I AMUSEMENTS.
The Ilee Is enabled to prciient on Idea of
what the amusement-loving public of Omaba
can expect during the coming season , which
follows right on with the present engage-
mcnt nt the IJojil and opens at the Crelghlandl
ton September 11 with the reorganized
Woodward Stoclc company. The latter was
elaborated upon last Sunday , but the lloyd's
attractions have heretofore been an un-
Jtnown quantity , except that the manageIs
rocnt had stated they had booked a strong
lot of attractions. In view of the despotic
nway of the theatrical trust , which controls
the greater portion of tbo good tilings
theatrical , there wcro strong doubts regardMort
Ing the matter. A glance down the list will
reveal the fact that most of the best atfor
tractions which will leave New York and
the big eastern cities arc In the list. Some
of the old favorites will not make a tour
nt all , except of a few of the leading eastern
cttlea , unless business there should prove
disappointing.
Most If not nil of the old favorites who
will visit this city will bavo new plays , Nut
ns they have not yet been presented anyMr.
where It Is Impossible to gain an Idea as to
their valuo. Ono thing that can bo conLad
mended Is the fact that about o\ery variety
of tastxs will find something to Us liking
Hurlng the season. While tbo comedy clecom
ment Is still dominant , It Is not BO much
no as In former joara nud tbo spectacular
Is also much less prominent. Minstrelsy Is
represented by three companies of old favorOrel
lies , though the changes of the season make
on entirely different combination than In
post jcarB. Primrose , West and Wilson ,
who hnvo been In the same company for
years , nro each out with ft company of their
own.
In the drama , of old and tried favorites
there will bo an opportunity to hear Nnt
Goodwin , Ada Ucban , whoso company this
year la reputed to bo exceptionally strong ;
Sol Smith Russell , whose quiet humor Is a
joy forever ; "Shore Acres , " "My Friend
From India , " whoso mirth-provoking quailaldr
tics nro unexcelled , Julia Marlowe , who
needs neither praise nor Introduction ;
Dlgby Hell of pleasant memory In his quaint
and delightful "Hoosler Doctor ; " "Under
the lied Robe , " Clay Clement , C. B. Hanand
ford and Herbert Kclccy and Efflo Shannon ,
E. II , Sothern and jolly May Irwln.
In the musical line the winter's entertainBCOI
ment will bo exceptionally strong , with six
ntrong opera companies , Sousa's band and
Melba In concert.

