Arrest Italian for Stabbing. Louis
Farche. an Italian, 22 years of age, was
arrested last night in his home, at 651
Fifth street, by Policeman Stewart and
Detective Coleman, on a warrant charging
him with assault with a dangerous
weapon. The warrant had been issued
on February 30, and Farche has been on
the police "wanted" list since. The charge
on which Farche was arrested arose from
a quarrel which the prisoner had on Feb
ruary 10, with another Italian. Franko
Taccone. The men had a disagreement
over a woman. It is said, andxthe affair
culminated when the men met at Fifth
and Sheridan streets. In this encounter
Farche drew a razor and slashed Taccone
several times, making ugly wounds.
Bible Lessons Illustrated. The
Bible school of the First Christian Church
offers a most interesting and instructive
programme on the review of the last

ing each lesson of the quarter. The
church will be darkened for the occasion,
and any one who would like to get the
"sum and substance" of the quarter's
work indellibiy impressed on his mind
would do well to attend this school Sun
day morning at 10 A. M., corner Park
and Columbia streets.
Plea for the Kindergarten. At a
meeting of the mothers of the Irvington
Kindergarten on Friday afternoon. Miss
Elizabeth K. Matthews, supervisor of the
kindergarten training class of St. Helen's
Hall, gave a talk on the kindergarten as
a factor in the public school education.
She showed in a very lucid manner the
reasons far placing the ' kindergarten in
the public school, the principal argument
being to educate the mass of immigrant
children who are being thrust upon us
and who in time by means of suffrage
will be in the majority.

PORTLAND SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
CONCERT A BRILLIANT SUCCESS
Marquam Grand Theater Crowded With Enthusiastic Audience Mrs.
Beatrice Dierke, as Soloist, Receives an Ovation.
BT J. M. Cil'EXTIN".
SURPASSING even the expectations of
its friends, cordially welcomed, and
attended by an audience represent
ing the musical, educational and social
life of this city, the first concert of the
newly reorganized Portland Symphony
Orchestra, Charles Dierke conductor, has
passed into history. It was a great tri
umph, and only those people who know
the uphill work necessary to make pos
sible a series of symphony concerts, real
ize the full import of these words.
Mrs. Edna B. Jones the business man
ager of the orchestra, is to be personally
congratulated on the (treat success that
has attended her efTorts. ' She has won
where many failed. Previously, symphony
concerts failed in Portland largely be
cause the promoters attempted the impos
sible trying to make the receipts taken
in at the door pay all expenses. Natu
rally, the best professional musicians in
town play for their living, and symphony
concerts are expensive. Mrs. Jones, the
new manager, went ahead on a new line
she secured in advance a guarantee fund
sufficient to meet all tle expenses of the
series of concerts. Musical education here
is therefore so much ahead.
The Marquam -Grand theater yesterday
afternoon looked as if the crowd waited
for a tragedy star to appear. And to
think that music alone brought them!
Every seat downstairs, balcony and
boxes, was occupied, mostly by women
and girls it is true, but leavened by a
sprinkling of men. The latter are sup
posed to be too much engaged at business
to get away afternoons to a symphony
concert. Professional and amateur mu
sucians were there in force, also the gen
eral public. To be sure the concert was
a little late in beginning. It was an
nounced that the hour for starting was
3:30 o'clock. The stage was set and the
orchestra members, conductor and soloist
were all present, but the audience kept
arriving at such a steady stream that the
management wisely concluded to wait
about a quarter of an hour until every
body was seated. Then the musical feast
began.
Meyerbeer's "Coronation March" was
fittingly selected as an opening number.
It appeals, with its swelling, joyous
chords, to popular taste and was recog
nized as such. B. F. Driscoll's cornet
solo was appreciated for its colorful tone.
It was noticed that Mr. Dierke conducted
without manuscript, and that he threw
his whole enthusiasm into the number.
The supreme moment to the audience,
many of whom especially the younger
set had never in all their lives heard a
symphony played by an orchestra, came
when Ludwig Beethoven's "Symphony No.
3" was announced.
I may explain to the younger people
that one eminent authority gives this def
inition of a symphony: "An elaborate
composition for full orchestra, consisting
usually, like a sonata, of three or four
contrasted yet inwardly related move
NOT PERMITTED TO RESIGN
CAPTAIN BRinx DISMISSED BY
EXECCTIVE BOARD.
No Voice Raised in His Behalf, and
Vote Is I'nanimous Patrolman
West Also Dropped.
Accepting as proved the charges of in
subordination and neglect of duty filed
by Chief of Police Gritzmacher against
Patrick Bruin, late captain of police and
head of the city detective department,
after Bruin's resignation, the City Ex
euctive Board, at its meeting yesterday
afternoon, voted unanimously to dismiss
Bruin from the service. Bruin was not
present to defend himself and no mem
ber of the Board raised a voice in his
behalf.
Chief Gritzmacher's charges, which
were filed with the police committee of
the Board and ' recommended for appro
val, were based on the fact that Bruin,
after tendering his resignation to the
captain in charge at police headquarters
late one night, took the sealed envelope
back, tore It open and exhibited its con
tents to a newspaper reporter: and on
the further fact that Bruin, after asking
a brief leave of absence for the purpose
of pondering the Chief's order deposing
him as head of the detective department,
wholly neglected to return to duty or to
explain his action.
The action of the Executive Board
leaves the way clear for the appointment
of a police captain to fill the vacancy
caused by Bruin's removal. There are
no eligibles. according to Thomas G.'
Greene, chairman of the police commit
tee of the Board, and it will devolve
upon Chief Gritzmacher to call the at
tention of the Civil Service Commission
to the fact. The Commission will there
upon hold an examination of candidates.
Bruin has been succeeded as captain of
detectives by Captain George H. Bailey.
Tlie same action as in the Bruin case
was taken with reference to AV. E. West,
the patrolman who recently took French
leave of the department and left the
city, deserting both his wife and his job.
GOVERNOR REVIEWS 0. N. G.
Quarterly Review and Inspection
of First Keg-iment at Armory.
Governor Chamberlain. Adjutant
General Finzer. Colonel James Jack
son and members of the staff of the
Orejcon National Guard reviewed the
state troops at the Multnomah County
Armory last night. The occasion was
the quarterly review and inspection.
Following" the ceremonies in connec
tion with the formation of the regi
ment. Governor Chamberlain made a
fhort speech. He paid tribute to the
National Guard of Oregon and to the
militia of the United States. Governor
Chamberlain said that war between
the yellow and white races was possi
ble and that tb state troops would
be the first soldiers called upon, and
that it was his aim to keep the stand
ard of the Oregon National Guard as
high as possible. The Governor re
ferred a number of times to the old
adi.ge which has descended from the
time of General Washington, '"In time
of peace, prepare for war."
There was an unusually large at
tendance of enlisted men and company
eommanders were correspondingly
happy. Upwards of 1200 visitors occu
pied seats In the gallery and on the
conclusion of the exercises the guests
enjoyed a social dance. Governor
Chamberlain has been a Guardsman
for more than 40 years. One of the
first detachments commanded by him
was at Albany and he was inspected
by Colonel Jackson. when that officer
was in ..the regular service.

