VMk, for It will be the first real muni .- cal comedy offering of tbe season. It Ls presented by Arthur Hammerstein after an immense success In New Tors, and, wonder of wonders. It is being .sent to the coast witn a metropolitan cast. Wholesome and Irresistibly fun ny, Stella.

"Secret Service," one of the dramas of the Civil war that never grows old, in the offering of the Baker players for this week. The play was written j - by William Gillette, and used by him ' as a starring vehicle. It is the story of a young officer of the United States army who. goes down into the south during the siege of Kicnmond. Through i .his knowledge of telegraphy his ruse for the capture of the city is about to culminate, when the love . element triumphs 'and causes him tdchange - his plana. William II. Powell will " play the Gillette role. NEW YORK is to have a revived New .Theatre in the fall with Granville Barker, the English actor And producer at the helm, provided Mr. Barker's present season of dra J ma tic performances at Wallack's is successful. Practically the same men who were behind the old New Theatre are back of the new plan which will be similar to the one put into effect -under Winthrop Ames a repertory theatre to produce high class plays. - The fatal mistake of the original In stitution, that of having too large an auditortum, will be eliminated if the "new venture is launched, and a seat- ing capacity of not more than 1200 . will be provided. In speaking of the new plan one of the backers said: "The New Theatre idea has never died. An. attempt was made to develop : it in an auditorium that was too large "for the proper presentation of plays, except the most spectacular ones. The ruuning expenses of the house were enormous. Yet the audiences were al ways of good size, and we feel that in more intimate surroundings the scheme would have been a success. "What we have been looking for is a man to build up the theatre about. Given tbe men, we believe its success Is assured. We feel that Mr. Barker willcprove to be that man. and if his present season is a Buccess he will probably assume the directorship of a - revived New Theatre, which he will manage in connection with his London repertory house." rTTHE possibilities of the English JL libel law as pertains to newspap ers was Illustrated to the accompany - tnent of 16000- and costs when Gladys - Cooper, considered one of the most beautiful women on the English stage, ; i was given that verdict by the courts V against the "London Mail," a weekly publication. On July H the Mall pub lished a single paragraph, under 20 lines in length, referring to an lm- - pending scan die in theatreland but mentioning no names. Miss Cooper and other witnesses swore that they considered the paragraph aimed at her and the Jury brought in a verdict in her favor after being out only a few minutes. 'A MADE in Portland playlet, "A Jt. Slip in Eugenics," is soon to make . Its appearance on Pantages circuit. It la - the work of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Barnes of Multnomah station, who are also - collaborating In a number of longer musical works. The skit was , bought by Robert Dill, who appeared recently at the Portland Pantages. It - is a. broad comedy, dealing with the 'tjuestion of eugenic marriages. 1 WILLIAM A. BRADY has proved the one New York manager who was-brave enough to take the pro verbial bull by the horns and present Broadway with a war play in which the Brifeteh ,and Germans are pitted "against one another. "The White : - Feather" is Jibe title and late reports are to the effect that it is proving a success. The British war ofice suc ceeds in overthrowing the plans of the German Secret Service agents, who have heen actuated by highest pa triotism and who meet their fate in .,' the calm consciousness of a duty per . formed for the Fatherland. 'THE HIGHWAY Of LIFE," Louis " N. Parker's dramatization of "David Copperfield" which did not prove a success in New York earlier In the season, is meeting a kinder fate in London where it is being pre- eented at this time with Sir Herbert Tree doubling in the roles of Micawber and Dan'l Pegotty. The play is also to be done In Boston under the title f "David Copperfield." TkfORE thffti 250 play manuscripts ' ATI were received in Los Angeles during the first 10 days of the ex istence of the Oliver Morosco Play Heading bureau. In fact, since the bureau was established in the Bur- bank theatre, January 1, the influx of plays has been so great that the number of professional readers has 1 been Increased from five -to 10. On ,. account of the great number of plays that accumulated at the bureau prior . to Its opening, Mr. Morosco has so far been unable to keep to his time schedule in the return of manuscripts - and it has been necessary to suspend the schedule until the readers catch tip with their work. ' THE first performance on the pro fessional stage in the United States of "Chitra" was made in Bos- ton's Toy theatre last week by a new organization known as the Modern Drama Players. "Chitra" is the most . Important dramatic work of Rabin - dranoth .Tagore, the Hindu poet who 'was awarded the Nobel prize for lit erature two years ago... The play may be taken on an eastern tour. - rT,HE Ultimatum; or, Every Man - A Has His Price" is the title of a new play Just completed by Sir Her bert Beerbohm Tree. It Is said that - It-concerns a certain -"Ruler of a Great People and his chiropodist. All things .taken into consideration it might be "suspected that an anti-German flavor. wlll predominate in the new work. A. SCORE without a flaw, beautiful Jt settings, an excellent cast that "in some particulars is a very unusual one, are some of the comments in the Dramatic Mirror on "What's Going Onr Miles Overholt's musical comedy . that opened . a two week's engagement . at the Cort theatre in Boston the first of this month, ' - . , . X GARTTSO, the tenor, has gone la for charity. . Yielding to an impulse few days ago he gave his coat to s : shlverling man in the Knickerbocker Hotel. New;! York, bread line.

