coming and going has had little effect on
the real life of the vaudeville stage. Even
before we adopted this Trench word, the

the method of presenting it only has

the Investment of large sums of money in
handsome theaters devoted to its presents

formers who devote their brains and energy
to the production of new "acts" for the
amusement of the public. It la not claimed
for vaudeville that It elevates or teaches
any lesson. It Is simply amusement, so
varied In its nature that at some time dur

Something to suit the amusement desires of
all Is offered. Omaha has been favored
since 1898 with one of the Important houses
of the most important of vaudeville com
binations, the Orpheum circuit. iMirlng this
time the very best of European and Amer
ican performers have appeared here and
have built up a taste for the amusement
that shows no sign of wsnlng. This even
ing the regular season at the Cmlghton-Or-pheum
opens, and the manager promises
that it will be not the least notable in the
history of the house.
"Corlanton" did not receive the support
from the Omaha people to which Its merit
as a play entitled it. This Is to be re
gretted, as much for the sake of the city
as for the managers who brought this
splendid production here. In Justice to
Omaha It Bhould be said that the play camo
practically unannounced and during Its
tay In the city was compelled to meet the
competition of the circus and the closing
concerta of the band season, with other
side attractions, which prevented a great
many from attending the Boyd. Thoee who
did see the play are lavish In their praise
of It. For years the west has been looked
upon as the home of the barbarian. - When
Maude Adams first went to New York from
Bait Ike City and was announced aa a
star there was much elevation of eyebrows
and looking aekonce at this adventurous
young person by the wise ones of Gotham,
who could hardly believe that anyone
should have the temerity to venture into
the sacred realms of the east through the
back yard gate, but Miss Adams success

might come out of Nazareth. Others have
followed from the west and by much effort
succeeded In obtaining New Tork endorse
ment. Mr. Dean has ventured In a new
field, however. Having convinced the
great ones of the east that we are capable
of producing actors in the west It now
becomes Incumbent to convince these skep
tical persons that the west can produce
an author and that a play of merit and
force can be written outside of the shadow
of the skyscrapers that dot Manhattan
Island. It is, of course, too uncertain to
venture a prediction as to the reception
this piece will secure In the east, but it
is certain that wherever art Is recognized
or ability Is given an opportunity to pre

will be a success.

A ove story serve as a subplot for
"Corlanton," but It Is the love of a pure
woman that leads the hero finally to hla
triumph, and the pure love of a bad woman
for the hero which finally leads her from
the degredatlon In which she has been
steeped to the hope of the glorious salva
tion. This phase of the th-me Is not lost,

"Corlanton."

matinee on Saturday. In addition to a li
bretto, bristling with wit. The "Sultan" Is
supplied with over a score of rhythmical
lyrics, that are said fairly to scintillate
original fun. Mr. Ade's songs are reported
to range from topical burlesque to string
military numbers, the Wathall music being
especially adapted to the humorous Ideas of
the book. The production la claimed to Ve

Alphonse and Gaston," which will bs
presented at the Boyd neit Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday matinee and night Is a
musical farce. With a cost of ten and a
chorus of thirty, "Alphonse and Gaston"
has been staged under the direction of Tan-

success has attended the production.
"Corlanton" Is undoubtedly written for a
purpose, put on the stage for a purpoae, and
played with such force and direction that It
Dumose cannot bo mistaken by anyone. It
glorifies the theme of the play, but that
theme is one to which all thinking persons
must nay respectful tribute. "Corlanton"
Is a missionary play in a broad sense
While It may be true, as alleged In some
quarters, that the Mormon church has taken
this unique meuod of proselyting, yet It Is
only by general Inference that the object In
this direction Is even hinted at. The alls
gory of the play Is very apparent from the
beginning. It exalts true religion and
makes a hero of a man whose feet are beset
by the pitfalls of sin, who Is lured by the
wiles of the Oodless from the path of duty
but who finally triumphs over all of these,
and, even as did Christian In John Bunyan's
immortal allegory finally reached the
heavenly city, so does Corlanton finally
reach his sphere of usefulness,, wherein
hi God -given qualities as a preacher may
be made of service to his fellow men. In
working out this thought the author has
surrounded the hero with all the aoees
sorles necessary to the dramatic embellish
tnent of a very simply story. No other
play now before the people haa so deep a
religious atmosphere nor does any other
readily recalled so thoroughly and con
slstently exalt virtu or present so com
pletely the weaknesses and vanities of
sinful life. Artistically th play I ex

