THE OMAHA ILLUSTRATED BEB.
About Plays,
Last wecK didn't hold murh for the peo
ple of Omaha at the theater. As a result
the patronage did not amount to any auch
aum aa would break the sides of tha
vault In which the rhanagers store their
gains. It la not to he wondered at that
this la the cane, for the reason haa hardly
gotten Into tta fult swing yet. but tha
announcement are mora and more encour
aging, and each week sees new produc
tions. o that In a very little while the
promises made earlier In the sesaon will
be redeemed as they fall due. Not only
are the advance bookings for Omaha inch
aa Interest the peorje who patronise the
theater, hut others equally Important are
botng added esch week, no that the. out
look for a brilliant waaon la conatantly
growing brighter. The really good playa
that hava already been here are few. but
those few are merely the earneat of the
manager! to the public that Omaha la to
have the beat that can be obtained.
Several of the ambltloua attempts to ride
the rlalng wave of theatrical proaperlty
Into public prominence have proved lament
able failures. This la generally due to the
fact that the people are looking more tor
substance than for mere nolae on the
atige. but the comfort that some of the
objectors to "syndicate" methods are ex
tracting from the fact seems strained and
far fetched to say the least. The fact that
the "syndicate" la backing the real suc
cesses of the season, and that the fallurea
have been In nearly every Instance In
dividual attempts that were not supported
by the great managers, proves that the
neerlng shouts of triumph from the "In
dependents" nre born of the wish rather
than of the truth. The champions of the
"literary" drama have been again and
gain convicted of having Itching palms,
o that It Is po longer worth while to pur
sue them with the charge, but It la grati
fying now and then to havo some one of
the men and women they so Indiscrimi
nately attack turn on them. One of the
latest of the vilified to speak out against
the ridiculous and Insincere crusade against
"commercialism" Is Richard Mansfield, aa
to whose position In the world of art there
can no longer be any doubt. Mr. Mans
fleld'a conclusions are so nearly In line
with those heretofore r-xpre.ed by The
Bee that the two utterances might have
been made by one.
In a recent discussion of conditions In
the theater. Rlchar;! Mansfield trench
antly summed up with "Nobody la writ
ing and very few are noting." He also
paid his compliments to the commercial
oondltions which are said to obtain. He
aid:
"I think that a great deal that la writ
ten about the modern stage and Its de
cadence should be taken with mnny grains
of salt To commence with, the Inst accu
sation that theatrical managers have In
this day but one Idea, nnmcly, to make
money: May I Inquire what Mr. Shakes
peare or Mr. Oarrlek or Mr. Mtoready or
Mr. Kemble had In vlewT If I am not
very much mistaken Mr. David Oarrlek
and Mr. Shakespeare were both very
thrifty gentlemen, with a very alert eye
for the main chance. Mr. Shakespeare
and Mr. Oarrlek and all tho rest of thetn
worked for money and that Is what we are
working for today. Poets and painters
also work for money. A good painter
asks from 13,000 to 110,000, and even more,
for a portrait. He doesn't give pictures
away because he Is philanthropies and
wants to educate people up to his pictures.
Why should actors and managers be ex
pected to produce playe that are of super
fine literary quality, or overwhelmingly
poetic, or painfully analytical, or mot
tId!y disgusting, that nobody wants to seeT
Mr. David Oarrlek presented at very alight
cost tragedies, melodramas, high comedy,
low comedy and musical farces, and he
always ' presented what he thought the
people would buy tickets for. Mr. Oar
rlek never wittingly produced a conundrum
play, 'or a play on hereditary diseases, or
a play of the philosophical argument. His
plays were for actors, to be acted; the act
ing was of more Importance than the talk
ing. It cost Mr. Oarrlek hardly anything
to produce a play, and the authors re
ceived the very slightest emolument. To
day it would be almost impossible to sat
isfy a public with a play of Mr. Shakes
peare's under 110,000 at the lowest figure.
A modern author receives from 7 to 15
per cent of the gross receipts, and I have
paid as high as &5.000 to an author In one
season, if you deduct that sum, the cost
of production, salaries and railroad ex
penses, there is very little left for the
modern actor or manager; and yet he Is
accused of commercialism and urged to de
vole himself to ldylllo plays, problem lays
and philosophical discussions. '
"Please don't be deceived by the people
who take up this sort of thing. They are
not doing It for nothing. They do it be
cause they hope to make money. When
you behold a man wearing long hair and
habited In extraordinary garments, appear
ing Irt a red flannel shirt and overalls at a
dinner party, ostensibly living on cab
bages' In the sight of man, and sneaking
Into obscure eating houses for a boefsteuk;
assuming a portentous frown, an absent
minded manner and a lisp, and gazing into
vacancy; when you sit in the audience' and
see a man or a woman doing natural things
an the stage, which may be dispensed with,
as, for instance, blowing the nose as an
evidence of profound emotion, or spitting,
or sitting still for half an hour without
saying anything, beeiwse a person under
like conditions would sit still and say noth
ing; of lying on the floor and bumping one's
head to exhibit hysteria, etc., etc. know
. that It Is all for money. The editor and
the critic who say disagreeable things
about me because it's spicy and people en
toy reading unpleasant things about other
people, do it for money. Somebody seemed
to suggest that the world would be so dif
ferent If the old actors were prancing
about. They wouldn't be commercial;
they'd be doing things for nothing, or giv
ing away their enrnings to hospitals und
libraries. Yot Mr. Booth acquired a hand
some little fortune of $00,000 and Mr. David
Oarrlek was a rich man and drove four-in-hand
to Rluhmond with his royal hlghnoss,
the prince of Wales, on the box. But In
the days of Mr. Oarrlek, and even In the
days of the Booths, there were few actors
and few theaters. An actor was not ob
liged to produce one or two new and ex
pensive playa every year, and the people
Wero satisfied to see favorite actors In
favorite characters. But while productions
were simple and expenses slight, the man
ager and his wife never forgot to collect
the tickets at the door."

