NOT AT GUREMONT Fritzi Scheff Denies Story of Midnight Supper- ,NEVER HEARD OF PLACE Account of Automobile Ride After Theater the Star Brands as Gross Fabrication and Slander. Hopes to Appear Tonight. MADAME SCKEFF'S STATEMENT. I was not at Claremont Tavern Monday night. I have heard of a place by thaKnams In New York, but If there Is such a place near Portland I have never heard of it. 1 have never made It a part of my life to go out to parties or dinners after my performances. Sometimes, It is true, I have called at the home of friends, after the close of my night's work. It hardly seems cred ible that I should be called upon to defend myself against such a charge. I have felt since I came to America that the American gentleman stood for' all that 1 honorable and would ever defend a woman. I have yet no reason to change my mind. Why brand aH men because one has made a mistake? FRITZI BCHEFF. The foregoing; statement was made last night by Madam Scheff as she lay on a sick bed in her- rooms at tho Portland Hotel. That' she was a sick woman was asy to determine sick not only at heart, but physically as weJl. Madam Scheff received a representa tive of The Oregonian in her rooms at the Portland Hotel last night and for the first time since she started on the tour in "M'lle Modiste" consented to a personal interview. That Madam Scheff was ill it needed no physician to prove. Just to have listened to the voice that has charmed and delighted thousands was enough to have given the direct lie to the story of a night at Clare mont or even in the society of con vivial friends. "It almost seems impossible that I should be called upon to deny such a statement," said Madame Scheff last night, "for I am sure that such a thing could not be said about any member of my company. I have always counted so much on the chivalry of the American public that I cannot believe they will believe such a story about me. If critics had said that I" had not sung well, or had found fault with my per formance, that would have been f-vir. I may not have agreed with then, but to be charged with neglecting my arc is something that I cannot comprehend. "I am delighted with the reception that was accorded to Miss Morrison. I am proud to know that my understudy wan capable of taking my place. But I wonder if those who read that shame ful story stopped for a moment to think that I have played the part of M'lle Modiste for 100 nights without missing a performance, and that when I do not appear in the part that I lose money. This is Just putting forward the mer cenery side of the case. Oh, if the peo ple only could understand how this has hurt me, they would, I know, weep Just as bitterly as I have. "I will admit that, in a measure, I am a public character from the time that the curtain goes up on a perform ance until It goes down on the final act. This is a 1 t of my life, and I assure you the best part of it. It would be strange, indeed, if I had no private life, but J want to say that none of my pri vate life has ever been given to nlfehts of revelry. "M'lle Modiste is not an easy part, and when. I-am through with playing it I am weary. The night they say I was at this place you call Claremont I hur ried to my hotel and ate a baked ap ple. It took the waiter a long time to serve me, and I scolded him, saying that I was tired and wanted to retire." Thero is still a delightful accent to Madame Scheff's speech. She speaks English well until she gets a bit ex cited, and it is only then that she lapses In her native tongue. She Is Just a wee bit of a woman and free from the fuss and the feathers of the stage. She did not resort to tears and protest against what had been printed about her. Instead she was full of charity and explanations. Unlike most stars would have been, she was genuinely pleased with the ability that Miss Morrison displayed in taking her part and was enthusiastic In her praise. Madame Scheff, .in case she can get Mr. Dickson's permission, will sing .tonight. HAMLIN, TENOR, IS COMING Sings Here Dec. 12 and Seat Sale Opens Tuesday Morning.
