ELMAN IS VIOLIN MARVEL Greatest Masterpieces Easily Played by Famous Russian Boy. Mlscha Elman. the Russian artist, works miracles of violin art, and when he was the soloist, recently, for the Thomas Or chestra in Chicago he played the Tschal kowski 'concerto with so little trouble over Its stupendous difficulties that it was almost staggering to his audience of mu sical enthusiasts. The Evening Post said of him: "Elman is a violinist by the gift of the gods. He has learned in this, his youth, things which veterans are battling for In vain. He has acquired a mastery over the mechanical difficulties of the instru ment that is, in its completeness, almost unbelievable. But Elman has gone fur ther than' the pyrotechny of his art. Such ravishing tone as he puts forth has not been heard in-many years from others of his craft. That art so amazing should have evoked the maddest enthusiasm from his hearers was only natural." Elm an plays at the Heilig Theater on Monday eenlng, May 10, under the direc tion of Lois Steers-Wynn Coman, who will fill mail orders if sent with check to 308 Columbia building. MRS.

Fre--h Air and Exercise Expected to Cure "Wonld-be Snlcide's Determination. Morris Schmits. . of 2"5 Grant street, will be sent to the Multnomah County rockpile to save his life. Schmltz is de termined to kill himself. He drank chlo roform Wednesday night and was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital, where his life was saved. He is convalescing, but he declares his purpose to commit suicide is unshaken and that he is determined to take his life as soon as discharged from the hospital. City Physician Ztegler is equal ly determined that Schmltz shall continue living. After a talk with the fellow yesterday, he found that Scbmlts could not be dissuaded from his intention and so proceeded to arrange to have Schmits restrained from committing suicide until his present morbidness shall pass away. Believing that fresh air. plenty of exercise and wholesome living would accomplish that end. Dr. Ziegler called on Municipal Judge Van Zante dur ing the day and made arrangements for Schmits'- removal to the rockpile. Schmltz is but 26 years old. in vigorous physical condition and has no good reason for wanting to die, except "the melan choly viewpoint he has cultivated. His stomach is yet badly ulcerated from the poison he drank Wednesday .night. "Tou needn't think I can be kept from dying." he told Dr. Ziegler. "I will find a way. Life, it means nothing. I do not want to live, and so I will not. What is there in living, anyway. It's nothing but sorrow and disappointment, and In death I can forget all and find rest. It was not my fault I failed the other time. The next time I will succeed." Schmltz will be taken to the rockpile this week and will be kept at work there under surveillance until he sees the folly and weakness of his conduct. Beside get ting the advantage of wholesome living and hard work there, the authorities ar gue that he will be so overjoyed at re saining nis iiDerly as to view life as something worth living, after all. In order to make his commitment regular, a charge of attempting suicide will be lodged against him. PERSONALMENTION.
