THE OMATTA DAILY REE : SUNDAY , JAXUAltY 21 , 1807. I AMUSEMENTS. f Ono In Rorr.cwhnt at a loss to account for tlm present crusndo against the big theater 1ml which has broken out of Into with re- nowcd ntv1 qu'to ' unprecedented violence all over Ui3 country and found expression In dratitlo legislation by variant ) law-making liodlcs. Hero In Omaha -women - pretty gen erally rcrcovo their hnta at the play ; the well bred ortw almost universally do , nnd very many of the others will comply with V a courteous request. So that this particular rest , nt present at least , la less conspicu ously active than several others which find tholr mont frequent expression at the theater. The late-comer wo have al- wayg with us , with unabated capacity for disturbing whole rows of people In Ret ting to the distant neat ; and the headlong Idiot who starts to Icavo before the per formance Is over. These two nuisances call for the utmost severity which human In genuity can devise , and HO do these omnis cient beings who not only know what Is going to happen next , but Insist upon telling their companion. They deserve anything which mny befall them crucifixion , or "something with boiling oil In It. " And only a llttlo less obnoxious are the men , and women too , who go out between acts , and the desultory chatterer who comes to the theater and pays largo sums for scats simply to have a chance for uninterrupted conversa tion , A caao of this laat-namcd kind happened nt ono of the local houses not no very long ago , which wag made especially noteworthy because the heedless par ticipants In the disturbance were repri manded by the star from the ntago during tbo performance , a thing which seldom happens , not because a reprimand Is not often deserved , but for lack of a man of s/ufflclcnt nerve to administer It. On this occasion a party of young people occupied ono of tlio proscenium boxes , which brought them eo near to the atago that a whisper from thorn was as plainly audlblo to the actors as the actors' whisper might be to the slttero In the box. They were happy and at caao with the world , and as time passed they forgot moro and more that their growing hilarity might annoy others who had como to lltton to the very pretty play and not , like them , to carry on a conversation which might have been prosecuted to better ad vantage on the outride. They were startled therefore , by a sudden awful pause In the performance , and by a direct address by the star himself , who said. In effect : "Ladies , I Bhall have to suspend my entertainment till you get through yours. " This put an Immediate stop to the dis turbance , and the young women gave their undivided attention for the remainder of the afternoon to the play , which. If It were not quite as Imposing as the Interrupted con versation , nt H-ast did not detain them Inter h than & o't k , when they probably had tlmo to finish what they had to say. They were perhaps eomowhat put out by the severity of the punishment , and doubtless another and less conspicuous method of calling their at tention to their faults would have been equally effective. Hut on general principles evert they themselves will ndmlt that they wcro wrong and the star was right. Co inline ICvrnlH. The Hopltlna Transoceanic Star Specialty company will open a four night's engage ment at the Crclghton with a popular-priced matinee today , presenting n vaudeville per formance which. It Is promised , will bo In ovcry way equal to tlic entertainment pro vided by this organization during former seasons. The company Includes Ford and Francis , whoso operatic sketch was ono of thu features of last year's performance ; Sharp and Flatt , musical comedians , pre senting their latest novelty.

A Wednesday matlneo will bo given nt popular prices. An event will undoubtedly be made by theater-goers of the magician Bancroft's first appcaranco In this city tomorrow ( Monday ) night at Iloyd's. This remarkable performer comes here heralded with a repu tation that has been made world-wide. His extremely handsome appearance , his fascin ating manner as an entertainer and his skill and Ingenuity as a magician and sleight of hand manipulator have made him a fa vorite magician and ono of the most talkcd- of men now appearing before the public , which Is perhaps all the moro pleasing ns ho Is the only magician of prominence of American birth. His recent visit to India and his discoveries of Hindoo magic there ns announced have attracted attention to him In foreign countries. The production" which ho will present hero consists of elab orate stage settings , magnificent scenery and a spectacular exhibit of occultism upon a scale said to have been never beforn at tempted In the history of magic. The cost of the production h quoted at over $100,000 and his company numbers twenty-two people ple , it requires two baggage cars to trans port his scenery. All of his feats an ; de scribed as novel and unique and of his own devising His entertainment Is promised to bo different from any other presentation of mystery over seen here. It Is divided Into four divisions depicting "The Wizard's I'alaco of Fable , " "The Magnlllcrnt Orient , " "Tlio Klowcry Kingdom" and "Midnight Mysteries Among the Yogi , " Ills Inexhausti ble repertory of facts causes constant be wilderment , amusement and merriment. Kor two nights , commencing Thursday , January 2S , will bo presented nt the CrrlRhton "A Illack Sheep. " u production of Cliurlm Hoyt's. It Introduces In nn almost stellar capacity , n rollicking.

