THE SUNDAY OSEGONIAX, PORTLAND, UCTOBER 22, 1905.
THE presence of the mammoth "Ben
Hur" production is arousing more
than ordinary interest in the the
aters, for it is a fact that it has the dis
tinction of being more far-reaching In Its
effect than any play that was ever staged.
The book from which It was dramatized
has been read by all classes and aces of
people, and naturally the enacting of the
same theme with- beautiful scenic settings
proves a magnet to the public at large.
The audiences at the Marquam the past
week have been of an entirely different
character from those ordinarily seen at the i
playhouses, for the regular theater-goers
have been augmented by large crowds of
out-of-town visitors, who arc attracted by
the religious atmosphere of the produc
tion. Church members and even min
isters of the gospel have been attending,
and the large number of students from
various schools of the' city has been most
noticeable. There is no doubt that the
educational value of "Ben-Hur" Is consid
erable, and parents and teachers have not
been slow in taking advantage of It. The
patronage has been so great that the
engagement has been extended for the
entire week.
"White Whittlesey, supported by the Be
lasco Stock Company, gave a very ex
cellent performance of Paul Potter's play,
"Sheridan; or, the Maid of Bath," at tho
Belasco during the week which ends to
night. It is a very artistic production
and deserves all the patronage it has re
ceived. Commencing tomorrow night the
Belasco bill will be "Prince Otto," with
Whittlesey In' the stellar role.
At the Baker last week we wore enter
tained by the Star Show Girls, and at the
Empire by "Honest Hearts." At the for
mer, commencing this afternoon, will be
"The Jolly Grass Widows," and at the
latter "Why Women Sin."
"BEN HUR" EXTENDED.
Three More Performances Are to Be
Given at Marquam This Week.
That splendid theatrical' spectacle, "Ben
Hur," which has been a marked success In
America, England and Australia, and
which was seen bore two seasons ago at
the Marquam Grand, will be the attrac
tion all this week (excepting Saturday
night), with matinees Wednesday and Sat
urday. An extended engagement of three
performances will be given next Thursday
and Friday nights, with a matinee Sat
urday, the seats for which will go on sale
tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
'Ben Hur" has been praised by clergy
men of all denominations and all relig
ions. It appeals equally alike to the Pro
testant, the Jew and the Catholic, and
also to the regular theater-goer. The pro
duction comes back here at this time oven
greater and more massive than when It
was last seen here. Numerous improve
ments have been made in the mechanical
effects of the play, and the acting com
pany is said to be better than the one seen
in the original production In New York
Blx years ago. The company numbers 50
more people than It did when It was last
seen here, and It Is probably the last op
portunity the theater-goers of the North
west will have to see this world-renowned
spectacle. The expenses of "Ben Hur"
are so great that the management will
not dare risk taking the play where the
demand for it Is not large. A business
that would seem great to the ordinary at
traction would not even pay the traveling
expenses of this organization. Of the play
itself, for the benefit of those who have
ot seen the performance, It :an be said
that the pictorial surroundings of "Ben
Hur" aro of singular beauty. Before the
curtain Tlses In the prelude the theater Is
placed in absolute darkness. Music of a
devotional nature, outlining the motive of
the play, to which at times an Invisible
chorus Is added, is given beforo the open
ing. The prelude shows the three wis.e
men of the East watching the star of
Bethlehem. It Is an Impressive picture, as
the star glows and throbs with living
light. Nearer and nearer It approaches
until It bathes the whole auditorium with
the splendor of its refulgence. The scene
of the first act is laid on the roof of the
Palace of Hur In Jerusalem, showing a
vast expanse of the housetops of the city
of David, and a superb view of the coun
try beyond.
The second act gives the first stage rep
resentation of the Interior of a Roman
war galley, with the slave oarsmen at
work tugging away at the heavy oars to
the sharp beat of a cruel overseer. Then
there Is a battle and the sinking of the
ship, the wreck and -rescue on the open
sea. The third act shows the Grove of
Daphne and the Fountain of Castllla, two
views of the enchanted land. Here are
dancers nnd singers glvep up to pleasure
lor pleasure's sake. We are transported
to tho land of the lotus-eaterthe waters
e Egypt, with a Cleopatra exercising the
allurements and witcheries which tempted
but did not encompass the ruin of Ben
Hur. Then comes the famous race.
Blooded horses run at top speed in full
view of the audience. Thousands of peo
ple appear to look down upon the contest
ing charioteers. We see them turn and
witness the skill of Ben Hur as he cleverly
smashes the wheel of Messala's chariot
and wins the race. The last act glyes
the picture of the mystical ale of Hln
Jiom, the refuge of the lepers, and the
scene on the Mount of Olives, with the
multitude drawn there by the presence of
the Nazarene. The sacred and solemn as
sociations of this historic spot are drawn
with exceeding delicacy, but with a sure
ness'of touch that gives one the Iraprcs-
I
sion of having been an actual beholder of
an Incident In the world's history suoh as
was ndver seen before and never will be
witnessed again.

historical-dramas, supported by the Be
lasco stock company. Mr. Whittlesey
has a large following In Portland, as ho
has everywhere In the West, and his
present ' engagement at the head of tho
Belasco forces has done much to in
crease the hold he has on the popular
favor. He Is Ideal In roles requiring the
intangible dash, charm and refinement
of romantic qualities which appeal to
those -who like romance. Ho "has few
equals and no superiors In his line of
work, and the Portland public Is Indeed
fortunate In having an opportunity to see

Rose Eytlnge's Pupils Succeed
Where Others Fall to Make Good.
It Is a recognized fact In the theatrical
world that pupils Instructed by Rose
Eytinge In dramatic art display a style
and finish tit the very outset of their
stage career, which is entirely lacking In
graduates of dramatic schools or so
called schools of expression. The reason
for this is obvious. There Is no man or
woman in the United States today en
deavoring to train pupils for the stage
Who hag had a utbe of Rose Eytlnge's
experience before the footlights, or who
has studied as she has done for years
the best methods of Instruction calculat
ed to advance her pupils on the road to
the position attained by herself at the
top of their chosen profession. All this
experience and study Is placed at th
disposal of students who seek her assist
ance, and It tells. Her graduates have
appeared in Shakespearean productions
as well as In modern plays when advised
by her to do so. and so advised have
never failed to do good work. Instruc
tion can be arranged for at 71S Ea3t
Burnslde street. Phone East 2250.

A Dog: Faithful Unto Death.
London Mall.
A striking instance of a dog's devctlon
was told at the Inquest recently on a man
named John Bacon, who was run over by
a train and killed on the District Railway
Company's Hounslow branch line near
South Ealing Station. "When the body was
discovered by a porter a-collle do? was ly
ing- by its side. The animal growled fierce-1
ly at the porter's approaoh. and when tho
body was being removed the dog jumped
upon the ambulance and was taken o the
mortuary, where It remained by Its dead
master's side for two days. It was then
coaxed away by a relative of the dead
man.
