DID you know that The Pantorium

it last Friday and was truly surprised

her family, so far as she is aware, who
ever appeared on the stage. She is the
daughter of a well-to-do merchant and
was reared in one of the many con
vents in the old Creole city.
Her entrance into the movies was
purely accidental. At soon as she
came out of the convent she became
a great society favorite and was in
duced to pose for tableaux at the Mar
di Gras balls of the famous New Or

wat so striking she was entered in a
beauty contest and won first prize.
In this way she attracted the attention
of one of the Vitagraph directors, Mr.
Sturgeon, and he induced her to enter
the business. That was about eighteen

who has just returned from
v Fashon's Hub says that it is quite as
tonishing, but true nevertheless, that
there are almost as many furs worn
on firth avenue in July as are seen
there in mid-winter. Yes, and the
vogue for summer furs has reached
Omaha, too! Benson & Thome's are
showing charming fur 'creations that
reflect a dashing Parisian chicness
that appeals
to smartly dressed
women. They
come in aristocratic
ermine, white iox,' silver fox, red fox,
Australian opossum, and there are
even capes and scarfs of Hudson seal,
Kolinsky and sable.

Thome's Uptown Shop, 1812 Farnam,
are actually to be cut in twain this
week, so that you'll be able to get a
complete silk suit for the price you
would have to pay for a skirt alone,
There is in silk Jersey a magenta

::Iiti :
With more than 1,400 employes,
700 horses, thirty odd elephants, a
tent area that will cover a lot of over
twelve acres, the Barnam & Bailey
circus,' coming in five special trains,
will arrive in Omaha early this Sun
day morning. The equipment will be
taken at once to iaul and lwenty
first streets. ,
In striving to surpass all previous
achievements in the way of sensa
tional features the management of
the Barnam & Bailey Greatest Show
on Earth, which will exhibit in Omaha
Monday afternoon and night, seems
to have gained that end in the num
ber of distinctly novel circus acts
heralded in the advance couriers. The
Silbon sisters in sensational mid-air
exploits. A troupe of performing
cats, rats and dogs working together
in aboslute harmony. Macaleavey
the startling jumper. The marvelous1
Belfords. a familv of five Risley acro
bats, juggling human beings as if they

famous comic equestrian wno nas
made all Europe laugh at his quaintly
interesting feats of horsemanship.
The imperial Viennese troupe com
prises ten men and women, who have
won the highest praise in European
capitals. These clever artists turn
single, double and triple somersaults
in mid-air while gracefully flying
from one trapeze to another. The
pony and donkey circus is an enter
taining specialty; Orrin and Victoria
Davenport, novel double riding spe
cialty; Fred Derrick, champion
equestrian somersault rider; the Pic

experts: the Dekoes troupe in acro

Summer Amusement for the Multitude
From Hawaii with their native
songs and dances and with the in
struments for which the island is
famed, Hockwald's Hawaiians, who
head the bill at the Empress Theatre
for the first half of the week, start
ing Sunday, promise numbers entire
ly different from any offered before.
They have proven a "hit" everywhere
that they have been and are consid
ered the best of all the native Ha
waiians that have been in this coun
try. The Three Kanes, who style
their act "Striking a balance" present
some clever novelties and also intro
duce some new acrobatic "stunts."
"In a Vaudeville Chop Suey" is the
title of Joe and Vera Miller's num
ber. They do singing, talking, danc
ing and a little acrobatic work in a
fast, snappy manner with lots of
"pep" and "ginger." Vincent and
Carter call themselves "The Amer
ican Maid and the English Chap.
They introduce some late songs and
new and clean comedy. Both have
exceptionally good voices and en
joy pleasing the audience.
Noticeable among the ever growing
crowds at Manawa Park this sum
mer is the large number of out of
town people. So many come in auto
mobiles from farms and from small
towns within a radius of 100 miles
of Omaha and Council Bluffs, that
additional parking space had to be
arranged. More auomobile parties
are visiting this popular resort than
ever before in its history. V
"We find it a pleasant rest troyn
our hot week's work to come in
about once a week," said a merchant
from a town twenty-five miles from
Omaha. Most of these parties bring
picnic luncheons with them, but a
large number also dine at the lake
side cafeteria, appreciating the
splendid food; and the reasonable
rates there.
Close to the city, Lakeview Park,
Omaha's new amusement resort,
combines all the natural attractions,
plus the fresh fragrant coun
try air that is most beneficial to
health and a host of mirth-provOking
attractions are laid out in a manner
that makes them doubly appealing.
The stellar attractions are the mam
moth Palace of Dancing, jack rab-
hit roaster, bathinsr beach, the skat
ing rink and Wonderland. Other ve
hicles for pleasure that are running
a close second are the carrousel;
ferris wheel; penny arcade; and bow

