White Temple Officers to Meet.
The prudential committee and officers
of the r"irst Baptist Church will meet
tonlKht to discuss the suRgestlon of the
V. I. A. chapter that a stained-glass win
dow be purchased to take the place of one
of the larpe windows of plain glass now
in the auditorium. The V. I. A. is a band
of lT-) youns women from 16 to 25 years
of ape. The committee will also discuss
ihe question of engasing a minister to
act durlnpr Dr. Brougher's trip to the Kast
and also during his vacation next August.
The question of securing an associate
pastor may come up. Dr. Brougher is
in receipt of a communication from Tom
Richardson, of the Commercial Club, In
which Mr. Richardson urges the Issuing
of a small annual setting forth the
different phases of the work of the
Haptist church, illustrated with views of
the White Temple, this to be distributed
at conventions and other gatherings In
this city. Mr. Richardson also wants
Inducements put forth for the delegates
to the International Baptist Young Peo
ple's Union, which Is to be held In Spo
kane next July, to come to Portland.
These matters will also be considered by
the Piudential committee this evening, at
which It is desired to have a full attend
ance. Settles on Church Plans. At a meet
ing of the building association of the St.
Francis Church, East Eleventh and East
Oak streets. Sunday Rfternoon. the main
features of the plans for the proposed new
church were settled. The building will
occupy the half block on East Pine, be'
tween East Eleventh and Twelfth, and
will face on East Twelfth street. After
much discussion it was decided to favor
an ample hall In the basement for use
of the parish. This arrangement will
permit the removal of the present frame
hall which stands on the corner of East
Twelfth and Pine streets, and the church
which stands on the corner of East
Oak and Eleventh streets, leaving three
fourths of the block for the new edifice
and the home of the priest, which will
probably be moved to the corner now oc
cupied by the present church. Rev. J. H.
Black, the pastor, during his recent trip
to Rome, gathered some suggestions rel
ative to church construction and decora
tions, and Is assisting Architect Otto
Kleemann in the preparation of the plans
for the building. It will be of a cathe
dral design.
East Sipb Ijrrart Site. There will be
no trouble about securing a branch li
brary for the East Side If a quarter
block can be secured for the purpose.
The matter will probably be reported
on the meeting of the East Side Im
provement Association tonight. Two lo
cations are under consideration. One is
the quarter on the corner of East Elev
enth and East Alder streets, and the
other Is on Belmont and Eleventh, owned
by the Hawthorne estate. Either would
be near enough to the High School house,
and also convenient to the business dis
trict. If a location can be secured, the
extension committee of the Portland li
brary gives assurance that a suitable
building will be erected and a well select
ed library installed. On what conditions
a quarter can be secured will be ntade
known in the forthcoming report by Jo
seph Buchtel, to -whom the matter was
referred.
Filling Belmont Street. Belmont
street Is being filled by private contract
between Union avenue and East Second
street. Work Is rapidly being completed
that will furnish a solid embankment be
tween East Water street and Union ave
nue. Across the ravine between East
Ninth and Tenth streets, part of the
embankment has been completed, also by
private contract. The Improvement of
Belmont street from East Water to Sun
nyslde Is slowly but surely being worked
out. It is expected ttiat the section east
from East Tenth to Sunnyside will be im
proved with hard pavement. From Sun
nyside to Mount Tabor the widening of
the street has been accomplished, and It
will be Improved probably with crushed
rock to West avenue this year, and later
on to the top of Mount Tabor. Steps
have been taken to continue the street
from West avenue to the summit.
Vatf.r Board Postpones Meeting.
The meeting of the Water Board, which
was to have been held yesterday after
noon, was postponed, as several of the
members were unable to attend. The
hoard was to have considered the pro
posal of J. M. Arthur to sell the water
plant at Mount Tabor for $25,000. This
Is the price which the Board offered, but
Mr. Arthur in his acceptance reserved
several items that were Included by the
Board in Its estimate. Another special
meeting will probably be called for some
day this week.
Rcrber Boots Savb Itfe. J. Kunz.
a route agent for The Oregonlan. while
delivering papers last Sunday morning,
came In contact with a live wire and
probably owes his life to a pair of rub
ber boots he wore. The horse on which
he was riding stepped on the wire and
fell dead. Mr. Kunz came in contact
with the wire but the rubber boots he
was wearing were non-conductors, and
he was not injured. The horse- 'killed
was valued at $150 and was considered
a fine animal.
TELtjt How to Illuminate. Albert J.
Marshall, an Illuminating engineer from
New York, will give a free lecture on
"Illuminating" tomorrow night. In
Knights of Pythias hall. Eleventh and
Alder streets. The lecture will set forth

way, Light & Power Company.

