LOCAL THEATRICALS.
A Pleasing Play Presented by
Proficient Artists,

Corvallis is we'll supplied with talent in
all lines. In music we have people who can
entertain an audience splendidly with both
vocal and instrumental selections; our band
Is second to none in the state; our art deco
rators, while 'hiding their light under a
bushel" are still known to be doing artistic
work, We have promising orators and many
good elocutionsts But that the dramatic
field has not been neglected was strongly
evidenced last Friday night by the play
Comrades" which was rendered before
large and critical audience. The progress OF
the play from the first curtain rise to the
finale was marked by smoothness OF produc
IN, and absence of awkward bitches and
breaks, The company had been less than
three weeks in learning and drilling on the
drama, and the splendid manner i'll which 1t
was presented is an evidence of the ability
of the Young ladies and gentlemen compos-
ing the cast
Miss Ora Spangler as Mrs. Manning acted
the Young bride jealous of her husbands at
tentions, but generous-hearted still, to per
fect,on; and without that common error OF
over.acting the part. As Bess Bradley,
Miss Mildred Linville made her first ap.
pearance, and carried off her share of the
honors. She showed no signs OF the novice
and her presentation of the coquettish merry
maiden was pleasing in the extreme. MISS
Lillian Hamilton was the commedienne, and
Nancy Nipper herself could not have been
more at home with the lines. She seemed
to sparkle over with fun and her dialogue
with Simon Stone was breezy, and she was
apparently unconscious of the gaze of an au =
dience. Geo. Paul, as Roy Manning, more
than met the expectations of his auditors.
This is somewhat different role than any
he has heretofore been seen in, and served
to display the versatility as well as the
high order of his ability. John Allen was
dressed happily and spoke bis lines in an
admirable manner, and figured very natur'
ally in the love scenes with Bess. securing a
generous share of applause. Henry Pape
took the character of Matt Winsor as the
drunken tramp who reforms under the in
fusoce of his old conrade, Roy. Probably
this is the most difficult role in the cast, and
Mr.. Pape, especially in the heavier scenes,
displayed an artistic conception OF the part
and won for himself merited applause. Bert
Van Clsve took the comedy part OF Simon
Stone, ''jack of all trades, and rendered
It IN an inimitable manner. His natural
gifts as a comedian were displayed to good
advantage, making him the recipient oi
many compliments, and he vas rssallsd at

dienoe. The gentleman can be oongratula-

Enjoyable Party.

. For an impromptu affair the surprise
party in honor of Miss Mamie Bloss at
her home last Wednesday evening, was
one of the most successful parties of the
season.
Miss B1oss, during her stay in Corval
lis, has become quite popular among the
young people and her influence and
presence has manifested itself about the
college and made an impression on
whatever else she has taken an
interest in. The young ladies
at the college have found her aid invalu-
able to them in assisting in their arrange
ments and preparations for commence
ment and other public exhibitions, and
they will sadly miss their amiable and
interesting companion after next Mon
day when she leaves for her old home in
Indiana. Her mirth-loving disposition
has gained for her many friends in Cor
Wallis who will join her student friends
in wishing that she may soon return.
On this occasion Miss Bloss had in
vited Mrs. Casio and the young ladies at
the ladies' hall to spend the evening
with her. Wednesday morning the
thought occurred to Mr. Will H. Bloss
| that this would be good opportunity
to give his sister surprise and inlmedi-
ate1y put the idea into execution by in
viting the members of the ladies' mando-
lin club and their husbands, together
with few other friends, to spend the
evening. At O'Clock the guests be-
gan to arrive and before 9 the parlors OF
President Bloss' home were filled with
a merry company. The rooms were
tastefully decorated with potted plants
and about the fireplace ferns were ar
ranged with pleasing effect.
Music was the order of the evening and
several excellent selections, vocal and
instrumental, were rendered Miss Ora
Spang1er, Wallis Nash and w. Giffore
Nash delighted the company with
well executed piano instrumentals. Mis-:
Hattie Friendly, with her wonted grace
and talent, reclted "The Secrets of the
Heart" by Austin Dobson.
The ''blonde quartette, Messrs. Bloss
Yates, Johnson and Fulton, sang one O
their taking songs and responded to :
hearty encore. Will. Bloss screwed hi
voice up several points and sang song
to good effect Oil his hearers, but the eff
feet on his voice was too much and h
was unable to respond to the continued
demand for repetition.
After dainty lunch had been servet
the ladies' mandolin club played severa
pieces that completely captivated thos
who listened. Miss Bloss' piano sol
and encore, though trifle sad, was wei
received. DIR. and Mrs. J. M. Bloss as
sisted in receiving and did much towar,
the success of the evening.
