The suppression of the ' 'Clerneaccan ' Caw ,
la Boston by Uio municipal authorities , tot
because of Miss Sibyl Jobnstono's "mold
ccnc , " but because of "her Impassioned
iovo jcenuln thelast net , " will cxcltoa storm
of Indignation among certain devotees ot the
Itnpe , mid create a still fjrcatcr ilrslro on the
pirt of the general public to witness this
latest realistic drama from the French.
Slljjl Jotmstono is not unknown toOmaha
tmdlcnces. Several seasons ago she toured
the -west in ono of Hartley Campbell's com-
faniwplajlnf ? In "Clio , " and her drwlngof
the part vlll too vividly recalled bythohab-
Uucs of the theater. Later she supported
Kobson nnJ Crauo in "Tho Henrietta. " ami
her last appearance In Omaha WM made
through tto medium of "Mankind , " a lurid
Englhh raolodramawhich proved a signal
failure , although the company was -unusually
Itronp.
So much for history.
Wbllo I deplore , as every devoted theater
goer must , the cause for the suppression of n
( ealhtlu dmrnaycb , the staR-ohas omission
to t nllill , Its morals must bo kept up , even to
the exclusion ol ftll play * that vould tend to
lower , In the slightest decree , the coiwcicnco
Of tto public.
TIioposo pliutlquo In the bisommt of a
dive Is n most pernicious Institution and a
paiiKerouscnorny to public morality. But the

w a km ( U and n onjoyiueat , or at least it was
Until the Boston authorities decided that the
'CU'ineiici'iiu Caso" K us too warm for the
residents of the Back Bav district.
It is qulto Impossibles for a dive
to attract my body , tut those ho 111 go In
pitoof the police , those ivlio If they cannot
prutlfy their loiv tastca ono \ \ nj will gratify
llioin another. The police arc called upon to
Hrrest tlicwonica intho dive ; but until now
the women in the theater could po on prostl-
tutiiif ( the art of the stie , Uealizeil by a
Cuslmmti , a Rachel , n Sldlons , an .Anderson'
n ICendalywithouthindrance.
One tiling is sure , the rising generation
have far less to fear from the dives than they
have from the printing press that scatters
lllthy books over the land under the pulse of
"litcmturo" and from tno alleged reputable
stajjowhcro vomonwhoiO tnlcatlus failed
to atlr.ut attention , outrage decency to
achieve public notice ,
Thccrvof llgh art and realism nnd other
meaningless things -\\hIeU over-zealous

at nil. All tto success of the
Sibyl .folinstonc * docs not ono whit affect the
purer objieta ol the stage. 1C for the nonce a
manager , to niako money , mate the theater
an accessory , an adjunct of the bagnio , it
does not perhaps Inflict any very serious m-
Jurj ovonou public morality , ljut for the sake
of the rising generation safeguards should bo
thrown around then lest in a moment of
thoughtlessness , fired by what they have
Been , thc-ypo and do like wise.
Tlio ( juestlon of modesty does not Ho In
tuo exposure of the figure as
much as in the way It is exposed.
In n ball-room ono 9bes what ho may call
moileUly und Immodestly dressed women ,
pud yob the difference lu the dress may bo
very slight.
IVlodesty is taste. Fashion dictates dress ,
batlt leaves the proper application of itsde-
Bigiis to the individual.
lu some parts of the far Orient the female
flguru Is never altogether hidden , and fre
quently It ia lavishly exposed , but without
evident Intention. The Japanese maiden trots
along the street with her kimono Hying open ,
but } ou never dream of calling her Immodest.
Bu t u-fiou a woman , iu order to sacrifice lior-
eolf for art , as she says , poses oven for so
Binalla Twrttonof time as a minute , appear
ing In a skin-tight riK , without even ubit
of rlblKJii to hldo the cutitour of her nat
ural tlpuro , then It U high time for
the public censor to rise un and
take a hand in stamping out an evil , which If
permitted to Keen , would plunge bodctyinto
moral depravity as bathesonioas in the days
of Nero und undent Rome.
13ut tbeso eihlbitlous , In wlilch Ilss John-
Btone has created such a sensation , are hap-
'plly growing less. The stapo Is gradually
nssuuiliiK its proper spheres In the world.
Tallcnted men nnJ women , are seeking it ,
nnd their association cannot help but be ben-
cllclal.
U'tic bandsomo actor with nothing else to
recommend him , Is finding himself with other
"statues" hnatflnK around street corners.
3uo ? woman who has found an honest vlfo's
lot too tinno forhorand who puffs her tawdry
ecnndal , her vulgar amours , her shamcless-
ness before tto public only raises nn aggres-
elvo coutcmpt now.
Iho public want talent , they want brains ,
they want art , they want acting. They wont

