TIIE OMAHA ILLUSTHATED BEE.
About Plays, Players and Playhou ses
Much disappointment wjf felt In Omahi picture and paragraph telling about th quarter of a year, wu even superior to Flret Congregational church the Omaha
!
when It was announced that the Wilton
Lackaye engagement had been canceled.
The demand for aeata was such a to war
rant the conclusion that the bouse would
bare been packed to the limit at each of
the three performances, and not one of
the prospective patrona' but waa anxious
r7 r
to sea the play and the player. Just a llt-
jtle later in the seanon Mr. Lackaye will
be here, and everybody who wants to can
' enjoy him in his great character of Curtis
Jadwln In "The Pit." The present situa
tion Is the result of sn unexpected devel
opment at St. Louis, and the fact that
tnanagera of theaters have consideration
for one another. .Manager Short of the
. Century theater at St. Louis, where Mr.
Lackaye and his company bad been play
lng. found himself at the end of the
Lackaye time without the expected attrac
tion to All In the coming-.week. Business
Is good at the Bt. Louis theater, and it
meant a heavy Ions to have to remain
"dark" for a whole week. The Lackaye
datea were with Woodward A Burgess, at
Kansaa City and Omaha. Manager Short
laid the case before them, and Manager
Brady of the Lackaye company Joined. It
was pointed out that the Lackaye engage-
ment at Kansas City and Omaha could be
filled In at a future time, while the loes of
time at the Century could never be mads
up. vvooawara uurgess saw me point,
and agreed to the proposed change. It was
simply a matter of accommodation on their
part, although It left them without the
business for the week, it was so arranged
that ihey will not be losers, while Manager
Short has the advantage of getting a
week' good business be might otherwise
have lost. In this little Incident alone Is
a lesson for the men who are never tired
of declaiming against "syndicate" meth
ods. Under the old rule. Manager Short
would have offered Manager Brady a little
bigger percentage of the receipts, and
Brady would have stayed In St. Louie, for
he would have had the week's time and
would not have been put to the expense of
coming to Omaha. Woodward & Burgess
could have aued him for failure to keep hla
contract, but that is about all the satis
faction they would have had In the end.
Under the new rule everything la arranged
without friction, all partlea are satisfied
r
and none will lose anything, while one,
at least, will be a gainer. This is only one
of the . ways In which organisation haa
aided the theater.
Right In line with this, but showing an
other phase of the proposition. Is a case
that has Just been commenced at Trenton,
N. J., by David Bclasco against I. 8. MlBh
ler, manager of one of the Trenton thea
ters. Mr. Belasco and Mr. Maurice Camp
bell had a contract with Mlshler for the
appearance at his theater of Henrietta
Crosman. After the contract was made,
and before the appearance of the company.
Mlshler entered Into an arrangement with
Biair at wavnn wnereDy ne Douna nimseit
to allow none but popular-priced attrac
tions to play at his theater. He notified
Belasco and Campbell of the change, and
that their date waa canceled. These gen
tlemen declined to accept the notice of
cancellation, and undertook to compel
Mlshler to allow them to present their star
at his theater, even going so far as to
take the entire company to the city and
haul all the scenery and baggage to the
theater, . where It was refused admittance.
This latter step was simply to make their
case strong by showlng( good faith. The
case will bring to adjudication the right of
a house manager to cancel a contract with
a company. Nearly all the managers hold
that ths right to cancel is one that Is be
yond dispute. It doesn't matter In the
present Instance that Belasco Is animated
by hla desire to pursue the "war" he has
declared on the "syndicate." It Is In the
.
determination of the Drlncinle involved that '
the nubile will h intorextaH nut hnw rtif.
, -

perjasnts- in their crusade for the right
iney ciaim to oe Dattllng ror. just con-
trast the action of Belasco with that of
Woodward A Burgeaa
Ths question of advertising is again agi
tating the managers. It has become espe
cially acute In New York, where the man
agers' association has placed the ban on
certain forma of endeavor to attract the
public' attention, and the result is some
very primitive forms of dUplay have been
adopted. Here Is what Is now being done
there, according to a recent survey of th
field:
Lew Dockstsder Is sending his company
out every morning In autos. This is new,
but sfter all it Is only an Improvement on
the old street parade idea of twenty-five
years ago, when every minstrel was ex
pected to double In brass. Every half hour
'Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch" leaves
the theater and delivers her cabbages to
market In a quaint country wagon. Of
course, people stare at her and read the
Sign on ner wagon. Mr. Keith's enterpris
ing manager haa a notion of his own on
the subject of advertising He sends out
every night a number of autos specially
constructed to carry Illuminated moving

Sooner or later the managers of theaters
will all coma to tb conclusion that the
newspaper la the surest way to reach the
public, and not only that, but th most
desirable. In fact, they all know It now,

