THE OMAHA DAILY BJEEONDAY. : J\LAY \ 11. 1801. NOT A VERY HAPPY FAMILY , Labor Reformers Who Ara Not Altogether Harmonious In Their Efforts. ' DISCUSSION AT THEIR LAST MEETING. "Woes of the Mn c i Diluted Upon An Atlcinpt to .S < | iii'1oli tlio Inxvycr IVhtuli KailuU Most Sunnily. Some fifty members of the Omaha Inde pendent club mot at their ball on Fifteenth street yesterday afternoon to select delegates to attend the Industrial conference that meets In Cincinnati Tuesday. May VS. D. C. Dovors was introduced by President Kelsey nnd spoke upon tbo subject , "De- Dressed America. " Hosaid the Indications are that the people of this country nro prosperous. They are not. The owners of the farms and the buildIngs - Ings of America are mortgaged for more than they are worth. The railroids are owned by foreign capital. Go to London nnd you will find that the wealthy men of that city own America. The dcods to the finest buildings in Chicago -are held bv men who llvo In London. If this thing con tinues it will not bo long baforo the children of this country will bo turned out of doori and become an army of tramp ? . These s&mo money sharks of England hnvo foreclosed the mortgages and taken posses sion of moro than seventy-five thousand ncres of land In this country. If this system Is not changed ere long , there will bo a revolution bloodier than any of tbo people of this world hnvo over witnessed. President Kelsey spoke upon tno subject , "Whither Are Wo Drifting ns a Nation and a People' " Ho referred to the war of. the rebellion , Baying"As the result of that war wo struck the fetters from J.OOU.OUO blacks nnd rlvoUxl them upon lh.OOtXM ) ( of whites. " Continuing , ho said the congress of the United Hiatus is controlled by English capi tal. The country Is n country lor the batiks , of the binks nnd with the banks. "Imaginefrro America. " said ho , "when In tbo little state of Hhmlp Island jn.dOi ) mon nro disfranchised simplv because tnoy are nut property owners Shame on that state. The constitution provides that before a man can bo a voter ho must own * Ktl worth of property. " "Wo call this u free country , but look at it today. Fifty men with their millions of money can put their heads together and con trol congress In such a inannor as to stop all JpglslfUlun. Still they will tell us that this Is a free country. " "Shall wo stand Idly by , whiln wo are drifting into this gulf ! Shall wo talk of sup ply and demand , when in one end of t.o ! country they have coal that thev cannot sell , nnd In tlio other etui 01 the land they have corn that they must cat and burn because there Is no market ) " Ho denied that the laooring men are com munists and said that if the flap should bo assailed , thousands of them would rush to its protection. Ho stated that the American Hag is no longer the Hag of libctty , nor the emblem of freedom. Ho thoucht that instead of send ing mon to the south to give the colored men the right to vote , it would tie n good plan to send n few soldiers to Hhodo Uland to give the poor white voters some chance for their llvos. The election of delegates was declared to bo In order. C. W. Miller was placed in nomination. 1. P. Brigham objected , claiming that Miller is to represent South Omaha in the conference. William Mulhnll was nominated , but de clined to servo. The president suggested that Omaha is entitled to thrco delegates. J. W. Kdgcrton , T. B. Mlnimlum and T. C. Kolsoj were placed In nomination. William Mulhall stepped upon the i-ostrum and de livered n thrilling speech. Ho said : "Tho ' . ' . 'i.OOO laboring mon of Omaha should bo ashamed of themselves. Hero Is n meet ing called tn the interest of laboring men , and only a few nro present. The mon who should crowd this hall are absent , and I tell you it is not encouratring. These men ask us to assist them , but when the time comes they are not willing to assist themselves. " lie rnked tl.o Central labor union fore and oft nnd charged that it only appropriated S.V ) to bear the expenses of the lobbjisu who were at Lincoln last winter in the "interest of labor mutters. Mr. Mulnall was called to order. T. B. Mlnnahan regarded the attendance as oncouraclng. Jesse lilako said the laboring men did not dare attend the meeting for fear of being rr-6pottod nnd discharged. > J. W. Tiornoy Knew better. The laboring ' men nru not afraid and the non-attendance was on account of their own negligence. Ho said : "You will find them in the grog shops and tbo alleys Instead of being bore to work for their Interests. " John Hall know the laboring men are afraid tu attend labor meetings. He de nounced Tiorncy's tnlic as wind. Louis Ihms did not like tbo Idea of two lawyers going ns delegates , Ho Thought it unfair to the working