. It will connect with Welches. Rhododen

the animal escaped a few days ago at
Gresham. Mr. Doane owns and operates
a woodsawing machine, and while saw
ing wood Thursday In some way the
horse's tall caught in the shaft to which
the whirling saw is attached. The horse
was rapidly drawn to the saw, the tall
being wound around the shaft like thread
around a spool. For a moment the
perilous situation of the horse was not
noticed, but at the instant the saw was
within a few inches of the horse's hip
one of the men stopped the engine. The
tail of the animal was wound tightly
around the shaft, and it took some time
before It could be unwound and the horse
released.

Astoria to consult with his deputies who

CAN see now where this town Is going
A to have a severe case of the googles
over that Kolb A Dill show at the Hellig
It had the audienoa which saw It at the
Heillg last night so dippy with delight
that It forgot to quarrel with the street'
car conductors on the way home. "Lone
some Town" with the funniest team of
Dutch comedians aow known to science,
is what Doctor Chapman would terra "a
reverberating holler." But to speak less
formally, I desire to bear witness that
Clarence Kolb. or C. William Kolb, as
he now says It, and Max Dill are here to
get what they couldn't carry borne the
last time they were here. Even If the
children have to go without shoes this
Winter, you should buy the best there's
left, even If It's behind a post.
The "welcome" sign has been on the
mat for these two eminent public bene
factors ever since that memorable run
of theirs during the Lewis and Clark
fair, of blessed memory; and the keys
to the cellarette and humidor hang just
to the left of the vestibule doors. Re
turning with far the best support they
have ever had and unquestionably the
best vehicle Kolb and Dill received a
greeting last night that was worth com
ing a long way for. It it be possible,
they are funnier than formerly, Maude
Lambert, the prima donna. Is a singer
from Songland, and In addition for good
looks from slipper to coiffure, has any
other woman who has frou-froued across
the Heillg stage since Billie Burke was
here, beaten to an attenuated murmur.
You'll get dlrxy If you don't watch some
thing as ugly as Kolb while she's on the
stage. Then, to go a little deeper Into
the merits of the case, there Is the choc
olate-creamlest chorus; my word! Also
there Is Billy Clifford, an awfully nice
boy. Then there are some more princi
pals worth looking over and a lot of
sartorial Joys.
You will gather, dear reader. If you
read the paper this morning, that I am
endeavoring with these few feeble I
marks to convey the Impression that
thought rather well of that show last
ntght. Strange as it may seem, there Is
almost a plot to "Lonesome Town." ThtB
concerns a boom-busted town In Cali
fornia called Watts, after the founder,
an eccentric Individual, who owned the
whole blooming works, some 20 years
before the delicate mauve dawn upon
which the Cascaret sign arises at the
beginning of the first act. Well. Watts.
absently-mtndedly. goes away somewhere
and dies, leaving no relict nor progeny.
It develops that several millions of dol
lars In accumulated rents from the ten
ants of the town are compounding for
the use and benefit of the first heir who
turns up with a genuine strawberry
mark for Identification purposes. Kolb
and Dill and Clifford, In the capacities
of lean and fat near-Teutons and fly-
boys from Sixth avenue, respectively, ap
pear In the guise of conspirators to se
cure the town and the fullness thereof.
They overhear the story of the accumu
lated wealth from a low comedian Town
Marshal, and Kolb Is then recast for
the part of the son of Watts, the three
to work together. Some three or four
others get onto the plan of claiming the
estate also, Including the fascinating
widow who has It all but copped in the
last act. when the village lassie, who
believes that the goods are hers, thanks
to a missing will (not copyrighted nov
elty), which she has found in the shade
of the old apple tree.
However, I go too far. This all allows
latitude for two hours and a half of
screamingly amusing nonsense and a
dosen or more bully musical numbers.
Miss Lambert has a voice that Is worth
a big salary and she sings the familiar
"Just Some One" and "When the Moon
Plays Peek-a-Boo" so well that one
wishes she bad something a little less
shopworn In her repertoire. She is an
actress of merit and as I have mildly
Indicated, not so bad for beauty. 'Gee,
But This Is a Lonesome Town" and the
eccentric dance that goes with It, Is
perhaps the best thing that the stars do
although they are continuously on the job
and looking for more work.
The ensemble song, "I'm Running After
Nancy." Is likely to become locally ap
plied to many Installment pianos and
grill orchestras. It's genuinely catchy.
The show Is not so analytical nor ab
struse as "Rosmersholm" and the meth
ods are not so repressed as Henry Mil
ler's, but for what It pretends to be It
is a pippin. There will be a solid week
of It.

