Madame Felicia Romanowska gave a re- cital in classlq music beforg a moderate sized audience at the auditorfum of the South Omaha High school last evening. The steady drizzle of rain kept many away who would have enjoyed the prima donna’s music. She expressed some disap- pointment on account of the very few Polish people present, saying she had hoped to meet many of her own countrymen. Madame Romanowska's voice was up to the expectations of the audience and, they responded readily. The quallty of her tones is sweet. In the lower reglster she has plenty of strength combined with an easy modulation, Miss Victorla Vana of South Omaha played her difficult accompaniments after two rehearsals and won pralses for her skill, In order to glve the Polish people an- other chance to hear their countrywoman the program of last night will be repeated Sunday atternoon.

Lincoln visitors to Omaha who are ac- quainted with state politics as played hy Chief Ofl Inspector Arthur Mullen, are bringing to Omaha intimations that Gov- ernor Shallenberger has declded to risk his chances on a re-election and will not enter the senatorial contest.
