Greene. A large number of pilgrims within our gates seemed to enjoy The Chaperons" at the Marquam last night. A good smat tering of Portland people were also pres ent. The piece comes here for a week with a reputation. It was liberally applauded. The best number was "We're All Good Fellows, Boys," as sung by George Ly decker and the male chorus. The boys really looked very sorrowful as they sang It. but they needn't have. It was well done. The bright particular event to which lbcal theatergoers had been encouraged to look forward was "The Whole Dam Family" song, and it was consequently well received. Among the other songs which provod "hits" were "When I Sang My Low C," "The Little Girl Who Couldn't Say No." "Billy Is Very Good to Me," and "Sambo." There was considerable light and airy persiflage, which the funny men distribut ed amidst the laughing audience. The burlesque street-car ride given by "Phrosla." "Schnitzel" and "O'Shannes sy" in the first act was good fooling, and is important to the success of the show. The company Is a large one. and the costuming Is worthy a metropolitan pro duction. The public hero is hungry for musical shows, and "The Chaperons" will prob ably enjoy a prosperous run at the Mar quam. Owing to the hoavy demand for seats it has been decided to give a Wednesday matinee Want Vacant Streets Restored.

In the First Presby terian Church at 2 o'clock this afternoon, addresses will be delivered by Mrs. Brady, wife of Governor Brady, of Alaska; Cap tain Kllgore, of the United States rev enue cutter Grant: Mr. Kelly, Alaskan Commissioner to the Exposition, and George Stowdl.

The dance at Merrill's hall Saturday evening was given by the Portland Walters' Club, not the Walters' Union, as previously an nounced.

Men's League was the father of a most Interesting meeting at the parlors of the Portland Commercial Club last night. "State Advertising" was the subject of the meeting, which was at tended by a large number of the repre sentative business men at the city. The Ad. Men's League nad invited J. A. Fllcher, executive commissioner of the California exhibit, to make the address of the evening, which he, did in a most thor ough manner. For the past 12 years Mr. Fllcher has been either the president or a prominent member of the State Board of Trade of California, and Is therefore well able to speak upon the subject of state advertis ing, having been one of the leaders In the advertisement of California. According to the opinion of the speaker, the proper way to bring a state before the people Is by advertising the state and not the cities. People will bo drawn to the state, and will naturally come to the large cities. From these they wlll .be deflected to the localities best suited for their needs. During the course of the meeting R. M. Hall, one of the leading members of the league, spoke to the business men pres ent, in explanation of the objects of the organization and what its intentions were.

FRENZIED MUSIC WILL BE THE FEATURE OF ELLERY'S ITALIAN BAND YESTERDAY marked a change of bands at the Exposition, when the Hawaiian organization gave place to tho Ellery Royal Italian players. It was with regrets that Exposition patrons saw the Hawallans go, and it was with great expectations that the Incoming or ganization was welcomed. Ellery's is without doubt one of the fore most bands In America. It has a happy faculty of combining classical and popular music In Its programmes, catering to all classes. Thus It ought to become popular. If Its reception yesterday afternoon mav be taken as a basis of Judging, the new band will be the most popular of any that has yet filled amonth's engagement In daily concerts. The Ellery Band bears the distinction of being the first Italian musical organiza tion In America. Its organizer Is Chai ning Ellery. an American. Seven years ago he Introduced the Italian Band here Since then many have come. Ellery made a hit with his first Italian bond, let bv Sorrendlno. Later Ellery became man ager for Glannlnl. Five years aao that band was in Portland. He later formed a band of his own, and called Mlnolltl. from Italy, to ,serve as his leader. Later he secured the famous leader. Creatore. who organized a band of his own. and Chlkffarelii became leader of the Ellery "Captain Jinks of the Hers Marines" Captain Jinks Will R.