Movies on Decline, Says Hammerstein Hothing Hew In Pictures and People Are Getting Tired of Seeing Same Old Things, He Asserts. Oscar Hammerstein has this to say about motion pictures: "The movie ls'on the decline. .There is nothing new in the pictures, and the people are growing tired of seeing the same old things. I believe the cycle is swinging back to the drama and melodrama for the masses, and if I were a young man in search of an avocation i wouia oecome a producer." Mr. Hammerstein, who was not al lowed to have grand opera in his New York theatre which he built for the purpose, tried motion pictures in it without success, and now he is seek ing to sell the house, for he declares It eats greenbacks like an alligator.

Two women, the Misses Alice and Irene Lewisohn, daughters of the late Leonard Lewisohn of New York, who have visited in Portland and who have a number of friends here, are Important members of the group of people who launched the Neighbor hood playhouse a week ago Friday night in New York. The theatre is New York's latest sociological theatrical experiment and is being watched with keen interest by-those with similar ideals in other cities. A comfortable sized theatre has been built at 466 Grant street on the east side for the purpose of develop ing a community playhouse where the racial traditions of the neighborhood will find artistic expression and where serious plays and comedies as well as other forms of entertainment may be given. The weekly program will be varied and admission will be 5 and 10 cents, except Saturday and Sunday evenings, when it will "be 25 and 50 cents. Saturday and Sunday evenings will be devoted to the work of the Neigh borhood Players and there will be oc casional performances in Yiddish and English by visiting companies. The programs on other days will be made up with playlets, folk songs and dances, illustrated fairy tales, mario r.ettes. music and motion pitcures. Performances will continue from 1:30 to 11 p. m. and between the hours of 3 and 6 the program will be of special interest to school children. The Neighborhood playhouse was opened with a biblical festival in three parts, ".Teptha's Daughter," based on the recital of Jeptha's vow in the Book of Judges. The chojus and processionals, the dances ar ranged in arrnaic forms of the orien tal color combined with the language of the Bible, did much to convey the spirit of the tribal days of the ancient Jews and to interpret the traditions of the neighborhood with which the playhouse is identified. Much of the preparatory work of the production was done by Ameri cans and a goodly portion of it on the east side, where friends and fami lies of those who had assisted saw the work. The cast consisted of 60 persons, most of them from the festi val and dramatic groups of the Henry Street settlement, where for the past eight years they have been taught the rudiments of , dramatic art by the Misses Lewisohn. Scenery, properties and costumes were made by classes in the Neighborhood playhouse. The. crchestra score incorporated some tra ditional Jewish melodies. The policy of the Neighborhood Playhouse Is directed by an advisory group composed of Miss Lilian D, Wald, Max Morgenthau Jr., Mrs. Rita Morgenthau and the producing staff, Mrs. Sara Cowell LeMoyne. the Misses Lewisohn. Miss Agnes B. Morgan and Miss Helen Arthur. The Neighbor hood playhouse is held by those who keep an ear close to the theatrical ground as. one of the first indications of a big movement effecting the American stage.
