But why apand time trying to find aome resem blance, .real or fancied, between the aeries of Character! Mr. Crane haa made to live for ua? It la better to be thankful that wa have him, and pray that he bo spared to ua for many a long year to coma. We need him. It la no disparagement to tha lining generation of American romedlana to aay that only one of a goodly number la left ua, and that on la Crane. Jefferaon, Florence. Btuart Ronton, Bol Smith Rus acll. John T. Raymond, Barney Macauley, John Dillon, all tha glorloua company who made the American atage famoua for Ita comedy, have dwindled to thla one man. - A new achool haa arisen, and Ita represen tative men are not striding the world of tha atage aa did the giants who have gone. In tim they may unfold their wings, but for th present we have Crane, and we should cheriah him. One hits aome satisfaction In noting that George Ade'a woik shows expected Im provement. The author of "Artie" haa rlaan through the grades of effort until he la coming out on the clear and elevated plane of real excellence. If Kather and tha Boys" la anything, It la an aarneat of greatness for thla young man, who haa shown himself to be peculiarly facile and happy In dealing with American typea and expressions. He will yet do something that will far outshine his present output. Another lndlanlsn Tiad an Inning at the theater In Omaha last week George Barr McCutcheon. Ilia "Oraustark" la locally interesting for the tact that It was dra rnallxed In Omaha for the uses of the Ferris Stock company at tho Boyd theater eomfc aeven or tight yeara ago. Grace Hay ward, who at tha time waa Mrs. Ferris dramatised the book and played tho role of Princess Ttlve In th first production Dirk Ferris playing Lorry Grenfall. It held the germ of popularity, and later For ris took the play to New York to secure a hearing. It waa promlaed a fitting produc tlon. Time changes all things,' even family relations, and now "Graustark" Is being tnacted under conditions that know neither Brae liayward or Dick Ferris. When last heard from tht was playing In aupport of Mildred Holland while he la running a theater In Loe Angelea, promoting balloon races and otherwise keeping his nama In print, while his present wife Is leading woman at one of th stock houses there, out in Mcuuicneon novel mad into a melodrama, geta much attention from the public wherever It Is seen, and someone is making a lot of money out of It. But it Is aolther Grace liayward nor Dick Ferris. From tho Burwood cornea the unwelcome announcement that Mist Elliott will cloee her season there this week, and that on Wednesday night she will appear for tht last time. That this Is disappointing to a great many people wllli be understood. for Mlsa Elliott has cndeVred herself to t very large following In Omaha. She haa roved beyond any question her histrionic ibllity. During the seaaon she haa played i range of parts as wide as the poles. and haa done all ahe has undertaken well. Painstaking Intelligence and conscientious fffort has marked her course at all times, and whether It waa a serioua part or a comedy . character, sho gave to each Ita proper life and tone. No woman haa ever worked with more determination or achieved a greater measur of personal success In Omaha. Hsr going will leave a big gap. In the ranks of tht Burwood took company, and will b keenly felt by those who appreciate th work of ah artist. Mis Elliott has mad no announua ment of her plan's tor tho future. She will be succeeded at the Burwood by Mlsa Maude Leone, who Is unknown to Omaha but who haa had considerable experience In the smaller cities In stock and on the road.

