1 TITT3 OMATLA DAILY BEE : SUNDAY . 1000. § AMUSEMENTS. f Wlih the opening month of the jo.ir th" , theatrical m-aon n-ni lies Its hrleht and1 regular play-goers who have for months tron awaiting the coming of the "big" at tractions with anxious expectancy arc on thn verge of'hHving their desires for meri torious amusement gratified. During th last week a notlrosMn Improvement In the quality of attractions was evident at both theaters and the week opening today prom ises several more good things. Of course , the engagement of the ROB- tnnluna wag the notable event of the last week. For as much as twenty yearn the Mult of this splendid organization to Omaha lins hem an annual affair and Is always anticipated with a great deal of pleasure not only by the play-going public , but by those as well who rarely over attend the theater , unless It bo to see the Rostonlans , Sol Smith Russell or some others of the Rood old-tlmorH wJio have by dint of ppr- tlBtent efforts and honest dealing with the public gained a confidence never to bo shaken and n place In the hearts of all tmuscmtiit lovers. With the Intention of beginning the now- rear aright , the dramatic editor spent the Rreatcr part of Its first day In "tidying up" his "den. " Old cabinets needed cleaning out , their contents having long since served their ( la > H of usefulness , piles of papers which hail found n resting place on top of them for years were awaiting consignment lo the waste basket and different shelves within , filled vlth books and pamphlets , went ready to bo relieved of their ancient , burdens. It was from one of the latter that n roll of papers , yellow with ago , acciden tally fell to the floor , while others were be ing removed ; the rubber band encircling the bundle crumbled away and allowed Its con tents to spread over the floor. The writer I Marled to gather them up with the Inten- ' lion of giving them a final resting place In the wnstcpaper basket , when the following , printed In bold-face typo across the front of ono of them , caught his eye : "Engage ment of the Roston Ideal Opera Company December ! , 5 , G and 7 , 1R82. " H proved to bo a program used at the old Hoyd'H opera houoa eighteen years ago. Further Inspection revealed the fact that the entire roll of papers consisted of a collection of ancient theatrical programs probably plowed away and forgotten by some one of The Hoe's former dramatic editors. The program referred to proved to bo that of "Tho Pirates of Pcnzanco , " which was nl that time Included In the repertoire of the Roston Meals , long since called the Ros tonlans. The engagement was for six per formances and the programs for the other flvo performances when sorted from the lot proved to bo those of "Tho Musketeers , " "The Hohemlan Girl , " "Fatlnltza" and "The Marriage of Figaro , " two performances hav ing been given of the latter. Prominent In the cast of each of the above now old-time favorite operas were the following names : Henry Clay Rarnahoe , To m Karl , W. H. MacDonnld , ( Jcorgo Frothlngham , H. W. Whitney , Marie Stone , Mary Reebe. Geral- dlno Ulmor. Mathilda Phillips. Lizzie Rur- ton , Fanny Rice , Hcrndcn Morsell , A. F. Nichols , Louise LeRlanchc and others , the majority of whom would only be remem bered by theater-goers of those , the first of Omaha's theatrical days , who arc still alive. Last week's engagement of the Hostonlans created a double Interest In the programs which were carefully looked over , wrapped In a piece of paper and laid to ono side for future reference. Friday when the Ros tonlans arrived In the city the writer hunted up Henry Clay Rarnabce. who was ono of the organizers of the Roston Ideals and who has remained the leading funmaker of the company through Its many years of suc cesses and exhibited the programs to him. A Binllo spread over the countenance of the whlto-halred veteran , who , however , despite Ills aged appearance , declares himself as yoiinc ; at heart as a schoolboy and Just as ready to have n race around the "block and ho fell Into n reminiscent mood at once. "Ah , yes ; those were the good old days of our beginning , " said Mr. Rarnabee. "They nre ns fresh In my memory as though but a year had passed instead of nearly a score. Omaha In thnso days was a comparatively rmall place and nt that time I little thought that It would bo the handsome metropolitan city that It Is today. I think Omaha and j Kansas City are two of the best examples j of thn 'progress of the times' of any in the | country. ! ' "Tho one thing that makes mo remember Omaha In these earlier days so well Is that. I think there was more sand In ( I HtreolK than In any other place in tin1 country - . | try ; and likewise more wind and of course' ' you know the combination Is a bad one. I i "I remember ono rather humorous occurrence - renco during the llrst visit of the Roton . Ideals to Omaha. Mr , Karl and myself were out strolling early ono morning. We walked tip the hill on Farnam street. U was bitter cold and Just enough snow upon the ground to partially cover It. The wind was blowIng - Ing fiercely and It kept us busy keeping the nuiid and snow out of our eyes , mouths and oars. Of course ut that time there was no pavement. We espied a funeral procession coming down Fnrnam street , and nudging Tom In the side , I remarked : 'There In that lioarso Is certainly the happiest man In this world. He Is dead and will be peaceably burled , while wo and the rest of the mortals In thin town will soon bo burled allvo bo- ncath this deluge of sand unlms wo get un der cover soon. ' Wo returned to our hotel and took no more strolls that day. "What has become of the original mem bers of our company ? Well , they are scat tered all over the country , some arc dead , < ilnrn ! hn\r retired and the balance of us arr still Mmine to amuse the public of to day. Mr. FrothUiRhnm. Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Sttidlfy. our conductor , and myself nre all of thn old suard that remain with the present Uoatonlans. Tom Karl has retired and Is teaching music In New York , Whit- tiey Is In Roston and sings In the churches there now and then. Mary Reebe , who was our first soprano , has retired , Marie Stone la the wife of Mr. MncDonald and Is satlsfic.l to travel with her husband and watch the performances from the front. Gcraldlne L'lmer Is ttill singing and making a great j i hit In London , so 1 hear. Fnnny Rice Is , j of course , you know , the burlesque qitcon 1 now. A. F. Nichols Is dead and the others nro scattered to the four winds. "This program , " said Mr. Harnabce , pick ing up ono of ithcm , "reminds mo that 'Tho Marriage of Figaro , ' which In my mind Is * ho most classical opera the Rostonlans over attempted , was given Us first Omaha produc tion by our company and scored a big hit. U was afterward Included In our repertoire and wherever wo played It always proved a favorite. "I am frank In saying , " continued Mr. Rnrnnbeo , "that the Rostonlans have de veloped , and brought to light more Amer ican talent than 'any other organization In the country. Just glnnco over some of our old programs , rend the names and think where the majority of the people nro to- day. Wo discovered Eugene Cowles some years ago. He was working In a bank In Chicago and singing In a church choir. Today ho Is America's leading basso. Alice Nielsen , Helllo Do Lussan , Jessie Rartlott Davis , Camlllo d'Arvlllo an < l others too numerous to mention started with us , many In the chorus mid others only In small parts , and where are they today ? All holding leading positions In operatic or ganizations and some even stars of the first magnitude. Hut I don't believe the people give us credit for the missionary work we are doing In developing Ameri can vocalists. They are looking for some thing new In the amusement line , but llt- tlo do they care how or where It comes from , Just so they got It. " 'And ' so much for ono story of reminis cence the old programs have served. There are countless others among them and from time 'to time rare bits from them will be published In this department. In looking over the names Included In the various casts published In the hundred or odd more which the roll was made up of It Is really surprising to read the different ones opposite small parts that are now leading lights In the dramatic world. The range from the romantic to light com edy Is quite a lengthy one , and an actor who can play the gamut and play It well Is a most versatile and pliable one. In this connection It Is noted that this season Otis Skinner Ij playing the role In "The Liars , " that cold , matter of fact , clever John Drew- handled last season. The writer saw John Drew In the role and Is anxious to see Mr. Skinner's interpretation of It. He Is an ad mirer of Mr. Skinner and believes there Is nothing Impossible with this clever fellow. Hero Is a letter received by The Dee from an Omaha theater-goer who evidently at tended the last amateur night at the local vaudeville playhouse and failed to find In It that degree of satisfaction which would warrant - rant him In putting up the price of admis sion for the entertainment : OMAHA , Jan. 3. To the Dramatic Editor of The Reo : It may bo newspaper ethics to pass over the faults of amateur theatrical performers and try to find something pleasIng - Ing to say about them , as you have done In your report of last Friday's amateur night at the Orpheum , but I think you owe It to the public to show up this performance In Its true liht. No ono could have sat through It without coming to the conclusion that no possible excuse exists for such an Infliction upon the public , which can be characterized only as cruelty to the performers or the audience , and In most cases to both. The theatrical manager may be justified In encouraging persons who have some talent or reasonable assurance of success to try their hand upon the stage , but to open the door Indlscrlmi- natcly to every ono who Imagines he can i do a turn , Irrespective of ability or vulgar ity. Is an imposition upon his patrons. At last Friday's performance not more | than two of the amateur numbers would i have boon tolerated In the cheapest variety hall In the country. On the contrary , most of them would have been barred out as Indecent or vulgar. Several of the alleged ' performers came on the stage In a comlt- tion of half < lruss , exposing themselves in I most suggestive and disgusting manners. Ono of the so-called performers who had been widely advertised and billed Is ex- ' cuscd by his friends on the charitable ! ground ithat ho Is weak In his mind , yet J the management of this theater has led him on to make a debasing exhibition of I himself by telling him that he has the i making of an attor when ho is incapable I of itho work of even a passable clown. I j havci since bt'eiv Informed that this man , who has n family to support , has been In veigled Into throwing up a paying position with the Idea that ho has a future before him on * ho stage. If thin Is so It Is little short of criminal on the part of those who have misled him Into taking such a step. 'Amateur ' night Is , i success In only ono particular , and that Is theit It brings curl- osily seeking people Into the showhouso and money into 'the ' box olllco. Rut even peedlly and permanently rorrei led or re moved without pain. Consultation either Jn perton or by U-ttcr Is free and strictly rontldonttal.

