THE OMAITA DAILY HEE: SUNDAY, AUOURT 7, 1004.
ABOUT FLAYS, PLAYERS AND PLAYHOUSES
Owing to the continuation of th rWs
nnt weather and the steady attendanr.
th managers of the Ferris Summer Stork
company and Manager Burgeaa of tba
Uoyd decided to continue the engagement
for one mora week. Two mora playa will
be offered by thin popular organization at
the Boyd thle week, and then tha curtain
will be rung down on Ita long atr.y. Ita
aeaaon ha been a moat tuccsssftl one,
and the only reason for cloning la that Ita
member need a little rent befora going
on the road for the long winter ivason.
Following the Ferrla company the Wood
ward Stock company, which has been
playing at the Auditorium In Kansas City,
will come to Omaha for a week, presenting
two plsys. Thla engngement will bring the
autnmer season to an tnd, and the winter
season will begin, aa announced, on the
evening of Sunday, August XL
Messrs. Hudson V Judnh announce that
tbelr houee, ? Krug, will open for the
winter eenaoi. n the evening of Sunday,
August 14. Tha opening bill will be "The
Flaming Arrow," one of Lincoln J. Carter-
playa. No list of bookings for tha Benson
will ba given out, but It la the Intention
of tba managing firm to conduct tha bouse,
ae last season, on the basla of popular
prices and with attractions calculated to
please its patrons. The house la now be.
fng renovated for the season.
Manager Burgess left last night for New
York, where he will compu te final arrange
ments for his winter list of attractions,
and Is of the opinion that he will be able
to announce next Sunday the leading plays
and players who will be seen at the Boyd
during the coming winter. From his corre
spondence he feels confident that hli the
ater will have the usual tine line of attrac
tions during the winter, yet he goea to
1 New York to consult personally with the
booking agents before giving out tha list.
Any managerial trepidation about taking
the plunge Into the uncertalntlea of the
approaching season seems to have vanished
as the time for opening comes nearer, and
the big ones are getting ready with a
feverish anxiety for the time to start. Dis

On of the prettiest temperance stories
ver written was T. 8. Arthur's "Ten
Nights In a Barroom." and Its drsmatlza
tlon has been almost as much of a factor
In th causo of temperance as "Uncle
Tom's Cabin" was In the anti-slavory cru
sade. Aside from this phase, the play Is
a, strong one, built on good old-fashioned
lines, and depends more on Its inc'dmt
and dramatic action than on Ita scenery
to secure and hold attention. The devel
opment of the plot, the climax and the
final working out of the, situation are all
correct, and, even thotigty melodramatic at
times the Interest In the story Is sus
tained well to the very end. This good
old play will be given at the Boyd thea

first half of the week, beginning this
evening. Joe Morgan, tho village drunk

DANGER IN SUBMARINE BOAT
Freeh Final Oa Fixed for Sea Will
Kt RIs 1st Fresh
Waters.
PARIS, Aug. 6. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) The facts have just been made
publlo of an exciting experience which be
fell the crew of a French submarine of the
Morse type while carrying out maneuvers
a short while ago In the neighborhood of
Havre.
The little vessel entered the estuary of
th Seine and proceeded some distance up
tho river. Then an attempt was made to
bring It to the surface, but It failed to
rise.
Th fact that specific gravity of fresh
wattr was loss than that of sea water had
been 'overlooked, and for a moment thor
was consternation aboard, as the atmos
phere had become very oppressive.
For twenty minutes efforts were made to
bring th boat to the surface, but without
avail, and the position became mor seri
ous when several of the crew fainted owing
to th foulness of the air.
To make matters worse, the submarine,
Instead of rising, showed signs of settling
on th river bed and becoming fixed there.
Th officer in command at length perceiv
ing the cause of the trouble, made for the
opi sea at full speed. All the while the
men. who were suffering considerably, be
haved admirably.
Shortly after they had the satisfaction of
rioting that their position was improving,
and that the boat was gradually rising as
they entered the denser water, and, finally,
they reached the surface.
The crew were by this time almost over
come, but, with the exception of three,
they culckly recovered on reaching th
fresh air. The three In question were so
til that they had to be removed to a hos

