THE BEE: MONDAY MORNING, ' AUGUST 26. 1918. 3 DEFEATED ONES GAIN HG GROUND WITU DETITintlC mill i liiiiuiuj Feeling Pretty General That Primaries Nominated Candi dates Wanted by Ma jority of Voters. ;- From a Staff Correspondent. Lincoln, Aug. 25. (Special.) "The, agitation started by parties not sat isfied with the result of the primary election on governor and United States senator and their attempts to place petition candidates in the field, does not appear to be gaining ground. The contention tor petition candi datesVomes in a great measure from those who in the past have opposed any move toward the abolishment of the state wide primary. A9 in previous years,' the primary ha demonstrated that it is easy for a minority candidate to become the , choice of his party and whsye the vote is close on tnree or more candidates, it demon strates that a party is likely to have very much less than a majority can didate and consequently the intent of the primary laws not carried out. It is not believed that the move started to place petition candidates in the field will get very far, simply for the reason that the recent primary has show'h that in both parties the "protest" candidate brought about the nomination of the candidate it was supposed he went into the field to defeat.

AT THE THEATERS 'Twin Beds," a farce in three acts, by Salisbury Field and Margaret Mayo. Tho players: Blanche Hawkins Josephlns Saxe Slirnor Monti S. Paul Veron SiKnora Monti Antolnett liotche Harrv Hawkins William l ourneen Vorah lies Stafford Aniand l,nrkln Margaret l'hilllp Andrew Larkln Ten Kyck i'lay zmWIX BEDS," with none of the varnish knocked off, and just as tresli as new. dis closed some of the intimate details of the Hawkins, Larkin and Monti households to the delight of a large audience at the Brandeis last night. It was the onenitiK of the season, and so brought together a consider able attendance of the regulars and enough casuals to give the occasion proper emphasis. The farce itself is familiar, depending on the incidence of events, innocent enough in them selves, but capable of developing quite interestingly along lines the be holder has little difficulty in follow ing. However, the authors always stop well on the safe side of the ob vious and turn on the impossible that laughter may follow. Thus is imagination -pleasingly piqued, while easy llowing merriment uuiigs us sure reward. Tn the nresent instance real inter est quickly centers on Miss Rotche, who gives a peculiarly piquant quality to the role of the wife of the tenor whose temperament finds various out lets. Neither a shrew nor a virago, but a worldly-wise and yet tenderly devoted wife, she solves her problem in a common sense way, although sorely perplexed most of the time. Her discourse on the ways of way ward husbands is one of the real treats of the whole. Others m the cast arc quite capable of getting the fun out of the piece, and so the open ing night at the Brandeis was made enjoyable. It is a pleasure to note our old friend. Albin Huster, is in the or chestra director's seat, having suc ceeded Ernest Nordin, who went to the Orpheum. Tabloid Opera at Orpheum. "The Futuristic Revue," an oper atic tabloid sung by nine talented ar tists, is the outstanding feature of a well-balanced bill at the Orpheum this week. Well selected voices sing a condensed version of the opera, "Pagliacci," after which Countess de Leonardi plays violin classics and the act closes with a medley of operatic airs. Marion Harris, Burt Earle and company, deal in syncopation and jazz, while Walter Brower and Gal lagher and Rolley furnish laughter. Marien Harris, a comely young miss recently plucked by vaudeville from Mr. Ziegfield's Follies, wins with her contagious smile and the snap and ginger she injects into her songs. Walter Brower is the same old jolly jester of yore. Gallagher and Rolley have a military travesty. Margaret Edwards, described as the perfect girl, demonstrates by exer cises and dances how she attained that distinction. A special attraction this week are pictures of the Fourth of July cele bration in Paris, in which views of the American troops on parade and the exercises with which the French observed the day, are shown. The Orpheum travel pictures are of pic turesque Picardy, in France, where much of the current fighting now is going on, and railroad building in Morogoro. Empre Ha Manikin Revue. "La Petite Cabaret Itevue," a manikin musical comedy, headline act on the Em press vaudeville program for the first half of the week, led in, popularity with Sun day's -audiences. The sketch fehows a di minutive modern cabaret, with guests about the tables, waiters, wine, "vampires" and Jealous wives. Chong and Moey were well received and their Chinese songs were es pecially loudly applauded. Larry La Mont, "the tall skinny fellow," H rightly called a comedian, and Browning and Dawson pro vide laughter with their "Darktown Topics Jewel Carmen In "Lawless Love," and Bill West In "The Straight and Narrow," are features on the photoplay program. Jim Barton's Popularity. Torrid weather Isn't keeping admirers of "Dancing Jim" Barton from travelling Gayety-ward these days as Jim Is entirely too strongly entrenched as a favorite with burlesque lovers to permit oven a soaring thermometer to frighten them. With him are the "20th Century Maids," with Florence Belmont, Madelyn Worth and Tilllo Barton as the principal maids. " Boy Thwarts Attempt To Wreck Troop Train Chicago, Aug. 25. Boys playing along the tracks of the Illinois Central railroad on the south side noticed a switch thrown just before the arrival of a train bearing troops.

Federal agents were detailed to investigate what is believed to have been an attempt to wreck a troop train. Women Take Business Training to Make Way 1TT1 IT 1 IT When Husbands Leaye "All this week there has been succession of women calling upon us," said H. B. Boyles, president of Boyles college. 'These women show no lit tie anxie'i- at the prospect of their husbands Tieing dratteu under the pro posed law now pending in congress They are not prepared to support themselves in the absence of their husbands and they feel the nccs slty may soon arise for their enter ing the business world. They come to us to lerrn what we can do to help qualify them for positions in the bus iness nouses where the nuniber'of va cancies is constantly growing." "These women," continued Mr Boyles, "are aware of the extraordi nary demand for clerical help and of fice assistants of all grades to which war activities have given rise. Thev know before coming to us that it will not be difficult for them to find work if they can but qualify themselves for such services. "It is a pleasure for us to he able to assure these women that the short cut to the pay envelope is found in the business training schools such as Movies college. "Mostyof them take a spirited view of the matter and seem to be recon ciled to the decree of fate. They say that if Uncle Sam needs their hus bamls it's all right, and when they go into the army r.nd the support of the family falls upon their wives the lat ter will cheerfully take up the burden and do their part in helping the gov ernment to win the war." pyiilitary Training for Cotner University The trustees of Cotner university at Bethany (Lincoln), Neb., are tak ing steps to establish military train ing in the school this year.