Th burden of the sOng Is that tht singer does not waste much affection on tht gentleman from your sldt of tht Atlantic, despltt the title. ' Albert Chevalier hat a quite revolutionary sort of scheme for th drama which he hopes to try on you before presenting it In England. "I have long thought," he aaya, "of a achemt for a llttl thaattr for little plays. My Idea Is to hav a theater large enough Keenan Covered the Story O THE most casual ob server I twill be apparent that Frank Keenan, who comes to the Burwood thla week as thv star of David Belasco's "The Warrens of T am Virginia," haa apent moat of hla life upon the atage; no man could have risen to the eminence to which Keenan has attained without years of con stant application. But, Keenan has not alwaya been an actor. He frankly admits that prior to his adoption of the atage aa a medium for his talenta he was at one time a book agent, at another, an Insurance solicitor, snd at stilt another for a glorious period of six months he was a police court reporter upon a Boston newspaper. Some weeks ago In the Lamb's club Keenan, with several other prom lent actora, was discussing his beginning. When lie related somewhat of his newspaper experience he started a discussion aa to whether A man's early talents ever entirely desert hint. One of the party held that Keenan In the years that had elapsed since his last newspaper assignment had lost whatever faculty he had at that to hold an audience that would be suffic ient to pay the not very great expenses, which would run the whole gamut farce, comedy, drama, fantasy or pantomime, operetta or burlesque five plays In one night. The public could come In Just as they do at a variety theater, at any time, and tee something which would be com plete. "Just look, too, at Its advantages from a business point of view. Tou would not, as In the production of a three-act play, be putting all your eggs In one basket. Even If you have only three successes out of the five Items In the bill, they would be suf ficient to make a successful program. "Such a scheme would also give many authors and many young people a chance. There would be, perhaps, two or three prin cipal and a strong working cast. You cannot get away from the personal attrac tion ln the theater. .They grumble some tlmea at the actor-mansger, but, after all, the beat work In the theater has always been done by tho actor-manager, from the daya of Keen, Macready, derrick, Irving, down to the present time. We may hav to pay tht penalty of seeing a lot of the actor-manager, but svsn this Is not always fo be regretted. Take the ease of Irving. He knew he waa a great personality, Every man knowa when he does good work, the man who does not know Is a fool, peaking for myself, " certainly know when I am 'rotten.' "My original Idea was to appear myself In each play, or In three or four of them. It would be hard work, but not ao hard as working a single-handed turn at the halls. It Is possible I may try tht Idea first of all In America. I had a definite offer on my last tour to settle there, but I could not accept It, although I Ilka to visit that country, for the people are so kind and welcome you so warmly. After the experiment In America, 1 may try the scheme In the provinces, before launching It In London." The famoua comedTan la now appearing In a one-act sketch at the Coliseum, called "The First Night." It Is a huge success. but T, for one, cannot help feeling that It is for old times' saks that the veteran actor gets such a splendid reception every evening. When will actors snd actresses realise their own powers and their lrml- tatlonsT As a singer of character songs on the vaudeville atage Chevalier la Inimitable, yet he dislikes the work, oamparattvely apeaklng, and firmly believes that his real ferte Is In drama. I know aa a matter of fact that he has refueed offers of enormous sums to appear In the music hills In order that he might have a chance of playing old man parta In the second-raw melodramatic piodunttene at Drury Lent. He Is a cj tlnci loss to the vaudeville atage, but no addition to the legitimate. . JOHN AVA CARPENTER. COM I Mi TO THE OMAHA THEATERS the I'reaeat Week. After a two months', engagement at th Hudson theater In "Th Call of the North," Robert Edeson, under the direction of Henry B. Harris, has Inaugurated his seventh an nual tour aa a star, and will appear in that ptay here on Monday and Tuesday at the Boyd. The new vehicle la founded on Stewart Edward White's story, "Conjuror's House," and waa written by George Broad hurst. The play, which ie In three scenes and four acta, has to da with life in the moat northerly part of the Hudson Bay com pany's territory. The father of Ned Trent, whose real name la Oraehame Stewart, had several yeara before offended the factor of the post. For thla he waa persecuted and finally w nl to a flea.ilshly cruel Ueat'l. Trent, to avlnge him, corava to the Hudson Bay company's territory. He la captured for trespassing, but because of his courag-e tnd great knowledge of tht country. Is of fered a pardon, providing he will leave the territory never to return. This he refuses, aad when tb sjraer tor hst tUsvtssseJ to the wlMsj of U pommuj finally sto escape, but first