Great Stage Success Is to Be
Shown at the Heilig
Theatre on Nov, 12
"The Tony Express," produced
for Paramount by James Cruse
and now playing at the Oregon
theatre, is a well-knit and thrill
ing story of the West just .prior
to the election of President Lin
coln, when California was i. hesi
tating between North and South,
showing the inauguration and op
eration of the famous Pony Ex
press and giving a glimpse of the
young Mark Twain.
Jack Weston, a debonair gam
bler and a dead shot, has; been
condemned to die because of his
anti-slavery orations by Senator
Glen, who leads the Southern i
cause in: California, but be es
capes and. goes to Julesburg,
where he becomes a Pony Express
rider. - , j
lllis rival for the hand of ; Molly
Stevens is Slade, superintendent
of the Overland Stage company,
a notorious "bad man" who tries
to discredit Weston in the eyes
of Molly and who later makes an
unsuccessful attempt on his lite.
Slade has arranged with Glen to
- suppress the news . of Lincoln's
election in order that California
f may be swung over to the South-
'ern side, this state being an im
portant factor in the fight against
slavery. . t
; The story tells of the defeat of
Blade's plans by Weston's wit and
daring. Weston assists in the de
fense of Julesburg against a band
of Indians led by a half-breed in
league with Slade. Weston wins
the girl and is later elected to
political office.
' , This is a story combining his
torical fact with the element of
romance that distinguished the
West of former days.
- Betty Compson, Ricardo Cortez,
Ernest Torrenee and Wallace
Beery are featured in the cast of
the production. The story is by
Henry James Forman and Walter
Woods.
The biggest thing Cruze has
' done yet is what - Paramount
, claims of "The Pony Express."

"How do you like painting from
head to foot every day?" This
unique question was asked Isabelle
Herbert.
For the benefit of those unitiat
ed in the knowledge of the charac
ter of Tomdeleyo, which she will
play at the Heilig Thursday, Nov
ember 12, suffice to say that it is
one which requires the services of
a colored maid to completely cover
Miss Herbert's body with a coat
of light "tan from head to foot.
Tondeleyo in "White Cargo" is an
alluring primitive vamp whose
blood contains a mixture of
French and native West African,
combining the impulsive character
of the Parisienne with the prim
itive passions of the jungle wom
an, and as she correctly describes
herself, "'most white."!
Miss Herbert's makeup is an
elaborate one to put on and to
take off, so, in orde'rlto play the
primitive she requires jail the mod
ern, up to date plumbing systems.
However, modern theatres of to
day are equipped with baths and
showers. The producer, Earl Car
roll, has provided against contin
gencies by carrying a collapsible
bath tub, so that Miss Herbert,
with the help of her maid, can be
boiled white after each perform
ance. "If 'cleanliness is next to
Godliness', then I'm sijirexf it, for
I've done much scrubbing and
washing in this part" jshe said.
The interviewer said: "Miss Ho
bert, you look familiar to .me, but
your wonderful makeup hides your
features. I just can't place where
I've seen you before.'l Mis3 Her
bert smilingly replied: "I'm glad

in fact do a little bit of everything
to entertain.
To close the show Kenny and
Burt known as the Flying Sailors
will work on the rings, and fea

part of the program. The bill is
well balanced and offers plenty
of comedy. S

"Hell Bent for Heaven." one of ,
the strangest and most entertain
ing dramas ever written, which
comes to the Heilig theater in this"
city Tuesday night, November 3,
is declared to be the best dramatic
vehicle in which Forrest Taylor
has ever appeared. The Taylor
players, with Miss Anne Berry man
in the leading feminine role, pre
sented this drama at tthe Heilig
theater in Portland for five per
formances last "week, and played
before capacity houses at each per
formance. It proved so popular
that word comes from Portland
that Mr. Taylor is being urged to
repeat it at a later engagement.
Portland reviewers gave Mr. Tay
lor's role the most laudable no
tices ever given a production in
that city.
"Hell Bent for Heaven" was
written bv Hatcher Hughe3. and
was awarded the Pulitzer prize of
1924 sis the best dramatic offering
of that season. It tells a pictur
esque story of the quaint folk of
the Blue Ridge mountains of Ten-
nessee and bares them in their
loves, prides, feuds and hatreds
as few dramas have done. Mr.
Taylor's part is that of jRufe
Pryor, the religious fanatic, who
believes himself a divine instru
ment and who nearly wrecks a
village and two families in his ef
fort to re-kindle an old feud and
win the hand of a mountain girl.
It is described as one of those
plays which is never forgotten
once it has been seen.
