The return of Margaret Anglin to Portland at the Ilcilig Theatre Seventh and Taylor streets, should be a delight to all lovers of fine acting, for she is justly regarded as one of the few grout actresses of whom the American stage can boast. It is some two years since wc last saw her in the dramatiza tion of Mrs. Deland’s fine story, “ The Awakening of Helena Rit chie” . On Friday and Saturday evenings, May 3rd and 4th, with Saturday matinee at special pri ces, Miss Anglin and her col leagues will be sc*<n in a new anti original (and report says decided ly clever) comedy, entitled “ Green Stockings,” -written by A. E. \V. Mason, an English play wright, novelist and member of parliament. The comedy has rec ently concluded a splendid run of over three months at the Elliott Theatre in New York, whert* it was hailed as a delightful enter tainment, and one o f the best spee- imens of what is known as high comedy, to distinguish it from tIn* slapstick methods of latter-day low comedy.
