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.

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.

Fay made her debut on the stage in Omaha forty years ago. Tho theater was the old courthouse, tne staga was the judge's platform, the curtain was a clean white oea sheet on. a roller, ana the shiftless scenery was of unbleached cotton cloth.

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 ter by the Fenls Stock company for the first half of the week, beginning this evening.

(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 pital for medical treatment What Omaha Clergymen Have to Say o th New York Experiment. OPINION DIVIDED ON ITS EXPEDIENCY Some lay It Will B of Good Service, a ad Others Insist that Ualy Fvll Cast Com from It. Omaha ministers have been Interested In th unusual spectacle of a minister of th gospel dedicating a aaloon. The re markable action of Bishop Potter In New York has elicited some comment Rev. M. P. Dowllng, president of Creigh ton university, said: "It Is a good thing; a step In the right direction. The laboring man In the city has but little means of enjoyment. The saloon is the laboring man's club. Owing to his general poverty and oftentimes un pleasant domestic environment, h Is driven to the saloon, not necessarily to dissipate, but for recreation and change from more unpleasant surroundings. I do not wish to condone the drink habit nor apologise for it But during many years I have been engaged In religious work and particularly when In charge of a Urga parish In Chi cago, I cat.ie to look at the saloon in u different light.

Address t:iACflia ftS UlAlm W m.immnmm - -3r t has only the saloon. With such an'estab lishment aa Bishop Potter and his co 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." Dr. Smith's Position. Rev. E. Coruble Bmith. tnrough th col umns of The Guidon, edited by him as pastor of the First Methodist church, re flects his views on the subject at som length. Here are some xtrscts: , The "old village tavern," where Eng land s worklnginen have becom ao gener ally besotted. V would humbly auttg-st that If a mau bus undertaken the respon sibility of live children he would better b at home helping hla overworked wit to endure th Imposition of such u family by on who can furnish but two rooms for their housing.

Many senators and representatives have promised to attend and addresa the con gress on the live questions of the day. The question of a department of mine and mining and the appointment of a mem ber of the president's cabinet will come up. The mining Interests of the United States have long felt the need of such a depart ment and now propose to take some active measures toward that end. The question of a permanent headquarter for the con gress will come up. Thnt Is the selection of some city to build a permanent home for the congress to assemble In every year, to cost not less than $150,000 or more and to belong to the miners of the United States. E. H.

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.

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.
