THAT Jovial, laughing farce, "Seven
Days." presented last evening at the
HeHlg, more than sustained its reputa
tion as being one of the best comedies
sent out from New Torlc In many sea
sons. "Being a combination of curious cir
cumstances, related by Mary Roberts
Klnehart and Avery Hopwood." auys the
programme, but It might more aptly be
called a cataclysm of concentrated cach
Innattons. with folk holding their sides
with laugh-pains before the end of the
first day of the seven. Ths swing is
substantially the same as In the book.
All the ludicrous situations snd the es
sence of merriment have been extracted
from It. and tied together with an ex
cellent company and handsome settings,
snd It Is a prolonged scream.
A few members of New York's smart
set meet for a dinner and are quaran
tined along with a policeman, a burglar,
and the host's ex-wife. Like unto
bhermsn's characterisation of war are
the vicissitudes the trapped burglar un
dergoes, what with changing constantly
his hiding plsces. starving In the chim
ney, roasting behind the stove snd elsi
lug up and down the wood elevator.
While perhaps the Idea of a quaran
tine that bands the characters of a play
for oomedy and dramatic purposes. Is
neither new nor original, the subject Is.
given such a strikingly new and unique
treatment lu "Seven Daya" that the re
sult Is vastly satisfying and tremend
ously funny.
Given "Bubbles" Brown, celebrating
his divorce anniversary; his former wife,
who "haa Just dropped In to see the
cook." ostensibly, but in truth to see her
desr "Bubbles" sgaln; given, too. sn sg
gre4ve aunt. Sellna. who Is "Bubbles' "
pocketbook, whose attitude toward Ufa
Is summed up in her words. "Divorced
people, whisky and low-neck gowns are
whst hell Is made of," add to these a
policeman who haa come to call on the
cook, a burglar who has called, the first
guest In fsct to help himself to whatso
ever may be lying around; add. too. a
nice, accommodating damsel. Kit. who
consents to pose ss "Bubbles' " wife for
a brief two hours during the visit of the
aunt, and put In three other characters,
an awfully nice man who la fond of Kit.
but can't tell her so. for he thinks she's
Mrs. "Bubbles." and two kindly souls.
Mr. and Mrs.. Dallas Brown given all
these (oik. all the elementa of fun de
veloped by the unusual situations, there
Is a fat laugh In every word and Interest
from curtain to curtain.
There Is little to choose In the cast.
Scsrcely If ever has a better balanced
one appeared at a local theater.
To Aubrey Boattle la given the respon
sibilities) of the role of the sdlpose Bub
bles. In which hs Is genuinely funny:
Edward Lor.gman Is easily one of the
funniest comedians, working along In a
quiet, smooth way that Is In Itself the
seme of dellghtfulness. as Dallas Brown.
Jessie McAllister Is a fascinating Kit
McNalr. who substitutes for "Bubbles' "
wife, and Madeline Wlnthrop makes a
mighty fetching . ex-wlfe. Margaret
Bourne gathers In a lot of garlands for
her psychla movements and spiritual
chatter as Anne Brown.
Florence Robinson Is the aggressive
Aunt Sellna. William Wadsworth Is a
quiet and long-drawn-out mirth-producer
as the prowling burglar; P. 8. Bar
rett la the aqueaky-ahod policeman and
Ben F. Wilson Is Tom. the good-looking
man whom Kit prefers.
As an antidote for blue devils. "Seven
Days." at the Helllg all week. Is an ex
cellent prescription.

The two principal voesl soloists,
Mrs. Elfreda Heller Welnsteln. dra
matic soprano, and B. Edward Reea.
lyrle tenor, sang with an ability that
won hearty recalls. Mrs, Welnsteln Is
one of the very best among Portland's
light dramatic sopranos, and her sing
ing of the "Aids" aria. "Rltorna Vlncl
tor." and the "Rattle Cry" from Wag
ner' "Valkyrie'' showed tbe remark
able musical progress1 she has made in
the paat few months.
There Is a new repression In her
singing until the proper moment for
vocal dynamlo effect arrives, and a
beautiful finish in her vocalisation that
Is a real pleasure to hear. Her voice,
too. Is gslnlng In volume without
losing any of Its tonal beauty, and she
deserves all the more credit for the
artistry she displayed, when It Is re
membered that the solos she sang hsve
recently been Interpreted In this city
by eminent visiting artists.
MYs. Welnsteln also sang from mem
ory, a vocal feat that can be com
mended. Mr. Reea, wbo Is a "stranger In our
midst." haa an unusually high-set tenor
voice ef natural beauty and clarity,
and hla singing wss kindly received.
His roles Is a rare one and he deserves
credit for the difficult music he sang
and the good appearance he made.

