MUSICAL comeales and extrava
ganzas of all sorts have come
and gone In the past ten years: some
with plots, some without, many nice
ones, others not even near-nice; some
brimful of music, others with not a
claim to tunefulness, n few of them
written for the chorus girls, and a
great many more serving as pegs on
which to hang the few picked voices
of the principals but It ha remained
for our old friend. "The Trlnce of
l'llsen." at the Hclllg last evening, to
show us what a musical, play really
l. and what actual Joy and Interest
Is yet to be found In this delightful
entertainment.
Truth to tell. this brightest and
best work of Gustav Luders and Frank
I'lxley seems to have set a mark In
this special field of performance that
will tax the ability of other authors
and composers to reach. For certaln
lv the music and the wit of "The
Prince of I'lleen" are aa glowing, as
delightful as of old. and to the one who
has heard some of the "others," this
one appeals most forcefully.
Of course, the moving spirit and piv
otal character Is Hans Wagner, the Cin
cinnati brewer, who Is mistaken for
the Prince of Pllsen. and In the role
Jess Dandy was easily the star last
evening. His very personality exudes
humor. His Inimitable accent, cheru
bic countenance, waddle and Infectious
chuckle, all combined to make his por
trayal a masterpiece In comedy. The
prees agents say he actually enjoys
having the cold water trickle all over
him "n the famous and laughable scene
where he cools his fevered brow by
standing In the fountain.
As usual, this part of the perform
ance was a good-sized riot with last
night's audience, althqugh It's safe to
say over two-thirds of the auditors had
seen the act before.
Tha famous-also song of Mr. Dandy's
about "In Cln-clnn-attl" has now be
come a comedy classic and was received
as such.
Frances Cameron, a striking bru
nette, who was the Sonla with an
Kastern "Merry Widow" company,
makes a fascinating and flirtatious
Mrs. Crocker. Her singing voice Is
smooth, yet lively and she uses her
vocal resources with intelligence.
Kdward Mora, In the role of the real
Trince. and Ivor Andersen, the naval
lieutenant, both sing well. Lillian
Laweon. a picturesque and dusky dam
sel. Is Sldonie of the twinkling toes
and dances delightfully. Petite, Dor
othy Dellrnore Is the gay little bell
hop, and Vera Blair Stanley, who haa a
aweet voice, big In spots. Is Han's
daughter Nellie: In. Dresden china ef
fect of pink and blue ana goia.
olive North, as the Vassar girl, sings
pleasingly, and It Is she who gives us
the favorite Message oi mo iu-u.
Everybody dancea and dances well.
Robert O'COnner as Francois the llthe-
llmber concierge of the Hotel Interna
tionale dances perhaps best of all, al
though Walter Catlett. who impersonates
Lord Shrlmpton. "and an mat aort. or
bosh, don't you know." makes himself
an especial favorite with his nimble
steps.
The chorus Is almost as Interesting as
the sokilsts. and seems quickly reapon
Ive to the bston of the mimical director,
Gustav Hlnrichs.
The scenery, the co-tumes fresh and
pretty, and the etaglr.g are samples of
Henry W. Savage's best.
"The Prince of Pllsen" will continue at
the Heilig until Saturday evening, with a
matinee aW on that day.

Balfour Pits Rosebery Plan
Against Demand for Abol
ition of Veto.
SITUATION IS LESS ACUTE
Liberal!- In Conciliatory Mood and
"Willing to Give Iiords More Time.
"American Dollars" Will Be
Tory Campaign Slogan.
I5NDON. Nov. IT. Arthur J. Balfour's
speech at Nottingham today made It
plainly evident that the Unionist party
Is fjmly committed to Lord Roscbery's
scheme for reform of the House of
Jords and that otherwise the Unionist
platform ptanita the same as at tho last
general election in all its planks. The
npeaker referred only incidentally to the
home-rule question, but Indicated suf
ficiently that he was in aa complete op
position to It as ever.
Thua the Unionist election policy in the
main will be to pit reform of the House
of Lord against the Liberals' demand
for abolition of the veto power of the
Lords.
Lords Adopt Hosebery Plan.
The Rosebery plan, based on the
Earl's resolution offered laot March, was
moved today In tho Hou of Lords, sit
ting as a committee of the whole. The
resolutions were adopted without divi
sion. They were:
First That the House of Lords shall
consist of Lords of Parliament; (a)
chosen by the whole body of hereditary
peers from among themselves, and by
nomination by the crown; b) those
sitting bv virtue of their offices and
qualifications held by thorn, and (c)
tnose chosen from outside.
Second That the term of tenure of
all Lords In Parliament shall be the
same, except In the case of those sit
ting ex-offlclo. who would sit only as
long as they hold office by reason of
which they sit.
