This was notable In the fourth met, which when writing Mr. Klein must have had brain fag, tar does |t drop below the level of the second third acts, and particularly the second which is far and away t and best written of the play. The mess of the fourth act was felt by many— even those not at all versed In the technic of play bullding in the most she weak- Miss Ware Is sald o depicting be at her best in the elemental moods of an ele- mental woman and In such a character she, of course, appeared in “The Third Degree.” Satistactory, at least, she would be In a part of far different kind, because her success is due, in the first place, not to temperament, personal charm or any- thing, but a knowledge of the methods of acting. Those other. qualities she is not without, but her chief rellance is on a surer basts. There has recently been shown on the stage, though not as yet locally, how sig- nally mere personal attractiveness fails when the player . thus .only - endowed is llcd upon to act. A matinee hero, manly of presence and handsomé of face and fig- ure, has been called upon to play some- thing else than himself and the resul: is doleful in the extreme. It Is worth noting In this connection that Faversham, who has been fighting hard to make an impres- slon as something else tnun the idol of the caramel contingent, has at length suc- ceeded, his acting in “Herod" having within a few days recefved the praise of the best critics. His effort to get away from romaniic drama or romantic drivel, you prefer, has been u great success, — The acting of another character in “The Third Degree furnished an amusing dis- covery as to how far many theatergoers can go In diseriminating between the actor and the part. Countless jokes about the hissing of the heavy villain have led nearly every half-intelligent spectator to realize here that a bad, bad man may be quite well played, and the player is sometime: at least accorded his due, But this is as far as it gpes. Malcolm Duncan played the part of 'Howard Jet- fries, jr., a weak, vaclllating youth, weak 1o the point of despisal, if one may coln the word. Mr. Duncan was easily the second best player in the company, but a considerable number voted him poor. ‘These do not like the character; that is ail, d The same people rather thought that the player of Richard Brewster, the lawyer, was as good as they deemed Duncan poor. Their judgment, it the mental process may be so dignified, was quite as erroneous n this case, although inversely directed The part of the attorney was the easlest to enact of any In the play save that of | the quits impossible father, James Seeley did well with it, have been attained. The play served to confirm previous opin lons about the limitations of its author Mr. Klein's chief strength lies in bullding up some good situations aud nls dialogue 1S meritorious. He s not strikingly original even on a commonplace theme and when he tackles a really tough subject, &8 in “The Daughters of Men," he fails utterly. But he can please the majority and his “Third Degree” is likely to last rly as long as “The Music Maste: “The Lion and the Mou; and, while more might — e As respects attendance al Omaha (hea- ters the last week, It was a satisfaciory one for most houses.

Whether acting or play was worse is hard to decide. The Ofpheum did as usual, and that s to say it sold out practical the time and the Krug did well with * Cowboy Girk" PLAYBILLS FOR THE WEEK. List of Attractions te Be Seen at Varl- ous Omaha Theate. ‘“The Ringmaster,® said to have regis tered the first success of the present season in New York, comes here direct from its run at Maxine Eiliott's theater next Thurs- ay, Friday and Saturday at the Burwood with the original cast and production. ‘While there have been many plays dealing with financial affairs, it remained for Olive | Porter, for years a stock actress and later | in | A stenographer in an insurance office Wall street, to bring forward & drama bloh told mot only orrect as to the affairs of the street, but cne 8o Interssting and polgnant as to hold the attention from the beginning to the end | of the story.

