"Raffles" at the Baker.
The lons-looked-ior production of
"The Mysterious Mr. Raffles" by the
Baker stock company will open this aft
ernoon for the week, George Alison
playing the title' role of the gentleman
thief. This wlll.be the first opportu
nity 'Portland , theatre-goers have had
of seeing this really great play at other
than high prices, and the advance sale
of- seats for the entire week lndlcatea
that theatre-goers are talcing advantage
of it In unusual numbers. The story

necklace has disappeared. The rest of
the play-takes place in the apartments
or Karnes in town, and are of the
most intensely . interesting character.
Raffles is represented as a man who
does these things, not from a desire of
gain or booty, but because of a mental
affliction that craves excitement of the
abnormal 'kind and for the satisfaction
of this craving forces htm to take
these risks of being discovered In a
most dangerous calling-, and fills him
with supreme happiness waen he es

the barest fraction of success.

Tyroleans at Pantages.
Capacity patronage and good shows
corftlnue to be the rule at Pantages.
The management of the popular Fourth'
street house has caught the public fancy
by presenting unequaled attractions and i
Intends to keep right on so doing. Fo
the week Just ending the billing
been a satisfactory one in every way
There was some disappointment at first
that Makmurl, the great violinist, did
not appear. But the sudden Illness ot
that artist made his appearance impos
sible. He is now In a Seattle hos
pital, but hopes to be along soon.
Manager Johnson met the emergency
by drawing on the reserve list for two
acts. Every act proved of a high stand
ards and those who haven't seen tbe
show should avail themselves of a last
opportunity today.' i
The new bill speaks for itself. Run
your eye down the ad, on the other side
of the paper there, and the list can be
compared with the billing of any house
lnvthe country. The troupe of Tyrolean
singers, 14 In the troupe, will be tbe
top-line act in a striking little operetta,
"Life in the Alpine Hills."
There will be a second feature of
note in the novel electrical musical act
f roduced by the Bimm Bom Br-r-r-r
rio. These clever musicians bring a
new act with them from Europe and
the tarn is bound to be widely enjoyed
here.
Monohan, the great skater, shows you ,
what remarkable things can really be
done from the deck of a pair of skates.
He does things you wouldn't believe
possible without seeing.
Daly and O'Brien, tanglefoot danoers,
Introduce a lot of new twists In the
dancing line. They are among the fast
est and funniest dancers that have ever
hit the coast.
Crawford and Meeker, sinsins and
dancing comedians, have a reputation.
Jean Wilson will sing a new Illustrated
song and the blograph will present
something new in the moving picture
line. You'll like the new show.
Mrs. Patrick Campbell
To many Mrs. Patrick Campbell Is
the greatest actress on the English'
speaking stage, in either England or
America. It Is therefore small wonder
that so much has been said and writ
ten of her. Her appearance in this city
at the Heilig theatre, April 6 and 7, will
be one of the dramatic , and society
events of thehrrent theatrical season.
One of the ndTed men of letters of the .
rrencn capital said of her: "More than .
anything else, Mrs. Patrick Campbell
resembles a magnolia flower." That Is
not romancing or exaggeration either.
It is a mere attempt at description, and
a pretty fair- one. Her skin has the
creamy, rich texture of It; her heavy
lidded eyes and her lagy, graceful mo
tions nave tne languor or it. And there
are other things to which one can liken
Mrs. Campbell? She Is the soul of a
panther, clothed in a human body a
suitable as one could wish; a soul with
al 1 the power to spring, a power the
greater that It is nearly always held In
check. And to be more matter of fact,
she is a Barne-Jones goddess" whose
lithesome figure Is swathed In laoe and !
silk, and she is something that never
happened before a Burne-Jones sod-
dess with a mighty heart. The heart is,
after .all, the most important thing.
To some the fact that Mrs. Campbell I
possesses the attributes and rare-charm
of the exotic . flower; that she has the " ;
exquisite profile; that her hair looks ;
raven-black with purple lights in U
this may be to- some people, misguided
as others may think them, a lucky acci- 4
dent and Homething extraneous. It
dees not seem that, she could be differ-
ent, but, for the sake of argument, "let's
pretend" that this wonderful woman -
did not have her wonderful - appear- I
anoe; .she has still her wonderful heart, i
which exnresses Itself in so marvelous i
a way that all one can do is to watch
her spell-bound, to laugh with her and

ager George L. Baker Is going to give
Portland theatre-goers and students of
the great Norwegian dramatist, Hcnrlck
Ibsen, a chance to see the Baker com
