Episcopal Women's Auxiliary Hat
Enthusiastic Session in Omaha
at Brownell Hall.
OMAHA BoclPty listened with bated breath sblla Lady Gregory told
them how they, too, might have a national theater. There waa
eTrythlng to make It possible eren the money, and thla la In
great abundance.
Following the eugrestlon of the creator of the Irish theater, will some
Omaha millionaire come forward, like an Italian prince of old renaissance,
with pride In bis city, and make this wondrous thing possible T
Is Omaha to bate It own little theater, with plays of Its own setting,
of Its own life, of the Tery earth on which It stand?
Ia this going to be? And what will be the outcome?
If any one may have bis doubts about It, he Is surely weak of heart
and small of hope. In this connection 1 can't but recall something William
Dean Howells said to me: "If you mean to create literature, go back to you
plains," said the "Dean of American Utters; "go back to your Nebraska
If your aim is literature and not amusing reading to sell. The great mas
terpleces of the future will come out from your country and be of its peo
ple. Its builders of empire. Out there," he stretched his hand westward,
"there lies the field for the working of a great literature."
With the little theater In Omaha a reality, of course, the rest will fol- (
low, and some dreamy-eyed boy now plowing In the winter wheat will bo
stirred to rise and strike the high note that Synge got in "The Riders to the
Be,' "The Shadow of the Olen," that Norman Duncan wrought from the
living and dying of the men of the north Atlantic, that Mrs. Deland grasped
and made into Immortal realnens from the simple living of Pennsylvania
villagers.
Remember there Is a great sculptor who has come Into activity so large
that he cannot content himself with mere blocks of marble. There Is a
mountain of stone In Georgia, and next month this sculptor goes south to
sculpt it, hla handpiece. Here Is an effort wholly of the plains. Here Is
a plainsman In art with a conception so ovcrsweeplng that he must take
hla chisel and his mallet to a mountain for expression. It goes without
saying he waa reared In Nebraska. So why not a great dramatist some day?

Hotel Guest Has
Mix with Robber
and Breaks Arm
Patrick Burns, guest ' at the Dodge
hotel, waa awakened at midnight by
noise of an Intruder whoae motive ap
peared to be robbery. Mr. Burns en
gaged the Intruder In a flatlo encounter,
which was temporarily stopped when
the stranger slapped burns on the face.
A tusale followed and the thief started
to ecaape with Burns In pursuit. In the
hallway the unwelcome visitor picked up
a water pitcher and hurled It at the
hotel guest, who Joet hla balance, fell
down the stairway and broke bis toft
srm. Mr. Hums lost $2.
George Off and E. M. Luther of the
Wellington hotel reported to the polloe
that their rooms were entered during
the night and two watches taken.
Mothers who throw up their hands
In horror and exclaim, "My son for
the ministry? Oh. no! I wouldn't
consider It!" were smartly rapped by
the Kev. W. E. Gardner of New York
at Brownell Hall this morning, be
for tbo Episcopal Woman's auxiliary
meeting.
"You mothers who refuse to per
mit your sons to enter the ministry
or who do not encourage them to do
so are taking from the church that
which keeps It alive. If this con
tinues we will come to the point
where will have no adequate minis
try. The parents will be to blame,
but tho mother has the first respon
sibility. I sometimes think there Is
a greater spiritual realization on the
part of children than there la on tne
part 0f their parents," said he.
Antiquated churh boards dealinK with
rellglnua education wMcli rcfuae to see
that tetlglous education Involves any
thins; clan but Sunday schools also came
In for a ilia re of the clergyman's dis
pleasure. "That Isn't the way to do Ood's bun.
nc.e. A system of religious education
through church schools should be evolved.
Secondary schools should be given more
attention.
"Don't limit your work to mission
study," he asked of the women.
MIstM Hare Averted T-oable.
The danger of asperating the work of
the church Into too many departments
waa also emphasised by Kev, Mr. Gard
ner. "The trouble In New Tork with the
board of missions would never have oc
curred If there had been some kind of
organization which embraced each de
partment of work and looked after the
Interests of all."
Mra Foster of Wyoming urged the
women not to let brldgo clubs, vaude
ville and joy rides Interfere with their
church work. "Tou are forgetting your
baptismal vows when you do,," she said.
Mrs. Burnalde of Bouth Dakota said
white women had been put to shame by
the generous contributions of Indian
wnmen In her state to the "united offer
Ins" rt of church work. Mra Burn
aide u- the women to learn sys
tematic giving.
Plehnp L R. Brewer of Montana of
the "apportionment plan" urged the
women to arrange for meeting the ap
portionment of their dlocrae more read
ily. The bishop ia a cousin of Mra A.
J. Poppleton.
Bishop Brewster filled the place In the
program for Mr. Crouch of New Tork,
who did not arrive. Mrs. Thomas of
Wyoming was also unable to be present.
Bev. lhlllp J. Delorla. called "the
Phillips Brooks of the Indians:." Mrs.
Ixjnjjley, wife of Bishop Lngloy of
Iowa; Mrs. J. W. Wstsok of Iowa and
Miss Elupeth Battle were other speakers.
An automobile ride and a tea at Trin

Foster Must Tell
Court Why He Would
Not Approve Bond
A rase t teat the legality of Police
Judge Charles E. Foster's new system of
rcftsliig to approve certain kinds of ap
peal bnnda haa been started In district
court by Attorney Dan Horrlgan.
District Judge Willie O. Bears baa la
sued an order allowing an alternative
writ of mandamus, under the require
ments of which Judge Foster must either
accept a certain appeal bond which he
formerly refused to approve or slae roust
nppear In district court to show cause
why he should not accept It,
Tho basis of the mandamus suit Is
Judge Foater's refusal to accept an ap
peal bond signed by Harry W'hlte, 2123
Case street, proprietor of the Aetna hotel
and saloon at Thirteenth and Dodge
atrects. The bond was offered when ap
peal was taken from the 'conviction of
Rosa Boll in police court, she having
been sentenced to ninety days In Jail.
The alternative writ of mandamus is
mndp returnable before Judge Sears Sat
urday mornlnir.

sppeal wss S200. White In his bond swore
thst he was worth 130,000 above debts and
liabilities.
