Omaha Girls Hire as “Supes.”

A party of forty society girls combining economy with a lark have hired out as “supes” for Mansfield’s performance of “Henry IV.” at Omaha, Neb. Under the leadership of an Omaha newspaper woman they applied in a body for employment and were taken on for the great London bridge scene in the fourth act. The jgirls after two hours’ drill were able to give voice to their greeting in a fairly creditable way. The girls engaging in the venture belong to a well known set which has given a number of charitable entertainments and is possessed of more or less dramatic ability.
