DIAMOND DONNER. AT HOME
Portland Girl Unaffected by Stage Success While She Aspires Some Day to Play Leslie Carter Parts
IAMOND DONNER. In her proper
person, reminds me strongly of
Mao MadL&ne, and this is said
without any disposition to disparage
either of th young ladies. I waited for
a train at GcOtrado Springs one time with
tJx picturesque Butte damsel, and found
her a charming person. 1 met Diamond
IVmner Friday at her uncle's home on
the East Side. She was out in the grounds
Jut roaiiy to climb into a dogcart for a
trip over to town when I Interfered long
cnowrk to -ask nor Impertinent questions.
We talked Just eight minutes by the
watch, and In that time she said eo many
ingenuously clever things that the Mac-I-an
comparison came naturally to my
mind.
Tho success which has come so promptly
to thte girl has not spoiled her. Two
years of glaring .stage- lights have robbed
her of no girlish charm. Publicity has
aot thrown her head out of plumb.
We leaned against tne shafts of the
pony cart and she tangled the atolld little
beast's- man in her hands as she told me
pome of, the things she thought and felt
and hoped. The -hands which tangled the
pony"- mane swere incased in rather
shabby black gloves of the undressed va
riety. Her coat was rather Indifferent,
and I couldn't do 'much for her hat.
These habllamonts established little Miss
Donner.!. levol-headed good sense. She
dldn'tome home .after six. years to dazzle
her old-time friends with the glory of
Xame'.s apparel.
In manner she was the same, I fancy, as
when she was merely little Diamond Don
ner, of Portland, eight years ago. She
Impressed me as a very genuine young
person In half transports over a 36 hours'
visit to the home folks after six years
away.
Miss Donncr Is sweet of face, with a
charming, unaffected manner. She is first
of all interesting, and after that bright
and cultivated. She has retained her girl
ish spontaneity. She doesn't pose and she
doosc't prate about art. capitalizing each
letter, as most enthuslasic stage people
do. As a matter of fact, she is artless, as
yet. and therein lies her best charm.
I farmed these Impressions of her as we
leaned against the shafts while she talked
for oi?ht minutes Friday afternoon.
"This pony Is my dear old chum," she
paid prettily without betraying the ani
mal's Identity farther. "I used to ride him
all over the country with my hair flying
into my eyes. He's one of the things I
love best. I'm -going to take him to New
York next year. II Isn't fair that we be
ieparated. "Kos. he's ever so old and he's
forgotten me. He is the only one who
scorns to have done that, and it isn't
his fault."
I thought tbore was going to become
crying, so I asked' little Miss Donrier to
toll me the story of her life. (Slow music
hero.)
"Seems almost foolish for me to be
talking about my career, doesn't it? It's
bean such a littlo one. You know I went
to Wellosley when I finished atthe Port
land Academy. There I took part In the
college theatricals and liked It splen
didly. College theatricals are great fun,
aroa't they? My class was '01, and right
after Tmy graduation I went to New York

THE STAGE.
and got a place in the chorus of 'The
Prince of Pllsen.' Yes, it was a sorry
coming off, so- some of my friends said,
but I liked It arid tried to work hard.
After a while Mr. Savage, who owns
'Pllsen,' you know, sent me to a dancing
school. I guess he didn't have tho
heart to discharge me, and was afraid
my attempts at dancing would spoil
the show. Well. I learned to danco
and gradually got better positions un
til I was engaged for my present part
I like my work. I like the bright,
happy life of the stage, and I'm really
ambitious. Yes, dreadfully ambitious.
I want to staj' in musical -pieces for
four or five years and then 'go Into the
legitimate "
I lookef hard at the girl who was
tangling the mane and almost bash
fully telling her mind. "What kind of
roles for you?" 1 asked, and she ac
tually blushed.
"Emotional. The Leslie Carter kind.
1 1 wan: to play something that will live
longer than some JIngly muslcal-com-
eay tning. xo, I'm not ready yet. I
must have lived longer., I must have
felt and suffered more. My emotion's
ha.ve not been tried enough."
From this I gathered that little MIs3
Diamond Donner has not yet been In
love, and I thought there was much in
store for her 'and sumo tine fellow
somewhere. She has that girlish fancy
that to be "crossed In hopeless love"
is the divine Inflatus. I don't know
but she's right and for the selfish sake
"of the stago I hope so, for we may have
another very great actress in Diamond
D. some "day.
She told me how glad she was to bo
back in Portland again. It had grown
so. aod didn't I love thp ticar old town?
All of which I acquiesced in and left
to catch the right car back to town
while she climbed into the dogcart and
drove off. " 4. A G.