Speaking In support of his resolu
tions. Lord Rosebery said he believed
that on these principles It would be
possible to reform the upper chamber
to a large extent, solve a great prob
lem and maintain the ancient constitu
tion of the country without the con
vulsions Incident to a reform by gen
eral elections.
Commons' Tyranny Feared.
In th case of a disagreement be-ta-een
the two Houses, the dispute
should be settled by a Joint conference,
or In the event of the failure of the
conference, by referendum.
There could be no question as to the
choice of the country between a re
formed House of Lords and the In
tolerable tyranny of a single chamber,
he said.
Lord Curzon strongly urged the adop
tion of the resolutions as a practical
and generous plan for a reformed up
per house. In which the hereditary ele
ment would not exercise a preponder
ate Influence.
Baron Courtney, who Is regarded as
a constitutional authority and who Is
a staunch Liberal, thought the resolu
tions vague, and disagreed with the
view of the government that, the con
stitutional conference having failed. It
was Impossible for parliament to reach
an agreement. He deplored a threat
had been made to take the matter out
of the hands of Parliament and to ap
peal to the man -In the street.
The resolutions were carried without
division.
The situation between the opposing
forces tonight appears less aggravated.
There Is a disposition on the part of tha
Liberal side to give the peers a longer
time to debate the veto bill, posslbly
even to the extent of admitting a rea
sonable amendment, provided this did
not Interfere with the principle of the
bill.
Mr. Balfour has now set the seal of
approval on the adoption of "Ameri
can dollars," as a Unionist election mot
to. At the annual Conference of Con
servative Associations, which Mr. Bal
four addressed at Nottingham, Henry
Chaplin. Unionist member of Parlia
ment for Wimbledon and former presi
dent of the local government board,
denounced the government which, he
said, was handing over the rule of the
country to "the sworn enemy of Eng
land, who. with gold of foreign mil
lionaires, aspires to dictate our destin
ies." "American Dollar" Made Issne.
The Standard. In an editorial de
clares there would be no constitutional
crisis but for this American subsidisa
tion of the Nationalists.
"It Is Redmond's not Asqulth's cri
sis," says the paper. "Redmond's pa
trons ar not the poor, like Parnell's,
but the affluent. It Is the American
business man. the capitalist and mil
lionaire who are financing the Home
Rule party for purposes of their own.
They do not love England, and they
want to prevent th adoption of tariff
reform."
BALFOCR octlixes views
Commons Should Dominate and
People Be Arbitrators.
- NOTTTNGILVir. England. Nov. 17.
Arthur J. Balfour, leader of the opposi
tion In the Houea of Commons; addressed
a political gathering here tonight,
TarlfT reform, he said, Mill etood as
the great constructive policy to which
the Unionists are committed, but If the
benefits therefrom were purchasable only
by throwing the burden on the wage
earning clause1, he would not touch It.
He considered that the Houw of Com
mons should b the dominant element In
a two-chamber system and that dissen
sions arising between th two chambers
eihould be submitted for the people's arbi
tration. In the opinion of the speaker, the
House of Lords membership should be
reduced to men of public service. There
should also be an element elected by
the peers and another element, equal to
the other two. representing the great
bodies of public opinion. He opposed a
wholly elective second chsmber.

SAYS HEILIG IS WORRIED
Each Tarty to New Agreement Gives
Different Version Cort Faction
Intimates Klaw Is Bluffing to
Cover His. Retreat.
"Just saw The Oregonlan of Novem
ber 12. Ilelllg is a brave fighter at
long range," wired Marc Klaw, of Klaw
&. Krlanger. to The Oregonlan from
New York yesterday. "He waited till
I got 3000 miles away before he opened
his mouth. When our theater opens
lu Portland, the public will have an.
opportunity of judging whefner he has
six stars to our one. and as to the
merit of the respective attractions
playing the two houses.
"Heills-s assumed Indifference Is
funny, considering that he nearly
swallowed a toothpick the night that
I told him we Viad signed the lease for
a Portland theater, and he walked mo
around in the rain telling me how dis
satisfied he was with the present status
of affairs and saying that he would
come East and ask a few questions of
John Cort Just as soon as hia theater
was opened. Bvldently the hope of
getting some of our attractions this
Winter kept him from making the trip
East."
Statements Do Xot Agree.