men , who are In tbo malority. S. J. Urodorlck asked If the lawyers are not laboring men. Ho was answered by a loud cry of " .No ! " "Aro they not useful members of society ! " ho mked. "No"1 catno from two score of throats. Mr. Minnalmn said bo would not be n can didate unless it was the wish of the meet ing."If "If I go , " said he , "It will not bo alone for the laboring men , but for all classes. " C. W. Miller thought it good policy to mnko the lawyers stay in the back ground. "They have boon elected to the legislature nud now sco the result , " said ho. Colonel Harry Van AUtino knew that the lawyers killed nil the labor bills that were Introduced nt the last session of the legisla ture. ture.As n compromise , nnd to prevent any bad blood , J. W. Edgertonvas declared a dele gate nt largo , Minnalmn nnd Kelsey elected and the power of selecting tbo third delegate conferred upon n committee consisting of D. C. Devers , Louis Ihms nnd T. H.

Despite the chilliness of the nir yesterday the band concert nt Hanscom park attracted fully five thousand people to that sylvan re treat , where art and nature seem to meet in pleasing competition. For several hours tbo principal drives nnd wulKs leading into the park b came rivulets of humanity , nnd during the concert , which lasted until 5 in the afternoon , choirs and rustle seats In tbo vicinity of tbo band stand were in great demand. The porticos of the handsome now pavilion were thronged with Indies ami gentlemen anil hundreds stood or snt upon the green sword on the hillside , where tbo melody rose and fell the breezes. upon The driveways were filled with vehicles and the swingi In the glen near the lower lake were ullvo with children. Cosmopolitan Omaha was nt the park In Its hnpplost mood. Mr. llaiduff , the caterer opened the now tl.VUO pavilion for the first time to the public. The Musical union band rendered tbe pro gramme to the evident satisfaction of tbo thousands who listened. Superintendent Adams and a BKB man made u tour of inspection over the park. "You will observe , " said Mr. Adams nt tbo outset , "that the work wo are doing now makes a per ceptible improvement in tbo appearance of the park. Last year wo did tbo rough , heavy work that was absolutely necessary . .as a foundation for what bad to fallow. From now on every stop wo take will be soou in the increased beauty of these prounds , and bv next year the grandeur of Mr. Cleveland's plain \\ill bccln tu LM appreciated. " Tbo brooklet that loads from tbo upper to the lower lake has been bedded with stone nnd gravel , end its banks h To been beauti fully godded down to the gravel bottom. The cascade , near the south west corner of the grounds , that wasn't a cascade because It was a toboggan slide , lias b.-on rebuilt , The docllno of perhaps forty feet from the | > olnt nt which the tvater escapes to the bed of the lake below has been paved with Rranlto blocks nnd nt short Intervals along the course of the water the atones project above the level sur face , causing the wat r as It rushes down to leap and spatter nnd spurt , bcatlnp nnd churnIng - Ing Itself into froth and foam by tbo time it reaches the bottom. Mr. Adams has planted creeping vines along the margins of the water course , that will In tlmo creep up and cover all tbo rocks not washed br the falling water. The banks alone tno ravine nenr the cascade have been thickly set with shrubbery , and In n few years will present a very natural and hand some appearance. "Wo have planted woodbine nbout the naked trees along the principal walks nnd drives , " said Mr. Adams , ns ho paused In tbo ratnbleto point out n large tree , against whoso gnarled surface a tender vine was making IU way toward the sky , "and you may notice as wo pass along that some of the vines have already made considerable growth. " Prom the drive on the hill nt tbo south side of the park and at several other points the superintendent called attention to the views that may bo obtained through the chiaroscuro of Ino foliage. "Wo have labored to orcscrvo most of the real good trees , " said tbo superintendent , "and at tbo same time to provide a number of perspective vlow.s that will bo and are now very beautiful and effective. There Is such n tblng , you know , as making a sixty- acre p.irk look like it is t00 ! acres. The vistas or glimpses through the trees from cer tain points nre beautifully deceiving. 1 stooj hero the other day with a gentleman from Chicago who would scarcely believe mo when I told him it was only a quarter of n mile to the hill yonder above the old park houso. He supposed from the peculiar pers pective of the view we have through the trees from here that it was fully half a mile. SOUTH OJl.tll.l. KiHlcil III Sliootlnt * .

