Mil Some three thousand of Kugene theater Jovera CJine to the new Lowell last night for its gala opening. All came expectant, eagt-r, curiuuo. They guzed about, heard the new orgau, were charmed with the fine pictures. Theo they filed uut, slowly, relucuut to have a plutre no bfjiutiful. Eugene uuw has a theater that it can well be proud of, a playhouse eijuul to the f.ne entertainment that opened it. It is a structure with a spirit, and Inst night, as the mighty orgau played softly, as the Jtgiiu giowed in iridemeut warmth lmm ulmve, there was a friendly spirit about. Many who came were friend of A. II. McDonald, and to them the beauty and eaariii of the interior gave forth a deep feeling. These peop.e felt the yy that was to have been that of Mr. McDonald and the mem ory of tlits man, whose dream has be come a reality for his friends in Ku gene, will come bach each time they i inter the foyer. Long Lines Wait. It was a joyous opening night, just as (he builder would have wished. Long before the doors were opin-d tiie tpieues of waiting patrons wen.' farmed, and us the un formed door man upt'tttd the portal.t, they throne ed in, to greet the (heater and it t beauty with exclamations of de.ighf.

The pic ture was alt that hud been claimed lor it, and liloria Swanson, as the devil-may-care Frenee vjvandiere, won ber way to every neari id me uumcucc The picture itself deserves worlds of praise. It is indeed a glowing mas terpiece, full of nil the warm-blooded iti aiid ft rvr of the French revolu tionary days, full of all the splendor ami pmp of the Napoleonic reign, Vet it is human all the time. The audience is ever sympathetic with tiie Iit:e In und re f who cannot become accus tomed to court manners yet who can ! take her place bravely on the bat tlefield. First Presentation. 'Madame Nuns Gene" was present ed for (fie first time in the northwest last nijlit, but this is not what nuko it notable. It is a wonderful picture, a marvelous presentation of devotion. Into it is woven u tale of intrigue t hat con d be found nowuere except in a Frt tirli court. It is historically accu rate, and its ect'iies of the Kniich revolution are carefully and fully pre sented. Ii is indescribably beautiful. The picture is worthy of the new theater, and the new theater is worthy of the picture, a matchless combina tion. Kugene is deeply indebted to the builders of this new theater. To the man who first dreamed the project must he given first credit to Mr. A, 1 1. McDonald goes first hoiurs. A W'ifd must be said for those who planned with him, George H. S h-ic-lei-N, ( linr.es J. Sciiaefers. Frnhk X. Scliueferx, and Alhert T. Sehaefers. The entire huildhtg was ei nstruetai by Stien Mlrotht rs, contraeiors, and then the interior of the theater was turned over to the H. F. Shearer cm-' puny for decoration.
