To the six thousand and odd people who were spectators last night at the spectacular “Last Days of Pompeil” there came troop- ing in upon many of them the beautiful descriptions of Lytton of this fated plac nd there arose on the minds of others brain pictures of the homes of Pliny, Cicero Augugtus Caesar d others of that im mortal brotherhood. 1t had about it the element of the real, the natural, unlike any thing Omaha has ev seen in the line of drumatic and picturesque effects. The unreal was swallowed un in the real, tinsel and trappery were forgotten in the rapld press of events, 1d the shells of the houses were part and parcel of Pompell in '79. Much might bo said of the development of the story, which, while somewhat ana chronistic, is sufficiently truthful to please those who are not looking for flaws in the construction, and quibbling over some of the games and dances indulged in. Even though there is an up-to-date flavor about the pro. duction, and though many of the men's pantaloons show below the togas in a most exasperating manner, et it is safe to say that Omaha ople have seen nothing so signally successful as the first performance of the “Last Days of Pompeil” last night at Courtland beach. . There was a finish hout it that showed careful and conscientious rehearsals. While ‘tis true some of the ballets were just a trifle ragged and the marching of the men re- sembled a go-us-you-please match, the en semble was captivating, the tableaux rich in light and color. Jothing could b2 more entrancing than the reflected pictures of the people along the banks of the lagoon. It was like a bit of fairyland set down in the heart of the west- ern prairies, and the whole w reminiscent of Manhattan beach, where the ' Days of Pompell” was first given to ah American audience. As for the destruction of the city it was a wonderful piece of realism. The terrible thunderings of the mountain, the flowing streams of lava that, in the far, far distance looked not unlike threads of silver, the crash of buildings, the toppling of pillars and pedi- ments all combined to assist the mind in pleturing the horr of that 24th day of ugust, in the year of our Lord 79, when suviug rushed down to the bay. Following the realistic touches which the stage carpenter, the property man, the mas- ter machinist_and the gasworker gave to the spectacular show, came the fireworks, and these have never been excelled in the west. Showers of rockets, bombs, Roman candl floating fountains, water falls and a large number of handsomely designed set pieces drew forth onstant ‘exclamation “Hully Gee!” yellod a small hoy as he saw the gymnastic' monkey turning on a hori- zontal bar, all set forth in fire, “get onto de monk, he's a crackerjack, he is,” and the crowd applauded the utterance. Incidental to the pantomime an hour's specialty performance is given, and it will rank with the best of vaudeville entertain- ments seen in Omaba. There are clever acrobats, fine contortionists, good dancers, on the whole as clever an entertainment as one would wish to see. The “Last Days of Pompeii” inaugurated last evening what promises to be a highly successful season at Courtland beach. It is in every way deserving and has the merit of being absolutely new to the people of the community. As a first night production it was well rounded and today the city will ring with the praises of those who have, under adverse conditions, brought so strong an attraction to the chief city of this com- monywealth. The next performance -will be Thursday evening. e THEIR GOLDEN WEDDING. n and Friends Tender a Surprise to Colonel and Mrs, Armstrong. The children and intimate friends of Colonel and Mrs. George Armstrong gathered at their residence, 990 North Twenty-fourth street, las| ning, to celebrate thelr golden wed- ding. The visit was a complete surprise to the venerable couple, and the evening was spent delightfully in music and a general good time. Light refreshments were served and several selections by the David City Glee club added to the enjoyment of the oc- casion. Colonel Armstrong is one of the oldest citizens of Omaha, his residence here dating back to 1854, He. served two terms as mayor of the city, was probate judge and clerk of the district court, and held the com- mission of senior major in the Second M braska cavalry during the war. During his early ri dence here he was engaged in the brick manufacturing business under the firm name of Bovey & Armstrong, and built the old capitol on the present site of the High school building, and several other prominent buildings of the early city. Both Colonel and Mrs. Armstrong are still young in spirit, and to all appearances are younger than many who have scarcely reached middle life. Three children and five grandchildren are living, all of whom were present last evening. — Fireman and Brakeman Killed.
