Miss Ida st. Leon in the role of
Polly, the little circus girl in Mar
garet Mayo's remarkable domestic
comedy-drama, under the direction of
Frederick Thompson, which comes to
the Oregon theater Sunday, January
14th, is the first really grown up
part that Ida st. Leon has played. At
that, it is not so very much grown
up; the little equestrenne Is sup
posed to be eighteen years old and
that is Miss ST. Icons age to a
month. Polly of the Circus" besides
being one of the largest productions
ever made by Mr. Thompson, is in
tricate and difficult to handles; for
the circus scene of the last act 1t is
necessary to so arrange a network of
ropes that the tent can be erected
and cleared away in an almost in
CT edbly brief time. One scene is that
of an actual ring performance with
fifty people and a dozen animals all
in action. The next scene is that of
vacant lot; to preclude any possi-
pility of impatience on the part of the
audience, it is necessary to make a
complete change in less than fifty
seconds.
The company which supports Miss
st. Leon is one or unusual strength.
II numbers a great many members
of the original Polly of the Circus
| cast and others chosen for their re-
spective parts by Mr.. Thompson.

New York.-Driving in Berlin one
day ten years ago the Grand Duke of
Schleswig- Holstein sped toward a
child. The youngster, standing in the
street, laughed at the speeding horse.
Death seemed unavoidable, but Gun
ther K Licks, son of the owner of the
Continental Hotel, dashed from the
pavement and showed the child out OF
the way. Licks was struck by the
horses and bruised severely.
The duke was so impressed that he
took the young mans name and re-
quested him to call. When Licks did
so he received a costly scarfpin, on
which was his initials and the words
"for gallantry."
In 1906 Licks and his father visited
Egypt, In Cairo the pin was stolen
A reward was offered in vain. After