THEATER LOV1CU. Co in I ii u : Kvrnt * . 1 A Jealous wlfo and on over-sensitive him- hand form the groundwork of William Oil- ' lotto's latest comedy success , "Because She l/jved Him So , " which will bo seen at Hoyd's this afternoon and nlchl only. The piece Is a farce of sentimental proclivities and Its posfiteslon of popular elements was demonstrated by the long run of ino nights i at the Madison Square theater , New York , I last season , and also by the entire summer run It had nt Powers' theater , Chicago. Charles Krohmnn has declared It to bo one of the funniest and most successful farcea ho has ever handled , which means a great deal. It Is an adaptation from the French of tllsson and Leclercq , The play will bo given an elaborate stage getting and the company handling It , with but one or two exceptions , will bo the same as has been with It for two seasons. The eminent legitimate actress , Mlf Krancesca Redding , has been engaged for' ono week's appearance at the Crclghton- Orpheum , beginning at the matlnco today. She will be supported by her own company and will present her latest New York sue- CCSH , entitled "Her Krlend from Texas. " This versatile actress , who Is said to be I ' a beautiful woman poesesslng a charming : , personality , has been leading lady for some I of the best traveling companies of the ! United States , and Is said to bo now a star j | of the tlt-Ht magnitude. The other attrac tions of the week at the Orpheum arc : Charlca Sweet , the muwlcal burglar , whoso act Is said to be unique and original ; Pete j j I Hakcr , the Dutch dialect comedian , late of I Hakor & Farrcn of "Chris and Lena" fame , j who will sing and glvo humorous recita tions ; Miss Flo Irwln , comedienne , sup ported by Walter Hawley and company , will glvo a clever budget of sense and nonsense ; A. D. Hobblns , trick bicyclist ; Marjorlta and Ugluc , the Darktown swells , In songs and dances ; and Uaby Lund , who Is claimed to bo the greatest child artist on the Amer ican vaudeville stage , who will give her character Impersonations and songs. The next amateur night will bo on Friday evening of this week. Three medals will be awarded to the best amateurs , , At Doyd's theater on Monday and Tuesday nights Mr. Charles Frohman will present a dramatization of Anthony Hope's novel. "Phroso. " with Odette Tyler In the tltlo role , and a specially selected company to as- slst her. Miss Tyler , who has recently starred In Shakespearean roles with un doubted success and previous to that made a great artistic triumph ns Caroline Mltford In Gillette's "Secret Service" In New York and London , Is both a charming comedienne and an exquisite Interpreter of light heroic roles. She ban that , combination of delight ful histrionic qualities which the character of I ady Kuphrosyno calls for , and she Is said to give a most effective and sympa- ' thetlc rendering of the role. The stage 1 production will , during the engagement , bo on the same lines as used at the Empire theater. New York , during the run of "Phroso" there. The east has put its stamp of approval on the play as well as the artists , and this Is the first time that a bid has been made for western criticism. Those who have read the novel will probably bo disappointed In many phases of the piece , as they were when witnessing "The Chris tian. " In the dramatization of a novel much Is sacrificed of the original story for dramatic effect. Instances n.