a patient at St. Vincent's Hospital, who

Dr. Driver Speaks. Rev. I. D. Driver,
the pioneer Methodist minister, began
a series of sermons and lectures last
night at Trinity M. B. Church, on East
Tenth and Grant streets, which will be
continued over Sunday, and perhaps long
er. The title of the sermon last night
was "Paul pf Athens." Dr. Driver is
nearly 83 years old, and has been lectur
ing almost every night during the Win
ter, but He spoke with all his old-time
vigor. He drew a vivid picture of the
responsibilities of men and women to
God., At the conclusion of the sermon
Rev. Mr. Smith, the pastor, held a brief
evangelistic service, during which several
went to the altar. Dr. Driver will speak
every night' during the week, and all are
invited to attend. Dr. Driver is having a
second edition of his lectures on biblical
subjects published, including answers he
has given to questions sent him from all
portions of the world. During the series
of sermons this week he will answer any
question on the Bible that may be asked
him.
Remodel East Side Buildings. Seve
ral of the large buildings near the east
end of the Burnside street are to be re
modeled to meet the increased demand
for rooms. Occupants of the two upper
floors of the Marshal building, on Grand
avenue and Bast Burnside street, have
been notified to move, as the owner has
decided to remodel it throughout, chang
ing it into suits of three rooms. On
Union avenue, J. A. Reed has leased the
Harrington building. He has occupied
two of the lower rooms and will fit up the
remainder as a shoe factory. The new
owner of the Lambert will remodel that
structure. W. H. McMonies & Company
have remodeled the old Ross building
throughout. There is a great demand for
rooms or houses all over the East Side,
but real estate agents say that they have
few houses for rent.

neral of Eryeb Vachero. a native of Wis
consin, was held from St. Mary's Church

Recital by Miss Alice
Robbins Cole
By Nancy Lee.
AFTER an absence of several years,
Miss Alice Robbins Cole, the noted
Boston contrSlto, was tendered a most
cordial welcome at the 6cottish Rite
Cathedral concert, last night, when she
appeared in a varied and interesting pro
gramme. Miss Cole at one time resided in Port
land, where she has a host of friends. In
the interim she has won laurels in the
Eastern cities, where she has sung with
the Kneisel Quartet, and has had ' the
unusual distinction of appearing on two
occasions as soloist with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra. Her studies in
Europe have been with the late Fidele
Koenig. of Paris, and George Henschel.
of London.
The deep warm tones of Miss Cole's
voice, the poetic taste in phrasing and
shading, and her splendid enunciation,
show, not alone intelligence and tempera
ment, but careful analysis of detail and
the art of differentiating the contents of
each song.
The two stage settings, a treasure
chamber and a cathedral interior, were
both artistic and original as a prelude
for the recital, Morris B. Wells at the
Aeolian gave the "'William Tell" over
ture and Kamennoi Ostroro.
Dubois' Offertoire in D, and "Berceuse,"
from Jocelyn. were the organ selections
given by 'Ralph W. Hoyt, who plays with
feeling and skillful registration.
Showing Miss Cole's versatility were
the German, Irish, Scottish, English and
French classics, which composed her
meritorious repertoire. ,

................
IT seems that at last we have a light
musical organization in this country
worthy to succeed th'e dear old Boston
ians of blessed memory, and it bears the
name of Augustin Daly, who, though
long since dead, in a posthumous capacity
is still a factor in things of the stage.
The Daly company on its first tour of
the West reached Portland yesterday,
and sang "The Cingallee" at the Heilig
last night.
Genuine comic opera has come almost
to be a lost art. but we stllr have It In
"The Clngalee." which, in spite of some
innovations, adheres closely to the best
traditions. It is English, which Is great
ly in its favor. American composers have
become too prosperous and lazy to work,
or possibly find it more profitable to write
vaudeville songs. At all events the palmy
days of made-at-home comic opera are
Irretrievably gone and it Is necessary to
go to London for goods In that line.
"The Clngalee" is a musical festival.
There isn't a poor number In the score
and there are several real gems. From
overture to finale there are 22 songs,
every one worth a round of applause.
Perhaps Miss Finlay'e solo. "Sloe Eyes,"
in the first, and her duet, "My- Love, My
Life." with Melville Stewart in the sec
cond act. might be singled out as the
most "taking."
Hallyn Mostyn's topical song, "There
Isn't Much More to Say." and the
"monkey" songv and dance by Sam Col
lins and Viola Kellogg were particular
hits.
The scene of "The Clngalee" Is Ceylon,
the first act on a tea plantation and the
second at a native palace. The atmos
phere is a slight departure, from the con
ventional, but the lines on which the
story is worked out are not different from
many other musical shows which bear
the London hallmark.
