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 the best ways and means of illuminating residences, stores, office buildings, etc.. by artificial means. Mr. Marshall was brought to Portland by the Portland Rail way, Light & Power Company. Patient Goes Insane. John Rittenberg, a patient at St. Vincent's Hospital, who was being removed at noon yesterday to the County Hospital, became violently insane and leaped out of the carriage in an effort to escape from his escort, a nurse 'from the hospital.

An Modern Woodmen are requested to attend the funeral of Neighbor Clifton, of Wisconsin, at Crematory, 2 P. M., Wed 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.

The new owner of the Lambert will remodel that structure. W. H. McMonies & Company have remodeled the old Ross building throughout.

Women's Exchange, 133 Tenth street: 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. , WHERE T0 DINE.

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. PERSONALMENTION. Samuel Kxeidel. of Ellensburg, Wash., is in Portland on business.
