Amusements
Attractions at the local theaters last week
Were much moro enjoyable In anticipation
tban they proved In realization. Tho
melodramatic offering of the fore part of
the week wan looked upon as merely n
date-filler In tho booking sheet, and yet
turned out ono of the most gratifying lo
the people who saw It of any of tho week's
plays. It certainly eujoyed tho distinction
of attracting tho largest audiences, Inas
much as tho capacity of the theater was
taxed at each performance. Not much was
expected of Adelaide Thurston and "Sweot
Clover," therefore no ono had reason for
fault-flndlnK. Not so, however, with
Blancho Walsh's new play, "The Hunt for
Happiness." It proved to bo tho keenest
disappointment of tho season. Most peo
ple, knowing so well MIm Walsh's artlstlo
ability aa on actress, bad confidence In her
Judgment In tho choosing of a vehicle for
Its exploitation, that they risked attending
her performances. As far ua tho acting
Itself was concerned, all expectations were
realised. The play Is badly constructed,
tho theme Is unwholcsomo and no naked In
Its realism as to bo actually distasteful.
'Tho character assumed by Miss Walsh
offers somo opportunities for tho display of
emotions, yet, as a whole, Is beneath tho
contempt of an actress of Miss Walsh's
ability.
I It wag somewhat accidental that Miss
.Walsh produced "The Hunt for Happiness"
here. Since tho failure of "Joan of the
'Bword Hand," with which sho opened tho
season, sho has been vainly endeavoring to
find a play sultablo for her. Tor use In
tho Interim sho secured from Mary Man
norlng, who is playing "Jnnlco Meredith"
In tho east, tho righto to produco this play
la territory where Mlsa Mannerlng was not
booked. As tho lattor has dates arranged
for Omaha oarly lu tho spring Mlsa Walsh
could not produco "Janleo Meredith" here.
Bbo was Impressed with tho leading part In
"Tho Hunt for Happiness" and decided to
glvo It a trial here. Tho pleco was first
produced in Des Moines two weeks ngo and
gain In Lincoln the night befdro sho
opened her Omaha engagement. Although
plainly a falluro to her manager, Den Stern,
Miss Walsh, wishing to glvo the play n fair
trial, with tho possible hope of finally mak
ing It win, oontlnued to do It rather tban
cancel her engagements.
Mr. Btorn, under whoso direction Miss
Walsh Is touring, directed tho tours of
Fanny Davenport, and It Is a llttlo surpris
ing to ono in touch with things theatrical
that ho should bo caught as ho Is without a
food play for his star. Mr. Stern ex
plains his present condition as follows: "At
tho beginning of tho season wo had a
plendld production of 'Joan of tho Sword
Hand,' a play I felt certain could not fall.
It cost us In tho neighborhood of $10,000,
but It happened to be ono of the kind that
people do not want and It failed. Of
courso our Investment was gono. I made
Up my mind then not to mako an elaborate
production of another play until I was sure
that tho pcoplo were going to accept It.
The scenario of 'Tho Hunt for Happiness'
was BUbmlttcd to us. We read It over
nd, thinking that it possessed somo merit,
decided to glvo it a trial, with what result
you can aeo for yourself. I did not havo a
pedal production built tor It, and am
therefore not anything out of pockot. Wo
will havo a now play for production Jan
uary 1 that I boltovo will surely bo a win
Ber. It is called 'La Madeline' and Is by
H. J. W. Dam, a playwrltor of reputation
nd ability. It Is a modern Canilllo and
tho scenario Is one of the most dramatic
X havo ever read. Omaha theater-goers
ro not any moro disappointed than Miss
Walsh, and I regret exceedingly that wo
could not have given them something bet
ter, but thero is another day coming, as
tho saying goes, and wo will try to tako
full odvantago of it."
In the revival of the melodrama thero is n
kopoful sign, Indeed, a bow of rare promise,
After tho unspeakable French farce, the
too plainly-spoken "problem" play, tho
Inane "society" drama und the senseless
caricatures that havo been foisted on us as
"pictures of New England farm life" .or
omo other phase of 'oxlstenco In our own
r another land, tho good old blood and
thunder romanco comes like a solaco. It Is
not Indicative of a depraved or undeveloped
taste. It Is merely the protest of a healthy
xntnd against tho morbid and unreal cre
ations which havo of late years been Borvcd
up to tho people by those who control the
destinies of things theatrical. Onco a
novelist wrote a story. Its action was
fiercer than any ever written. Heading
people gasped and beforo thoy caught their
breath ho wroto another, and then a critic,
noted for his oplgrammatlc wit, said of him
that ho "ulwayB writes at the top of his
voice." Ho was a success, and In a little
while tho world was full of authors, each
writing at the top of his volco. Result
the rubbish rooms of tho book shops aro
filled with "novels" that flrly shriek. A
"dramatist" wroto a lot of sparkling con
versation about an episode that could not
be discussed at tbo dinner table; men and
women blushed to hear It pronounced ao
plainly from tbo stage and went again.
