Sine tho first theater was built In Omaha there has not been a better theatri cal season and very few as good In every way as the one of 1901-2, which we brought to a close Friday night of last week. The list of attractlona included nearly U of the great stars of the American sUge, as well aa several prominent ones from abroad. There were very few night dur ing the entire sesson when there waa not soma' attraction at tho legitimate theater and cot a night between the middle of Sep tember and the first of May when vaude ville entertainment was not to bo had at the Orpheum.' The season opened at the Boyd oa . Sep tember 6, the opening attraction being "Florodora," the most successful musical comedy of the last few years. Naturally the theater wa crowded to the limit of Ita seating capacity at each of the three per formances of the piece. The clnelng at traction, "When Reuben Comes to Town," while not anticipated with any great amount of pleasure, proved almost aa mag netic as the season'a opening attraction, filling the theater at each of the two per formances given of It. It proved a disap pointment In every way, being the least meritorious of any of the musical attrac tions of the season Between the opening and closing dates such prominent players and plays as fol Iowa wore presented by the management: Charles Frohman's Empire Stock company, headed by Margaret Anglln and Charles Rlchman, In "Mrs. Dane's Defense;" Daniel Frohman's Lyceum company, headed by Hilda Spong, in "Lady Huntsworth's Ex periment;" Stuart Robson In a revival of "The Henrietta," Annie Russell In "A Royal Family," Otis Skinner In "Franceaca dl Rlmlnl," "Foxy Qulller," with Jerome 8ykes and Orace Cameron in the leading parts; "The Burgomaster," "King Dodo," Blanche Walsh in "The Hunt for Happl ness" and again later In the season In "Janice Meredith" and "La Madeleine Herbert Kelcey and Effle Shannon In "Her Lord and Master," Frederick Warde In "The Mountebank" and "King Lear," Tim Murphy in "A Capitol Comedy," Modjeska and James. "Florodora" again for a alngle Christmas eve performance, Henry Irving and Ellen Terry In a repertoire of their popular plays, Marguerlta Sylva In "The Prlncesa Chic," Melbourne McDowell and Floronce Stone In "La Tosca," Willie Collier In "On tho Quiet," "The Strollers."

It la not, perhaps, even what ho would choose to have said, for the pride that be feela builds Itself wholly upon the things he haa done, not upon him, the man. But in recent years people have come to have a very fair knowledge of those ac cotnpllshments while possessing only a meagre knowledge of the man, and the latter la for them quite as Interesting a toplo aa the former. We must confess, too, that one who visits this actor la his car for an hour, comes forth yearning to fire a few shots of his own at skulking Rumor, tho work of his brain and hands work which haa occupied years, which haa made each forward step to teem a risk of all that'a won before; work which has badgered hla art with petty adveraitles and annoy ances; work which baa worn him with travel and isolated him from his wife and family; work which makes him glad to turn at last from touring and acting, month after month, to enjoy the comforts of a life at home and with hla own people!"

But for the professional "coach" who wander from his legitimate path. In order to cater to , and get the money from. a sot of nickel-plated unfortunates who ever having studied, want a coach, there ahould be nothing but contempt, and there la nothing but that. Imagine a young atudent of pianoforte music going to any of our prominent piano teachera and saying, "Please, I want to be coached on thla Tally-Ho gallop," which I have brought with me. Don't be alarmed. dignified "teachers," you must become "coachers." May heaven hasten the time when It Is no disgrace to teach study, or to think, In muMc. When the student, the thinker, the artist, with hla sincerity of expression, with his simplicity of straightforward art, his absence of ambiguous rot about "cov ering," "spinning," "opening," "vitalising," the tone will banish the "cap and bells" and sesson for a first time.

