THE O tATTA DAILY BEE : SUN DAT , JULY 28 , 1899.
AMUSEMENTS.
'Mlilmimmcr ' the dullest season of the
theatrical year. A great portion of the
theater-going public , instead of remaining
in the hot city to awolter , la enjoying Its an
nual vacation in the country , or at some
cool watering place , where It Is possible
, to get a breath of air. And yet , In eplto of
this fact the attendance at both of tlio
local theaters lost week was remarkably
Rood , better , In fact , than It has been slnco
Way 1. Kopeclally noticeable was the Increase -
' , crease In the attendance at Boyd's theater
\ over that of the week before , which Is ovl-
, ' < lcnce that the people nro beginning to ap
preciate the splendid productions of the
well-known and popular plays Jlr. Wood
ward's company is giving. At the Troca-
1 doro the attendance was good , but In no
| may compared with that nt Boyd's. Omaha
i jicoplo nro beginning to tire of vaudeville
after having it constantly for a year and
? n half , and must bo given a rest from It for
, i a tlmo at least. It was a wloa plan of the
I management of the Trocadoro to change the
f ' business of tbo theater to comic opera. Thla
j Is to bo the last week of vaudeville there
' nnd next week It will bo closed temporarily
r in order to allow some changes to bo made
f in the stage and then bo reopened again on
t August C with a production of "Said Pasha"
' by the Trocadoro Operatic Stock company.
;
J Considered as n whole , the production of
f llclnsco nnd Fylo's pretty little comedy
drama , "Tho Girl I Left Behind Mo , " glvcp
I by the Woodward Stock company nt Boyd's
| theater last week , compared very favorably
' with these presentations by any of the dlf-
' foront traveling companies that bavo been
i Been In it here This is saying considerable ,
when It is remembered that It was first
, s played In Omahatby one of Charles Froh-
inan's companies , but nevertheless it is not
overestimating the Woodward production a
( particle. Mr. Unos , under whoso stage dlrec-
1 tlon the play was given fast week , was for
eomo time a member of Mr. Frohman's coin-
, pany , during which period he played the
part of Private Jones. Ho thus became very
familiar with every little detail of the piece ,
which enabled him , with the capable Wood
ward company , to give an almost flawless
production. In the criticism which appeared
i in last Monday's Bee some reversal of opin
ion must bo made , out of fairness to the
different members of the company. The
criticism was written after the first per
formance , which with stock organizations
Is considered a dress rehearsal , and what
few rough edges there may bo are always
I > ollshe < l oft before the second performance.
Miss Kcnnark and Mr. Granger were criti
cised for falling In what might properly be
termed an anti-climax In the second act.
However , during the entire -week after the
first performance this scene was beautifully
< lone by both , for -which they deserve only
words of praise. Hal Davis toned down the
comedy part of Private Jones so that It was
played next to perfect. Ono Important thing
that was overlooked In Monday's criticism
was the make-up and actions of the two
supernumeraries who appeared as Indians
In the council scene between General Ken-
nlon nnd the Indian chief Scar Brow , In
act I. Walking on and off the stage as they
Old 1 = * hat stolid Indian manner with make
ups as true to life as greaao paints , blankets ,
Ibeads nnd feathers could possibly make
them , they made complete ono of the pret
tiest pictures In the piece. In this the work
of a thorough stage director , such as only
Wilson Enos Is , stood out so brilliantly that
It was Impossible for the audience to over
look It , and the scene did not fall once dur
ing the -week to receive the liberal applause
which It deserved. Additional praise Is duo
> to Charles Lothian for his decidedly clever
Intorpretatlon of the part of Dr. Penwlck ,
the young English medical graduate. It Is
I a. comparatively small part , but Mr. Lothian
| made It ono of the best and most Interest-
I i Ing , Another smalt part that was lost sight
of iMondaywas that of Orderly McGlynn ,
which Harry Long brought out In a praise
worthy manner.
For this week that popular light comedy ,
"Charley's Aunt , " will bo the bill , and It
will certainly afford the members of the
company ample opportunity to display their
versatility.
Manager 'Burgesa ' of Boyfl's theater re
turned Friday morning from Now York city ,
where ho went some weeks ago on a business
trip. Ho seemed much elated over his suc
cess in securing the largest number of big
attractions the theater has ever booked. Re
garding the results of his trip ho said :
"Tho managers of the big eastern suc
cesses all scorned willing and anxious to
bring their plays to Omaha during the com
ing season and I did not find the least diffi
culty in booking the best of thorn , including
'The Christian , ' 'The Little Minister , ' 'Zaza'
nnd many others. 1 will bo able to give you
a complete list of them sometime during
the coming week , but you can say now that
Omaha theater-goers will see the largest
number and ibcst lot of new plays during
the coming winter thnt over came to this
city before in a single season. Last winter
they were all having big runs In the east
and would not come we t. Now the oasl
has seen them all and they are ready to
como to us. Will they bo presented by the
orlclual casts ? With one * or two exceptions ,
yea. I would not care to have them play
unless I could get them with the same people
plo that helped to make them successful.
