Dante'S Inferno

Dante must have had a glorious
lag" on when he conceived his
visions OF Inferno as depicted on
the screens at the Multnomah last
night In his plan OF hell we no.
ticed that he made a most serious
omission: No place was provided
Tor delinquent subscribers Anoth-
er cocktail might have conjured a
scene appalling enough for such in
his vivid Imagination We did not
expect any place had been provided
in Satans domain for newspaper
men, and was gratifed TO know
that even Dante, IN his disordered
state, made no provision for them,
A strange part OF this hell of Dan
te was that there were few women
there-which would be hell in IL
self for some of those there. How
ever there were a few longhaired
males supposed to represent certain
females The production in its en-
tirety was splendid and brilliant
one, the stage setting being on a
magnificent scale The theatre
was crowded to It's doors. and all
seemed to enjoy the trip to the low
er regions immensely
Mr. Nelson deserves much credit
tor this production as we learn now
that he and a friend rented the
theatre from Mr., Salmond for the
occasion and that the picture would
not have been shown had these
two gentlemen not taken il upon
themselves to risk il alone.
