Ow ing to an accident to the torpedo-boat-destroyer Goldsborough, her trial trip, which was to be held on Puget Sound this week, will have to be deferred for some time. She was making a standardizing run Sunday morning, and had covered more than half a measured knot at a 32 knot clip, when the rocker shaft in the engine-room broke, and It was of course necessary to shut down Immediately. The accident is one which could not be fore seen, and which is likely to occur to any engine of the same kind when running at a high speed. The boat has at tracted much attention during her stay on the Sound, and there is no doubt in the minds of naval constructors that, when the repairs to her shaft are made, she will make the required speed without trouble. Many of the crew have re turned to Portland, and will remain here until the repairs are completed. Clams Are Cheap. Razor clams are still being slaughtered with a recklessness which is likely to cause their extermina tion in a short time, although the clam hunters assert that the more clams dug the more there will be. A dozen boxes additional to his usual supply were re ceived by a dealer yesterday, and in ordeH to get rid of them he piled them in front of his place and labeled them "5 cents a dozen." Inside of an hour the whole dozen boxes were disposed of, and a lot of people had bought razor clams for less than they were ever sold for here before.

Harmony was pledged In the Seventh Ward Repub'ican Club last evening by one of its most Influential members, and warmly seconded by a large gathering of other members and friends. At the reg ular meeting of the club, held at Fulton, a proposition for uniting the two clubs now existing In the ward was presented. While this was not agreed to, T. C. Ma lone, leader In the ward, made a long talk, assuring all that the old organiza tion would do everything In its power for the ticket, and follow such lines of cam paign as were mapped out by the Central Committee. These statements were re ceived with applause, showing the extent of sympathy with every utterance by the speaker. The meeting was called to order by President H. M. Bush. Among the prom inent visitors from other Republican clubs wero Dr. Saylor and Messrs. Court ney, Prince, Bodman, MacNamee and B. F. JoneB. Following preliminaries, Mr. Malone, took the floor and spoke on the proposed consolidation with the club In the north end of the ward. He said the matter had been thoroughly discussed, and, while all were not of the opinion that consolidation was for the best Inter ests of both, It was not due to lack of harmony. The Republican ticket would be unanimously supported by the club first, last and all the time. However, he said, it was agreed! by the men consider ing tho matter that it was best for the old organization to continue doing busi ness at the old stand. All differences that may have arisen in the past over fac tional questions, Mr. Malone said, would be settled by the committeeman having such matters In charge, and by that ver dict all would abide. These assurances from one who has been the strongest fac tor In Seventh-ward politics, and the posi tive tone of conciliation and harmony In his talk, was a source of much gratifica tion to all concerned. This evening the other club will hold Its meeting, which will be attended by tho club in session last evening. These social visits are the first evidences of the united position of Republicans in the ward. INTEREST IS MAINTAINED. "Red, Waite and Bine" Is Meeting "With. Success. Another good house greeted the popular war drama, "Red. White and Blue," at the Metropolitan Theater last night, and the enthusiasm with which the play is received rather increases. This is prob ably due to the fact that the produc tion runs smoother and with more push and life than on the opening night, when the dialogue was new to most of the play era. Apart from tho Interest and enthus iasm that was created by the drama proper, the bright and original interpre tation given to a number of new coon songs by winsome Georgle Cooper met with much hearty applause. Tho war play will run the entire week, with Saturday and Sunday matinees. B SYMPHONY CONCERT.

