SHOW IS TRUE TO LIFE Real Cowboys Will Appear With Buffalo Bill's Exhibition. The first claim to recognition as an in stitution for educating the unlearned in American hiKtory which the management makes for Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World is the very genuineness of it all. Every thing concerned in the entertainment is as near authenticity as human Ingenuity and the unrestricted expenditure of money can make It. Historic in its ori gin. Buffalo Bill's Wild West has always maintained Its established record for gen uineness In all things. It will therefore be Interesting to lov ers of horseflesh to learn that there will be a display of broncho-busting during the progress of the exhibition when Buf falo Bill and his big organization appears In this city. The art of broncho-busting has engaged the most daring members of the cowboy fraternity since the days when cowboys were first an established necessity In some features of Western development. It is a most dangerous calling, and many lives have been sacri ficed in the conflict between the wild horse of the plains and the master hand which has attempted his subjection. There need be no fear but what the broncho-busting in Buffalo Bill's Wild West will be an exact reproduction of the original article, for it will be the genuine thing, and every time a cowboy mounts his horse he will take a great risk of broken bones. The cowboys will be real cowboys brought from the West ern wilds, where they have plied their avocation of herding cattle and busting bronchos all their lives. The world is seeing practically the last of this pictur esque type of Americans for the fencing of ths ranges Is fast doing away with their occupation. Northwestern People In Xew York.

Mrs. Sprinkle. BY ARTHUR A GREENE. (ff HE DEVIL!" said I to myself, as I I came away from the Bungalow matinee yesterday. "A remarkable play! Probably a great play! Possibly a good play!" And then I said it all over to myself again. As a novelty in theatricals, it has many things to recommend it. Nothing closely resembling it has ever been seen before, unless one finds a certain .similarity be tween it and Goethe's "Faust." It is as nearly what an ancient morality play might be. If It were brought down to this latest moment In modern garb and present-day settings. That it has created a furore Is the most natural of conse quences. That 'It has been and will con tinue to be much discussed both ways from the center Is alao one of the surest things you know. But whether It serves any good purpose and. has any more seri ous value than that of entertainment. I question. I am only sure of two things. I sat through every minute of It yester day and the Baker company gave a su perb performance. As a severe test of ability, both in acting and production, it goes beyond anything I have ever here- i IV I'J C H i ll lu.i w ........ I To begin with, the manuscript, which I the- play-brokers pirated from both the Savage and Flske productions less tnan three weeks ago in New York, only reached here on September 2. It was a bare manuscript without detail of inci dental "business" or other elaboration which might direct the producer. JuBt the dialogue. Donald Bowles took hold of it. without having seen a performance of the play, of course, and improvised all the details which are absolutely es sential to the performance. The result looks much like genius. The new stage director has certainly to be credited with an achievement. ' The drama Is preceded by a series of allegorical tableaux, Bowles Idea, by the way, which tends to prepare the audi ence for the story that is to come. These are quite well managed except that the young woman who poses had entirely too much rouge on at yesterday's session. The first act occurs in the studio of Frans Wslstedt. a successful young por trait painter. Madame Kranz, a young matron whom the artist has known as Meta. a childhood playmate and a former sweetheart, comes to the studio with her husband to sit for her picture. Meta hsd broken her engagement to Kranz six years before to marry Josef Kranx. a wealthy philanthropist, who had been Franz benefactor and had enabled him to get his art education. The two are left alone, the husband apparently re posing every confidence in their loyalty, although knowing the story of their for mer romance. The young people, after an exchange of commonplaces, find them selves drifting into dangerous waters, and only the young wife's strength pre vents mild indiscretion. Franz finds his better self awakened and leaves Meta in the outer room to prepare her costume for the portrait while he arranges the studio. Devil Makes Appearance. Left alone. Meta is suddenly confront ed by the most fascinating of all devils, who appears as if from nowhere, but ac tually from the depths of a mammoth armchair In which he pretends to have fallen asleep while the two were engaged in a dialogue. He professes to put a wrong construction on the meeting, and by his heartlessly cynical Insinuations succeeds in frightening Meta until she screams for Frans. The latter, mystlfiod at the presence of the suave, debonnalr stranger, finally recognizes him as an un known friend who had loaned him money at a Monte Carlo roulette table when all his own money had been lost, which money had beon almost miraculously lucky In winning back his losses and a considerable sum besides. The Intruder introduces himself as a man from nowhere who went everywhere and for convenience traveled under the Incognito of Dr. Kelmar. He proceeds in a good-humored way to tempt the young people with his vicious philosophy of life and finally succeeds In getting them into each other's arms for their first illicit kiss. This ends the first set. The second act occurs in the Krans villa during the progress of a fashionable ball on the night following the afternoon of the opening. The smiling. Immaculate ly groomed and exquisitely tailored Devil Is there a self-invited guest. For the furtherance of his designs, not touching the principal motif but merely as a part of the day's work, he proceeds to corrupt an Innocent young debutante and her un spoiled boy sweetheart. He Induces the boy to drink wine and Introduces him to a woman of hectlo garb and record who disappears with him In the mazy whirl of a waits. He then appropriates the CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND IN PARK BLOCK CLOSES FOR THE SEASON Final Saturday Before Opening of Schools Made Occasion for Celebration. Samples of Handicraft Shown. BY NANCY LEE. ABOUT 100 little children, embracing all nationalities, gathered together Saturday afternoon at the Chil