Jack James .....Sydney Ay res Archie Toddleby Howard Russell Zebedee Foekett. .. .William Gleason Col. Pasquale Gaileg-her. William Dills Algernon Entwistle. . . James Gleason Samuel Slapton John Thorn Robert Shreve William Wolbert Mr. Griddletop Ronald Bradbury First Porter Walter Renfort Second Porter Floyd Lynch Gloria Grant, known as "Glittering; Gloria" Miss Maribel Seymour Mrs. Jack James... Miss Louise Kent Borothy Kenworthy. . Luclle Webster Sarah .'...Miss Hazel Jewel JOHN JAY HARRISON. IT CERTAINLY is to laugh at "Glitter ing Gloria' whenever seen; it is to laugh without a chance to compose your features for two hours, if you see the Baker Stock Company do the comedy. Whenever, at too infrequent intervals. Manager Baker scars Maribel Seymour, and that talented little lady gets an op portunity to Interpolate some of her musical compositions, the Baker audience is due for a genuine treat. They get it this week at the Bungaiow. "Glittering Gloria" is the sort of thing that was created with but one object iu view to tickle the audience. As the ludicrous situations follow each other In quick succession, and the funny lines are rattled off, the only escape from threa tened hysteria is to read the advertise ment of a tombstone-maker that appears on the drop curtain between acta. And even ' that lugubrious spectacle has but temporary effect. The Baker people need suffer nothing in comparison with the big road shows that do farce-comedy, for with Miss Kent. Miss Webster, the Glea sons, father and son; Howard Russell. Sydney Ayres. William Dills and Ronald Bradbury supporting Maribel Seymour, it would be difficult to get together a more competent company of actors. "Glittering Gloria" is the "pet name" the London public gives to Gloria Grant, a favorite actress, and the effort of one of her most ardent admirers to present her with a diamond necklace without the knowledge of the donor's wife, bring more different kinds of laughable situations than usually fall to one play. Jn the second act. Miss Seymour in troduces a new song of her own. "It's the Hat that Makes the Woman,'' with a refrain that fits the personality of the singer "Under the brim he finds an all right girl." In doing the song Miss Sey mour wears, to illustrate the verses, four or five of probably the most ''stunning" creations in feminine headgear 'ever seen in Portland. There is a high school girl hat, a chorus girl hat and then to cap the climax a directolre "dream" that brought audible "ahs" from the women and girls in the audience and suppressed "gees" from the male escorts. Miss Seymour should command JI.OuO.OOO a week as a designer of effective hats for "the all right girls." Another hit by Miss Seymour is the whistly song and chorus, it s Nice to Be a Sweetheart." With Miss Hazel Jewel to guide them, the girl chorus does some really first-class work, and it has added attractiveness in being composed of pretty and young girls. Donald Bowles is missed from the cast, as is also Miss Jewel and Mlna Crolius Gleason. Mr. Bowies and Mr. Dwire have their hands full behind the drops, and their efforts are seen in the promptness of handling the stage settings and in the admirable effects - produced. Gloria's apartments, the jewelry store and the railroad station are all good. At tba conclusion of the run of the play Saturday night, there will be a regretful sentiment expressed "Sic transit -Gloria' mundi." A Millionaire Tramp at the Star AT THE Star Theater the return to "straight" melodrama yesterday met with the approval of packed houses at both performances. On the playbill "A Millionaire Tramp" is named a comedy drama. There is quite a lot of comedy, to be sure, by town character types, and in the early scenes the tramp raises a luugh now and then with droll comments on life as he finds it. Duke Voile has the title role, and as his character calls for a down-and-out actor, he has an op portunity to display his ability in the last two acts, where he is presumed to re-establish himself, after five years as a tramp. His support is nothing to brag of, or at least the book gives the others small opportunity. The one exception is Lorenzo Muzner, who. as the villagG doctor, succeeds in making of the character one of the blood-and-thunder type of man, about as far removed from the mild-mannered country doctor as can be imagined, but he has the stuff in him to make a "bully" heavy villain in a drama that calls for; "When Harry Kennedy ap pears on yonder crag and waves the lantern three times, 'tis the signal that the girl is ours!" The doctor thinks to marry the heiress, a member of a traveling theatrical com pany, by shewing her the supposed grave of her lover who disappeared years be fore, and who turns out to be the tramp. The schemo fails, but the tramp comes near not gaining Ills reward for reforma tion, but through a bit of careful manipu lation and forgetfulness of past events he comes out on top, with the doctor man buried under his load of infamy. Misses (dramatic license) Gertrude Steele. EJsa Minet an'd Theresa Belmont are the women in the cast, the other men taking characters of the city marshal, hotel porter, leading man in the traveling troup. the manager, the village wiseacre and the parson. The piece is quite creditably staged and Is on for the week, with the customary matinees. Next week "Bunco in Arizona" is announced as the attraction. IS NOT TOTAL SURPRISE Friends of Tr. Wilson Had Inkling He Would Marry. Although the wedding last Saturday of Mrs. Maud Akin T?fft and Dr. Clarence Tru "Wilson, pastor of the Centenary Methodist Church, who safely passed the 37th milestone of his life without a wife, came as a surprise to many of their friends, there had been persistent rumors for months that Dr. Wilson was engaged. Kven when he was the pastor of the Grace Methodist Church, more than a year asro, a rrmor was afloat as to his matrimonial Intentions. Then the rumor came to a few favored ones that the date had been set in September, but the time, passed, and Centenary's pastor re mained a bachelor. It was during his pastorate at the Grace Methodist Church that Dr. Wilson was called upon from time to time by Dr. J. The Policyholders Company Is Best for Or-gonfifc Whiteomb Brougher. of the White J Temple, to engage with him in debates J upon various phases of married life. Dr. Wilson invariably gave ms vien ... l e ..