't Zaza Florence Roberts
Mtes "Roberts opened her return en
casement at the Marquam last night in
her first and greatest success, "Zaza."
She has appeared here in tins role so
many times that the story of the wonder
ful girl of the French vaudevilles Is fa
miliar to almost every Portland theater
goer. Her performancec last night was
the best she has ever given of the try
ing role before a Portland audience.
Probably a majority of the audience
had seen her "Zaza" before, but from the
interest and enthusiasm manifested it
might all have been new. Many things
in it were, for at each return visit this
brilliant Calif oro la actress gives us to see
that her art Is becoming finer and truer.
The Florence Roberts stock is going up
like September wheat on a Joe Lelter
market. . She ought to rank with one of
the groat National stars, and every
month Is bringing her nearer that mark,
and unleee all signs fail she will soon be
giving the metropolitan critics some
thing in the way of emotional acting
that they can go emotional over. Her
Zaza. last night, was a splendid a fin
ished performance In the most exacting
sense. If the little old Alcazar in little
old San Francisco has any more Flor
ence Roberts in embryo, for Heaven's
sake It should trot them out. The
stage can use them.
It Is gratifying to know that Miss Rob
erts is to be seen on a wider horizon next
year. She is heading toward Broadway,
and next season expects to get as far as
Chicago. Of course, it's a good bit of
a way from there to Manhattan, but with
that good running start she should land
where she properly belongs the year after.
W hen she does that, we provincials out
here on the Coast may expect her to come
back and put on airs. Let us hope that
Fhe won't speak such correct English
that It will give us paresis, and that she
will recall with fear and trembling her
"Washington one-night stands, and re
membor that she Is of and for the Coast.
The support last night was also better
than ever before seen here in "Zaza."
Lucius Henderson, as the frall-moraled
Dufresne, did the best work we have yet
seen at his hands. Georgie Woodthorpe,
In her familiar character of Aunt Rosa,
was capital, as was also William Yer
ancc. who played Cascart, the other half
of Zaza's sketch. There was a com
fortable audience, and curtain calls were
made after each act. There will be an
other performance of "Zaza" tonight,
and on Wednesday Miss Roberts will play
"Toss." A. A. G.
NEW VAUDEVILLE BILLS.
Lyric.
It is a pleasure to again hear Thomas
W. Ray, tenor singer, at the Lyric, after
his Northern trip, and his friends are sure
to gather around him. Mr. Ray is one of
the best singers of Illustrated songs ever
heard here, and Is blessed with a clear,
expressive tenor voice. His song this
week will be "Good Night, Beloved, Good
Night." The Kellys make a good sketch
team, and easily start the laugh, while
the vltascope flashes a number of amus
ing pictures, including a bathing scene.
Edie De Toe is not only an unconscious
humorist, but he is nearly an unconscious
barrel Jumper. He comes on the stage
with a beard almost concealing his face,
with a lighted lamp in his right hand. He
blows out the light with a pair of bel
lows he has with him, and then performs
stunts on tables, and hito and out of bar
rels, as If he relished the work. Miss
Welsse is a clever trick violinist, who
plays her violin while she stands in dif
ferent positions. Sometimes she holds the
bow with her teeth, and at other times
with her feet. Murray K. Hill, in black
lace, doos a monologue turn. He makes
Jokes, and among his amusing songs are,
"After Church" and "The Fighting Jap
anese." Star.
"Bimm, Bomm, Brrr." How funny the
names sound! But all the same they are
the names' of one of the greatest musical
teams in vaudeville In this country- The
act Is one of the attractions at the Star
this week. As a starter the three young
men play Suppes overture, "Poet and
Peasant," on a xylophone, called by the
Germans a "straw fiddle," and with sliver
chimes and two violins they play "Old
Black Joe." But the crowning act of all
Is the playing of the old Irlsk air. "Be
lieve Me if All Those Endearing Young
Charms." on Illuminated revolving wheels.
and Imitation of bagpipe music by cor
nets. This brought deafening applause.
No better whirlwind dancing has been
seen here than in the act of the two Mo
lassos. Their work is graceful, and the
very poetry of motion. The young woman
has a stunning wardrobe, er gown being
or yellow and purple satin. Maud Still.
Boubratte, is a dainty, graceful girl, and
rings, among other numbers, "Good Bye.
My Ladye Love." and "Peaches, How Can
You Blame Me?" The projectoscope shows
views of a sea fight off Port Arthur, and
the ontertalnlng bill also includes Close
Brothers, acrobats; Bd Turner, balladlst,
and the Fielding Comedy Four. Owing to
tneir cimcuit turn, the Molassoe will ap
pear only at S:30, 8:30 and 9:30.
