ONE ADMISSION
FOR COUNTY FAIR
AND AK-SAR-BEN
Best Agricultural Exhibit Ever
Seen Here to Be Feature
n r
Of
Fair on Carni
val Dates.
The Douglas county fair, to be held
in conjunction with the Ak-Sar-Ben
festivities on the carnival grounds
this year, promises one of the best
agricultural exhbits yet shown in the
county, says James Walsh and J. F.
McArdle, president and. secretary, re
spectively, of the Douglas County Ag
ricultural society.
t, fair tiriii nnpn the dav the car-
nival opens, September 25, and will
continue until the carnival closes, ten
days later, October 5. Admission to
the carnival grounds also will entitle
one to admission o the fair.
Good Show Secured.
Plans for the King's carnival are
proceeding apace. Special efforts
were made by Samson to secure the
best -how on the road today and the
Con. T. Kennedy shows have accord
ingly been booked. They are playing
at Peoria, 111., this week and will play
at Sioux City the week before coming
to Omaha. Adverse railroad condi
tions, which are affecting the sched
ules of many circuses and shows on
the road this year, will not interfere
with bringing the Kennedy shows to
Omaha, says "Dad" Weaver, for auto.
mobile trucks can easily be supplied,
if need be, to bring the shows from
Sioux City.
Following the custom of former
years, the Den will be dark Monday
evening. The many other attractions
in the city on Labor day would in
terfere with the den performance, it
is felt
The merchants visiting the city to
attend Merchants' Market week, which
begins September 9, will be the guests
at the Den for the last show of the
season on Monday evening, Septem
ber 9, together with the usual dele
gation of soldiers from Fort Omaha
and as many soldiers as can be spared
from Fort Crook.
v Pennants for Lincoln.
A fresh group of 100 soldiers which
have just arrived at the latter post
will help swell the number of visitors.
Gus Renze is keeping mum about
the theme of the electrical parade on
the evening of Wednesday, October
2. He is hard at work constructing
the floats for the pageant, however,
and the promise is that his latest
effort will outdo all his earlier produc
tions. Ak-Sar-Ben members who expect to
attend the state fair at Lincoln on
Omaha day, Thursday, September 5,
should call vat the Ak-Sar-Ben office
Wednesday afternoon to secure pen
nants and badges for their cars. Park
ing space will be reserved at the fair
grounds for automobiles from Omaha.
Earl Brice Arested on
Charge of Stealing Car
Deputy Sheriff Gillapsy reported
yesterday that a car had been aban
doned in front of his home on Bloom
er street. The car bore a Nebraska
license and when the Omaha depart
ment was notified, Detectives Dan
baum and Rich came across the river
and asked for the arrest of Earl Brice,
17 years old. The car was taken from
the Blackstone garage, wlpere the
Bluffs boy had been employed.
Brice was found at the home of his
grandmother, at 518 Damon street,
by Detective Peterson, who accom
panied the Omaha officers. The boy
was concealed under a stack of bed
clothing. Detectives say he admitted
taking the car from the garage Sat
urday night and came to the Bluffs
tor a so-called joy ride, accompanied
by three other boys and a girl. The
car had been badly damaged, neces
sitating its abandonment
Brice a year ago was implicated
in the theft of a car belonging to W.
C. Grote of the Younkerman Seed
company and was held to the grand
jury with three other boys. Two of
the boys entered military service and
the case was not pushed. In each
case the purpose was not theft, but
joy riding. Young Brice was taken
to Omaha by the detectives.

