is in this tense and gripping por

claimed an actor who gives the best
example of tragic art since Richard
Mansfield was seen in "A Parisian
Romance" and "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.

The play has symbolism and vivid
contrasts, with moments of comedy

Forbes Robertson at Heilige Theatre, January 10, 11, 12 and 13. '
The noted English actor and his Loudon company will present Jerome K.
Jerome's symbolic comedy, "The Passing of the Third Floor Back," at
The Heilig theatre, Portland, for four nights, beginning next Wednes
' day, January 10. Matinee Saturday. . Seats go on sale Monday.
FORBES-ROBERTSON
TO BE HEILIG ATTRACTION.
Forbes-Robertson, the greatest of
English-speaking actors, has, in his
long and notable public career, ex
perienced many different Christmas.
This year he was in San Francisco,
many thousands of miles from his
London home, and many hundreds of
miles from his charming wife, Ger
trude Elliot, who will be playing in
Chicago Christmas Day. Forbes-Robertson,
is, however, most philosophi
cal, and, where an actor of far less
fame and fortune might be disconso
late at this turn and trick of fate, he
is optimistic, bright and cheerful.
- The question of Christmas time was
broached to the great actor a few
days ago. The writer wondered what
thia remarkable man thought of find
ing himself at the end of the contin
ent at Yuletide. ' Forbes-Robertson re
plied: "The first Christmas I' spent here
was when I came over to this great
and hospitable country to play 'lead'
with; Mary Anderson a lovely. woman
and fine actress. Altogether I . have
spent five happy Christmases in this
delightful country, and I think I may
say that Boston, New York, Philadel
phia and Toronto have all contributed
to my happiness at this festive sea
son. One Christmas I spent on the
ocean in a liner crossing to New York
with my company for 'Love and the
Man' but, inappropriately enough,
without my wife. That was a fine
Christmas crossing five years ago. I

Three men. one a German, were
smoking together and talking over the

cigars detracted somewhat from the
interest in the conversation and soon
became almost, unbearable.. The Ger
man apparently did not mind it. but
the other two men began . looking
around for the cause of the odor, when
one of them discovered that it came
from the burning cigar band which
their German friend bad left on his
cigar. J- '
"Excuse me. Heinrieh." he said.
"Your cigar bund is burning."
"Ach, dank you. ott man." the Ger
man replied. "I'm not saving dem."

was my honeymoon.'
"I remember that Just over the
Spanish border stood a great castle, a
magnificent pile, far from being in
ruins. The palace was for sale and
was offered to us for a very reasona

was, building our own castle in Spain.

Robert Hilliard in "A Fool There
Was" at Heilig Theatre.
The distinguished actor, Robert Hill
iard will present his famous play
success, by Porter Emerson Browne,
"A Fool There Was," at the Heilig
theatre, Portland, Sunday, Monday
and Tuesday nights, January 7, 8, 9.
This play is taken from Rudyard
Kipling's poem, "The Vampire." ' ,
ROBERT HILLIARD
In "A Fool There Was" at the Heilig
Theatre.
Robert Hilliard comes to the Heilig
Theatre corner Seventh and Taylor
streets for three nights, commencing
Sunday, January 7th, in his only Port
land presentation of the curiously
fascinating play "A Fool There Was."
Mr. Hilliard is now making an ocean
to ocean tour under the direction of
Klaw & Erlanger, that is bringing him
to the northwest for the first time.
The phenomenal success of "A Fool
there Was," due largely to the power
and pathos- of Mr.. Hilllard's person
ation, is a matter of stage history.
During the past two years he has giv
en it no less than thirteen distinct re
vivals in various theatres of New
York and Brooklyn; six in Philadel
phia, and three each in Washington,
Pittsburg Boston, Chicago, St. Louis,
and other cities.
"A Fool There Was" has been pro
nounced a graphic object lesson in
clean living and domestic fidelity,
and a powerful temperance lesson of
vivid import. In his portrait of the
diplomat brought to ruin by the vam
pire woman, depicted in Kipling's
grimly satirical poem, Mr. Hilliard has
shattered nearly one thousand mir
rors, and smashed twice as many
wine glasses and brandy bottles. He
has fallen down ten thousand feet of
stairway a distance about equal to
the highest recorded aviation flight
All this involves great nervous nad
physical strain.
In this very human drama 13 shown
how a man of the highest mentality
and social distinction may be brought
to absolute ruin through infatuation
for a hypnotic woman. The man im
personated by Mr. Hilliard is a dis
tinguished diplomat going abroad up
on a government mission. Upon the
deck of a big ocean steamer about to
sail he meets the vampire woman a
seductive creature all physical allure
ment. Instantly he falls under her