None of my bookings are for leas than three
nights and many of them for n week. The
season will be opened September 2 with
Sidney Ilosenfeld's 'Brown in Town , ' which
made such a hit in Chicago last win
ter. There nro very few theatrical people
in New York at the present tlmo. Most a
them are spending the summer in Europe
Before I left , however , they wore com
mencing to return in order to get ready for
the opening of the Now York season. "
During the last week the change of .policy
which is to bo inaugurated nt the Troca-
dare theater August C has been the princi
pal topic in local theatrical circles. ' .Manager
Cole was the first to introduce high-class
vaudeville in tbls city , and now ho shows
Jila progrcgsivoness by introducing another
Innovation In the way of n comic opera stock
company. Ho gives it as his opinion that
owing to the great amount of vaudeville en
tertainment Omaha theater-goers have been
Blven , the sameness of wblcu is bound to
become tiresome , they want something dif
ferent. Ho 'has therefore decided to gratify
their desires by giving them an opportunity
to sea some of the best comlo operas at pop
ular prlcou , Hlolso Mortimer , who has for
years been under the Qrau operatic manage
ment , Is to bo the leading prlma donna. She
lias the reputation of possessing a eplendld
oparntlo voice as well as being a handsome
woman. Tfio mi nun of the balance of the
principals will bo announced next Sunday
n > woil as the complete repertoire of opera :
to bo given , Tbo opening ono is to bo "Salt
Pasha. "
Manager Jake Rcscntbal of the Crelghton
Orpheutn , who is at present managing Fair
mont Park in Kansas City for the Orpbeum
people , was In the city ono day last week
looking after builnres matters pertaining to
the Orpheum here , which is being redecor
ated. When asked If the Orpbeum company
was satisfied with Its vaudeville venture in
thl city , Mr. Itoseiitlml suldVoaro : more
than satisfied. Believe mo , when wo came
to Omaha wo expected to lose money the
first eeasou. Wo did not mind this , how
ever , as long as wo knew there was a pos-
alblllty of getting money-making patronage
after your theater-goers were once made to
renllio what good vaudeville cntertalnmcn
_ \Yo ueede-3 a theater bero iu order to
break the Jump that performers have to
rnnko between Chicago end San Francisco ,
during which they lese n week's time , nnd
vo had to pay them for that time , where now
wo hava a house in Omaha , and expect to
have one In Denver this fall , so you can see
the policy. Wo should bo satisfied If wo paid
expenses In Omaha , but , bellcvo me , wo have
made money , and a lot of lt ( out of our
Omaha house , nnd I can assure you that the
company is moro than satisfied with the vcn-
uro. Wo shall reopen the theater the latter
part of next month and will offer a list of
ittractlons oven better than these presented
ast season. Among some of the headllners
wo liavo booked I will mention Robert Man-
ell , Fny Templcton , llobert Downing , Laura
'oyco ' Hell and others of this caliber. Wo
hnve had n now stage put in and are re-
carpeting nnd decorating the theater

After a week of romantic and military
drama the patrons of the Woodward Stock
company will have another opportunity to
vltness n bright farco-comedy. Tills after
noon atid night and during the ensuing week
ho bill will be Brandon Thomas' lively
nrco-comedy , "Charley's Aunt , " which hith
erto has been presented In this city by
Charles Frobman's companies only , but
Milch has been equally as successful ns a
stock play. It was put on at San Fran
cisco soon after It was made available for
uoh purposes and Instead of running for n
Ingle week , as intended , it proved so pop-
tlar that It was retained for four consecutive
weeks. It will bo remembered by these who
lave enjoyed the comical situations , the
aughablo embarrassments and the various
complications of this play that it Is built
upon incidents in the lives of several Ox-
ord boys with moro mlsciilcf than Judg-
ncnt in their make-up. Ono of thcao Is
Lord Dabberly , n young fellow of obliging
mturo and no particular force of character.
