The Young People's Society of the First Baptist church are congratulat ing themselves In having secured Miss Benson, planste of Portland to ar range a program for them, to be giv. en at the church Friday eve. Jan. 18, Miss Benson has been fortunate in securing the co-operation of Mr. W, H. Boyer, director of the choir of the Taylor street M. E. church of Port land in rendering the carefully se lected numbers. ; Miss Benson is truly an artist at the piano, her skill in execution and rare interpretation of her favorite composers always winning the merit ed praise of her audiences. Mr. Boyer brings a quartet with him, consisting of the following well known singers: Miss Eula Bennet, so prano; Miss Jennie McConnel, con tralto; Mr. Chas. Cutter, baritone; Mr. W. H. Boyer; tenor. Miss Bennet has held the position of solo soprano at the Taylor street M. E. church and the Grace M. E. church, and during one winter sang with the Savage Grand Opera Co. She has a fine voice of great range and power, which together with a most attractive personality,- makes her one of the most popular, of . Portland's younger singers. Miss Jessie McConnel is a charming contralto who has during the last year done remarkably fine work on sever al opcaslons, notably In the rendering of Verdi's Requiem Mass, when she delighted her audience with the depth and richness of her voice. Mr. Chas . Cutter needs no intro duction to Oregon City music lovers, his romantic story being well known here. An Alaskan Indian, he was play ing the cornet in the band of the Chemawa school, when he first attract ed the attention of Mr. Boyer. This was five years ago, and now there is not a finer baritone singer in Portland. He expects soon to make his debut on the operatic stage, it being the opinion of competent judges that a great ca reer as a singer of grand opera awaits him. He will sing the famous Tor eador Song from Carmen, as well as other numbers. . . - Quartet work will be an especial feature of the evening. The quartet from "Rigoletto" will be sung, "When Song is Sweet," by San Soucl and selections from DeKoven's well known opera "Robin Hood." FIREMEN'S ELECTION COMING. Interest Has Centered In Candidates For Chief of Department. Firemen's election comes on Mon day, March t, the anniversary of in auguration day, and the laddies who fight gallantly through Bmoke and water are already commencing to talk of the candidates for chief of the fire departmen to succeed E. L. Mc Farland who has served the depart ment faithfully and well. Columbia Hook & Ladder company has already placed a man in the field in the per son of Del Hart, and Hill Hose Com pany No. 3 is contemplating the nom ination of "Billy" Wilson, who is one of the bravest of the fire fighters and was once an unsuccessful candidate for the position. Mr. Wilson's adher ents believe It is high time Hose Co. No. 3 obtained recognition. Fountain Hose Company has not yet made a nomination, bpt probably will, as it has been several years since this company was honored with the election of one of its members. Law rence Ruconich and Chris Hartman, both of whom have held the position, have been mentioned. Mr. Hartman received the nomination last year but McFarland carried off the toga. J. A. McGlashan is another member of the Fountains who is a good fireman that made an unsuccessful race two years ago against Frank McGinnls of the Hooks. The story is abroad that the Hook Ladder Company and the Cataract Hose Company have entered into an unholy alliance for the election of the Hook's candidate, but the firemen de ny the story. It is well known, how ever, that last year the Hook and Ladder boys stayed out of the race and .made the election of Chief Mc Farland possible, with the understand ing that no candidate would be put In the field this year by the company down by the woolen mills, between whose members, and the Fountains there is a sharp rivalry. True to this agreement the Cataract Hose Company has not placed a man in the contest, and its strength will do doubt be di vided. There is an assistant chief and three commisisoners to be elected this year, but it is not likely there will be a contest for these offices. The posi tion of Chief of the fire department pays a salary of $10 a month and to this there is unmeasured glory at tached. FROM THE ANTILLES.
