THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: ABOUT PLAYS PLAYERS AND PLAYHOUSES While not particularly notable, Omaha's last week In the way of amusements was enjoyable in several ways. The Boyd of- fered two of its strongest attractions and each had splendid support. At the Krug during the first half of the week “Arigona” drew all the people the theater could hold, and at the Creighton-Otpheum a falrly well balanced vaudeville bill was well patron Ised. The feature of the week, probably, was the hit made by Toby Claude. 8he is certainly one of the cleverest comediennes on the stage today, and Omaha people hope her first visit will not be her last. Blanche Walsh, coming at the end of the week, was strong enough to draw full houses to the Boyd at both performances, and very fash- fonable audiences, too. It Is a matter of regret that her over-cautious managers #aw fit to put her on a remarkably long #lege of one-night stands, and to Inciude Omaha in the list. Omaha's first experience with the Tolstoy #ince It must have been, was merci- fully visited in the ‘most acceptable form and the peopls who go to the theater were | spared the fate Inflicted on so many un- fortunates throughout the country of hav- ing it come in the shape of a visitation by a summer stock company, or some other organization equally bad. Miss Walsh and ber associates succeed to some extent in making the dose palatable, but Mo vehicle has yet been discovered that can successtully, disguise the taste of Tolstoy, and an emulsion is both impossi- ble and undesirable. To be sure, the original active element has been much at- tenuated in the preparation served for the stimulation of our sluggish moral na- tures, yet its properties have not been diluted to the point where they are no longer virlle. Yet—and the confession is made with no especial feeling of sadness- the single dose 1s not sufficlently seductive to make one long for a thorough course of the treatment; other doctors offer more easant and probably as reliable reme- dies, although few of them appear to be 0 cocksure as to the resultant cure. Tolstoy, you know, has that abiding faith in his own powers that marks the zealot in any direction, and has long since re- Solved any doubt he might ever have en- tertained in his own favor. The great @ifMculty he has encountered lles in the ma- terlalistic aspect of the world; most people nowadays want to be “showed,” and the mere example of & single man Is not suf- clent to convince them. Tolstoy's sincerity In his bellefs doesn't matter In the least. It will be granted without dispute; yet one can hardly help wondering it Tolstoy could find in his doc- trine sufficlent strength to support him in his cause, had he not already tasted the Sweets of life, and dld he not know that within his reach Is the cup from which he may again drink such gs it yet contains. Last winter, when the profluction of the “Resurrection” was first debated as among the New York possibilities, The Bee ex- pressed an opinion as to the utility of the Tolstoy example, and suggested what appears to be an inevitable conclusion that his martyrdom to his own convictions has been a net loss, beyond the personal satis- faction he may have secured from the consclousness of having done what he thought right. And, after all, that is the Greatest of rewards. Up to date there has been no rush or concerted movement on the part of either the classes or the masses to follow after his teachings, This condition' dogsn’t deter Tolstoy, although it does cause him sorrow, for, convinced @8 he ls of the correctness of his con- clusions, he {s equally certain of the good that would come to mankind if only all men would follow his plan. Others have felt much the same, and experfenced the Same cause for poignant regret, and the world has wagged along In its heedless Way, and-very likely will to the end. Just Recause we are not all wise enough to profit by another's experience. One thing Tolstoy has done In his handling of the sex problem, and that is to Point & possible chance for the sinner to * get back, not .to original purity, but to an attitude that organized soclety can tolerate. Other dramatists, have opened to the derelict one a vista as cheerful and in- #piring as a glimpse down a coal hole; sulelde belug the refuge most generally adopted for the final dlsposition of the impulsive. woman or man who has “gang & kenning wrang,” and the answer given o the: question ‘bemg' the tomb. Tolstoy preaches a happler doctrine, finding his inapiration In the thought that s older than ereeds, that repentance Is atonement. He doesn’t claim originality for the thought, nor does he lose sight of the fact that the Injunction to walt for the sinless manh to bogin the stone-throwing is continually @laregarded by those who are anxious to practice marksmapship, without consider- ing the copdition precedent to entry in the competition. He simply repeats the word fo the Magdalen, “Go and sin no more. Repentance has always been held forth the first if not the final step to redemption, and It is through penitence that Tolstoy Proposes’ to restore the sinner. It is not an &n easy road he points out; it 13 a road that s lighted all the way by hope. Penitence won Paradise for the dying thief, secured forgivenpss for the Magdalen, and ls the ons condition on which a promise of pardon | is held out measage, just Peri: k It and redeem thy sin; t to let the pardoned in."* to all. That is Tolstoy's s the angel at the gate gave Mr. Richard Mansfield opened the Bow Lyrio theater in New York, a splendid new temple of art bullt by the Shubert Dbrothers, on Monday night with “Old Heidelberg," and more than redeemed the promise of the play, both in its production and its performance. & comedy based on the thought that youth 18 fleeting, and the joys that then delight us fade, leaving megories only for the sterner days of real existence. Of the play and player Mr. Winter writes in the New York Tribune: Mr. Mansfield, who, next to Mr. Jefterson, worthily stands at the head of the Ameri: can stage, jo Nis re-entrance lasi night % the new theater called The I Forty-s-cond str-et, and imp ated Prince Henry in the comedy of RISING BREAST suffer “N Heldelberg The house was crowded and the comedian was warmly we.comed—the public greeting, indeed, being such as shows affection for the man no less than wdmira . for the actor. The play of Old delberg,” long popular in Burope, and, to some extent, already known in Amar: ica.” discovers student fife In one of the most deiightful cities of the old world, and, by an emblematical picture, at once ro- mantie and tender, humorous and pathetic, shows the golden glory of youth, the pre- clous value of opportunity, and the fatal an- tagonism of greatness and peace. “Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown. is the serious drift The predominant charmi of the play, meanwhile, s its ex- positure of Bohemfa.

