WORRIES ABOUT STORIES TOLO OF HER
AT THE PLAY HOUSES.
Ai(iimrl to Fftcr Woman by Whom
She tVas Employed on Acroanl
of Reports Carried to
Her Mistress.
Ashamed to fiioe her mistress after stories
r fleeting on her character had b en told,
Marie fihean, a pretty 10-year-old nursc
glrl In tlie family of Charles F. flchwngT,
bought a revolver and ehot herself.
It was about i:t Thursday nftornoon thnt
Mnrje nppegred at a rooming house nt 3"t
North Sixteenth street and asked the clerh,
Ous Hmith, for a room. She told him she wa.s
very tired and Wanted a place to rest. She
carried nothing but a small handbag. From
thin Khe took a coin and pnld him and he
showed her to a room. A few minutes later
two shots wore hmrd and Mrs. Smith, hur
rying up st.-ilrs and rushing Into the room,
found the girl lying on the floor with a
hole In her temple and one hand clutehlrg
a revolver. Mrs. Smith railed the police and
the coroner. The officers examined thu
body and decided that the girl had died nl
mont lnslnntiy. She had phot herself
through the heart and Font another bullet
through he r brain from the right -temple
to the lift. The body wad taken to the
undernhing rooms of linilley at I)orrance,
and her father, William Bhean, who lives
at lHfrf Noith Twenty-sixth street, was noti
fied. Mario hud not been home since one day
seven weeks ago, when she had a disagree
ment with her father, who said he intended
to disown her because she wan Incorrigible.
She ha,d been working for Mr. nnd Mrs.
Sehwuger for some time, taking care of
their rhlld. and she went to live with
them at iii'8 Poppleton avenue. Mrs. Schwa
ger said she had no fault to find with
Marie, except that she wanted to stay out
nights. She had lately forbidden her to
go out In the evening. Thursday afternoon
Marie told her she wrta going down town to
do some shopping. The next she heard of
Marie was her death.
Tells Troubles to n Friend,
At the Auditorium, Marie's friend, Agnes
Fleming, was skating. She hnd often made
a confidante of Agnes, nnd she went this
time to tell her of trouble that had over
taken her.
"I am not going home any more," she
said to Agnes. Mrs. Schw.iger's house
was home to her and she often said It
was so much better than any home she
had ever known. "I am not going home
any more because I am ashamed to see
Mrs. Schwager. 8ho has been a mother
to mo and I have thought so much of her
opinion that I have been afraid to face
her whenever she has learned of my mis
deeds. I have tried so hard to he good
and I have succeeded pretty well lately.
"It Is the lies they tell atiout me that
makes her think 111 of me. I know that I
am wild nnd do somo wrong things, but
none very bad. There is Just enough truth
In the things they tell that I have to ad
mit part of it, and Mrs. Schwager be
lieves the rest. Thnt is what hurts me
so. If she would only believe in me I
wouldn't rare for the rest.
"O, Agnes, I am going to kill nyself.
A woman who hates me has told a lot
of things about me today and I'll not go
back home. .Death will be a sweet rest
from, my trouble. Won't you lend me $2,
Agnes?"
She had $3 and though she needed $3
more, to buy , a, revolver, but she did not
tell this to her friend. Agnes tried to
oothe her by telling her things might
not be so bad as she thought, but she re
fused to be comforted. Where she got a
loan her friend does not know, but sha
evidently did get one, for she secured the
weapon and had J1.90 left in her purse
when the b.idy T'as found.
"I did not think sne would do It," said
Agnes Fleming, "for I have heard so many
girls sny the same things about killing
themselves."
When leaving the Auditorium, Marie said
to a young man of her acquaintance:
"Ooodbye, for I am never coming back,
but don't say anything to Agnes."
A coroner's Jury will hold an inquest
over the body at 10 o'clock this morning.