-o known where a now character has been Introduced with the author's permission. However , in "Phroso" little departure from the original story was made because of the fact that the story Is a very strong one dramatically. Omaha theatergoers had the opportunity two weeks ago of hearing the matchless voice of Mine. Emma Nevada , and Wednes day night at Royd's they will be granted the privilege of hearing Mme. ScalchI , the famous contralto , the possessor of a voice that has never been duplicated and probably never will be. She Is accompanied this sea son by ono of the strongest companies of artists she has ever had. Mme. nernlco do Pasrmall Is the prlma donna soprano and ! her husband , Slgnor ile Pasquall , Is the tenor. The baritone Is Slgnor Frances , chettl. Chovaller lo Vcrdo Is the pianist. "Drllllnnt , keen and satirical" Is ono of the critical labels placed upon Henry Arthur Jones' comedy of society manners , "Tho Liars , " which Mr. Otis Skinner will present at the Royd for four performances commencing January 15. "Tho Liars" has In RH record a four-months run at the Em pire theater , New York , and the production will bo the same as presented during Its New York run. Its atmosphere Is what might be called a high-bred one. The literary quality of "Tho Liars" Is one of Us chief charms. The com pany is reputed to bo a strong one cer tainly these names on Its roster give evi dence enough of the individual and collec tive strength of the organization : Frank L. Sylvester , E. A. Eberle , Harry Hyde , W. C. Andrews , Alfred Edwards , Lewis Webster , Clara Everett , Emma Llndberg , Ethel Strickland , Blanche Neal , Helen Strickland and Nanette Comstock. A place where hearts beat high and hands clasp firm , where pale-faced poverty finds no chill , where the latchfitring Is always out , "There Is Bohemia , " and If hard work and" conscientious training count for any thing Tommy Geu's "A Night In Hohemla" will go more like a professional than an amateur entertainment. H opeiiB on a scene i as soft as u summer sky and deftly woven j Into the beautiful story that runn through I the play are a dainty song and dance , ' amusing Salvation Army , a funny tramp , ] an eccentric policeman and a Jingling medley of popular songd and soft shoo- dancing that ends In a whirlwind of fun and music. The second act shows the ten der , loving nature of Edmund Keene , the old Bohemian ( Mr. CJ. P. Crnnk ) and con tains lines that the San Francisco Examiner said "wero gems from the ocean of thought. " Hero are Introduced a number of high clara specialties. Including "I Wish I WHS Rack on Broadway , " by the Misses Brlnn , Austin , Thomas , Hake. Condon and Sims ; "Tho Maiden with the Pompadour , " by Charles Uimb and Misses Fries and Sturgrs ; "I'd Leave my Happy Home for You , " by Mr. Gig Edwards ; "Come Back Dearest Heart , " by Mica Sttirges ; ragtime piano Jingles by Harry Cockrcll ; "Glvo Mo Hack Dem Clothes , " by Annie Brlnn ; "Lit tle Blue Jeanfl , " by George P. Cronk ; "A High Old Time , " "The Kissing Rug , " "A Letter from Ohio" and Corley and Rack's lalr.st and greatest hit "Charity by the Madrigal Roys. " It promises a great show and the sale of reserved teats opens Wednesday , January 10. Mme. Rosa d'Erlna , the Irish prlma donna , who gives a recital here this week under the auspices of the congregation of Holy Family church , is said to bo the possessor of a great dramatic soprano voice of tremendous vol ume and sweetness withal and , moreover. It Is claimed for her that i > he has few peers as an organist. As her name Indicates , she Is a native of the Emerald Isle , having been born In the city of Armagh. The late Dr. John Hull was one of her earliest friends. She Is Intensely patriotic and sings Irish eongs with that fervor and expression that only the Irish heart can feel. The Irish call her "Rosheen vbeen na nhan , " or "Sweet-voiced Rose of Song. " During a recent tour of Ireland be was more than once threatened with arrest , particularly in the north , fur singing certain so-called seditious jongs. She Is now making a tour of Iowa and Ne braska and Is being everywhere most en thusiastically received. I'ln1 * mill 1'lnj-rri. Theatricals cost Now Yorkers $30ov , > a night.

If she Is herself becoming more a favnr- I 1 lie In this country , Anna Held Is growing I fonder of It In her turn. She now wants a 1 play written for her by uit American nti- thor.

