THE OMAHA SUNDAY I&E: SEPTEMBER 11, 1910. AMl'KRMETITI. AMI SEMEJIT9. AMre.KMF.1TS. AMIKMKTf. AMl'SRMKITS. At the Omaha Theaters. Henry Miller to Open the Season at the Brandeii on Monday "Caught in the Bain" at the Bo yd Vaudeville Howei Offer Good Bill for the Week King and Oayety Are Right in line. M ON DAT night Ilnry Miller will opn the ewond season of the Brandeii theater, predentin hi latest success, "Her Husband's Wife," which ran last season In New York and Chicago. Mr. Miller' engagement I for Monday, Tuea tlay, Wednesday and Thursday evening, and Wednesday matinee. "Her Husband' Wlfe,"was one of the first clean-cut successes of laat season. The story of the play Beta forth the ad venture of a hypochondriacal young- wife who fancies herself about to die, and who determine to pick out her aucceaaor. The girl ihe chooses la quite plain, or at least seem o In the- careless unbecoming clothe he wear. She la not apt, the wife think, to make her husband forget 111 decidedly pretty first wife. The second wife-elect I not pleased at the insinuation. Hhe pretend to fall In wllh the rcheme, and then proceeds to deck herself ont In a tunning Paris costume and make a dead et at the huaband. The wife become furiously Jealous, and from that point on the play team with amusing- situations, which are given full emphasis by Mr. Miller and his brilliant supporting com pany. Omaha will see the original cast thnt carries "Her Husband' Wife" to success last year. Mr. Miller continue in the role of the uncle, and Laura Hope Crew I still the pretty, , foolish, young wife. The other Important role are played by Josephine Lovett, Walter Hitchcock and Charles Ootthold, and the minor character are cleverly portrayed by the original players. There wilt be no advance of prices for Mr. Miller' engagement beyond the regular scale customary at the New Urandels. At the Wednesday matinee pop ular prices will prevail. It Is Just a year si me Miss lllllle Burke started out on her first starring tour In "Love Watches." As the girlish heroine of that piece she was charming. Now she Is coming back In another play, "Mrs. Dot," a comedy by W. Somerset Maugham, and th New York critics say ihe Is more charm ing than ever. But then In this piece she lias the role of a wealthy young widow and widows, it is well known, have a peculiar fascination for some men. It will be Just as welt for local theater-goers to Investi gate for themselves when Mis Burke come to the Brandels theater on Friday and (Saturday evening, September 16 and IT. In "Mr. Dot," Mr. Maugham has conceived the whimsical notion of having a young and beautiful widow, endowed with the additional fascination of untold wealth, spurned by inn man she loves and to whom he offers her hand and pockelbook. Well, Dot exactly spurned that doesn't fiuite de scribe the situation. The man is willing enough, but he has a previous engagement and a touchy sense of honor compels him to say no when the widow pops the question. Mrs. Dot, however, is used to having her own way and she won't take no for an answer. How she finally wins the husband he wants that's the play, and Mr. Maugham tell the story in his own peculiar way. There are several other good char acters character drawing is one of the best thing Mr. Maugham doe and Charles Krohman ha provided some excellent actors to Impersonate them. In "Caught In the rtaln," which 1 to be tho bill at the Boyd this week, the Wood ward Stock players will have one of the best chances of the season to show their quality a farceurs. The play 1 light, but snappy, and I fairly loaded with, good thing In the way of bright line, witty epigrams and humorous situation. Much, too, depends on the staging and the mettle of the director will be tested a well a that of the players. Miss Lang will have the role of Muriel Mason, the young woman who tame the woman-hating engineer, Dick Crawford, to be played by 'Mr. HarriB. The other In the company will be well tared for In the long cast, which requires the use of all. Director Brown has worked assiduously all the week In prepar ing for thg. production, which now looks as If it were going to be perfect. The first performance will be at a matinee today, and other performances will be given dur ing the week, with matinees on Thursday mid Saturday. Something quite extraordinary is prom ised for the Orpheum bill beginning at the matinee today. The most pretentious act will be "The