LCNCHEONS to BB Given. 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. Car Stops to Be Considered. C. J.
Franklin, general superintendent of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Com

WHAT undoubtedly will be one of
the roost brilliant events of the
present musical season Is the ap
pearance here of Mme. 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.
The discriminating
man insists upon
Hand-Ironed
s h i r ts because they
are never too stiff or
too limber always
just like new.
Send us your shirts