and Mrs. P. S. Contant. of Grants

Rabbi Dr. Jacob Nieto. of San Fran
cisco, is registered at the Portland. Rabbi
Nieto is one of the witnesses to the al
ments, as the allegro, adagio, minuet or
trio or scherzo, and the finale in quick
time." This is the story in cold words.
But as interpreted by the orchestra yes
terday afternoon, it was a call to serious
musicianship. "Symphony No. 3" is
shorter than many similar compositions,
and is marked by dignity and appealing
force. Some people have interpreted this
symphony as voicing life and death. To
me it does not speak of anything so
grave-like, but suggests the gloom of
night, with lowering sky and then the
beauty of dawn. It tells of a nature
study.
The most difficult number on the pro
gramme, both for orchestra and Mrs.
Beatrice Dierke. soloist, was the Franz
Liszt concerto. It fairly bristles with
work compelling tremendous execution
and technique, and was grandly played.
It made me wish I was playing in tnc
trombone section, toward the end the
trombone seems to suggest satisfactory
expression in this regard. The most pop
ular moment was when the orchestra
played the introduction to the third act
of Wagner VLohengrin." That mes
sage went -home. Didn't many a dignified
matron present say in their heart of
hearts, when a certain march -began:
"Ah-h-h. That air was played in the
church when I was married. .iow well
I remember!", Dvorak's "Slavonic
Dances" concluded the orchestra selec
tions. Speaking critically, so far as the or
chestra is concerned, the ensemble work
is very creditable, considering that the
musicians have been such a short tim;
together an organized body. I liked the
strings, especially the 'cellos, and the
four basses were a joy. The brass is just
about balanced, the trombone section
pleasing particularly. There ought, how
ever, to be a little more warmth in the
orchestral work, and the players ought to
watch their conductor's leads better. Mr.
Dierke was a success as conductor, and
gave authoritative readings. His "Ix
hengrin" interpretation was reverent, and
made me think of a great cathedral, with
smoking Incense, a procession of gray
cowled monks and white-robed altar
boys.
Mrs. Beatrice Dierke, piano soloist, -has
blossomed in her art. She has not played
recently in public, and her tone grandeur
was a surprise. The concerto was skil
fully handled for the piano, and received
the necessary fire and contrasts of spark
ling, liquid beauty. She received an ova
tion. The Saint-Saens, Rosenthal and De
Schloezer numbers were also well played.
The dynamics were present, but not ultra
predominant. Tone was more sought for.
Portland has reason to feel proud of such
an accomplished pianist. Mrs. Dierke's
encores were '.'If I Were a Bird." (Hen
seld) and "Etude Japonaise" (Poldini).
The concert concluded at 5:16 o'clock, and
everybody was pleased. The other con
certs are announced for April 24 and
May 10.
And it was really a success. And it was
all Portland-made.