The last week has offered some variation
from the usual nummer program for. In ad
dition to the usual places , the Boyd has
ngaln been opened , the Dorothy Morton
Opera company presenting "Glroflo Glrofla"
during the entire week. It would bo dim-
cult to Imagine more distressing weather for
nn Indoor performance than the opening
night , and some which followed has been
scarcely less unpleasant. A week's run of one
bill is a little long , and doubtless a mld-
; waek change of program would bavo been
Acceptable , as well as remunerative , though [
n good business has been
done. So far ns
HID work of the company Is concerned , there
Is Httlo to mid to what
was said of the
opening performance e-tcopt that the work :
of the chorus has
shown Improvement , aa
the new members had the benefit of re
hearsals. Outside of that no complaint
could bo tnndo with the Initial perform
ance.
The Woodward Stock company has dur
ing the last week scared another success
with "Trilby , " nothing which It has pre-
entcd except possibly "Faust , " having !
proved more popular. "Trilby" was u sud
den craze which swept over the country
Jlko the influenza nnd almost everyone was
rooro or less violently afflicted , but It was
generally supposed that the epidemic would
run Its course and die out. Whatever maybe
bo the case elsewhere Omaha appears to
Iiavo had a rclupso and the case assumed
v Its most acute form. Aside from the popti-
larlty of ths play itself the excellent work
of the company has contributed materially
to the result.
The Trocadoro has enjoyed n good week's
business with a bill , though not bad by any
means , yet hardly up to past standards.
The trouble , except with one net , which
was displaced and a better ono substituted ,
was not so much that the acts were not
, good , but that some of them were not
taking features oven though they were well
done.
The familiar face of D. W. Hayncs , for
merly manager of the Boyd Is now to orbe
Been around the theater lobbies once in
a while. Mr. Hayncs Is spending a portion
of hU summer vacation In the city. Ho ex
pects to remain about a week longer , when
lie will return to Now York. 'Mr. ' Hayncs :
IB now manager for Francis Wilson , whoso
"Halt a King" of two seasons ago Is
still most pleasantly remembered In
Omaha. Mr. Wilsona \ now re-
liearslug a new opera and will
open his season In New York about the mid
dle of next month. Unfortunately Omaha
will not have the pleasure of hearing him
as nt the conclusion of his Now York engagement
gagement ho goes to London for the remainder
mainder of the season , Mr. Hayncs ac
companying him.
Wilson Enos of the Crelghton stock com
pany will take a vacation this week , which
lie will spend out on the Paxton ranch ,
near Hcrshoy shooting chickens. Mr. En'og
Is a tireless worker and has richly earned
the short rest and hero's hoping ho will
V Ibavo a good time and come back refreshed.
Announcement * .
The Dorothy Morton Opera company will
the second week of Its engagement at
oyd's theater this evening In the familiar
ut none the less welcome , "Fra Dlavolo. "
Jvory one knows this opera , which as the
leasons roll br seems to lose none of Its
'barm ' , end In the hands of Miss Morton's
apablo company a delightful Interpreta
tion of Auber'i work may bo looked for.
[ The rauslo 1s what IB tritely known i as
U'catchy. " and Is extremely tuneful. The
fSlbrctto'ls brlgut and the story Interesting
Cfl etralghtforwardly told. "Fra Dlavolo. "
, o devil's brother ) la a , bandit , but like
Robin ! : Hood he robs the rich only to scatter
gold among the poor , In in attempt to rob
, Lord and Lady Allcasb , who arc stopping at
a country Inn , he compromises Zcrllna , the
landlord's daughter , a virtuous girl , who Is
betrothed to a joung soldier who Is huntIng -
Ing the daring robber. This movement car-
rlcfl the opera , though there Is a sub plot
unwith its love tale. In the end Fra Diavolo
Is betrajcd and killed by a carbineer as ho
a about to escape his pursuers , Zerllna U
vindicated nnd the story closea agreeably
for nil Uio characters. It Is In the bed
room ocene In the second act that Miss
Morton ns Zcrllna disrobes for the night.
She Is said to have nn entirely new Idea
for the t scene , presenting It differently from
all the I other prlma donnas who have at
tempted It. If she docs It with the original
Ity and delicacy with which she Interpreted
her drinking scene In "Glroflo airofla , " she
will certainly bo entitled to the distinction
of a prlma donna who not only looks well
and sings well , but who can act with finish
and unction , a rare combination nowadays.
Mr. Wllke will bo the Fra Dlavolo , Mlsa
Hell and 'Miss ' Cornish will alternate ns
Lady ; Allcash , Mr. Webb will bo Lord All-
cash , Mr. Stephens , Lorenzo , Zerllna's
sweetheart , and Mr. Lodge will have the
comedy - part of Beppo , one of Fra Dlavolo's
henchmen.
The Woodward Stock company at the
Crelghton will present this week Mr. Gil-
lott's comedv-drama , "Esmeraldo. " Mr. Gilleat
lett dramatized this play from Mrs. Hod-
son Burnett's novel of the same name. It
tolls n beautiful story of life In North
Carolina , the comedy Is bright nnd spark
ling , the story pure and wholesome. It
tell ! of an old farmer , Mr. Rogers , who
strikes oil on his farm and becomes sud
denly rich. His wife , who Is of a very proud
family , at once dominates everything nnd
proceeds to llvo In high style and to plan
a splendid match for her daughter , Esmer-
aldr , who has a lover in North Carolina
who has built a little home for her just as
the Rogers become wealthy nud the little
house stands empty. Mrs. Rogers , the
woman of the world , Is a strong character
and will bo played by Miss Berkley , in
mer
and
BCOI
suited , and a finished production Is prom
Iset Next week will open with William
Haworth's play , "FcrnclIfT. "
All women should hear Mrs. Griffith's
stercoptlcon ' lectures Wednesday and Frl'n'

speaker , having been for years national or-
ganlzer of the W. II. M. S. and more recently -
cently president of the Woman's Christian
Temperance union and vlco president of the
Federation of Women's Clubs for the Tls- )
trict of Columbia , when her homo was in

by the entlro company and a chorus of
fifteen beautiful women.
The ] bill at the Trocadero , beginning with
today's matinee , and continuing throughout
the week with the usual Wednesday and
Saturday , matinees , is ono of extraordinary
individual strength , Introducing more spe-
clal features than has been on any pre
ceding bill. The Trocadero management Is ,
ever up to the times and the delightful
vaudeville menus that have thus far been
offered bavo established a thorough and
everlasting Impression from the Omaha
theater goers that It Is one of the most
refined nnd classical vaudeville theaters In
the country. The roster is headed by those
clever travcst stars Messrs. Horwltz and
Bovvers , especially re-engaged for this week >
to present their latest and most successful
travesty upon "Tho Heart of Maryland , "
Mr. Horwltz as Maryland Leslie Carter and
Mr. Bowers as Allen Kendrlck Kelcey. Mr.
Horwltz will bo seen also In his famous Im