St. Philomena's cathedral was tilled last evening to its fullest capacity , bcorea of chairs , crowded Into over > available place , wore all taken , while many who wore unable to enter the church proper were willing to oc- cupv standing room in the vestibule. The occasion that called this large and thoroughly appreciative nudienco together was an evening of sacred music given by St. Philomeua's cfioir , assisted by Mr. Jules Lumbard , Lieutenant John Klnzle , Boyd's oponi house orchestra , under the direction of Mr. Len II. Salisbury , nnd the Omaha string quartette. Both of the cathedral choirs were Joined in ono grand chorus for the occasion , under the direction of Miss Fannie Arnold. Miss Margaret Swift onesided at the organ. The program was quite an elaborate affair of thirteen numbers. Aside from the orches tral work , which was in Itself a treat , the solos and choruses wore very pleasing and exceedingly well rendered. Several { .elections from Haydn's mass in D were suug ; "Gloria in Excelsis , " Mrs. Downey and choir ; "Gratlas Agirnus , " Miss Swift and choir ; "Qui Tollls , " Mr. Luinburd and choir. A quartette , consisting of Miss Arnold , Mrs. Ultter , Messrs. Kinzio and Br.iun , sang "Gratias Agimus" from Clmarosa's military mass , and Miss Kennedy the soprano solo , "Quonintn tu Solus. " Mr. Braun , Mi s Arnold and Mrs. Ultter with tlio choir sang the "Kyrll" from the same composition. Miss Arnold sang Fnuor's "Sancta Mariu" very sweetly , with orchestral accompani ment. Lieutenant Kinzio sang Gounod's "Ave Maria , " with violin obligate by Prof , E. J.

Bor- en & Solleok Co. , Chicago , lit MY IDEAS OF CLEOPATRA , The Difftranca Between Helen of Troy and Egypt's ' Queen. FANNY DAVENPORT CONTRASTS THE TWO. Ono Content with the Admiration Crcnti'il by Her llcntity , the Other Influenced by Anl- niul I'awslon. My Ideas of Cleopatra are founded upon the thoughls of master minds nnd my own study. My suggestlous to these nbout to em brace dramatic art n.s a profession are founded upon my personal experience of over twenty- two years. Helen anil Cleopatra nro models never wearying contemplation , because of their total dissimilarity. Helen was beautiful every inch n queen but listless aud Inani mate , perfectly passive , whether in the arms of her husband , Mcnelaus , or with her lover Pans. She was content with the admiration created by her beauty , and accepted with out emotion the knowledge that her loveli ness inspired the Trojan cause moro than love of country , and encouraged Hector to deeds of va'.or moro than hope of personal glory. Without emotion , too , she could re- all/o "for every false drop In her sluggish veins a Grecian life sunk ; for every fcruplo of her contaminated carrion weight a Trojan slain. " In seeking for a lover to supply Cii-sar's piaco she demanded equal afllnitv , and had bho searched tno world over she could not have fouml it moro perfectly developed than In Antony. Ho was admirably adapted In every way to continue too story of Ccsar's : ninoun , nnd it was lilting that ho should boA tbo last bccauso the best of Cleopatra's loves. ANTONY'S I ItAUUTKIt. A thorough appreciation of Antony's char acter Is necessary fora thorough uppieciatlon of Cleopatra's. Julius dinar's UtMth was the stepping stone of Marc Antony's fume. His entrance t3 the triumvirate was natural. Hold , ener Mc , vigorous in lusty manhood , full of annual magnetism , his impression was left when hU presence was withdniwn. Ho was , i royal luvcr , rcadv to swap klnirdoms lor Kisses and ransom lives for jests. Ho was not a man of strong mind. He passed under tno t dominion of Egypt's queen as quietly ns the t prisoner goes to his cell. My ideas of ICgypt's ' amorous queen being founded on such a model , I cle.irly saw what overv ac tress j has foil , that Snakdpearo's Cloopatr.i was unavailable for thost.igo. She Is n virago and a heroine.at one moment full of caprice , at the ' next ollering her life as a sacrifice. Hur sincerity . is doubtful at timesher love often brutal. The actions who would essay such a paitmust be a soubrette aud premiere , a ] tragedienne and comedienne at onco. She could leave no distinct impression , she could delmiatc no clear outlines worthy