On Friday and Saturday evenings and
at a minifies on Saturday, WIKon Lackuye
sad hU flue auppnrilng company will pre-K-ut
"Tho Pit" a dramatisation of Frank
Players and
Norrls novel of the same name. In this
piece Mr. Laekaye haa won the success of
Ms career and has really achieved a dra
matic triumph. His long run In Chicago,
which Is really the home of "The Pit,"
was a phenomenal success. The piece will
be put on here with all tha attention to
detail that marked the New Tork pre
sentation. John P. Slocum la one of the managers
to taboo the use of the word "show girl,"
as designating the proudest and statlleat
beauties of a musical organization. Henry
W. Savage was the first New Tork man
ager to abolish the word, Fred C. Whitney
followed cloely after, and new Mr. Slocum
announces that while his chorus girls com
prise the handsomest young women he
could find, he does not know them as
"phow girls." Explains Mr. Slocum,
"There are no 'show girls' In The Jewel
of Asia,' either actually or nominally. But
If there are any handsomer girls In the
profession open to chorus positions than
those I have I would be elated to know
It, for I would soon have them under con
tract." During his managerial career Mr.
Slocum estimates that he haa engaged
over 2,000 chorus girls. The chorus of "The
Jewel of Asia" numbers sixty-five. The
company will be at the Boyd next week.
"The Two Little Waifs," Lincoln J.
Carter's popular melodrama, will be seen
at the Krug theater for two nights and
one matinee, starting with a matinee to
day. ,
The management of the Krug theater
announces as the attraction for Tuesday
and Wednesday matinee and night, For