Another dramatist made It oyon moro plain,
until finally thero was no attempt to dis
guise tha undebatablo. Rather, the compe
tition seemed to be which could throw
into tho strongest light that which decency
always seemed to demand should be kept
In the background. Then did the "problem
play" reach Its zenith. In the French
"farce' uothlng was left to the Imagina

tion. Even tho stage ribaldry of the
Elizabethan era seems mild when compared
with the directness of these Gallic Importa
tions. Atl this was borno with patience for
a sens.ni. Somo curiosity existed nt the
outset, which was mistaken for Interest, but,
happily, tho American life Is too clean and
tho American mind too healthy to bo very
seriously affected by the reflection of n
degenerate aristocracy or a decayed bour
geoUe. So now comes tbo revulsion. Nasti-
ness, no matter how attractively dressed, Is
still nasty, and we know It
It la not Insisted that the tank drama and
tho railroad station play are typical of
American dramatic taste. On tho contrary,
we have welcomed with outbursts of ap
proval and showers of golden dollars all
tho good and most of tbo bad things, plays
and players alike, our foreign friends have
sent us. Also, we havo sent to them some
of tho most accomplished actors, malo and
female, that ever won npplause, while a few
plays from this land of barbaric gold and
undeveloped taste have been found worthy
of reproduction on "tho other sldo." It Is
lamcntablo that tho plays wo havo sent
abroad havo mostly been of the freak type,
and not thoso truly representative of Amer
ican tasto and thought. Never mind that,
though. The astute manager has merely
sought to visit other shores with things on
which he could rely to rocelvo return suffi
cient to at least reimburse him for his out
lay. It cannot, therefore, bo said that tho
Amorlcans lack taste. Indeed, It Is rather
a tribute to their discrimination that they
havo turned from tho offensive foreign plays
to thoso of homo production, for tho latter,
If they do not elevate, at least do not havo
an opposlto effect. The language Is
homely, and seldom does It tako on even a
semblance of polish, but It never veils an
unwholesome sentiment, nor doc It ever
give tho sparklo of Its brilliance to cloak a
prurient thought. Its lessons nro obvious
and easy. Paresis Is not likely to result
from pursuit to the ultlmato conclusion of
any of tho problems, moral or psychic, pre
sented by tho "thriller," but brain fag Is
often relieved by watching tho colls of vil
lainy first embraco nnd then fall away
from the hero. And ono of tho best nctors
the American utago over knew onco said
hero In Omaha: "Tho Amorlcan pcoplo go
to tho theater to bo diverted, not to bo
amused." Ho was discussing tho furco
comedy of the Hoyt typo, which had at least
the merit of cleanliness.
In no sense Is tho American stage entirely
dependent on tho melodrama. We have
plenty of good, wholesome stuff of more de
pendable fabric, and It Is woll supported.
But the "thriller" has Its placo In the
oconomy of tho stage world; It has a hold
on tho great heart of tho people, and It is
Infinitely to bo preferred to the unhealthy
stuff with which an effort was mado to dis
place It. Lot us have more tank plays and
fewer girls from Maxim's, Saphos and
women of that sort.
Comlnsr Kvcnta.
'Herrmann tho Great, tho famous ma
gician, will bo tho attraction at the Boyd
thlu afternoon and night. Several sensa
tional Illusions will be presented here,
amongst them "La Cabinet Enchante,"
"Noah's Ark, or, After tho Flood," "Tho
Escapo from Sing Sing" and "Tho Turkish
Elopement." A feature of tho program are
MoWatters & Tyson and company In their
latest skit, entitled "Scenes In the Dressing
Room," for which special scenery and
effects are carried.
"Her Lord nnd Master," tho new play by
Martha Morton, will bo produced by Her-
uuri iveicey nnu i-.ino anannon at Uoyd u
theater tomorrow night and Tuesday night.
Tho story deals with an International mar
riage between an American girl and an
English, lord.
