THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY JUNE 14, 1902 BIG NICHT AT ROYAL DEN Ak-Bar-Ben Receives Nebraska Undertakers with Bpecial Osremonies. SEVERAL BRIEF AND HAPPY SPEECHES urial of the Hatchet" Initiatory Services of Two Years Ago Revived Expecially for the Oceasion. Scene from One hundred and sixty-four brave and worthy esquires from Nebraska and a few | from some other states were enrolled upon the parchments of the kingdom of Quivera Thureday at a special communication of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben VIL In homor of the guests, most of whom were members of the Nebraska Undertakers' assoclation, in whose honor the special meeting was held, there was a variation in the usual program and the knights hearkened back two years to the Initlatory service of 1600, giving the scene of the “burial of lh" hatche! ome of the strongest scenes In the initiatory service of that year and one which on account of its suggestiveness was considered particularly appropriate for the occaslon. The work was done principally by those members who had taken the parts two years previously With this exception the ceremony of en- rollment of the present year was followed. It was undertakers’' night and the games and amusements were turned over to the visitors The highest scores in single games were made by 8. H. Reppert of Plerce, Neb., and Albert Minds, a rank outsider, who works in the postoffice at Detroit, Mich. In the games where they scored bigh the work was remarkably bril- liant and elicited much applause from the newly made knights and others who sus- pended operations to watch the plays. Winners in the Finals. In the finals, where strong playing and nerve tell against the greatest brilliancy, the star players, those who carried the circulating medium away, were Peter Mer- ton of Blue Hill, whose great nerve was shown by the hazards he took at critical moments; J. O. Walroth of Edgar, whose luck was phenomen. P. C. Heafey, who faced the tables and the odds with an abandon which excited comment; E. Mead of Chadron, whose play was considered the most scientific, and Val Becker, who lives in Council Bluffs, which may account for the way in which he played. At the conclusion of the games there were speeches. The hit of the evening was made by George H. Brown of Superior, secretary of the Undertakers’ assoclation, who spoke feelingly upon the relations of Omaha to the state and the good fellow- ship shown in the entertalnment of the visiting delegates, not only at the den, but in all other places about the city.

Another overflow audience was at the Boyd last night, when the curtain rose ou the first act of “The Three Musketeers,” presented by the Ferris Stock company. Mr, Ferris has modified the plece H some respects, notably the omission of the pro- logue, adding thereby to the movement of the play and eliminating some of its grew- some features. As D'Artagnan Mr. Ferris wears the costume and arms of the Mo quetalre with much the same grace as marked him when accoutred with some- brero, top-boots and six-shooter as the Missour! sheriff. He entere boldly into the spirit of the plece and makes the swash- buckling hero the genuine article. Miss Hayward has & sympathetic role as Loulse and brings to the part much natural eweet- ness and artless grace. The supporting cast s good and the staging s excellent. The plece will run the rest of the week. Gentry Bros'. Show. Gentry Bros. have a penchant for com- ing to Omaha and saying, “Oh, no, there is nothing new about our exhibition. It ls just as good as it was last year, no better and no worse.” But when you find your way Into a tent and see 406 animals there on parade array and have it demonstrated beyond a doubt that all but four of them are skilled actors this statement is diffi- cult to belleve. In fact, the trained animal exhibition now being given by Gentry Bros. at Eighteenth and Douglas streets is by far the best thing of the kind that has ever visited Omaha. closed by proposing three cheers from the visitors for the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben and the city of Omaha. These were given with & tiger and were responded to by cheers for the guests by the knights in attendance. W. P. Hohenschuh followed Mr. Brown, speaking on the benefits to be derived from a mixture of business and pleasure. The last speaker was Val Becker, whose stories convulsed theaudience. The usual refreshments closed the evening's program. Ligt or Visitors. The following out-of-town visitors were present at the meeting: J. C. McElhinney, Lyons; W, S. Jones, Tecumseh; C.