AT THE
THEATERS
"Business Before Pleasure."
AS ABE POTASH sententiously
remarked of the scenario of
"The Fatal Murder," "Business
Before 'Pleasure," which opened the
season at the -Boyd Sunday night,
could have occurred in real life.
All of its witty dialogue, every one
of its ridiculous situations are a pos
sibility, provide.d there is an Abe
Potash, a Mawruss Perlmutter, a
Rosie Potash, a Ruth Perlmutteri a
Rita Sismundi, movie vampire, and a
dissipation like the moving picture
game to tempt the activities of men
who made a romance of the suit
and cloak business, to provide the ve
hicle for a coherent tale.
"Business Before Pleasure" is one
continuous chuckle and storm q
laughter from start to finish. It is
a unique adaptation of the moving
picture play to the stage, with its liv
ine actors, and some of the cleverest
lines are interpreted on the screen as
are some of the most ludicrous
scenes.
As usual Tules Jordan made his
Abe Potash the same lovable char
acter as he has in the past. He in
terorets the senior partner of the
firm, with all his weakness and
strength, in a way that brings the
laugh just at' the moment when there
should be a cheer or a tear for some
expression of manly loyalty, and for
some impulsive chivalrous action,
Charles Lipson has added to his
laurels in the character of Mawruss
Perlmutter. Lizzie Wilson and Lot
tie Vernon as Rosie and Ruth, loyal
but jealous and suspicious wives
were excellent and the work of Helen
Gill, as Rita Sismondi, the "vampire
possessed ereat charm.
The whole of the company is well
balanced and the play is one con
tinuous purveyor of joy.
Vaudeville at the Orpheum.
A prima donna soprano whose per
formance is doublv attractive because
she sings her entire program in Eng
lish, wins first honors at the urpneum
this week. She is Llora Hoffman.
Llora Hoffman limits her program
to four numbers but she would have
contributed several more had she
chosen to respond to the demands of
her Sunday audience. She is possess
ed of an unusually strong and clear
voice as well as one of rich, sweet
melody and her expression is almost
faultless. She has adapted her pro
gram for the variety stage by sing
ing selections more easily appreciated
by vaudeville audiences than those
usually sung by concert artists and
as a result, she scores heavily.
Carl McCullough provides IS min
utes of enjoyment and fun with his
travesties of how David Warfield,
Eddie Foye, Harry Lauder and others
would sing one of Al Jolson's fav
orite songs. He also makes merry
in an imitation of a woman trying to
make a telephone connection from a
pay station booth.
Dale and Burch have a fun-making
sketch called the "Riding Master,"
which keeps the audience in a con
stant chuckle with an outright laugh
inserted here and there.
An absurd farce called "The Office
Boy," is. offered by Eddie Carr and
company. Eddie Carr is the prin
cipal merry-maker appearing as the
"fresh" office boy who assumes
charge of the place immediately upon
his arrival. J. K. Emmet and Mary
Ryan appear in "Wishland," a musical
romance in which they have been
seen here before "All for Demo
cracy" is a patriotic allegory. "An
Artistic Treat" is the simple title of
a posing act which, opens the bill.
Orpheum pictures show views of Cop
enhagen and the fjords of Norway.
Vaudeville at the Empress.
Excitement and thrills aplenty mark
the feature act on the Empress vaude
ville program for the first half of the
week. The offering is "The Frontier
of Freedom," a sensational reproduc
tion of a front line trench "over
there" and it shows what our boys
have to contend with on the battle
front. The setting is most realistic
and is the work of Capt. L. E.
Ramon, U. S. A., and Lt. T. F.
Hewitt, Royal Flying Corps, both of
whom have had experiences in the
battle line. Lotus Lee's sketch is
"Just Songs," but they are of an un
usually pleasing sort. Marion Gib-
ney is a comedienne of stellar ability.
Charles Harris & Co., in George Ade s
comedy, "The Mayor and the Man
iac," have a laughing success that
was highly popular Sunday. William
S. Hart in "The Reformed Outlaw"
and Peggy Hyland in "Bonnie Annie
Laurie are the features on the photo
play bill.
Ben Welch at the Gayety.
At the Gayety theater, with mat
inees daily, Ben Welch and his Big
Show are making their annual wel
come visit to the city. The musical
farce "Izzi, the Diamond King" and
the exposition burlesque "Izzi, at the
Movies" is a succession of superbly
artistic panoramas, quivering with the
life of light, encircled by vibrations
of the most poetic sound and sway
ing in the rhythms of graceful bodies
tuned to a single striking high pitch
of excellence. The hand of the artist,
the master of color and movement is
seen back of it all, pulling the strings
with unerring accuracy. The cast
engaged to assist Ben Welch in the
entertaining is a picked one. of more
than ordinary merit and includes:
Dolly Morrissey, Evelyn Cunning
ham, Pat Kearney,' Frank P. Murphy,
Frankie Martin, Geo. B. Alexander,
Jack Barton and a singing and danc
ing chorus of twenty young ladies.
An endless mob of pretty girls flutter
about the foot-lights and all are flaw
less and chosen berries in the theatri

starts at 3:00.

