Nance o'Neil at Orpheum.

Nance O'Neil is back at the Or pheum again in a great big Fox production. This emotional actress appeared last night in "A Wo- mans Past" an up-to-datc play with an up-to-date theme. There is splendid court room scene and the climax is as strong as could be dely- cd out of anyone's imagination.
 Miss O'Neil is surrounded by a strong company of performers. Fox eyidentally picked them for the parts and they all fit in admirably.
 "A Woman's Past" is metro politan story Of the ups and downs of the various classes. high and low society. and the chicanery Of both. All sets are well photo graphed. This play was great success on the stage but it is great CT on the screen. On account of the next big attraction coming, Ed na Mayo in Salvation Joan." Man ager Spickett will show "A Woman's Past" for the last time tonight. The Selig Tribune shown with this bill is good and of a most recent date.

There is the heck-town-b'g gosh. where the story starts, then Q switch to the tenement district of New York, then out to country estate where some of the best clas- sic dancing ever seen, outside of the real stage. is put right before ones eyes.

Second in Command"

Manager Monroe perhaps is jus- tiGed with presenting "The Second in Command" for three nights right in the middle of the week. This is worthy production, especially well acted, containing prominent people. scenes well taken and a splendid plot. Francis X. Bushman and Marguerite Snow are the prin- cipal characters. It is an English story and there is one of the best battle scenes on a small scale seen yet at the Coliseum. "The Sec ond in Command" is not essentially a military play although it hinges around the doings of several off, cors of His Majesty especially deal ing with the late Boer War in South Africa. Bushman proves that he is matinee .dol and Miss Snow is 8 most clever actress. This bill with the fashions, which shows some dainty bathing costumes and equally as dainty wearers, will be repeated tonight and tomorrow.

Bigbee Called Second Willie Keelcr


 Eastern baseball critics are dig ging up the dope on Carson Bigbee, Russ Halls "check-from-home." One reads:
 Along in 1914 a youngster named Bigbee was proving a sensation with the baseball team of the Univer- sity of Oregon and a crafty and far seeing Pittsburgh scout signed him and then somebody back in Pitts burgh released him without even so much as a trial. The youngster finished school and went out to make his way in baseball.
 Several weeks ago the Pitts burgh club paid $5,OOO to Tacoma for. his contract. He is the same Carson Bigbee released by Pitts burgh without looking over in 1914. The scouts who have watch ed his work say he is not second Ty Cobb. but rather he is second Willie Keeler.
 He is little fellow, lasts as q flash, who can hit. run and field, and unless the dope is all wrong he should be a star in the game for some time to come.
