Based upon tti vfirdlct of 2300 peopl
aho filled all available seats last night
tt the Helli theatre,' '' The Portland
Press club made good in Ita benefit per
formance Representative' "J enthuat
ntic, but also discriminating, the Audi
ence responded to tha decisive hit of
ihe evening with applause which fairly
rumbled from .wall to wall 'and gave
proportionate approval to those of the
irtists whose offerings did not stir them
juito so much. . - ,
i Drawn bv the promise of a musical
program by Rosebrook's orchestra, be
ginning at 8 o'clock. Ihe audience was
seated early. Young women who are
ictlvely engaged in newspaper work, or
are relatives s of newspaper men, dis
tributed programs near the door., These
were artistio souvenirs Of about 120
pages, ; containing stories, sketches, a
number of pictures and bits of humor
roniribuled bv members of the Prc88
tlub.
Vincent XbkM AAixmt: '
Following the orchestral concert, Sid.
ney B. Vincent, president of the club,
made a brief address in.' which- he re-
luted the story of the establishment of
the club and Its rapid growui. H con
cluiW with an expression of thanks on
behalf of the organization to the pa
ti ws and to those who had contributed
their services to the - program.
The amusement features were
launched toy Naomi Ethardo, European
equilibrist, on the Pantages 'bill this
week, who presented some remarkable
contortionlstio and balancing feats. She
was followed y "Jimmy" Do Veaux,
whose stage presentations have previ
ously been confined 1 largely to stunts
In . ?rah rah" days, but who indicated
that he had ably trained his feet, while
improving his mind. '
Charloa Leonard Fletcher, who waa at
the Orpheum last week waa unable to
return to the city for last ntght'a per
formance, and the Varden, perry and
Wilbur trio were recruited from the
, Grand theatre as an extra number. They
Instantly obtained a grip on the audi
ence's favor with their stringed instru
wont a, singing and too-tapping presen
tation and were recalled several times.
Mrs. Stack Caarma.
dents in child life, Mrs. Zilpha Ames
Stack, wife of. a local railroad man
. showed herself to be an able raconteur.
She displayed a sympathetic, acquaint
ance with the little folks and in . wit
and the touches of cnlld tragedy she
wss equally successful. - " " '
The usual enthusiastic welcome waa
.'riven to Mra. 'Rose Uloch-Bauer, who
Hang as her first number, "You, Dear
and Uc," concluding with "In the Gar
den.". The sweet melodies were rendered
with the charm and voice always to be
found in the vocalist's presentations.
Rube Dickinson, who creates a dis
tinct class for himself with his rural
monologue, 1 won 1 his place on the pro
' gram with his opening words. The au
dience could not tire of his quaint man
ner and humor and he was forced to de
cline to return to the footlights because
of the length Of the program.
The demonstratioa by 'The , Great

. ireated intense interest Because of his
manipulations through the science and
drew- unrestrained laughs from his in
sertion of the comical element

The farce Bkctch Of Wilson-Franklyh
. Co., of Pnntages, was a clever bit
of acting and of a construction calcu
lated to; be hilariously funny without
becoming offensive.' '
Miss Alice Lloyd, the Orpheum head-j
liner, graceful, piquant and with a voice i
that rivals the clear , tone of a silver j
bell. . presented'-, a'i number of costume
changes with songs in keeping and only
succeeded in creating in the audience
desire for more. Her "hobble skirt"
song and "Splash Me. ' were perhaps
best liked, although the nttle English
woman in the past ' has demonstrated
that anything she choosis Is Invested
with an attraction not, previously im
agined, - - " , ' , ! '
Miss Grape Cameron, starring in
"Nancy" at the Bungalow, came .over
to start the reverberations with the ap
plause which followed each of her con
tributions. : HerV "Heaven "Will Protect
the Working Girl," was greeted with
enthusiasm not surpassed at any time
in the evening. "; v'
It Slipped In.
Somewhere in a dark corner of the
Press -club ' quarters, s a little band not
of, mercyhatched - a "surprise,", which
they launched under the guise f fA
Crying Need,'' drawing sobs of hope
that the author might reform,: Most of
the members who mads their local stage
debut declare they had "done things" in
days of college theatricals and aver that
tha man who concocted the alleged skit
waa , entirely . responsible for the de
struction of their Portland hopes. The
conclusion thejf desire to have made is
that the talent was there, but that it
was .distorted ., beyond precognition
through misdirected efforts. ;
The Orpheus chorus, under the direc
tion of Professor W. H. Boyer, ' con
cluded' the evening "with a splendid
blending of some of the most able male
voices in the City and as a final num
ber the audience arose with them and;

Those who took part fn the perform
ance; members of the club and their
guests afterward adjourned to the Hotel

feays a customer this atter-
noon, after he had been trying
for half an hour to catch ihc
salesmanager's eye, in the jam in
front of the real estate department
of Hartman & Thompson's Bank,
One agent stood on the outside of the
crowd with four fingers extended,
to catch a clern s attention,
meaning that he had just sold four lots.
.That's jtt Good things do not. last
always. These, lots are goirg fast. .
A prominent real estate man ta this
town said: "We. do not ut.derstand
how you can do iL" Our reply to h,im
was "that property well bought was
half sold." . ' ' . V
And this is the reason that we can
sell it to you so cheap.-Remember the
