A com mittee from the Alblna Board of Trade called on Vice-President C. F. Swigert, of the Portland Consolidated Company, a few days ago, to ascertain what the company proposed doing regarding the firtension of tho Mississippi-Avenue branch through to a connection with the St Johns line, on Kllllngsworth avenue. He informed the committee that it de pends mainly on the action of the property-owners. Efforts to secure right of way for the extension have been held up so far. The committee was Informed that the extension of the branch would be made If the right of way Is secured, and that the company would pay half the cost of the ground needed. A mem ber of the committee says there is a choice of two ways, that would cost, re spectively, 5500 and 31100. He thought it probable that the extension would be made from Prescott street to Killings worth avenue, by way of Alblna avenue. It now rests with the property-owners what they will do In the matter. The local Board of Trade will work to get the extension, and hope for co-operation by tho people of North Alblna. Pleasant Event at Patton Hour.

Will Sing Some of the Mozart Songs for Which She Is So Famous. The GadskI song recital tonight will be notable not alone for the reappearance of this famous and justly celebrated woman, but it will give the people a. chance to hear some of the songs which are heard too seldom here, and which created' such a tremendous furore in other cities. There are some Franz numbers on the programme, as well as Schubert and Bee thoven. Of these composers and thslr works and of Mat. Gadski's rendition of them the San Francisco papers were Madame Gadski, Who Will Slnr at the First Baptist Chorea Tonight. pleased to express themselves as follows: "For the presentation of three Franz songs. San Franciscans are indebted to Mme. Gadski. The works of this com poser are too seldom seen, on concert pro grammes. Their lilting melodies, their depths of sentiment, their dramatic possi bilities, afford a singer of temperament such splendid opportunities that It is not easy to understand why they are not added to every public singer's repertoire. The audience would have Mme. Gadski repeat all the Franz numbers. Of the group she gave two of them over again. "Aus Mclnen Grosscn Schmcrzen.' 'Die Haide 1st Braun and Fuer Muslk were the three Franz songs. "Gadski's greatest adventure last night was Schubert's 'Erlkonlg, on which she brought to bear mystery as well as mclo dramalsms. The excitement was splen did; you were rushed on to the sequel; but there was never force without sub tlety. "Madame Gadski lacked or denied sub tlety only when she sang a more or less comic encore. Here she was most In genuously German. Tou had to see and hear for yourself: you could not Imagine a Wagner deml-goddess doing It. But it showed versatility and an appreciation of character. "It is this appreciation of character that has broadened Gadski. and although we hear her now only In concert, there is in her lightest effort a touch for the bet ter. "In the way of tone, too, appreciation and style have been improvers. Gadski's voice would seem with Its greater strength and. therefore, greater tender nessless Instrumental than before. The voice has taken on a quality tfiat clutches, a lyric sweetness with the dra matic. It laughs down the superstitious terrors of Wagner singing. When you hear Gadski sing Franz" 'Aus Mclnen Grosscn Schmerzen' and then sing It again because the audience all but shouts for a repetition, and remember that this voice has been raised on Brunhild as well, then you feel sorry for the slaves of their col oratura who deny tnemseives we pieas ures of motherhood and the table just to trill blrdily on a top note; who shorten the life ot their manager by a year every time that top note meets a fog or a rare bit and is sick."