Leading Lady," a tabloid musical comedy, with Miss Marguerite Uoiiey in the title role and Italph Lynn and Ld Coleinun furnlbhing must ot the fun. iClghl oilier capable entertainers will be In the piece. One of the unique features is a foot bull game between Miss Haney, the show girls and the uuuience. iiie piece la replete with catchy musical num bers, dances anU funny situations. . Mike Bernard la known in Omahu. When he was here the last time he topped the bill with ins ragtime piano playing. With him thl ton is Willie Westlu. a vocalist and comedian of ubllity. Wlllard Slmins t an other vaudeville lavorlte who needs no In troduction In Omaha. He has a sketch, "Flinders' Furnished Flat," in which Mr. Bimms keeps the audience convulsed with laughter every minute of the time. Lewi MeCurd and associate players offer "Win- n lug on Wind," a farcical skit wlilcn has to do with a young man who Is given oc cupancy of a friend's home und who tries to live up to the friend's station of life, making love to the daughter of a rich man, and reaches his denouement when the owner of the home returns unexpect edly. The Meredith sisters have a series of pictorial songs. They do some quick changes and are known as "The Maids Who Made Hiawatha Famous." The Era est Fantser company are acrobats of In ternational tame. with this troupe is Midget Charlie." the smallest acrobat In the world. These people have one of the classiest acts of the kind extant. LeClaire and banpson hv a cluver burlesque acrouatio act wnich was conceived for laughtaig purposes. Pope and Lno have a novelty act In which a clever dog takes part. The new klnodrome views will be, "The Road to Happiness" and "Poetical Jane." Mr. Julian Eltlnge, whose feminine char acterisations have made him the most dis cussed artist on the vaudeville stage today, will be the brilliant feature at the Ameri can Muslo Hall, where an entire change of bill will be made, commencing at the mati nee Monday afternoon. Mr. KlUuge'a reper toire of impersonations will consist of "The Colonial Girl," with powdered wig and beauty spot; "The Lady of Mystery," a statuesque Uibson type; "The Spanish American Girl." a laughing-eyed Castlllan maiden; "Honeymoon In June Time," In which he depict a demure, but roguish American girl, asxl lastly a number which he has never presented outside of New York entitled, "Th Bride." which I said to be best of all. This 1 hi last appear a-ice In vaudeville, a he la under a long contract to star In a musical comedy. An other trong feature will be Ie Bosloff. a company of whirlwind Parisian dancers, alio will make their first appelant in this country. They come her direct from sucivssful engagements In Pari and Vienna. Besides lb Apache dance, they have several others equally a sensational. Josephine Sar-el, "The Original Ginger Girl," la sure of a warm welcome, for she is an old favorite here. Among the other excellent act will be Conway end Leland, aid to be the only one-legged acrobatic comedian on the stage; Whitehead and Urierson. stars of "The Bed Mill" and other musical comedy hits; Burt Earl, the popular singer and banjolst; The Reros, who will present something new 'In gym nastics, and the Amerlscope, showing latest animated picture. "The Girl, the Man and the Game," 1 the title of the' new musical farce which Billy (Single) Clifford will offer at the Krug theater four night, commencing Sunday matinee, September It The piece Is a musical fantasy in two parts. Mr. Clifford Is seen as a roistering blade, with many gay qualities. Along with the fun Mr. Clifford offer numerous ongs of th catchiest and gayest Imaginable. The offering la clean and wholesome and th fun I of the very best ort. Mr. Clifford 1 upported by Adele Archer, Jack Tralnor, Haiel Swanson, Bud Braman, Rose von Til ler and La Journe. Edward F. Rush call his new "Bon TonB," who open at the Oayety this after noon for a week, a burlesque comic supple ment, and that fairly well describes it Mr. Rush has been generous with his scen ery, lavish would be a better word. There are ten scenes, to say nothing of the specialties and novelties introduced from time to time. James J. Lake, Adam Shore, Pete Kelly, Michael Feely and Vlo Leroy are the principal fun maker. Fannie Ved der sings song that catch the house and Fannie Thatcher, the statuesque blonde, and Emily Mile, the "bathing beauty," add lustre to the class known as peaches.' Then there I that famous