October la 1904. THE OMAHA ILLUSTRATED BEB. About Plays, Last wecK didn't hold murh for the peo ple of Omaha at the theater. As a result the patronage did not amount to any auch aum aa would break the sides of tha vault In which the rhanagers store their gains. It la not to he wondered at that this la the cane, for the reason haa hardly gotten Into tta fult swing yet. but tha announcement are mora and more encour aging, and each week sees new produc tions. o that In a very little while the promises made earlier In the sesaon will be redeemed as they fall due. Not only are the advance bookings for Omaha inch aa Interest the peorje who patronise the theater, hut others equally Important are botng added esch week, no that the. out look for a brilliant waaon la conatantly growing brighter. The really good playa that hava already been here are few. but those few are merely the earneat of the manager! to the public that Omaha la to have the beat that can be obtained. Several of the ambltloua attempts to ride the rlalng wave of theatrical proaperlty Into public prominence have proved lament able failures. This la generally due to the fact that the people are looking more tor substance than for mere nolae on the atige. but the comfort that some of the objectors to "syndicate" methods are ex tracting from the fact seems strained and far fetched to say the least. The fact that the "syndicate" la backing the real suc cesses of the season, and that the fallurea have been In nearly every Instance In dividual attempts that were not supported by the great managers, proves that the neerlng shouts of triumph from the "In dependents" nre born of the wish rather than of the truth. The champions of the "literary" drama have been again and gain convicted of having Itching palms, o that It Is po longer worth while to pur sue them with the charge, but It la grati fying now and then to havo some one of the men and women they so Indiscrimi nately attack turn on them. One of the latest of the vilified to speak out against the ridiculous and Insincere crusade against "commercialism" Is Richard Mansfield, aa to whose position In the world of art there can no longer be any doubt. Mr. Mans fleld'a conclusions are so nearly In line with those heretofore r-xpre.ed by The Bee that the two utterances might have been made by one. In a recent discussion of conditions In the theater. Rlchar;! Mansfield trench antly summed up with "Nobody la writ ing and very few are noting." He also paid his compliments to the commercial oondltions which are said to obtain. He aid: "I think that a great deal that la writ ten about the modern stage and Its de cadence should be taken with mnny grains of salt To commence with, the Inst accu sation that theatrical managers have In this day but one Idea, nnmcly, to make money: May I Inquire what Mr. Shakes peare or Mr. Oarrlek or Mr. Mtoready or Mr. Kemble had In vlewT If I am not very much mistaken Mr. David Oarrlek and Mr. Shakespeare were both very thrifty gentlemen, with a very alert eye for the main chance. Mr. Shakespeare and Mr. Oarrlek and all tho rest of thetn worked for money and that Is what we are working for today. Poets and painters also work for money. A good painter asks from 13,000 to 110,000, and even more, for a portrait. He doesn't give pictures away because he Is philanthropies and wants to educate people up to his pictures. Why should actors and managers be ex pected to produce playe that are of super fine literary quality, or overwhelmingly poetic, or painfully analytical, or mot tId!y disgusting, that nobody wants to seeT Mr. David Oarrlek presented at very alight cost tragedies, melodramas, high comedy, low comedy and musical farces, and he always ' presented what he thought the people would buy tickets for. Mr. Oar rlek never wittingly produced a conundrum play, 'or a play on hereditary diseases, or a play of the philosophical argument. His plays were for actors, to be acted; the act ing was of more Importance than the talk ing. It cost Mr. Oarrlek hardly anything to produce a play, and the authors re ceived the very slightest emolument. To day it would be almost impossible to sat isfy a public with a play of Mr. Shakes peare's under 110,000 at the lowest figure. A modern author receives from 7 to 15 per cent of the gross receipts, and I have paid as high as &5.000 to an author In one season, if you deduct that sum, the cost of production, salaries and railroad ex penses, there is very little left for the modern actor or manager; and yet he Is accused of commercialism and urged to de vole himself to ldylllo plays, problem lays and philosophical discussions. ' "Please don't be deceived by the people who take up this sort of thing. They are not doing It for nothing. They do it be cause they hope to make money. When you behold a man wearing long hair and habited In extraordinary garments, appear ing Irt a red flannel shirt and overalls at a dinner party, ostensibly living on cab bages' In the sight of man, and sneaking Into obscure eating houses for a boefsteuk; assuming a portentous frown, an absent minded manner and a lisp, and gazing into vacancy; when you sit in the audience' and see a man or a woman doing natural things an the stage, which may be dispensed with, as, for instance, blowing the nose as an evidence of profound emotion, or spitting, or sitting still for half an hour without saying anything, beeiwse a person under like conditions would sit still and say noth ing; of lying on the floor and bumping one's head to exhibit hysteria, etc., etc. know . that It Is all for money. The editor and the critic who say disagreeable things about me because it's spicy and people en toy reading unpleasant things about other people, do it for money. Somebody seemed to suggest that the world would be so dif ferent If the old actors were prancing about. They wouldn't be commercial; they'd be doing things for nothing, or giv ing away their enrnings to hospitals und libraries. Yot Mr. Booth acquired a hand some little fortune of $00,000 and Mr. David Oarrlek was a rich man and drove four-in-hand to Rluhmond with his royal hlghnoss, the prince of Wales, on the box. But In the days of Mr. Oarrlek, and even In the days of the Booths, there were few actors and few theaters. An actor was not ob liged to produce one or two new and ex pensive playa every year, and the people Wero satisfied to see favorite actors In favorite characters. But while productions were simple and expenses slight, the man ager and his wife never forgot to collect the tickets at the door." f'omlasr Kveata. Rich Harris' Comedians, headed by Blanche Ring, with Harry Conor featured In her suprort, will appear r.t'tlie Boyd for four nights, commencing Bund ly, with a matinee on Wednesday. They will bo seen In, "Vivians Papus," written by Leo Ditrlchsteln, author of thofe we'l known successes, "Are You a Mason?" and "All On Account of Ellaa."