It has been reported that for the next sea son, that of 1903-04 he plana a stu pendous production of "Herod," but his own statement Is that he has no plans reachlDg so far ahead. He doea not, he states, dread returning to the Shakes pearean rolea, as he Is quite fatigues after a performance of "Beaucalre" aa he used to bo after one of "Richard III In preparing to reanimate the clay of the Illustrious emperor he Is comparing the many acting versions of the flay and from them arranging his own a task which he are: Ted Brocket, Thaddeus Gray, Kooert Blaylock, Lewis Barbour, Matsle Cecil, Josle Haines, Kittle De Lorme. Mr. Ferris will appear In every production In the comedy roles and Miss Hayward will handle all the leading feminine rotes. Two playa will be presented each week, the openings being Sundays and Thursdays. The opening bills of the season will be Nat Goodwin' "In Missouri' for the first half of next week and Olga Nethersole' "Denise" for the last half of the week. Matinees will be given on Sundays, Wednesday and Satur day. At the matinees 10 cents will secure any reserved seat in the theater. The night prlcea will be 10, 15 and 20 cents. The list of plays secured by Mr. Ferris has approached without trepidation, as he f0P the engagement Includes "Jim, the Pen- has often accomplished it before. He has written quite a number of play, as well, which have been produced in his own name and in fictitious ones with varying degrees I of success. Mansfield brands a play of hla own as a failure as readily aa he would that of anyone else and finds little to laud In any of those of recent making. It was of this that he spoke particularly in an Interview Tuesday. In substance, it was practically this that he aald of the modern stage and the modern plays: "If our good players be tew, our good plays are fewer. Not many If any are being written now, yet I am certain there are persons fully capable of doing such work man," "Secret Service, snenanaoan," a Modern Magdalen," "A Glided Fool," "Under Two Flags," the Hoyt farces. Two big special productions will be made, Bern- bardt's "L'AIglon" and the new book play, "Graustark." All play will be given spe cial scenic dress, two scene painters being regularly employed for that purpose at the theater. light-headed and half-educated musician- ettes who prat about coaching and coaches. In these days of automatlo "coaches" let us pray for a little common "horse' aense. A friend has sent me the following clip ping and I eurmlse that he is of the opinion that I should "do things" In this column by the firm stroke of the hard-working, but consistent hammer of The Bee. The friend In question Is one of those gentle creatures who would not hurt a fly, nor find fault with a corporation as sessment, so he asks me In a subtle, indirect way to express those feelings which he la too modest to utter.

He talks of acting as an art, of the stage a a place for exploiting truth that ar beneficial and wholeaome, of home a the haven of the weary and of wife aad child a the blessings to which men turn for the real Joy of life. "Roaring Richard" force hi guest to wonder what liar contrived the name. Not that he 1 a passive man! Not that he appeara a one seeking always to be genial. He has little liking for that word "genial;" for him It means a swaying with the winds and a bowing to the caprices of mankind. At swaying and bowing Mans field, as Mansfield, would be a most Inglori ous failure. He Is one who knows, who knows that he knowa and who, without bravado, stick to It until other folk have had time to grasp hla Ideaa and agree with him. In speech he Is direct but un consciously a epigrammatic almost aome of the character whose word he has supplied. In gesturing he 1 a graceful off the itago aa on it and always with ef fect. Furthermore, he baa ready command of at least three languages, and a aupply, apparently Inexhaustible, of French and German Idioms.

"And am I any worse for taking a posi tive stand against these evil and nul sancesT ' Must I endure them because Booth and other great actors did, or for the aake of being called genial! Would such geniality of mine make matters any better for the public, or do any real good for the stage T If a thing be an evil or a nuisance, why not be plain about It and say: Thla must not be. I will not permit It?'

You say to him: 'Not that way, please, Do It thus, or so,' and he straightens him self Indignantly to answer: 'Sir, I have been with leading artist many years, and this Is the first time I ever had my ges turing criticised.' Or, It may be a woman whom you presume to advise, and, then- well, some of them may say: 'Mr. So and So, you are the first person ever to find fault with my elocution.'
