THE MARQUAM.
Richard Mansfield is a disappointment
While the packed house at the Marquam
last night gave considerable evidence of
approval it was largely due to the ex
tensive advertising which Mr. Mansfield
has persistently had thanks to a very
good press agent but he is not the ac
tor, that one would naturally be lead to
believe. If Mr. Mansfield had appeared
before that audlanee. last evening; -gander
A name totally tinknowh In PortbVnd
the Marquam Grand management would
have been takefl ; seriously to taskllor
palming off something not up to expecta
tions, but because It was Mr. Mansfield
and the seats had come high, the audi
ence took It for granted before going
that the entertainment was very supe
rior, and that they would, get their
money's worth. In all of which they were
mistaken. Mr. Mansfield Is not a great
actor.
In his character as Beaucalre he falls
far short of making a graceful, enter
taining Frenchman, such as Booth Tark
ington had in mind when writing the
story. Mr. Mansfield's poses v and ges
tures, even his articulation is bad when
Criticised from a particularly artistic
standpoint. He might just as well be
taken for a German as a.' Frenchman,
and his poses and his 'gestures are
neither elegant nor artistic Comparing
!nv-.ttth' such a . man -as: Mr. Willard.
who recentfy appeared at the same place
to half empty benches, there is a large
difference fla can well be - noted. Mr.
WMlard is head and shoulders above
him from every point of view. Mr. Mans

the American stage, assumes the whole
.how, and as a consequence has a sup

An Interesting Talk on the Sub
, Ject by Mrs. Hidden.
The,. Varied work being done by the
Women's clubs of the country was told
in a most interesting waypby Mrs, M.
Trenholm Hidden, of Vancouver, at the
central meeting of the W. C. T. U. at
Taylor Street church yesterday after
noon. Her idea was to present the mat'
ter so it would, awaken interest among
those present and she was eminently
successful.
In introducing her lecture she said
"It Is a good thing to glance over fields
other than our own as we are so apt to
overlook what others are doing and
think only of ourselves. We of the
churches and W. C. T. U.'s make a mis
take in not allying ourselves with other
good organizations. I belong to a num
ber of clubs and never did I realize un
til I attended the bl-ennlal federation at
Los Angeles what a great philanthropic
work they are doing. They have adopted
the 'do-everythlng policy. Although the
membership ot these clubs Is made up of
what la termed the 'cream ot society.
yet during the convention scarcely a
thought was given to ' social gatherings.
only one reception being held."
She then spoke of the advantage of
clubs in their various lines and ended
by showing what could be accomplished
In the matter of reform movements if