of locogni- lion. I have rather choseu Sardou's crea tion , because while all the entirety of Cleo patra's character is preserved In it , she is consistent ever in her love for Antony. She makes It "her woman's shame , but her woman's glory , " and as Her last request on cartli asks that her body may bo so preserved that the decay of de.ith may not reach it , in the hope that Antony , seeing it , might still find Intact the beauty that enthralled him. Who shall say which of the two playwrights had the better con ception of Cleopatra. Snakespearo , at the dawn of English literature , with nothing but Latin precedent upon which to found his model , or Sardou , in theglaro of the present century , with steam , telegraphy nud modern resources , exhausting auelont research i Shakespeare had no idea of the size of Cleo patra. Sardou , like myself , has gazed upon her mummy preserved In the British museum. TfllVIVO TO TUB OIIII , . And now I turn to tno girl in the freshness of her youth , with all her life before her , nbout to embrace the stage and seeking sorno advice for her guidance. Mv flrstquostion to you Is : What nro your aims nnd expecta tionsf Lot me bo plainspoken to you. If you hive a good voice nnd figure and a share of quick perception and see in the stage only tbo opportunity of u lazy life , with more sal ary than you can earn in any other walk of life , become at once a professional and you will attain to all you hope for. You will have tbo knowledgothat you ore contributing your pooi1 share to the debasement of a most noble profession. While your yoath lasts you will bo enabled to pander to your caprices. When old ago comes not the old age of legitimate time , but the few years of your doubtful usefulness , misery and poverty will como , and what will become of you ! I do not v/ish hero to raise the curtain disclosing the condition of life of thousands of women , who prostitute art to their selfishness , such us you wish to do. Retribution follows crime as unerringly as the day the night. I dismiss this class of stage aspirations as unworthy of notice , and turn to the girl whoso ambitions are honest , whoso love of dramatic art is real for the art's sake. She must have talents , but the pos session of them is not tbo first question I would usk ns the condition precedent to her success. Hather , is your strength of charac ter test-proof against temptation * And un derstand by this question I do not impute im morality to the stage per so. I state that my long experience warrants , that its allure ments to temptation are greater than in any other walk of llfo ; consequently the glory to the woman who resists them. Your recluse In the desert who Is virtuous because igno rant of temptation Is a drivelling Your cold temperaments , Joy In their honor because ab normal In their creation , nro creatures not worthy of emulation ; but the actress , proud of her calling , a lover of her art , who scores her triumphs by her merits , and whom no seductive llattcry can win away from her art love such n woman Is a heroine. AXOTIIKll WOKtl. The combination system leads mo to offer another word , not of discouragement God forbid to tbo hinoat , ambitious beginner on tbe stage , but rather to lay bolero her the real discomforts of the IIfo she is choosing. The necessities of tbo combination system render quick appearances in different cities from Maine to California necessary. The adjuncts of those qutcx changes are inces sant railroad travel , with all Its discomforts , changes of climate and diet , changes from dressing-room to slecplne-car at midnight , changes from comfortable hotel chambers to the comfortless rooms of cheerless Inns. And these chances are a trial of strength. or temper ami or health. The conclusion Is that , unless you have n strong and vigorous constitution , your lot In vour chosen pro fession will bo n nard ouo , at the expense of health. A celebrated musician once said that the constant practice of the scales for two years without any other musical effort should war rant the ability to slug any piece of music. So with you. Years of practice in the lowly roles which you will Mil should warrant you in aspiring to n higher character. This higher character