to secure a rifle which will provide him the means of food. In order to get this weapon he makes love to the factor' daughter, an ingenious girl, who believes Implicitly In him, and who eventually capitulates to hla charma. But Trent later discovers that his feeling Is a sincere one, and, realising the basenesa of his motive, refuses the aid offered by the girl. His escape, his capture, and hia final forgiveness Is brought about through a aeries of extremely dramatic scenes. Mr. Edesoa Is surrounded1 by an exceptionally fine company of playera, Including Mr. Stephen Wright, Mr. Beymour Stratton, Mr. Thomas McGrath, Mr. Albert McGovem, Mr. Lawrence Eddlnger, Mr. Harrison Ford tnd Mr. Pcrclval Ayltner; Miss Ann Mur dock, Miss Beatrice Prentloe and Miss Maudo Knowlton. During Adelaide Thurston's engagement at the Iloyd on Wednesday gnd Thursday, with a Thursday matinee, she will present her new play, "The Woman's Hour." The play opens nt the country place of Roger Daneway. the man. The two love each other, and while not fully realising It, they unconsciously reveal the fact to othera who are determined upon alliances for both. A plot to systematically Estrange the two la entered into and the. man and the woman suffer In silence until the final act, when . . th crucial hour comes There Is a panio In Wsll street. The for tune of Roger Daneway la about to be swept away. In his excitement. Dane way's broker and does friend admits the fact to Hester Temple. Bhe make her resolve quickly. Realising from her own estate a sufficient amount to save the time possessed for the work, and of fered to wager that lie could not "cover" a story satisfactorily for a New York city editor. Keenan's pride was touched by the other's doubt and accepted the challenge. A city editor of mutual acquaint ance was telephoned and the Wngef. explained. He gladly agreed to assist In Its settlement and tnitiuc)ed Ftenut to attend a session of the all-night court presided over by Justice Oreen a tribunal before which come tht small malc'actora arrested after dark and to report the proceedings. The next night, armed with pad, pencil and reporter's badge, Keensn occupied a chair beside that of th Justice, and latrr turned in a column and a half "human Interest" story that was not only accepted and printed but brought him requesta from several other New York papers to do snecial stories for them. Tlieso offers Keenan declined, believing that ht had sufficiently vindicated his character aa an. able reporter. But he did take the trouble to awaken hla skeptical friend from an early morning slesp and collect tht amount of the wager. man ahe loves, aha sends it anonymously to tho broker, who has his Idoas from whence tht relief comes, but applies It In time to save Daneway. Learn In of this rescue tht other woman In the Oase promptly avails hersWf of the opportunity nn moflcsuy anmits that she saved him. Still believing Hester Tomnla la to mim anothor, and feeling a deep sensa of gratl- iuae, ne asks her to bocome hla wife md she accepts. The broker finds out th true state of affairs and compels the woman to confess snd all ends happily. The sunnortlns- comrutnv Is a nr.r,f nn and the production Is elaborate. The announcement made earlier In the week that the Woodward atook company would open for a week's engagement at the Boyd theater has caused lota of comment among the lovers of that organisation. The company will open with a Sunday matinee, February 14, In that great comedy aucoeas, "In the Bishop's Carriage." Thla Is the piece In which the summer stock made such a success. The bill will run until Thursday. Miss Msry Hill will be In the title role snd the balance of the oomneny will be up to the Woodward standard of excellence. The balance of the week will be given over to a well known piece. Mr. iCmery, who has had charge of some of Mr. Wood word's companies for years, will be In charge of rehearaala and will stage the productions. Tor one week beginning Sunday evening, Fnbrusry SI. Klaw A F.rlanger's massive production of "The Roundup" will be pre sented at Boyd's theater. The original New Tork caat and the entire production will be seen here. This play waa first produced In Chicago, where It ran all aummer, after which It waa taken to the New Amsterdam theater tn New York for a limited engage ment of four months. At the expiration of the time allotted at thie famous playhouse, the Interest In the extraordinary play con tinued so keen that It waa moved to the Broadway theater, where Jt enjoyed a moat prosperous run of three more months. Its tense story, astonishing novelty, won derful realisation o( western scenes and Incidents, and the way In which It ia done, combine tn a marvelous entertainment that holda the attention of the auditor from the Opening scene until the final curtain la reached. The dramatic Incident of twenty mounted Indiana riding along a ledge on a cliff in the third act and the marvelously reallstlo battle scene add an element of realism to the play which has rarely been equalled in tHe history of the American stage. Thert will be an auxiliary organlia- tlon of over 150 people, representing sol dlers, scouts, cownunchers, Mexican vaqueroa. Arlsona girls and Apacht Indians.