Indiana Stlllwator Is typical of tho highly
bred but spollod Amorlcan girl. Lord Can
ning, with a party of titled Englishmen,
payB a visit to her fathor's hunting lodge
In Colorado, and whllo thore falls In lovo
with Indiana. They are married and go to
London, but 'tho conventionality of the new
homeje too great for the llttlo American,
tho contrast of tho old and new civilization
too strong, and when one day her own
people arrive unexpectedly at tho London
mansion and proposo a dinner party, to
which Lord Canning refusos to allow her to
go, tills American spirit of freedom and
democracy so long kept In check breaks out
and sho joins tho party, leaving a note for
Lord Canning to follow. When he returns
to the library and finds her gono his pride
la touched and his dignity rebels against
such a proceeding, and when midnight
comes and sho has not returned his doors
aro barred tor the night.
Returning shortly after, and being let In
by tho old servant, sho meets her husband
in the hall In a dramatic scone, sho real
izing that she has been humiliated and ho
that the dignity of tho Canning home has
been marred. This is the great climax of
the play, whoro love and prldo fight for the
mastory, but In the end the former wins
and the family crisis avoldod by mutual
concession,
A new act, which George Primrose pre
sents this season for tho delight of tho
patrons of Primrose & Dockstader's min
strels, that will appear at tho Boyd
Wednesday night, a special matinee Thanks
giving day and night, Is something that
will surprise all who boo It. Tho curtain
ascends discovering the outlines of an old
Mississippi steamboat, stranded and long
slnco gone to decay, now veiled and beautl
fled by a iuass of tropical growth. Later
on tho picture, presents a study In solitude
and beauty. Then comes another scene, a
glowing cottonfleld, with a lazy river
meandering away Into the distance. The
next scene Is nn old Dlxlo cabin, ptctur
esquo and homely. It Is here that Prim
rose, tbo best soft shoe dancer on the
stage, Appears In dances that delight, In
troducing before tho close, "The Twins,"
two plcknnnlnles whoso work Is some
thing extraordinary.
Thero Is much Interest In the coming
engagement of the distinguished actor,
Frederick Wardc, nt Boyd's, Friday and
Saturday matinee and night. Tho fenturo
of his repertoire this season Is "Belphegor,
the Mountebank," ono of the most powerful
plays of the great French author,
D'Ennery, who also wroto "Tho Two Or
phans." The central figure of this sterling
play Is a traveling mountebank, who Is
married to a woman of rank, who, having to
travel with him, tako part lu his per
formances on the public square, though
her refined naturo shrinks from tho dls
play of which sho Is obliged to become a
part, and her solicitude, for her two young
children, who assist their father In his
performances, so wears on her dcltcnto
nerves as to drive her Into sickness. Sho
Is left a fortune, and by n combination of
Circumstances, for which sho Is In no way
responsible, she Is mado to appear In tbs
eyes of her husband as unfaithful to him
The progress of tho plot is consistent
toward a powerful termination and the play
bristles with intenso situations. Mr.
Wardo brings a perfect nctlng com
pany, as well aa an historically correct
production. Ho presents "Tho Mounte
bank" Friday night and Saturday matinee
and "Julius Caesar" Saturday night.
Seven acts, contributing as many dlfforcnt
forms of entertainment, will bo seen at tho
Orphoum this week. From old-time
minstrelsy down to tho latest form of farce
Is a far cry, but the feat Is accomplished
Insofar as toven acts can accomplish It.
Flo Irwin and Walter Hawlcy, who nro nt
the head of tho bill, will havo a new sketch,
"Caught with tho Goods," taken from ono
of the old-tlmo comedies. Miss Irwin Is tho
sister and former partner of tho fat and
dimpled May Irwin, whoso work In farce
comedy has mado her name a household
word In tho last few years. Beforo hor
desertion of vaudeville Flo and May Irwin
wero without exception tho most popular
sister team In tho vaudevilles, working
undor tbo namo of Irwin Sisters. Flo Irwin
has been seen In comedy, too, and has
been uniformly successful, But tho blan
dishments of tho vaudeville, stago havo saved
her to tho lighter form of entertainment.
