bolng made and by Christmas time Manager
Burgess confidently expects his list to have
oil of last season's big eastern successes.
As will bo seen the above list presents a ]
few old plays seen here .before . , but the ma
jority of these are good ones worth seeing
a second timo.
The Crelghton-Orpheum theater will reopen -
open next Gunday , September 3. The house
bas been closed during itho few weeks of hot
wcathor and during this Interim the audi
torium has been thoroughly renovated and
decorated anew In delicate and beautiful col
ors. The patrons of this favorite place of
amusement will find much to admlro In the
now and artistic decorative -work which gives
to the auditorium a very attractive appear
ance and will prove a pleasant surprise.
The Crelgliton-Orpheum was opened to
the public on December 4 of last year and
at once sprang Into great favor with the
theater-going people of Omaha. A flrst-
olnss vaudeville house was a novelty and
Jt waa predicted by some of the wiseacres
that as soon as the novelty wore off the
patronage would correspondingly decrease.
But the wiseacres were wrong. The Or-
phoum may no longer bo a novelty , but It
continues to produce novelties of the high
est class and hence retains Its popularity.
The parent house Is the famous Orp'heum of
San Francisco. The president of the com
pany Is M. Meyorfleld of San Francisco and
the local manager Is "Joko" Ilosenthal ,
Who baa made a fine record In the handling
of IWs place of amusement. In the local
treasurer , Mr. William Byrne , ho has an
ample assistant. The head booking office
of the company Is In Chicago , In charge of
Mr. Mark Beck. The company also hna an
office In Now York , Mr. Robert Glrard being
In charge , with agents In the principal cities
of Europe always on the alert for the very
latest and best novelty attractions for the
Orpheum theaters In Chicago , Omaha ,
Denver , Salt Lake , Sacremento , Los Ange
lica and San Francisco. A strong bill is in
preparation for the reopening .week. It
bo announced In a day or two. t
Quito a piece of thoughtfulnesa on the
l > rt of Manager Burgess of Boyd's , Cole of
tit * Trocadero and ttoecnthal of the
Craichton-Orphouin theaters was Uio idea
of tflJegraphing to the First Nebraska regi
ment at Ban Francisco that when they ar
rived In Omaha and during their stay hero
the.tr uniforms would take the place of nd-
&li lon tickets and pass them through the
doors of any of their theaters. This bit of
eonoroslty tiho soldier boys will doubtless
not forget and it la almost certain that to
man they will take advantage of the offer ,
therefore , theater goora who attend any of
the play houses after next Tuesday may ex
pect to see them filled with blud-coated
&nd brass-buttoned soldier lads fresh from
the Philippines , who will doubtless bo as
much of an attraction as the play Itself.
* Comtiiff Eveiitn.
The Trocadoro Opera Company announces
for tts nttractlon thte week something quite
out of the ordinary In the way of a double
operatic bill for one price of admission.
A great many people do not care for the
classical operas whllo others educated In
music enjoy them. With a view of pleasing
both these classes of theater-goers , one
comlo and one grand opera are oTfered.
The comic opera will bo Gilbert & Sullivan's
first great success , "Pinafore. " "Cavallerla
Ilustlcana , " the other half of the bill , Is
n ono-not classical opera , and is perhaps
today as popular as any In the modern ope
ratic repertoire. It Is less ancient than
"Pinafore , " and was first produced an a
drama In Italy. Plotro iMaccagni , the com
poser of the opera , was from the old Italian
echool of operatlo writers , and "Cavallerla
Jtimtlcana" Is considered bis masterpiece.
The intermezzo of the opera Is today as
popular as any of the more classical com
positions and will glvo the new Tfocadero
Opera company a splendid opportunity to
Rhow its capabilities. The company baa
> baen strengthened materially by the en
gagement of Milton C. Smith as musical
director. Mr. Smith occupied a like po
sition with the famous Bostonlana for over
Jlvo years.
' 'Moths ' , " a dramatization of Oulda's novel
of that name , will lie presented at the
floya this afternoon and tonight and close
Trlday. ' The bill Is one of peculiar Interest ,
for it belongs to a class that hag always
been very Interesting to the play-going
public. It has not been seen In
Eczema.
Mr. H. T. Shobe , 2704 Lucas Ave. ,
Bt , Louis , Mo. , saya : "My daugh

her head and spread to her face.