-Kile. TW 1 the standpoint. 01 a uae.oe.oi. Brougher told of the happiness Incident to the conjugal state. But with his transfer to the Centenary Methodist Church Dr. Wilson lost the opportunity for these debates, into which he entered with much spirit. Neither Is it likely that he now desires to exploit the advantages of being a bachelor. Dr. and Mrs. Wilson are now in Hood River, where they went for a ten days visit with friends. Dr. Wilson arranged to have Rev. M. C. Reed, a local preaches, fill his pulpit-yesterday. Pleading that his health would not permit him to preach next Sundav. Dr. Wilson, before the wed ding, persuaded Rev. J. W. MacDotlgall, of the Mount Tabor Methodist Church, to preach for him next Sunday. , DK. BltOVGHER SAYS FEW ARE GUILTLESS. I Iii Business and Society. He Finds Commandment Is Generally Violated. "Modern Stealing a Fine Art' was Dr. J. Whiteomb Brougiier's subject at the White Temple last night. His- text was the eight commandment of the decalogue, "Thou shalt not steal." He also quoted Matt. vii:12 and Kph. lv:JS. The pastor said: Under the present competitive system in the commercial world, the temptation to dishonesty tn eome form or other Is exceed ingly difricult to resist. Adulterations of various kinds, whether in cloth or frro ceries or other thtnRs, is simply a form of stealing. To seek to get the prices or a genuine article for that which i efmply a pretense 1b absolutely dishonest. Brad Ftreet reported once that SO per cent of the failures during two years were due to am honest v. Misrepresentation on the part of the buyer and a pretense of selling at a cut price when full value for the article is being received la stealing. Commercial thefts are also committed by defrauding the laborer of his wa;es. Every person born into this world is entitled to the opportunity of making an honeot Jiving. Honest work de mands honest wages. To take advantage of the misfortunes of men and women or their necessities and thus compel them to work on starvation wages is to be both dishonest and oppressive. Living beyond one's means and contract ing debti beyond any reasonable possibillty of paying them are exceedingly prominent forms of stealing. Ordering things for which you have no money to pay and for which you know you will not have the money to pay !s to be Just as much of a thief as If you had stolen outright. Those who continue to bo in debt when- they know they cannot pay their obligations, )ot only injure the seller, but they have robbed the entire commu nity. A nored business man told me once that by running a "spot-each" store h could reduce his prices one-half. By the credit system he was compelled to charge those who did pay their debts enough to make up for those who did not. There is but one honest rule for any honest man: Live within your income, pay as you go and deny yourself the luxuries that you cannot afford. There seems to be something In the na ture of an organization that tends to make the Individual forget his responsibility. Many a man will consent for the company of which he is a member to do things which he would not do as a private Indi vidual. For this reason it is said that cor porations have no consciences. It is too frequently true that when a great trust is formed and gets absolute con-trol of a. cer tain arilcle, that corporation becomes an organized band of robbers. They seek to corner the market upon articles of necessity and by so doing force the people to pay exorbitant prices for the absolute necessities of life. Now this Is downright stealing Just as much so as if a man had a dozen other men In the corner of a room and at the point of a revolver threatened their lives unless they bought their way out at his own price, "Bearing the market." "bulling the market," "cornering the mar ket." "watering stocks" and several other Wall-street expressions are only synonyms for the term "stealing." To buy things in the cheapest market and sell in the dearest Is simply a form of high-way robbery. I find a bakery with an over-stock of bread. I buy at the lowest possible price. I find a miner who is just coming from the mines, but has lost his way and is nearly starving to death. I sell him my bread but I make him pa y the h ighest possible price. This is what the world calls business, but It Is highway robbery and Is an absolute contra diction of the spirit of Jesus Christ. The modern expression, "graft," is an effort to cover with a new name ertain forms of fittftalfng. It is a sad fact that recent revelations and exposures of offi cials have presented to the world a start ling condition of affairs. And yet. the ex posure and conviction of recreant officials, both in the Government, In banks and in surance and trust companies, are excellent signs of a return to a better day. Men can no longer hope to misappropriate trust funds, accept bribes and rob the Govern ment without being publicly disgraced and punished. There has been a great lack of conscience in this matter of official posi tion. Streetcar companies put a metal conscience on conductors and make them "rirg tip" the faree. , Cash registers are placed In stores in order to make the con scle'nce of the clerks work correctly. We may have to put a metal conscience on our city officials so as to make them "ring up" when temptations to graft and bribery are presented. All gambling and betting are stealing. It is simply an effort to receive something for nothing. It Ls remarkable how prevalent the gambling spirit is. Children play mar tiles or match pennies for "keeps." Young men and women risk their money on the outcome or a race or games of baseball or football. Women's card clubs lose their zest if prizes are not at stake. Men gam ble In stocks and In a thousand other ways. Jerry McAuley, the great rescue mission worker, said he had seen many a drunkard saved, many a libertine purified, many a common thief made honest, but of ail the gamblers he had known he could count on his fingers the number that had been saved. This form of stealing seems to harden the feelings and sear the conscience and damn- the soul. Gambling Is Just as much stealing in high society as in low, at a church fair as at a gambling den. I The place and object do not change the na ture of the act. WHEREJTO DINE. All the delicacies of the season at the Portland Restaurant: fine . rivate apart ments for ladles. 305 Wash., near Firth.