APPIBST in comedy, the Baker
Stock Company has struck its stride
this week in "The Glided Fool." the pret
ty comedy that Nat Goodwin made so
popular years ago. It Is the first dip of
the popular stock company Into this
form of the drama this season. Not
only are the players well cast, but the
production Is excellent.
Henry Guy Carleton's four-act comedy
Is probably too well known to need
analysis, for millions of people have en
joyed It The plot has to do with a bank
er who loots the trust funds In his keep
ing and ruins his partner. Before the
crash of the firm he spreads) his net
before the feet of a young man with more
money than sense who Is enmeshed in the
final disaster. The love of "The Gilded
Fool" for the daughter of the bank
wrecker's partner makes a pretty story,
and the fortunate opening of the fool's
eyes to the status of the firm after he
has been made the "Co. and a flash of
common horse sense that makes mm
turn the bear movement against the
stocks his Arm is boosting to his own
advantage by selling short, are features
of the play.
Sidney Ayres, the company a new lead
ing man, Is Chancey Short. "The Gilded
Fool." He does not hit it off very wen
In the first act, but his work In the sec
ond and the later scenes, after the fool
tint himself. Is all that the part re
quires. It may be doubted If Nat Good
win himself outshines Ayres in the sec
ond act, which Is particularly well done
and Is the best of the play.
Miss Jewel shines serenely throughout
the performance, like the star she is. Her
part is that of Margaret riutnven, wnom
"The Gilded Fool" woos and wins. She
and the other feminine members of the
company wear some handsome gowns.
James Gleason is convincing as Ban
nlster St ranee, the crooked banker. He
Is not at all the melodramtlc villain and
his performance is finished and smooth.
He has a part suited to nis Dest worn.
Earl Dwire does the honest banner,
ruined br his partner, well.
Wnilam Gleason. the Scotland Yard de
tective In the guise of a parson Intent
on saving the heathen, who runs down
Strange and takes him back to England
a prisoner for a crime similar to that
committed against Ruthven, gives an in
terpretation that Is uniform with his
usual good work. Mlna Crolius Gleason.
who Is Interested tn missionary work and
constantly deplores the degeneracy of
the times, is very good.
Marlbel Seymour Is cast happily In a
Jolly sweetheart part that just suits
her. She has a love affair of her own
with Donald Bowles. Louise Kent,
Mrs. Ruthven, makes a charming matron
while R. E. Bradbury makes a hit
Morgan, the Impassive Ruthven butler.
Howard Russell, as Perkins, Short's
valet, and the other popular members of
the company contribute to the excellent
performance. The play Is handsomely
staged and the two crowded houses that
saw It yesterday gave the comedy their
entire approval.
The Gilded Fool" will run at the Bun
galow all this week.
BY ARTHUR A GREENE.
IF THE memory serves right this Is
the third annual visit of the Chioago-
made musical comedy, "The Royal Chef,"
and It Is noteworthy that the show has
been kept so well up to Its original
standard. It is a meritorious piece, on
stereotyped lines It Is true and contain
ing nothing particularly clever in Its
book, but the lyrics are many of them
bright, and Ben Jerome wrote some good
topical and sentimental songs for It.
Three or four of the song numbers have
become Nationally famous, especially
JLet Me Go Back," "O'Reilly" and "In
the Morning." Unfortunately the fatigu
ing old joke about the Japs taking e
well-known brand of patent medicine and
few other bewhlskered mots are re
tained. If the management would confer
a favor they would lop them off.
The cast this year is practically the
same as came here last season. William
H. Conley, the Chicago Alderman. Is im
pressed as the Raja's cook and Julia
Curtis continues as Kitty. Conley Is en
tertaining all the .time, managing to stir
the risibilities In the role of eccentric
German comedian, long familiar through
the Pixley-Luders' pieces. He sings his
songs well enough, as well in fact as
one expects of a musical comedian, and
he gets all that Is coming to him In the
way of applause. Miss Curtis is a viva
clous little soubrette whose imitations
continue to be one of the features of the
show. Her Impersonations of Mabel Hlte
and Eddie Foy display ber talents as a
mimic advantageously. Donald Mac-
Kenzie, who Is more like DeWolf Hopper
than any other man on the stage, Is also
a holdover from last year in the part of
the versatile Prime Minister. Earl Stall
Is a newcomer who has a moderately
pleasing baritone voice, although It lacks
volume. Mary Malateata Is a very pretty
Princess Teto but her affectation rather
mars her performance.
The best voices are tn the chorus, there
being an especially good tenor In the
male section. The chorus girls are an at
tractive aggregation and are excellently
costumed. The piece has never been seen
here before at popular prices and Is prac
tically as good in every particular as
when It commanded top-notch admittance
prices. It will doubtless serve to draw
large audiences to the Baker this week
and no one .can honestly complain that
he hasn't received his money s worth.

