At the Empire there has been an exellent program running dur ing the week and it I believed that few have spoken lightly of It.

Beginning next Monday evening, July (. The Empire Theatre will add another Ftrong program to the gaiety of na tions Heading the long list of perform ers Is the mystt'rlously-named duo, Del phlno and Delfnoru, a team of musical grotesques comlntt direct from Europe, of whom great things arc predicted. The remainder of t fie program prom ises nearly three hours of merriment. Among the acts which ran be depended upon to interest every person in the audience and to nmkp even the hardened ushers laugh, are the specialties of De vaney and Allen. black -face knock about comedians; of Moxlas and Mexias, who are billed as "The Clown and Hii Dog," and of Womlford and Malboro, the skit artists Sometimes a vaudeville performer abandons the well-worn ruts of the profession and hies him forth In search of something new. To this, class the Waltona certainly belong. At The Em pire next week the Walton will pre eent a line of Chinese character sketches which are extremely laughable and which huve also a certain realistic value. Those playgoers who appreciate nov elty and its rarity will make a point of keeping up to date by seeing the Wal ton. Several of the star features of the present week's bill have been retained for the coming seven days. Budd Broth er, who are the head-liners this week, will appear In an act which will show them In their role of laugh-creating tumblers. The, bas voice of Arthur llahrt, the Australian singer, will be heard In a number of new selections. The resonant qualities, extensive regis ter and full tone of Mr. Hahn's voice have made this singer from the Antip odes a great favorite In local musical circles.

For week together hi work would average 25.000 word a week. Sir Edward Russell's record in the way of work was his article on Matthew Arnold on th day that great man died. Sir Edward had exclusive information of the event, which happened on a Sun day. He did not get to work until 7:80 In the evening, and It was necessary for him to catch a train at 9 ovioclc By dint of dictating to his secretary and writing himself, he got through a oiog-rapnicai article or a column and a half and ft two-column leader within ona hour and 10 minutes. 8uch a feat baa never been excelled. , W.oman Always Wants to Confess, but She Is Afraid, It Is - aald that "open confession is good for the soul."

Those who have not yet at tended this fashionable playhouse this week should note this fact, because the bill is perhaps the mont attractive vaudeville program ever presented . In the Northwest. A number of the per formers are of an exceptional clever ness. Such features aa the tumbling Budd Brothers, the great bass songs, of Arthur Hahn, and the marvelous shoot Ing feats of Coleman and Mexls have real merit In them. Then Brooke El- trvm. the sweet-voiced soprano, is a strong attraction. Raymond and Clark, the fun makers, played their present sketch at Weber & Field's in New York.

Shields' bis vaudeville for next week will be put on at the Park tomorrow night and it Is promised that more en joyable work has not been presented this season than that which is held in store for the patrons of the popular place. Mr. Shields announces that he has been successful during the last 10 days in securing the engagement of sev eral meritorious teama from the East and three of these he will add to his was program for next week beginning to There have been ma attempts to produce good vaudeville from material that barnstorm about the. country, but this class of alleged artists falls to make good for any length of time, so it Is necessary to secure legiti mate people from big circuits. On the bill beginning tomorrow will be found the Millards, who will bo the head-liners. Their comedy sketches are classed among the bent In tha country. and (Hiring the progress of their work Mr. Millard will give his famous inter pretation of the "Silly Kid." Miss Mil lard and Baby Millard will introduce pleasing specialties to the act. One of the best features on the bill will be Marie Lesslng. who is classed equal to Hose Mellvllle in anything tho Intter ever did, and to prove this fact Miss Leasing will produce her character sketch, entitled "Tho Arkansas Ruby," which has made her rnmoua all over the East. Then comes Charles Gardner, .' the monologue artist and musical comedian. Mr. Gardner has the reputation of be ing the equal of any in his line of business, and hearing him will prove the assertion. Jessie Orr. the dancing comedienne, will add to the value of the show and It can be said that this lady has the record for dancing 20 steps of Irish Jig without a skip, which is almost equal to the championship record male dancers. Hugh Emmett, the ventriloquist will give another week of his superior work in comedy, and It la not too much to say that he has demonstrated during the last week that he Is about the best seen In Portland in this class of work. "The Furniture Man," a most pleas ing comedy act. wlll.be put on by the Athon-Wllson-Clark 'Company. This happy trio amused greatly this week at the Park, and it is said that their new sketch is superior to their work during the last six days. The Paloma duo will sing opera crea tions of the latest Writing and will- re spond to encores with catching and popu lar songs.

The culprit naturally reflects: "It is better to lie a little than to be unhappy much." Given the choice aa to whether we would have confession or concealment from those we love, we Invariably choose confession, and when It comes we are ungenerous. A woman alwaya wants to confess, but. she Is afraidto. Sheknows half me lime me man win minK sne is not telling the whole truth. In this matter the man is prone to Judge the woman by what he would do himself. When he la the confessor, he suits hjs story to the woman's capacity for forgiveness. When once the floodgatea of a woman's re pentance are opened, there Is no pruning or paring, says Winnirred Oliver In the Chicago Journal. The wisdom of confession la such an important factor in the Uvea of married or even "engaged" life that there can not be any lukewarm opinion as to the course to pursue. It Is right or it Is wrong-. There is no medium. Lives are wrecked dally by either the omission or commission of confession. It depends largely on the nature of the one to whom the confes sion Is made. Some prefer to know all; to others. Ignorance la bliss. By a strange coincidence, . two plays have appeared almost slmultaneoualy. I refer to "The Girl with the Green Eyes," by Clyde Fltoh, and "The Unfor keen," by Robert Marshall. . It would seem as though the clever playwrights had mentally shaken handa across the broad Atlantic The -American viewpoint deals with concealment on the part of the hue band. The Engllah, with concealment on the part of the wife. In both cases eon fesslonj had been the wiser course to pursue, in ine nappiesi marnea uie I have ever seen, the husband, whose life was anything but blameless beforo marriage, told hla wife everything. . Ho ran a great risk, but she waa true metal and came out 6f the fir unscathed. She loved him, and ahe forgave him: and, what waa more . to her credit- ahe never afterwards reierred to 'any of hla confessions. ; :; . ' .. The man or woman, wh la worth lav ing will forgive, but the woman cannot aiwayaforget and therein lies the dan-' ger. She is likely to hearken back to the dangeroua topic until. If ha had tn do it over again, the average man, would J .. , .,,,, in an buujtci himself to constant nagging. For those who do not confess there la the constant dread of detection. They, live on a live volcano which may erupt1 at any moment and then there Is always I the cry: 'If you had only told me!" In "The Unforseen." If Margaret had only confeased to her blind lover aha would have saved herself some very bit-; ter moments. It was more the conceal-, ment than the fancied crJme he con-! demned. She lulled herself into a false security, sustained by the hope that no one save one man knew of her escapade, and he would not turn up. y He did turn up, and he did not betray her, but the unforseen happened and almost wrecked her life. I would ad-1 vise confeasion first, foremost and all-' ways. It may cause heartache and tears, but If deferred It will cauae more aerloua trouble than heartache. Rtna. llke chickens, come home to roost Con-, fees and live with a free conscience, in-; atead of dragging through life with a I sword of Damocles banging over your head. The time for confession is before, not after, marrlka-a. The dim wfin muifnaua . - . " has repented, and the man or woman b y whom auch confeaslons are made. If hes or ahe be worth the loving and wlnnlnnr 1 will forgive.