When several of his chums are disappointed
n the non-arrival of the Brazilian aunt of
ono of thorn , IJabberly , In order that a sup-
ior that has been arranged In view of the
aunt's coming might not bo broken up ,
agrees to dross In character and impersonate
he lady from Brazil In order that the pro-
> rlety may bo observed in the presence of
wo young women , with whom the chums
ITO In love. This scheme is carried out and
t Involves a continuation of the dlegulso and
ho deception. To add to the discomfiture
of poor Babberly , an old guy named Spettl-
juo falls in love with him , or rather with
the supposed aunt's reputed money , and
makes his life miserable by his persistent
voolng. Finally the aunt herself appears
upon the scene and with her a sweet little
girl , an orphan , whom Babberly had pre
viously met and whom he fondly loves. The
situations are exceedingly funny and the
) lay is sure to be a big hit at the Boyd , for
t Is not only along the lines that have been
nest popular with the patrons of this com-
> any , but the caste Is said to bo one of the
lost the company has yet made up. Bab-
> erly will , of course , be played by Hal Davis ,
ho light comedian of the company , but there
ire also good parts for most of the leading
people of the organization.
This being the last week of vaudeville at
: ho Trocadero theater , Manager Cole has
provided a bin of excellent merit through
out , and one that promises to be a fitting
wlndup to this theater's existence ns a
vaudeville house. The acts Included In the
alii are all representative ones In line. Wil
liams and Stone , who are the headllners ,
offer a specialty of which they are the
originators. It Is called singing and talking
rag-time opera , and is said to have created
a furore In the Now York vaudeville
houses.
Scott and Wilson nro comedy acrobats ,
whoso act is said to bo not only the funniest ,
but the very best in this lino. Short comedy
sketches are arways popular , and especially
so If they bo well written and properly in
terpreted. Charles Honwitz is ono of the
'best ' short sketch writers lu the country ,
whllo Mr. nnd Mrs. Gene Hughes are as
clover interpreters of comedy as Horwitz is
n writer , therefore. In his "A Matrimonial
Substitute" the patrons of the theater should
have n rare treat.
Le Clalr and Hayes como with a reputation
of having a singing and dancing act that Is
a winner. They both possess splendid voices ,
while the genuine Southern plcannlnles they
introduce in the act are said to be talented
negro vocalists. Domonico is an aerial con
tortionist , who comes direct from Europe ,
and in his act a big novelty is promised.
The Trocadoro theater will bo closed during
next week in order that some changes maybe
bo made in the stage , preparatory for the
comic-opera ( productions which are to be
put on , commencing August 6. During the
week the theater is closed Prof. Frank Lo-
renzes' Challenge orchestra win give free
concerts in the garden , which will be open
each evening from 7 to 12.
The beautiful full moon and clear skies
of these evenings make a trip on the etcara-
bnat , Jacob lUchtman , doubly enjoyable.
The romarknblo success of these steamboat
trins Is easily exnlalnod hv thn Inolr nt
opportunity which Omnhans have for pfeas-
uro on * the water , and now that the city
\\atcr works can be Inspected on tho'after-
iioon trip of the steamboat and the fairy-like
scene presented by the exposition grounds
at night can bo viewed on the 8 o'clock trip ,

Langtry will return to the London stage
August 31. Her company will Include Charles
Hawtry , Ferdinand GaUsclialk , George
Grosssmlth , Jr. , nnd Lily Hanbury.
Augustln Daly's will seems to confirm the
general impression in theatrical circles that
Ada Helmn had been for four years a part
ner In his enterprises instead of a bolarled
performer.
The Inability of Mmo. Hojano to act
"Zaza" lu London In French is said to be
duo to Charles Frohman's ownership of all
rights to the play lu England and not to
tbo objection of the censor ,
A scene representing an American gar
den of tbo last century , on the banks ol
the "Beautiful Blue Danube , " will bo one
of the inviting stage pictures In Alice Niel
sen's coming light opera production.
A German critic recently had to pay a flne
of $7 because ho said that an actrcea had
not played a part well through her Tack ol
personal refinement. The words In which
that opinion \\na expressed were decided to
be an insult.
Alice Nielsen will sail from San Francisco
on the steamer "Yucatan" on the 26th ol

General Miles is fond of the theater ,
but will never attend n military play. "Tho

B. Smith hlo Initial effort outside comic
opera , barring the misfortune shown in
Chicago in 1888 under title of "Tho Scare
crow. " Miss Irwln's tour will begin In
September.
An Intimate friend of the Into Augustln
Daly said that , contrary to general opinion ,
the manager did not regard the stage ns
having n great moral mission. Ho thought
ts mission was to give pleasure. Ho be
lieved , however , that one of the great plays
of the future would bo on a religious sub
ject.
