Rose Stahl's greatest comedy suc
cess, in fact one of the best known
comedies of recent years, "The Chor
us Lady,"was secured by manager
i George L. Baker for this week's at
traction and will be substituted for
the one announced a week ago.
The stry of the "Chorus Lady" con
cerns Patricia O'Brien, who has been
on the stage now several seasons
and ha3 become hardened to the slang
and worldly wisdom of it when she
returns home for a visit. Her father
is a horse trainer. A young sister in
sists that she has talent and clamors
to go on the stage also. Patricia tries
to dissuade her, but the younger girl
has her own way. This causes the
occasion for the second act the scene
of the dressing room of the chorus
girls. This scene shows the- chorus
girls preparing their make-ups, and
is full, of chorus girls conversation,
slang, race horse dope, etc.
Nora, Patricia's younger sister has
acquired a wild infatuation for play
ing the races. She has been giving
tips on the races to the other girls
and now finds herself compromised in
money matter with a scheming man.
In the next act she goes to his rooms
to extricate herself, while he welcomes
the opportunity of ruining her repu
tation. Patricia learns of this and fol
lows her sister to the man's apart
ments. Confronted by her he denies
the presence of the girl, who has tak
en refuge ia an adjoining bedroom
The parents of the girl and the lover
of Patricia force their way in. Here
the play reaches a point where tne.
lover accuses the man of treachery
harboring the younger sister, and for
cing the door open he is confronted by
Patricia she sacrifices herself for the
honor of her sister but the events of
the following act set matters right, j
Miss Stahl has been succeeded in
the role of Patricia O'Brien by charm
ing Grane Aylesworth, . who has re
ceived flattering .press notices all over
the country for her clever portrayal
of the great comedy role. "

One of the few really successful
musical 'plays of the past season was
"Alma, Where Do Tou Live?" which
was produced at Weber's theatre, and
which is to be seen at the Heilig thea
tre, Seventh and Taylor Streets, for3
nights, starting Thursday, March 14th,
with a special priced matinee on Sat
urday. "Alma" was originally given in New
York in German at Adolyh Philips'
theatre, where it had a long run, al
though in that language, much fault
was found with it on account of its
suggestiveness. When translated in
to English, however, by Mr. George
V Hobart, the salacious features were
eliminated, and it proved to be a dain
ty, captivating play, and made such
a pronounced hit with New York aud
iences that it filled Weber's theatre
for the entire season.
"Alma"' althpugh first given in this
country in the German language is
really of French extraction, and was
played for a long time in Paris. The
libretto ia by Paul Hevre, while the
music was contributed by Jean Bri
quet, and in making his English ad
aptation Mr. Hobart went rather to
the French source than to the Ger
man. There are fourteen musical numbers
in "Alnia," each of which is said to
be a gem, and they form no small
part of the strength of the entertain
ment although the comedy is really
the foundation of the plays success.
In sending it on the road this season
Mr: Weber will provide a first-class
production, both as to' scenery and the
costuming, and has engaged an ex
cellent company, headed by Nannette
Flack. Others prominent in the cast
are Charles A. Maurray and Aubrey
Yates, the former a popular comed
ian who is well known in all parts of
Alice Lloyd, cleverest of English
singing comediennes, the only box of
fice rival of Harry Lauder, will make
her first appearance in Portland as a
musical star, at the Heilig theare,
7th and Taylor streets for three nights
beginning tonight with a special mat
inee on Wednesday in "Lttle Mi3S
Fix-It," one of Werba and Luescher s
last season's successes that seems
destined to make even more of a hit
in the future than it has in the past,
thanks to the winsome personality, pe
tite charm and artistic methods of
the dainty English vaudeville star.
During the action of the play Miss
Llod will introduce her latest song
hits including "Master Cupid," "Ship
Ahoy," "The Hobble Prominade," "Ex
cuse Me, Mr. Moon," "I'll Build an Ed
en for you' and "Lover's Lane." She
will aslo take part in that greatest
of dance novelties, "The Turkey Trot,"
which has just been taken up by the
exclusive Newport colony, and which
has everywhere been one of the great
est attractions of the play.
The story tells of a happy little
bride who, during one of those fleet
ing quarrels peculiar to the period
just before and immediately after mar
riage, decides to "fix- it ' for her
friends so that they too, can enjoy
the happiness which she knows is on
ly suspended temporarily for herself
so she drowns her sorrows in match
making and soon has no time to think
of her own affairs. Of course, after
involving everyone concerned in trou
ble there is a general reconciliation
just as the final curtain falls.
Prominent in the cast is Lional
Walsh, the noted English Comedian,
James C. Lane, Grace Field, Frederic
Santley, Annie Buckley, Nellie Mal
