whatever la available, until the steady now
of "good stuff" Is established. In the mean
time, the season for the smaller tons
gets under way In good time, and the book
ing agencies feel that they have done the
right thing for everybody. Just at present
vnly a few of the really big things have
begun activities for the winter. Nearly all
f the great stars are still to open their
seasons. Bo the dim light that now Illu
mines the theatrical world is but the har
binger of the dawn,' and the glory of the
promised brilliance Is still to come.
The only production of last week that Is
worthy of note is the revival of "As You
Like It," by ML'S Crosman and company at
the Manhattan theater, New York. Both
Mr. Winter of the Tribune and Mr. Corbln
of the Times give Jtllss Crosmun much
praise for her Impersonation of Rosalind.
"Miss Crorman, Indeed, does not conquer by
the afTlu'nt, superb potentiality of genius,"
ays Mr. Winter, "but Mi's Crusman brings
to Koalind a winning personality, a joy
ous temperament, abundant buoyancy of
ajmal spirits, graceful vivacity of action,
special talent for mischievous banter, the
lovely 'ardor of a kind, earnest, sweet
woman, and, as to methods of expression,
an Intelligent If somewhat extravagant
style." Miss Crosman is one of the rval
tars of the American stage In whose suc
cess Omaha feels a degree of Interest that
borders on the personal. She Is a Nebras
kan by birth, and many of her girlhood
years were spent In Omaha,, where h 'T
father. Major Cro.iman, was stationed with
his regiment. Her flight has not been me
teoric, but she has won her distinction by
bard work, and easily merits all the suo
Cess that can comealo her.
scenic display and the company Is said to
carry a number of massive and beautiful
stage settings. The supporting compsny,
if press notices are accurate. Is a well
balanced one, and the play Is devoid of
sensational riot and clap trap effect.

'The Princess Chic." which will be seen
t the Krug shortly. Is one of the few mod
ern musical plays which holds Its laurels In-
aepennentiy or star or company. The
libretto Is by Kirk l.a Shelle. and many of
he lyrics It contains are conceded to have
ilgh noetic value. The score wes com
posed by Julian Edwards, and the whole Is
repeating this season its success of the
past.
Mrs. Lungtry also opened her season last
Monday night in New York, presenting
"Mrs. Deerlng's Divorce," at the Bavoy.
For those who have contended that the
Jersey Lily had passed her xenith the fol
lowing comment by Mr. Winter of the Trib
une may contain some Information:
Mrs. Langtry made her re-entrance last
night at the oavuy theater, prexenting a
frankly farcical comedy called ' Mrs. Deer
Ing s Divorce," and giving a brisk, impetu
ous, demure, charming performance of Us
chief part. The play u ot light calibre, but
It is neatly constructed and smoothly writ
ten, and it possesses the aitractivo merit of
comical situation. Mrs. Langtry's charm
as an actress long since conspicuously
manifested and often recognlred is a
blending of sweetness of temperament with
elegance of manner, and this unarm per
vades her present performuueu. The pub
lic gsln from her acting, in this Instance,
Is amusement. Tba actress cleverly repre
sents a volatile, capricious, merry, careitss,
light-hearted woman, of the lashlonuble or
der, who becomes Involved In circumstances
of comic perplexity, whose conduct aroua.a
a tranxlent Interest, whose experience
rauses laughter, and whose personality at
first seemingly superficial and trivial grad
ually wins upon sympathetic appreciation,
through the development of good fellowship
and good feeling.
Coming Events.
"On. night" and popular prices will b
the rule at the Boyd theater during the
coming week, and a wide variety of enter
tainment will be offered. First on the list
comes the West Minstrels, under the man
agement of Banford B. Rlcaby. This com
pany will present a departure from the
stereotyped methods of minstrelsy, and
give a show that Is pronounced "better
than ever" by those who have seen It.' As
usual Mr. Rlcaby has some fifty members
in the company, and although a few of the
favorites of the organisation are to be
again-seen In the front, the acquisition ot
some new and clever talent. In conjunc
tion with a lot of new and novel features,
entitles the company to claim the verllct as
above, "better than ever." The engage
ment Is for a matinee and evening per
formance Sunday only.
On Monday night comes for one per
formance "The Land O' Cotton," Junker
& Corcoran's play of southern life, with
scenery and novel effects, well defined
story, unique characters and carefully
elected company. The cast is large.
On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and
Wednesday matinee the attraction will be
"Reuben In New York," a musical farce
comedy abounding In clever- comedians,
pretty girls, gorgeous costumes, startling
cenlc effects, catchy music and exquisite
tag pictures, an amalgamation of beauty,
wit and melody.
Chauncey Olcott cornea on Thursday even
ing for one performance, presenting for
the first time in thU city a dramatization
made expressly for hlra of Mrs. B. M.
Croker's widely read novel, entitled "Ter
ence' by Mrs. . Edmund . Nash Morgan.
The play la in four acts; time, present.
The scenes are located at Pally-bay, Bhule
and Dublin, Irelund. Mr. Olcott has writ
ten and composed, four new songs for his
new play. . .
Lawrence Russell's oddly titled rural
comedy, "The Punkln Huaker," will be the
attraction at the Krug for the first half
of the week, beginning with the matinee
today. This Is the first season of "The
Punkln' Husker," and It Is reported as a
success In the eastern cities where It has
been seen. Among the members of the
cast are numbered some of the best known
theatrical performers of America. Horace
Newman, tho understudy and later the
successor to Bol Smith Russell, plays the
title role, Jim Daniels; Emma Marie Davis,
formerly with William Olilette and other
Frohman attractions, is the Alice Thacher;
L. B. D Kalb, another Frohman actor.

