lien's PhriiHan invi.llAn - Vo
yon ot Iowa yesterday Afternoon told
of til gnat uplifting nvt of fnoral sen
timent that is nUnt kumanlty to higher
levala. His theme was a portrayal of the
character of 'The Bishop of D ," In
,Vlotor Hugo's masterpiece, Les Mlser
abtea, bat scores of real characters liv
ing today afforded meet ot his illustra
tions to prove that the brotherhood idea
'Is the dominant and controlling thought
of the hour.
Senator Kenyon painted the character
of Napoleon In all of Its gloomv great
nesa, deftly compelling bis auditors to
foresee the disappointing finish at St.
'Helena and yet uttering no stronger con
deranaUon that to say that the world
voaid not today stand tor a Napoleon. .
He sketched the characters of other
great men, living and dead, whose con
trolling Impulses are and were selfish am
bition, and contrasted them with the
greater character of Huso's fiction,
i 'The world Is not only growing better.
but it is growing wiser," said Senator
Kenyon. "It Is coming to demand dif
ferent Ideals for success. Accumulation
of greet poaer. in the form of wealth r
lany other form is no longer the-true meas
ure. To get millions of dollars-tor a pocket
less shroud Is no longer popular. To
crowd down to a starvation wage thous
ands of brothers and sisters and give
r!.0l.iwa to an art Institute that Is In
leut dcs not meet popular approval.
Xven the legislators of the world are
'catching the spirit of brotherhood, and
pece treaties are being formulated, al
(though often to be Immediately strangled,
but the time Is coming, and It is close at
tand. when peace legislation will be the
greatest work demanued by the people of
all nations of their legislative bodies."
. Senator Kenyon won hearty applause
when he referred to the ptace treaties
and declared that he earnestly wished
)m might witness the ratification in the
it nlted States senate ' of treaties with
every nation stronger than that negott-
atrd by President Tsft with Ureal I
Britain.
' "It was a shame." he said, "for the i
senate of the Vnlted States in cut to I
pieces and destroy that splenrlM astro?-
inert which would Have etrtngiiiuhea the
tAnglo-tlaxon race and advanced the oont
ing of this great universal brotherhood
'condition when all wars will become lin
Voasible." Senator Kenyon was Introduced by Sen
ator C. O. Saunders. On the platform
were Judge Walter I. (Smith and other
local men ot prominence.
Amundsen Believes;
Scott Has Chance
1I0BART. Tasmania, March U.-Cap-tain
Itoal Amundsen, the discoverer of
the south pole. Mid today he thought It
quite possible that Captain Robert F.
Hcatt, the British explorer, bsd also at
tained the pole. lie hoped so at least.
Ills own bass be said, was SflO miles front
that of the British party and his winter
camp was Hearer the pole then Boon's.
He had no idea at the time that Captain
Scott had started for the pole.
Captain Amundsen has received thous
ands of congratulatory messages. He
announced that he will remain here until
the Fram falls He will then begin a
two month's lecture tour In Australia and
will Join, the Fram at Buenos Ayrea
From that port he will proceed on the
Fram to th Arctic ocean by way of Ber
ing strain. 1
Today Amundsen went for an automo
1t!e ride with Henry D. Baker, the Ameri
ron cousul, and later dined with him.
lie was reticent concerning his exper
iences st the pole, but said tlutt Shackle