The bright particular star of last night's
performance was Genevieve Finlay, a
contralto whose voice is of rare quality
and whose personality should be worth
a fortune on anybody's stage. She sings
the principal feminine role, Xanoya, and
a more fascinating little Cingalese girl
one could not hope to meet in a tour
round the world.
Melville Stewart, who needs no words
of my praise, as the lovelorn tea-planter,
sings so well that It's small wonder he Is
the same Idol of the musically inclined
ladies that- he has been for more years
than you'd think from his youthful ap
pearance. Hallyn Mostyn. who has been
here before, has the pompous basso -role,
which has been his lot ever since he outl
grew James J. Jeffries in stature. It's
a Joy to listen to his organ-like tones,
even in speech, but when he sings there's
nothing to do but pass up the hyacinths.
And then there's Sam Collins, whose
rich Colorado-Maduro soprano was' last
heard here in "The Silver Slipper." Col
lins has. never gotten far away from the
slap-stick, but he's usually a prolonged
scream of laughter, just the same. He
can't sing any more than a slot-machine
Is capable of Interpreting Chopin, but it
Isn't up to him to sing. He turns flip
flops, grimaces and mangled conversation
as E. Z. Breeze, the shyster lawyer and
bogus prince, in "The Cingalee" as ef
fectively as In every other piece he has
been identified with.
Viola Kellogg Is a fetching ingenue who
sings sweetly and there are a number of
others among the principals who belong
to the choral society. Harold Vizard, the
third comedian, overlooked nothing that
came his way and his burlesque serpen
tine dance alone Is sufficient to keep him
in the cast.
The best singing chorus of the season
deserves a large share of the credit, while
the scarf dRiice by Misses Faust and
Fisher is an animated poeml
The gorgeous settings are altogether
too big for the pitiably cramped Heilig
stage and lose much of their effectiveness
by being simply piled in. On an adequate
stage they must be splendid. The cos
tumes of the principals are everything
that could be asked, but the chorus has
been neglected in this respect.
"The Cingalee" will be repeated to
night. Tomorrow and Thursday nights
"A Country Girl" will be sung. Tou are
safe In recommending the Daly company
to your friends.
At the Stock Theaters
Melodrama at the Star.
UTHE LITTLE CHURCH AROUND
I THE CORNER,"' a play well
known to' all lovers of melodrama,
was presented by the Allen stock com
pany t the Star theater last night.
The plot is known to' nearly every
theatergoer, and those who have seen
it and know the story need not be told
that it Is one of the truest and most
pathetic of all melodramas. In it
are portrayed some of the real char
acters of everyday life the drunkard,
who would rather have his liquor thaq
his family or home, the dishonest law
yer, who because of his clandestine
love breaks up a home. On Marie
Thompson, as Agnes Grey, falls the
heaviest task. Sue performs it well,
and very little criticism can be passed
on . her acting. Her character and
makeup are fine.
Taylor Bennett, as usual, scored a
great success, and as "heavy" carried
oft the principal honors of the even
ing. He was cast as Phil Vinton, rich
attorney and man-about-town, who
sacrifices the happiness of a home be
cause of his lov for another man's
wife. Forrest Seabury does well as
Barney O'Toole, and is as natural a
stage Irishman as coulil be imagined.
Ralph Belmont as Harry Grey, the
drunken husband of Agnes, makes
one of the greatest hits, and this
young man is certainly one of the best
members of the company.
"Struck Oil" at the Lyric.
ffO TRUCK OIL" which the Lyric
O Stock Company put on yesterday
for a week's run, sounds like a farce
comedy of the lightest order but it is
something much better. The name
adopted by the author of the piece was
a bad selection, for his play is a military
comedy drama with a splendid vein of
romance and adventure running through
it, keeping the audience in a pleasantly
expectant frame of mind during its
entire three acts. While the comedy
element predominates the story is never
lost sight of. The scenic requirements 1
are considerable and the Lyric manage- !
ment has been careful that the details of J
stage setting were carefully attended to.
This is Herbert Ashton's last wee'k as
stage director, as he and Mrs. Ashton
will leave shortly for Australia, and both
he and his wife (Lily Branscombe) seem
determined to do their very best by way
of farewell. The former as John Stofel,
and the latter in the role of "Lizzie,"
his daughter, are the ruling spirits of the
performance. Miss Howard is not in the
cast this week, as she Is taking a well
earned rest, but the remaining members
of the company all appear In congenial
parts.
Frank Fanning'g Sergent Flynn, who
afterwards becomes a staid and dignified
judge, is at his best, while Charles Con
ners is capital as Corporal Sharp. Little
Master Ashton. as the precocious young
ster, gives promise of becoming a full
fledged actor and plays his part cleverly.
The other- members of the company give
a good account of themselves.
At the Vaudeville Theaters
Grand.