The Dictionary work goes on , and the
publishers are rushed with orders which ,
however , seem to ho unaccompanied with a
cash stipend as an act of good faith , not that
It Is needed ifrom a financial standpoint , but
simply to ahoy * that intentions are honor
able.
able.Amateur
Amateur Ono -who follows a study of
art from n. love for it , instead of from any
liopo of gain , as In the case of a profes
sional who makes it his business. Some
amateurs , however , forget this , nnd
wishing to cko out a living which their
regular business is not lucrative enough to
supply , they will follow up the engagements
of professional people , and by cutting the
price , secure engagements , and thus deplete
the treasury of him or her who earns bread
and beefsteak by ono talent only. This Is
very praiseworthy , of course , for It shows
what very smart people eomo amateurs can
be , and it makes the musician work for next
to nothing. And why not ? Of course , thcro
are amateurs and amateurs. And the right
kind of amateur is an inspiration and a
source of Joy.
Humbug A Bpoclea of bug discovered
some time ago , and very popular In America ,
according to the eminent naturalist and
animalologlst , Prof. P. T. Barnum. The
American 'people ' , ho said , liked to be tickled
by this particular bug. Thcro are many
different kinds of the- same species , and
they are classified in sections , the musical
humbug , the Hobson kissing bug , the dra
matic humbug , the critical humbug , the sea-
serpent humbug , the handkcrchleg blessing
humbug , the clerical humbug , the political
humbug , the Midway humbug nnd others
too numerous to mention.
Discord The name of a famous apple ,
which was Instrumental in causing the so
ciety editor of the Troy Gazette to have a
high-class scandal In ono eventful Sunday
issue. A young gentleman named Paris was
Involved , together with three of the fairest
social successes of Greece's four hundred
Juno , Venus and Minerva. This apple has
been rolling ever since , and has caused much
trouble amongst musicians. Any eye couM
see that this apple troubles pupils. In fact ,
since a very indiscreet woman took that first
bite , hundreds of years ago , the trouble has
been 'brewing ' , and now even music Itself ,
the gift of the gods , has that ono element of
discord contr'ncd in the otherwise pleasant
fruit.
Part-Song A song which is sung partly
by one voice and partly by others , all parts
making , In the combination of sounds , lull
harmony. Part-songs are usually of a secu
lar nature.
Sacred Music A title given by act of
courtesy to some of the most distressing
music ever thrust upon an Innocent con
gregation. It la usually sung in churches
and Is unfortunately not confined to any
creed. As an illustration of the words to
some of these songs one might select these :
When the morning sun is shining ,
And the stars have gone to sleep ,
Then my heart begins a-plnlng
Aa I woken from my sleep.
Fining for t'he ' home of beauty ,
AVhlch -waiting now for me ,
Over by the onyx fountain ,
And beside- the light blue sea ,
nefraJn
Light blue sea/ blue s a blue sea ,
Thou art waiting now for ma , for me ,
I can see , I can see , only thee only thee ,
My precious , precious sea. blue sear-light
bluet sea.
The last three words should ibe sung very
slowly and with great expression , reminis
cent of barber-shop harmony , otherwise
known as "Coon Chords. "
There is money In this kind of sacred
music. Epworth leagues and assemblies and
Endeavor societies demand It as a rule.
Of course there arc some who know the
difference between that kind of stuff and
the real music.
Key < A necessity in music. Music Is di
vided into several families of tones called
keys. The notes on a piano or organ are
called keys. Musicians must have keys.
And it is often desirable that they should
nave long locks. It sometimes helps them
in business.
At the Auditorium of the exposition last
week there was given a children's day con
cert , on which , occasion a number of school
children were entertained raosti delightfully
by Lieutenant Dan Godfrey and his band
In the afternoon. At this concert it was
noticed by a bystander and commented upon
that out of these hundreds of children there
ivoro scarcely a score stood up when the na
tional anthem was being played. There Is
a good deal of musical cant about patriotic
music , to bo sure , and there is much jingoIsm -
Ism parading under the guise of single-
minded patriotism , but there are times when
the strains of patriotic music should be
beard , when it is silent ; there are times
when It should be reverenced and acknowl
edged far moro than It Is now. Patriotism
never hurt a country , It never hurt n man ,
and it never will hurt a child. It seems
to a man on the outside that if these
children wore taught In scnool that the "Star
Spangled Banner" meant more than a few
Inches of red , wblto and blue bunting , that
it was the symbol of that very institution
of freedom which makes education possible ,
that It was worthy of respect , and should
be respected in a tangible way , namely , by
standing and uncovering every tlmo it was
publicly played , It would have an effect
upon the minds of Impressionable children
which would bavo beneficial results on the
community ,
The British band has certainly taught us
a lesson by tbo courtesy with which it al
ways stands whllo playing the American
national anthem. Some people on the Plaza
asked last we-ek , "What are the people stand
ing up for ? " ,
