BeinnlnK next Wednesday night, April
22. and continuing the following three
nights, with a special matinee Saturday,
the attraction at tlm Hellig Theater.
Fourteenth and Washington street: , will
he tho tuneful musical-comedy success.
"The District T,eador." This merry offer
ing bad its first product ion at Wa Hack's
Theater. New York, and Is a satisfying
evening's entertainment of the light var
iety, and wfll greatly outclass many of
the productions that have been more
copf ousl y hera Med a nd more hi gh 1 y ac-
chimed.
The story of "The District Leader s
an Intermixture of melodrama, comedy
and comic opera, with a vfvacious bunch
of show girls, which combination pro
duces a happy effect. The melodramatic
strain without the chorus girls and the
car tickling musical numbers might
prove depressing. ' but the occasional in
troduction of these lessens tlio serious
ness of the plot, when the opportunity
for a heroic situation presents itself and
the tragic ensemble gives way to the
Jovous show girls and the catchy music.
Pan Lawton and Tim Holloran are rivals
for political honors. The younger man
is in love with his opponent's daughter.
Tho father of the girl resorts to dis
honest tactics in endeavoring to secure
his election, the plan being to inveigle his
drtUirhter's lover to an opium joint and
then cause a ra;d uinm the place, having
the story printed in the newoapers on
the morning of election cay and thereby
cause his opponent's downfall, all - of
which gives ample opportunity for melo
dramatic effects, many change of scene
and a variety of costumes. "The District
Leader" mav well be called a "novelty,"
for tt introduces many things that are
really new. Among the song hits of the
piecf are "When You Go Out to Dine."
"Way Down in .Jersey." "ro?" "A Heart
to "Let." "Sr.g Sing Sammy Sera."
"What s the I'se of Dreaming Z" "Won't

LAST WKKK AT 8TAH TI1KATKK
French Stock Company Will Present
"How Baxter Butted In.
This is the last wuck of the French
Stock Company at the Star Theater and
for the closing" attraction Manager
Richard B- French has selected a comedy
drama, "How Baxter Butted In." A
week from today the company will open
its engagement in Tacoma. so that the
last performance of the popxilar organisa
tion in Portland will be next Saturday
night. Mr. French will hold a reception
on the stage after the final performance.
"How Baxter Butted In' will be a
lively bill for the closing week of the
long engagement, which, has run almost
into a year at the Star Theater. "How
Baxter Butted In" is by Owen Davi. a
man who understands how to write an
interesting play. This is more of a
comedy with a plot than anything else.
It has never been seen in Portland but
once before and the play, given at Star
price's, will be one of the theatrical
bargains of the season. The scenes of
"How Baxter Butted In" are laid in a
small Eastern village. The village hotel,
the village church and other small town
centers of interest are used as the back
ground for a story which is at all times
amusing. There are opportunities for
tears and smiles but principally smiles.
Baxter is a commercial traveler, a
drummer. He visits the small town in
the interest of the hoiwe he represents
endeavoring to disposw of his samples.
He arrives at the hotel and the first
act is devoted to the fun which results
from assemoiing the various country
hotel characters, ranging from the pro
prietor to the waitresses and the bell
boy. The heroine is a good yotiDg girl
who is under suspicion by her friends
and relatives and they hold, a meeting
in tiie churih where the girl m being

Tho attraction at the Ileilig Theater.
Fourteenth and Washington streets, on
Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday nights.
April 27, 2S. 29. with a special matinee
Wednesday afternoon, will be America's
foremost negro Impersonators, Mclntyre
and Heath, in their famous musical play,
"The Ham Tree." The following taken
from the San Francisco Bulletin of April
7 tells how this happy offering was re
ceived in that city:
"That loquacious vegetable. 'The Ham
Tree. is simply a scream all the way
through. The more you see of Mclntyre
and Heath the funnier they seem, and
in their 18 months absence from San
Francisco they have become uproarious
ly exhilarating. You cannot listen to
them two nights running and keep your
sanity.
"Everything about the show, as it ap
pears at the Van Ness. Is goodsilly, of
course, but the kind of silliness that a
normal person with a healthy diaphragm
would travel miles to find. There is a
large and well-drilled chorus of those
nice, long-legged. loose-join ted. close
musckd girls who know how to make
dancing a fascination, enough inconse
Huential but lilting music to give the two
dark stars an occasional rnsr. several
Broadway denizens of a mildly humorous
capacity scattered about, a couple of
buxom, carefully curr'ed ladies, and a
fellow who sings tip-top tenor through
his nos with the gusto of a boulevard
report artist,
Naturally, however. Mclntyre and
Heath are the Hamlets of the produc
tion. All the rest are merely trimmings
for the excruciating sketch they have
been Indulging years without end. If
the trimmings had been poor the au
dience would have resented it; as they
happened to be bright and decorative,
they were just noted, enjoyed and for
gotten. But if you had a friend at the shov
he will probably stop you on the stre
a fortnight hence, begin an imaginary
scooping 00 the sidewalk with' an in
visible spade and say "Alexander, come
heati and he'p me shovel dese dough
nuts!" Then both you and he will go
into gales and spasms of laughter until
the alarmed policeman wants to call the
van from the Detention Hosiptal. It's a
secret. You can't understand it or grasp
Us hilarious algniftoa nee tint ft you hear
Mclntyri and Heath.

William A. Brady, his manager, im
ported the play after sewing it in tlm
final weeks of an a!-sjHsnn run In IVn-

on September 3fi, lrfi. U ran in that
huge playhouse, now no more, until mid

"SHFRLOCK HOLMES"' COMIXO
Baker Stock Company to Present the
Greatest of Detective Plays.
Starting next Sunday matinee, April
26, the Baker Stock Company will pre
sent William Gillette's famous detective
play, "Sherlock Holmes," and so great
was the success of "Raffles" recently,
as given by this clever organization,
that everyone is expecting something
far out of the ordinary in this other
fascinating modern drama. There are
several plays of indifferent nature in
which the great Conan Doyle criminal
hunter is the central figure, but this is
the only one that is in the class of
stage productions such as the Baker
Company is noted for presenting to its
patrons. That Mr. Allison will make
an Ideal Holmes, no one who saw him
in "Raffles' will for a moment doubt,
and his support in the members of the
Baker Company will be much better
than the average star carries on the
road.
Musical Comedy seasoii.
The Armstrong Musical Comedy Com
pany will open an indefinite season at the
Star theater, following the French Stock
Company. It has been several years since
musical comedy has been presented in
Portland and at popular prices. This or
ganization has just closed a long and
successful engagement in British ' Co
lumbia. Each week there will be a new
musical bill presented, with new and
catchy songs. t Good comedians and an
active chorus are promised.
