It must not be forgotten that hitherto, with

up an appearance of tranquility In the

will be Incalculable. Ninety-five per cent

"Madame X" Is a drama of compelling
force; that Is. It wrenches at the emotions
with a never-ceasing tug, reaching Its
Umax at its very latest moment. Its
tory Is that of Madame Florlot, who left I
er husband's home with her lover, after
election. For two years she was away,
ud then returned to beg forgiveness; the
us band assures her their sun will live,
and then thrusts her into the street. A
friend comes along and convinces the hus-
and he should have restored the erring
wife to her place at the head of the house
hold. They set out to find her, but she
s swallowed up In mystery. Twenty ears
ater, returned to France from South
America with a jailbird for a lover,
Madame Florlot commits murder to head
off the blackmailing of her son, now grown
to manhood. The son Is named by the
court to defend his mother, and does so
with winning eloquence. At her acquittal
he Is apprised of the Identity of the
woman he has saved punishment, and for
brief moment they are happy together.
Then, Just before the husband and father
can Join the family group, death comes to
release a weary and bruised soul, and the
tale Is told. The last curtain descends on
a sorrowing group drawn around the
woman, who finally felt her eln expiated
and forgiven and who died with her dear
est vtish granted.
Argument as to any of the several phases
of the question Involved will be deferred.
The tale is told simply, but directly, and
its force grows sequentially on its cumula
tive elements; incident follows incident In
natural order, all leading to the logical
end. The company having it In hand seems
especially equipped for Its proper enact
ment. So much might be said In praise
of any, and so little In criticism, that ex
tensive analysis of the actors' efforts will
also be put over.
To Miss Montgomery falls the very diffi
cult lot of presenting a woman of refine
ment and breeding, sunk to the lowest
depths of degradation. Difficult, because It
Is too easily overdone, and most who have
undertaken a similar effort have overdone
it. But Miss Montgomery keeps herself
Well In hand, In acting and In: talking, and
secures her effects with such certainty as
deserves the pains she has put upon the
role. It would be hard to say In which of
several situations she shows the greatest
strength, but it can be said that all the
way through shs Is great.
Mr. Burt should have an expression of
grateful appreciation of the taste with
which be enacts the role of Florlot; he ac
curately values his points and gives each
its due weight. To Mr. MacQuarrl Is due
creau ior as line a oit oi acting nas ever
been seen tn Omaha; his long speech In the
first act, where he pleads with Florlot in
the role of friend, for the outcast wife, is
delivered with the utmost of tmpresslve
ness and conviction, and what might have
been conceived as a minor role is thereby
lifted to one of first magnitude. Mr. Oland
Is a capital "crook," a light-hearted, reck
less, selfish whelp, who struck the woman
ho was consorting with while his cynical
smile wreathed his lips and for whose tak
ing off there is no regret. Mr. Bunnell and
Mr. Tim Dions contribute two other ex
cellent character studies to the whole, and
Mr. Hamlin has a "bit" that Is done with
great care and good effect. Mr. Wright
Is very good In the Important role of Ray
mond. Miss Alberta adds a well considered
character to the whole, and Miss I.a tSalle
Is the daintiest Ingenue who has yet trlppeo
across the Brandels stage.
To Miss Eckhart falia the task of ex
ploding Blsaon's moral, but, perhaps, sup.
porting his philosophy. She has the role
of chambermaid, wife of the porter at
the hotel where the murder Is done;
Madame X explains to her the misery that
comes from deserting husband and child
to flee with a lover, and cites her own
case as an Illustration; the chambermaid
listens, and the next night flees with the
comedy and the play romre In through the
fart that none of them understand each
other or themselves.
As Trlxie, Miss l.an Is afforded an. op.
portunity to do some real acting. In a
charming manner she portrays the de
.elopment of Trlxie from an Impulsive,
mpetuous girl to a rounded woman. Mr.
l ynch appears as Everslelgh, and In truth
makes a delMnnlr young bachelor. Many
times he Is forced to drop his customary
reserve, and does It admirably. Frank
Beamish, as Rene Flanders, enacts the
volatile Frenchman as If he were one. The
other members of the company do their
full share In the well-rounded little comedy.

chiefly by their versatility. Johnny Stan

Miss Norton is pretty and clever, while
Stanley helps the good work along. The

accounts largely for the overflowing greet

at 10:45 o'clock last night Louis In

were arrested on charges of assault and
Hoofer was locked up as a complaining

Hoofer and his wife and Harvey Will

home from a show when the assault was
made. According to their story they were
walking along peaceably, when lndutcher
and Steckmeyer ran up behind them and
Steckmeyer struck Hoofer.
When arrested Steckmeyer said:
"Williams went with this girl for a
couple of years up until two month ago,
Then they broke up and I started going
with her. I have heard around town that
he said he was going to kill me If I went
with her, so I thought I'd whip him. When
I ran up Hoofer kind of stopped and 1
thought he was Williams and hit him.'
Steckmeyer said Miss Scola Is a pretty

WASHINGTON. Feb. a -"If the neces
sary appropriations were available. I would
establish postal savings banks tomorrow In
Sot) additional cities and towns of the United
States."
This statement waa made tonight by
Postmaster General Hitchcock In view of
reports thus far received concerning the
first month's operation of the postal sav
ings system. The reports srs most grati
fying to Mr. Hitchcock and to the other
fficers of the postal savings service. They
re regarded as demonstrating that the
new system already has passed the experi
mental stage.
The certlflcate-of-deposit plan, which Is
n Innovation tn Uie transaction of postal
savings business. Is shown to be admirably
adapted to Its purpose. It Is found to be
readily understood by depositors and easily
handled by postmasters.
The total deposits in the forty-eight ex-
slnig postal banks for the month of Jan
uary will amount to approximately ttiO.OM.
This Is an average of about $1,300. Assum
ing that this average will be maintained
throughout the year, the aggregate of an
nual deposits will be closo to S760.000. It ts
assumed by the officers of the system that
he deposits will be correspondingly greater
when the service is extended to first-class
offices.
The average amount of deposits being re
eked at each office, as indicated by the
January returns, Is larger than the corre
sponding average for the British system of
postal savings dcposltorlea In 1!J8, the most
successful year In the history of that sys
tem.
A large majority of the depositors In Jan
uary were foreign Americans, many or
whom have been in the habit of aendlng
their savings to their native countries for
deposit. An important result of the system,
therefore, is to diminish the outflow from
the United States of such funds.
In view of the successful operation of the
new system during Its first mouth. Post
master General Hitchcock has recom
mended to congress the appropriation of
11,000,000 to be Immediately available for the
extension of the postal savings system to a
considerable' number of postofflces, the
patrons of which are clamoring for the new

Burlesqae at Ike Krag.
"The Girls from Dixie." current as the
four-day offering of the lCrug this week,
is a standard burlesque production, re
vealing a sterling group of girls who save
the Bhow from the stamp of mediocrity.
The humor of the piece is cryptic, but the
audiences which were present for the
performances of Sunday enjoyed the ef
forts of Gus Adams and George Guhl, who
participated In the two farces of the show
as German comedians. It was easy to
conclude from the nucber of laughs the
audience had that these hard working
comedians were the embodiment of all that
Is funny and amusing.
Throughout the pluy the musical slumbers
were well rendered and convinced the
audience that they were above the burlesque
average. Miss Lillian Keeley sang well as
the holder of the principal feminine role.