of the novel bos made the story eo familiar
that many "will welcome an opportunity to
eeo a dramatic version.
The play ls ono of the most successful
of the many that have been made from
popular novels. U retains all the essential
features of the elaborated inork and at the
same time Includes the comedy and senti
mental clement and also the poetical atmosphere -
phoro with Tvhleh Oulda surrounded her
favorite heroine , Vera Herbert. This pure
flower , that blooms oa an exotic in a garden
of passion flowers , has received some of the
finest touches of the popular novelist , and
the s In go representation of the character
cannot fall to Interest the theater-goers
who will witness It. There arc , however ,
fiovoral other very strong characters In this
iplay of French and Russian life , the scenes
of which are dlvldod between Trouvlllo ,
Trance ; St. Petersburg , Russia , end Szanls-
lar , Poland. There Is a strong plot and yet
the play Is essentially ono of manners , as It
Is peopled by undemonstrative but calculat
ing personages.
The story of "Brown's In Town , " the at
traction at Boyd's theater next Saturday
night and for four nights following , -with
Sunday and Wednesday matinees , Is decid
edly complicated , and the complications arc
now. They come about through the efforts
of a young man to keep his nurrlago a se
cret from his father. In furtherance of his
plan ho and his forldo go to a country
villa , where the father arrives later and
where friends drop In , quite by accident of
course , and to the utter despair of Brown
and his wife. When the father arrives on
the scene ho Is told his eon Is visiting a
man by the name of Brown ; this naturally
compels the Introduction of Mrs. Brown
as well as her husband. Ono of the friends
dn Ignorance of the marriage Is persuaded
to play the part of Brown. Ho finds It
much to his liking , and proceeds to make
love to the lady In earnest , a proceeding
which the husband Is powerless to pre
vent , Tvlthout revealing the very thing ho
Is trying to conceal.
Matters are further complicated by tLe
fact that the pseudo Brown Is supplied with
two wives to suit the different emergencies ,
and Is finally accounted a Mormon by the
Irascible father , who has caused all the
trouble. Ultimately matters are straight
ened out by the eon confessing the fact
that he Is married , and as the old gentle
men has become very fond of Mrs. Brown
ho finally gives them his blessing and every
thing ends happily.

Tomorrow evening will be the occasion of
Mr , Bellstedt's first classical concert and
the Indications are that the Exposition will
bo visited by a great number of people.
Inasmuch as the musical department has
received a number of requests that the con
certs should be given in the open air It
has been decided to have ( he concert on
tbe Plaza , instead of in tbe auditorium.
The program will not be exclusively clas
sical , and thoee who come to bo amused
will doubtless receive the value of their ad
mission fee for Mr. Bellstedt is a genius in
the matter of encores.
To the serious-minded the program will
be of special interest , and owing to tbe fact
thnt there are a great many people who
listen to these concerts without fully un
derstanding the meaning of the best claa-
elcal selections there is appended herewith
a synopsis of the principal numbers on the
program ;

( a ) Sunrise.

