considered fingers trained to do. needlework

marked revival of needlework.

Who wouldn't come

on a Tori dinner bell,
with a red and black
Japanese lacquered
frame, a center disk of
bronze, worked in a
quaint Japanese design.
For the music room,
there is a wonderfully

Lamp with a mulberry
silk shade, having in
sets of hand-painted
parchment, outlined
s with a chenille trim
ming and having drops
of mulberry and old
gold.
And the new Spring
flowers, so very much
-like the real ones, jon
quils, violets, pansies
and nasturtiums, and
let me tell you a secret
if one carefully se
lected the sachets of the
flower and sprinkle s
them with, oh, just such
a little bit, we have even
the fragrance of the
real flowers, and they
wont wilt.
For the sun room,
there is a cornucopia
of enameled reed, filled
' to overflowing with
purple and white blos
soms. For the top of
the nw bookcase there
are the tall, graceful
'Mahogany Candlesticks

giving just the note of

to complete our living

Drapery
With the Spring

appear, one's thoughts
naturally turn to house
furnishings, and there
are so many pretty new
Draperies. I was par

the new English import

in particular being a
black background lat
ticed with roses in two
shades of blue and
leaves of the soft shades
of brown and tan.

Linens
With the soldier boys
all coming home, there
will be many weddings
and engagements, and
one's interests are cen
tered in the linen chests
of the brides and brides-to-be.
There are the
new Filet Scarfs, show-
ing quaint Japanese fig
ures and " designs, and
we noticed that the love
god figured quite promi
nently in most of the
designs.

Such wonderful new

Reckless Chauffeur Draws
Double Fine in Court
A thrilling fide, a leap in the
dark, .and a consequent shaking up
were received by Policemen Cogan
and Francl before they succeeded
in arresting Barney Ravinski, 2002
N street, charged with drunkenness,
reckless driving and illegal trans
portation of intoxicating liquor.
The officers took Barney into cus
tody Sundav evening. He was op-
ertjf&ei i iarg, .-. .tyw4 wag
ing car. The two officers forced
Barney to drive them to .the sta
tion. Arriving there the chauffeur
suddenly opened wide the throttle
and the powerful car leaped for
ward, heading toward a deep ravine
at Twentieth and N streets, the of
ficers on the running boards' pre
cariously holding on. The officers
drew' their revolvers but the driver
would not stop, and fearing a wreck,
the officers jumped.
Barney was later captured by the
two policemen and was" fined -$W
for illegal transportation and $50
for reckless driving. ?
The charee of drunkenness was
not sustained.
Tohn Sinuk, who was with Bar

AT THE
THEATERS
0'
MAIIA'S opera week starts this
evening, when the San Carlo
Grand Opera company begins
its annual engagement at the Boyd
theater. The opening bill will be
"Madame Butterfly," with the Jap
anese diva, llaru Ouuki in the role
of Clio Clio San. Agostino will be
fhe Lieutenant rinkerton of the cast.
The rest of the singing roles will be
in capable hands, and the Puccini
opera is assured not only worthy
treatment by the principal singers,
but the orchestra and the scenic
equipment are such as add dignity
and beauty alike to the presentation.
Everything has been arranged to
make this season of opera the most
enjoyable in Omaha's experience.
The transfer of the scene from the
Auditorium to the theater is ex
pected to compensate in added ex
cellence of performance any loss
that might be experienced in way of
1 t .
lessened seating capacity
The de
mand for seats has justified the
move, for all day yesterday, as well
as for several days past, a line was
in front of the box office window,
buying seats for the different operas.
At the matinee on Wednesday a
double bill, "The Secret of Su
zanne," (in English) and "ITag
liacci" will be sung. On Wednesday
night, "Rigoletto"; on Thursday eve
ning, "Aida"; on Friday evening,
"Carmen"; Saturday matinee, "Mar
tha," and Saturday night "II Trova
tore." Amsden will sing Suianne
and Wentworth Nedda; Queena
Mario, new to Omaha, will sing
litefdi iftsovfrt Wl s!ng A'.it; Si'cli
DeMette will sing Carmen; Queena
Mario will sing Lady Harriet, and
Wentworth will sing Leonora, these
being the soprano roles in the order
named.
'
Stella Mayhew immensely pleased
the great society night audience that
filled the Orpheum last evening.
This star of innumerable musical
comedies retains her ability to rouse
heartly laughter. Her ebon songs
are an unfailing source of merri
ment. The bill this week is not
merely entertaining, with many
lively elemmts, but also offers one
of the most artistic features in vau-
J'deville. It is the concert work of
the eminent Belgian 'cellist, Elsa
Kuegger. Miss Rtiegger has been
soloist of many symphony orches
tras and has won international fame
as a concert artist. She is assisted
this time by the operatic soprano,
Grace Marcia Lewis.

the title ot "J. he Heart ot .Human

week, with Dorothy Phillips in the
principal role.
Lew Kelly is a smileless come
diana veritable "gloorh," if there
ever was such a thing. Never once
does he venture a smile, but his
lines are all smiles. Over in Lon
don during his engagement there in
one of the musical revues a dra
matic writer labeled him "an epi
grammatic lunatic." He wasn't far
from the truth, either. Mr. Kelly
has caused his "dope" character to
survive all his imitators, and while
ding so has ripened and developed
in a most satisfactory manner. But
don't become possessed of the idea
that he constitutes the entire per
formance at the Gayety this week.

Ra$e Must Heed History
Lessons to Escape Disaster
The only thing which can save the
race from disaster will be the pos
session of an "experiencing mind"
by which humanity can come ..ex
peditiously into the possession of
the experiences of the past with
out the necessity of now passing
through the slow process usual in
the school of experience, was the
opinion expressed by Dr. Samuel
M. Crothers in his lecture at the
Unitarian church last night.
"The topic was "In the Dame
School of Experience." The speak
er framed his address in the form
of an interview with the dame in
charge of the school, and in his in
imitable style found occasion to
touch upon many present day foibles
in education and in social relation
ships. He declared that the world
has not time at present to go again
through the hard school, but must
apply the experience of history to
conditions today.
A large audience was delighted
with Dr. Crothers sparkling humor,
the incisiveness of his observations
&nd the practicality of his applica
tion of the theme to the world of
the present. ,
Plans for Commerce High
Discussed by School Board
Matters preliminary to letting the
contract for building the new High
School of Commerce were discussed
at an executive meeting of the
Board of Education in the secre
tary's quarters in the city hall last
night. Because of the attendance of
but seven members no decision was
reached.
As yet no architect has been se
lected to draw plans for the build
ing, as numerous questions pertain
ing to the size, cost and even minor
details of the building are matters
of argument. The only settled fact
adopted so far is that the new school
is to be located at Thirty-second and
Cuming streets and will be large
enough to suit the needs of the in
creasing number of students. It is
hoped the building will be erected
by next September.