SECRETARY HAY HAS FACTS
Armed with Ample Evidence Before
He Made Protest la Favor
of tbe Jews.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. In Tlew of tbe
disposition shown In tome quarters In Eu
rope to question tbs propriety of tbe In
terference of tbe United States In behalf
of the Roumanian Jews, and having In
mind a statement from tbe Roumanian au
thorities to the effect that these Jews had
declined agricultural work. It mar be of
Interest to note the fact that the State
department was particularly careful to
verify all tbe complaints that had reached
here from various sources respeottng the
harshness of Roumanian laws.
While the treaty of Berlin expressly for
bade discrimination against any person In
se Balkan states on account of religion,
the Roumanian government sought to
evade tbe clsrloal revision by decreeing
tbat the 400,000 Jews living In tbe coun
try were not eitisena, and consequently
that their protection was not contem
plated by the treaty.
Therefore, without naming the Jews a
the direct object of hostile legislation, the
Roumanian government has proceeded to
enact certain laws which the State depart
ment regarded as an undoubted violation
of the spirit of the treaty. For Instance,
one law provided that no Jew should live
In the agricultural sections of the country-
Another prohibited Jews from en
gaging In agricultural labor. Another for
bade tbe Jews to own farm lands. Finally
a law declared that anyone who employed
a Jew ehould also smploy ne less than two
Roumanians, and tbe restriction was pro
hibitive of Jewish labor la the small es
tablishments. Altogether the working of these laws, as
recited In Secretary Hay's note, was to de
prive the Jews in Roumanla of nearly all
opportunity to earn an honest living and
find honorable employment. These facts
will doubtlese be enlarged upon If the Rou
manian government undertakes to impeach
the statements contained In the Jewteh
note.

It was stated at the Navy department that
nothing baa developed In the lstnmian
situation up to this time to make neces
sary the presence of the additional 600 ma
rines who are to be assembled at Norfolk,
but the state of affairs along the railroad
Is regarded as making advisable the prepa

dispatch to the scene. Secretary Moody
nd Acting Secretary of State Adee had a
long conference today In regard to the

the Treaty.
warwtnotoN. Sept. 10. Secretary
Moody has finally decided to augment the
Untied States naval forces on the Isthmus
by the addition of 600 marines If Com
mander McLean' advices Indicate that
they are needed. He has given orders to
Commander Plllsbury of the United States
steamship Prairie, now at Boston, to pro
ceed with his ship to Norfolk. At that
point 600 marines will be gathered ready
to take ship when Secretary Moody's ad
vices Indicate the necessity for their pres
ence on the Isthmus.
Panther should arrive at Colon within
a day or two with SS0 marines aboard, so
that with Prairie's men and the marines
on Cincinnati, who are already ashore at
Colon, the United States will have what
is regarded as an ample force to carry-
out Its treaty obligations or maintaining
free traffic across the Isthmus.
Orders wers also sent forward today to
San Francisco, now at Norfolk, to coal and
provision and proceed to San Juan, Porto
Rico, there to await any emergency wnicn
may arise. There Is now only ons war
ship In Venezuelan waters, the little gun
boat Marietta, and Montgomery Is due to
rrlve shortly l Cspe Haytlen.
The object of the department In sending
down San Francisco. It Is. stated, is to have
a vessel ready to meet a call for rein
forcements, either in yeneruela. Haytl or
the Isthmus. The duty assigned to to San
Francisco should not be confused with that
given the gunboat Bancroft. That vessel
probably will not be able to go In com
mission until October 1 and will then also
proceed to 8an Juan, to be a station ship.
It Is expected that San Francisco will
get awsy In three or tour days.