Oeorge Morrison, Marie Preston and other
representatives performers go to make up

Thursday night, with a matinee Saturday,
the Krug offers Nettle DeCoursey and her
company In the pastoral play. An Arphan's

seen here In the Hoyt farce comedies. Is
said to be meeting with grest success In
fcer latest venture, the play affording her
opportunities for strong dramatic effort
as well as the merry singing and dancing
that she followed In the Hoyt plnys. "An

Just one week from today, on Sunday,
September 20, the Orpheum will begin Its
sixth season as "Omaha's society vaude
ville theater." The coxy play house is still
In the hands of a force of decorators and
mechanics. By Saturday they.wlU have
completed the work which has kept them
engaged" for the past four weeks, and while
tho prevailing scheme of coloring, cream
and green, has not been Interfered with,
the deepening of tints In the process of
retouching has added brightness and will
effect a fresh appearance. For the opening
the management promises a bill of strong
merit and diversified so as to appeal to
varied tastes. The bookings for the season
will Include very many features that have
never been seen here. This will be
especially true of foreign acts, for Presi
dent Myerfleld of the Orpheum Circuit com
pany spent six months In Europe and
personally devoted much time In search ef
novelties. A valuable addition to the
circuit this season will be the new Orpheum
theater at Denver, which Is costing up
wards of $100,000 to construct. Among
other cities In which an Orpheum house
may be an amusement fixture In the near
future are St. Joseph and Memphis.
These additions to the circuit are of much
benefit In the matter of booking, for the
performers can be given more time and
thus many that are In great demand are
Induced to come west. Tomorrow morning
at a. m. the box office will be opened
for the sale of seats which can always be
reserved a week In advance and patrons
desiring to secure certain seats for a
particular night each week can have them
held as formerly. As on former seasons
preformances will be given. every evening,
with matinees on Thursdays, Saturdays and
Sundays.
The rebooking at the Boyd for the week
of September 28, with matinees on Wednes
day and Saturday, of Klaw ft Erlang-er's
production of "Ben Hur" Is In a measure
a tribute to Omaha. The success
"Ben Hur" enjoyed here last sea
son, was- far beyond anything the
management had hoped for., Th box office.
returns equaled the London. New York.
Chicago and Boston receipts. Thousands
were unable to. gain admission to the
theater and the greater portion of the dis
appointed sent letters to Mr. Burgess re.
questing the rebooking of "Ben Hur" at
an early date. This he was successful In
doing when he placed his weight of evl
denes on Klaw & Erlanger's desk In their
Now York office.
The book was published m 1SS0, but It
did not attract much attention for two
years. Indeed,' the copies sold during the
first two years of Its. existence did not
number 2.S00 In all. But each reader be
came a warm friend and It was not long
before the publishers had all they could do
to keep up with the demand, so that It Is
now estimated that more than 6,000,000
people have read "Ben Hur." It has been
translated Into all the modern languages
and Is as familiar abroad as It Is In this
country. General Wallace considered
there werS Insurmountable difficulties In
the way of any dramatic presentation.
It was not until Klaw & Erlanger sub
mitted the outline of thalr project that
the general was Interested. He examined
and studied It with exceeding care and
finally gave his enthusiastic consent. The
personality ot the Savior Is nowhere rep
presented In the acting version of "Ben
Hur." References to Him are made, but
with the greatest reverence and the most
absolute respect. In the scene of the heal
Ing of the lepers on Mount Olivet, He li
not visible, but His presence is indicated
by light of singular beauty.
I received an announcement from a local
musician this week. In writing. In letter
form. In unsealed envelope and with a

