Notable Indian Folk Lore Drama
Presented by Lincoln Amateurs
Maule.v Phelps as "The Warrior,” Myra Murray as "The Captive” and Orin Stepuiiek as “The Drummer,"
in Dr. Hartley B. Alexander's “The .Scalp,” a dramatized Indian legend presented by the Lincoln Dramatic Arts club.
Marked euceeas attended the per
formance of ‘‘The Scalp," an Ameri
can Indian folk lore drama, by Dr.
Hartley B. Alexander, who wrote
the historical pageant for the Ak

her lover has been slain and scalped.
She never forgives her captor, but
gives herself to him in order to take
his scalp in revenge. To the Indians,
hair was a symbol of life and strength.
To taka a man’s scalp was to make
him disgraced in the future world,
and could he revenged only by secur
ing the scalp of the man or tribes
man of the person who had commit
ted the offense.
The playlet was marked off from
other folk lore drama by the use of
the drummer, who beat hl9 instru
ment during the scene. The drum was
a sacred magical instrument to the '
Indians, with it they got in touch
with tho Invisible world.
The program also included a 15th
century Japanese playlet, treated by
an ultra-modern method, and a group
of Spanish religious songs of the mid
dle ages, arranged by Kurt Schindler,
which were particularly well done.

Cudahy Company President Once
Boy Chum of Late Michael R. Murphy
m & •
When “Eddie’’ A. Cudahy, jr., was
a very small boy he became a great
chum of the late M. It. Murphy, who
in late years had been general man
ager of the Cudahy plant in South
Omaha.
At that time Mr Murphy was a
hog buyer for the company. But he
was the same kindly person as many
fhnahans had grown to love in inter
years, and ‘ Eddie’’ admired him
greatly.
When Eddie” was kidnaped Mr.
Murphy w'as one of the first to hear
of it. and one of those who suffered
the greatest grief, according to "old
timers." Mr. Murphy devoted all his
time and energy. In efforts to locate
and rescue ’’Eddie.” And w hen "Ed
die" was finally returned, after a bag
of gold had been given as ransom,
Mr. Murphy rejoiced greatly.
Little "fiddle," onee Mr. Murphy'*
chum, is now a mature man and
president of the Cudahy corporation.
"lfddic” was a pallbearer at the
Murphy funeral. He made no effort
to hide tho moisture which crept info
his eyes as ho helped bear the casket ;
containing the body of Mr. Murphy.
He had not forgotten the days when
Mr. Murphy had found time to show
him about the plant and explain the
things which had puzrb-d his boyish
brain. Nor In the Intervening years
has lie lost any of his love and ad
nilraiion t r Mr. Murphy, in the
opinion of mutual friends who at
tended the fun*rnl.

Kuhn said.
"The American Hallway association
lakes the position that machinery,

is now available to meet any emer

increase rather than decrease oper

U. S. Will Seek
Alaska Oil for
Fuel for Navy
•>
I.arjre Seepages of Oil Along
Aretic Coast Indicate
Presence of Petrole
um Deposits.
Washington. March IT.—The gov
ernment is preparing for future ex
trusive oil developments In arctic
Alaska as a source of fuel supply for
the navy.
The Department of the Interior for
the next six years will be engaged in
the preparation of plans for this de
velopment. Experts of the geological
survey will go to Alaska to make
scientific Investigation of soil forma
tions and rock strata to determine the
oil-bearing possibilities of the terri
tory.
The attention of the government to
Alaska as an oil field was the result
of the discovery of large seepages of
petroleum along the Arctic coast, with
other conditions regarded hy geolog
ists as favorable to the occurrence of
valuable petroleum deposits in the
Arctic region of Alaska.
To protect the region against in
vasion by prospectors until such time
is the government is ready to enter
upon its own development program.
President Harding has set apart as a
naval petroleum reserve a vast tract
of public lands in the Arctic const
section. The reservation will he only
to restrict oil and gas operations. T'se
of tho land* or adjacent waters for
other purposes recognized by law will
not be interfered with.
The reservation will extend from
the most northwestern extremity of
land shown on the maps of Alaska as
Icy Cape, which is approximately
latitude TO degrees 21 minutes and
longitude 161 degrees 46 minutes. It
will follow a true south course to the
crest of the range of mountains form
ing the watershed between the Noatak
river and its tributaries and the
streams flowing into the Arctic.
It will follow the crest of this range
eastward to a peak at the head of the
northernmost of the two eastern forks
of Midas creek, thence north to the
high water mark on the west bank of
Colville river, and thence following
down the river to the Arctic ocean
and thence to the point of beginning.
The reservation will embrace the
scores of small islands lying off the
Alaskan mainland, yet Included within

