SOCIETT. Evening Muxlrale. One of the moat delightful musi cal es given this season was rendered last evening In the club parlors by' the members of the Lyle Taesday Musl cale. The program was arranged by and given under the direction of Mes dames A. L. Richardson and O. E. Sllverthom. Regardless of the In clemency' of the elements, the capacity of the parlors was severely taxed to accommodate the large number of ap preciative music lovers who braved the annoyance of the storm to listen to the- promised program.

The opening number, by the Mandolin club, "Re membrances of Mexico," was ar ranged for the occasion by C. Reba giiatl, the noted Portland musician, and was heartily encored, as was also all the succeeding numbers. The ulk, "Music in the Philippines," by George Cochran, was a real treat, and one which will be long remembered by all who heard it, as not only high ly entertaining, but Instructive. Spe cial mention should also be made of the ladles' chorus. The finished manner in which they rendered the "Daffodils," by King Hall, was not only a credit to the singers, but also to their instructress, Mrs. Silver thorn. At the CI cover Home. Mrs. Geo. Cleaver entertained a number of ladies yesterday afternoon at her home, in honor of Mrs. Clea ver, sr., who is spending the winter here.
