COFFEE You are both judpe and jury for Schilling's Best Vour pf.Ker rf luiti our tuoncf U ro !o'l AT THE PLAYHOUSES. The first of the, subscription concerts outlined for the coming season will be something of a novelty for music lov ers, and will almost approch grand opera, la that the , members of the quartet are all from the Metropolitan opera company of . New York, and their program will be arranged to re veal the finest talents of the singers as well as to present some of the great concerted numbers from famous op eras, says a Portland paper of the at traction coming to La Grande soon. The Heilig theater will house the usual brilliant audience always called forth by the splendid musical feasts annually offered here, and the season will formally open with the quartet of singers on Wednesday evening, Octo ber 7. The members of the quartet are Madame Jacoby; the fine contral to. All of the great roles that are suit ed to her trumpet-like sonorous voice are assigned to her and she always brings to her work a refinement of expression and artistic delicacy. Rap pold, the soprano, has a pure, tender and sympathetic voice and In many of the grand opera roles she frequently shares the first honors with Sembrlch. - Martin, the tenor, and Campanarl. tne baritone,-are too familiar to the patrons of music to need much in troduction, although Jhis Is their first blgour together. All the four are at liberty to make this tour only, because it was planned to take dace before opera rehearsals opened and only a few of the cities will be included in their four weeks' tour. The concert on October 7 at the He'illg theater is under the direction of Lois Steers Wynn Coman and Is th first of their winter, subscription series. Portland's prices follow: Lower floor, $4; balcony, first 4 rows, $3; balcony, next five rows, $2; balcony, last .. rows, $1.50; gallery, $1.50; un reserved, $1; boxes, $25. In La' Grande on October 6, the same group of stars will be seen and heard for $1.60 and $1.00. Excellent Stock Company. ; The Walters & Christ Stock com pany opened a week's stand before a limited-sized . house last evening, but that they will have more out tonight and during the remainder of their stay here, Is a foregone conclusion, for the troupe puts up the "real dope." "Dora Thorne" was ably pre sented last night under difficulties, but the absence of two of the regular actors was not noticed by. the audience. The company has three first-class actors and all of the characters are good, in fact, much better than usual ly comes over the road with the prices which this troupe maintains. 'To night's performance Is a repetition of last night's show. Miss Graham, the leading lady, is especially adapted for her part and her subordinates carry themselves' well. But honors are not all due the leading lady, for there are two male characters that come up to a high standard and another that touches the average. "Stephen Thorne" was played by a man very capable. Lord Earl" made a hit with the feminine portion of the audience with his "candy-kid" ways. The Wayward Daughter." "The Wayward Daughter" Is a head-liner of no small worth and the visitors to the Pastime theater last evening came away pleased with the feature film and the balance of the film attraction. Then, too, everybody liked the song features. To miss the Pastime this week Is to miss an at traction worth seeing. A True-to-Llfe Story. The film depicting the cruelty to sailors and the practice of shanghalng men Into the navy at the Sherwood, Is a "hummer" that Is true to life. It Is told In the film entitled "Life Is a Game of Curds." The "Boundary" Is also a feature film ranking high among the picture-stories that have come to the city of late, and that l saying much. The songs by Miss Green are excellent In nature and well ren dered. Vaudeville Artist.