At tbo hands of so capable a performer,
assisted by one of Mr. Hawloy's ability, a
first-class entertainment may bo looked for,
Carroll Johnson's namo Is known to every
lover of old-tlmo minstrelsy, und, with n
now monologuo and up-to-date parodies, he
will tako many back to tha days whon
burnt cork was tho vogue. A new sketch,
"A Happy Pair," built nlong tho lines of
up-to-dato farco, will bo offered by Mr.
and Mrs. Gardner Crane, and Ina Allen,
pleasing In voice and fcaturo, will offer an
entertainment of her own. Tho Do Courcy
brothers will have a novelty In tho way of
acrobatics, and Jones, Grant and Jonos, a
trio of colored comedians, will contrlbuto
their funny act, whllo RIalta, tho nro
dancer, has somo decided novelties in tho
way of novelty and picturesque dances.
A revelation of comedy, burlesquo and
vaudevlllo brlofly describes tho perform
ance of "The Dainty Parco Burlesquers"
which Manager Jake Rosontbal has selected
as his opening attraction at tho Trocadcro
for tho weok commencing this afternoon,
with dally matinees.' Tho olio Includes tho
following well known artists: Misses von
Bherzor and Courtnoy, In operatic selec
tions; Mllo. La Tosca, premier lady con
tortionist; Honan and Kcarnoy, Irish
comedy boxing artists; the favorlto
comediennes, Carver and Pollard, in their
eccentricities, peculiarities and original
ities; Fred Wyckoff, charactor comedian
and unique story teller; tho Grahams, lead
ing song Illustrators. In conjunction with
this all-star olio two now burlettas will bo
given, entitled "Troupers Troubles" and
"Paris Upside Down." Tho Thanksgiving
matinee will bo mado specially attractive,
by tho Introduction of novelty features.
Musical
Tho Cheerful Idiot Is abroad again. Hero
Is his label, publlshod In a recent Issue of
tho Chicago Record-Herald: "It has been
our experience that whero you find a
preacher who knows much about tho gospel
he don't know much about singing. On tho
other hand, thero are tho professionals who
are paid to sing In tho church; they don't
know and don't caro anything about relig
ion. Some of tho finest organists In' this
city have llttlo spiritual feeling."
i
Of courso, lu looking at an article like
this we muBt first take Into consideration
the fact that Chicago la young yet. We
must also rcmombcr tho true story of the
little Omaha girl who ended her prayers
ono night with "And now, good-by, God,
I'm going to Chicago."
nut I am disturbed to think that tho pro
fessional singers In churches of Chicago are
so shockingly bad. I aro going over Christ
mas week to ace If thoy aro really so ter
ribly sln-steoped as thoy aro represented.
I l.now a few of tho very best ones, and I
always felt that they wore Just as good in
thought and action as the average church
member, comparing fairly and squarely.
Their devotion to a great art has ennobled
and elovated them In spirit and In mind.
Tho persons who have tho Impudence to
make such a Pharisaical assertion as this
"they don't know and don't care anything
about religion" aro person who doubtless
will get up und howl about tho love of tho
church, and will bo tho first to denounce
the man who docs not subecrlbo to a little
sot of rules which some equally narrow
portion drew up ton, llfty' or 200 yours ngo.
The musician does not bollcvo that re
ligion consists In adhering to somo "letter"
rules and Ignoring tho "spirit." Religion,
from the musician's standpoint, does not
consist of churchlsm, perhaps, but It Is
alive, Just tho same.
When tho musician loses bis religion ho
loses his soul. When he loses his soul ho
Is a machine, not a musician nn urtlsau,
not an artist.
"Where you nnd u preachor who knows
much about the gospel, ho don't know much
about singing." This Is as absurd as the
other proposition.
The moro a man knows about tho gospel,
that Is, the messago of peace und love, the
message of self-sacrifice and of sympathy,
tbq more bo must know about singing, and
everything beautiful. It Is the minister
who speculates on "What creed la now In
uso In Mars" and "How, Which and Whou;
or, the Thusneas of tho Therefore," It Is ho
who la steepod In leurned foggcry and men
tal mist who knows llttlo about hinging.
I novT have met a priest, minister,
clergyman, or whatever name you may wish
to use, who was allvo with u hearty love
for his follow man, and whose life was a
constant encouragement to tbo struggling
one, who did not have an overwhelming lovo
for music, I havo In mind, us I write, ono
of those true apostles of real religion, who
now rests from bis labors In a little quiet
place In Kansas, u man who was called by
his fellows a helper of men, whoio life was
an example nnd I can hear him now saying
to me, "Play me that Scotch song. Oh, I
do lovo that."
When his choir sang his requiem It was
tho labored song of ono big, broken
heart. Ho novcr asked a member of his
choir, so far ns I know, if ho or sho were
religious. No, ho took It for granted, nnd
talked with them from that standpoint.