dren's Playground, on the Park Mocks bounded by Davis and Everett streets, to celebrate the closing for the Bummer months of that delightful rec reation ground, where so many happy hours have passed. In honor of ths event the various Chinese, Japanese, In dian. American, Syrian and colored chil dren were attired in their brightest col ors, their faces radiating with smiles, all eagerly awaiting -the presentation, of prizes which were given for the beet ef forts in needlework and basket-making. As is commonly known, two of the Park blocks are under the direction of the People's Institute, where every manner of playground paraphernalia dear to the heart of the child has been installed. In cluding all types of swings and see-saws, baseball grounds for boys, sand piles, etc. The mothers, too. are as much In terested as the little tots and spend many hours under the shady trees, fashioning garments for their small charges and watching the little ones at play. Mrs. Bertha Davis, who Is loved by both the girls and boys, has been In at tendance each afternoon, offering sym pathy. If it Is so desired, entering Into the spirit of the games and Instructing the children in needlework. In this. Mrs. Davie Is assisted by Mrs. J. W. Vogan, who also Instructs both boys and girls In the art of basket-making. Mrs. E. B. Coman has volunteered her assistance and is frequently seen instructing basketry work, assisted by many of ths prominent society girls. Too much cannot be said of the excel lent work accomplished by the People' Institute and the splendid influence offered for both boys and girls. Different afternoons are devoted to teaching needle work, embroidering, and basket-making. A large awning stretched on poles offers a shady place for ths little workers and also enables them to have the advantage of fresh air. This same canopy was yes terday artistically decorated by the chil dren with fragrant boughs and wild flowers, and on a neatly-arranged table were the samples of needle . craft for which attractive prizes were offered by the judges, which Included Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett. Mies Valentine Prichard. the superintendent of the People's In stitute, Mrs. James Failing. Mrs. L. Allen Lewis. Miss Mae Falling. Mrs. B. B. Coman and Mrs. C. E. Curry. Great Interest was manifested among the ' children in the awarding of tha prizes for the best specimens and for the best form, workmanship and designing In basketry. Among the samples were .re-, markably good examples of lingerie hats, made of eyelet and French embroidery, shirtwaists and some Ingenious doll clothes. One small colored girl was given a priie for the most artistically dressed doll, which was uniquely attired .as an Indian In an elaborate brown leather costume. Other types of foreign doll clothes were cleverly represented, among them Chinese, Scotch lassies and Esquimaux types. Many generous donations have been given the Institute this past year by private Individuals and more are prom ised the coming year. Here let me add. there is great room for volunteer work ers among the Portland women. There Is no other society In Portland today where a local philanthropist could better turn his attention for the charming sur roundings and healthful environment Is building better citizens for ths rising generation. little girl to himself and poisons her mind with thinly veiled suggestions. He's a busy operator for a few moments later he has the fiancee of Frans wild with Jealousy over a supposed liason with Meta and this is no sooner done than he Is hard at It devising an imaginary scandal between himself and Meta which brings Franz to the verge of insanity; the husband, Josef Kranz. being in the mean time perfectly oblivious, as husbands are wont to be, reposing especial confidence in Dr. Kalmar. whom he believes to be engaged in philanthropic work. In the third and last act. the Devil brings Franz and Meta together In the studio again by means of an amorous letter which he influences Meta to write and, after a scene of some considerable effectiveness between the two with a sub scene between Sophia, the fiancee, and Bertha, the favorite model of Franz, he brings the trusting husband Into the room to see his wife in the arms of the artist. This entrance is unobserved by the couple who have succumbed to the Satanic ma chinations. The Devil gives a dagger into the hand of the husband and by panto mime directs him to kill Franz. As the husband raises the knife to strike down the unsuspecting artist from behind, the Devil restrains him and leads him to an adjoining room wU-re a groan and a fall give the spectator to understand that the husband has taken bis own life. The cur tain descends with the Devil laughing a few gloats over his work as his silk-hatted elegance disappears from the scene while the erring young lovers sit embracing. Xorgetful of all the world. The play Is by Ferenc Molnax, a young Bohemian writer, and abounds in cynical epigram. Some of it is reminiscent and the Influence of the Omar Khayyam philo sophy is through it all. It is a melo drama in ths more technical sense of the word and possesses a peculiar fascination. It is never offensive, although quite frank In Its treatment of delicate themes. It was produced very successfully at both the Bungalow and Lyric yesterday and both the Baker and Blunkall com panies acquitted themselves with great credit. It was presented In dozens of cities and It is probable that never in the history of the country has a play been given so many simultaneous per formances. The Impersonation of the title character by Sidney Ayres of the Baker Company was amazingly good. I did not particu larly care for the new leading man In last's week's bill but I was disarmed yes terday by his consummate acting of a very elusive part which offers every pos sible temptation to the actbr who acts too much. Ayres was always in the part, always the self possessed, smirking devil whose capacity for inducing general cussedness Is infinitely greater than the traditional one with the oyster fork. It was a most artistic piece of work and he need not fear comparislon with any of the stars who are likely to play it here some time en tour. Miss Jewel waa un usually effective and attractive as ths frail young wife and Donald Bowles did the Dart of Franz admirably, his work at the end of the first act being strictly class A. Misses ' Kent and Seymour in unimportant parts were sufficient unto the needs. Little Aliss itnet uiicneu Owen Blazler sprang into instant favor with their audience and were delightfully fresh and unstilted in their first parts or importance.