Grand.
Radium Is so scarce a commodity that
It is valued by scientists at millions of
dollars per pound, and happy Is the
man who. finds it among his minerals.
At the Grand this week appear the Rip
ley Sisters, who give a spectacular ra
dium dance and they have what they
Fay is radium painted on their dresses.
It is certainly a most Interesting study
in phosphorescence, and the audience
looked on the -wonderful dresses of the
performers "with awe. The dance is a
novel one and a top-liner. The Martels,
cyclists, are about the best ever seen
here in their particular line, and any
trick possible to be done on a bicycle is
performed by them. Their work is ex
trcmely graceful. The two Berger
Brothers, equilibrists and acrobatic
marvels are "worth seeing. They are
small-sized men, but splendidly devel
oped, and aro daring performers. One
feature which makes a hit is the grand
Iscope picture of a negro being burned
at the stake for the crime of highway
robbery. Other good acts are O'Brien
and Wost, conversation men; Smith and
Chester. Operatic duetists; Alf Bonner,
song ilustrator; the Cliffords, L'Ave-
leuse de Sabre, and Wills and Oolins
travesty duo.
Arcade.
Top-liners at the Arcade this week, tho
Rennee family, five in number, for money
was thrown at them for their singing act
yesterday. The young woman has a very
Good voice, full, clear and sparkling, and
the first presentation Is where she and
her partner play as Italian street singers.
The man is dressed as a veteran, and the
woman operates a tambourine. Yesterday
afternoon she appealed for "backsheesh"
In such a realistic way that three gal
lant young men in the audience threw
nickels on the stage. In Hebrew comedy
the Rennees sing "Ven the Sun Vos a
Shlnin on Jerusalem," and they also give
a Swiss warbling act. The Rennee babies
are a feature. Rollins and Wilson are
high-class banjo players, and gave op
eratic selections with a dash that re
minds one of college concert banjo play
ing. Aumann, splendidly developed, gives
a new bagpunching act, one of his feats
being punching four bags at once. Dell
and Monitor, two girls, are entertaining
In a singing and dancing act, one of them
going through evolutions with a ring.
Genevieve Ardeli sings the ballad, "The
Man Outside," and the bioscope shows
pictures Qf the St. Louis Exposition, the
workings of a torpedo-boat, and other en
tertaining scenes.
Baker.
Acrobatic and monologue turns are com.
mon In vaudeville, but It's the new fea
tures that count sometimes. This week at
the Baker there is a tall young man
named Al Chrlstal who, while he sings
songs, apparently tears bits of paper into
pieces. He sings and tears away, and
he suddenly displays the paper, and you
see before you a pattern that would honor
a sideboard In a parlor. It looks like a
creation in lace. Then Mr. Chrlstal tells
a baby story, and tears at another piece
of paper, ultimately showing a line of
paper babies. Good for Bell and Thorn
ton, sketch artists in the farce. "The
Modern Telephone." They show genuine
merit and their jokes are new. The man
has a good baritone voice, and his song,
"One Night in September," Is worth hear
ing. R, G. Baldwin presents the tearful
Illustrated song, "Nobody Seems to Love
Me Now." The blograph flashes among
other features a view of Japanese outpost
life. Other numbers wortn while: The
Three Rexclnos. acrobats; H. J. Appleby,
Danjo soioist: Jenkens and O'Neal, philos
opher and German emigrant; and Harri
son Brothers, in the sketch, "The Matri
monial Agent."
Bijou.
Mention the River Rhine t n a German
and he grows tender-eyed and senti
mental. One of the interesting pictures
shown this week at the Bijou Is a view
or the River Rhine, with its wonderful
falls. So real seems th nltnr timt

THE SUBWAY IN MELODRAMA
Awful Possibilities in It Eevealed to THew York Audience.
New York Sun.
THE '.'Secret of the Subway" has
been solved. New York lives In
doubt no longer. The secret is that
the Columbus Circle station can be run
without gatemen. ticket shoppers, slot
machines, passengers or motormen even
without subway ads. All this Is revealed
to the soft, appropriate music of "I
Dreamt That I Dwelt In Marble Halls."
in the third act of "The Secret of the
Subway," produced at the Third-Avenue
Theater last night.
The posters say that this is the great
est spectacular melodrama ever written
concerning the greatest engineering feat
in the world. It Is, Indeed.
The curtain reveals Harry Sterling, a
young engineer, who has just proposed
to Rose Forsythe, the beautiful daughter
of one of our most prominent capitalists.
