    GOWNS OF MAIDS IN AK-SAR-BEN PAGEANT A RIOT

Ak-Sar-Ben Den a Land
Of Perfume, and .Oriental
; Settings of the Far East
Prologue Precedes Pageant, In Which Prince Discov
ers, and Saves From Prison, His Queen Dancing
Girls and Maids Make Scene a Gorgeous Affair.
Within the huge tent of the Ruler
of Quivera, all' was beauty, gran
deur, splendor. The den of former
days had been mysteriously trans-
filanted to the sandi of the Orient
and became the desert domain of
King Ak-Sar-Ben. The interior was
hung with costly i and magnificent
. draoenes in shades ot yellow, or
ange and flame. The perfume of
exotic flowers was heavy in the air
and jeweled lamps gently swaying
shed a dull glow. over the scene.
Out before -a dull gold curtain
came Prologeue, Charles Gardner,
dressed in the garments of the
Orient. He spoke in verse and told
the story of how in the olden days
King Ak-Sar-Ben chose his , queen.
In a far-off - land, a beautiful
princess was imprisoned in a secret
garden near a river. Here she
pent the hours in weaving wreaths
of flowers which her maidens threw
Jnto the stream hoping that some
prince might find them and rescue
her. '
i The Prince Ak-Sar-Ben in the
realm of Quivera discovered one of
the wreaths and sent a.n ambassador
with many gifts to seek the maiden
and bring her to his land in order
that she might become his queen.
Thereupon the Prince, surrounded
.by the Governors of his provinces,
was invested with the chain of
Cibola) and the star of Quivera as
the king of the mighty lands.
Dancing and revelry followed the
coronation of the king and then the
approach of the princess was an
nounced. She was preceded by her
maidens and 'pages. Upon her ar
arrival she was greeted by the king
$nd was crowned Queen of Quivera.
The Pageant.
', With the opening of-' the curtain
after the prologue by two great
Nubian slaves, the garden scene
was presented. The princess sur
rounded by her many maidens was
weaving the wreaths of flowers
which her attendant, Mrs. Charles
R. Dqcherty, threw over the garden
wall into the stream below. During
the entire scene, Mrs. Harry Steele
sang a Hindu love song. All the
colors were in the lighter shades
and the brilliant blue of the sky
was a decided contrast to them.
Just at the closing of the scene, the
ambassador of the Prince arrived
bearing gifts to' the Princess and
summoning her to the land of Qui
vera. - PAGEANT.

Prologue (Heroic figures in cloth
of gold and flame, turban, etc.) who
tells in the verse the story of the
pageant summoning the audience as
the people of Quivera to witness
how their King Ak-Sar-Ben chose a
queen to rule a happy people.

Maidens wind her veil about her and
e besins her journey as the cur-

The pfcologue now. comes before
the ' curtaiiKannouncing we are in
the' court of King AkSar-Ben. "
Tn the blue moonlight the-sing
..,', slaves (Ak-Sar-Ben chorus)
m thraurh the curtains, and
grouped on the steps, with jeweled
lanterns, sing a song of India as
they go forth (down to the rear of
the hall) to meet the princess.
The governors of the provinces
(board of governors) now enter 'the
far end of the hall and pass up the
steps and through the curtains,
which slowly part to reveal the
king on his throne, the high priest
decorating him with the royal neck
lace. An oriental ballet is danced by
the dancing girls (with solos by
Miss Zeit and Miss bwett.)
As they are dancing a distant
trumpet call announces the ap
proach of a herald, who runs from
the rear of the tent, heralding the
approach of the princess, who Is
preceded by the slave bearing gift
and the special maids of honor, and
the future queen now enters and is
met at the steps by King Ak-Sar-Ben,
who Crowns her and leads 4ier
to the throne.
The maids and governors are re
ceived, then all the people of
Quivera salute their sovereign, after
which a great ball is held.
The special maids to the princess
were gowned in Oriental robes of
chiffon made in Turkish style, loose
and sleeveless and belted with sashr
es of chiffon which were tied in
the front. Bracelets of silver and
gold,,, pearls and sequins were on
their arms, and strands of pearls
and vari-colored beads were worn
around their necks. On their feet
were sandals of silver.
Miss Marjorie Cavers and Miss
Louise Clarke, the first maidens to
enter before the princess, wore tur
quoise blue and electric green
shades of chiffon with veils to har
monize. Their crowns were of sold
and silver, with which aigrettes, to
match the costumes, were com
bined.. , -
Miss -Dorothy Kiplinger and Elsie
Storz, who followed, wore hand-
dyed chiffon in the shaded apricote
colors. The crowns which were
worn with these costumes were of
silver and apricote shade sequins.
miss riorence Kussell and Miss
Helen Hussie had robes of Nile
green over lavender and orange. On
their heads were crowns of bril

flies. , -
The Misses Dorothv Heir and

a. The pages "to the princess were
little William HosfnrH. ir id

lated to former rulers of the realm.
They were uniquely costumed , in
Turkish style blouses and bloom
ers of many colors. 1
John D. Creiirhton. 2d. and F.n.
glebert . Folda, jr., pages to the
king, were costumed in the same
manner.
The interlude consisted of hallet
dances given by those girls especial
ly selected for the purpose. At the
close of dancinsr. which took nlare
in the center of the Den, a trumpet
was neara announcing that the
princess was about to appear. At
this signal all the dancing girls
salaamed deeply and reclined upon
the floor. -, .
Misses Portia Swett and RlsiV
Zeit of Chicago, were the solo
dancers. Others taking part in the
ballet included Misses Pleasant
Holyoke and Vireinia Whitehearl of

