DAVID BELASCO FILLS CAST
FOR "THE LILY'' HAPPILY
Nance O'Neil and Charles Cartwright Are Admirably Adapted to Principal
Parts, and Resemble Each Other in Remarkable Degree.
DAVID BELASCO .ha. been called
"lucky," but only by those envious
- rivala whose ratio of successes is
tar below that of the man who has
given to the world aa masterful a play
"The Lily." to be seen here -next
week.
David " Belaaco has to hi. credit a
great many genuine histrionic successes.
In all the years he has been before
the public he has had only two that
might be termed pronounced failures,
while his successes can be reckoned
by the score. Including such colossal
triumphs as "Zaxa," "DuBarry." "The
Music Master." "The Girl of the Gold
en West." "Sweet Kitty Bellalrs." he
Rose of the Rancho." "Is Matrimony a
FallureT" "Nobody's Widow." "The Con
cert" and "The Return of Peter
Grimm."
Public Expecls Much.
These are some epoch-making con
tributions to dramatic art placing be
yond argument his claim as the great
est author-manager the American stage
Das ever known, and one of the greatest
In dramatic history.
It is because of this remarkable rec
ord and because of the perfect cast and
scenic production his plays always re
ceive that the public has learned to
expect so much more of him than of
any other author and that the first
night of any new Belasco play is
awaited with an interest that attaches
to no other "opening."
A Belasco premiere Is always an
event, social as well as artistic, and be
cause of the scrupulously careful re
hearsal, and the utter completeness of
the smallest detail of scenery, prop
erties and lights, the opening perform
ance of a new Belasco play runs as
smoothly as If It had been played for
an entire season.
No. Belasco Is not lucky. He de
serves every bit of success that has
come his way, for he work, for It and
works hard. Day and night, early and
late, his mind is on the greatest mis
sion of serving the public as honorably
as if he were entering upon a definite
moral and business obligation. David
Belasco'. art is hi. life. There is no
rest until the thing Is done and done
aa near the standard of perfection as
thought and work can make It. David
Belasco hss won success and with it
the regard and confidence th great
music dealing with the escapade of
those two famous Dutchmen who attend
the big annual affair, without the pres
ence or knowledge of -their wives, and
who thereby get Into a lot of serious
trouble the next day. .
While there are serious moments for
the principal culprits. West and Vack,
after a long series of mixups and en
tanglements everything comes out
right. The coming week many new and
catchy musical, numbers will be heard,
including "My Hero," by Jeane Fletcher,
the beautiful Scotch prima donna; a
new song written by a Portland boy In
honor of the Rose Festival, sung by
Jack Wise, and others by Myrtle How
ard, Ernest Van Pelt and Charles Hunt.
Monday night will be amateur night,
which always affords unlimited fun fa
the audience, and Friday will be the
popular chorus girls' contest. Mati
nees every day at 2:25 P. M. and two
evening performances 7:45 and :15.

Belasco Experiments in "The Lily."
"In the selection of the cast for "The
Lily." " said Mr. Belasco recently, "I
decided to ' experiment "and I am con
vinced that we have worked a much
needed reform in stage management and
theatrical production generally. I found
that after I had completed the adap
tation of 'The Lily1 from the French
of Pierre Wolff and Gaston Leroux
there were four people in particular
who would have to be selected with
the minutest regard for racial and
temperamental similitude.
"I refer to the de Maigny family,
consisting of father, two daughters and
a son. The de Maignys are the type
of people who always resemble each