will como to you with oppor tunity ; it mav bo an understudy of some ono else , but it will come , und then your efforts of study will bo rococnliod. Your move ments from the result of this opportunity will b . ' as rapid as your progress before was'slow and vour flight upward afterward will bo rapid. This , tn brief , Is the secret of dramatic suc cess. Dornoslhenci replied , when asked the thrco requirements of oratory ! "Action1 action ! action" ' I say to the aspiring ac tress with honest ambition : Study , study , study. Your fluid N broad , your triumph's grand , and in all spheres of woman's useful ness. 1 know no grander hfo than that of nn actress. Approach the temple of art with these feelings nnd these resolves , como toll with clean hands , and a clean lifo. and rest assured that in the long run you will attain to all your aspirations conceived of , nnd all your ambitious hoped for , and In the days of vour triumphs romcmlw mo truly if 1 have boon the means in any way of contributing to the success J wish you. you.FAVXT They Out it uf Coursn.

Uln- vntsky-iller Ijlfo. Tbo intelligence of the death of Mme. niavatsky was received'with regret by tho- isophlsts. There are few of them In Omaha , , nd of course like the rest of the followers of his peculiar belief In America nud Knglutid , hey have looked up to the Husslan woman as the aircnt through whom they could com municate with the Huddhlst masters of India. Ouo of tbo prominent local thcosoptilsts restorday explained why it was that MILO , IJlavatsky's friends lot thrco weeks pass after the cremation at Welting before thev sent out the news of the death to the world. This is bis explanation 1tl "When a person dies the monad which Is tlb ho name we have for the three higher attri butes of tbo being , the dlvlno spark , tlio spiritual soul which is tbo vehicle of the tli- vine spark , and the intellect or manas U slowly released from the biscr mass , taking from that mass whatever is good nnd pure nnd worth taking away The disunion does not occur at onco. It may take a whole day during which the person Is not wholly un conscious of occurrences on this plane. IJellef iu this was the origin of the common practice of 'sitting up witb the dead' and the knowledge that the person knows what Is said or done nbout him cvon after the spirit bus ap parently tied was the cause In the beginning of the necessity for seemly conduct nt the cofllu side. Mme. Hlavntsky has been in my recollection twice called back from that transitionarv stage by a certain power in order that she might finish her great work. When I hoard that the third volume was in the hands of the printer and that the fourth was nearly ready in manuscript I know that , the oid laly's work being done , tier monad might be expected to wing its flight , and I was not surprised nt today's announcement. "But to explain further the reason for withholding the report Besides the stage of separating I have mentioned there Is also a period , long or short , as the person was highly developed spiritually or uot , in which the monad rests In the astral sphere , where it is susceptible of human influences , rsow , you know , a thought whether hateful or pleasant Is not lost ; It is Intangible on our piano , but iu the astral it becomes a form and has power , Now Mme. Hla- vatsky had many powerful ene mies In this country , und If they Itrew she was dead while vbo was In the astral sphere their ill thoughts and hatred might bo powerlul to work her discomfort till her monad started for Dovachan , where it is beyond the reach of human malice. Madam , being highly developed spiritually , would not have long to stay In the astral , and , three weeks having passed since her death , it is safe to believe that her monad has gone beyond the power at our enemies. " "Do you believe she will bo reincarnated ! " "I certainly do. 1 do not think she will stay in Devachan , but that her monad will again ur.tor som3 nuuian form. The madam is entitled to a long rest Sbo has been n sufferer for ten years from a dropsical af fection and I am glad her spirit has cast off the painful shell. " The materialist would say this Is the end of Mme. Blavat'ky. The orthodox would have serious doubts as to