There was n , representative audience
present Friday opening in the assembly room
of the Woman's flub on the occasion of the
recital by tlici pupils of Mine. Muentefer-
Ing , and the yvJUjn expretslons of praise ac
corded the uiadanio and her pupils showed
how thoroughly * the work of the young plan-
Istes was appreciated , Mica Simla Brady ,
Miss Mildred Loranx , Miss Hester Taylor
and Mine. Muqntpferlng opened the program
by playing -tho - , wedding march by Soder-
mann. for tiywj pianos. lho tempo and attack
showing the skillful training which Mme.
Muenteferlng had Imparted to her pupils.
Miss Bessie Brady , a vivacious little tot ,
played Glllet'x airy composition , "Sounds
from the Ball Room , " In a very plquanto
mancer , bringing out the motif In a style
that was very artistic for one BO young. Van
Wllm's variations on the German song , "So
Viol Stern am lllmmel Stehn , " was delight
fully interpreted , by Miss Suslo Brady and
Mlsa Mildred bomux , who showed line Im
provement slnca last heard In a pupils' re
cital. Both showed conscientious practice ,
and the result was highly gratifying to them-
Eelves as well as to their teacher. MUa
Susie Brady followed with one of Pader-
ewikl'a graceful and muslclanly compositions ,
Iho "Minuet a I'Ar.tlque. " which she Inter
preted In most delightful style. In fact ,
It was one of the geinii of the evening , the
young lady being thoroughly at homo with
her Instrument. A duo came * next , an Im
promptu Dn A theme trout Schumann' * "Man
fred1 Interpreted by Mlsa F.tta Orelghton
and Miss Edith Her , both promising pupils
of the niadamo's , and they played with the
taste nnd discrimination which Invariably
marks the performance * of their Instructress.
Mrs. L , L , Thomas played the A flat Im
promptu of Chopin , taking the same tempo
as Mme. Mucntcfcrlng did when she played
the same number nt the Woman's club a
week ago. Technically , It Is a most dim-
cult composition , but Mrs. Thomas was quite
equal to tha demands and deserved thepralso
she received. Moskowskl'a wnltz In A flat ,
for two pianos , with Mme. Mucntcfcrlng
and Mrs. Thomas at the first , Mr. . Buchanan
and Mrs. Llndsey nt the second , gave the
audience n tasta of fine chamber music , tlio
harmony of the Instruments and the care
ful execution being features of the perform
ance most remarked , Mr. Adelmann fol
lowed with a violin solo , but was com
pelled to change his number from the "Sou
venir do Moscow" to the flrtt movement of
tlio I'uiiBt "Fantaslo" on account ot Illness ,
Mr. Adclmann came from a sick bed that
Mme. Muentcferlng might not be disap
pointed , and his consideration was the sub
ject ot many laudatory remarks. The ex
cellent program was brought to a close with
the piano concerto No. i ot Mendelssohn ,
played by Mme. Muontefcrlng , and accom
panied by n stringed quintet , In the first
movement the strings wcro noticeably uncer
tain , the tempo In several places being dif
ferent than that called for by the score , but
In the c-econd movement the strings were
decidedly strong , and finishing In a manner
that elicited the heartiest applause. As
for Mme. Mucnteferlng's playing , It was a
treat to listen to. There was an absence
of studied effort and no attempt at showy
effects , which mar the work of some artists.
Her touch Is sympathetic and true , and she
Invests all that she undertakes with a poetlo
chnrm which appeals Irresistibly to the
heart ns well as the mind. The number was
n decided credit to the talent of those par
ticipating , and the wish was very strong
that moro such works might be heard with
the accompaniment of strings.
A very attentive audience listened to the
second organ recital of.Mr. Tabcr at Trinity
cathedral last Monday evening. While all
the numbers were rendered satisfactorily ,
nevertheless the overture to "Rlenzl" by-
Wagner , ono of the grandest compositions
over written , was the event of the recital , and
was the cause of a great deal of favorable
comment. These recitals appear to educate
the public In what Is little understood organ

