desire to have plays handed to me with in
structions to play them, or to be cast for
a part that 1 am not fitted for. That is
the worst feature of the present day sit

not given work for which they are suited.
A better day is coming for the actor and

some of the conditions that now prevail
Not that business management isn't es-
sential but because artistic selection is
also essential, and must be given its proper
place"
Part OF Miss Anglin's plans for the fu-
ture are of local interest, owing to the
fact that she expects to produce in the
fall a play by Miss Helen Ingersol Of The
Bee staff. Miss Ingersoll submitted the
play to Miss Anglin several years ago,
when she was working up THE Great Di-
vide" and 1t was accepted then. Other
matters have interviewed against its pro-
duction, but Miss Anglin is now determined
to put it on some time during the coming
season. 1t is not as yet named, but deals
with western life and concerns four CEN
trail characters. Miss Anglin speaks very
warmly in its praise. and says she looks
with interest to its production, as he feels
certain of its success. Until It Is given TO
the public both the star and the author
feel some diffidence about discussing 1t,
but Miss Anglin says privately that she
considers it a remarkably clever piece Of
writing
The success Of the Woodward organiza-
I ton. headed by Miss Lang, at the Boyd

the thought that permanent company OF
this kind, producing plays such as those
now being offered, will again be a sue
cessful venture in Omaha. In judging the
future by the past, the conclusion is war
ranted that a first-class stock company
offering the higher grade of plays at the
low prices now asked, would be profitable

home for such company and with a
personnel as strong that now being of

theater next winter, but is inclined to the
stock company. If he decides on this &C

The play at Hillman's theater, corner
Eighteenth and Douglas streets, this week,
will be an adaptation from Robert Louis
Stevenson's famous novel "Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde" The story is psychological in
its nature; physicians and scientists have
pondered over it and there is no minister
of note that has not preached sermon after
sermon on the great lesson it teaches. The
play is not, however, grewsome; there is
a pretty love story and a good vein of
comedy that always pleases.

Miss Anglin expects to continue in her
present play until November, Then she
win do some one or more of the classic
comedies she has in mind. She expressed
liking for Rosalind, and also Imogene,
and for Julia as well. Which ones she
will present she has not yet fully deter
mined. She has other plans, looking far
ahead. 1t is her purpose to continue to
produce her own plays in her own way.
She has no notion of giving over her ca
