' ; !The Ensign" at the Baker.
''No better Thanksgiving week attrac
tion could have been selected for the
Baker Stock company than William Ha-
. worth'a noted naval play, "The Ensign,"
WhlCn opens wun iouny s niiuuv..
"TheEnsign" is an unusually strong
and Interesting play and is founded upon
an event which happened during the
war of ; the rebellion an, historical In
cident, well remembered by thousands
of people, that Is, the capture of Ma
son and Slldell from the British ship
' Trent by Captain wiikes, wnicn eveni
almost rcreated war between England
' and . the United States -at the time. Of
ficers of the Brmsn snip warrior iuia
a plan to detain the officers of the
American snip tsan jcinio over nigm.
and keep them rrom rouowing tne irent,
which was carrying Mason and Slldell
to EnRland. , The plan waa to create a
fight and have- the Americans arrested
, by the Spanish authorities, for the
scene of these occurrences was at the
port of Havana, then under control of
Hnoln . 'Tlit a wnnlH detsln tha Kan .Tn.
efnto and permit the men wanted to get
. away,. The plot did not succeed, how
, ever, owing to the energetic action of
, Knslgn Ben Baird who killed the Eng
- liah officer (Lieutenant Blythe, who
was a renegade from the American
navy) for Insulting the American flag.
The J ensign was court-martialed, ond
because dungland demanded hla life was
i-onvlcted and sentenced to be hanged
to the yardarm of the San Jacinto.
Through,, the efforts of the daughter

; girl ever seen In a play) the ensign is
finally ; pardoned by presldept Lincoln.
There vwlll be a special matinee

characters are productA of the great
northwest, the scene bflng laid rirst on
a Minnesota farm and later in the city
of Minneapolis. "Tilly" proves to be
a very entertaining stage creation, for
she is bright and witty and with a
fund of good humor hid beneath the Im
perturbability for which her nation Is
noted. The situations of the play are
said to be extremely amusing and the
comedy Is clean cut and scintillating
with good things from beginning to end!
Some original specialties are Introduced
and a fine quartet is carried for the
church scene. An exceptionally clever
company will aid In Interpreting the
comedy and the title role will be played
bv an especially clever comedienne.
Miss Almee Common. Another promi
nent member of the cast Is Master
Jack Rollins, one of the most talented
young actors of tho time. There will
be the usual matinees Wednesday and
Saturday, and a special holiday mati
nee Thursday, Thanksgiving day.
The Star.
"From Rags to Riches" will be tho
attraction all this week at the Star
theatre, commencing with the matlneo
this afternoon. There will be mati
nees Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday.
It Is believed by the management that
this drama will be even more accept
able to the patrons of the Star theatre
than "Tho Dangers of a Working Girl,'
which packed the theatre to the doajrs
at every Derformance the past week.
Charles A. Taylor wrote "From Ragi
to Riches" and in it 'he put some of
his best work. Mr. Taylors plays huve
always been popular In thin city and
every one which the R. E. French Stuck
company has produced at the Star lias
rilled the house to tne floors. rom
Rags to Riches" is even better than
"The Girl EnKlneer" or "The Queen
of the Highway," two of the many Tay
lor plays which found favor at the
Star.
A romance of a poor, young girl Is
reiftted in "From Rags to Riches." The
plot has a familiar ring, but in Its treat
ment and the many lngenlus scenes
and situations which the dramatist has
Introduced make It one of the most
original and Interesting plays of thfi
season. All of the Taylor dr.im.is !ire
filled with action to the brim. Tay
lor always keeps hia characters busy
and there are never Iny drasgy situa
tions nor dull spots In his plots. "From
Rags to Riches" probably shows him at
his best.
As the French Stock company is com
posed only of talented players of many
years exeprlence, the performance will
be excellent. As usual, there will be
special scenery and effects. This Is the
first time that "From Rags to Riches"
has been seen on the Pacific coast, al
though traveling companies In the east
were successful with It for several sea
sons. '
The Grand.
Comedy, music, novelty and acro
batic feats will be found on the pro
gram which Sullivan and Consldine will
unroll on the stage of the Grand thea
tre tomorrow afternoon.. .The hew bill
nromtswa tn he a rrArtfrftriAckv from a
vaudeville standpoint, as It has been
made up In the east by the booking
agents of tne firm and sent to Port
land after receiving the applause of
half the continent. Acts are what the
firm demands, and that is why Sulli
van & Consldine are securing them nil
the time, no master what may be go
ing on in tne eastern vaudeville war.
For Instance, the headline act for th-i
new program is an acrobatic act pre
sented by Nelson-Farnum. Two men and
a woman participate in this event, and
it is said to be a great act. The spe
cial attraction will be "The Colleire
Gymnasium." This will be offered, by
,Ryerr.W8t nA Ida Van Sickle.i.
"The College Gymnasium" Is a com
edy with a plot. There are songs and
muslcal-lnterruptlona and a storv This
act was played in Portland a year aa-o
and made a hit with the amusement
lovers. '