In this piece Mr. Laekaye haa won the success of Ms career and has really achieved a dra matic triumph. His long run In Chicago, which Is really the home of "The Pit," was a phenomenal success. The piece will be put on here with all tha attention to detail that marked the New Tork pre sentation. John P. Slocum la one of the managers to taboo the use of the word "show girl," as designating the proudest and statlleat beauties of a musical organization. Henry W. Savage was the first New Tork man ager to abolish the word, Fred C. Whitney followed cloely after, and new Mr. Slocum announces that while his chorus girls com prise the handsomest young women he could find, he does not know them as "phow girls." Explains Mr. Slocum, "There are no 'show girls' In The Jewel of Asia,' either actually or nominally. But If there are any handsomer girls In the profession open to chorus positions than those I have I would be elated to know It, for I would soon have them under con tract." During his managerial career Mr. Slocum estimates that he haa engaged over 2,000 chorus girls. The chorus of "The Jewel of Asia" numbers sixty-five. The company will be at the Boyd next week. "The Two Little Waifs," Lincoln J. Carter's popular melodrama, will be seen at the Krug theater for two nights and one matinee, starting with a matinee to day. , The management of the Krug theater announces as the attraction for Tuesday and Wednesday matinee and night, For rester & Mlttenthal's production of Hal RelJ's rensatlonsl melodrama, "A Mid night Marriage." "At the Old Crossroads" will be pre sented at the Krug theater on next Thurs day, Friday and Saturday by Arthur C. Alston's company of players. The vaudeville bill at the Orpheum for the week beginning matinee today will abound In comedy. The top-line attraction will be Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, who have been seen here before In the legiti mate as well as In vaudeville. Their ve hicle will be a sketch entitled, "When Two Hearts Are Won." Foy and Clark roturn with a new sketch called "The Old Curiosity Shop," which Is described aa up roariously funny. ' The Three Rnmloneres will be among those to make their Initial bid for Ingratialion.. They are one of the season's European acrobatlo importations of the Orpheum circuit. Among their dar ing and difficult feats they promise some of their own origination. "The Awakening of Toys," the skit De Witt, Burns and Torrence will appear In, Is exploited aa an original creation. De Witt and Burns are a par of ludicrous comedians and acrobats who have been seen here, and MMo. Tor rence Is a winsome soubrette who has Joined them this season. Paul Barnes will contribute a monologue. Klein and Clifton do eccentric dancing and sing. Miss Klein is pretty and wears attractive costumes. "Alphonse and Gaston a'Wheel" Is tho title the Powers brothers give their com edy bicycle act. They counterpart the unique actions and makeup of the ultra polite tramp characters to rouse the rls- Music and Musical Notes The giving of a "cup of cold water" la a very simple thing, and yet how refresh ing It Is in the dust and turmoil of a busy life. It Is tha blessed privilege of the musical crltio of The Bee to have a garrison of friends who are always doing something pleasant for him, and letters, with clip pings enclosed, como from many friends who are Interested in the development of the artistic side of human nature. These clippings are Invariably upon pome subject in connection with music, and I am over come with the feeling that I have be on somewhat selfish in that I have kept these things largely to myself. In future I shall try to reprint some of the things which have cheered mo and have given me much Joy. And so I will begin. H;rs Is a poem which I had never seen before and which you will enjoy If you have never read It; and If you have It Will bear a special reading at this time. A friend sends It to me from out In the state i A nightingale made a mistake; She sang a few notes out of tune: Her heuri was ready to break, , And she hid away from the moan. She wrung her claws, poor thing! ' But was far too proud to weep; She tucked her head under her wing, And pretended to be asleepi "Oh. Nightingale," cooed a dove, "Oh, Nightingale, what's the uscT You bird of beauty and love, Why behave like a goes? "Don't skulk away from our aight Like common, contemptible fowl: You bird of Joy and delight. Why behave like an owl? "Only think of all you have done; Only think of all you can do; A false note la really fun From Buch a bird as you. "Lirt up your proud little crest, Open your musical beak; Other birds have to do their best; on need only to apeak." The nightingale shyly tcok Her head from under her wing. And, giving the dove a look, straightway began to slug. There was never a bird could pass: The night was divinely c..lm, And the people stood on the grass To hear that wonderful psalm. The nightingale did not care, She only cang to the skies; Her song