Room , to bo located at 613 South Twelfth

an early date. Friday and Saturday noons
an oyster dinner was served at 1102 Howard
street , at which a fnlr amount was realized ,
which will serve as the nucleus of a furnish
ing fund , but many things are needed nnd
it Is hoped all the friends of this work will
lend their aid In some way. The following
articles are especially needed and anything

gladly received : Several easy chairs , largo
and small ; two or three dozen common chairs ,
folding ones preferred ; half a dozen lamps ;
cups , saucers , platej nnd spoons , five dozen

tribute any of these things , word to that
effect may be left at the Y. W. C. A.
rooms for the next few days. The rooms will
bo opened just as soon as enough furniture
has been secured , so It U hoped the response
to this appeal will be as prompt as It will
surely bo generous. The plan of the "Rest"
la similar to that of the one In the Bee
building , with which nearly every one Is
familiar. The reading room will bo open
every evening and the privileges of the house

LON'DON , Nov. 10. The proiluctlon of
11 addon Chambers * "Jolin o' Dreams" nt tlio
llnyinnrkct on Thursday last was the event
of tlio autumn ceasori. Wlillo the new play
was received with every mark of approval
by a critical audience , tills was due more
to tlio splendid acting and staging1 than to
the merits of tlio play Itself. With Us re
claimed courtesan , whose mother was a cour
tesan before her , as tlio heroine , and an
opium-eating poet as tlio hero , tlio perform
ance was not altogether pleasant , Inspite
ot tlio art of Mrs. Patrick Campbell and Mr.
Beerbolnn Tree. "John o' Dreams" Is the sobriquet -
briquet ot one Harold \Vlnii , a young1 poet
and dreamer , who Is contrasted' In tlio play
to a realistic character played by Charles
Cartwrlght. Both men are In love with the
same woman , a , woman who has through
her worldly experience learned to measure
the length of love by the knowledge of Its
depth. To quote Mr. Tree's own words In a
letter to the Associated press , the yearning
for freedom from one who Is bound to the
fetters of the past gives opportunities for
Mrs. Patrick Campbell to reveal a complex
nature by the light of sympathy and ro
mantic feeling , Instead of cynicism and bit
terness , qualities which have so often char
acterized heroines of modern plays. "John
o' Dreams" was not written with the view
ot enforcing ; a moral , nor of proving any
thing , but rather of representing some hu
man beings as they are , with human passions ,
and therefore Inspiring human Interests. The
play derives much dramatic force from tlio
hero's desperate efforts , through the Influence
of a poetic love , to struggle against a hered
itary tendency to seek consolation In nar
cotics. I have only faintly foreshadowed the
psychological trend of the play , and have
not attempted to describe the play. Perhaps
the Persian poet Haflz'a lines may tell more
than mine. They are the text of the play
and they run :
When I wnmlrreil In the paths of lover :
\ \ hen love clung to my garments 1 lost
my friends.
Tlio Times In Us critique of the play
draws attention to tlio rapid progress of the
passion drama and the freedom with which
tha fcmme perdue and her Interests are now
discussed on the English stage.
BKKECT OF CLOSING TUB EMPIRE.
The adverse decision In the case of the
Empire music hall Is still a topic of excited
discussion all over town. The directors arc
chagrined that their appeal to the courts
from the decision of tlio county council not
to grant tlio Empire a liquor license unless
the promenade was closed was dismissed ,
and are yet undecided as to what course of
action they will adopt. Mrs. Ormlston
Chant , the leader ot the war against the
Empire , Is naturally jubilant over the suc-
ccsstul fight she has made. She states that
she has been threatened with bombs , dyna
mite , stabbing , vitriol , shooting , etc. In the
streets she Is howled at and Is told In certain
shops where she Is known to take her trade
elsewhere. And In the meantime the people
who frequent tlio Empire have gone to other
tnuslo halls , which liuvo secured their licenses
with little or no trouble , as It was predicted
they could do , and the only practical good
done Is that other music hall managers arc
profiting at the cxpenre ot Mr. Edwards.
Mr. Alexander opens tlio St. James theater

