i THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:

The present week has ended the season at

tthen this home was opened." said Man-
,. i'vncimwi, i.pie hi ine eny mm mo
mm il wa an impossibility ror mr or any '
eno else to mako a vaudeville house In
umaha a isticce?s. Profoaslonal people with
Thotn I hart an acquaintance wired me that
they could sen my flnleh and none of them j
gave mo over two weekn of biitsincs. I i
thought I was up against u dirilciilt prnposl-
tlon myself, but when we ended the first
week there was n profit on the right wide nf '
the ledger and there has never been a week
In tho history ef the houne when we have
piaycci to a losing tmalness. Six Sunday
nlghtfl In succession lat winter we took
every scrap of scenery from the ntngc. with
tho exception r,f n slnglo background, and
filled the stage with vlkltorn. Amateur
nights It ha hern no uncommon thing to
have, an nudlenfe of n.O'iO people In the
house and tho attendance throughout tho,
-neert nas reen uniformly good.
"For the nrxt sensm we are making prepa.
ratlonn that far surpass anything we have
offered In the paht. Among the attraction
that we have already booked are Mile..
Sealchl, Mlllan Uumell and Thomas Sen
brooke. Mr. Myerfleld. president of the!
orpheum circuit, was In the city a few
dajs ago nn his way to Kurope, where, In I
conjunction with Ihe regular Orpheum agents I
In Paris, Ilerlln and Vienna, he will en
deavor to seeuro nomo fares that have not
as yet been seen on this side of ihe At
lantic. The question will not be how much,
hut how good. In the last year we have
had two notable attractions that came from
Furopo and were seen first In this house.
They were the Floroiu family, who made
the Jump to Omaha from Dublin, and the
O'Leary?. who came to us direct from Ilerlln.
Our agents abroad are constantly nn the
lookout for attractions, but none of them
in eve. engaged until our representatives
havn seen them work.
"There are Indication that the Orpheum
circuit will he considerably extended another
season. Denver and New Orleans will cer
tainly be addend and negotiations1 are now
pending for theaters In St. Paul and Minne
apolis. We feel that vaudeville la still In
Its Infancy and believe the time will come
when It will be hard work for managers
playing tho le-gltlmato to till their com
panies. The vaudeville star runs no risk
his salary and transportation are assured ami
the only expenso he Is put to Is for his hotel
bills whllo he Is In tho city.
"To the credit of Omaha It can be said
that It Is the only city of Its size In the
I'nlted States' that supports a vaudeville
houeo nnd among its regular p.itrrns arc
some of the best and wealthiest families In
tho city. We have nn our books now a list
of more than 2,"i0 patrons for whom we
legularly lay aside ticket.? every week and
rflen thce same people, after witnessing
ono performance, will come again later In
Ihe week and bring their friends. The
Omaha lAuse. too, Is the best known In
the whole circuit, several Incidents which
liavo happened In the past having given It a
great deal of free advertising of the best
kind.
"The prospect for the hotlo was never eo
bright before and no pains w ill bo spared to
maintain the excellence of Its standanland
to raise It still higher If the best people In
the theatrical burlncrn at fancy salarlej will
do It."
One of the most beautiful and tender
ti Unites that have been paid to Henry
Irving and Kllen Terry during their present
tour came from the pen of William Winter,
the critic of the New York Tribune, on the
occasion of their beginning their closing
performances at the Harlem thentar. After
reviewing at some length tho services these
two great artists have rendered tho stage
and enumerating the dramas In which they
have appeared as co-stars, Mr. Winter says:
"When Rarrlck took leave of the stage,
In 1T7K, thn sensitive and sprightly Hannah
More, who attended each one of his dosing
l eprcsentatlons. wrote that she felt as If
she had been arslsting at the obsequies nf
the different poets. Henry Irving and
Kllen Terry are not leaving the stage: far
distant he the day when their labors cease
snd '.heir light is extinguished; yet a
nlmlrcd pcntlment of sadness steals through
he feeling with which their farewell per
'ormances are now observed. It Is not
alone Kllen Terry who says goodbye: It is
the enchanting Portia, the radiant Beatrice,
the incomparable Ophelia, the passionate,
tender Olivia the perfection of womanhood:
it Is the face of beauty that never can be
forgotten, and the voice of unglral swect
nrsH that will c.'ho forever In the secret
chambers of the heart. It Is not alone
Henry Irving who vanishes arrofs the sea,
It Is tho spiritual presence of Hamlet, tho
nnblo image of Lcsurqucs. tno ravaged fig
ure of Shylock, the hauntrd soul of Mathias,
the gaunt, terrific, Imperial King Louis,
the sweet, simple, venerable, loving ami
lorely Dr. Prlmtosc the perfection at once
of humanity and art; It Is the greatest
purely Intellectual force that has been ex
erted In tho field of the drama, within the
last fifty years; It Is the mnn. beloved by
many and respected by all. who. more than
any slnglo one of hln contemporaries, hah
stimulated the progress of dramatic art.
who has sacrificed his fortune and almost
his life In the service of a splendid an I
most beneficent Ideal, and who has made
the theater great and kept It puie.
"On nur white wings. c aiuel ears,
Through roseate sunshine sprinting.
Waft fortune from all happl-r spltrres,
With garlands and with Hinging'
Mako strung that tender henrt and true
That thought of lleiven to guide him
.And blessings pour, like diamond dew,
On her that walks beside hlml
"And when Is said the last farewell,
So solemn nnd so certain.
And Fate shall strike the prompter's bell,
To drop the llnnl curtain.
Tie his, whom every Mum1 hath blest.
That best nf earthly clnes
To lnk to rest on Kngland's breast,
And sleep beneath her roses."

