L I ! N~ P NOW FOR THE FESTIVITIES Knights of Ak-Bar-Ben Oloss Initiation Senten at Their Den, OVER NINE HUNDRED MEMBERS ON ROLL Cheers Are Given for Gus Rense Gecrge West, Whose Services to the Order Are M, Al reciated. The gavel has fallen for the last time on the proceedings of the Knights of Ak- Sar-Ben of the season of 1902, and the few days which remain for the knights and their assistants will be devoted to prepa- ration for the parades and the grand ball A large crowd was present on the last night, several candidates passing through the gates. From out of the city came men from half a dozen ctates, so that every avallable seat was filled whem the chafr- man called the meeting to order. A ban- ner was prominently displayed bearing the words, ““Over Nine Hundred Members.” Howard H. Baldrige was the principal speaker, who paid high tribute to the work of the society. Remarkable scores at the games were made by C. 8. Elgutter, J. C. Kinsler and I. J. Dunn. F. I. Foreman of Baltimore is not only very good at base ball, but he is an all-round sport, taking off most of the “dough” in the finals. An especial brew of beer, very popular with those who did not drink it, had been provided for the luncheon, and was soon exhausted by the demands made upon it. At the speaking which followed the games & short talk was made by the chalrman, who said that all persons who take places on floats should be at the den at 6:30 p. m. Baturday, September 27, as the first float will leave the den about 7 o'clock. He in- sisted upon this, as it will be neceseary to give the parade on schedule time. The first drill will take place Monday night at 8 o'colek. Rev. E. F. Trefs spoke briefly, paying tribute to the work of Gus Rengze, and say- ing that he hoped to see the day that the order would be properly housed. At the conclusion of this talk three cheers were wlv for the superintendent, Gus Renze, who responded briefly, calling for chee for eGorge West, who has written the Initlatory services for several years. The cheers were given with right good will and Mr. West responded in a few words. Among the Visitors. Among the out-of-town visitors were: From Nebrask: P. Larson, C. H. Bal. duft, J. W.

Willard Bean After viewing “Corfanton’ one is almost forced to exclaim as did Sheba at Solomron's magnificence, “The half has not been told me.” No good reason exists why a power- ful play should not come out of Utah. In flelds of art the Mormon has achieved no great distinction, and yet his productions in architecture, music, and literature have served, if they have not satisfled, his peo- ple. It may be that his aspirations have leaped out to a wider world. At any rate, he was not forbldden to “make any graven image or likeness of anything that is in heaven or in earth or the waters under the earth,” and his light has finally flashed forth. It may be a meteor's fiight, or it may be & new star in the frmament of art; only time can answer this, but Orestes U. Bean has certainly given to the world a play of power and, what is better than that, a play of purity. Vice has a large part in the pl hut is introduced only for the pur- pose of showing how hideous sin really is. It affords the sable background against which the bright hues of virtue are dis- played to shine the brighter by the con- trast. And to the embodiment of this lofty idea Mr. Bean has brought the gift of po- etic expression and the blessing of artistic imagination, and the working out of his thought has resulted in a dramatically strong play dressed in appropriately at- tractive garments. It is not the purpose to take up the play in detal “Corfanten’ is not perfect, nor would one expect it so, but the plece most thoroughly justifies all that has been said in its praise. It is given with an fnfinitude of pains, and presents a remarkable succession of plctures from end to end. Its story is simple. A deeply religlous people under- takes to work the conversion of a thought- less, which stands as a buffer between the devout and a savage race that aims at the destruction of both. Corfanton, son of the prophet, is converted by the miracle which strikes down Korihor, the scoffer, and heads the mission which undertakes to accomplish the alliance sought by preaching the true gospel. He s thwarted in the moment of his triumph through the wiles of a fallen woman, who repents too late. Stung by shame and remose, he makes a new resolve, and finally saves his people. As a suplot the inevitable thread of love runs a devious way to a satistactory conclusion. Pervading all the play is a deep religlous thought, which, Lowever, does not at any time dominate the human intérest of the story. In Mr. Joseph Haworth's hands Corlanton becomes a reality. This actor has fairly realized all that was promised for him, and stands pre-eminent on the American stage today as an {llustrator of romantic tragedy. His physique and splendid volce afford an ideal medium for the exploitation of his ex- celent artistic thought. His support is al- most uniformly good. Charles Ray Bower, as Shiblon, brother of Corianton, a rel fous zealot with an unsounded depth of fr ternal love, and James H. Lewis, as Korihor, the blasphemer, are actors of unusual merit. Miss Agnes Roseland, as Isabel, the siren, regard belng emphasized by the bearing of Mr. Haworth during their strong scene in the second act. Miss Thals Magrane has the Juvenile part of Relfa, and does it very weil. No better staged play was ever seen at the Boyd and the cliorus and ballet incidental to its production are marvellously refresh- Ing, the chorus being selected from the Tab- ernacle cholr of Sat Lake City, a recom- mendation sufficlent, and the ballet being recruited from among the fairest of Utah daughters. A falrly good audience warme applauded the play last night. “Corlanton” will be at the Boyd for the rest of the week, with matinees on Wednes- day and Saturday. Ringling Bros’ Circus. ‘‘Christmas comes but once a year and now ‘tis almost here,” runs the little ditty. Ringling's circus, like the giad Yuletide, comes but once a year, and now it's come and gone. That's the only sad feature to it. It's a pity that Christmas and Ringling's both can't come on every day in the year, or stay longer when they do come, they both bring such universal pleasure. What better proof of the general popular- ity of the great show and the universal | pleasure it glves than the admiring and cheering thousands that packed the ma moth tents at both performances yesterda Surely no one who could have gonme, or at least who could have gotten inside the tent, did not go, for the tent was bulged out on all sides, almost punctured in places, and then some. Pa and mammas, grandpa- pas and grandmas, Aunt Mary, Malinda and Sarah and Uncle Jeb, Josiah and John Henry were all there, besides Aunt Lucy's ben and Cousin Em and all of their folks and the hired man. Then there were Chawley and Augu L. Stevanus and ‘mll ‘of “them boys.” Tt was a typical circup crowd in the afternoon and another typleal clreus crowd in the night. And it was “the real thing” in the show line on both occasions. Never has this great aggregation of wonders appeared to better advantage than it did at these two performances yesterday. Riogling Bros.' clrcus has a completeness about it that gives it the alr of substantiality and places it be- yond the pale of the ordinary show. They bave a wonderful collection of animals and these animals do some wonderful thing But the wild animals, tamed to sult, a not all—there are people who are equally as remarkable in thelr line. All the per- formances and exhibitions are as unique and interesting as could be seen under a circus canopy. o Recital for Band. . H. Wright, L. L. C.