Charles A. Stevenson , the lending man of Mrs. Leslie Carter's support , Is the hus ' band of Kale Claxton. When he Is no : acting ho takes a lively Hyor In commercial life , and has the pleasant faculty of SIK-- ecodliiR equally well In both pursuits. What Is the matter with the dramatists of the popular-priced school that there has been no play based on the Mollneux trial ? True , It Is scarcely begun , but the sidewalk - walk dramatists have seldom walled so Ions before. The longer they delay it thu bettor. There Is a movement on foot among the "advanced" actors In New York to pu George Ucrnnrd Shaw't > plays on the boards. Mnnslleld has tried two , and ono or two have- been attempted In London , but they have not appealed to the public much so far. Rumors are again nlloat that Verdi Is writing a new opera If not two. Of course , ho denies. Ho always has denied such rti- morn , even when ho was young. Not loin * ago ho said to n. friend ; "My head Is full of melodies but , oh ! the trouble of Illllng all those sheets of paper with them ! " The new plec- : now being completed by Harry U. Smith for Mr. Lederer's nso will I i go Into rchenrral a wcvk from next Mon ' day. As already announced. It Is to lie called "A Casino Girl , " and will embrace the services of u typical Casino organ zu- tlon , with Virginia ICnrle In the tluiiur role. Some of the London newspapers ale mak- Ine merry over the prospectus of ; i i lay- writers' syndicate. Shares at about CO cents each are to be disposed of If buyers are to be found to the amount of about M5.0X ) . In a broad , general sort of way the promoter promises to elevate the stage by producing worthy works by British authors. I | It would be an excellent Idea If conserva tories and colleges of music were to Include In the course of studies a system of Instruc tion In the art of program-making. Some of the programs which come to this office are examples of carelessness and some are Indicative of a desire to rush Into print rather than to make a rational announce ment. The city editor of the paper had a serious attack of brain fever after looking over the many programs which were scut for the Christmas edition. The old reliable brain worrier , "Pigs In clover , " was not a circum stance , compared to a few of the notices re ceived. One Instance showed a great scarcity of writing material anil was written upon a personal church card , the name and address being left In typo and the details filled in by writing. Another case Is that of n gentleman who sent a lot of church matter and musical programs written closely on a postal card. This had to be sent to the government force of mlcroscop- ists at South Omaha for deciphering. A tendency Is noted toward writing on both sides of the paper. If musical people real ized that every program of this kind has to be entirely rewritten before going to the compositor they might be a little more charitably inclined. As to the construction of a program , there Is much to be done that Is now left undone. A good program should never contain the word "Selected. " If the number is worthy of presentation and the program is worth { printing , it should be done right. It is not ! a hard matter for a person to decide what shall ho his or her contribution and thu pro gram-maker should certainly see that the tltlo and the name of composer are exactly j right , and the name of the performer should I be written underneath. In one of the Chrlst- I mas programs which appeared in The Reo j Christmas Eve there appears the follow ing line ; lines Solo Mr. A. IJ. Birmingham and Chorus. This appears twice In the same program and It Is puzzling to know .how the solo will sound when sung by the chorus. The proper way to announce such a number would be : RUSH Solo and Chorus Nazareth..Gounod .Mr. A. U. Birmingham and Choir. Another church Bent In a program which contained the names of the composers , In the right hand side of the column , and then a tenor solo , and a soprano solo , "selected , " the names of the soloists appearing In the sumo column as the composers. The awk wardness of n Jumble llko this can best be appreciated by looking at a program of fa mous names , when It would appear that Rcethovrn , Mozart , Wagner , Chopin , Mrs. Smith and Miss Llzzlo Jones were the names of those whose works would ho nung. I An Omaha paper had a very good Instance ' of the evil effects of this kind of program- making some time ago. A church paper liad the announcement on a certain Saturday that the offertory solo on the next day would bo "Salvo Reglna , " by Dudley Ruck , where upon the dally appeared with the following statement : "This morning nt the church Dudley Ruck will sing the offertory , solo , "Salvo Reglna. " Another , and a particularly bad feature of program-making , Is the carelessness about the correct name of u com poser , or the tltlo of u work. The celebrated composer , Oliver King , ap pears In ono of the Christmas services n II. J. King. Incidentally , at her recent con cert here , Mme. Nevada sang an nrln from "Lakmo , " which appeared on the theater program as an aria from "Lakuno. " In stances of thin kind are too numerous to mention. A little attention to the makeup of pro. grams would tend to have n good ctfect nn the music-loving public , and the musicians should certainly give the matter serious consideration. Mr. Adelmann , the well-known violinist , will tlnd a new meaning In the Mendelssohn "Wedding March" on February 22. The marriage will take place In Minneapolis. I The program to be sung by the ScalchI { company contalr.fi many of the most desirable I numbers in musical literature. The star Is billed to ulng the great Meyerbeer aria "No- ibll Signer' " and to appear In the quartet ntt Wood ward tX Burgess , Malingers.