Mrs. Welnsteln. Miss Brown. Mr.
Rees and H. Q. Whlpp sang two quar

HALL CAINE never wrote a stronger
play than "The Christian," which
opened at the Baker Theater yesterday
afternoon. While the atory In both book
and dramatised form has been received
by some with Intense bitterness and
fierce denunciation and others have ac
corded to it the most glowing eulogies,
everyone is resdy to admit that neither
book nor play Is ordinary.
Whstever Its merits or demerits. "The
Christian" induces serious thought on
the problems which Its author Intended
to aet before us. While It attracts
greatly through Its deep religious atmos
phere and powerful dramatic construc
tion. It Is on the face a love-story In
which tragical complications Is Intro
duced by the passion Inspired for one
another by two natures radically op
posed. One might go so far as to con
jecture that the author'u doctrine Is that
of hereditary Innuence, inasmuch as al
most every scene and Incident in the
story turns on the apparently hopeless
relation existing between two natures so
fundamentally dissimilar, yet powerfully
drawn to each other by a mutual love;
Glory Quayle. the granddaughter of a
French actress and a daughter of a
fanatical devotee: John Storm, the son
of a saintly mother and of a father de
voted to worldly schemes.
In the hands of the Baker players the
tempestuous lives of these two fiction
favorites again ecome delightful reali
ties. Thurston Hall, departing widely
from his former dramatic Impersona
tions, opened a new field of endeavor
for himself, and scored a triumph with
his fervid and Intensely sincere work as
John Storm, an unusual and difficult
type. Mr. Hall delivers his big speeches
with ringing and Impassioned eloquence,
and the applause often drowns his utter
ances at times. An excellent piece of
characterisation la afforded In the smoothly-polished
villain, clean-cut as a cameo.
In Its delineation by J. Frank Burke aa
Lord Robert Ure. Frank Denlthorne In
the role of Horatio Drakik plays sympa
thetically and straight Into the good
graces of his audience. He is one of
the most finished and thoroughly com
mendable artists In the entire company,
and his recent addition to the local or
ganisation Is a matter of rejoicing
amongst patrons. Ida Adair makea a
distinct appeal with her Glory, which
she plays with an evanescent charm and
depth of sincerity that Is electrical In
Its effect. To Brenda Fowler Is given
one of the best of character roles, that
of poor, pretty Polly Love. Miss Fowler
gets everything out of the part that Is
in It. and does It particularly" well, too,
looking like a plump edition of Una
Cavalllerl the while.
Clever character portraits are etched
In Lillian Andrews' Mrs. Callendar with
a Scotch bur-r so natural that Harry
Lauder would sit up and take notice.
John Burton as the Archdeacon Wealthy,
which gives lis a new and serious view
of the comedian: Marshall Farnum as
Father Lomplugh: Ronald Bradbury,
most austere ss John's father: Henry
Stockbrldge. as a faro king In mus
tsches. and an exceptionally meritorious
bit of acting by Walter Gilbert as
Brother Paul. Polly's brother. Scenery,
in every sense artistic and fitting, graces
the presentation.

we VX DILL, formerly of Kolb A Dill,
I two of the best-known funmakers
on the Pacific Coast; greeted his old
friends In Portland at the Bungalow
yesterday afternoon In "Dream City," a
laughable musical comedy. Yet there
was something missing. It was Kolb.
These two comedians were together so
long that one Is associated with the
other and it is difficult for the theater
going publld to realize that differences
have separated tbe pair. Dill was
greeted with loud applause and the au
dience Instinctively looked for Kolb.
There Is a tone of pathos when Dill
falls to sleep and dreams that he has
sold his farm to an enterprising real es
tate shark for the purpose of building
a city, and after his dream Is depicted
In scenes of revelry with himself as
Msyor of Dream City, he awakens and
rejoices that It was only a dream after
all and be la still a farmer. The sup
port given Dill Is not what It should
be. or his superiority over his com
pany makes the difference glaring.
Roger Gray, as Seth Hobbs. and Dill.
In the role of August Dinglebender, a
Long Island truck farmer, are respon
sible for all the laughs, although the
angular Laura Oakley, aa Dingleben
der s wife, makes a hit with her per
sonal appearance and keeps the audi
ence guessing as to her gender on ac
count of her masculine voice and de
meanor. Percy V. Bronson Is a typical
real estate boomer and handles his part
to good advantage. The remainder of
the cast are clearly fillers.
The chorus "puts up a good front."
but Is not trained to that fine finish
that gives grace and ease and. uniform
ity of action that delights an audience
appreciative of chorus technique. But
