IX BIG GRAND OPERA COMPANY TO GOME EXECUTIVE HEAD OP CHICAGO GRAND OPEBA COMPANY, WHICH PLAYS IN PORTLAND MARCH 31 AND APRIL 1-2. J THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAJJ", PORTLAND, MARCH 2, 1913. Chicago Artists to Give Four Performances in Portland at Orpheum Theater. 300 PERSONS ARE IN CAST World's Famous Organization Will Make Initial Appearance in This CItjr on March 31 and Will Conclude on April 2. FACTS ABO IT GKAKO OPERA SEASOX. The world famous Chicago Grand Opera Company will be at the Or pheum Theater for three nighta and one matinee, beginning at 8 o'clock Monday. March 81. There are 300 In the company. In cluding such great stars as Lulsa Tettrazzlnl. Mary Garden and Cleo fonte Campaninl. It costs $34,000 to produce the four operas In Portland, the guaran tors being Portland men. The Immense company travels In tbreo special, magnificent trains, carrying scenery for each opera. Prices for the operas will range from $2 to 7 a seat. Andreas Dipple Is the executive head of the organization. There are SO in the orchestra, 65 In the chorus and 28 In the ballet. It will be the first time that Port land has had grand opera on such a magnificent scale, this being the full strength of the - wonderful or ganization now en tour. That Portland and Oregon people may have the opportunity to enjoy real grand opera on a magnificent scale, with nothing; left out, either in num bers or quality of the cast, there has been posted a guarantee of $34,000 by men of this city to bring the Chicago Grand Opera Company to the Orpheum Theater for four performances, begin nlng with Monday night, March 31, and ending Wednesday night. April 2. This great and world-famous organ ization, including a number of stars whose names are known to every one. will be brought to Portland through the efforts of Lois Steers-Wynn Coman. of this city, backed by Portland men who -want to see the people of Oregon have the opportunitw of feasting on real grand opera with nothing lacking. Whether the venture will be a pay ing one, is problematical, although Miss Steers declares It as her belief that It will be, but it matters not the Chicago Brand Opera Company will be here, 300 strong for the four productions. Interest Is Aroused. - With thn bara rumor that the blcr or ganixatlon was to be here, letters have been pouring Into the office of Miss Steers from every section of the state. In fact, she has been much surprised to receive Inquiries from numerous out of-the-way places, from all classes of people who are eager to hear this com pany when It comes to Portland. "It will be the first time that we have ever had grand opera on such a mag nlflcent scale," said Miss Steers, "and It is evident even at this early date that it Is going to be a success in every way. It means much to Portland to have this - organization come here in Its full strength. If it is patronized as I feel certain it will be, I believe It will be an annual event." The Chicago Grand Opera Company is backed by Chicago people in part and in part by some of the men who stand financially behind the Metropolitan Op era Company, of New York. Harold F. MeCorrnick is president; Otto H. Kahn and Charles G. Dawes are vice-presi dents; Charles L. Hutchinson is treas urer and F. H. Chandler is secretary of the organization. Dlppel la In Charge. Andreas Dlppel, formerly general manager of the Metropolitan Opera Company, is general manager. He is recognized as one of the most wonder ful executives in the world and gives attention to the minutest detail! throughout the trip. 'as well as when the company is at home. Cleofonte Campaninl. world-famed in the grand opera world, is general musical direc tor, while Bernhard Ulrich is business manager. It is difficult to comprehend the mag nitude of the organization, but some idea may be had when it is known that there are 300 members in the company, among which WMiuMamoiis stars as Mary Garden, Luisa Tettrazzlnl and Campaninl. For the first time the whole organiza tion is to be brought to Portland, where it will render various operas at the Orpheum Theater. The Immense ag gregation Is transported on this Pacific Coast journey by three first-class spe cial trains, composed of every piece of equipment known to the railroad world for comfort and convenience. Stay la Saa Francisco Long. The tour has already started and the company will reacn San Francisco, the next stop from Portland, during March, where S3 performances will be given. While 23 performances will be given in San Francisco, and but four in Port land, the prices here will be the same as In San Francisco. The prices will range from 33 to 37 for each performance. Organization of the company is com plete in every detail, a complete staff of officers caring for all the features connected with the tour. The scenery for the first opera staged in a city is promptly dispatched to the next stop ping place, where it is in position when the company arrives. If the company gives "Thais" at the first performance In San Francisco, the special settings for that opera will first be put uu the train and forwarded to Portland. It has not as yet been definitely de rided what operas will be played in Portland, but announcement as to this feature will soon be made. The company will play but two cities In the Northwest. Portland and Seattle, the week being divided between them, the cost to each city being 334.000. ' While in Portland the members of the great company will have apart ments at the various hotels, as they live on the special trains only when en route from city to city. Vice Clique Member Convicted. A fourth member of the vice clique was convicted In Circuit Court yester day, when a 'Jury in Judge Davis' de partment returned a verdict of guilty against Herbert King, who was ar rested and brought back from Seattle a few months ago. Time for passing sentence was not fixed. The other three Dr. Harry A. Start, E. E. Wedemeyer and E. S. J. McAllister were sentenced from one to 'live years in the peniten tiary, but all are at liberty on appeal bonds. So far the state has scored convictions in every one of these cases. L ANDREAS G.