Circus Arrives
CIRCUS DAY AT A GLANCE.
Show Grounds Twentieth and
Paul streets.
Parade Leaving the circus
grounds at 10 o'clock this morning
the Hagenbeck-Wallace pageant
will traverse the following route,
immediately following the Labor
parade: Paul street to Cuming, on
Cuming street to Sixteenth, on
Sixteenth street to Douglas, on
Douglas to Tenth, on Tenth to
Farnam, on Farnam to Sixteenth
street and back to show grounds.
Tickets On sale from two
wagons at the circus grounds and
downtown at the Myers-Dillon
Drug Co., 1609 Farnam street.
Performances 2 and 8 p. m.
Doors open 1 and 7 p. m.
Sunday is the Sabbath day, even
with the circus.
The scriptural injunction that "six
days shalt thou labor, but the sev
enth day," etc. is strictly observed un
der the "big top" of the Hagenbeck
Wallace circus and only absolutely
necessary work is done. The six big
poles stand stark and bare for they
are early set up to, get them out of
the way and the huge canvas lies on
the ground ready to be pulled up the
first thing Monday morning.
Not even the wild animals are fed,
for it has been found that their health
is much improved if they fast one day
a week. And so Sunday was the day
chosen, for it has the added advantage
of giving the stock keepers and the
trainers a rest. The only exceptions
are the elephants, who get their reg
ular daily mca'. None of the wild
animals is fed more than once a day,
even throughout the week.
As for the 1,000 people who ar
rived early Sunday morning with the
Hagenbeck-Wallace circus, they
spend Sunday in abstaining from labor
as much as possible. Many of them
went to theaters Sunday; others went
to ball games.
The show used to cajry a chaplain,
and he used to hold regular religious
services in a tent on Sunday morn
ings. But since Rev. Cadcsman Pope
joined the colors, it has been found
impossible to find a successor for him.
There's a good job open for some
preacher who is dissatisfied with his
present salary.
Three hundred stars dot the field
of the huge service flag which flies
over the main entrance to the Hagenbeck-Wallace
cl.cus. Increasing dif
ficulty is being found by the man
agers of the circus in securing labor.
The, show lost 72 people in the train
wreck at Gary, Ind., on June 22.
The shortage of labor is felt also
among the animal trainers. ' Emil
Schwyer, head of the lion trainers,

Wilson Criticised For
Attempt to Influence
Vote on Water Power
Washington, Sept. 1. Action of
opposing the net investment clause of
the water-power bill was criticised to
day by Representative Gillette of
Massachusetts, acting minority lead
er, and other house republicans.
Referring to the president's letter,
Mr. Gillette said that Chairman Sims
of the interstate commerce commit
tee "seems to think there should be
no legislation without first obtain
ing the views of the president." Rep
resentative Anderson of Minnesota
said some one "torpedoed the water
power committee."
Chairman Sims told the house that
he had introduced the bill on the sup
position that it met with executive
approval. An amendment introduced
by Representative Doremus of Michi
gan, requiring the federal water-power
commission which the bill estab
lishes to give municipalities prior
rghts to the acquirements of develop
ment licenses, was approved by the
house. '
Potatoes to Rot in West
Unless Cars Be Provided
Riverton, Wyo., Sept. 1. (Special.)
Thousands of tons of potatoes,
raised in this section on the urgent
demand of the Food administration,
must be thrown out to rot unless
more satisfactory assurances can be
had that cars will be forthcoming for
their shipment. A very greatly in
creased area has been planted to
potatoes this year, and the unusually
wet season has jnade the dry land
potato crop heavy. Last year many
hundred tons rotted because of a
flack of cars, and unless better facili
ties can be had this fall, the loss will
be enormous.

Labor Day Messages of
Railway Union Heads
Cleveland, Sept. 1. "It is a pleasure
to note the fact that on the approach
of Labor day we find organized labor
everywhere in earnest sympathy and
hearty co-operation with the aims and
objects of our national government,"
said Warren S. Stone, grand chief en
gineer, Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, in a message to labor on
the eve of Labor day.
"We are proud of the unselfish pur
pose actuating the entry of the United
States into the present world war,"
the labor day message of Timothy
Shea, acting president of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En
gincmen, says, "and to the realization
of the noble ideals proclaimed as its
only motive in participating in this
appalling conflict we pledge our lives,
fraternity and our sacred honor to
the end that liberty, fraternity and
equality be established throughout
the world, politically, socially, econo
mically and industrially."

