Review notes Russell shares honors with Mantell in a Moore Theatre performance. Mantell’s range spans Macbeth to Richelieu with strong stage presence and natural equipment. Russell’s portrayal, though tied to a strong cast, anchors a vivid Macbeth era scene amid mixed reception from the audience.
Mantell arrived with two cast members to stage Macbeth, supported by Brite in a strong but not flawless performance. The audience was large for the season, and critics noted occasional manuscript cuts though not disastrous, with William Winter guiding this edition for Mantell.
At the Majestic a lineup features John Griffith in The Bells as a leading act while audience sentiment crowns Lew Shaw and wife for billiard mirror tricks. The show also includes Mattie Lockette and Dowling’s Verdi pieces with violin selections and vocal numbers.
A freak musical offering by a Marimba band from Guatemala opens the Pantages bill with crystalline and popular airs on unusual instruments, drawing a big audience reaction. Brooks and Carlisle present a sketch The Limit in a rapid comedy run, with playful acrobatics and musical stunts interspersed by Millards and dancing acts.
An unclear archival clipping mentions a shopping center area with references to a high point and a faded style. The text includes partial names and dates but is largely unreadable and lacks full context.
The Orpheum presents a varied program including Mr Bunner’s Bow with a comedy plot set around coffee and decanter mischief. Matt Hennen stars in A Frozen North while an intelligent colored performer delivers a vivid act. A series of notable pictures rounds out the program, offering entertainment across multiple acts.
The National Opera company presented Boccaccio at the Alhambra last night with high musical merit and lavish production. Miss Helmi held the title role with strong votes and personality, supported by a fitting ensemble and lively numbers. The run continues for the rest of the week at the Alhambra.
The program features Anna Laughlin with a light solo act in Toyland and Wizard of Age, a boy soprano with a remarkable voice, Marshall Montaume's ventriloquism, The Nobient Roman of Them All with Lestie Hunt, La Rowe and La Jueta on slack wire, the Five Jugs and Normans in the joker, and Dance In Dreamland tonight.
A striking advertising sign has been completed for the Oregon and Washington railroad at Beconday and Marion. It features a rear view of the Shasta Limited, the swift luxury train operating on the Oregon and Washington and Southern Pacific lines. The train leaves Seattle daily at 11 am, reaches Portland at 5 30 pm, and arrives in Francisco the next evening.