Intflllgcnco nnd a kind of actor or actress
whoso merit lies In what they do on the

They want artistic not Indecent display.
.And should this review prove ol benefit to

Itcmhilsuciit ortrcDolll.
'When Jslme. Trobclll and her companies ,
writes her biographer , were traveling
through Scandinavia , they otton had difficulty
In obtaining such a meal as they wished.
They had , hovovcr , ono unfailing gastro
nomic resource eggs ; these were always to
be bad. They almost lived on them , and
used to say the visit to Scandinavia might bo
called the "Keg Tour. " This pave Mow ,
Trobclll the Idea of making a design fora
scarf-pin a tiny enamel egg In a gold epg-
cup and of sending itto n jeweler in Paris.
Shu received the pins and presented ono to
each member of her company. In Russia , the
Jeweled egg led to a ludicrous adventure.
.Mme. Trebelll's knowledge of Hussian was
limited. .At Toulawishing to order cirgs for
breakfast , and not ktio\ving the word for the
article , she first tried to explain In
what Itussian she knew , then
In several other Impinges , but
all to no purno o. Signer Eisaccia , who
was proient , happened to bo wearIng -
Ing one of tbe ctrg pins , so Iilmo. Trobclll
pointed to the miniature egg , and having
failed In .French , Italian nnd German , said la
English , "Look , lookl" to attract tlio wait
er's attention. Tlio waiter smiled , and
answering "All right , " in Russian , disap
peared. Ilreakfast was served , and ho
placed triumphantly before them a huge
dish of fried onions I They did not know
then , but they found out later , that "look" Is
the llussian word for ottion. Slenor Blsac-
cla thougnt be might succeed better. Going
up to the waiter , ho repeatedly pointed to his
scarf pin , and fearing to use words which
might again bo misunderstood , merely ejacu
lated : "Ah ! Huml Iluml" The man
madoslgns that ho understood at last ; but
ho vas pone a long time. Finally ho re
turned with a doctor , liiving come to the
conclusion-ana certainly his interpretation
did credit to his wits that Signer Ilbaccia
was suffering from a bad sort ) throat.
9frs. l'ottcr'n Australian Success.
Mrs. Jnmss Brown Potter , who has gained
flesh and gold oswellas n popular triumph In
Australia , is on the ocean now with a com
pany of her own , which slio hired as a specu
lation with part of the profits of her season
lu Sydney nndMellwrno. Just before sailIng -
Ing- for Calcutta , whcro slio opens Oct , 1 for
a long season. Mrs Potter woto that on
the Fourth of July the Americans gave her a
great send off at the Princess theater , which
was garlanded with the stars and stripes
and handsome floral pieces , and she was ia-
vitcdto read the Declaration of Independence
at the fete which on that day Connnt
Griflen , tin American ! resident in Sydney ,
always gives to his country men and women.
"There are really only two big cities in
Australia" Mrs. Potter writes. "Melbourne )
Is splendid and Sydney is divinely beautiful
All the other places arc , theatrically speak
ing , only two or three night stands. I am
putting some ol ray Australian gold Into spe
culation and takiupra company of fourteen
artists , nnd two scene painters up to India.
I have hadn big guarantee from a syndicate
of Bcntlornen in Calcutta. I play four niphts
In Ceylon , In Calcutta cipht weeks , nnd then
go overland to Bombay where I play a month.
Then I no to Madras , Dack to Ceylon and
back to Sydney. It will bo the first big the
atrical entcrorlso ever taken to India and
they call it American though lam'tho only
American la tbe company. "
Dlxey Unpopular -with Women. i
Henrj- . Dhey , who has probably seen
his best days as a popular comedian. Is an all-
night fellow , lend of men's society , but un
popular vlth the women of his company , for
ho is a martinet , and a rather brutal one , In
business. His associations arc seldom with
thomembors of his company , however ; ho
prefers bard drinkers and undoubtedly has
est prcstlgo in neglecting his business In
'aver of ull-nlght bouts.
Louis Harrison likes few people. Ho Is a
jralny nun and praters thu discussion of ab
struse subjects to the ordinary tittle-tattle of
.ho profession ; ho hates gatherings and says
.nut no club compares with his home.
Do Wolf Hopper Is tm aivfully popular
man In his set , and In fact a great portion of
lis state success Is duo to his ability in maki
ng personal f riendshlps. Ho Is whole-souled ,
always Jolly , but no ono has ever jet been