There Ik action every moment from tha rise of the curtain Ul its fall. Mr. Cohan has devised a entertainment in minstrel production, and has given to the stage what is reputed to be its blggest and most pretentious mins- trel performance. The old time vaudeville features have been eliminated from the program, and have been substituted with ensemble numbers characteristic of the Cohan musical shows. At the same time there Is strict adherence to all that mins sy implies, with characteristic sketehes of xcenes the southland and termina tion of a one-act musical minstrel comedy entitled “The Firemen's Picnic.” The first scene {8 entitled “The Crimson Trellis,' and it has been pronounced one of the most mammoth and beautiful scenle con- ceptions the stage has ever witnessed In the semi-circle will be seen such well known comedians as John King, Harry van Foseen, Earl Benham and Sam Lee while the vocal contingent has for its principal star singers John Rog Voughn Comfort and Will Onkland vocalists, who have gained and reputation the very best singers on the vaudeviile or minstrel stage. iy, Tucsday present for new Harris minstrel en “written” aud pro- new in much renown At John in the Boya Cort will this city the “Commencement Virginia Frgme the first time college girl comedy Days,” the joint work of and Margaret Mayo, There seems to be the best of intrinsic reasons why this play has won exvep- tional approval. Two of these are that it is native in locale and novel in charac- terization. While the college boy has besn fittingly and remuneratively exploited on the stage, the college girl has been ne- glected, . Virginia Frame, who is said (o have cleverly limned the types that abound in “Commencement Days,” has been fortunate in the collaboration of Mar garct Mayo, a mistress of stage technique But Miss Frame's good fortune has not ended there; she has won the Invaluable advantage of interesting a progressive and liberal movement. John Cort, possessed of means, the disposition and the discrimina. tion necessary, has given to mmence- ment Days” a production that is both handsome and correct, and a cast of dis- tinctive merit, the latter including Fred- erick V.

O'Connor, Albert Roberts, Amy Dale, Leila Smith, Catherine Carter Elizabeth Van Snell, “Tip" Smith and Oli- vette Halnes. The company totals fifty people, of whom thirty are girls. Two baggage card of scenery are carried. A special Wednesday matinee will be given. —_—— Eugene Walter's celebrated play, “Paid in Full,” will be at the Boyd Sunday and Monday. It Is & play which many say it is a duty to see. People owe it to themselves to keep abreast of the {imes in mattors artistic and literary, and of these the drama is no small part. In seeing this play there is a happy combination of duty done and pleasure derived, for “Pald in Full” is entertaining to an exeeptional de- gree. It is a vital story of modern Amer- ica, and though its scenes are In New York they might with equal fitness be laid | in any American city. It is a real ana falthful pleture of the world about and it seems as if the author had picked up a home and its occupants‘from one's own neighborhood and put them down on the age that the public might behold them. The cast sent here comes with a New York reputation, where the play ran for years, two i A stellar attraction comes to the Burwood Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, when Dustin Farnum appears for the first time in this city in the new Tarkington and Wilson drama of life in Louisiana in the early thirties, “Cameo Kirby.,” Whatever | Mr. Farnum has done has always been stamped with the mark of an artist, and It has been regretted that of late years he has not had & play that offered him u #00d chance to prove “The Virginlan” and “The Squaw Man" are not the only types that he can portray. That this new vehicle from the pens of the authors of “The Man from Home" has | #iven him the long-sought-for opportunity 18 fully attested by the praise showered upon him.

Few |musical plays produced for many seasons | |past have been more widely talked about | and no music has been more widely sung or is more familiar to every household in the country than the melodies of “Little John Jones.

Cressy and Blanche ne is |to be extended throughout this week and lanother one-act playlet will be presented | by them. This will be “Bill Biffin's Baby.” | In writing this Mr. Cressy has put more | |quaint drollery and laughable comedy than |ito any of the other sketches he is giv- |ing this scason. Experts in the “acropanto- mimic” art are the members of the Willy Pantzer company, which can always be |depended upon to do something new and out of the ordinary. An act direct from Kurope is that of | Berg's Six Merry Girls. Skill as musi- clans, giace as dancers and vocal expres- siveness combine to make them extremely aceeptable, The Doherty Sisters call them- selves “the ginger girls,” a phrase which amused the English and puszled the Ger- mans, but in America s an augury of an act that has a spicy dash and palatable tang. Patsy Doyle, a monologist, tells no ‘“old ones” and his remarks have a humor of decided originality. The Thalla quartet is an immensely successful in Europe. entered upon vaudeville work six vears ago in Newcastle, England. Cook and Stevens have an act in which one of them imper- sonates a Chinaman and the other a negro. The dialogue Is exceptionally funny.

