The Harvard Club of Portland bas decided to follow the custom of some of the other college clubs of the city, and hold luncheons on the first Thursday of each month at some hotel which is to be decided on later. They are not limited to members of the Harvard Club, but are open to any man in Portland who has been associated with the uni versity, and the committee hopes that they will be well attended. A feature of the luncheons will be that the com mittee will have some one to give a short informal talk. The Harvard Club of Portland was organized two years ago and has at the present time about 4a members. The officers of the club are: A. L. Mills, president; K. H. Koehler. secretary and treasurer, ami Frank B. Riley, chorister. The first luncheon Is to be held on Thursday, February 6. at 12:15 P. M. The place will be announced later. Damages Not Obtained. Fred A. Jacobs, real estate man. was unable to secure Judgment from a Jury in Judge McGinn's court yesterday for damages done to a reproduction of a statue of Greek wrestlers by a work man In the employ of the Pacific Tent & Awning Company. This man broke two fingers oft the piece while in the Jacobs office hanging awnings, an end of a pole which he was carrying striking the statue. Suit was brought for the full value of the Matue, $300. the contention being that its commer cial value had been entirely destroyed. The jury brought in a verdict for the defendant company after being out only a few minutes, the theory of the Jurors being that it was the plaintiff's duty to protect his property more carefully than he did when a workman was . around. Citt to Beak Expense. According to one of the amendments proposed to the official charter by the committee of the Kant Side Business Men's Club, all trunk sewers will be paid for by the city by bonds or by direct taxation. This amendment would relieve the property owners from paying for trunk sewers. It Is urged by the olub that such amendment would be fair and attention is called to the East Stark-street trunk sewer as an illustration and also the extensions eastward as an example of the sppllcation of this amendment if it should be adopted. The committee will insist on this amendment along with the others suggested. More Clerks Authorized. Seven additional clerks have been authorized by the department for the Portland Postoffice, who will be distributed among the different stations. Under a new rule of the department, which will go Into effect on March 4. clerks in the Postoffice Department may work only eight hours within a period of ten hours, this completing a day s work. With the former force this arrangement of hours would not have been pos sible, but with the seven additional clerks the force will be balanced so as to conform with the new regula tion.

Lillian Nordica in concert at the Helllg Theater next Wednesday evening. February 5. under the direction of the Helllg Theater management. With her beautiful personality and wonderful vocal and dramatic equip ment, Nordica is one of the most famous artists before the public. Her superb voice Is under such perfect control that It can produce the required tone quali ties to express every possible sentiment. Melba. Nordica and Tetraxslnl are ad mittedly the greatest sopranos of the day. but on the concert platform Nor dica is unrivalled, one reason being that she is a wonderful programme buildet and her concert programmes are always of great beauty and variety and well chosen to display the singer's consum mate art. Another reason is her mag netic personality and dramatic tempera ment Without concert or stage set ting, so great is ber art that she brings the whole scene vividly before her auditors and the bare concert platform Is for the moment transformed to the scene of her song. No programme which this famous singer could give would be complete without the "Erl-King." of which she gives a matchless rendition and It Is promised that this number will be in cluded In her programme here. There will also be a number of English selec tions as Nordica is an enthusiastic advocate of song in tfie vernacular and was the first to attempt to sing Wagner In English. Assisting Mme. Nordica are William Russell Kummel, violln'st. and Romayne Simmons, pianist.
