THE WHITE HEA THEIR.

One of the principals in 1.-THE White
Heather, !" which begins a four nights
engagement at the Jefferson on Wednes-
day, November 2S, will be Miss Olive
May. Miss MAY is one of those on the
American stage who Ecombine the most
attractive kind of daintiness with his-
trionio ability of high order, and who
can run the gamut from "bit'' comedy
parts to5the heaviest sort of an emotional
role. She will be the Lady Mollie Fan
shave of sEThe White Heather part
which she played all last season in the
Academy of Music, New York. This
part is the first one Miss May has played
since her somewhat famous SUCCESS in
aThe Butterflies" with Mr.. John Drew,
which, it is generally understood, led TO
her marriage with the author of the play
Mr.. Henry Guy Carlton. This part OF
Lady Fanshawe is declared to be an ex-
ceedingIy good comedy one, giving every
opportunity to the clever young actress
who has it in charge. In one scene Of the
play the much-praised Batuersea Park

AS the time draws near for the initial
presentation of Zephra in Portland the
GREAT event occurring tonight--the enthu.
siasm of committees, management and
particirants increases hourly. Never be-
fore in the history of amateur productions
have prospects looked SO favorable nor has
the box office advance sale indicated such
a phenomenal success.
Zephra is spectacle that one has to
sac more than once in order to drink in
all the beauties of the gorgeous entertain
ment. 1t is an immense kaleideospcope
Of beautiful color harmony, shifting
pictures aud fairly like scenes. 1t is as
dainty as the perfume of the violet, as
pure as a dream of childhood and as re-
freshing as summer shower, couched In
language that clearly tells beautiful
story of elfland folk lore, and illustrated
by fairy like scenes. Zephra is an enter
tainment that will live in the memory OF
every person who sees it.