De Wolf, who has been likened to Bertha Kalish, is also with the organiza- ton. Sunday afternoon the company wiil sing ““The Jewess" and In the evening “The Daughter of Jerusalem." The performances will be glven In the Yiddish language. A b Ward and Vokes will again present ‘“The | Promoters” at the Krug for five days, | |staring Tuesday, November 16, and though the same title is retained it will be found that they have made a prac- tically new offering in this big second edi- tion of thelr last season's success. Their company is one of sixty people and agaln |presents Lucy Daly as the woman detec- Uve, Lew Kelly as Prof. Dope, Charles (Sandy) Chapman as the “fagged out” hotel porter, Eddie Judge as Casey, the dog, John Manley as the bell boy and all of last vear's cast of principals. It cannot be promised that the pretty girl contingent |1s the same as last year, but it is guaran- teed that this important adjunct is a fea- ture of (he big company. The Ward and Vokes ladles' band is also retained this | year. | Next OMAHA SUNDAY The | | ment of Cleopatra | wrath upon Adrienne Lecouvreur DRIENNE LECOUVREUR, around whom the greatest glorles of the greatest theate in the werld, the Comedy Fran- calse, is written, was born 1682, n a little village near Pails. Her father, Robert Couvreur, a poor village hatter, moved to Paris in 1T2. Educated under miserable conditions, without the slightest contact of any kind with art—thgt she conceived a desire and acquired abilities to interpret (he refined poetry of the old French dramatiste, is only another strange story that meots In seeking out the ways of genius At the age of 13, this wonderful child astonished Parisians as a member of an amateur troupe by her nellle's verses and as Pauline in y- eucte,” displaying a new method of de- livery, unlike the character of deelamation 50 prevalent at that time. Adrienne had 4n aunt who was @ laundress and amoug her customers was Lo Grand, & socleticre of the Comedie Francaise. Le Grand was an indifferent actor, but a clever and orlg inal eharacter. Through the patronage of the Daughin, the of Louls XIV, he & podition with the theater, none of which however, survived him, but at the time, atiained considerable pepularity at this Le Grand, however bad he may | have been as an actor, and through the Intercession of the laundress, the little Adrienne was Placed in his charge, and through his in- struction, which was most intelligent and most effective, succeeded In promoting the evelopment of the child. At the age of 16, Le Grand made her re- hearse before the widow Frompre, a well known actreas of her time, who was just about to undertake the leadership of the theater in Lille. So pleased was Mm Frompre with the clever novice that she Whs engaged at once, and in Lille, Adrienne recitals of Cor-| was geod as a Lecouvreur made her debut in 1708. The | young girl gained immediate success and by her original talents and fresh beauty |1t was but & short time before she becams the leading actress in the provinces. After nine vears, traveling about in the country | she attained_the position of leading actress In Strasburg, which possessed one of the finest provinclal theaters. Had it not been for a serious Ivuuble. caused by an unfortunate love affalr which drove her away, it is a question whether she would have ever gone to Paris. The | faithlessness of Count de Klnglin, who | offered her marriage and then forsook her | to marry a lady of his own rank, was the | turnin® point in the career of the girl who was to bocome the greatest actress, not alone In her own time, but of centuries to come, and also & turning point in the his- tory of the Comedle Francalse It was Adrienne Lecouvreur's independent art that opened the eyes of the public to the empty mannerisms of the old school For thirteen years In Parls she was the dol of rich and poor alike. Although she ught against Intrigues instigated by less talented associates, still with her great in- tellectiality and unquestioned art she was appreciated by the best men and women of her time. .The new element which Adrienue Lecouvreur infused into dramatic art was just what it had lacked for many years, and which may be expressed in the | one word—soul | A contemporary gives the following aphic description of her art: “She never appeared on the stage without seeming tu be penetrated by her part. Her eyes told you what she was going to say; her fear, her anxiety, were pictured in her face. The spectator ylelded himself up to all her emotions; he was as. deeply stirred, as overcome, as she. He feared, walled, trem- bled with Ler, nay, his tears dropped be- fore hers. This is not surprising at all for you saw mothing in her which d1d not seem real and genuine. It was her emotion, her BEE: NOVEMBER 1 New Theater Opens Brilliant Company, Headed by Julia Marlowe and E. H.
