TIIE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: UUNE 80, 1907.

HIS thine ef building- theaters hi
Omiht reminds on vrry miicti of
lh old story about the big man
who had a little wife. The little
woman had a temper that was
averal sties bigger than her body, and
quit frequently would visit condign pun
ishment on her gigantic lord and humble
servant. One day whan aha was engaged
In tha business of hanging onto hla back
with ona hand whlla aha belabored him
with the other, a neighbor, who chanced
to overlook the scene, aaked tha husband
why he dldn Interfere. "Well," aald the
hulking brute, "It amuaea aha and It doesn't
hart I." Thoae engaged In the pleasant
and In many waya harmleae paatlme of
building; new theaters for Omaha are
amusing themselves, and tip to data have
done little. If an, harm to another. Toung
Mr. Klaw was tha lateat of the enthusi
asts to oonatruct a fine new playhouse here,
but he haa been preceded by an eminent
host Almost erery available downtown
corner haa been occupied by a new theater
some time during tha laat two fears, while
Harney street has been so thoroughly de
Toted to the worship of Thespts that sev
eral existing and rent-producing structures
have been demolished In order that theaters
might be erected on their situs. It Is no
ticed, though, that these places, need as
blacksmith shops and the like, are still
oocupled, and vary likely will be for some
time to- coma.
of tha syndicate's booking oflV-a. After
you analyse) tha mailer thoroughly It does
not appear thai Mr. Klaw aald anything
for publication while In our midst that is
specially new or startling.
V
Mr. Flaw's announcemsnt was taken at
its faoa value by thoae Interested In the
how business. Ha aald he was to com
plete preliminary arrangements before
leaving Omaha, and ao far aa anybody
kno-w to the contrary, he may have done
so. But a long road stretches between
"pve'Inilnary" arrangements and the for
mal opening of a theater. If the syndl
".'.a really wanted to build a theater In
Omaha, and were to set about It tomorrow
rooming bright and early, tt would hurry
tha contractors to nave the house ready
for fjU "Opening In ISO, and It would more
h ' y be the spring of If before the
million-dollar structure would reoelve Its
baptismal audience. Bo It Is quite likely
that we will find our pleasure at the Boyd
for another season at least But Klaw A
lirtanger are not builders; they have
enough money tied up In New York, where
1 hltfh prices have necessitated the lnvest
1 merit of aome millions they might prefer
to bave In the bank rather than In theater
bufUilngs. Mr. Klaw said It would be out
p.de capital; he didn't need to tell us that,'
for local capital Is going Into enterprises
that are better supported than a theater
In Omaha. Ue also aald Mr. Belasco would
have no part In the new theater, another
totally unnecessary statement. When his
Omaha Interview reaches New Tork tt may
Indjce Mr. Belasco to renew his proposi
tion tt build a theater In Omaha. David
has Indulged In that recreative sport at
odd tl nes between hla hours of play build
ing. He has gone aa far as Mr. Klaw,
too, for on several occasions It has been
sTTttl Hrat'he had concluded "preliminary"
arrang"ments.
fc
None of this talk takes into consideration
the arrangement between Alf Havman,
Klaw A Brian ger. which Is the Arm style
nf the "syndicate," with the Woodward 4
KurgcNt Amusement company, which In
volves a lease that has some four years to
run. Under the conditions of tha syndi
cate plan tha Boyd theater la almost as
muttb tinder control of Klaw tc Brlanger
as if they actually owned It. Toung Mr.