bevy of girls known to the gallery god a the Jewels of beauty from New York' Lobster square. In the olio the Dunedln troupe, cyclists; Donegan sisters, roller skaters; Fannie Ved der, assisted by .Cooper and Brown, who dance and sing; Feeley and Kelly, comedy acrobat; Lake and Horge, "In wrong"; and Leroy and Calilll complete the greatest vaudeville bill ever congregated In one organization. Starting tomorrow there will be a ladle' dime matinee daily at 2:15. HOMESTEADER'S CLOSE CALL A Woman's first Mht Alone on , the Big "Hundred and Slaty." When I realised that I Las all alone the great stillness seemed to press in upon me, so I turned to the fishing pole and the lake for companionship. Somehow fish seemed very scarce, yet I kept up the sport until nearly 1 o'clock, all the time trying to per suade myself that It was great fun. ' Dull twilight darkened Into the living blackness of night. Though very, very weary, and aching In every bone from hard riding. I never once thought of sleeping. I had never before spent a night In the open, and somehow shuddered to think ot napping and leaving that big hundred and sixty acres of dull, aching loneliness all to Itself. There was plenty of fuel gathered up for a fire, but somehow the thought of the firelight Illumining my person, and thus displaying my existence to this great wll derness was more frightful than the cloudy darkness, which was becoming so thick that It seemed almost to clot about me. I put on the fur coat, and feit around until my fingers touohed the cold steel of the six-shooter. Picking It up very gin gerly, for it sent creepy feelings Into my fingers, 1 crawled to a large rock near the place where my horse was tied. Some coyote were yelping at the approaching stoi'm, and there was a low hollow growl ing In the dltsance which might have been wolve. I sat there, one hand' tremblingly hold ing the six-shooter, the other serving as a prop for my head, which seemed strangely light. It was one of those sudden April storm nights which the natives say come down from the mountains with a crash of wind and a swirl of snow, and a tempera ture that falls to goodness knows where. The fur coat could not keep out the chill. and It became very hard for me to catch my breath. Though frightened, I felt strangely exultant, for the call of th coy otes, the howl of the wolves, even the wonderful storm, were all on the hundred and sixty acres of lonely scenery, that I had taken up. 1 remember noticing the glow of morn ing showing through th large flying snow flakes. Then my head seemed to rise from my shoulders and to float off Into space. The old trapper found me where I had fallen from the large rock. The snow was caked In my hair, my veil was frozen to my face and my skin was a strange bluish color. When I cam to he was rubbing me with snow and emptying the contents ot the whisky flask into my throat. 'You poor little tenderfoot," he wa say ing, "it was a devil of a night for April, 10 below, and you ain't used to this altitude. neither. Now, I'll tak you down to Mr. Smith's ranch." I was still entirely limp, but he picked me tip and very tenderly laid me across my saddle and strapped me firmly on Then, leading both the horses, he started down the trail.

The Nt- tlonal Milliners' association assembled In Chicago' tossed out that defi to all con cerned at the opening session. Just to rub it in It was announced thut the well dressed theater woman this season will wear two hats. There will be an enormous uprx-r deck concern, Just big enough to crowd Into a taxlcab and worn underneath this will be the cutest lace affair, whlcli will not be removed in the theater. The outside, or top story, of this com bination will be checked when the woman unters and there is to be no more removing of hats in the theater The only draw back in this Innovation Is the fact that It deprives the wearer of the opportunity to display her Jewel-studded hands to all those back of her when she removes her hat; but this will be partly amended for by the fact that she can roach up fre quently and pat the Inside ha; Into shupo. I Ictuie hats on display at the convention measure U inches across. For street wear the tui-ban will be tho thing, and fur hats will prevail this winter. The enormous peach-basket affair, much larger an.) higher than ever, has come back for early fall wear. It Is made la silks of various hues, black prevailing, wllh tremendous bows.
