SAVAGE PRODCCTIOX BIG PLAT
"The Girl of the Goldfn It
Offered Here Soon.
The distinguishing feature of Henry
W. Savage's production of Puoclnl's
rrand opera In English. Ths Qlrl of
It. oolden West." which will bo of
fered at tha Hcl'.ig Theater January 23.
II and ii. Is its colnsssl proportions.
The American stage has never before
Men a production carried out upon such
a tremendous scale.
It was Mr. Savsge's desire from the
start to excel, not merely rival, the
metropolitan representation of Puccini's
last and irreatest work. And he haa
pared nothing In the way of expendi
ture and effort in giving to the cities
not visited by the New York Metropol
itan Company a production equally as
elaborate and as painstaking as the
one presented there last Fall, when the
high record of cash receipt for an
operatic production was established.
Mr. Favage has made a practical dem
onstration that music lorers desire to
hear and understand the text of aa
opera: and In "The CHrl of the Ooldea
West" this la especially essential.
FOIXfES PROGRAMME SECRET
Theater Manager Show Attracts
Widespread Cariosity.
Manager William Pang la. of the
Heine- Theater, where on January 1
the Portland theater managers propose
to bold their First Annual Follies,
spends most of his time these days In
aa ash barrel. Mr. Pangle Is strug
gling with hlmeotf to retain the secrets
with which he Is burdened concerning
that performance. He makes a run
for the barrel every time he sees a
dramatic reporter heaving into sight.
All that Mr. Pansrie ran ho Indued to
say Is that the First Follies will be
about the biggest thing thst ever bit
the theatrical public, and that the pro
gramme committee Is already loaded
with features for the event.
"The managers have pledged them
selves to give Portland people an In
teresting and novel entertainment."
said Mr. Tangle yesterday, 'and you
can bet your last white chip that It will
be worth ten times the one dollar for
which seats can be secured. Of course
there will not be any great demand for
ttrketx until about two days before the
show ! iut on. when the people begin
to see the decorations going up outside
of the theater. Then thre will be a
scramble that will make Seventh street
look like a mob scene In a popular
drama.
-Hut the outside of the theater will
furnish all the Information that can be
obtained at any time concerning the
Follies. What Is going to take place
bark of the front door concerns the
people who have faith enough In the
managers lo Invest one slmoleon In a
ticket.'-
Portland society folk are becoming
Interested In the Follies, and probably
will make the event of as much Im
portance as was the Klrmejs glveo the
past season. It la believed that a num
ber of well-known members of the ex
clusive set will be seen on the stage
Foiies night, and every effort Is being
made to ascertain who they are and
what they are going to do. Thus far
no one can be found who seems to
know anything about the bill of enter
tainment that la to be offered.
The executive committee for the
grand lodge convention of the Elks has
given, the Follies its unanimous Indorse
ment? and last night began a syste
matic campaign of boosting. The com
mittee sent representatives to the ban
quet of advertising men and urged that
nn effrt be ma-kt to dispose of the en
tire --00 sests at the Helllg for the
Follies performance. The Klks will re.
celve the first 11000 taken In at the
ho office, and the remainder of the
funds will be retained as the nucleus
of a fund for the presentation of a
bigger Follies next year.

the world owned by a private Individual. It Is made of 110 Russian

more than 1100 each. The garment was made In Paris, and 1000 sables
were collected on approval by the furrier, the 110 perfectly matched
in coloring being retained.
The valuable fur is made up as a "kimono" cost, a style originated
by Miss Heid's Paris dressmsker. The modiste made a cloth coat, after
which the furrier fashioned the other. It Is lined with white brocaded
liberty satin, ornamented with clusters of wistaria blossoms in the most
delicate blue. On the under edging of the coat Is a wide ruffle of
moussellne de sole, and over this genuine Venetian lace, hand - made.
The "sleeve" (there Is really no sleeve) opening is finished with a rever.

skins. lined 'with ermine, four tails on one end. and a head and three
talis on the other. The ecarf la fastened on the shoulder and near the
neck by means of one hook. ...., ,