Sarah Bernhardt Racing With
Death in Effort to Complete
Farewell Drama for Movies\
—
Famous Actress Has Presenti
ment Knd Is Near—Wishes
Picture to Clear Debts
and Aid Son.
_, i
(l«inri||lit, 1922. International Sews
Nervier.)
Paris, March I*.—Raring with death
Mine. Sarah Hernlmrdt in engaged
on the last dramatic appearance of
her life—in the movie. Day by day
Mine. Bernhardt is weakening—her
vitality is ebbing under Ihe ravages
of the illnesh which is claiming her
life.
But Mine. Bernhardt does not wor
ry over her own physical condition.
She merely shrugs her shoulders and
murmurs:
"It cannot he helped.” '
Her hopes are borne up by the
fact that perhaps the film which she
is leaving her son, Maurice, will
go a long ways towards assisting him
financially and towards- paying off
the debts which she herself contract
ed through bad business ventures.
Presentiment of Death.
Even Mrne. Bernhardt herself has
the presentiment of death and ehe
bids her attendants hurry as though
she feared that the dread black wing
ed angel should appear before the
picture is finished.
The "projection room." as the pic
ture photographic chamber is called,
has been installed in Mme. Bern
hardt’s own home. She chose Beon
Abrams of New .York to organize
and direct the company which will
exhibit her "farewell."
Abrams is hastening the filming of
the picture at breakneck speed In or
der to get It completed before Mme.
Bernhardt's health gets so bad she
cannot appear at all, even in the
’’movies.”
The doctors are most secretive
about Mme. Bernhardt’s condition.
Only the parking of two motor trucks
with cinema paraphernalia revealed
the fact that moving pictures were
being taken in an improvised studio
In her home.
Eyes Arc Blight.
A reporter for Internationa! News
Service managed to gain entrance to
the house. There he found Mme.
Bernhardt acting with all her old
\erve beneath the glass top of her
conservatory. Her eve* were bright,
her cheeks flushed w.tii feverish in
terest.
Hut the most interesting thing of all
was the awe with winch stage hinds
and conservatory laborers beheld her.
The word was w hispered around:
"The madame comes."
Instantly cigarets were cast under
foot and trampl I into the ground.
I (4 Sarah E>cr£<K/vi>£/r
Coats were flung into the air to carry
off the tobacco smoke and hats were
held in hand.
With the regal air of queendom
Mme. Bernhardt entered.
Only the perfume of rose and vio
lets filled the air as Mme. Bernhardt
began on the “final farewell' of her
life. Mme. Bernhardt, on her appear
ance Friday, wore a blue morning
wrap with tong sleeves, the dainjy
ruffles covering long, white hands
with the blue veins showing on the
surface. There was a visible tremble
as she liegan.
The face was yellow with cracked,
parchment-like skin. Madame Bern
hardt is old and she does not attempt
to cheat nature by making up.
"It Is too much to lie; too much
exertion," declared the famous act
ress.
Mme. Bernhardt, even a year
ago, did not show her age so much as
she does today, because of the Illness
which has drawn her skin.
The farewell play in which Sarah
appears Is called “Bavoyante.” It is
the story of a paralyzed fortune teller
iivmg in Mont Marte in an attic with
only a trained chimpanzee for a com
panion and Jacquelin. a woman ser
vant who cares for the apartment and
feeds the monkey.
The scenes are most difficult, re
quiring constant repetition but never
once has Mme. Bernhardt shown any
I signs of Irritation.
The deafness of the actress re
quired much additional work and she
1 seemed worried over the annoyance
it caused her director. But signs of
annoyance were short lived, as she
was usually smiling at the New York
accent of Mr. Abrams’ French.