RelJ's rensatlonsl melodrama, "A Mid
night Marriage."
"At the Old Crossroads" will be pre
sented at the Krug theater on next Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday by Arthur C.
Alston's company of players.
The vaudeville bill at the Orpheum for
the week beginning matinee today will
abound In comedy. The top-line attraction
will be Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, who
have been seen here before In the legiti
mate as well as In vaudeville. Their ve
hicle will be a sketch entitled, "When
Two Hearts Are Won." Foy and Clark
roturn with a new sketch called "The Old
Curiosity Shop," which Is described aa up
roariously funny. ' The Three Rnmloneres
will be among those to make their Initial
bid for Ingratialion.. They are one of the
season's European acrobatlo importations
of the Orpheum circuit. Among their dar
ing and difficult feats they promise some
of their own origination. "The Awakening
of Toys," the skit De Witt, Burns and
Torrence will appear In, Is exploited aa an
original creation. De Witt and Burns are
a par of ludicrous comedians and acrobats
who have been seen here, and MMo. Tor

Joined them this season. Paul Barnes will
contribute a monologue. Klein and Clifton
do eccentric dancing and sing. Miss Klein
is pretty and wears attractive costumes.

Music and Musical Notes
The giving of a "cup of cold water" la
a very simple thing, and yet how refresh
ing It Is in the dust and turmoil of a busy
life.
It Is tha blessed privilege of the musical
crltio of The Bee to have a garrison of
friends who are always doing something
pleasant for him, and letters, with clip
pings enclosed, como from many friends
who are Interested in the development of
the artistic side of human nature. These
clippings are Invariably upon pome subject
in connection with music, and I am over
come with the feeling that I have be on
somewhat selfish in that I have kept these
things largely to myself. In future I
shall try to reprint some of the things
which have cheered mo and have given
me much Joy. And so I will begin. H;rs
Is a poem which I had never seen before
and which you will enjoy If you have never
read It; and If you have It Will bear a
special reading at this time. A friend
sends It to me from out In the state i
A nightingale made a mistake;
She sang a few notes out of tune:
Her heuri was ready to break, ,
And she hid away from the moan.
She wrung her claws, poor thing! '
But was far too proud to weep;
She tucked her head under her wing,
And pretended to be asleepi
"Oh. Nightingale," cooed a dove,
"Oh, Nightingale, what's the uscT
You bird of beauty and love,
Why behave like a goes?
"Don't skulk away from our aight
Like common, contemptible fowl:
You bird of Joy and delight.
Why behave like an owl?
"Only think of all you have done;
Only think of all you can do;
A false note la really fun
From Buch a bird as you.
"Lirt up your proud little crest,
Open your musical beak;
Other birds have to do their best;
on need only to apeak."
The nightingale shyly tcok
Her head from under her wing.
And, giving the dove a look,
straightway began to slug.
There was never a bird could pass:
The night was divinely c..lm,
And the people stood on the grass
To hear that wonderful psalm.
The nightingale did not care,
She only cang to the skies;
Her song ascended there,
And there she fixed her eyes.
The people that stood below
She knew but little about:
And this etory's a moral, I know.
If you'll try to find It out. i

The Catholic choirs in this country are
particularly exercised Just now over tho
action of the present pope In connection
with music. But there is no reason for
gloomy prognostications. His hollntss
Pope Pius X. Is sounding an alarm which
'was very much needed.
I number among my friend, a score or
so of Catholic priests, and some of them
have been, and are, men whom I specially
cherish, and whoae friendship Is solid and
lasting. With many of them I have talkiM