The old gentleman has just God-blessed
him. and be is going away to make a for
tune In the West. He doesn't come back
until the fifth act, and that's the greatest
stroke of genius in the whole show. The
anemic hero Is. never of any use in a
melodrama anyhow, except for the hero
ine to faint on when she's saved. By this
simple device the author loses this one
right off the reel, and the villain gets
center stage.
Presently, enter the vlllalness. You
spot her because she wears a red dress
and has wicked eyes. She says to the
heroine:
"It's your birthday, and I've brought
you a little present. It's a daggah!" With
the vlllalness Is a gentleman, whose place
in the play Is uncertain until he begins
to roll a cigarette. When he did that last
night the gallery tumbled at once and
hissed the villain like anything. Then you
learn that Papa Forsythe has Just hidden
112.000 in a desk In that very room. From
that time forth until the vlllalnessj stabs
him while she Is In the act of seizing the
money, you can see papa's finish plainly.
Before the vlllalness does the stabbing
an ex-convict comes in and tells the vil
lain about the dirty work he's been doing.
Like all ex-convicts, he is dressed in cor
duroy trousers, a red shirt and a fur cap,
with earlaps.
"Yes, I mur-r-dered your wife and
child," says the ex-con. "Cracked the kid
on the head. He can't squeal no more.
And now I want my share of the swag.".
But the wife and child could take pun
ishment like Battling Nelson. While the
first act Is young, In comes little Jimmy
the Newsboy. You can see at a glance
that he's the child whp was cracked on
the head. It "has made him daffy, but
good. As for the wife, she steps Into the

Withdraws From Victoria.
NEW WESTMINSTER, B. C, Dec. 12.
(Special.) The Great Northern Railway
Company will withdraw from Victoria
Tuesday, December 13. The steamer Vic
torian, which cost the company nearly
vlllalness stab Papa Forsythe with tho
heroine's daggah. The heroine rushes in,
kneels beside the body and holds up the
weapon.
"Arrest her for the mud-dah of her
parent!" cries the villain. And In the
background the ex-con. soaks little Jimmy
again.
The second act is full of dazzling In
fighting. Little Jimmy's corpse, which has
been put in a box comes to and escapes.
The villain lays out the ex-con, who stays
dead. Tho villain and " vlllalness feed
knockout drops to the elastic wife and
stand stoop-Bhouldered and Impersonate
"hate" out of the gesture book while she
wriggles herself to sleep.
"What shall I do with her?" says the
vlllalness. Any doubt that she's the vll
lalness is dispelled In this act by her cos
tumelavender with $3C0 worth of cotton
batting ermine trimming.
"Hist!" says the villain cleverly rolling
another cigarette and his eyes at the same
time. "It is now 2 A. M. At 2:20 an ex-pre-ress
train will roll past the Columbus
Circle station. Hurry her to the tracks."
In the third act there Is the Columbus
Circle station. It's a beautiful scene. Not
an ad in sight. The ticket choppers havo
all gone home, so the coast is clear. Enter
the villain and vlllalness. carrying the un
conscious wife. They bind her to the
tracks. Enter little Jimmy. He Is soaked
again, and takes the count Exit
the villain and vlllalness. An automobile
horn toots in the wings. Little Jimmy re
vives on the count of nine. He rolls onto
the track and rolls off with tho bound wife
as the pasteboard subway express, which
has been trying to straighten out the plot
in the wings, bobs dopily In.
"Saved!" (Curtain.)
In the fourth round that is to say tho
fourth act the heroine is in the Tombs.
The villain cornes in to seo her. He
springs the inevitable proposal, thus
showing that he Is a thoroughbred villain,
registered stock, by Nero out of Lucrezla
Borgia.
She spurns him.
Flower song music from the orchestra.
It 13 the hero!
"Saved! I have been with the Governor
all day! Here is an . order for your re
lease!"
That Governor was a dandy. Getting
ner out before she was tried goes Odell a
mile better.
The Sun reporter of melodramas left
before midnight, so he can't tell whether
the villain and vlllalness murdered ono
another in the end or were simply "haled
off' to jail. But from the trend of events
he could see their finish. He would have
liked, though, to know Just how Harry
Sterling, tho near-hero, landed her. and

purple when she passed out.
$100,000 last Spring, will be tied up, but
will go on the Vancouver, Victoria and
Belllngham route in February. The action
of the Great Northern In withdrawing Its
service from Victoria Is the result of Vic

promised when the service was Inaug
urated. Victoria refused the subsidy be