Klaw knows this, and so his theater build
ing Interview sounds aa strangely as his
s further talk about providing Omaha with
a better class of shows for the ensuing
seasons. As a matter of fact. Omaha has
had right along the very best of attrac
tions; no better can be furnished New
Tork companies and New Tork productions,
the most notable actors and singers, and
all the novelties. These have not come
as frequently maybe aa they do to some
, of the larger citlea of the east, and oc
casionally we have been asked to wait for
a season or two before we got to see them,
as In the case of Maiid Aduma and "Pater
Pan;" but, sometimes, wo have had a
chance to see the great star In the new
play before It got to New Tork, as, for
example, Richard Mansfield In "Peer
Gynt." Sometimes, too, we have been so
greatly favored aa to be the flrat town In
which a signal success is presented outside
the metropolis, as "Florodora," Now and
then a company haa come to Omaha and
jumped direct to New Tork. as did "Wood
land" in Its first season. Seasons have
been opened hare, and companiea have been
organised here, while new plays have been
rehearsed here, and ,once or twloe within
easy memory Omaha has' posed as the dog
while the play wss being triad. Therefore,
Mr. Klaw's promise of better plays Is as
stale and unprofitable as his announcement
of a new theater. If his organization has
not been giving the best it could afford to
Omaha It has been cheating.
When the curtain went down at the Boyd
theater last night. It closed another chapter
of more than passing Interests In the an
nals of the theater in Omaha. The passing
of the Woodward Stock company as auoh
Is one of the regrettable features of tha
change that came through the dissolution
of partnership between Messrs. Woodward
and Burgess. In the deal Mr. Burgess
disposed of the Burwood theater to a firm
that made him an offer be did not feel
Justified In refusing, and so Omaha was
left without a theater In which a stock com
pany could be profitably housed. It Is
reasonably certain that next season Omaha
will be without a stock company, despite
the many rumors to tha contrary. Ona or
two very remote contingencies exist, but
they are ao remote and indefinite) that any
hope baaed on them will be slender Indeed.
The two sessons at the Burwood were
very profitable In every way. The man
agers furnished such plays as attracted the
public, and the people showed their ap
preciation by filling the theater on all oc
casions, so that the result was mutually
satisfactory. The company was maintained
at a uniformly high standard of excellence.
Bereral very capable aoaors appeared there
regularly, and nearly all were men and
women of taste and discrimination with
such earnestness In their work as made
thera suooessful. Borne of them have mad
warm friendships In Omaha that will not
cease with their departure) from tha city.
All will be pleasantly remembered, and the
closing of the stock season will leave a
gap In Omaha's list of places to ro that
will not easily be filled.
MIbs Lilian FntchlsmTdv for her annual
a! fresco performance at Hanscora park,
which will be given on tomorrow evening
In the corner near the lake, where Nature
has provided such a delightful bower and
amphitheater for the purpose. "As Too,
Like It" haa again been chosen as the play,
and the Clarkson Memorial Hospital associ
ation ts to be the beneficiary of the per
formance. Miss Fitch has selected her cast
from the advanced pupils of the school of
acting, and has rehearsed them In a most
thorough manner, both on the stage and
at the park, so that she expects a smooth
and even presentation of the fine oemedy.
The scenery of the park on a June evening
is Ideal for the purpose, and In the twilight

Vaadeville Calls for ITwvel Hesa.
This is the time for all good Ideas to
come to the aid of the vaudeville show.
The aooMuton to the ranks of vaudeville
theaters of many of the playhouses whloh
under the management of the Bhuberts
have been devoted to the drama and to
musical comedies, the building of new
theaters for the housing of vaudeville, and
the great and radical Improvements that
hare been made lately In that branch of
the show business have created opportuni
ties for beginners that never existed be
fore. Any Idea that will bring money Into the
vaudeville theaters Is worth money to
the vaudeville manager. Salaries never
were higher. A trial never was so easy
to get. Novelties never were looked for
and welcomed so eagerly.
A man who makes artificial Ice on the
stage and skates upon It Is one of the
novelties. The man worked on a street
car line. He had no experience with
vaudeville, but he worked out tha crude
outlines of an act In which he utilised
his Invention and he has secured many
weeks of good booking.
Liquid air has run its course In vaude
ville and the managers are looking for
new novelties.
Living pictures having been developed to
the ninth power have now been succeeded
by a new style of Irving; pictures, and ona
company of thirty-five men and women
has come from the musio halls of Eng
land to give the sew sort In tha United
States.