anxious at all times to get his star or his
play Into tha public press in season and
out, and each of the great managers em
ploy press agents at high salaries who K
nothing the year through but get up matter
for publication In the newspapers. And
the newspapers reciprocate, for thousands
and thousands of columns of descriptive
matter about playa and players are pub
lished free of charge each year by news
pa pern all over the world. This Is appreci
ated by some of the managers, and some
effort on their part Is made to show that
they value the service, but the great ma
jority have come to look on the newspaper
pace as one of their vested rights, and
when they have any money to expend In
advertising they use It on some fool under-
taking as those mentioned above. .
The newspapers ars to blame In great
measure tor this condition of affairs. In
the euger chaae tor news they have opened
up their columns to' the theaters to sucii
an extent that about all the managers care
t0 Uuv told is now printed tree. News-
papers that really value their space, and
have some regard for tne eternal principle
that underlies ail business transactions, are
tj,e ones that have tne respect of the man-
aRRr. but even Uley ,j0 not receive the
returns to which they are entitled. Some
glad sweet time the managers, who are
just now being educated In a business way,
will awaken to the fact that they really
owe the newspapers something, and will
endeavor to repay it. Whenever the men
a ho are at the head of the theatrical affairs
of the country come to look on their bust-
ne-s as thorougmy legitimate and cut. out
all the claptrap and mountebank features
resorted to for advertising purposes and
deal soberly and intelligently witn the pub.
He, treating their own undertakings In a
dignified way,' they will wonder that they
were ever foolish enougu to make spectacles
of themselves to attract attention. Thcspls

elevating sight, and the men who have edy entitled "In Trust." Among the Initial

taking a great deal of personal satisfaction
in his ability to decline to receive Mr. E.
H. Bothern Into that glorious company of
K00(1 fe;i0ws and capable actors to which
the 0m Kntleman pays grateful as well as
graceful tribute In his reviews. It Is not
with ths Idea of depriving him of his privi
lege of dissent that The Bee points out that
his is the single discordant note among the
chorus that has greeted the Sothern-Mar-lowe
combination. Mr. Winter has stood
too long and too firmly In his proud post

Dramatic Critic to be easily toppled from
his pedestal now; and hi voice has always
been In favor of the good and the genuine,
so that on dislike very much to even

conclusion Is not only obvious but almost
Inevitable that he la swayed In hla Judg-
ment by some exterior Influence. In the
present Instance the Quarrel between Mr.
Bothern and Mr. Winter is so well 'known
that it offers th readiest excuse for the
condition. In the Chicago Tribune Mr. W.
L. Hubbard, who has already been quoted
to tome extent by The Bee on the same
toplo, says of Mr. Sothern in concluding a
lengthy and scholarly review of his work:
Noting these slims of growth, there seems
every re -son for believing that Mr. Sothern

lightness. Humor will then sweeten -Ms
undue seriousness, and temperance In the
employment of Impassioned utterance en
able him to free his triglo moments from
the hint of melodramatic vehemence which
still detracts from some of them.
Mr. Winter, In the course of a long and
generally delightful review of the play and
the performance In New York, hands out
some little short-arm Jabs at Mr. Sothern,
of which this is a sample: "Even self-
repression, however, could not reduce Miss
Marlowe's Juliet to the level of Mr. Both-
era's dapper and laborlom Romeo." Further
on In his article he disposes ot Mr. Sothern
thualy:
Mr. Sothern, as Romeo, shows earnest
purpose professional experience, refinement
end seal, hut the personality lacks distinc
tion and allurement: the manner Is finical;
the vocallem Is herd snd dry. and the
method Is that of strenuous, elaborate, arti

Aa Mr. Winter has a'read" gone en record
that there la but one Engllh-sneaklng actor
worth while, and that one Sir Henry Irving,
Mr. Sothern need not despair.
Coming Events.

Boyd for two performances Sunday and
Monday evenings of this week. Is fortu

things, that h. must not marry during ten

The first concert of the season scheduled

First Congregational church. It will be
given by three great artists, Mr. Emll
Sauret, Mr. Rudolph Gans and Mr. Bruno

Of tho latter gentleman no comment Is

concerts of the Thomas' orchestra at ths

man. Mr. Stelndel haa visited Omaha
only once alnce that time, and he has
still the honor of being the solo 'cellist ot
the famous Chlcsgo orchestra, Theodora

A word about the organ. It is built by
the reliable tirm of the name Austin Or
gan compuny uf Hartford, conn. It 'con
tains three manuals, thereby becoming a
brother Instrument to that at the First
Congregational church. Through the
couriuey of Mr. L X. Sunderland (who
dotes not want his name mentioned, but
who, 1 suspect, has had a great deal to do
with regard to the possibility of bringing
such a nne Instrument to Omaha) I was
invited to go through the enure "works"
the other day. It is a beauty in every
sense of the word. Mr. Sunderiund kindly
allowed me to pluy It to my heart's con-
tent, or rather until I had forgotten the
fact that I was expected eisewnere. The
case is very handsome and corresponds to
the general good taste which Is evident
throughout the building. The organ con
sists ot the Swell, the Great and the
Orchestral, the latter being a modern sub
stitute for the "Choir" organ, a name
which is somewhat misleading; tha Pedal
organ and the "Solo" organ.
In a column like this, which ts supposed
to be given over to the general discussion
of musical affairs, rather tiiun a particular
unch. I " obliged to abstain from.say-
tajr..n, -thing, which would be under-
b' n.anlats. but ie me say for
Po generally who are interested In
m"i 'hat the tone-qualities are excellent,
n them almost phenomenul; the
string quality Is most reall.tlo, and the
possibilities of the action are unlimited;
sometimes the sounds would seem, even to
the plajer. as though they came from a
fine orctieatra, ao perfect Is the "enun-
elation," if I might employ that word here,
The action which enables the organ at
the rear of the church to be operated from
the keyboard df the Organ In th. other
end worka like a charm. The entire con-
siruction Is a complexity of simplicities
that la, the Instrument Is made up of one
simple thing added to another, so thai
there Is no crawling 'over or under barriers
to get to a place which Is causing trouble,
everything la accessible, and the workman
ship is of such a nature that It Is really
a work of art ratheV than artlsun.tiip.
Most heartily r congratulate the BuotUta.
and the people of Omaha generally, on this '
