SANTA CAUGHT FIRE
Earl Albright Seriously Burned
While Giving Presents.
CANDLE IGNITES CLOTHING
George A. Weitman, an Uncle, Saves
Boy's Life by Using a Blankets
Sad Ending of a Merry
Christmas.
"While playing the part of Santa Claus
and distributing toys, little Earl Albright,
whose parents live at 707 First street,
was seriously burned about the face and
hands.
A Christmas party had been arranged
by the mother of the injured boy,- in
which a tree loaded with presents was
the central feature. A number of rela
tives and friends were present, and the
evening was given over to festivity.
Earl Albright, 14 years of age, assumed
the role of giftgiver, appearing in the
suit so typical of Santa Claus. His red
coat was entirely covered with tufts of
cotton, and it was this that led to his
accident. While engaged in handing out
the presents he unwittingly passed his
arm over a lighted candle, which immedi
ately ignited thq cotton, and In a mo
ment he was completely enveloped in
flame. Screaming with pain he rushed
into an adjoining room, where his uncle,
George A. "Weitman, was resting, and
who had the rare presence of mind to
smother the flames by means of a
blanket.
Medical aid was promptly summoned,
and everything possible done to rolleve
the condition of the boy. It was at first
thought that the Injuries might be fatal,
but an examination showed only the ears
and right wrist to be severely burned.
"While still suffering pain the condition
of the boy is not regarded as precarious,
and the doctors say that he will recover.
The accident was a shock to the guests,
and proved a terrifying experience to the
mother and other women present. It all
happened so quickly and produced such
a spectacle as to render everyone help
less with fright, and had It not been for
the prompt action of Mr. "Weitman the
result might have been fatal.
Al THE THEATERS
What the Press Agents Say.
MAXINE ELLIOTT TONIGHT.
Will Have "Her Own Way" at the
Marquam Grand.
Maxlne Elliott will appear in the new
Clyde Fitch comedy, "Her Own "Way,"
under the management of Charles B. Dill
ingham, at the Marquam Grand Theater
tonight, Tuesday and "Wednesday nights.
Miss Elliott comes here with the prestige
of New York favor, and the record of hav
ing scored the most unique theatrical run
vnr known In New York, having ap
peared at four different first-class theatersH
In succession without leaving Broadway
a record never before equalled by any
other attraction.
"Her Own "Way," is said to be the best
play Clyde Fitch ever wrote. It Is a story
of New York life of the present day, and
dopicts m a charming manner certain
features of life in the smart set which
will be highly relished even by the very
class thus cleverly caricatured. Miss
Elliott will be supported by the same
strnnc pnmnanv kcpii In New York- 'the
cast includes Charles Cherry, James
Carew, K. c. Here, Fanny Addison Pitt,
Goorgle Lawrence, Nellie Thorne and little
Donald Ga.lln.her n clever child actor. The
stage settings are rich ao4 elaborate
views of modern interiors. Curtain at
S:15. Carriages at 10:50 o'clock.
"For Mother's Sake."
Thoater-goers remember with pleasure
the little sunbeam Marie Heath, who ap
peared here last season in that beautiful
pastoral play "For Mother's Sake." Miss
Heath, supported by the same strong
company, will present "For Mothers
Sake at the Empire Theater Thursday,
Friday and Saturday nights of this week
and at the regular matinee Saturday.
The company carries its own car loaded
with evory piece of scenery used in the
four acts, all of which was painted by an
artist who made a study of the scenes
which wore reproduced.
"The Star of Bethlehem."
'The Star of Bethlehem," which the
Bon Greet players will present at the
Marquam Grand next Friday and Satur
day afternoons and evenings, will be
IrTsharp contrast to "Everyman," which
the same company presented here a
fortnight ago. "The Star," while im
presslve, lacks the solemnity of "Every
man" and has many comedy 'scenes and
Incidents. This miracle play has been
specially arranged by Charles Mills
Gayley as an entertainment for the
Christmas. The performances are tin
der the auspices of the Ladies' Aid So
clety of the Portland Babies' Home, to
whloh institution part of the proceeds
will go4 The sale of seats opens
Wednesday at 10 A. M. at the box of
ficc
Alexander Concert Thursday.
Only three nights more and Arthur L.
Alexander, tenor, will apear before the
Portland public for the first time at the
farewell concert which is to be given in
his- honor at the "White Temple, Twelfth
and Taylor streets. Portland's best mu
slcians will participate. Mrs. "William A.