R Bader, Fremont; W. 8, Cooper, Holdreg It is not only that there are so many trained animals gathered together; it is not only that the divers acts of a kind that are duplicated nowhere with the same de- gree of precision and proficlency, but what makes the Gentry exhibition most wonder- ful is the absolute absence of all human interference, collusion or connection of any sort. From first to last these little and big animals come in front of the scenes and do thelr little stunts seemingly with all the willpower and initiative of man. In these days when both suggestion and actuality in public performances border so often on the questionable it i& an absolute pleasure to see an exhibition that i totally devold of any symptom of coarseness. That's the Gentry show through and through—clean, spotless. It is almost as pleasing, too, to see a performance that is just what it purports to be, one with real consistency as a justifiable recommenda- tion. Add to this a uniformity in both con- duct and demeanor that cannot be excelled by the strictest disciplined human army of the world and then adduce the final fact that not one act drags, that all parts of the show are good from the start, and you have the Gentry affalr sized up correctly. When forty ponles come out for the open- ing act and go through marvelous military maneuvers without an error the spectator is selzed with the idea that this e cer- tainly the best act of the bill. All the marching movements known these ponles do and one half expects them to take up the setting up exercises and battle forma- tions next. But this is not the best. All the way along the same high standard Is maln- talned. There are three elephants that are simply great, among them the only one in the world that really stands on its head —the Baby Pinto, 26 years of age. BEqually as good are the little Mexican rough riders in their fantastic attire, and the eight ponles who alone in the world do the May- pole dance. Then, of course, the 207 dogs with the organization are smooth as satin, and the little bunch of monkeys who do the conflagration act are the best in the bu: ness. They set their own fire, bring their own apparatus amd put it out all alone. The exhibition continues with two perform- ances today and two Saturday. NOT LOOKING FOR TROUBLE X E. N. Allen, Arapaho W.

NDRY PROPOSITION FAILS ALL NEGOTIATIONS OFF FOR PRESENT Representative of Chicago Conoern Not Able to Make Satisfactory Terms for Establishment of Foundry Here. H. H. Wright, general manager of the Featherstone Foundry and Machine com- | pany of Chicago, who has been in the city since Tuesday investigating labor condl- tions, with a view to establishing an irom foundry at this place, left last night for Chicago. He did not come to an under- standing with the members of the Iron Moulders' union and all negotiations be- tween the company and the union are at an end, at least for the present. This foundry, should it be bullt, would take the place of the foundry mow being torn down by the Union Pacific. It would have a capacity of thirty to forty tons per day and would furnish employment to the moulders formerly employed by the Union Pacific and now on lock-out because of the action of the railroad company in shutting down its foundry and sending its work to the Featherstones in Chicago. Mr. Wright and the executive committeo of the locked-out moulders held several conferences during his stay in the city, and of three written propositions he made to the moulders all were rejected. One, however, was accepted by the committee, but later voted down by the union. “I made the committee a proposition,” said Mr. Wright, “which provided that a bonus of $1,500 be forfeited, subject to the order of the union, in the event of the fail- ure on the part of the Featherstone people to have the foundry erected within ninety days. It also provided that transportation be furnished to members who desired to work during these ninty days in Chicago. When the foundry was completed here the men would be returned at our expense. The proposition provided, further, that the men be paid minimum wages. The moulders to ralse the strike on the Unlon Pacific work. “This proposition was modified to sult the members of the union and was finally agreed upon by the committee. The com- mittee then reported to the union and this afternoon they reported to me that the union voted not to accept it. “The matter of establishing such a plant here has been under consideration since last fall. President Burt of the Union Pa- cific has been instrumental in interesting the Featherstone people in coming here. It was our intention, should we have been able to work Harmonlously with the union, to en- deavor to get the work of other rallroads and bring it to Omaha, which would be something for the town and would furnish employment to a large number of men.” Unlon’s View of Situation. The members of the executive committes of the Iron Moulders' union were seen after the meeting yeslerday afternoon. The chair- man