Next to him In favor comes William IJovcro , whoso portrayal of n Jolly Arizona editor , ready for anything from heading a "lynching boo" to making love , and at homo with a gun and "red Ink , " Is a novel and quaint character. Jeanette St. Henry , who playa the "Queen of Hurlcsquo , " will bo seen hero for the first tlmo In n Hoyt comedy. U Is claimed that xho Is entitled to rank with the stage beauties. It Is ono of Mr. Hoyt's happy faculties to secure pretty girls In his companies , nnd It Is nald "A niaclt Sheep" Is no exception. Since last season Mr. Hoyt has Improved "A Illack Sheep" by nddlng three new characters. The music Is all now , and the specialty features that lift has Introduced are said to bo of a strictly novel character. Since last seen here "A Illack Sheep" has completed nn enormously successful run In Now York City of ono hun dred and fifty nights at Hoyt's theater. Scats will bo placed on sale tomorrow morning , The last two performances of "Hendrlck Hudson , Jr. , " by the Corlnno Rxtravaganza company , will bo given at Hoyd's today , the matlneo at 2:30 : and In the evening nt 8:15. : The pretty little star , surrounded by a fine company of comedians and a largo chorus of well favored women , with serviceable voices , offers an entertainment that has been found very pleasing. The demand for seats for thcso performances has been largo , and no doubt the popular Corlnno will delight two largo houses today. Commencing Tuesday night , January 2f. , at Hoyd's Opera house , Marie Wellcslcy's players will open for a seven-night engage ment at popular prices. The company Is horaldctl by sonic glowing press notices ob tained In .tho larger cities of Iowa and Illl- nolo , and has been on the road for an un broken period of ninety-eight weeks , having played the summer stock theaters for two years past. Having been assoclatc-d together for BO long , tlie members of the company are able to present a large number of plays. They also carry a number of clever flpeclalty people. Miss Wclltsloy , the star of the company , made her first appearance on the stage In Ford's stock company. She afterward ap- l > cared as BIJIy I'lpor In "Tho Danltcs. " She has played with Louis Morrison , Mary An derson. Charles Fechter , Theodore Hamilton , Charles Theme nnd other well known loaders of the profession. She la supported by an excellent company and has become a competent actress by sheer hard work and association with some of the most popu lar stars In the country. Richard Obee , her leading man , also received much pralso for his clever acting and fine stage presence. During the present reason the Crclghton management , with characteristic enterprise , ha.i offered the patrons of amusements a selection of the year's greatest succesres. The receptions accorded these productions In Omaha has been but lukewarm at best , evincing an apparent Indifference as to the eallbri- the attraction presented. Ow ing to tlio lack of p&tronago extended hlgli priced productions , Messrs. 1'axton & Hur- goss have decided to present for a limited engagement of two weeks a strictly low priced attraction , having secured the Wood ward Theater company for that period , com- nu.iKing with a matinee Sunday , January .11 , appearing nightly , with the exception ol Monday , February 1 , when Mrne. Nordlca will appear. Thomas W. Kcene , the eminent tragedian lies this season as rupport and managei Charles H. Hunford. Ho Is young , hand seine and robust. Ho had the best kliu of schooling , having played leading parts with Ilooth , Uarrott , Fanny Uavcnport Modjcska and other stars and has hlmsel been a star.

Sousa's men arc noted for their Individ ual excellence. Their connection with hi : band Is a guarantee of their quality.