ascended there, And there she fixed her eyes. The people that stood below She knew but little about: And this etory's a moral, I know. If you'll try to find It out. i Thoae llne-of-t he-heart were written by that Interesting English poetess and novel ist, Jean Ingelow, who wae born at Bos ton. Lincolnshire, f England, In 1830, and died at Kensington in 1897, at the age of 67. The Catholic choirs in this country are particularly exercised Just now over tho action of the present pope In connection with music. But there is no reason for gloomy prognostications. His hollntss Pope Pius X. Is sounding an alarm which 'was very much needed. I number among my friend, a score or so of Catholic priests, and some of them have been, and are, men whom I specially cherish, and whoae friendship Is solid and lasting. With many of them I have talkiM upon this church muslo question, and with one consent, they unl e In faying that whlli there may be difficulties In the w;iy Ihe e Is no doubt whatever but that the church Is sorely in need of Just what the pope urges, namely, a return to the mualo of true devotion and plain altnpliclty. He has spoken with a trumpet voice and his ap peal will be listened to and answered by all good lovrra of real, genuine church murlc, of wlmUoevor faltu or creed or persuasion they may be. It la to be hoped that the Protestant churches will to a large degree follow the example of Rome In the matter. Ignorance of what church music la, and the "clr- CUPlng" of Church musical evnnta mni flia Introduction Of mualivil nnveltlea anil "nol .

Howard Thurston, the magician, who Is a nephew of former Senator Thurston, Is booked at the Orpheum for the week com mencing Sunday, Octtber 21 Mrs. Talrlck Campbell has opened her American season with the Sartlou play, "The Korreress," done Into English, and has scored with It at the New Amsterdam. Ralph Stewart Is doing a big business on the Pacific coaM with "liy Right of Sword." He was In Portland lsst week. He will Work east along the Northern Pa- ciflo. Joe Cawthorne. who Is playing the lead ing part in "Mother Goose," has been prom ised by Klaw Erlanger that he will he starred next season in an appropriate vehicle. Henrv Miller and his company reached Broadway with "Joseph Entangled" Inst week and received the same reception that has been his share all the way from the Paolflc coast Forbes Robinson has cabled his Amer ican managers, Messre. Klaw Erlanger, that when he returns to America In Jan uary he will bring with him a new play by Henry V. Emond. Otis Skinner was very well received on his entrance to New Tork with "The Har vester." The play and the company were both much praised by the press and the engagement bids fair to be a success. David Warfleld has not made the an ticipated hit at the Belasco in "The Muslo Master." but the business continues good. It Is another evidence that Mr. Belasco's public utterances are not an exaot guide to hla private opinions. Viola Allen's tour Is but two weeks old and yet she is aasured of success. Her re vival of "The Winter's Tale" was very well received in Washington, where ehe opened, and last week In Philadelphia she was tiuch praised by the papers. The Woodward Burgess company, which played at the Boyd all last week, was busv rehearsing "The Lost Paradise, which will be presented at Denver this) week Instead of ' Under Two Flags." Man ager Long haa been giving the matter his personal attention and looks for a fine per formance. Fritsl Scheff will play limited engage ments In Philadelphia and Boaton before making her New York debut In Charles B. Dllllngham'a latest production, "The Two Roaes." at tho Broadway theater. Miss Scheff's opening In the,metropol!e Is dated for November 21. The success of "The Two Roses," which Mr. Dillingham has styled a comedy opera, has been most pronounced. ' During her theatrical career Lulu Glaser, tho star In Charles B. Dillingham's produc tion of "A Madcap Princess," has reoelved many unusual requests from persons she has never seen, but the request that Is rarest of all came from a Baltimore woman the other doy. This woman, who had never been closer to Miss Glaser than the third row of the family circle, wanted a diamond ring. A diamond ring, that's all! Th recent engagement of Frank Daniels at Salt Lake City was made an event of local Importance. Sallie Fisher, Mr. Daniels' leading woman, was reared in Salt Lake City and h8r friends there accorded her a royal welcome when she appeared In Charles B. Dillingham's production of "The Office Boy." It Is a matter worthy of note that every greenhouse In and near Salt Lake City was divested of Its ready stock on the opening day of the Daniels engage ment Their loud uplifted angel-trumpets blow. And the cherubic host in thousand quires. Touch their Immortal harps of golden wires, With those Just spirits that wear victorious palms. Hymns devout and holy psalms Singing everlastingly." . The "Music of the Church" has been relegated too long