stated that the $1,500 proposition of- fered by the Featherstone people was a bid to get them to go to Chicago and there do scab work for the Union Pacific. “That is all it amounts to,” sald the chairman, “and the union voted it down because we do not intend to be bought. They wanted us to rafse the strike on the Union Pacific. The foundry proposition is only imaginary and we do not belleve the Featherstones are acting In good faith.” The members.of the moulders’ union are iyided as to the proposition of Mr. Wright and considerable feeling kas béen engen- dered. Oné 'tember sald he expressed the sentiment ‘0f ‘Several when he gave out the following interview: “The proposition of the Featherstone company as offered by Mr. Wright was a good one and perfectly fair, It was refected only on a technicality and there was no real difference in what they offered and what we asked. The trouble is there are several members of the union who have lived here a number of years and they do not want to go to Chicago or any- where else to work. They voted against the proposition because it eant that the strike would be declared off. Several members withdrew from the committee because they became disgusted with the mction of the unlon. South Omaha News. A number of taxpayers and others inter- ested in the public schools have called a meeting for tonight at the High school for the purpose of discussing the proposition of constructing at least a portion of the pro- posed High school bullding this summer. The plans for this building were drawn some time ago and, according to the state- ment of the architect, the front or elther of the wings may be constructed separately without marring the symmetry of the struc- ture when completed. As there is need of more school room in the district morth of N street some steps may be taken at the meeting tohight to induce the board to de- fer action on the proposed building in the Second ward. It 1s asserted by those interested that the erection of one of the wings of the pro- posed High school building will obviate the necessity for the building of an addition to the Hawtherne school and that there will then be no need of a bullding so near the Jungmann school at the present time. Mem- bers of the Taxpayers' league and the East Side Improvement club are interested in the meeting to be held tonight and it is expected that there will be & large at- tendance People Want Names. There has been wo much talk lately about the Taxpayers' league and the influence that it bears on the administration of pub- He affairs that the people are beginning to want to know who the members are. Then, again, comes the Antl-Saloon league, with its agitators and a list of names at the head of the editorfal page. This paper has been criticized many times for ite action in using names of persons as officers and promoters of the league who never be- longed or even thought of belonging. There is going to be a request made to have the Taxpayers' league and the Anti-Saloon league show their hands to the extent that they make public their lists of members. Club Stays in Present Quarter For some time past members of the South Omabha club have been figuring on moying into more commodious quarters, but it ap- pears that a suitable lease can not be ar- ranged at this time. It has been decided, therefore, to remain in the present location for the summer. While the quarters now occupled are considered ample by some of the members, others desire to expand, and as there is no lack of funds a move may be made I the fall, when a lease on the prop- erty in view may possibly be secured &les Meet Tonight. Tonight at the troop armory there will be an important meeting of the local lodge of Eagles. All members of the local aerle are urged to attend. Business of importance will be trausacted and then Grand Worthy President Del Cary Smith will deliver an address. During bis brief stop in the eity President Smith will be the guest of the lodge. Wateh Cases Found. 0 Morris Yost, a local reported to the police that his place on N street had been entered and that about sixty watcheases bad been stolen. A panel in the rear door had been bored out and entrance effected lo that way. Yester- day the police found forty-six of the cases planted in the weeds at the rear of the old foundry buildiog on Twenty-sixth street Two or three negroes have been arrested on suspicion, but no charges of a serious na- ture have been filed against them as yet Chief Briggs says the stuff recovered is worth half a dozen dollars. Yost says it is worth $60. Class Exere The class exercises of the pupils of the public achools held at the troop armory last night were well attended. The recitations were good, also the musical selections. The farce presented was not unly amusing, but it was given for the purpose of showing the ability of the pupils in oratory. The pro- gram has been printed before and it was rried out. Littering Streets. city are violating city ordinances by litter- ing the streets with rubbish.