And their religion grew and waxed
strong.
There Is as much religion In n choir
singer, even It bo Is paid, ns thero Is lu tho
pewholder, generally speaking.
Writers on such subjects as these which
I havo Just mentioned would do well to
look up tho meaning of tbo word "religion"
In any good dictionary beforo rushing Into
print. It would also bo well to eitiplmslzo
what was said once In connection with this:
"On theso two commnndmcnts hang all tho
law and tho prophets."
It Is writers and speakers llko tho scrlbo
In question, 1 caro not If he bo the greatest
man In Chicago, who heap up discord be
tween pulpit and organ loft. It Is not tho
minister and the choirmaster. The minis
ter and his singers wilt bo united when
thoso church members aro eliminated who
act, think and speak In every way, "Stand
off, I am holler than thou."
There Is on exhibit nt Iho Boo oftlco a
aong which I nui sure tho world Is waiting
for. It Is tbo only genuine, real "long
felt want" filler. It Is euro to burst with
tho radlanco of a golden sunrise, 'tho blaz
ing aurcolo of a resplendent nnd refulgent
renaissance on tho art world of today.
Alas und alack, and woe Is met For tho
laurel has been snatched from Schubert and
Schumann's wreath Is gobe. ' Tom Moore
and Bobblo Burns aro relegated to tho back
ground, whllo Hclno's "lied 1st aus."
Tho now song has been composed and de
composed by a Chicago man. It Is called
"All Honor to Admiral Schley." Tho uuthor
modestly says In a lotter accompanying tho
"song": "I hereby glvo you authority to
print In your paper the first and second
verses nnd chorus, provided that you protect
my copyright by entering directly under tho
verses nnd chorus 'Copyright, 11)01, by W.
D. Allen,' nnd I would be pleased If you
would further stato that thero aro Bcvcral
other verses to tho song," etc., etc, Ahl
tho pity of it nil! There aro moro verses 1
Thero nre, alas, too many now.
Fearing to Infringe In somo way upon tho
copyright I will not publish It. It has a
companion pleco entitled tho "Doom of An
archy." I can think of nothing better as a
punishment than to muko every anarchist
read tho words thereof. Another bv tho
samo decomposer 1b "Only a Bird on
L,aay s mi. .My sympathies are with the
Audubon society when this song Is sung In
their presence.
At Unity church nn Innovation has been
mado In tho musical arrangements. Mr.
Garelsson will furnish tho programs, as
sisted by Miss Garolssen and Mr. Edward
Garelsson, violinist. Enserablo work will
be done, In which students of tho Garels
sons will assist. This Is u good move. It
will doubtless develop Into another choral
force.
It la with glee that I herald tho coming
of tho great Nordlca. Sho will uppcar at
ICountze Memorial church on December 7,
In concert. Further announcement Is su
perfluous. Everyone knows of Nordlca.
And n singer, no matter how humble or how
far advanced, cannot afford to miss this
treat, even If the comforts of llfo havo to
bo dlspcnsod with for a weok.
On every hand ono can hear nowadays a
strange language. It is an attempt to put
a Scotch flavor to every word. To tho golf
lug, community It Is not difficult, but for
othors It Is not bo easy. Sure, you'ro
Jaukln' hoot mon, be Jabers, Bounds mixed,
aud so does "Das 1st nlcht unco guld." Tho
reason for tho polyglot situation Is that all
the Scotch people aro talking to their
frlonds about tho "Kilties." They'ro a
braw lot of men, that they are, and they
will play at tho Coliseum December 10.
A concert will bo given at tho First Bap
tist church next Tuesday evening by Mrs.
Cora Lathrop Patterson, soprano; Miss
Mario Swanson, harpist; the Ccclllan quar

Tho finest contour of a fomalo face, tho
sweotest smllo of a femalo mouth, loses
somothlng If tho head Is crowned with scant
hair. Scant and falling hair, It Is now
known, Is cnused by a parasite that burrows
Into tho scalp to tho root of tho hair, where
It saps tho vitality. Tho little white scales
tho germ throws up In burrowing aro called
dandruff. To euro dandruff permanently,
then, nnd to stop falling hair, that germ
must bo killed. Nowbro's Herplcldo, an en
tirely now result of tho chemical laboratory,
destroys the dandruff germ, nnd, of course,
stops the falling hair and cures baldness.
When you kill tho germ you enn't havo the