In "Mistress Nell" Mr. llazleton has
given us an attractive and In some regards
charming picture of certain characters of
a most romantic page In English history. If
so be thBt now our cavalier blood surges a
little less hotly through our systems, so
are our Puritans a little less stiff In knees
and neck, and the deeper perspective gives
us all a tietter view of some of the. things
that happened In that far away day of
the seventeenth century. At any rate, iw,
Hazleton has taken some of the men and
women of that day and sets them before
us, animating them with some very human
Impulses, -and causing them to talk and act
much as men and women might reasonably
be expected to. He has mercifully re
fralned from indulgence in either epigram
or sermon, but contents himself with giv
ing to each character the native wit that
Is his or her due, and sets one over against
another In a battle of wit and love. The
play fairly sparkles from an end to end
with the bright fencing of tongues at
tuned to clever phrases, and Is brilliant at
times with the delicious humor of Its situa
tions and episodes. It hasn't a dull lino
in It, but, on the contrary, fairly teems
with bright and merry remarks that give
to waiting laughter the fillip that makes
tho humor of the words all the more en
joyable. And the speeches are In the
months of those who fairly realise their
value, so that the pleasure is enhanced by
its manner of presentation.
Miss Prnsman's rise to stellar space has
not nbated her leal to please. As Nell
Owvnn she is a most roguish wench, with
the wit and audacity of her Irish nature,
sharpened to a keenness by her Jealousy of
ho duchess of Portsmouth and her love for
Charles of England. She well knows how
o point the shaft of Irony, to give to the
word the turn that makes it cut like a lan
ret, while the merriment of her roguish
umor more than conceals the thrust till It
ns struck home. She possesses the tem
perament, and 13 further assisted by her
nnwlerige born of experience, to the end
that she draws her picture with a care for
he llttl things so that It is made at last a
perfect whole, clear ns a cameo and a de
light in every regard. Her methods are
those of the true artist, the painstaking
care that nothing is overlooked that will
dd to the proper effect sought, and her re-
Its are sure because of this. She does
more for Nell Gwynn than to make her a
merry girl who captivates a king by her
smile and her wit; she mnkes her a woman
who Is capable of holding that king by her
deeper nature, and thus throws a light on
the love affair of this pair that fairly II-
umlnes the page, nnd makes It clear why
Charles clung to this Irish woman when all
his other loves palled on him. Nell was a
tenderhearted and sympathetic woman;
history says she was pretty, coarse but
witty, and was beloved by the common
people for her charity and kindness. The
question of morality aside morals as we
understand them counted for little at the
court of the Stuarts her love for the king
was unaffectedly honest, and his for her
apparently so. One of their sons was made
a duke, and the other died, and among the
last words of tho Merry Monarch was a
charge that they should "be good to poor
Nelly." She died five years after her royal
lover, and her funeral sermon was preached
by an archbishop. She must have had both
wit and beauty to have won such distinc
tion in such a time, and the attention Miss
Crosman has given the character seems to
be Justified.
Mr. Smith makes a reasonably at
tractive king. He has the presence and
the general Idea of the character, so that
there Is llttlo reason to quarrel with his
work. Indeed, this is true of all the com
pany, so well has the play been cast.
Brother James" Is made the butt for
the monarch's shafts and receives them
Well, while Rochester, who was "kicked
upstairs," Is given an opportunity to most
effectively pronounce the epigrammatic
couplet that survives to this day, and does
It well. Miss RIgl has a most trying role
in the Duchess of Portsmouth, and scarcely
ceems to realise Ita fullest possibilities.
She Is too patently the agent of Louis and
not sufficiently the woman who schemes
for her own hand. It la reasonably true
that she had a right to expect some sort
of dominion over England's monarch, and
that while serving France she also could
serve herself. Little, if any, of this notion
can be gotten from the play. Mr. Pitt's
Buckingham Is good, and Mr. Herbert,
Mr. Furlong, Mr. Fowler, Mr. Cahlll and
Mr. Steppllng sach contribute in a large
measure to the success of the piece by the
excellence with which they present Bmall
but Important parts.
The attendance at the Boyd last night
might have been greater without endanger
ing the safety of the theater, and yet it
was far from, a meager assemblage, whose
welcome to the star and her company
was most enthusiastic. Some little merri
ment was occasioned by the mistake of
the stage manager, which brought the cur
tain down In the face of Miss Crosman,
cutting off her pretty little epilogue most
abruptly. A generous call brought the
star smiling to the footlights, though, and
she was given to understand that she had
once more established herself here. "Mis
tress Nell" will be repeated this evening;
and tomorrow afternoon, the engagement
ending on Saturday evening, when a double
bill will be offered, "Nance Oldfield" and
"Madeleine."

Intelligent expression and make its thrill

lit the way peculiar to this sort of play,
and the audience present last night was

Civil engineers In the employ of the

new stock food concern to be erected In the
northern part of the city. It Is understood

JUDGE, LOOKS FOR "PERJURY
Vlnsonhaler Interrupts Suit tn Hand
Case Orer for Investi
gation. Juxlge Vlnsonhaler, In the county court,
Interrupted a casa before him yesterday
to announce that It "tmed to him as
though perjury had been committed and
that he would recommend to the county
attorney apd the Bar association that the
matter be taken up and sifted and the
facts ascertained. The alleged perjury was
developed in the examination of Ianlel
Horrlgan, a young lawyer, by Attorney
James C. Klnsler. Horrlgan was the plain
tiff in a Suit agolnit the Chicago, Burling
ton St Qtilnry Railroad company to re
cover VO, which he claimed an original
client, Wllliom McLeod, had assigned to
him. The suit was brought In Justice
Eastman's court for $16) to recover twice
the value of a horse killed near Malvern,
la., by the railroad, a section of the Iowa
code being quoted to represent that, the
plaintiff was entitled to twice the value of
the stock destroyed. Klnsler represented
the Burlington and the Justice returned a
Judgment of $10) for Mcleod. The de
fendant Intended to appeal, but arrange
ments were made to comprolmse the case
on the basis of $S0.
Horrlgan asserts that this stipulation
was to he good only If the money was
paid within a certain time and that Klnsler
failed to effect the transaction. The $S0
and costs was paid Into court, because a
gam if nee action naci neen brought by a