Hendricks' rich baritone voice will be
heard In several new songs and yodels,

play untitled "The Lumber Yack,"
"What the Meaning Means," "Yonnie
and Yennle." and by continual request
the old favorlto yodel song, "Strawber
ries." Marie Cahill in "Marrying Mary."
Ia all tho daintiness and nlceneas of
her "Marrying Mary" clever Marie Ca
hill has scored a signal triumph and
will be seen here at the HelMg Decem
ber 1. They who have called for more
story and more plot In musical plays
have been vindicated In this most Inter
esting effort of Edwin Milton Royle,
and the music by 811vlo Heln and lyrics
by Benjamin Hapgood Burt have proved
a most fitting decoration to the book.
"Marrying Mary" is really a great
muMoal play for It marks the creation
of a new class of entertainment. The
Enftlish musical comedies have already
oeen cnuracierizea as nice, Dut then
thoy have Invariably been too dull for
Americans. But nere we have a com
.edy fro" from horse play and vulgarity,
and yet most lively and entertalnlno-.
"Comedy of the mind and not of the
nanas and reet, some one has said, am
it sterns fit. provldina the phrase I
not so interpreted as to exclude the
graceful dancing or the "long-skirted'
chorus and even of Marie Cahill her
self For the first time since she euf
fered s,n accident to her hip & number of
years ago. Miss Cahill has ventured to
dance and in "Mr. Cupid" she displays
all the grace and art which made her
known in Augustln Daly s "Runaway
Girl" rs the best dancer on the Ameri
can stage.
A secret of Miss Cahill's success lies
in the remarkable and strong cast she
has gathered together. It Is probably
tne niirnest priced ana most rinisnea ag
KrcKatlon of players now appearing in
n musical comedy. Eugene Cowles alone
must command a salary which would
stagger any manager.

study in high lire that teaches a whole
some lesson.
Pantages' New Billing.
Just how tho Pantages management
succeeds In booking new and entertain
ing acts of the very highest order, is
somewhat of a pusssle to those who
visit the popular Fourth street play
house week after week.
If you have not had the chance to see
the Marconas you have missed some
thing worth while.
For. tne next week- there will be nine
acts every one of them good. The sal

om Jones." the Enallsh comic
opera, opened In Plalnfleld, New Jersey,
last week, and the event packed the
theatre with the bankers and brokers
and other New York bualness men who
go out to Plalnfleld each day after
business to see their families and
spend the night. Henry W. Savage went
over to see how his company of selected
entertainers acquitted themselves In the
roles fr which he Is paying them big
salaries) At the end of the performance
the audience remained In the theatre
and called for Mr. Savage, the ladles
being as Insistent as the men. Mr.
Savage had made his way to the theatre
office and was puffing a big, fat cigar
knd discussing with his staff the results
of the first performance of "Tom
Jones." The door was open and a man

and the two entered the office and.
grasping Mr. Savage by the mind, ex

press of persons who crowded into the
office to meet him. It was an episode

R& SARAH P. KINSEY, president
of the Indiana State federation, in
her annual letter to the clubs of
her state, has the following excellent ad
vice and Information to give regarding
membership In the General federation,
and which the clubs of Oregon may
read with profit to themselves:
At their meeting at Jamestown In
June, the council of the General Federa
tion of Women's clubs asked the state
presidents to obtain an expression from
their clubs, as to whether thev would
join tne u. jr. w. u tne aues were re
duced from 10 i.ents 'per . capita to S
cents per capita.
My advice Is that you Join without
regard to the dues. A Just appreciation
of the arreat work done by the a-eneral
federation and its wide Influence for good
wouia maae me iu cents xor oues seem
a matter of small consideration. Even
at the present rate many plans, felt to
be of benefit and interest to all. must

ly letter to the clubwomen of the
country with this stimulating greeting:
"With the coming of the autumn be
gins the splendid activities of the club

ures and benefits of friendly association
and concerted study. A good half year
in which to bring companionship and
cheer to the lonely and sad. In Which to
welcome the stranger. In which to com

wandered and got trodden under foot. In
which to srive happy, useful work to
Individual, state and nation.
A a-ood half year in which ever to
smile and never to sigh, In which to
have courage and faith and the divine
art of common sense. A glorious, stim
ulating outlook for 600,000 good friends,
good mothers and good citizens of a