Siegfried Wagner made his bow to the
London musical world at Queen's hall on
Tuesday last. His only success was In draw
ing a large audience , whose presence was due
to curiosity.
Ellen Terry appeared In Glasgow on Mon
day for the first time during Henry Irvlng's

Chicago's big spectacle , "Aladdin , Jr. , "
which has been running all summer at the
Chicago opera house , will bo presented at
Doyd's theater on Thursday , Krlday and Sat
urday. November 22 , 23 and 24. It Is said
that a train of nine cars will be required to
transport the scenery , costumes and tlio
company. But twelve of thp principal cities
In this country will be played during the
season , and Omaha Is on the list. When
Manager David Henderson first produced
"Aladdin , Jr. , " the first of last Juno , people
thought him foolish to spend so much
money on a stage 'production In these * hard
times. The performance represented an
actual outlay of about } 7f ,000. If was pretty
hard pulling through the great strikes of
July , but now the business Is all right , and
It looks as though Manager Henderson knew
what ho was about after all.
Lovers of country and country life will be
given an opportunity for enjoyment In the
production of "The County Fair , " which oc
curs at Uoyd's theater on Thursday and Fri
day evenings of next week , with matinee
Saturday.
This phenomenal play , after Its four years'
run In New York and ono year In Boston ,
will be transferred to this city , with all Its
wealth ot beautiful scenery , stage equip
ments and mechanical effects. The abund
ance of healthy humor which pervades the
piece makes It all the brighter by contrast
with Its occasional touches of pathos. The
characters are drawn from living models ,
with little exaggerations or caricature to
distort them. The company this season Is

WASHINGTON , Nov. 10. Ex-Secretary ot
State Foster was the only unofficial guest
at the memorial services to the late czar at
the Russian legation hero yesterday , the
honor being accorded to him because lie had
personally known Alexander III. , having met
him often whllo serving as United Slntoj
minister to Russia In 18S1-L' . It w.is nt that
time that Alexander II. was assassinated ,
and General Foster witnessed the exciting
scenes on that occasion and the subsequent
pomp nnd ceremony with which tlio now caar
asiumed power. As the representative of this
country. General Foster took part In the
funeral rites of the dead czar nnd the festivi
ties Incident to the accession of the now
ruler. On these and Inter occasions G'Jieral
Foster met Alexander III. , and he frcc. < J'nly (
alluded to his friendship and admiration for
America. Nicholas , the present czar , was
then a boy of 13 , nnd being the second sou
was not regarded ns the heir , although the
fatal Illness of his older brother afterwords
led the latter to renounce his Inheritance.
General Foster says the feeling of great
friendship expressed by Alexander Is shared
throughout Russia from the highest down
to the humblest peasant.o .

almost unprecedented action was his inability
to cope with the difficulties that beset him.
H Is expected that Archbishop Chappollo of
Santa Fo will be named as administrator ot
the affairs of the diocese pending the se
lection of a successor to Bishop Matz. It
Is rumored In Roman Catholic circles that
Denver will probably be raised to an arch

About Croup.
Croup Is n terror to young mothers. To post
them concerning the first symptoms nnd treat
ment is the object of this Item. The first
Indication of croup Is hoarseness. In a chilli
who Is subject to croup it may be taken
as a sure sign of the approach of an attack.
Following this hoarseness Is a peculiar rough
cough. If Chamberlain's cough remedy Is
given ns soon ns the child becomes hoarse , or
even nfter the rough cough has appeared It
will prevent the attack. It has never been
known to fall.