There Is no reason to fear fet the excellence of the production , for some of the moat talented singers In this ell ) are In the cast , and nil hnvo been In re- honrsal for tome three month * . Fur mcir than a week rehearsals have hrcn held dalb nnd ovury evening under the direction o- Conductor Murphy of the Columbian tlu-atrr Chicago.

Ho may not bo as gentle a * n lamb , but lambs are seldom stngo managers , The chorus will number about seventy singers , and an orchestra of twenty-five , with Hans Albert as concert master , will assist. The whole Is under the direction of Mr. Torrcns , and the outlook Is In every way favorable to n performance that will be n great credit to him and to nil who arc laboring with him.

He In closed a program of n performance given by "Tho Student Singers' Club. " of which he Is n member , given In the Fllharmonlca Sain December 30. The program consisted of songs and a work by Saint Sacns entitled "Oratorio do Noel , " for chorus and aololsts. The accompaniments w ro for piano , organ and harp.

Sousa has recently been lu Europe scoring success after success , and Is sure of a hearty wcl- como In Omaha. Miss Leonora Jackson , a young American vlollnUt , who made a successful debut In Berlin recently under Joachim , appeared there December 15 , by special summons nt a court dramatic < xnd mu.tlcal charity en tertainment , given at the New Royal opera house before the empress , the court , the ministers of atate , nnd was honored by re ceiving spcclil congratulations from her majesty the empress. The theaters of this city. In view of the financial dcprteslon that prevails hero , have been compelled to reduce expenses , and In view of that fact they have decided to reduce - duce the personnel of their orcheatraa. I is consequence of this condition of affairs the orchrstra In Boyd'fl theater has been reduced to four men , an-d the Crclghton theater con templates n reduction to seven men. The welfare of orchestral music depends very largely upon the patronage of the thcatera , as by It , and by It only , do the best musi cians earn a sufficient livelihood to make It worth their wbllo to live In this city. The musical progress of the elty , In comparison with other cities , depends very largely upon the orchestral ensemble which can be ob tained h rc , and the theaters are the sole regular employers of orchestral playern. The loss of th"so musicians would Impoverish the musical resources of the city and re duce the chances of Its future development. In view of the Transmlrsstaslnpl Exposition and the present Interest In orchestral music It Is to bo hoped that the theaters nnd tbn public will do all In their power to keep the musicians hero and to nfford thorn remunera tive employment.

TO MI OVT'OK anil Iiirlili-iilN Cimcprnlnj ; Itriu'll nml Ilnr. I had been dc/wn In the mountainous re gions of Tennessee for my health and made a great many pleasant acquaintances among the strange people of that section. Nothing of an exciting nature occurred until the earlier part cf October , when one of the men of whom I had seen a good deal was s.rro3ted on the charge of Edllng bottles of moonshine whisky at a fair , says a Detroit Free Press writer. Tlic-ro Kcmcd no chance of clearing him but a bright young lawyer undertook Ills dc- fcni'3 ' nnd handled It like a veteran. The care on Mis rar' cf the go/ctnn o t was ma 'o A bottlenf whisky that the accused had sold wan offered In evidence , and a dozen wit nesses .lucre that they had seen him dU- pojlivs of like bottles. The prisoner was not placed upon the stand nnd no one was called to testify In his behalf. I grc-w Indignant nt this apparent bctrnjol of his eaiifo , and ventured to whis per to the young attorney that ho should at least make n showing. But ho knew his busincas. Solemnly addressing the court , he- ; ald : "Your honor , there has not been ono word of proof offered , aside from urnubstantl.il I'tatomentB. that the fb.sk hero In evidence oontalnr whisky , or that there was whisky In any of the bottles my client Is said to have disposed of. " "The Jury can take It with them and dp- tcrmlno for themselves , " curtly Interrupted the Judge. "That la entirely satisfactory , " your honor. Though ecnt In time nml again , the Jury found It Impossible to agree , nnd waa finally d'-nmhned. "What was the matter ? " I ventured to ask of the foreman after It was all over. "Wall , stranger , you noticed that pint bottle - tlo WH took In ? " "Yov. you were to find iml what It con tained. " "So th' Ji'dgp said. Jake Heaver warllt' runt ono to make tn' teat , nun , When he had ter stop tor talio breath there warn't n dogxono drop lot' .