ford family of equestrians.
A feature of this season's per
formance is the 'military band, com
posed of seventy skilled musicians.
As the main doors open one hour be
fore the commencement of the ring
performance, the band will occupy
the center circle during this hour, en
tertaining the assembling crowds with
a select program of popular and
classic music. The menagerie this
season is said to contain the largest
collection of rare wild animals ever
exhibited in one enclosure. A kinder
garten of baby animals is a feature
of this department which appeals par
ticularly to the little folks. A feature
of the performance will be the many
trained animal acts. Madam Bradna
and her pony and dog circus; Pallen
berg's wonder bears. The sealskin
band, a troupe of Alaskan seals; a
troupe of trained mules and ponies in
a comedy circus. The performance

sort has been the scene of a number
of picnics the past week.
Crowds continue to make the Em
press Garden a mecca for Sunday
meals. Many a man is giving his
wife a Sunday treat and making it a
day of rest for her by bringing her to
this eat shop on this day. The tem
perature is really many degrees cooler
than the thermometer registers on
the outside, on account of the perfect
ventilation that has been installed,
and electric fans are to be seen on
every side. The cuisine continues to
hold up to the high standard set by
the management, whils the entertain
ment is supreme. The special attrac
tion for today and all week will bei
the famous International quartet.
Quartets are always popular, and it
must be said regarding the men who
compose this singing company that
they are past masters of harmony and
syncopation. It is not only lhe latest
airs they sing, but classics as well,
and with equal ease and excellence.

The call of the circus the fascina-j

when she was left an orphan through I
the accidental death of her father.
Years before her grandfather had
turned his son out of doors because

ment and happiness. The arrival and
unloading of the five special trains of
railway equipment is a most enjoy
able feature of the day; then the prep
arations at the lot, where everything
moves with the precision of clock
work. In a short hour's time a great
white canvas city will be erected; the
arenic tent, the menagerie tents, three
mammoth stables for the seven' hun
dred beautiful horses, a dining hall
where one thousand persons are fed
three times a day, the kitchen with its
great steel ranges and bakers, black
smith shops, wardrobe tents, dressing
rooms and a dozen other tents for
the various departments.
Then the parade, which will leave
the show grounds about 10 o'clock
Monday morning. The parade this
season will, it is promised, be some
thing well worth while; it is made up
of allegorical floats, beautiful horses,
seven military bands, five herds of
elephants, and no one knows how
many rare wild animals, all arranged
in open cages so that the public can
lave a view of the zoological wonder
he had decided to, marry a girl the
old millionaire objected to, and be
come a showman. The little girl was
born with the show, grew to be a
famous ridr, and then the future be
came a black smudge when her fath
er fell to his death. The grouchy old
grandfather now came forward, de
manded the little girl for adoption,
and as his heir, and then came the
moment when the little rider must
decide between high society and life
with the circus. The result of the
decision makes a mighty interesting
photoplay to be exhibited at the Hipp
theater today and Monday, when Vio
let Mersereau comes to present the
Bluebird's latest attraction, "The
Little Terror." Rex Ingram made
the production and to secure 'jthe
proper scenes one of the big circuses
was halted on its tour of the country
while the exciting episodes of circus
life were photographed in genuine
surroundings of the sawdust arena.