There Is a decided conflict between
the statements of the parties to this
theatrical row between Klaw & Krlan
ger and Yno Theatrical Owners' Asso
ciation, headed by John Cort, of Se
attle. From Cort headquarters has
come the statement that Klaw &
Erlanger have decided to abandon their
plans for building houses in Portland,
Spokane. Seattle. Tacoma and Vancou
ver, B. C., and have entered into a 10
year agreement to play their attrac
tions In the rneaters of the Independ
ents. Klaw & Erlanger admit that
their attractions will be seen in the
houses dominated by the Cort faction,
but say it will be for this season only.
They say that all their houses will be
built in the cities named wltfnln the
coming year.
In Cort circles It Is Intimated that
Klaw & Erlanger are merely putting
up a "bluff" to cloud over the fact
that they were forced into line by the
independents and that they really have
no intention of going ahead with the
building of fneir own theaters. Even
if they do, Calvin Helllg says, the Inde
pendents will be ahead financially and
in the estimation of the public by rea
son of having opened their houses to
the Klrtw & Erlanger productions,
many of which, he admits,, are en
titled to A No. 1 rating.
Open Poor Welcome to K. & E.
Klaw & Erlfinger Intimate ttiat they
can see no .reason why they should
not book their attractions in tho open
door houses of the Northwest for this
season when given an opportunity to
do so. They point to the fact fnat it
breaks Jumps, as by tjhe agreement'
they are given entry to Spokane, Port
land. Seattle, Tacoma and Vancouver.
They now have no houses of their own
west of the Twin Cities, except in San
Francisco. Oakland, Los Angeles and
Salt Lake City.
The great trouble between the fac
tions seems to be that eacVi Is unwill
ing to admit that it approached the
other and made the first overtures to
wards a truce.
Confirmation of the at least tem
porary truce between the warring the
atrical combinations was supplied yes
terday, when It was announced that
five of the leading Klaw & Erlanger
productions 'nad been booked for the
Helllg. They include "The Arcadians,"
"Madame Sherry." "The Three Twins,"
"The Spendthrifts" and "The Lily."

SHE QUiT
Bat It Woe a Hard Poll.
It Is hard to believe that coffee will
put a person in such a condition as it
did an Ohio woman. She tells her own
story.
"I did not believe coffee caused my
trouble, and frequently said I liked it
so well I would not. and could not,
quit drinking it, but I was a miserable
sufferer from heart trouble and nerv
ous prostration for four years.
"I was scarcely able to be around,
had no energy and did not care for
anything. Was emaciated and bad a
constant pain around my heart until I
thought I could not endure it.
'Frequently I had nervous chills and
the least excitement would drive sleep
away, and any little noise would upset
mo terribly.- I was gradually getting
worse until finally one time It came
over me and I asked myself what's the
use of belng sick all the time and buy
ing medicine so that I could indulge
mvself in coffee?
"So I thought I would ee if I could
quit drinking coffee and- got some
Postttm to help me quit. I made it
strictly according to directions and I
want to tell you. that change was the
greatest step in my life. It was easy
to quit coffee because I had the Postum
which I now like better than the old
coffee.
"One by one the old troubles left,
until now I am In splendid health,
nerves steady, heart all right and the
pain all gone. Never have any more
nervous chills, don't take amy medicine,
can do all my housework and have done
a great deal beside."

The Standard
For 63 Years
WHEN the time comes
around for you to put a
new stove or range into
your home don't go at it blindly.
Be guided by the wisdom,
choice, experience and approval
of the largest portion of offr
American homes for the last
sixty-three years. During this
entire period
CharterOak
Stoves and Ranges
have given tho best service by far that
was ever gotten out of any cooking or
heating apparatus and there are thousands
of housewives that will back this state
ment up.
When you purchase a Charter Oak
you get the best that can possibly be
built, and that will stand up and do the
work that you require. You get a stove
or range that will do your cooking your
baking your toasting your roasting as
you want it done; one that you will be
proud of. You get a stove or range that is
built scientifically by experts men who
have made stove and range construction
a life study.
If you burn coal you get a stove or range
that has a five year guarantee behind its
Fire Back. If you burn wood you get a
twenty year guarantee behind the Fire
Back. No other stove or range on earth
would give you such a working life and
guarantee it. The Charter Oak does.
Charter Oak Ranees have the most wonderfully
and practically constructed ovena ever made. Your
bread is always browned and baked evenly and
thoroughly. Just place it in any part ol the oven.
No shoving; It all over to try and find the heat. A
soggy and under done pie crust never came out
of a Charter Oak Oven. It actually cannot burn,
char or scorch your cake or biscuits.
Their fuel consumption is lower than most
other ranees. Made of the highest grade steel and
iron carrying ttie heaviest linings. A Charter
Oak will outwork and outlast any other.
If It is inconvenient for you to go to the dealer
write us for our free books. You can't afford to
buy a stove or range until you have found out all
bout the Charter Oak.