This, thn otllclals of the Institutions say.

upward tendency to the present time. We I
open two or three now accounts every day
Our huslncss Is done almost altogether with
the laboring classes and the small business
men. We don't encourage the depositing
of large amounts."
C. W. Lyman, president of the Commer
cial National bank, said: "For several
years, Immediately following the flurry tn
financial affairs of ISM, the laboring classes
were timid about depositing their money
In banks. Naturally, they were slower n
regaining confidence than a business man
would be, but of" late a very gratifying num
ber of small accounts have been opened
with us As to Just how many such clle.nts
wo have gained within the last two years
It would ho Impossible for me to say. Thero
are on our books something like 1,100 ac
counts, and a largo number of these de
positors are not known to us personally.
In a general way, however. I can say that
the. poorer classes are more geneia'ly tepre
sented on our books now than ever before."
H. M. Wood, vice president of the Mer
chants' National bank, said: "Compara
tively few working people deposit with us,
hut from what I have seen nf tholr condi
tion I would tay that they are In more pros
perous circumstances now than before In
years. We are having very few applica
tions for employment, and that Is a good
sign. Indicating that laborers are already
employed at satisfactory wages."
More Money In Clretilntlnn.
P. II. I lav ls. cashlor of the First Na
tional bank, concurred In tho foregoing and
said: "There is a gratifying Increare In
the amount of money In circulation from all
clnssc's, and particularly from the depositor
-who savew money from his wages. I would
say that the wage-earners are In hcttcr cir
cumstances now than they have been for
several years."
Oecrgc F. Ollmore, secretary of the Con
servative Building and Loan association,
says that fi7. new accounts have been opened
with hit, concern since January 1. 1P0O.
"About three-fourths of all thefe accounts
were opened by the wage-earning class,"
said he. "Nearly all homestead loans arc
made by the working people and on all uch
loapr, they have made all paymenta so
promptly that In eight years we have fore
closed no mortgages. We have not taken a
single heme In settlement of debt due us
nnd practically all Interest Is paid with great
promptness.
"With the savings accumulated during the
past three or four years the wage-earnerf
are now buying i:p for home purposes the
property held In tho city bv eastern people
desirous of realizing on their western In
vestments." To (inln il tiooit ltcMil!it Inn,
"The way to gain a good reputation Is to
endeavor to be what you dcslro to appear."