THE MOST Interesting number on the
Grand's list of attractions for the
current week, although it has not been
widely exploited, is the act of Herbert
De Veau. the comedian cartoonist. De
Veau possesses much skill as a lightning
sketch artist, and his unique methods of
extracting JmroOr from his work stamp
him as a performer of more than or
dinary originality.
The team which is given the feature
position on the bill. Lizzie Evans and
Jefferson Lloyd, ' give a rather taking
little 15-minute sketch which they call,
The Old Love." The 'Btory is that of
a divorced couple who meet by chance
after long separation and become recon
ciled. The little comedy does not call for
any Belasco effects nor Henry Milleresque
acting, but it is an entertaining skit, and
serves all the purposes for which it is
Intended. Mudge and Morton, in their
musical and singing act, contribute large
ly to the success of the show.
Harold Hoff, by way of variety, sings
an illustrated coon-song, "If the Man in
the Moon Were a Coon." It is an agree
able innovation. La Adelia, a danseuse
and expert costume changer, makes a hit.
Pantages.
MANAGER JOHNSON, of Pantages
Theater, is lucky this week, hav
ing secured one of the best bills that
has been presented in any vaudeville
house in a long time. The first honors
fall to the Imperial Suglmoto troupe,
seven marvelous Japanese acrobats.
Some seemingly Impossible feats are
performed by these little brown me
and women, who defy all the laws of
gravity, and have no regard for the.
perilous positions in which they place
themselves. They are as good a troupe
of acrobats as has been seen in Port
land for a long time, and deserve all
the encores they received at last
night's performances.
The Whalens, who present an Irish
comedy, "O'Donovan Dunn, M. P." have
a very clever and funny playette,
showing the ridiculous positions in
which an ambitious young Irishman
may place himself. Harry De Lain,
character change artist and vocalist,
presented another good feature, an act
which has never before rearhed Port
land. "Peggy Green's Birthday," is Its
title. It is amusing and farcical in
character, and won unstinted applause.
Little Kitty Pearce, juvenile singer and
dancer, and the Sloan Sisters, singing
and dancing soubrettes, fill out the
bill.
"BUTTERFLY" ORDERS. BIG
Impossible to Fill Evening Requests
for Lower Floor.
Mail orders for "Madam Butterfly,"
which is to be at- the Heilig Theater
March 7, 8 and 9, have been received
from both in and out of town, with a
rush that is entirely unprecedented in
the history of Portland's playhouses.
The volume of letters during the past
few days has fairly swamped the man
agement, and it is now announced
that the lower floor is entirely sold
out for every night performance except
the matinee that is to be given March
9.
Altogether, more than 1000 separate
orders have been received up to date.
As they arrive they are taken
charge of by. J. G. Harley, who is here
representing Henry S. Savage. Mr.
Harley has personally filed the orders,
and last night tickets were mailed to
all subscribers, both in and out of
Portland.
"Although expecting an enormous
sale.- the bulk of orders that has
come each day has actually astounded
us." said Manager Pangle last night.
"The entire, lower floor is now sold
out for every night performance, but
seats on this floor may still be se
cured for Saturday afternoon. People
who have been fortunate enough to
secure lower-floor seats would do well
to keep them, as it is absolutely im
possible for us to exchange them.
"The public should not get the im
pression, however," that the entire
house Is sold out, although It un
doubtedly will be several days before
the opening. There are still good
seats to be had in the balcony. A
number of these seats are still avail
able for all performances, although
more of the seats for the first night
are taken than for any other.
"The box-office sale will not open
until next Monday, but mail orders
will still be received each day. These
will be filled Just as soon as received,
but subscribers should remember that
it is useless to order lower-floor seats
except for the matinee. From present
indications, nearly every seat for the
entire engagement will be taken be
fore the time of opening the box
office."
EULOGY ; FOR ROSENTHAL
Austrian Pianist Will Play In Port
land After Eight Years' Absence.
"Rosenthal is a perfectionist. He never
makes an appeal to the popular; there is
no overplus of sentiment: no mawkish
rubato; a sweetness penetrated by the
loftiest severity and sincerity pervades
his playing. It Is for pure beauty that
he strives. His Interpretations are never
bizarre: he strikes Into no new pa-ths of
eccentricity: he avoids distorted and sen
sational effects; yet in every turn, in
every phrase, you are confronted with
new shades of mearling. subtle tintings,
and even when he lets loose the thun
derbolt there is always the sense of
power reserved."
This is high praise, and from the Mu
sical Courier after Rosenthal's first ap
pearance at Carnegie Hall. The great
Austrian pianist will play at the Heilig
Theater Tuesday evening. March 13, un
der the direction of Lois Steers-Wynn
Coman. and the seat sale will open Sat
urday, March 9.