Sfo.y of It Connection With Na poleon Other Features' of the Coming' Symphony Concert. The third concert of the Portland Symphony Orchestra will be given at the Marquam. tomorrow evening, March 1. The programme Is an especially attractive one, containing the work -of a composer new to Portland, viz: the dream pantomime music from "Hansel and Gretel," by E. Humperdlnck. Mr. Dom Zan will be the soloist of this occasion. The earnest efforts of this body of musi cians to stimulate the interest of the peo ple of Portland in the cultivation of a more general taste and appreciation of the higher forms of music, should win the cordial support of every one Interested in the Intellectual advancement of the city. The leading feature of this concert, how ever, will be the rendering of Beethoven's great symphony No. S, "Erolca," the four movements of which are as follows: L. Allegro con brio. 2. Marcla Funebre, adagio assai. 3. Scherzo and Trio, allegro vivace. 4. Finale, allegro molto. Beethoven first projected the third symphony in 1802, and finished It in 1804. "Eroica" Is likely to mislead the hearer if he supposes the music to be of a mar tial character, says George Upton, and therefore we add the complete translation of the title, "Heroic symphony, composed to celebrate the memory of a great man," namely, the hero in Its widest sense. The first manuscript copy, however, boro the following Inscription: "Sinfonia Grande, Napoleon Buonaparte, 1804 In August; del Segr. Louis .von Beethoven, Sinfonia 3, Op. 55." His Idol Shattered. It is known that Beethoven watched with deep Interest the great Revolution In France. One man attracted his atten tion and kindled his enthusiasm. Bona parte had appeared like a sun above the sea of confusion and mediocrity, ris ing rapidly but steadily until it seemed he would be the foremost hero of the re public. For Beethoven the 18th Brumaire had no forebodings of an 18th Mai. And when he first heard of the "Vive l'Em pereur," he took the score of his "Erolca," tore the title page Into shreds, and threw It on the floor. His idol was shattered. The copy that had been prepared for the French legation at Vienna was withdrawn and the symphony was finally published In memory of "Un Granc. Uomo." Such, in brief, are the facts relating to its origin. As biographical data, they will be received with the Interest usually attached to such Information, but In their bearing on the composition they become of the great est Interest and importance. Had Beethoven written the first two move ments only, and called the work "Na poleon, a Symphonic Poem." a running text could easily have been supplied, and, although there might be different versions, the fundamental Idea would have been the same In all. But he was still In the bondage of the symphonic form as It then existed, or at any rate chose to adhere to the four classical movements, thereby sorely puzzling the critics who were to dissect his work and explain to the ad miring listener the Intention and meaning of every phrase, for that he had a decided meaning and purpose In writing this work we may well believe. The "Erolca" was not thrown off In 10 days or 10 months. Beethoven had for years been gathering the material and crystallizing the dif ferent thoughts which go to make Up this mighty drama, and when he called tho symphony "Napoleon Bonaparte," we arc bound to believe that he In his way had sung tho paean of thohero, as he then sup posed him to be. Hero of the Piny. Admitting In the first movement the strife, the battle, whether of warring races or of one man fighting against fate and fortune, and in the "Marcla Funebre," the grandest dirge ever sung, whom do we follow to the grave amid these solemn sounds the hero of the play, Napoleon? Then what of the third and fourth movements? The biography ends with the grave, and the character of the Scherzo and Finale will not admit the explanation of a resume or commentary on the life Just closed. Marx conceives that the symphony is a battle piece. In the Scherzo he sees the busy life of the camp the day after the strife; In the Finale the Joys and festivities of peace. Wagner finds no military hero but merely "a great man," whose qual ities are described in the text. Over powering force leading to a tragic result characterizing the first two movements. In the Scherzo all Is serene, in the Finale the "Grand Uomo" Is harmoniously de veloped, freed from passion, and con quered by the power of love. Berlioz com pares the Scherzo to the solemn rites which the warriors of the Illiad celebrated at the grave of tholr leader, continued in the Finale, and closing with a hymn of victory, but every hearer may exercise his Ingenuity and fancy upon the prob lems, and most will probably arrive at tho conclusion that the music of these two movements was written for music's sake, rather than to portray any phase of a hero's career. The first movement, Al legro Con Brio, in E flat, time, has a number of themes highly characteristic of Beethoven's power In terse and precise expression of musical Ideas. The main theme Is given out at once by the 'cellos In a quiet manner, but we soon encoun ter the syncopations which play so decided a part In this great picture of strife. A tender ep'sode for the winds repeated by the strings Interrupts the turmoil, followed by a rapid crescendo leading again to the clashing syncopations.

Tones of Melancholy. The adagio assai appeals more directly to the listener with its sad melody in C minor, and its heartfelt tones of melan choly. This solemn dirge Is followed by the Scherzo Allegro Vivace. The contrast in the heading of the two movements would suggest startling incongruities in the music; but it is one of the greatest achievements of Beethoven's genius that he surmounts the difficulty in a way that does not admit of an Idea of unfitness. The Scherzo begins with a pianissimo staccato, which has something mysteri ous in its character. It is not until the middle that It breaks forth with a sud den fortissimo, and then not without a reminiscence of the syncopations of the first Allegro. The Trio, with its horn pass age, fii ally dispels the gloomy character of all that precedes, and, calls up more peaceful visions. The last movement, Al legro Molto, begins with a dominant sev enth chord in the form of a cadenza, af ter which the theme enters pizzicato. This melody !? -worked up in the form of vari ations often interrupted by a hold until a new theme appears, happier and brighter, dominating the last part of the movement. It gives room to severe treat ment of the first theme in strict counter point, only to reappear in a Poco Andante of some length, which without warning breaks Into the final Presto Fortissimo that brings the work to a close.

"CLEOPATRA" AT MATINEE Splendid Production nt the MarornRm This Afternoon. Blancho "Walsh and Melbourne Mac Dowell and their excellent company will produce Sardou's greatest play, "Cleo patra," in which they scored such signal successes Monday and last night, again at the Marquam this afternoon. This will give the public another opportunity to see Miss Walsh in her magnificent role. In this part she is queenly, stately, ten der and terrible In her jealous rage. Scarcely less powerful is Mr. MacDow ell's presentation of the character of Marc Antony. In the heavier scenes he rises to great dramatic height, and In the love passages with Cleopatra he Is the em bodiment of manliness and tenderness. One of the strong points of tho production is the costumes. These are beautiful, and the surroundings are In keeping with the time and place, and the scene in the Tem ple of Isis is a typical Egyptian produc tion. The storm scene, In the fifth act, is one of the finest spectacular exhibi tions on the modern stage. Tonight "La Tosca" will be given. In this play, as In the other, there are lov ers, and in each the woman, through the intensity of her love and the frailty" of her reason, gives over her lover to dis aster and death, and In this tragedy, too, the woman gladly dies beside the body EDISON AND TALKING MACHINES Are the best because they are better and more carefully made, running more smoothly, and thereby reproduc ing more accurately.