George M. Cohan, William Gillette, Da
vid Belasoo and other writers have turned
their attention to the possibilities of the
vaudeville theater Klaw A Brlanger have
offered prizes for tha best dram alio
sketches adapted for vaudeville use.
Actors and actresses are going from tha
legitimate to vaudeville and are there tak
ing the place of some of the fallen stars
who got along pretty well In vaudeville
because there was no competition worthy
of the tuna,
Jack London has written and had pro
duced a dramatio skstoh In vaudeville and
Paul Oerson has quit running a school
of acting to play tn the sketch.
Joe Weber hat been offered his own
terms for a protracted tour of the vaude
ville theaters. May Irwin has been offered
$3,000 a week. Elsie J an Is has yielded to
the musio of the bank roll and has gone
back into vaudeville, whence she carne.
May Irwin has been meditating seriously
upon the offer she has received. E. L. Dav
enport and Phyllis Rankin, who used to
adorn musical comedy, hava gone Into the
varieties.
Grace Filklna, who In private life is the
wife of Captain Adolph Marix, the sub
marine boat expert of the United States
navy, haa left the drama for the vaudeville
theaters. Tom Lewis, who played the un
known In "Little Johnny Jones," and Bam
Ryan, who played McGee, the contractor.
In the same musical comedy, have returned
to vaudeville to catch some of the usufruct.
Ethel Levey has gone back to her home
in vaudeville and has made in a few short
weeks enough money to go lpto the mil
linery business In Fifth avenue. New Tork.
Her partner In that enterprise is Valeska
Surratt, who was In "The Belle of May
fair" until the went back to vaudeville.

shock and got Into running order.
But without the novelty the vaudeville
show Is as dead sea fruit. With nothing
but tha old things and well known things
the prospect Is not encouraging. So this Is
why every Inducement now Is being held
out to strangers to vaudeville who may
have ideas.
Lately there have been called into ex
istence by the new conditions In vaude
ville agendas which sell and buy sketches,
hire actors, rehearse acts, get hearings for
them from managers and book routes.
Bnt in the last analysis vaudeville re
solves Itself Into the act and the performer.
Thera is need for a vaudeville Luther Bur
bank, who can improve the species.
M
Just one more, while we are on this
topic Mr. Klaw said furthor that In the
future the plays and players would stay
longer In Omaha. He was merely anticipat
ing the announcement of the local manage
ment. It Is not a violation of confidence
to state that Messrs. Woodward A Burgess,
prior to the dissolution of their partnership,
had had considerable correspondence with
the New Tork powers that be on this very
topic, and as far back as January had laid
down an ultimatum to the effect that what
ever plays were booked for the Bqyd
theater next season must be booked to
play at least three nights; that Omaha
must be tsken from the one-night circuit
and given three nights or nothing. On this
point Mr. Woodward says thore will be no
recession. For the convenience of the New
Tork managers, Omaha has been coupled
with, Des Moines, St. Joseph. Lincoln and
Bloua City. Here was a good week of
"one nights." and Omaha bad to take the
short end of the deal. Maud Adams was
originally booked here for one perfonnenoe.
"Three or none" was the demand sent out
from the local management, and three
were given. Bveu at tbat tha demand for
Maud -Adams was hardly half satisfied.
Thus If any Improvement In the matter
of longer stays in Omaha by the bigger
companies on the road Is noted tt must be
credited to the disposition of the local
ananegaiuent to be no longer put off with

ADAMS NORDICA'8 scheme for
an American Balreuth is causing
a great deal of comment on both
sides of the Atlantic. This very
clear explanation of the diva's
plan, taken from Literary Digest, will in
terest musio lovers:
Madame Lillian Nordlca Is announced as
the newest aspirant to the ranks of the
operatlo impresarios. Her plans for the
foundation of an American Institute of
Music, combining a school of operatlo in
struction with the features of the great
Wetrner theater at Balreuth, are
being eagerly dlscused both here
and In Europe. Already, it is re
ported, the singer has bought at a
cost of 1100,000 a tract of land on the Hud
son not far from Osslntng. where the In
stitution will be established. She has re
cently sailed for Europe to en lint the co
operation of the director of the Prim Ba
semen theater at Munich In the organiza
tion of the enterprise. Walter Damrosch,
It Is rumored, will later be Its director.