postage due. The Bee does not care a

the gentle hint that the writer did not

not.

MUSIC AND MUSICIANS
Yesterday I had the pleasure of hearing
the singing ot Miss Louise Ormsby, a
Central Cityan, who has been abroad for
a number of years studying vocal work
and works. I use the word pleasure ad
visedly, for despite a few things, Miss
Ormsby Is a delightful singer. Her voice
is a dramatic soprano with a ring and a
swing to it that Is. captivating. Her choice
ot work has been a wise one. . She has
found her mission, and the results will
follow.
Miss Ormsby sang, amongst other things,
the Elizabeth aria "Dlch, theure Halle,"
from "Tannhauser," with dramatic In
terpretation and splendid tone. Her voice
seems especially suited to the Wagnerian
demands. Bhe shows genuine talent, the
"feu sacre!" perhaps, and certainly a
straightforward, honest artistic effort to
do her work right She appeals to one at
once. .
Miss Ormsby does so much that Is good
that It seems a pity that she has suc
cumbed (to a degree only, thank heaven)
to that bad habit, "chest falling and audi
ble breathing." 8he has none of the old-
fashioned shoulder-raising, "hydraulic"
breathing which la, alas, too prevalent,
and will continue to be while cowardly
critics are too craven to call attention
to It because the singer is the well known
So- and So.
But why Mme. Marches!, who writes
books and articles and things on singing,
and loves her dear, darling pupils -so, oh,
so much, and teaches things about singing,
why she should let a pupil go out of her
studio with a breathing method which
would evoke criticism from the youngest
well-trained pupil why she should do this,
I say. Is past artistic comprehension.
is It possible that Marches! does not
but, no!. Perish the thought.-
And now, a word to the musicians. The
muslo column of The" Bee is edited and
published at The Bee office on Saturday
mornings. . '' '
Musicians having notices which they wish
printed free of charge will be sure of hav
ing their notices appear by sending them
to The Bee office by Friday afternoon.
The office of the musical critic of The Bee
Is in The Bee building, not in Mr. Kelly's
studio, nor at his residence.
Announcements received - over the tele
phone will not be printed. All communica
tions must be sent to The Bee office in
writing.
Omaha can now boast of another vested

LONDON, Sept 12.-(New York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) Although It
seems a farce, the fact remains that the
choice of Plus X to the papacy has aroused
even greater Interest In Mrs. Craigle's fine
play, "The Blshop's Move." The wise the
atrical critics declared that by no possl
blllty could a cardinal behave as does the
bishop of Ranee In the play. Yet, In many
respects, John Oliver Hobbs' bishop re
sembles the present pope, who la a great
musician. His holiness frequently mended
organs In Venice where, by the way, Mrs.
Cralgie saw the printing press she Intro
duced In the first art of her play while the
democratic utterances of tb bishop o
Ranee might have been drawn entirely
from his holiness. Americana should be