notable utellar lights of the stage. A par
ticular feature of the bill will be Nlllsson's

scenery and calcium and electric effects. :
Manager Cole perfected arrangements with
Prof. Nlllsson to stop In Omaha on his re
turn cast , where this troup Is to associate
themselves with one of the largest extrava
ganzas on the road. Shornort and Gover-

descriptive vocalist , Lozellc , sensational

and many novel effects enhance the beauty
of this particular act. The usual or-
chrstral concerts will still remain ono ref
tbo delightful events of the week and
strangers visiting the city cannot find nda
moro popular nnd refilled theater to attend.
the Midway.
The Midway seems to have been inspired
with now life during the last week. This
Is Indicative of increased patronage , which
to the practical showman invariably moans
an Increase of attractions. Changes in
the personnel weeding out tbo weak and
adding stronger features to please the pub
lic , there are quite a number of new
"temples of art and amusement" now being
placed upon the Midway , which to the wise '
denotes Increased prosperity , expected mul
titudes and fun for the boys. The Midway
of the tranomlsslsslppl Is acknowledged to
bo In point of fine buildings , fine attrac
tions , good attendance and financial suc
cess second to no exposition ever held ucin
the country but the World's fair.
Of nil the attractions over placed upon
a Midway , Darkness and Dawn Is proving
the real sensation. Open only ten days ,
Its receipts are already ranking at the top ,
the attendance averaging over 1,000 per
day nnd the majority of whom are women.
From the Cabaret do la Mort on to Paradise ,
weird and startling surprises meet one i at
each nook and crook , the climax being the
last , the beautiful Blue Grotto theater.
Every detail of the whole show Is refined
and beautiful and is being patronized by
the best people of Omaha ,
The New Casino theater on the East Mid
way , now under the ownership of Klrcboff
& Co , with Chris Butler as manager , Is
regarded ns ono of the most popular resorts
on the grounds for families nnd visitors.
Thousands geek the shelter of the Casino
as a haven of rest where they can , while
lunching , listen to a fine orchestra , with
songs , dances , acrobatic , jugglery and light
comedy performances without extra cost :
The Casino , under the new management
and now ownership , has been undergoing
many and costly changed. The entire front
baa been remodeled , tbo handsome "cafe"
on the left of tho'main entrance has been
enlarged to meet with the demands , and ; la
the urldo of the Midway. The lobby on
the right of the main cntrnnce has been
greatly Improved and the orchestra roflttrd
so that It Is now a pleasure to vlnlt the
Casino , where you not only have good
music , good entertainment , good service ,
courteous treatment , but a feeling of wel
come at home and nt case. The boards at
the Ca lno this week will bo occupied by
the Flemtne sisters , Carter and Fuller , Ann-
strong and O'Noil , the Monumental quartet ,
James T. Kelly nnd several other artists
who will arrive from Chicago this evening.
carTfi Chinese village nnd theater on the
West Midway continues to attract thou
sands dally. The Shanghai female actresses
with the email feet are a new feature nt
Chinese theaters In this country. This Is
tbo first troupe of them which ever left tbo
celestial empire. Women nnd children vis
itors nro especially Interested In this fea
ture of the show. The great Chlng Llns
Too , the king of all magicians , continues to
mystify every ono with his wonderful feats
of magic and his sons In their pinto spin
ning and acrobatic performances are a
strong drawing card.
The exposition Is becoming the Mecca
sunnier bridal parties. Such parties
never fall to visit the Streets of Cairo and
see the Mohammedan wedding procession
j" " ! ceremony. Yesterday a rural couple
from Arkansas with clasped hands and
wondering stare attempted to wander
through the maze of color , gaiety and nolso
In the big oriental show. They found great
difficulty in staring abstractedly at things
and at the same time dodging the surging
camels nnd the .scurrying donkeys. When
Dockman , the terrific bag puncher , was tn
the midst of polishing off the face of his
leather foe , a donkey with a fat man aboard
dashed through the crowd and happened to
glide between the lanky groom and his
pudgy bride , who were united by tightly
clasped hands , which they , through fear ,
held the tighter. The entire cavalcade
brldo , groom , donkey , fat man and donkey
boy dashed up the street , the brldo from ono
Bldo of the donkey shouting for her spouse
not to let go her hand and the groom upon
the other sldo obeying with all tbo gallantry
of his nature , while the fat man said all
kinds of things that would not look well In
print and the crowd nearly went Into gleeful
hysterics.
Trilby Temple Is just now ono of the most
popular places of amusement on the grounds