cult route than he did

"The Lily at the Aaierlraa.
The rather labored first act ot "Th
Lily," the Woodward Stock company's
offering for th week at th American,
failed - to arouse any Intense Interest
among the auditors, but th second act
saw the development ot the story Into
its tense tiagedies In the lives ot the un
happy members of tbe family ot the
Comte Deilaigny and the plsy took a
powerful bold on the playgoers; In th
third, act "came the Intensely dramatic
arraignment ot her father by Odette,
played by Mis Kva Lang, and so effec
tive was the scene that the audience tor
the time forgot It was only a play and
watched and listened almost breathlessly.
In the second act Miss Lang, moving
quietly about the place Odette called
borne, was clearly the woman who had
sacrificed herself for her father and was
living out her hopeless life, playing the
mother and manager of the house, suf
fering An silence, Tet one could wonder
if Uie spirit within her always could
keep silence. Miss Lang wss thinking
her part, living it. working herself to th
proper pitch for that scene la the third
act when the brutal father In his selfish
rage was about to attack his younger
daughter and Odette held up a restraining
band and trembled with emotion, scath
ingly rebuked him for ruining her own
life and attempting to ruin that of her
sister, for driving her to apparent Im
proper conduct by denying her all the
clean and natural things of life that a
young girl's heart desires.
Miss Lotus Robb as Christine accom
plished even more than might hav been
expected of her, showing a fin appre
ciation ot the role and an ability to in
terpret it. It calls for a more tense
emotionalism Cian before has been re
quired ot Miss Robb. Prank Denlthorn
as th Comte DeMeigny. Carl Dalntre
as liusar, the peacemaker, and Elliott
Dexter as the artist Arnaud, played their
parta effectively. v
Vaadeeilte at tbe Orpheasa.
Th Kirksmlth sisters, a sextet of
former Omaha girls, have a vocal and
instrumental headline act at the Orpheum
this week which merits approval from
every angle. Garbed In white draping
gowns and gray slippers they render a
musical program ot general excellence.
A vocal quartet selection and an en
semble piece which Is directed by one ot
the six from th orchestra pit proved the
hits of their five offerings.
Al and Fannie S ted man with some
original piano capers, in which a weird
dash of chop auey ragtime features,
brought forth rounds of applause. Tbe
Littl Sunbeam," a Pullman car travesty
by Mrs. Gardner Crane and a supporting
company of five digresses from the
usual run of traveling skita by present
ing humorous complications that arise
la the lower berth.
Cooper and Robinson, colored come
dians, hav a twanging lip tun and some
witty dialogue. Dressed in the fashion
ot the ancient Romans, a unique touch
la added to th bill by th Paul Axard
trio who present some difficult feats of
tumbling and strength. Miss Alma
Toulin Is charming in her manner and
adda to the effectiveness ot her warbling
by well sustained notes. ltlce. Bully and
Scott complete the week's offering with
a novel comedy stunt in which they are
continually bouncing about or whirling
on the elevated bars.
"Bey lasr" at the Braaalela.
George Sidney, accompanied by Carrie
Webber and a handsome bunch of chorus
girls. Is back In Omaha, this time at th
Brandeis. wher he was kept very busy
by two Sunday-suted audiences yesterday,
lies about th asm Busy Issy w have
been, permitted to laugh at and with for
the last decade or longer, a little less
rough in spots, perhaps, and still willing
to go aa far as be can to provide enter
tainment tor those who sit out In front.
Miss Webber retains ber charm, and aids
much in the fun-making. Her own private
rendition of "Alexander a Rag Tim
Band" la tbe particular high spot ot the
performance, and won much appiausa
from th multitude at both performances
Sunday. Several ethers la the company
rank along with the principals, and alt
work hard to keep th merriment sooting
from the first not till the but. Th

class.
The fighter was Introduced by Jack
Curley. promoter of th big fight, and
sparred with two training partners, re
ceiving the unrestrained applaua ot ths
crowds. When be first appeared b waa
given a real ovation.
The performance by "Tbe Pace Maker"
contains only one song that baa been
heard here this season. All the rest are
new and ate well balanced, Th comed
ians drew laughs by legitime t means and
th comediennes brought theirs by th
same methods. " .
Barleaejae at the Garrtv.
David Marion, one of th leading favor
ites of burlesque, opened at tbe Qayety
yesterday with a gorgeously staged spec
tacle. Marlon, w ho writes bis own songs,
has some very popular ones, and sings
them well. The chorus Is larie- as to
numbers and well clothed In all th num
bers. "Stageland" Is the title Marlon has
given his show. He deals with a troupe
of English actors and actresses who hav
com to New Tork. Their manager goes

the bunch. The second act shows th
whole English troupe, first at the stag
entrance to a big New Tork theater, and
then upon the stsge.
