, it is almost
entirely lacking in railroad facilities,
having but one trunk line, the Rock
Island, whereas Omaha has half
dozen. Except on branch lines that
connect up with main lines that are
long distances away, there is no pos
sible mea..s of gettirsr into Fu
Moines from either the north or south
and no way of getting in from the
east or west except over one line, on
wnicn there are only two through
trains cacn way, aauy.
Business men unhesitatingly say
mat it senator Hitchcock had co-op
erated with the Omaha committee,
instead of laying down on the job.
this would have been selected as a
site for one of the cantonments. They
said that until the senator and the
congressman from this district failed
to give their support to Omaha, its
chances wee excellent. After this
failure and without a friend at rnnrt
Omaha s chances began tci wane.
Xhese chances waned, not because
Major Leahy was(a passenger aeent
connected with the Rock Island, but
because the congressional reDresent
atives from Omaha were asleep at
me swncn, or else tney aid not of
lieve the securing of a cantonment
was worth the effort of trying for
it, said one prominent business man.
Local Rock Island officials, while
they refuse to permit their names to
be used in interviews, assert that the
success of Des Moines in securing
ine location ot the cantonment was
not so much due to the efforts of
Major Leihy as to the inactivity and
apparent indifference of the Omaha
delegation in congress, it being con
tended that this inactivity and indif
ference gave the locating board the
impression that this city was not an
active competitor for the prate.
Citizens of Crete Mark
Lincoln-Dorchester Cutoff
Crete, Neb.,' June 14. (Special.)
through the efforts of the Commer

Dorchester the automobile highway
now Known as tne i-nicoln-Lrete-Dorchester

lished. Tourists have long needed a
shorter and safer road than the sec
tion of the O. L. D. highway between
T incoln and Dorchester via Milford
That route crosses the railroad many
times, most of them beint? grade
crossings. The L. C D. Cutoff is
much shorter and crosses the rail
road only twice. The Commercial
Clubs have painted the telephone
noles along the highway a broad
band of white and at everv crossroad
the colors, orange and black, are t 'i
ed. They are also sending to all the

Ask Bankers' Aid.
The Omaha finance committee sent
1,000 letters to bankers in the state

same to the Omaha committee. This
action is in pursuance of the authority

cities where there are chapters they