one consent, they unl e In faying that whlli

Is no doubt whatever but that the church
Is sorely in need of Just what the pope

all good lovrra of real, genuine church

. The "Music of the Church" has been
relegated too long to the backgraund, be
cause of some flimsy excuse; and ginger
bread trivialities have been introduced by
tho professional quartett, to whom haa
been delegated the high office of music
worship, so that the congregation might
enjoy (with consciousness of having paid
for It) some sentlm'cnal ballads of a reli
gious nature, and not be disturbed In its
self-complacent serenity, by being obliged
to raise a voice Itself, In the worship of
,God. It Is high time that the church
should, in its music, become ' churchly
again, and drop the concert music.
But I am only saying poorly what the
head of the Catholic church on earth has
said in no uncertain tones, and with all
the authority, of the ancient church of
Rome behlrtd him:
: In a recent Interview the pope said: "I
know the difficulties that beset my pro-
fiosed restoration of the Gregorian chant
n Catholic churches. I know the resist
ance which will be offered. I am aware
that driving dance and opera music out of
the churches to restore the primitive pur
ity of chanting will not be the work of a
day. However, I shall secure obedience:
1 like Hach and tho great symphonies and
the operatic masterpieces, but I wish opera
to be confined to the theaters. Such music
Is admirable In Its place, which Is not in
a church. I remember one day celebrating
mass when I heard a voice singing 'MIra,
0 Norma.' " That was bad enough, but
the pope could have heard much worse at
some of the recent Easter services in this
country. Many of the programs read like
thoae of a Sunday night sacred concert
In New York, than which, as everyone
knows, there are few things less sacred.
(The above quotation Is from the "Choir
Journal" of a recent Issue.)
Among some of the rules which have
been laid down are these:
That tho music be such aa not to attract
too much to Itself ihe at ten' Ion of the hear
eis, ao as to become a source of distrac
tion from tho divine service to which it
must be entirely subservient as an aid to
devotion.
Adaptations of Latin words to songs,
arias, or conoerted plecea borrowed from
1 -:era or other secular sources, are to be
eliminated.
The use of a music' whose style in either
tl.-i vocal part or the accompaniment la
:urgestive of the concert or the theater,
is to be eliminated.
These are only a few of tho points laid
down, and they are reprinted here because
of their general applicability to all
churches. Later on, It may be deemed
advisable, for tho information of those who
would like to know, to reprint the findings
of the committee which has Issued Its
statement on the requirements of tho pope,
and of which the foregoing is a very small
part.

LONDON HOTEL MEN COMPLAIN
World's Fair aad War Keep Tourists
Away Tailors aad Dressmakers
Are Ala Gloomy.
LONDON, Oct. 15. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) Although the summer has been
almost unprecedented for glorious Bun
shine and absence of rain, London shop
keepers, hotel proprietors and others de
clare that they have had a poor season.
"It was too hot to wear clothes," said a
representative of a firm of well known tail
ors and dressmakers, whose premises are
usually filled with the wealthiest of Amer
ican and continental visitors. "The hot
weather kept the best' class of people away.
They went to their own watering places
rather than stand the fatigue of long Jour
neys. The people who came over In spite
of the heat, have not been the people who
spend money freely."
Other west end shopkeepers were also
gloomy, complaining not bo muoh of the
scarcity of visitors as of the tightness of
money. "Instead of champagne people
drink whirky-and-soda and beer," said the
manager of one of the large hotels.
"The St. Louis exhibition and the presi
dential election robbed us of many of our
best American clients. There has conse
quently been much bargaining for rooms,
and the season has been far from a good
one." The manager added that he knew of
one large hotel the profit of which Was
about 50,000 less than last year.
The manager of the Carlton hotel re
ported an average season. "There has
been a considerable falling off," he re
marked, "In the number of Russian visi
tors, but visitors from .France and Ger
many are increasing every year."
At the Savoy hotel, however, the summer
season has been one of the best on record.
"The Savoy has never known a season to
compare with It," said the manager. "Thero
has hardly been a day when the hotel has
not been full,"

Is deadly to vegetal matter.
There lies the great value tjf Llqno
zone. It is the only way known to kill
germs in the body without killing the
tissues, too. Any drug that kills genua
is n poison, and it ennnot be taken In
ternally. Medicine Is almost helpless
In any germ disease. It Is this fact
that gives Llquozone Its worth to
humanity. And that worth is so great
that, after testing the. product for two
years, through physicians and hospitals,
we paid $100,000 for the American rights.
Germ Diseases.
These are the known germ diseases.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help Nature overcome the
germs, and such results are Indirect and
uncertain. Liquozone attacks the
gerins. wherever they are. And when
the germs which cause a disease are
destroyed, the disease must end, and
forever. That ) Inevitable.