and Is dally growing In favor. Since
"Trilby" made her Initial bow to the people
hero she hai been visited by thousands of
dcrful in art and one only has to watch the
pleased expression on the faces of people
coming out of the exhibition to tell how
much It Is appreciated. Every one Is loud
'n' their praises of this great masterpiece and
declare they have never scon its equal. The
beautiful pose , the realistic flesh color , the
wonderful ; relief nnd remarkable modeling
make an Impression never to bo forgotten.
It has been alluded to by the eastern papers
as "a living , breathing example of art. " No
one should miss seeing "Trilby. "
Have you visited the Llbby Glass Blow
ers on the West Midway ? Now wo call
ourselves class blowers because wo are not
exactly _ Americana , but of Irish , French and
English descent , but decent enough to do
our own blowing. Come out and ECO us
blow. The glass dress will be on exhibi
tion this week , a finer dress than the one
at tbo World's fair.
Visitors to the Streets of All Nations are
pouring In In torrents and satisfaction Is
displayed on every face nfter they leave
the "Streets , " nnd not to say much , visitors
would repeatedly express their erlef nn
being compelled to leave the Streets nnd go '
home , but would still promise to come back
the next day. A number of prominent
Sioux City people visited the Streets of All
Nations yesterday , among whom was the
mayor , and nil were extremely delighted
with the striking feature of the Streets , the
performance after the parade nnd In a spe
cial manner they were Indescribably pleased
with the performance In the theater , the
artistic movements of the dancing girls , the
capacity . of La Belle Rosa In swinging the
chair between her teeth , the ability of La
Belle Fatlma , the dark-eyed beauty , In
balancing a bottle on her head while
dancing , rolling nnd BO on , nnd with the
majesUc appearance of La Belle Fatlna ,
To such a height has Hagcnback'p reached
on the high wave of prosperity at the Omaha
exposition , In point of dally attendance , that
letters from teachers and parents coming
to the exposition on special excursions are
being constantly received by Mr. Frank C.
Bostock , the manager , In order that they
may secure seats for the children. As an
educational source of entertainment It Is
beyond all question tbo most pleasing and
of the greatest benefit to the young of all
ages. It Is good , healthy instruction ; It Is
the greatest aggregated object lesson In the
teaching of natural history In the entire
world and from the entlro world.
The German Village Is still presenting a
flno vaudeville performance , with the Klrch-
ncr lady orchestra ; twenty-four acts make
up a bill that Is well worth sitting through ,
while the other features of this very popu
lar resort are kept quite up to the high
standard long ago set.
Tbo Monster Whale still continues to be
the sensation of the East Midway. It is a
great curiosity and well entitled to the
liberal patronage It Is receiving.
The Japanese Tea Garden Is receiving vis
itors by the scores. The Curio Store In
the Garden is of great Interest to our
people.
Tbo "Fall of Babylon" Is proving one of
the greatest attractions on the West Midway.
It Is ono of the grandest reproductions ever
exhibited at any exposition , and worthy the
great attention now given It at the Trans-
mlsslsslppl. A visit to this wonderful paint
ing will well repay anyone.
Ono of the most attractive features on the
West Midway Is the costly reproduction by
Roltalr of the destruction of the Maine. The
Maine Is reproduced In two forms at the ex
position In one by a handsome model by the
government In the Government building , and
again in Its destruction by Roltalr by the
first diorama In water ever produced , giv
ing perfectly all the natural effects of the
morning waters , lights etc. It Is a most
wonderful reproduction , and drawing the
crowds.
The "chutes" was kept very busy during
the post week , ant ? will no doubt later on
have to make many changes to accommodate
the crowds.
At the South Africa Ostrich Farm on the
West Midway , there can be seen morning
and evening ono of the finest and largest
ostriches on the farm named after Admiral
rjowey being trained to drive In harness
for the purpose of working him In a fln >

Howard Paul baa compiled for the Horn
Journal some facts and figures regarding
the system of subvention in. France. Th
total amount given annually by the govern
ment Is $326,000. The Grand Opera receive
$160,000 , the Opera Comlquo $60,000 , th
Comedlo Francalse $40,000 and the Odeoi
$20,000. In addition the sum of $3SCOO 1
appropriated toward the maintenance of th
Conservatoire. After a thorough examlna
tlon of the system of state aided theaters
Mr. Paul reaches the conclusion that It Is
ineffective. The directors nt the opera find
It hard to make both ends meet and wore
H not for the foreign visitors the other
subventloned houses would seldom prosper.