SETTLE THE TEXT BOOK CONTROVERSY “Stepping Stoones of Literature” to Be Used in the Pablie Schools—Place Ban on Boys Who Smoke. More than four hours were consumed by the Board of Education last evening in tho transaction of the business of the meeting and most of that time was occupled in contention over rules of ‘order or ques- tions of privilege. In spite of the pro- nounced disposition on the part of some of the members to work at cross purposes with one another, the session was not barren of results, for the work of restoring salaries to their status prior to the cut of last January was practically completed, and the earnestly debated question of the | introduction of, *'Stepplag Stones to Litera- ture” was settled, for the time being at least, and various other matters which to deal with, and recommended that the matter be dropp:d. The report was adopted. |/ On recommendation of the committee on buildings and property the bid of W. P Deverell to bulld & smokestack and coal room at the high school of hard sand brick was accepted. Thefe were six bids and that of W. P. Deverell was the lowest. The committee on boundaries reported ad- versly on the application of F. A. Kilker, a resident of Benson, from free tuition in the high school for his children on the ground that he is a taxpayer of this city. The com- mittee stated that the case was similar to a number of others in which the board had required that a tuition fee be paid and that the law did not grant free tuition to children, even though their parents owned taxable property within the school district The report was adopted. The resignations of Edna Harney Water man, Elizabeth E. Phillipps and Grace Mc Cauley were accepted. The customary reports of the comptroile and city treasurer showing the conditicn of the funds of the board were accepted and placed on file. Will Do All This for Yeu.