In this’ assumption of Prince Henry there {18 a background of experience, a depth of | meaning, a mellow warmth of color, in one word, a maturity, that not only wins the heart, but irresisfibly commands the judg- { ment. The spirit of the performanee s not s0 much that of “Wilhelm Meister’’—which, {ndeed, it recalls—as it I8 that of Longfel: [low's “Hyperion; "but it is the genuine | German spirit—the peculiar blending of seemingly incompatible elements—expedi- | ious promptitude and bluft humor with | wistful, tender ~sentiment and drifting, dreamliike, poetie sensibility—that marks | the German character In its most attractive phase, Achievements of this order main- | tain the dignity of the dramatic art and prove its value; not simply because they | reveal the actor, but because they benefit | the audience.

Diversified embellishments ornament the play; scenes of splendid reveiry and scenes of royal state; there is a pageant of | frolic; and the enchantment of music is in- { yoked, to cast around this simple story of love and Joes, of sorrow and of noble sub- mission, the soothing glamour of delicious sound. ‘But aside from all this, and above {1t all, the puissance of the representation {18 the spirit of the actor, making it beauti- ful as it passes, and, with sprightly, deii- cate, buoyant art and spontaneous ténder- ness. leaving In every mind the strong in- centive, always and at any sacrifice, to do that ‘which is right, and patiently to en- dure the ordainment of Inexorable fate. to love's exquisite Coming Events.

Rome, Teddy Simond, May Baker and Libby Hart. Bobby Ralston and Jerry Sul- livan are the “yellow kids.” Joseph Jefferson, the dean of the Amerl- can stage, will be seen at the Boyd for & single performance Wednesday night. He will 'give “The Rivals,” enacting the role of Bob Acres. Seats will go on sale for the performance tomorrow. Mr. Jefferson Is at the ripest age of his art. The laugh and the tear which respond to the magic wand of this historlan ripple and flow readily today as they did forty years ago, ‘when 'he was making his first conquests with “Rip Van Winkle.” No other charac- ter in the entire range of the drama h: ever. taken such a strong hold on popular favor. Bob Aecres Is a strong second, for Bob has twenty-five years of public affec- tion and approval behind it.

The drama is In five acts and the action Is swift and cumulative. Among the stirring scenes which go to make up this drama s the rescue of a chld from a den of huge African lons. This occurs In the fifth act, which shows the Interfor of a circus tent. The chfld s thrown into the cage by the villain and is rescued by Its mother, who enters the cage and snatches the child from the jaws of death. “Are You & Mason?' comes to the Krug for matinee and night performances Thurs- day only. Last year two companles were necessary to fill the demand for this amusement medium, and this season the best members of the two organizations have been drawn together to insure a more perfect performancé than that of 1ast vear. The central idea Is that of a man purporting to join the Masons when fn reality he has not. Varlous sub and counter plots lend to the general effect and a love story completes one of the most artfully constructed farces of the present day. “The Minfster's Son" is attraction at the Krug Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday matinee, The play ftself fs a pastoral comedy, depicting life and scenes ns they exist In everyday life.

Mr. Edwards will probably he most readily recalled in “All the Comforts of Home.” Supporting him will be Sophia Brant and Mr. Franels Stuart. Thelr vehicla will be a sketch entitled “A Pass for Two." Keough and Ballard will pre- sent a sketch called “A Vaudeville Sur- prise,” constructed so as to offer the greatest range for the.display of versatil- ity by the players “A Pleture from Lif will be the vehicle for those ‘‘tramp"” character actors, Lew Bloom and Miss Cooper. Last season Mr. Bloom appeared here in monologue. T, Nelson Downs will be among the Initlal bladers. He s called “The King of Coins” and will offer a stunt in legerdemain. James Richmond Glenroy, “The Man with the Green Gloves,” promises a freshly culled budget |of Celtic jokes with his brogue. A rapld fire talking act will be contributed by Phil and Nettle Peters. Herrmann La- haan {8 proclaimed the latest find in the way of a boy prodigy. Master Lahaan is only 13 years old, but it is claimed he renders selections from such masters as Beethoven, Liszt and Mozart with sur- prising ease and skill. The kinodrome pletures promise to be of more than usual Interest, especlally to the children. The fascinating story of “Robinson Crusoe" will be fllustrated in @ series of scenes, commencing witl® the “ship wreck” and continuing to the home coming, when fihe wife is found aged and the children grown up.

RUNDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1008, MUSIC AND MUSICIANS Have you ever stopped to think of the flowers which are “born to blush unsden," even though they do not necessarily ‘‘waste their sweetness on the desert air?” In life, along all avenues, we come Across these ministering ones, who apparently are wasting thelr fragrance, and who are do- ing & work which does not come to the ken of mankind, until we have accidently stum- bled across them. I have in mind the musical profession, but you can go into other lines yourself. The solo has been sung. The audience is now free to Interchange comment. Some people say one thing and some another. It Is all about the singer. She sang well, or he Interpreted badly, or she phrased beau- titully or his tone-production was poor. And how few of us think to mention the artist who filled in the background, which really was quite as important as the song! And my matter-of-fact one says, “Go to, now, what is that to us? Why should we hasten to analyze the whole thing, and all that? Why can we not enjoy it, as & whole? Analysis kills enjoyment." And then, he laughs at me, and says things about me which make me laugh tod; and he calls me sentimental and things like that. o that makes me think seriously. For when a man calls you names and things he admits your superi- ority in something! And I come to this fact: In our efforts to refrain from sentimeéntalism we often Kkill sentiment, and sentiment (the word being a direct derivation from the Latin “gentire,” meaning “to precelve by the mind and sens ‘to feel”) means noth- ing more nor less than feeling; and feel- ing 18 closely, very closely, akin to love; and love i3 God; for God s love. We should be careful lest we kill sentl- ment. Let us try to find the flowers that blush unseen. That accompanist furnished the most delighttul subject Tor meditation. Notice her gifts, First, you see that she has a very clean and well-balanced technique. That fn itself Is a strong point. Becpndly, she has the self-control and repose’ (such 4w rare gitt) which enables her lo accom- modate herself readily to the impulses which sway, at the moment, the soul of him who sings. Thirdly, she has judg- ment, as can easlly be noticed by the way in which she accommodates her dynamic force to his softer or larger tones. And then, she has, she must have the poet’s insight. And all these gifts help to make her what an accompanist of ability always is, an unobtrusive personality—a flower that {8 born to blush unseen. The next time you hear a solo, take in the accompaniment, too. You will be surprised to see how quickly your enjoyment of music will increase, becauss atter all, musical growth consists not altogether of what you hear, but also very largely of how you hear! ! This from the purely selfish standpoint. “Then, T suppose, (with some notable ex ceptions In your acquaiatanceship) there are very, vemy few of us who do not wish to kno% more, to learn more, ‘on all things, there are in fact very many of us who are glad to learn something about something not in our own line of work, every day. This species of listening to music, will develop one’s hearing resources admirably. And when one has learned to listen In that broader way, one will soon learn to 100k for other unseen blushers. And his thought will try to unite with the thought of the composer, and he will see things he has not dreamed of, and he will_gee definite purpose on the composer’s part, in connection with that sequence of chords or that pecullar movement. And 80 on. Even to the plano buflder and the plano volcer and the plano tuner. They are all, at times, flowers which are born to blush unseen. Our capacity of personal enjoyment is in direct proportion to our capacity of ap- preciation of the one doing It. As It has been sald by those of old-time many times and ‘oft: “We get just what we give.” The more apgreciation we glve, the more enjoyment we get. T have recelved word from a musical cor- respondent of mine in the beautiful city of Fremont about a very interesting musical program whiéh was given there last week in connection with the Woman's club work. Mrs, Sheets d Miss Corinne Paulson, from Omaha, represented the Omaha mu- sical department, which &d such vallant work for music last year, and will doubt- Jess do so again this year. Mra. Carrle Nye of the golden volce and the' poet soul, had charge of the program. Mrs. Sheetz gave them the fine aria from adeschda,” by Goring-Thomas, and the dramatic manner in which she colored it eyoked much applause, while Miss Paulson, with her honest, frank, stralghtforward style of playin much attention. In addition to features there were interesting offerings from Fremont musiclans. Miss Swanson, harpist, has just returned from an lowa engagement and leaves to- morrow to fill one at Sloux City. ,Miss Cahlll is & young woman who plays the violin, and who will live In Omaha this winter. She will teach and play. Her tone is good, mever effeminate, full of sonerity, and her style appeals to me, as does her artistic and refined appearance and personality. Miss Cahill pronounces it Kay-hill, after the manner of the sunny south of old Erin. The Swedish Lutheran church, always energetic in musical matters, will add an- other new pipe organ to the list in Omaha. This church has had an organ, but not a very good one, and the one in course of construction is bullt by &n eagtern organ Arm and contains twenty-three stops, in- cluding the pedal stops. It 8 in a large measure due to Mr. John Helgren's energy and enthuslasm that fhe organ ls being built, and In fact his spirit has kept the music of that church vigor- ously in motion for 10, these many years. Mr. ¥, H, Wright secured from the or- gan bullders the engagement to open the ofgan and will do so on Thursday evening next.