to the backgraund, be cause of some flimsy excuse; and ginger bread trivialities have been introduced by tho professional quartett, to whom haa been delegated the high office of music worship, so that the congregation might enjoy (with consciousness of having paid for It) some sentlm'cnal ballads of a reli gious nature, and not be disturbed In its self-complacent serenity, by being obliged to raise a voice Itself, In the worship of ,God. It Is high time that the church should, in its music, become ' churchly again, and drop the concert music. But I am only saying poorly what the head of the Catholic church on earth has said in no uncertain tones, and with all the authority, of the ancient church of Rome behlrtd him: : In a recent Interview the pope said: "I know the difficulties that beset my pro- fiosed restoration of the Gregorian chant n Catholic churches. I know the resist ance which will be offered. I am aware that driving dance and opera music out of the churches to restore the primitive pur ity of chanting will not be the work of a day. However, I shall secure obedience: 1 like Hach and tho great symphonies and the operatic masterpieces, but I wish opera to be confined to the theaters. Such music Is admirable In Its place, which Is not in a church. I remember one day celebrating mass when I heard a voice singing 'MIra, 0 Norma.' " That was bad enough, but the pope could have heard much worse at some of the recent Easter services in this country. Many of the programs read like thoae of a Sunday night sacred concert In New York, than which, as everyone knows, there are few things less sacred. (The above quotation Is from the "Choir Journal" of a recent Issue.) Among some of the rules which have been laid down are these: That tho music be such aa not to attract too much to Itself ihe at ten' Ion of the hear eis, ao as to become a source of distrac tion from tho divine service to which it must be entirely subservient as an aid to devotion. Adaptations of Latin words to songs, arias, or conoerted plecea borrowed from 1 -:era or other secular sources, are to be eliminated. The use of a music' whose style in either tl.-i vocal part or the accompaniment la :urgestive of the concert or the theater, is to be eliminated. These are only a few of tho points laid down, and they are reprinted here because of their general applicability to all churches. Later on, It may be deemed advisable, for tho information of those who would like to know, to reprint the findings of the committee which has Issued Its statement on the requirements of tho pope, and of which the foregoing is a very small part. J. 8. Duss, the bandmaster, was disturbed in his office by the entrance of a man who wished a position In tho orchestra. Mr. Duss was In need of men, but when the surrounding air became charged with the THE SAURET TRIO OF THE CHICAGO MUSICAL COLLEGE ir Inolufllug Emile Rauret, th world-renowned French violinist; Rudolph tinnz, pianist, formerly of Berlin, and Bruno Eteludel, solo vlocclllst of tho Clilongo orchestra, will give a GRAND CONCERT Inaugurating the series of Concerts under the auspices of the OMAHA CONCERT PROMOTERS At First Conr relational Church, Monday Evening, October 24, Tickets on salo at A.

(Special Cablegram to The Bee.) Although the summer has been almost unprecedented for glorious Bun shine and absence of rain, London shop keepers, hotel proprietors and others de clare that they have had a poor season. "It was too hot to wear clothes," said a representative of a firm of well known tail ors and dressmakers, whose premises are usually filled with the wealthiest of Amer ican and continental visitors. "The hot weather kept the best' class of people away. They went to their own watering places rather than stand the fatigue of long Jour neys. The people who came over In spite of the heat, have not been the people who spend money freely." Other west end shopkeepers were also gloomy, complaining not bo muoh of the scarcity of visitors as of the tightness of money. "Instead of champagne people drink whirky-and-soda and beer," said the manager of one of the large hotels. "The St. Louis exhibition and the presi dential election robbed us of many of our best American clients. There has conse quently been much bargaining for rooms, and the season has been far from a good one." The manager added that he knew of one large hotel the profit of which Was about 50,000 less than last year. The manager of the Carlton hotel re ported an average season. "There has been a considerable falling off," he re marked, "In the number of Russian visi tors, but visitors from .France and Ger many are increasing every year." At the Savoy hotel, however, the summer season has been one of the best on record. "The Savoy has never known a season to compare with It," said the manager. "Thero has hardly been a day when the hotel has not been full," President Attends Wedding. WASHINGTON, Oct. 16. President Roosevelt, accompanied by Mrs. Boose velt.