When their acted as attendants
to the princess in her garden they
wore the pastel shades in the gowns.
However, as the dancing girls of
King Ak-Sar-Ben they were cos
tumed in- the very vivid colors, all
shades of yellow, purple, orange and
flame. " '
At the same time the stage which
had been in darkness began to
light showing the king upon a huge
divan over which was a rose colored
canopy. As the blackness was dis
pelled, the group of. governors and
slaves who were around him be
came visible and the ceremony of
investing him as king ; was per
formed. '
' The' princess, with her maidens
then advanced from the opposite
end of the Den. When she reached
the stage, she was greeted by the
king, who crowned her. After the
greetings of the governors, the bal
let in the arena proceded.
Immediately after the dancing, the
Board of Governors went into the
arena and escorted a number of
Omaha's most prominent women to
the throne where they paid hom
age to their rulers. 1
The ceremony of the cornation
having been completed, the ball began.

Throngs View New Ruler of Quivera
(Continued From Page One.)
desert One could feel that the
camels must be lying down just
outside the door and that the tur
baned orientals were sitting in the
sands, singing the weird, mysterious
songs of the east.
The present monarch of Quivera
is the first whose coronation has
been part of a story instead of mere
ly a ceremony. Other monarchs of
the line have taken their crowns in
prosaic manner in Omaha. Their
queens have been selected for them.
Chose Own Princess.
Not so Ak-Sar-Ben XXV. He
chose his own princess and rescued
her from prison is the good, old,
story book way. And the immense
crowd that filled every foot of
space in the royal castle last night
thrilled to the romance of the story.
Ak-Sar-Ben XXV proved to be no
spineless monarch who permitted
his privy counsellors to select his
queen. Not hel For, while he was
still a prince in the rich and pros
perous kingdom , of Quivera he
found, one day a wreath of flowers
in the river on which was a mes
sage telling him . of the imprisoned
princess. "
Straightway he sent ambassadors
with rich gifts and arranged for the
rescue of the princess and for'her
escort to his rich oriental kingdom.
And when he beheld her. he found
that she was seven times lovelier
than he had pictured her. And the
princess discovered that the prince
was seven times more, handsome
than he had appeared in her dreams.
It was love at first sight.
And so they were crowned king
and queen of Quivera and lived hap
pily ever after.
The happy though royal pair were
crowned amid the rejoicing of
everybody within the royal dastle.
Queen Receives Court.
In fact, the king this year re
ceived no crown, probably in defer
ence to the recent progress in mak
ing the world safe for democracy.
Instea.l, a necklace was placed about
his neck. The aueen. however, re-
noble head. - .
The oriental story which took the
place of the former coronation occu
pied about an hour. The prologue
was , spoken. There were classic
dance bv the fair daughters 'of
Omaha and some from other cities,
there was weird, mystic music which
seemed to have the east in its very
strains, there was the wondrous
inarch of the Nubian slaves who
went to bring the princess to the
court of King Ak-Sar-Ben XXVf
there was the discovery of the new
king seated upon his oriental throne
beneath its oriental canopy; there
was the appearance of the beautiful
12 pnncosses, attendants of. the
queen, who entered slowly and
walked the length of the room to the
trains. of delicious music, and there
was the entrance of the lovelv aueen
herself, two pages walking behind
the splendid train of her royal robe
and several Nubian slaves walking
before and behind her.
Governors Gorgeously Clad.
And who-. can ever forget the
splendid entrance of the governors
of Ak-Sar-Ben, headed by the hand
some figure of Everett Buckingham?
He wore a silk suit of Arabian mode,
the tight silken trousers held at the
waist by a heavy silken sash and
upon his head a turban of silk sur
mounted by a rare plume.
The other governors were simi
larly clad, all in silk, but the colors
varying. At the side of each dan
gled a gleaming scimetar. As they
walked up and bowed before the
kingsjind queen, the orchestra play
ing a weird air that sounded of go
ing out to primitive battle well, it
was certainly worth going to see.
And when they were seated upon
their thrones and the people had
pledged them homage, they gave a
sign, the music started and the
dance began, knights and ladies
moving smoothly to the rhythmic
strains, inaugurating- the reign of
the new monarch and his consort.
And so throughout the evening
in the midst of this fairyland went
the dance.
: The wee. small hours arrived be
fore the dance was over, and the
automobiles had carried away the
lovely ladies and knights to their
hemes and the crowning of the new
king and queen was a happy
niemorv. ' '