HIS week's bill at the Star Theater
furnishes an agreeable surprise to
patrons of that playhouse. In the first
place. Miss Georgia Harper, in the title
role of "Nell Gwynne." brings to that
stage an actress of rare ability, both
natural and cultivated. She Is by far
the best leading woman seen In the part
In this city for years. Besides being
blessed with beauty and grace, she has
so studied the character of Net!, as told
In the old plays, that all the audience
see protrayed a life-like and reasonable
reproduction of the woman who rose
from a frurt-gn-r on the streets of Lon
don to a position of power in the affairs
of the nation.
Mlea, Harper possesses the charms of
person and the Intelligence that make
of her performance a delight to the eye
and an appeal to the good Judgment of
her audience.
From the time she tripped along the
street offering her wares to the grand
dames and attending swains, to when she
snapped her fingers out the window of
her "chair" at her baffled enemies and
consigned them all to perdition in the
least possible words and most readily
understood terms, she kept attention
centered on herself and bad the sym
pathy of all the men and envy, probably,
of all the women that followed her
through her tribulations and ultimate
triumph.
There are soma phases of Nell
Gwynne's character which. In the pres
ent age, are not approved In polite so
ciety, but to any who, through reading,
know of the loose morals of the period
in which she lived, her mode of life can
almost be condoned. Miss Harper "side
steps" nicely when she gets on thin Ice
and wtille preserving all the foibles.
sharp wit and wiles of one of the old-
time favorites of the English court and
people. She enacts a character that has
more of good than bad In its composition.
The staging of the play is the best seen
at the Star in years. "Props" are cor
rect as to date, and costuming likewise.
according to the best traditions. The
supporting company. Is quite adequate in
most Instances and among the princi
pals is much above the average of road
companies:
The play to on for ths weak and tt Is
a safe prediction to make that good
staed audiences wfll greet the players at
every performance.

TOWN WANTS NEW DEPOT
TV T both performances yesterday
Ja the Lyric of "Tennessee's Pardner,"
the theater was filled to capacity, drawn
thither for two excellent reasons the
popularity of the play and the popularity
of the little actress who, this week, for
the first time In her young life, appeared
In a grown-up part. Mamie Haslam,
known to Portland theater-goers well
and favorably In second juvenile parts,
came pretty close to Jumping right up
to a position among her older and more
experienced sisters. At both afternoon
and ' evening performances little Mamie
was about buried under the big bunches
and baskets of floral offerings sent over
the footlights by her friends.
In the character of Tennessee the
little woman brings Into actual exist
ence the exquisite conceit of Bret Harte,
and her mastery of the soft Southern
accent Is an evidence of painstaking
study and rehearsal. She looks and acts
the part, is commendation she earned
and deserves.
Probably few tn the audience but that
had seen the play before or had read
the story, but the enthusiasm indicated
that "Tennessee's Pardner" is destined
a long life of never-ending Interest. All
the well-known characters were capably
done by the members of the Blunkall
Company, the head of the company, par
ticularly doing a finished bit of work as
Caleb Swan, "carddealer, legitimate and
high-toned." In his scenes with his
pardner his love affair was developed
naturally and at the same time humor
ously, for the poor fellow, as will be
recalled, "didn't know what the deuce
was the matter with him."
Miss War da Howard, as Kate Cornish,
gives an exceedingly good portrayal of
the woman who had resolved to live a
straight" life after having been the evil
tnfluenoe of her rascally brother. This
undesirable part Is cast to. Ermen Seavey,
who withstands the hisses without re
sentment. The leading comedy Is done
by Allyn Lewis and Lillian Griffith, who
got the laugh whenever they appeared.
Bercb, King and Love cast to char
acters always found in stage mining
camps are kept up to standards set
years ego.
With Miss Haslam's success and the
excellence of the play throughout, the
popularity of. the opening performances
yesterday Is certain to continue and to
nil the Lyric for the balance of the week.