PUBLIC SCHOOL JAMOKS ,
Their Manifold Duties aa Provided by the
Board of Education ,
THE PRINCELV SALARIES THEY RECEIVE ,
How the \Vngcs of Janitors nro Graded
anUtlio Manner of Their Election
to the 1'osltlon wlilcli
Thcjr Occupy ,
Although they do not teach , the janitors of
the public schools of the city are so closely
associated with the course of education that
they nro looked upon by the tnemoers of the
school board as a part of the machinery ot
the schools. There are forty-two of these
people , one for every school house vlthtntho
corporate limits , nnd last month the total
amount of their pajroll amounted to ( J,7o9.50.
The general pubilo has but little idea of
the duties to bo peforraed by the Janitors.
That no mistakes may bo made , the board
furnishes each Janitor with a cede of laws.
pertaining to the requirements of tho'
position. In this code there are
numerous rules , waning from " .A" to ' 'M"
nnd according to the exact language of the
rules , each janitor shall bo required :
a. Tothoroiiphlrsvreep thobutlillnc In his
cinrgo each afternoon afu > r tlio close of
school , and to carefully dust dosls. scats ,
doors , windows , balusters etc , on each niorn-
Inzntsuch nn hour ns to allow tlio dust to

for the day's USD.
( ( . To rlnx the bolls at such hours as the
principal may direct. ,
f. To keep all walks frco from snow and
Ice.
/ . To attend to the cleaning of stoves ,
stove-nlnos and furnace' .
(7. ( To look the doors of nil out-liousos , and
the outsldo doors of school houses , and to
fasten the windows before ho leaves the
building each owning. , . .
h. To wind the clou ks anil regulate thoin.
and to see that they aruon uniform time caoli
morn Int. . . ,
t To thoroughly clem. In every part , the
entire building and promise * during Ci
vacation. . , , .
j. AVhcn required by the nrlnclpil to re
move desks and benches or fasten thorn
down , and make such slight repairs as may bo
to the prltjclpal nny repairs
necessary ubout the building not Included
I. Toroport totho secretary the receipt of
any fuel ttiatd < xs not couio up to standard
required by the board.
m. And toperform such otber duties asmay
be required by tuo principal.
The duties required under the last para
graph are numerous , ns the the janitor maybe
bo required to walk to the ofllco of the super
intendent to report a refractory pupil , or ho
may bo compelled to bunt the tow a over to
find a member of the committee on heating
and ventilation , to repair a furnace , or stop a
leak In some of the pipes alwut the building ;
but notwithstanding ull of this , janitors are 11
well paid class of people. They receive their
pay monthly , nnd according to the rules of
tno board are paid Irom { 15 to $150 per
month.
The highest paid janitor Is Thomas Fal
coner ot the high school , This gentlomau re
ceives a salary of $150 per month
during tbo months the schools aio in
session nud fc. " > per month during
vacation , besides being furnished room , rent ,
fuel and lights. There are others who re
ceive salaries that are somewhat princely iu
proportion-as follows : William Oreselman ,
of thollartman school receives JU0.50 per
month ; Charles Kolo of the Lake school
USTi ; Henry Busth oC the Long school , tl ± i
MlkoFord of thoPaciflo school , SIM.
Of the the forty-two janitor on the payroll
eight are paid SUW or more per mouth each ,
while live manage to oio out an existence by
drawing upon the school board treasury for
(15 ( each month. These people who are paid
the low salaries are : Charles ManstleU , at
Hckermun : Mary McCausland , Fort Omaha
\Voeincr , at Gibson ; A. M. Johnson , a
\ VestSideandV.T. . Johnson , at the Sher
man school.
People frequently wonder why the salaries
at these schools nre so low. It is simply be
cause tbe janitors care for but ono room each ,
and for this work the board has fixed the
salury at 815 per month.
That the public may fully understand the
question of janitors salaries , the following
pay-roll is given. This applies to buildings
boated by stoves or furnaces !

manner aa the teachers. They file their ap-

the applications are considered by a commit
tee that reports to the board. If the applica
tions nro considered favorably the applicants
are elected by the votes of the members ana
assigned totho respective school houses.
Of the forty-two Janitors employed this
year twelve are ladies , who are stationed at
