b R s ] HE OMAHA DAILY BEE:,SUNDAY, JULY Amusements To Queen Alexandra is now ascribed the activity of the English stage censor against | theatrical indecencles. It is said to be due to her influence that Maeterlinck's ““Manis Vanna" was proscribed, and that Mme Rejane was asked to omit some of the al- leged strong plays of her repertory. While the queen is. not “squeamish,” she has a very rigid idea of what constitutes public dpcency, and so far as her power and cx- ample goes she will ald in uphoiding a high andard of purity. It is quite likely that America will feel the effect of the queen's example, and that, to a Jarge extent at least, the tendency toward the impure on the stage will be checked. If this be the result, clean-minded Americans will have something to feel thankful to England’s queen for. The decadence of dramatic art, both in the playwriting and playacting phases has been much discussed and much deplored during recent years. Some writers, whose efs thusiasm can hardly be distinguished from hysteria, have haifled this author or that as great, anG have exhausted the magazke of supetiatives in singing his praises. But while these Iimpressionable people are burning Incense before the shrines of ons or the other of the moderns, the public taste is surely and not so slowly swinging away from their inaniti and that the vogue of the classic drama will be re-es- tablished. Not that we are likely to be overwhelmed with a flood of heavy drama, or that the light and entertaining play is to be abandoned. That would be too great a change. Most people still go to the the- ater to be amused and distracted, and will in & large measure patronize any sort of play that promises this resuit. But they bave grown tired of the type of play that has been given prominence during the last years; for the “book” play and the problém” play and the “romantic” play are all of the same family, and differ only in dogree. Here and there a few modern pleces loom up like rocks in an ocean of mediocrity or oases in a desert of dramatic ldrivil, but these resting places are few /and far between. It is in hope of finding {more of them that managers are mow cast- ing about, arranging for revivals of old plays, while watching for 4he appearance of pew. In discussing this point, Lyman B. Glover, the well known critic of the \Chicago Record-Herald, writes: a Al fashions, even those of literature and ine publio ime tl ea—co'mofi;. e ‘ot Canother the Gomestie drama, atmospheric _plays or |music comedles are in demand.

At last accounts Mr. Froh- man had not determined whether to begin the Adams season with “As You Like it or with some new play, the nature of which 1s Kept a state secret. It will be remem- bered that several years ago Miss Adams, who s cssentlally a comedienne, with no great tragedy in her manner, played Jullet in a fashion which but few enjoyed.

The exi- gencles of the route making made it nee- essary that Mansfield should appear on successive evenings In three one-night ands In that stafe. When he reached the town in question he remembered it as a place where he had appeared to a very small audience two ons earlier. When 8 o'clock came he appeared on the stage dressed for his role, and peeped through the hole in the curtain to size up the gathering. Evidently he was not pleased, for he returned to his dressing room with a scowl on his fa [Ten minutes later he reappeared, told the stage manager to get ready to “ring up” and, took another look through the peep-hole’ “Forty-six persons—forty-six!” he mut- tered. I counted 'em!"” Then he found kimself face to face with the janitor of the theater, who was on the stage, in the hope of picking up a tip or two by helping the actors dress. 4 “‘Forty-six people!” repeated Mansfleld. “Say—did you ever have a good house in this town?" § 0, yes, sir,”” said the janitor, confidently; “but it burmed down about seven years ago.” Co & Events, Summer resort diversion and a varlety of ‘high-class amusement to attract the pleas- ure-seeker to a cool place will be featured on the programs at Krug park today, after- noon and evening, and for the ensuing week.

Bill's Wild West is on a sort of au revolr tour this season, not ome of the £oodby kind, but of the milder “hesta la vista” variety, the present intention of the management being to revisit the prin- cipal cities of Europe next season and probably during a year or two following. Colonel Cody and his partner and man- ager, Nate Salisbury, have done for the people of the east really valusble educa- tional service in making them acquainted with the most notable, potent and interest- ing realities of this great western land and we Will take exceeding pleasure in seeing the highly effective means employed in timt service, Suppose we have seen buck- ing bronchos and cowboys many a time.

A few facts worthy of consideration. In the first place Buffaio OTHER Bill's Wild West is not a “show” in the general acceptance of that term, but an exhibition of world-wide resource and EXHIBITIONS universal interest, It is the first, the only, and must be the last of its kind because the class to which Col. W. F. Cody (Buffalo Bill) belongs consists of ONE. He has never had a double. Then, who can take his place? His great exhibition is absolutely original and true It is the most intensely interesting and strangest entertainment ever organized or dreamed of. It is the sonly real object teachet history has ever had or recreation furnished.- It is a veritable mirror of heroic manhood and the camp of the makers of a nation’s history. It is an academy of equestrianism where Rough Riders graduate, and those schooled in hardships partic- ipate in the hazardous sports and pastimes of which the great plains and deserts are the natural playground. It is here that one sees the reali of imperishable deeds and feats of fearless skill, fashioned by necessity. The one presentment of grim- b, visaged war given under the banner of pleasure in the smiling face of peace. It is here that bravest men depict the deeds that have made them famous in warfare, life saving and humani- tarian acts. Men who have faced death in ali its forms and successfully contended with opposing forces and fearful odds. Of such elements is the Wild ‘West composed. Its. varied features embrace, realistic battle scenes, martial pageants, dazzling reviews, savage displays of frightful war and foray. All the latest episodes of national and international events are here depicted. The allied powers of the world are faithfully represented. Indians, Germans, Cubans, Cowboys, Mexicans, U. S. Cavalry and Artillery, Western Girls, Britons, Cossacks and Bedouins ride side by side. Can you beat it? ~ No, the world will never see its like againl And, best lof all, everything it presents is realism itself. No made-up mummies or crafty subterfuge. Every horseman is the hero he represents. The art he employs is the lesson of a life. The garb he wears is the uniform of the nation or tribe which he represents. The very bridle that curbs the neck of a prancing steed is of regulation make and pattern, and will stand the A closest scrutiny. And at the head of this mighty host rides the originator upon fame’s warpath, the last of the greater scouts, to whom our army's safety was entrusted, Col. W. F. Cody (BUFFALO BILL).