FLYERS JOURNEY
ON TO MILL CITY
FOR EXHIBITION
Two Strew Flowers on the
Newly Made Grave of
Comrade Killed in
Flight.
The flyers of the American-British
Aviation tour who gave their
aerial exhibition here Saturday af
ternoon, flew away to Minneapolis
yesterday.
This little Sunday joy ride of the
aviators is about 400 miles and they
make that distance easily in four hours
without -speeding. Of course, if they
were in a hurry they would do it in
three hours. The trip takes 11 or 12
hours on that out-of-date contrivance,
the steam railway train, which we all
used to think quite a rapid means of
motion a few years ago. But now,
bah, it's too slow.
The 10 machines did not leave to
gether. They departed by ones and
twos throughout the day. The first
one spread its wings, buzzed its pro
peller and sailed into the sky soon
after 7 o'clock in the morning. This
one had a solemn duty to perform,
namely, to strew flowers on the newly-made
grave of Major Ream, at
Homer, Neb., 14 miles this side of
Sioux City. Major Ream started with
the tour but was killed in an airplane
accident as the machine in which he
was riding was approaching St. Louis,
10 days ago.
.Lieutenants Carroll arid Connell in
a Curtiss Hispano Suiza machine car
ried the large bunch of flowers which
had been provided by Fred Hamilton
of Omaha. They were the first to
leave. They departed from the Fon
tertelle before 6 o'clock in the morn
ing and an hour later disappeared in
the distance flying toward the north.
Other planes rose and headed to
ward Minneapolis during the day. The
last of the 10 left the starting field,
west of Fairacres, at 3:30 o'clock in
the afternoon, being due in Min
neapolis at 7:30.
The trip to Minneapolis was made
ir- two "jumps" as the aviators call
them. They all descended at Spencer,
Minn., to replenish their gasoline sup
plies. Each machine carries enough
gasoline for about two and a half
hours of flying.
A few people watched them leave
the starting field here.
All the aviators were warmly
dressed in caps that leave only the
face visible, heavy coats and. leather
coats outside of the others. Also
gloves. This warm dress is necessary
because at the height at which they
fly in going from city to city, 4,500
to 6,000 feet, it is quite cold.
The big De Haviland machine which
was damaged when Lieutenant Kelle
her landed here Friday, was shipped
to the factory for repairs. It was
uninjured except for the smashing
of its propeller and landing wheels.

FEDERAL TRADE
BOARD SCORED BY
COMMERCE BODY
Usurpation, Inefficiency and
Unjust Abuse of Business In
terests Charged in Let
ter to President.
Washington, Sept. 1. Usurpation of
power, inefficiency and unjust abuse
of business interests are among
charges made against the federal
trade commission and laid before
President Wilson by the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States.
In a letter to the president made
public tonight by the organization,
the directors approve and submit a
report denouncing the trade commis
sion as an irresponsible body that
has lost the confidence of the public
and asking the president to remedy
this condition by filling two existing
vacancies in the membership with
men "whose interest will be single to
the commission's work." The re
port was prepared by the chamber's
federal trade committee, of which
Rush C Butler, a Chicago lawyer, is
chairman. It presents the following
seven charges:
"The commission has undertaken
the exercise of functions beyond its
own jurisdiction to the detriment of
its proper usefulness.
Work Declared Incomplete.
"The commission has begun the
study of important situations but be
cause of vacillating interest or for
other reasons not apparent has left
its work incomplete.
"The commission's procedure, erig-
inatly orderly and appropriate, has
been changed without public notice
or notice to congress.
The commission has abused its
powers of publicity.
fromment features ot tne com
mission's recent food investigation
were surversive of common justice.
"In presenting information to con
gress and the public the commission
has been heedless of the accuracy and
frankness which its position and the
circumstances require.
The commission has departed
from the fundamental purpose for
which it was established."
The report sets forth that it does
not undertake to criticise in detail
specific acts of the commission, but
rather to point out mistakes in prin
ciples of conduct. The president is
assured that the chamber and its com
mittee, which has followed the work
of the commission since its organiza
tion three years ago, does not repre
sent special business interests.
In criticising methods adopted dur
ing the recent investigation of the
packing industry, the report says, a
special counsel (Frances J. Heney)
was employed at $30,000 a year and
expenses, although it had been stated
to a. committee of congress that the
salary would be at the rate of $5,000.
in this inquiry the commission se
lected documents already in its pos
session and had them presented to
it at public sessions by its special
counsel," says the report, "refusing
to permit concerns that were men
tioned in the documents to offer any
