Kolb and Dill, after a separation of three years, will be seen together as co-partners this afternoon In San Fran cisco. San Francisco Is now rejoicing over the reunion of these two come dians, as New Tork did some weeks ago over the Weber and Fields jubi lee. These two pairs of players have had many separations In their careers, but Rice and Cady, who will soon cele brate their silver jubilee aa joint stars, have never worked separately since they formed their- partnership many years ago. Rice and Cady have been brought direct from New York by Keating and Flood and will open with an entire new company at the Lyric Theater next Monday, March 23. They are bringing with tliera Harry Burgess, who will play leads, and Miss Eugenie Le Blanc a soubrette, well-known In Eastern musical comedy circles. Rice and Cady will preaent the latest laughing pro ductions of the East, and with the rep utation that these two fun makers car ry with them, Portland theatergoers will have the opportunity of seeing one of the biggest treats In the musi cal line that has been presented in this city In years. Rica and Cady arrive Friday night and are now busy as bees preparing their opening production. POLICE LOAF AT CHURCH Demonstration of Socialists Falls to Materialize. In response to the request of Rev. J. F. Ghormley, pastor of the Central Christian Church, who asked Police Chief Slover for a detail of JO police men at his church on the East Side, a squad of big pollcement appeared Fri day night at-the church where Frank M. Dixon, of Chlcaeio, was to deliver his lecture against socialism. In view of the near riot that had occurred at the meeting held by General Baden Powell and the probability that Mr. Dlxon'a remarks were to be directly op posed to Socialistic teachings. Mr. Ghormley called for the police protec- tion to forestall any attempt that might be made to break up the meeting at the Central Christian Church. The premonitions of Socialistic dem onstration failed, however, to mate rialize. The squad of policemen re mained at the entrance of the church until the audience was well under way and then were quietly relieved of duty and returned to the station without any representative of either the Social ists or the L W. "W. organization hav ing made an appearance. Mr. Dixon declared that the danger of the present day Is not In those who talk socialism on the street corners, but In those who unconsciously become Imbued with Its principles, which he denounced without qualification as rer rogressive and evil. He asserted that the tendency of capital toward forma tion of great monopolies to the detri ment of healthy competition is one of the potent socialistic tendencies of the age, In spite of the fact mat capital istic monopoly Is denounced by those who nrofess to be socialists. Noting the growth of tha Ideal of centralisation and monopoly in every phase of modern society, ha declared that the ultimate step would be consol Idatlon In one final monopoly of all by the Government, and that this will mean "Socialism; absolute, abject slav ery."
