Are you ploaBed with tho appearanco
of pink rubber gum? Do you ftel satis

or an all porcelain plato overcomes this
unnatural appoarance of the gum. Tho
porcelain plato is tho best mado for tbo
following reasons: It can be made to
look natural ovon if tbo gum shows; tho
entire plato is ono pioce of porcelain; is
c!oan and agreeable to tho mouth, and
is equal in strength to any plate made.

HERE AND THERE IN OMAHA.
Tho Greater America expciilion is a
dad one. Last Tuesday night the
dream tho nightmare, came to an ond
in darkness, amidst a whirlwind of sand
and blinding dust unJ a bacbanalian
revel.
Tho air was full of rumors that the
big show would ond dismally and wi.h
r otous conduct, for many were de
manding money due them and many bad
old scores to eottlo. Early in tho af tf r
noon the men who bavo worked hard in
tha boilor rooms to Bhovol tho coal at d
doothor hard work to keep the city
shining at night like a huge jewel of
light pulled the fires in an attempt to
leave the city in total darkness.
This difficulty was overcome and tho
lights woro turned on luto in the even
ing. Then tho wires were cut and final,
ly tho water was turned otr from tho.
boilers. Thi9 was tho lust straw and
tho managemont decided there should
and could be no lights.
Up and down the lo.g Midway streets
tho people surged and surged. Tho
wind flung its clouds of duat and sand
like a dancer's ekirt among the laughing
p oplo and tho biting b'ast from tho
north swooped down upon ovorcoatloas
men and thinly clad women. In tbo
drinking boo' ha wera ucones of wildost
disorder. Mon and women stood on
tables and yollod themselves black in
tbo face. Bar maids ran hither and
thither wi!h thoir hatda filled with beer
glasses; waitors squeezed through tho
jam with groat difficulty and there wbb
wild hurrahing ar.d tbo spirit of devil
try in ovu-y nook and cranny of tho
groat dark city.
Nearly ovory ono had a wisp of grain
taken from tho Agrioulturo building or
pulled from tho thatched Philipioo vil
lugo, and this, combined with confetti
was thrown in tho faces of paesorsby in
showers of discomfort. Ono young man
with a wild gleam in bis eye pressed
closely to a fashionably dressed woman
a -d crying "hollo" at tho top of his
voice, throw a handful of tho confetti
in hor face. Hor escort, blind with rago
at tho fanciod insult, darted forward
crying "Hold on there, hold on!'' but the
young fellow wriggled through tho
crowd, and tho man Btruck out with bis
fist and laid an innocent bystander on
tho pavomcut. lhis incident was
scarcely over when a young man struck
a woman to tho ground for knocking bis
hat from bis head. She stood near tho
viaduct ard every time a man camo
along sho would make a swipo at his
head gear, and then givo it a kick as it
rolled on tho ground under the feet of
thepasBirg multitude. When Bbo went
sprawling in a heap, a groat shout of
joy aroBe from thoso who had fallen vic
tims to her drunken madness. In ono
of tho pavilions early in tho evening tho
peoplo took ovory beor glass, and before
polico protection could bo hid they btolo
over GOO glasses. Ono man waB Been
going down tho Midway with a beer
glass in ovory pocket and under his
overcoat wbb a big tray.
In a prominent pavilion a young man
got too obstreperous an! a policeman
took him in charge. He resisted and ten
blue coa'e ran to tbo econo with clubs
drawn. There was wild confusion and
then tho young man was hustled out
and takon to tho guard bouso with a
contusion over his head that will not
toon disippour.
And it was thuB tho great show camo
to a cIobo.
It wbb a nightmare. To many it has
brought failuro and disaster of tbo
worst sort. There are few peoplo on
tho Midway that aro not bankrupt,
tho3e who are not had unlimited cash
back of them. Ono man who operated
seven shows said bo lost ruiro than bo
put in thorn and that was $40,000. Mrs.
Bowser who ran tho Nebraska Bod
bouse Bays she lost $1,030 during tbo
summer. Ono man sold his hotel at Co
lumbus, Nebraska, took tho money and
put it into a concrssion on tbo Midway.
Ho is now penniless.
But th6o aro but a few of tho many.
Tho management-is deeply in deul; so
deeply that it will naver be ublo to ex
trkato iteolf. It id under an avalancb of
odium that will bury it deep. To rocall
thogiganti fuiluio in tbo future, will bo
to bring to mind Eon.otbing that sbouid
bo forgotten.