The Devil Brvln Blunkall Franz Walstedt Charles King jeseph Krans. ..........Carl Berch Otto, a servant Allyn Lewis Meta Wards Howard Sophie Margaret Mandervllla Bertha Florence Jewell THE Lyrio has grown ambitious, and this week offers something Infinitely batter than even the most meritorious of past efforts on the part of the excellent Blunkall Company. In Franz Molnar's play, "The Devil." as presented by the Lyric Stock Company, sex frailty is handled blandly and can didly. Briefly told, the story deals with a reincarnate Satan, and his hold upon two people at a crisis in their lives. Frans Walstiedt and Meta had been lovers, the boy a struggling artist, and the girl de pendent on a relative. Later Franz is enabled to complete his art career through the beneficence of a friend, and when he returns years later be finds Meta married to his benefactor. The two are brought together alter six years of respectable living, through the Instrumentality of Meta's husband. Joseph Kranz, who commissions his wife's for mer lover to paint her picture. At her first sitting In Franz' studto. . Satan ap pears, and throughout the three acts that follow he glorifies vice, makes a mockery of faithfulness and clean living, and sneers at the lawfulness and sacredness of the marriage relation. Credit for splendid acting belongs to Ervln Blunkall, who, as the Devil, enters keenly Into the temperament of his part and his clever delineation of the tempter incarnate bespeaks careful study as well as the art of a well-schooled actor. Miss Warda Howard gives a fascinating portrayal of Meta, the wife. Her inter pretation is given understanding, and she constantly forces the struggle the woman Is making in behalf of her better self, without losing the weakness of char acter so cleverly shown. Miss Howard's stage presence is most charming and she wears some exceedingly handsome gowns. Charles King, as the artist and lover, gives a sympathetic and closely-llmned portrayal. His work shows assiduous at tention to detail and Is well finished. Miss Florence Jewel, who by the way, is the young sister of Mies Isetta Jewel, receives much favorable comment for her sweetly demure and charmingly slnoere delineation of the cast-off little model. Bertha. Carl Berch as Meta's husband plays a conventional part In the ascribed conven tional manner. Distinctions are invidious, however, for all the characters are ad mirably interpreted. There are two settings, the handsome well-appointed studio and a much-glided reception hall. Captain Lawrence Cusanl - Vlsconte, master of the Italian warship Puglla, now in the harbor, who is a well-known critique, was a gut of the management, at the Lyric for the first performance of "The Devil." and announced himself as most pleased and entertainea. it The Little Prospector at The Star THE Star management has an unusual ly Interesting bill this week In the presentation of Miss "Chic" Perkins and her company, in "The Little ' Prospector."

There Is any amount of clean comedy to lighten it up. while the pathos and sentiment of the lines tend to make it a most interesting story. There Is a moving love story thread ing its way through the four acts of the play. To the main love story there is also the secondary one of the "wlddy" and the Sheriff. A fortune is at stake in the "Chuck Luck" mine, and this supplies the motive for such wicked plotting as develops in the drama. Miss Perkins, as Kitty Col well, in the title role is a very clever little actress who fives a clean and charming delinea tion of a wholesome independent West ern girl. She renders a finished portrayal of a rather difficult part and is at all times enthusiastically received. Mattie Perkins, as Bridget O'Dowd. is essentially a widow with her country's wit. She, with Jim Baugh as Sheriff Owens, furnish the comedy element of ths play. Dale Devereaux, in the part of Harry Mevers the young collegian, lumped im mediately Into public favor and made him self liked by his audience as tne neroic young lover. Luella Goodrl, as the hand some adventuress, and Walfred W. Wil son, in the character of the inevitable villain, both appear advantageously. The character types peculiar to a mining town are introduced. Edward Willis, as Doo Colwell, a misanthrope and Kitty's father. is good; Frank G. King, who portrays tne character of Hank Tregresser; the man with the yellow stripe, gives an especially clever piece of acting, and Walter Douglas, as the Judge, Is most amusing. Ail in all "The Little Prospector" Is a well-acted and well-staged production. pll Grease paints and professionals' sup les at Woodard. Clarke & Co. PERSONAL MENTION. Mayor J. F.