religionists have established or dedicated
and they have abundant means to carry It
out It can be governed and Its patrons
repressed from excesses. It Is a good thing
In the fact that It will get people to think
ing of this matter in a more practical way
If It Is a success In New York a similar
movement may be Inaugurated ln Omaha
and a better one be established bere. The
movement Is a practical undertaking. At
all events It will stimulate public interest
ln the question of the saloon. In this
modern day the temperance question Is
assuming a practical phase. The employers
of men are doing more for the cause of
temperance than th agitators have done
hitherto or will ever be able to do."
Will Work Only Evil,
"I take no stock In It whatever; I think
no good can come from it, but much evil,"
said Rev. Dr. Clyde Clay Clssell, pastor
of th Hanscom Park Methodist church, on
the Bishop Potter enterprise. "It Is just
fad that soon will wear off. I believe
It Is a bad thing to have a place where
men will drink at all. The efforts and time
of the church and ministry had better be
employed ln trying to close such places.
rather than open them. Tou cannot combat
the lower order of saloons In any such way.
Th men who can drink and leave It alone,
Just as they .please, will do that a great
deal better without the Potter saloon than
with It. Then there Is the danger of start
ing new drinkers. If this place is to be
one of congenial and attractive environ
ment, why, of course, It Is natural to sup
pose men who would not visit the lower
saloon will go to this new dram shop.
What fort If they are not already drink
ers, how long will It be before they are
ln such a place? How are you going to
govern or restrict the human appetite"
Was that ever done by any means ln any
ge? The most temperate man, the strong
est charatcer, cannot with Impunity tamper
with a. thing as dangerous aa drink, be It
dispensed in Bishop Potter' dram shop or
the lowest hovel. Bo far as the laboring
man, whom this place Is designed to help,
Is concerned, I don't believe he will go near
it. I would not favor establishing such a
place ln Omaha.
"I should Ilk to have th defenders of
this system show me where the line is to
be drawn between the drinkers of liquor
there and any other saloon. It la a notable
fact, on of record, that some of the big
gest corporations today positively refuse
to employ men who drink. Suppose Bishop
Potter's saloons become general, must
theso corporations then modify their rule
and say 'We will employ no men who ,
drink ln any saloon not dedicated by the I
ministry and sanctioned by the church of
God?' What a spectacle! I don't think
the church will take It up. The Idea of
elp Is all right, but the plan is all wrong,"
Thinks It Will Fail.
Rev, John Williams, rector of St. Bar
nabas Episcopal church, on of th most
prominent Episcopal clergymen ot Omaha,
has this to say on his eminent church
man's position and the saloon:
I do not . condemn the principle, but I
doubt the success of the enterprise. There
Is no question but that some action must
be taken by the churjh, or at least by the
Christian people of this nation, but I doubt
that this Is the panacea. I rather believe
the several states should enact their own
taws to regulate the liquor traffic, such as
South Carolina did. A dispensary law of
that character would be a good thing, I
think. I can see several objections to the
kind of saloons Bishop Potter has dedi
cated. First, It Is one against thousands
of the old type and will nut, I believe, b
able to draw the men It seeks ta help away
from the old places. I think the tendency
will be for these men to hold aloof from
this place and continue to patronize th old
ones. Of course, it will b argued tUat
others of the kind could bo established,
but X doubt if enough would be, for I
think the f"t ones would fall of th neces
sary support. Then the worst objection I
so Is that It will only be a question of
Um until the rougher element, the regular
saloon men, will have control of this place
and all of its kind. So I say Its success
seems vary doubtful to rue."

for congress. By his matchless eloquence
he engaged the attention of ail the people

education went on through two presidential
campaigns. Is theie uiiy one ln tnla coun
try so insane that they believe that every
man of the 6,500,000 men who voted for

and upon which depends the perpetuity
of the republic?

GEORGETOWN, (British Guiana). Aug.
6. (Special Cablegram to The Bee.) The
commissioners who have Just completed
the demarkatlon of the boundary between
British Guiana and Venesuela have had
some strange experiences.
At Fortama they fell ln with an In
(II an chief named Jeremiah who conducted
stood by Bryan, a great plf nty of them will
Btand by the guns of their principles so
that there will be produced In this country
next November a political cataclysm that
will demonstrate to the 'conservative'
democracy that they cannot Hop B.OK'.iwO
voters at will. These men who make such
loud boasts that they are 'sune and safe'
apparently have not an Inkling of the in
sanity of their proposition and. their wild
prediction that there will be a democratic
tidal wave and that It Is 'due this year.'
"Whv can't the populists see some hope
ln President Roosevelt?" I asked.
Populists Prefer Roosevelt.
"As between Roosevelt and Parker, we
of course think more of Rooaevolt, but we
have no use for the republican party; Its
principles ore antagonistic to the Interest
of the people and we have no more uso
for that party than we havo for the demo
cratic party as It stands today. We shall
In the future seek fusion with no party.
We will nominate our own ticket, both
national and state, and all either of ths
old parties need do Is to upprove at their
conventions ln tickets we nominate. We
will be glad to get all the support we can,
of course, but they In the future must
come to us." ,
It Is said ln Lincoln, on very good au
thority, that some 20,000 subscribers to the
Commoner had discontinued their paper
because Mr. Bryan announced that he
Hyas priest, robed himself ln some ancient
European garments, and took up his posi
tion at the. east end of the building facing
th worshippers, who air knelt devoutly.
The men occupied one aide of the church
and tho women and children the other.
The worshippers, unlike their Driest, were
entirely nude.
The service consisted of counting from
one to ten, and saying the alphabet ln
English, each being recited first , by ths
priest, and then by the congregation.
I?oth having been gone through ten times,
the priest ran through a lot of names,
among which Jesus Christ and Ood fre
quently occurred, the congregation rever
ently repeating them also.
Jeremiah cannot . read or write, and
teaches the people nothing more than this
curious ritual; but. evidently he has con
siderable authority over hla people, which j
he wields for good.
