BRIDGE OF THE GODS
TO BE SPECTACULAR

/ With over one hundred spotlights.
electric sesrchlights and floods being
used 10 the great production Of the
Bridge Of the God" at the.beginning
of the Rose festival at Multnomah
/ Field, Portland. Saturday, June 8. and
Monday, June, 10, there will be con-
sumed enough electrical energy to run
/ the whole lighting and power plant of
Portland for three days, during the two
performances.
The eruption Of Mount Hood will be
the result of the most daring electrical
effects ever used IN Oregon, while the
scene at the torture fire will be realis-
tic to every detail, as the flames and
fire arrows flash about the victim. To
illuminate the great Multnomah Field
will require a tremendous quantity of
current, enough being consumed 10 run
every trolley car in Portland for five
hours.
Five hundred Indians will be shown
in the tribal battles, while the dance
of the Indian maidens on forest leaves,
of which 10 car loads are being OBJ
tained, will be one of the most striek-
ing sights Imaginable. Sixteen cars of
FIR boughs will be brought to Portland
to give the true appearance of the
woods.
Miss Mabel Farris, who presented
1.-The Bridge of the Gods, Balch's
story of 0regon's Indian days, at the
Astoria Centennial, has written an
entirely new and much better version.
William Dlls, the famous producer,
will exercise his art to the utmost to
make the effects at Multnomah Field
most striking. Certain it is that
nothing in the line of electrical effects
has ever been seen west of Chicago
that can equal the Portland production.
Full rehearsals started Monday and
will continue until the day of the per-
formanee. when they will end with
weird midnight dress rehearsal, with
every light and every effect working.
The show promises to be the greatest
thing ever seen i'm Portland,