Could you do a better act than to send this ! notice to some poor suxurar ox Jbcsemar What Lincoln Thought After the death of Ann Rutledge, every time it would rain, blow or snow, Abraham Lincoln would walk the floor and say: , , "I can't bear to think of Ann out there in this storm and rain without any shelter, her grave filling with water," etc. ' If a man as big as Lincoln, whose mind and heart were so much in accord with the sufferings of humanity, whose sympathy reached all limits and endured all things for the good of his countrymen, whose love of country and home made him a martyr of martyrs if he could not endure the thought of one he dearly loved, being buried in a common grave, exposed to the winds, the rains -and the snows, if Abraham Lincoln, not enthusiastically religious, yet in no sense a materialist, must walk the floor at the thought of a loved ono laid away in a hole in the earth, liow must the same thought come home to the thousands of men and women who believe with Lincoln, or who would believe with him on matters of this kind? . Truly Lincoln did so believe. He so expressed himself, and the bigger the man, the larger the experience, the kindlier the heart, the more certain it is that the grave, and like wise cremation, will be, to him the source of regret, distress and intense grief, when even necessity: provides .no other means of disposing of the. dead. Nothing can be truer, no matter how men may think or talk about human burial, and nothing could be more certain than that the burial of Ann Rutledge in the earth was the cause of a great grief to the martyred President Is there any question as to whether Lincoln would have tolerated cremation, endured earth burial, or indorsed and secured Mausoleum interment for Ann Rutledge, and for the members of his own family, had he not won the distinction which made it a pleasure for his own state, to provide tombs for themt Could Lincoln, after all, have been so different from other men in this respect? Standing in the presence of such an affliction as did he, brings forcibly to mind what one should do to be prepared for the uncertainties of life, and that means a wise provision on the part of every head of a family when he least needs a place for interment, in order that it may, be ready when anyone dependent upon him may most iieed it. No tombs will be provided for those who do not subesribe for them in Riverview Abbey. That means, no one can be sure of space in this great Mausoleum unless they; ber of addresses touching: upon the tim ber industry, forest service and fire protection, were made. 21 CHILDRENAMONG HEIRS Bond of $9,ftO'0,0(M Exacted of Ad ministrator of Eccles Estate.

Every Child Should Be Given This Tonic When children have . no appetite; when they are continually peevish and irritable; when they are restless in their sleep, it is almost a certain indl cation that their digestive organs are. troubled with worms or other parasites. This is a very common aliment and easily remedied. Physicians will tell you that nearly every child is so trou bled at some time, and, in fact, many adults suffer in the same way. Among adults this trouble is invariably re ferred to as indigestion, when in real ity it Is due to a small parasite which infests the intestinal tract. For children, Jayne's Tonic Vermi fuge is unsurpassed, as it is not only destructive to these parasites, but com pletely removes the nests in which their young are deposited. Seldom does it purge, and the improvement In the health of the child will be the first and best Indication of the beneficial re sults of the. medicine. Not only will the Vermifuge destroy all the parasites, but its wonderful tonic effects will re store the digestion which has been im paired.

FROM THE PINE WOODS HYOMEI'S Aromatic Air it Guaranteed to Relieve Catarrh or Cost Nothing HYOMEI'is nature's true remedy for catarrh. There Is no stomach dosing in using HTOMEI, no more than there is when - you go to the mountains or the sea-shore to get relief from lung troubles. When using the HTOMEI treatment. the air you breathe is like that on the mountains high above sea level where the pine woods fill the air with aro matic healing that gives health and strength to those suffering from dis eases of the respiratory organs.

At the first symp tom of catarrhal trouble, . such as sniffling and hawking, use HYOMEI and see how quickly you get relief.

SLEEP DISTURBING BLADDER WEAKNESS BACKACHE-RHEUMATISM, QUICKLY VANISH Even Most Chronic Sufferers Find Relief After a Tew Doses Are Taken. Backache, urinary disorders and rheumatism are caused from weak, in active kidneys, which fall to filter out the impurities and keep the blood pure. and the only way on" earth to perma nently and positively cure such troubles is to remove the cause. The new discovery, Croxone, cures such . conditions because it reaches the very- roots of the disease. It soaks right into the stopped up. Inactive kid neys, through the walls and linings; cleans out the little filtering cells and glands; neutralizes and- dissolves the poisonous uric- acid substances that lodge in the joints and muscles to scratch and irritate and cause rheuma tism; it neutralizes the urine so it no longer Irritates the tender membranes of the bladder, and cleans out and strengthens the stopped up, lifeless (Copyrighted 1013.) in Utah. The administrator furnished a cash bond of Jl.000.000, while the estate Itself was accepted as security for the remainder. D. H. Armstrong, Busi ness Agent of Brotherhood of Electrical Workers for three years, taken ill on big job, takes Duffy's on doc tor's advice and recovers. "I have used Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey for the past 14 years as a stimulant and tonic. I was first advised to take it by my family physician, recovering from pneu monia, contracted when in charge of the electrical construction work of the Mutual Life Co. 'a building, N. Y. City. For the three years I was Business Agent for the Inter national Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, No. 3, N. Y. City,' I had no colds, which I had formerly coughs, colds, bronchitis, grip, pneu kidneys so they filter and sift all the poisons from the blood, and drive it out of the system. So sure, so positive, so quick and lasting are the results obtained from the use of Croxone, that three doses a day for a few days are often all that is required to cure the worst case of backache, regulate the most annoying bladder disorders, and overcome the numerous other similar conditions. It is the most wonderful prepara tion ever made for the purpose. It is entirely different from all other reme dies. There is nothing else on earth to compare with It. It is so prepared that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without re sults. You can obtain an original package of Croxone at trifling cost from any first-class drug store. All druggists are authorised to personally return the purchase price if Croxone fails to give desired results, regardless of how old you are, how long you have suf fered, or what else has failed to cure you.