her future con dition. These not versed in the triad and quartornary of man or the astral appearance nnd In the usefulness of Mnhatmas , who are teachers but never teach , confining themselver to the uninteresting Himalayan plateaus , will probably regard the whole thing as bosh. Xbu faithful , however , will not grieve , for by their doctrine the madam may not disappear in tbe solaces of Is'irvaub for a long tlmo to como. From the tboosopliical point of view , however. It would bo unsafe to say that Mme. lllavatsky will como back as Mine. IIlavatsKy. She may bo a man next time. She may be ono of those venerable do-nothing mummies of the Himalayan plato.au. She may bo neither man nor woman next tlmo , if some of her habits in this incarnation hnvo been correctly described , for each life shows thunext incarnation by its own actions. A Item irknblo Career. Helena Potrovinu Hahn , whoso doatn is announced , was born in Ekateriuslow , in South Russia , in IS'Jl. In 184S she was mar ried at the airo of snventeeu , to General Bla- vatsky , whose age was placed bv the bride s people at various states of senility ranging from lifty to seventy years. She did not live but thruo months with the general , and those three months were full of the most exciting domestic storms. Af.fr three months of wrangling , she ono day escaped und went to Constantinople. At this point her wan derings began. The tender , fragile bride of 17 became the elephantine Mruo. Blavatsky , of theosophlcnl notoriety. Mme. Ulavatskv came to America in 187.5 , taklug out her nat uralization papers a short time after landing. In 1S71 she began the series of manifesta tions that made her world famous. In that year , too , tue Theosophlcal society was founded , of which Colonel Olcott , whom Mme. Blavatsky had met with tbo Eddys nnd others at a Vermont farmhouse , was made the president. Madame Blavutsky was enor mous in size and weighed moro than IliX ) pounds. Shorarnly went out of the house , as it taxed her strength too greatly. Sh < uover was addicted to tuo use o : alcoholic liquors , but was nn Inces saut smoker and at times experienced great difficulty in refraining from the prac < tice long enough to deliver u lecture. She could swear iu all languages , but there was n certain novelty and polish about her swear ing that destroyed much of the unpleasant impression it made at first on poisons who made her acquaintance. She were tbo con ventional nttlro of her sex usually , but her fancy was oriental In the matter of materials from America she wont to India to plant the Theosophlcal society in that soil , and dur ing the long years spent there with Colonel Olcott , at Madras and elsewhere , gave ninny manifestations of tbe power of the mysteri ous occult master , of whom she was the visl bio agent. These manifestations consisted ol tin ) sudden appearance of letters in all sorts of places containing immodute written an- Myers to mental questions of different per sons ; of gold letters nnd shining characters bursting forth from the walls ; of the tlylne of articles through space tc Mmo. Blavalskv's hands , nnd all the other phenomena which have made her name famous and her power inyitery. She returned to Europe in lS and then followed the exposure by the Coulo tuna nml thn KrtMntt- 1'svphlr'nl IfpQnrit Before this , however , Mmo. Blavatsky made many converts In London , 1'aris and in portions tions of Oormany. A peculiarity of Mmo. Blavatsky was her dislike of meat as nn oil- We. Sha revolted \U the English taste for rare beef , though it was Impossible to resist the impression that she did so largely on ac count of her violent Anglopbobia. Among the persons who beenrno converts to her re markable theories and doctrines was Mrs. Annlo Besant , who ortmfc to tins country from London u short time ago. She delivered sev eral lectures on theosotrtiy , the last being la Tuesday. During the lecture Mrs Besant suddenly remarked * " ! have received a message from Mme Balvatsky and will ru- turn to England. " Wednesday she took passage - sago on the steamship City of Chicago , sail ing the same day. U is not Known whether she had previously hoard of the death of Mine. Blavatsky or whether she had Just learned the news.