Old-fashioned dr.ess only 33 years old, and how the boys and girls laughed at the hoops, bustles and - funny-looking hats that we old fogies of 40 years old or so were taught to look on with venera tion! Verily, the world wags on a pace and vre wag too. The play is set in a merry key, and was undeniably written for the leading lady, Madame Trentonl. a grand opera singer, as she dominates it from be ginning to end. and in the hands of Lillian Lawrence the part is well oared for. Clyde Fitch is nothing unless he is odd. In "The Stubbornness of Ger aldlne" ho sketched the opening act on board a steamer at sea. In "Captain Jinks" Mr. Fitch as the scene of the first act. pictures the landing dock of a Cunard steamer in New York City, and the prima donna lands with her maid, three dogs and a monkey. It Is J a tnriuing moment and .Miss Lawrence makes tho most of It. Will R. Walling plays the part of Captain Jinks and makes a manly . w , v-irtu jji uic t,u'Kcuu9 trappings j of a forgotten militia company, and Is sincere and convincing. The most ' amusing bit is the rehearsal of the ' ballet, principally performed by auxll- . aries from Rose Etynge's school, and t Christy MacLean does good work mak ing her part n principal one for Its ex cellence. The Professor Bellartl. of "Jack" Sainpolls. is real acting so real that It looks like an everyday charac ter. Tho play .Is skillfully and lavish ly mounted, and is well worth a visit. It Is the Belasco offering for a week. J. M. Q. NEW VAUDEVILLE BILLS The Star. The bill which opened the week yester day is on the whole good. It has a weak spot or two. but most of the acts are up to the standard maintained by this pop ular theater. The Medallion Trio prcsont a remark ably good musical act which possesses the best features of the ordinary musical turn and a number that are distinctly new. Their act Is worth all the featur ing which the management has given 1L Two very clever youngsters are tho Gladstone children, who do acrobatic stunts that fairly capture the audiences. Rico and Edward contribute what they call "The Trick Billboard." Deets and Dunn In a talking specialty distribute a lot of gags that are funny and away from the stereotyped kind. Happy Allen, the eccentric dancer, holds up his end of the programme very well. Roy McBraln sings an Illustrated song of the usual variety after his usual manner, and the moving pictures afford the customary en tertainment. The Grand. The big act this week is that given by the Dictrlech Brothers Trio and consists of an amazing array of feats of strength. These three modern Sampsons are In every respect up to advance notices and do much to raise the general average of this week's show. They scored a de clslvehlt yesterday. Steve Jennings, who makes his bid for fame as "the man with the cane." Is a unique comedian, who sings in a sepulchural voice, which suggests George M. Cohan, and Juggles a cane with remarkable dexterity. Rome, Mayo and Juliet, known as "the har mony singers," do a burlesque minstrel act which is a decided Innovation and pleased yesterday's audiences very much. The Thompson Sisters have a character istic soubrette act which -is Just ordinary. Palmer and Robinson have a sketch called "The Sorcerer and the Soubrette," which proves quite entertaining. Fred Puring ton sings a new song with picture ac companiment. The grandiscope films are Interesting. "Woman Accidentally Poisoned. Mrs. Marie A. Laxkins, a dermatolo gist, having rooms in the Selllng-Hlrsch building, yesterday forenoon was the vic tim of accidental poisoning by drinking a solution of nitrate of silver, and was saved only by reason of immediate med ical aid and administration of antidotes. An early caller claimed her attention Just after having dissolved the liquid in some water in a glass which was left on the table of her private room. Shortly after ward she returned to breakfast and weak ened coffee served with the solution which she mistook for water. Thinking the pe culiar taste due to strength of the coffee Band. Two years ago SIg. Fcrrullo. oboe player and the present bandmaster, wiu selected. As the leader of the band Ferrullo nat urally should come in for some sort of attention. But in this case he is one of the strong parts of the show. He Is a pronounced exponent of what some cynic has termed frenzied music. Why, Creatore Is actually impassive alongside of Fer rullo. He appears to put his soul into the music and feel every note. His baton is here, there and everywhere, and those who do not appreciate Ferullo's intensity cannot, at least, foil to be amused by an acrobatic pantomime of rare quality. When the music calls for a crescendo movement Ferrullo appears to become as excited as a baseball fan In the ninth in ning, with an even score, two outs and three men on bases. A man must needs be a great gymnast and a great fencer to be the leader of an Italian band. Now the question very naturally arises as to the causes and effects of this In tensity. Ask some music-lovers and they will show the deepest contempt for any not possessing the finer sensibility neces sary to appreciate a leader of the Ferullo type. "The man loses himself In his music," muses this type of person. "He is a su perior soul. He Is in "a state of abnormal mental activity and can live only a few years because of the tremendous amount of energy consumed during band con- SHAW'S PURE BLUMAUER & HOCH lCeud 110 Fovrth StrMt .

Those of this mind are many, and they experience an eating pity for the misinformed ones who laugh at the really laughable antics of a leader who used to be able to sit calmly thorough a selection and play the oboe. Now. "whether the Intensity of Ferrullo and other Italian leaders Is real or simu lated Is not to be recorded here. Inasmuch as there Is no positive Information on the subject. Here, however, are the views of an Italian member of the Ellery Band, as expressed to the writer yesterday: Eet ees da one big bluff. I tell you, slgnor If de leader he jump a da round Ilka dat back In a Etally they no would permeet eet. But here In dees country it see ma t draw da crowd. Da people dcy like It. They thinks, it something great. So dey maka da leader jump like he have da fit. Bah! Eet maka me tired. Eet's the vat you call grandstand. Eet is da blga bluff. I do not like eet." Besides the leader, there are 55 members of the band, every one of them musicians of jl high order. Their initial programme at the Exposition yesterday was heard by a large gathering-, and encore after encore was insisted upon. Among the players is Slg. Seclmo, the greatest of clarlonetlsts. Sig. Seclmo appeared In solos last evening and was received with marked enthusi asm. The stay of the Ellery Band will undoubtedly prove one of the most pleas ant musical events of the entire Exposi tion. - - .