it wus due because the settlement was
not made In time. He prepared an affi
davit In the case and swore to it, but did
not sign it.
The point In perjury entered In a seeming
conflict between certuln sections of this
a big stock food mill the Industries of
South Omaha will be added to and the
chances are that a number of new houses
will be built In the vicinity of the mill In
order to arcommodnte workmen and others
employed about the concern.
Sweeping: Hefnse Into Gutters.
Every once In awhile the city officials
affidavit and Horrigan's testimony on the
wltneps stand. According to Klnsler. with
call attention to the fact that sweepings Horrigan's knowledge nnd consent nnd in
from stores and offices are thrown into tho his presence, Justice Eastman was author
gutters on paved streets. There Is an or- led to erase the figures "$160" In the judg-
dlnance prohibiting this, but no attention is
paid to it. Somo business men on N street
stated yesterday when their attention was
called to this matter that the city ought
to obey the ordinances as well as prop
erty owners. Every morning the sweepings
from the city offices are dumped Into the
gutter in front of tho city hall building,
when there Is a refuse pile In the rear of
the building Intended for office sweepings.
Merchants say that as long as the city of-
ment and substitute "$so" in lieu of a re-
mittur and did do so. On the stand Horrl
gan denied thnt he was a party to the al
teration, although the affidavit seemed to
bear out Klnsler and to make the witness"
B'-atements contradictory. It was at this
point that Judge Vinsonhaler stated he
would refer the matter to the county at
torney and the Bar association for Investi
gation.
Horrlgan protests that he was not guilty
ficlals do not comply with the ordlnanco ' perjury and seems confident thnt he can
there is no reason for them to do So.
Licenses Doe May 1,
All dray, plumbers, gas fitters and house
movers' licenses expire with the end of
tho present month and new licenses must
be secured. Tags and permits are now
ready at the office of the city clerk and
notices are being served on all persons In
terested to take out their licenses before
May 1. The city derives quite a revenue
from this source and no one will be per
mitted to enjoy the privileges unless li
censes are secured.
Hunting; for Mrs. Glllen.
Chief of Police Brlggs Is In receipt of a
letter from Generul Superintendent O'Ncil
of the Chicago police force, asking that
Mrs. H. C. Glllen be located. In his letter
to Chief Brlggs the Chicago official says
that Mrs. Glllen is supposed to have left
Chicago with a man going by tho name
of II. Sparenberg. The couple traveled
west over the Rook Island road. The all
iens lived at 2336 West Fiftieth Place In
Chicago. Mrs. Glllen left home on Febru
ary 7 of this year and sent a letter to her
husband from South Omaha, saying that
she woa without money. Mr. Uillen de-
clear himself of the charge. Judge Vinson
haler found for the defendant and dis
missed the case.

The third nnd lust concert of the Phil
harmonic club, under Mr. Robert Cus
caden. director, was given last night at
the Creighton auditorium. The audience
nearly filled the lower part of the house
and was most attentive and appreciative.
The orchestra numbers about thirty-five
pieces (no brasses) and Is made up prin
cipally of students, with a few profes
sionals to lend confidence and body to the
organization. It is a pretty sight to see so
many young girls; their white dresses add
a gala touch to the picture.
Mr. Cuscaden can hardly be said to be a
graceful leader, but that fault he may cor
rect gradually. He seems to have good
control of his people nnd that is the
main thlri.
Of the orchestral numbers. The preludo
to "Lohengrin" was rather marred by the
unseemly booming of the first cello. The
violins were n bit weak at first, but gath
ered courage ns they went along. The
climax was effective.
Mr. Fred Cuscaden's intermexxo, "Love's
Harmony," written In waltz movement,
was a charming surprise. It was co
quettish, whlniRical and full of melody.
His brother gave it an interpretation which
put one" In mind of Strauss. It should
have been relented.
Of the soloists Miss Emily Clevc carried
off tho honors. She hns a full, rich tone
which could be distinctly heard above the
orchestra at all times. Her Intonation is
good and she hns a dashing, contlde'nt
way of playing which wins her audience.
Miss Louise Shadduck played the beauti
ful adagio from the G minor Bruch Con
certo in a most satisfying manner. In the
finale she also did good work and the
orchestra accomplished the most sponta
neous work of the evening. They were
all well together nnd entered Into the
brilliant spirit of the composition.
Of the Moszkowski "Suite for two vio
lins" the meaning remained rather ob
struse, as the solo violins did not rise
uhove the accompaniment.
Of tho "Berceuse" from "Jocelyn," men
tion will have to be made at some future
tlmo, when Mr. Franz really appears to
play it.
Mr. Cuscaden deserves much credit for
his faithful work. He should continue his
concerts next year. Omaha needs a fine
orchestra and the only way to get one Is
to make a beginning and keep pegging
away. M. D. L.
