Bungalow. 'The securlnr of thin play
U a triumph for Manager. Baker.
- The Bale of aat for "The Man on
the Box" It unusually large, and there
Is every evidence of a big week coming.
The play has never been seen here be
fore at other than high rrlces, and Its
popularity is unquestioned. The book
from which tt was dramatized has long
been one of the best sellers, and the
play Is even more Interesting than the
story. It concerns the adventures of
a wealthy young society man, who by
accident becomes temporary coachman
to the family of a charming young girl
whom he has never met, but whom he
has long- adored, having seen her on a
European steamship crossing the At
lantic This role was made famous by Max
Flgman. who has appeared in it In this
city, and is the most successful role he
ever played In. While "The Man on the
Rox" Is essentially a Comedy, there are
several exceedingly strong dramatic ait
uatlons Involved in the plot, and many
good actlnar parts besides the leads.
Mlas Jewel will play the role of the
girl, and Sydney Ayres that of the man
whose reckless and carefree disposition
gets them ail in such serious trouble.
It ll doubtful If the Bungalow will be
able to accommodate half the people
who want to see "rue Man on the Box

far from tame or uninteresting. I
Grace Fassmore is a singer of coon

Mile. Fregolia Is well known abroad

A prize attraction is to be offered iy
the Blunkall stock company at the Lyric
this week, commencing this afternoon.
In the shape of the very brand" newest
western comedy-drama, "A Montana
Girl." This, is a beautiful play which
combines the best features of all the
recent western dramas like The. Vir
ginian," "The Sauawman" and others. It

fact this will be its first production

tion for artistic portrayals of roles of
this nature. An elaborate production

a story that is full of point and rea

Lincoln J. Carter's new melodrama,
"Too rroud to Beg," will be the at
traction at the Star, commencing with

said that Mr. Carter has departed' f rorfi

depends more on the beautiful story of
the piece for success than on scenic or
mechanical effects. The first set, opens
at the office of Inspector Sharp, where
the villainous plans are laid. The last
scene of the act shows the old ware

well spoken of, and there are two clever

over the announcement that the Baker
Stock company will present the greatest
of all college plays, "Strongheart," and
many could hardly believe It had been
released for stock Duroosea But Man

"Hip Hip Hooray" Coming.
One of the. largest productions on
the road this season is "Hip Hip Hoo
ray," which will be seen at the Baker
all week, startjng next Sunday matinee,
November 22, with Rice and Cady as the
sicians and artists, and she Is full to
ninnlne over with temoerament.
' And temperament Is not all that Miss
Glose has to show. She sings well,
olavs well, has lots of magnetism, a
rreat deal of stvle. Is rid u ant. and
wondrous good looker. She has another
attraction constantly with her a most
devoted mother, who never Is out of
earshot from her daughter. But Mrs.
Glose has her own charms, and so she
Is never In the way.
It is a strange coincidence that brings
both Miss Glose and Eugenie Barker
together again. Some years ago when
they were both working very hard at
their profession, they bad the same
teacher,- and were in each other s com
pany a great deal.
This teacher was Adolf Glose, the
father of Augusta Glose. He Is the
only teacher that his daughter has
ever had, and he Is very proud of his
pupil.
Oh, I will tell you about rny family
tree, which, large and old. Is not a
'shady one,'" said Miss Glose., "My
grandfather on mother's side, was Carl
Welse. He will be remembered by tha
f.eople of the last generation as the
enor wh6 sang with Jennie Llnd, and
who later sang .with Patti. He must
have had a wonderful voice. '
"My father' father was not allowed
to study music, as his father considered
tt fceneath av man to be musical. The
poor man decided that he would take
up the commercial side. If he could not
help with the artistic side of music,
a-nd so) he established a piano factory
In Germany. - I have often seen old
pianos on the continent, and a few in
America, with the jiame "Olose' on the
cover. Wouldn't it De nice lor ma to
have ona of them . .. ... .
'Well, my grandfather said that his
children should ot be deprived of the
joy of life, as ha was, and he gave them
all good musical educations. I- now
have two maiden aunts In Philadelphia
who are supporting themselves by their
?usic, and father Is teaching in New
ork and doing concert work. -"My
going on the stage was all an
accident. I had Intended going on with
my music for three years more and
coming out as a pianist. X was on
the point of sailing for Paris to study
with Mm a. Carreno,. when father was

Miss Anna Gifford, in
"Little
Johnny Jones."
Miss Anna Gifford, la "Little Johnny
Jones." which comes to the Baker thea
tre this week, likes to play one night
stands. The attraction Miss Gifford
finds lies In the amusing Incidents and
occurrences which constantly come to
her notice In the smaller towns. In a
certain town In Iowa Miss Gifford was
invited to attend a meeting of the Wo
man's club. She. accepted . the Invita
tion. The principal lecturer was a
maiden lady who -talked of, "What Wo
men Can Do." Id expounding her claim
to superloflty, the lecturer said:'
"A woman can hold more clothespins
In her mouth and talk through a knot
hole in the fence at the seme time,
than a man can. Six women can talk
at once and get along all right. Men
can't do this. She can button her shoes
with both feet on the floor. She is cool
as a cucumber in half a oosen tight
dresses. A man will perspire like a
horse and growl In ope loose snirt."
Miss Clifford is the clever newspaper
woman in the tuneful and popular Cohan
play. It will be presented at popular
? Hoes In Portland for the first time
his week.
, Heading the company this year, as
last is Billy Keongh. as "The Un
known," one of Cohan's most, unctous
characters. Charlie Brown is "Johnny
Jones," while Ada .Gifford and Amy
Mortimer take other strong parts. Many
popular songs - will: be heard and a