Madame Nordlca is reported to have given
voloe to her purposes In these wordst
"Call my object philanthropic or what
you may, hut the idea of founding here
In my country an American Balreuth has
been my life's ambition. All the years I
bave been singing I have dmamed of such
an Institution. Now I am able financially
to start this great project, whk-h 1 know
will be an Institution whloh after I am
dead will continue to grow and enlighten
the people of this country, who are now
awakening to the benefits to be derived
from a musical education suoh as was not
dreamed of ten years ago."
Borne details of the plan so far published
are given as follows by the New Tork
Times:
The location which will probably be
chosen Is admirably adapted to the needs
of the situation. The tweuty acres lie high
above the river and command a view over
forty miles ef country. The slope Is such
as to afford a natural amphitheater, and
on this will be built the Nordlca Festival
House, with a seating capacity of 1,000 per
sons. It will be arranged, aocordlng to
present plans, ao that in clear weather the
roof may be thrown back and the perform
ances given virtually in the open air. It
ts this structure particularly which will
take the form of the Warner Festival thea
ter, and It will constitute the central build
ing of the group to be erected at the Insti
tute. Here will ba given from May to
October Wagner operas, oratorios and
symphonies, with the greatest artists of
fcirope as the performers.
"For the first year, acoordlng to Madame
Nordlca'a Intentions, the Festival theater
will he given over to Wairner opera exclu
sively, and she will herself apar tn many
of her favorite rolxa, but thereafter there
will be an Intermixture of the othur schools
of opera, for the reason, among others,
that the educational features of the Insti
tute are to b made as comprehensive as
possible. The geueral scale of prices will
be popular, with the Idea of making It
possible for pt-ople In ordinary circum
stances to avail themselves frequently of
the opportunities afforded to hear the
world s best muslo, but there will be twenty-five
boxes to be subscribed for at fancy
prioee. as In the case of the Metropolitan
and Manhattan opera housos.
"Aside from the opera, however, the ora
torios and symphonies which are to be a
part of the regular offering of the institute
will be chosen with particular reference to
obtaining popular patronage. On Batiir
daya and Sundays during ins season spe
cial programs deslKned to Interest ths many
are to be arranged, and It Is believed that
special transportation rates will be af-
rorded, which will facilitate this part of
the plan.
"Aa for the rest, the grounds are to be
laid out In the form of a hut oval, with
dormitories for etudants. a building devoted
to lecture rooms and kindred accommoda
tion, a club for the holders of boxos and
other patrons of means who can afford
such luxury, and a restaurant, planned
alter the cafe at Iiaireuih and accommo
dating many hundreds of persons. The
architect, who has not yet been definitely
determined upon, will be an AuMMioan.
"Aa a place for the study of muato tt is
understood to be Madame Nordics s Inten
tion that the Institute shall aupplant some
of the European schools in the training
of American singers fur op.ra and oro
torlo work. She Believes that the rate of
expense can be brougtit to a basis which
will permit almost any American of the
requisite ability to enroll, ajid she will un
dertake to bring here for the summer ses
sions the best teachers from the other side
of the Atlantic, who will naturally be at
tracted by Ihu opportunity to make mora
mony than their vocation adonis on lbs
continent. "

her admirers by repeating; within Its walls
the lmpersonaticns of Isolde and Brunhild
whloa bave made her one of the greatest
exponents of Wagner of our time," adds
thfue words of confident Intercut In the
singer's plana:
"Nordlca Is not only an artist; she has
the American woman's talent for affairs.