Knight, pianist, will make her debut, and
so will the Orpheus male chorus-, 2?
voices, and the Alexander quartet, Mrs,
Hose Bloch Bauer. Mrs. "Walter Reed. A.
lu. Alexander and Dom J. Zan,-vwho will be
heard in a duet and quartet from Liza
Lohmann's "Persian Garden." The other
singors nre: Mrs. Fletcher Linn and Mrs.
Anna Selkirk Norton. Remember the
date, Thursday evening. Tickets are now
on sale at "Walter Reed's store. There will
be no reserved seats.
Ball Players at Columbia Tonight.
The members of both football teams
will occupy all the boxes at the Columbia
Theater to witness the company's per
formance of "The Charity Ball" tonight.
The boxes will be decorated in the teams
respective colors and several large blocks
of seats have been sold to friends and en
thusiasts.
AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS
Grand's New Bill Today.
The event of the vaudeville season takes
place at the Grand today, where the per
focmances will be continuous from 2 to
U P. M. The management has spent a
jrmall fortune in getting together the
various attractions and the result Is a
6trong bill. Such feats of physical skill
as will be shown by the Shak-Hadji-Ta
har Arabs have never been seen before
and only this great troupe does them
They are paid a big salary and they do
the greatest act of the kind ever present
ed hore. "A Doll-Maker's Dilemma" is
a comedy presented by the four Roberts
of rare excellence. J. O. "Wise, the Choc
taw cartoonist, gives an act entirely new.
He uses both bands with equal dexterity.
Levina and Arlington offer "Burglar's
Surprise." Kenton and Lorriane do a
new kind of musical act. Cumxnlngs and
Merley use the "Bogus Count" as a ve
hicle for their great ability. fWhVn the
Bees Are in the Hive ' Is the new illus
trated song of Alf Bonner. "An Impossi
ble Voyage" is the grandlscope picture
and it is the 'very latest from Paris.
These and other attractions are on the
bill and It is the greatest ever.
Star.
Another great bill opens at the Star this
afternoon, and to accommodate holiday
crowds there will be continuous per
formances from 2:30 until 11 P. M. The
Taggart family, famous for their wonder
ful feats, will present a novel and enter
taining act, and Montgomery and Can
tor, rag-time kings and dancers, will pay
a return visit This time they will more
than duplicate their former hits. Daisy
Harcourt, London's favorite, enters on
her second week at this house In defer
ence to popular request. She is one of the
best exponents of coster songs' In the
business. The bill also Includes: Ellis
and Paloma, sketch artists; the Delkcs,
dancers and kings of fun; "Williams, Jug
gler; Arthur Lane, balladlst, and the
projectoscope.
Sparring Match at Lyric.
The big event of the exceptional holi
day bill at the Lyric this week, commenc
ing this afternoon will be the appear
ance of Dave Barry, the famous fistic
champion, and his sparring partner In
a brisk three-round bout at each per
formance given at the Lyric during the
holidays. This go will .be a scientific
boxing match, fought out on Its merits,
and will demonstrate the manly art of
offente and defense as it is practiced by
the greatest ring generals of our time.
It will, however, of course, not be a
finish fight, and will be free from all
brutality. In addition to this great ex
ceptional Teature there will be one of the
best vaudeville bills ever presented in
the city. , Don't miss the great holiday
show.
Arcade.
This is holiday time and at the Arcade
a most entertaining bill has been prepared
to meet ii just the sort of amusement
for holiday week. Today the Arcade will
have continuous performances from 2:30
to 11 P. M. It's always good to hear a
violin virtuoso, and Llols Mendenhall Is
one of the best Her tone and bowing
are all that can be desired, and the same
may be said about her -welcome selections.
"Waldron Brothers, German comedians,
are also clever singers and dancers, and
Genevieve Ardell will be heard in an
other illustrated song. Dan and Bessie
Kelly, laughmakers; Sylvan and O'Nell,
sketch artists, and the bioscope make up
the remainder of the bill. It will suit all
tastes.
Baker's Holiday Celebration.
The greatest week of the year will be
celebrated at the Baker with the great
est vaudeville bill it has ever been the
privilege of a local manager to bring to
Portland. Every act which has a place
on . the list will be the best possible of
Its kind, having been selected with the
greatest care by the Eastern booking
agents for the holiday season. Start
early to begin a good new year by see
ing the phenmenal Baker offering. Not
a thing on the programme but the very
best and the management is willing to
stake its reputation that nothing better
has ever been presented in Portland. "We
know what the people want and we are
giving it to them. If you don't believe
it visit the Baker this week and.be con
vinced forever afterward. Remember
the new show commences this afternoon