Second Hungarian Rhapsodlo , . .Liszt
Flower Dance from "The Ballet".Pugnl
"Pharo'8 Daughter. "
Flute Obllcatot Mons Chevre.
Selection from "The Serenade".Herbert
The first number Is the Overture to Tann-
hacuser and U probably ono ot the mo t pop
ular concert numbers -which have pro
ceeded from the brain and pen ot Richard
Wagner. It Is founded on the "Singing
Contests" at the Wnrthburg and refers to
an old Gorman legend , Briefly the story
is aa follows !
Tannhacupcr , a minstrel knight under the
passionate sway of Venus , \\ho wishes to
dotaln him at her castle at Venusburg ,
appeals to him nvltli all the eloquence ot a
woman madly In lovo. He succeeds , how
ever , In tearing himself away from her
charms and ho appears at the castle of
Wnrthburg , whore resides Herman , the
pnodgrave , whoso daughter Elizabeth Is In
love with him. Ho enters the mlnsticl con
test and slngo with reckless abandon n song
which disgusts the more pure-minded mln-
strcle , who , roused to vengeance , try to kill
him. Elizabeth Interposes and his life la
saved , -whereupon ho makes a pilgrimage to
Romo. The pope refuses to pardon him
until the pope's crosier blossoms. He re
turns heartbroken and meets a fellow-
minstrel , Wolfram , -who is In love with Eliz
abeth. At this point ensues a terrific strug
gle between the higher and lower tenden
cies of man'o nature , but nhen the name ot
Elizabeth is mentioned the better part of
the man gains the victory. lA largo funeral
procession approaches , which Is none other
than that of Elizabeth , and Tannhaeuscr
perceiving it , falls upon the coftln and dies.
As his spirit leaves the flesh the pilgrims
returning from Rome tell that the popo'a
etoft has miraculously burst Into blossom
and that consequently bis elns have been
forgiven him.
The overture to Tannhaouser begins with
the chorus of the pilgrims nod Is followed
by the wild and passionate motif of the
Venus mus.lc , and the reckless singing of
Tannhaeuser , which eventually passes into
the pilgrim's chorus , is renewed with ter
rific force and played by the entlro or.
chestra. It is one of Wagner'a best over
tures. It was produced at Dresden in 1845.
Wagner was born at Lalpslg on May 22 ,
1813 , and died at Venice on February 13 ,
1883 , being burled at Bayreutb , the quiet
old Bavarian town which ho made famous
as the homo of the founder of German
musical drama , distinctly natural and abso
lutely original.
The second number on the program Is
written by Leo Deltbee , a French composnr
of great attainments , who was born in 1835
and died In 1891. Critics say that his beet
work was "Coppella. " Ho was best known ,
perhaps , as a chorus master , although hlo
compositions have received strong commen
dation. The ono best known to the music
lovers of this country is "Lakme. "
The third number is the prelude to "King
Manfred , " by Karl Relnecko. Ho was a
conduotor of the Gowandhaus concerts at
Lelpslg. Ho was torn June 23 , 1823 , and
was a conductor of importance , a composer
of much Ingenuity and a prominent pianist.
His works show distinctly the Influence of
Mendelssohn and Schumann.
The etory of King Manfred can be read
In the works of Byron. Manfred was a
man who led a very solitary life. He was
of a very misanthropical turn of mind and
he was what might be termed in modem
days an agnostic. Ho had no fixed religious
beliefs and was haunted by the dread of the
mortality of the soul. His ono revolting
eln was an insane passion for hU sister ,
Astate , who committed suicldo as the result
of his madness. The music which Is heard
in this prelude is supposed to be descriptive
of Manfred in his own home in the Gothic
gallery of his wild castle , where he had In
his power the seven spirits of earth , ocean ,
air , night , mountains , wind and the star of
hlo nativity.
"Peer Gynt" finds its place on every con
cert program. It was written by Edvrurd
Grieg , who was born at Bergen in June ,
1843. He is a nationalist in hla mualc ,
which Is connected persistently with Scan
dinavian features.
The cornet solo , "Mandollnata , " fantasia
* y Poladllhe , is a difficult number and Mr.
BollstedtRill do it Justice. The composer ,
Emll Poladllhe , was born at Montpclllcr on
June 3 , 1844. Ho xMjmposcd many works ,
but "La Mandollnata" was the ono that
drew attention to Ms merits.
The music of Liszt Is always attractive
and especially that which pertaJns to his
particular uatlonnl characteristics , the fif
teen Hungarian rhapsodies , ono of which is
on this program. A rhapsodic Is understood
ns on instrumental fantasia on the songs
cf various nations. As , for example , a
Hungarian rhapsody , which means a. fan
tasia on melodies distinctly Hungarian. Liszt
wns 'born ' In October , 1811 , ami died In July ,
1886 , nt Bayreuth. His third child was Co-
slum , wife of the late lamented Richard
Wagner.
The seventh number on the program was
wiljtten by Ccsaro Pugnl , who was dis
tinguished only as a ballot writer. Ho
composed twenty-one ballets for the tho-
ntera at Milan , Paris nnd St. Petersburg.
Ho was born In 1803. "Pharo's Daughter"
Is probably the best ot his works.
The "Serenade" music is BO well known
that It needs no special description. Alice
Nollsen , In her wonderfully successful tour
In the "Fortune Teller , " and the unique
Bostonlans In the "Serenade" have made
Victor Herbert's music popular , Just s his
"cello playing and bis work as a conductor
have secured for himself universal approba
tion , THOMAS J. KELLY.