Hhe has enlisted the practical interest of
men and women of wealth and she ex
presses the hopo and every lover of art
will say 'Amen to It that she may live to
see this great institution grow until It has
no rival."
The Detroit Journal calls the project "a
tremendous conception, but an exquisite
one," and thinks that "with the prestige
and force of this rare woman and the re
sources to which art in America can ap
peal," it Is by no means an impossibility, it
remarks further:
"A center of mnsle where the highest
ideals are striven for; where the best In
struction, the worthiest efforts, alone pre
vail; where there are no scheming im
presarios, shoddy 'patrons,' and snobbish
critics; where tt Is honest effort and art
for art's sake that Indeed would be the
highest possible fulfilment for which an
age of affectation and humbuggery could
hope. Who shall say the tremendous and
subtle influence which the culture and ap
preciation of good muslo exert upon the
morals of a nation! This gifted and beau
tiful American daughter should not be
left alone to achieve this great work. The
wealth of the country that professes Inter
est In the beautiful should take some of
the burden from her shoulders. Hers alone
should he the suggestion and the presiding
genlua"

PIPE DREAMS AND REALITIES
What We Could Do vrlth Oar Tobacco
Bill If Pat to Other
treses.
On "My Lady Nicotine" the people of
the United States spend twelve times as
much cash as they spend on the ministers
of the gospel. Our tobacco bill, annually,
Is double that of our bill for public edu
cation or for all the furniture In eur
houses.
We pay out more money for the fra
grant weed than for sugar. Every time
we spend 10 cents for bread, we hand over
4 cents for tobacco.
All the gold coined In this country last
year would fall short of covering our
Btnoklng account by nearly UiO,000.000, for
we spend yearly for cigars, cigarettes,,
smoking and chewing tobacco and snuff
more than 1300,000,000.
The money paid by Americans for smok
ing equals the amount paid tor shoes for
our 80,000,000 Inhabitants. Smokers burn
up an equivalent In currency 150 times
the sum burned up In fireworks. The
vast fortune that we swap for the com
fort of smoking, chewing and snuffing
would build thirty great structures like
the national capltol at Washington.
Bach year we smoke nearly 8,000,000,000
cigars, cheroots, stogies and all-tobacco
cigarettes, 1,500,000,000 cigarettes with pa
per wrappers, and consume 800,000,000
pounds of smoking and chewing tobacco
and snuff.
Every day we smoke 22,000,000 cigars
and 10,000,000 cigarettes and either smoke
or chew GOO tons of tobacco, all of which
costs 100,000. Every minute of the slx
teon honrs a day that we are awake we
make onrselves poorer by $so0 for 23,000
cigars, 10,000 cigarettes and half a ton of
plug and fine cut.
It Is estimated that there are 13,000,000
devotees of the weed, or about as many
smokers as voters. This estimate Is baxed
on the assumption that one person In each
six of our population Is a puffer of smoke.
Whan the bill for $300,000,000 Is divided
among 13,000,000 smokers, the smoking habit
doesn't look so purse-breaking, after all.
For the amount spent by each smoker
Is only about $23 each year, or less than
60 cents a week.- And yet the yearly sum
lavished on this narcotlo herb by any
one of thousands of men would build a
comfortable country house and support a
bed In a hospital besides.
Eight billon dollars a yearl Could a
man smoke fifty rigars a day, he would
have to live more than 400,000 years to con
sume all the cigars smoked by the nation
In twelve months.
In length, cigars average four and a
half Inches. Laid end to end the 8,000,
soo.OOO would make a brown streak little
short of 670,000 miles. Cut In half and
made Into two perfectos or panatellar.
the man of earth could, from either of
his two cigars, blow smoke directly Into
the face ef the man in the moon. Placed
end to end In M0 parallel rowa they would
floor a bridge across the Atlantie from
New Tork to Liverpool, and floor it
tightly, too July Scrap Book.