President Barnard was the only member absent and the chair was occupled by Vice President Howard. The committee on salaries having had before it the resolutions of Messrs. Wood and W. F. Johnson, proposing the increase of certain salaries, recommended as a substitute for both of those measures that the salaries of the principal and teachers of the high school and the supervisors of kindergartens, music and drawing, and the superintendent of instruction, be restored to the amounts respectively which these employes were recelving at the time of the adoption of the present rules, January 6, 1902, Restores the Old Rates. W. F. Johnson moved to amend the report by incorporating a provision that all teach- ers who would have been entitled to an increase by reason of term of service be given the natural increase, and the mo- tion to amend was adopted by fourteen afirmative votes. Finding the board In so Iiberal a mood, Mr. Johnson offered a fur- ther amendment to place the salary of J. F. Woolery, second assistant principal of the high school, at $140, on the ground that he had not been given the increase which his advancement in position entitled him to and was only drawng $130 per month. Robert Smith was unwilling to agree to that unless Miss Kate McHugh, first as- sistant principal, was advanced from $1,590 per year to $1,800, and offered a substitute amendment fixing both of the salaries at the figures named. This amendment was also accepted by unanimous vote of those present, as was still another increasing the salary of J. F. Wigman, teacher of manual training, from $100 to $110 per month, and the report with all of those amendments was adopted by a vote of 12 to 2, Messrs. Levy and McIntosh voting In the negative. A repori of ihe commitiee o sala recommending that the pay of Thomas Fitz- gerald, custbdian of the high school, be raised to $95 per month, was adopted by the same vote of 12 to 2. Stepping Stomes Adopted, The committee on textbooks and courso of study renewed . its recommendation that “Stepping Stones to Literature” be adopted for gradual introduction into the schools above the second grades, specifying, how- ever, that the introduction should be in accordance with the rules mow In force, which in effect defer the use of the books until the opening of the mext school year. The presentation of this report opened a general and animated discussion as to the desirability of making any change and the wisdom of making a change at this time to take effect next ye: J. J. Smith, chalrman of the committee which had reported, stated that in response to letters he had recelved replies from all and thirty-two of thirty-four favored a change from the Appleton readers. From a list of textbooks named in the letter twenty-two of the principals had selected he “Stepping Stones” as their preference. Robert Smith questioned the fairness of certaln members of the committee in the wording of that letter to which Mr. J. J. Smith bad referred and read from a copy of the letter to show that it was so worded as to convey to the pripcipals the informa- tion that the committee had already de- cided upon that particular book and desired that the preference expressed should be in consonance with that idea. A motlon on the part of W. F. Jobnson to postpone the report until the second meeting in October, on the ground that there was no hurry abou adoping new books for nex year, was lost by a vte of 11 to § and the committee report was adopted. A motion by Mr. McIntosh to suspend the rules to adopt a resolution to have the change of books take effect at once was ruled out of order on the ground that the time had been set, and a motion hy W. F. Johnson to rescind the action of the board as to the time of adoption was laid on the table until the mext regular meet- ing. On recommendation of the committee on text books and course of study, Willlams & Roge! were adopted for use In the high school and 275 copies will be or- dered; also twenty-four text books on shorthand elther of the Graham or Munson system, as the teacher of ehorthand may select. A report of the committee on supplies was adopted providing for the purchase of & pair of parallel bars and other gymna- slum apparatus amiounting in all to about $125. Penalty for Smoking. From the committee on rules there were two reports as to the matter of dealing with smoking among the students of the high school. The majority report, signel by Mr. Mclntosh and Robert Smith, rec- ommended the amendment of the rules ap- plying to military instruction In such & manner as to provide that ereafter in the high school no young men who smokes clgarettes be promoted to a position a: officer in the cadet regiment.” The minority report, which was from Mr, Funkhouser, was simply less positive in its wording and recommended that it be un- derstood that in making promotions in the cadet regiment the question of whether a young man used tobacco or mot would be taken into consideration. After some dis- cussion the minority report was lost and the majority report adopted. A report from the committee on kinder- gartens recommending that a kindergarten department be added to the Beal school was adopted. The committee on high school recom- mended that in accordance with the sug- gestions of the principal of the high school the girls who had elected to take gymna- slum work be required while in the gym- naslum to wear suits consisting of bloom- ers, blouse, stockings and shoes and that certain changes be made in the shower baths for convenience In the gymuasium work. The report was adopted Ne Compulsory Vacclunation. On the resolution of Mr. Cermak provid- Ing for vaccination as & requisite for ad- mission to the schools the judiclary com- mittee reported that after having conferred with the attorney the committee had be- come convinced that compulsory vaceina- fion was a subject for the health & irt- Pearce | ment rather thea the Board of l\‘lunuon‘ show grounds at 7.2.

Morgan, an employe of the Union Pacific shops, was assaulted on the streets yesterday and lost considerable blood as a consequence. Morgan did not know his assallant, nor did he know on what street the assault occurred. He went to the police station shortly before 1 o'clock and told Captain Haze that he was standing on the street watching the parade when a man addressed him and showed him a union card. The stranger asked Morgan to stop work at the shops. This Morgan refused to do, and the stranger, sald Morgan, struck him in the side of the head, and then lost himselt in the crowd. Morgan bled consid- erably from the right'éar, He was afraid to go to the shope aloné and an officer was detailed to take him there. He gave a de- ecription of his assallant to the police. “Garland” Stoves snd Ranges Awarded first prize, Parls, 1900; Buffalo, 1901, Fire Damages n Cottage.

A meeting of the Board of Education was held Monday night, with President Miller in the chair and all members present. One of the features was the opening of bids for coal supplies for the schools. The coal advertised for was mine run, to be deliv- ered In sealed box cars at South Omaha, free on board. When the bids were opened it was decided that the board had made an error and that it would be better to advertise again and state that the coal was to be delivered at the school houses, wherel it would be needed. All coal bought by the school district must be welghed over the city scales. This latter provision was not made in the former advertisement for bids, but it will be included in the next.

Antonla Vicek, Omaha SUNSTROKE INSURANCE When the summer's heat gets about 90 degrees, you are liable to be sunstruck any time you are out in the sun, unless you take the proper precautions. Sev- eral years ago, the writer of this, who has spent much of his life in the tropics, thought he was safe from sunstroke. One day he collapsed, remained uncon- scious for five hours, and at times his life was dispaired of. As a matter of fact, any person whose stomach and bowels are in bacrshapc in the summer time, is liable to be sunstr_uck in temperature that would be harmless under normal fonquns. That’s all there is to it. Stomach and bowels full of festering, fermenting refuse that forms acids and gases, raise the heat of the body and blood many degrees, Scientists have found that natives of the South Sea Islands, living on laxative fruit, bananas, cocoanuts, bread-fruit, have a temperature 20 degrees lower than that of white men who are careless about their food or their bowels. It has been found in years of experience, that a CASCARET Candy Cathartic taken at bed-time every night will keep the body clean and cool inside all day, and forms a safe and thoroughly reliable form of sunstroke insurance. , 196, 56, 30, Naver seld in ped C. €.