" Thn atory got out and the case -ftna never revived. Nearly 300 yeara ago Alexander Pope wrote : Tin' hungry Juilsc-H noon tbo Hontoncn dm And wretricn ! hang thnt jurymen may dine , ThU anrlrnt couplet has received a great Illtititratlou In Ilcston In tlip cnic of Thomas M. C. Dram , tried for the murder of Captain Charles Nanh of the bark Herbert Fuller. According to the Boston Hrrald , U 1ms been stated , nnd probably not without truth , that the Jurors agreed to convict because Ihoy were hungry , Whllo certain members of this famous twelve deny such to be the fact , It U nevertheless true that all of the doren wpro hungry , nnd nil dealrod to get nwny from their tedious and monotonouj duty. Olllcer s of the court otato that the failure to order n dinner 'or the twelve -arguing men WM nn oversight , and was altogether unin tentional on tlio part of tlio Interested par ties ; yrt It Is certain that the rumor which circulated nnd gained much credence throughout the Jury room thnt there was nothing moro to cat until a verdict was nr- rlvcd at hastened the decision of some of the doubtful ones. The last of the twelve to hold out for n disagreement remarked as ho cnst his last ballot for conviction. "May God forglvo mo nnd have mercy on my soul If I havp done wrong. " The verdict came ns n , surprise to almost everybody , the gen- cal opinion of those who had read the evi dence being that the Jury would either ac quit or disagree. It was one of the maxims of Lord Stowcll that "a dinner lubricates business , " and Lord Byron tells us : All human history attest * That happiness for man the 'hungry sin ner Slneo UVP ate apples , much depends on dinner. _ _ OOSS1P AlltMJT XOTKI !

" A writer In Pearson's Weekly repeats a story concerning the narrow escape the world had from never knowing n Sir Walter Scott. The legend Is that , when n tiny baby , Scott was left In charge ) of n maid ; but the girl's heart was In Edlnburg , whither she wonted to go to rejoin her lover. She was , however , compelled to stay and look after the Infant at Sandy Knowo , The girl regarded her charge as an obstacle to be removed and afterward confessed that sha carried young Scott up to the Cralgs ( under n strong temptation of the devil , ns she expressed It ) , fully Intending to cut his throat with hur and bury him under the moss. Considering the continued Increase of Cecil Rhodes' prominence , Ollvo Schrelncr's opin ion of him Is cf interest. She says that the South African dictator Is "Napoleon over again , but Napoleon In a financial , Indus trial and political world. IIo has all Na- polwm's greatness , not n llttlo of Napoleon's pettiness , and ho will fall some day , over whelmed , as was Napoleon , by the corruption of his own tools. What Napoleon did with steel Cecil docs with gold. Around him there lo a court of creatures who only live to min ister to his will , but who would turn nnd rend him tomorrow If he were tripped up by fate. As Napoleon thought Providence was always on the side cf the heavy battalions , so Cecil Is convinced there Is no God so omnip otent ns that of the full ptr c. " "Mrs. Ida A.

The first reporter of Francewna , according to the Revue do Paris , Louis XIII. Tht- National library possesses the manuscripts of thirty-six articles written by thnt king ; almost all an < accounts of his military oper ations. These articles were published In Iho Gazette do France. The "copy , " how ever , did not go directly to the printer. Louis XIII wrote abominable French , and ho had vague notions of orthography. Ilia articles were corrcctc-d and often rearranged by a secretory named Lucas , who copied them , . ending to Richelieu the now manuscript. Richelieu examined It In his turn , and often Introduced additional corrections. At the siege of Corbie the kins wrote a few lines eulogistic of the cardinal , but afterward crossed them out of his article , Richelieu wrote them In again , and so they appeared In the Gazette do France.
