FAIRY OPERA ALSO SUNG In "Tales of Hoffman" and "Han ell and Gretel" Appear Many Famous Artists Enchanting Musio and Stage Effects. The rush for seats has begun In earnest to Judge by the long, serpen tine procession of ticket buyers that wound from Sherman. Clay Co.'s store out Into the adjacent street yes terday at 10 o'clock when the box office sale of seats opened lor the Chicago Grand Opera Company. Already hundreds of reservations have been made by mail, but there Is always a large number who prefer to select their own seats personally, and these are now besieging the box office for desirable 16cations. Fortunately there are still some good seats left for the various operas which are to De given at the Orpheum (formerly the lleillg), March 31 to April z inclusive, under the management of Lois Steers- "VVynn Coman. It speaks well for the discriminating judgment of Portland music-lovers that many Inquiries are being made concerning the Wednesday matinee, April 2, whlfh. because of Its rich diversity of offerings, appeals to many persons with greater interest than any of the other operas. ' ' Ballet Sera at Matinee. Tha matinee will be the only perform ance at which the complete corps-de-ballet of 28. led by Roslna Gall I. pre miere danseuse etoile, will be seen. These will offer ten numbers, the first being two beautiful Slavic dances by Dvorak in which Kosina Gall I and Anna Boll man are assisted by the full corps. Oe-ballet. Rublnstein's "Toreador et Andalouse" Is the next number for the ballet, after which Julie Hudak gives another Slavic dance by Dvorak. Lortslng's Dutch clog dance for. the corps de-ballet is full of vivacity and merriment, after which comes Victor Herbert's wonder ful Habanera from . his new opera "Natoma," which is so vividly Indian In character, and being localized on the Pacific Coast has brought this section of America into operatic fame. No. S ls a Hungarian dance by Brahma No. 7 is Vanucclnis "La Ciociara." a character study by Julie Hudak and Lulgl Albertleri. Two num bers of witching beauty by Roslna Galll follow, an adagio by Johan Strauss and the irresistible "Plmlcato" from Leo Delibes ballet 'Sylvia." Fackantmrnt Spell Great. There is a spell of enchantment thrown about one by Pcllbes" ballet music that outrivals anything of the kind the world of music or art has yet known. The closing number given by Kosina Galli and the corps-de-ballet Is Johan Strauss' valse "Roses From the South." which Gence and her dancers gave recently in Portland. The second act of Offenbach's "Tales of Hoffman." which is a fascinating little opera with captivating music, will precede, the dancing. This will be sung In French by the following principals: tJlulletla Helen Stanley Nlrlaos iV'-'RuB.r.

JOHN CLAIRE) MONTEITH. Daruone, gave further evidence at a matinee recital in the ballroom of the Multno mah Hotel yesterday that he can be depended upon always to make a fine, satisfying concert appearance. Ho la not only one of tha most finished con cert soloists In thla city, but In the Pacific Northwest, and. far from rest ing on the vocal laurels he has gained, lie is as hard-working a student as ever in vocalisation and programme making. Ills programmme yesterday, an un usually fine one, was arranged to show the many contrasts of his voice, and he eang so well that he fully deserved the plaudits he won from the largo audience. Lucien E. Becker was the piano ac companist and he played with skill and musiclanly finish. The sense of the unusual was also noticed in Mr. Mon leith's programme, consisting of selec tions not often grouped together. The Massenet excerpts were splendidly sung and Tschalkowsky a "Pilgrim's Song" thrilled. Hammond's "Ballad of the Boy Fiddler" had haunting, mystlo charm ar.d the rousing liomany songs the necessary abandon. Mr. Monteith had several recalls, but the only extra number he gave was the "Toreador" song, from "Carmen." The event was uder the direction of the Monday Music Club.

Crane, dean of comedians of the American stage, was given a recep tion at St. Helens Hall, the Episcopal Church boarding school for girls, yes terday, and spoke to the faculty and students about some of his stage ex periences. He was Introduced by Bishop Scadiling. who heartily com mended the work Mr. Crane has done, and the pure and delightful comedies produced by him. The central lesson which Mr. Crane gave was sincerity in art. His anec dotes were amusinc, and his counsel to the young women was to be them selves; that the highest form of acting was simplicity, and to avoid acting ana to work hard. At the close light re freshments were served, and Mr. Crane met all the students informally.

A self-confessed ex-con vlct only a few months out of Salem, lecturing on his prison experience, as an accompani- ent to a motion picture dealing with the "honor system," is a feature which took well at the Star Theater last nignt. The speaker is W. L. Hassell, a one armed man, a lawyer by profession. who was sentenced from Baker County in 1910 to serve three years for bur glary. Incidentally, he avers that he was not guilty 01 me crime. As Hassell delivered his monologue, while a highly melodramatic picture portraying the fall and rise of an "honor man was unreeled Deiore mem, men and women In the audience shed tears and now and then someone in the darkened theater sobbed aloud. As long as the law deals only witn effects and does not seek the cause. It will be no nearer a solution." said the speaker. "Not heredity, ' not alcohol, not passion, is the cause of crime, but pure selllsnnese. 1 never nearu ui brutal official reforming a criminal. but kindness does it. The abolition of stripes and the lockstep has made men at Salem realize that they are men still. They are learning new lessons in citizenship." To round out his lecture tne speaker delivered in its entirety Portia's speech beclnnins-. "the Quality of mercy Is not strained." without a break or a false quantity.

That politics forms no part of the work or purposes of the bureau of mu nicipal reasearch, which is investigat ing the workings of the government of Portland, was the declaration yester day of W. B. Holton, Jr., who is in charge of the work. "A report has been circulated to the effect that we are merely delving into the city records and into the workings of the government for the purpose of making political capital for someone or for the injury of some candidate for .office," said Mr. Houlton. "I wish to say that politics Is no part of our work. "Our purpose la to study the meth ods of transacting the city's business with the end In view of suggesting remedies or improvements. We have been engaged by a circle of business men who desire" to know if there is not some better way of transacting the city's affairs. Their purpose is not to help any candidate or to tear down the present form of government in the in terest of some other form." Woodstock Women to Meet. The Woodstock W. C. T. U.

LECTURE-RECITAL GIVEN ON OPERA TO BE HEARD Miss Dorothea Nash Explains Music and Plot of "The Jewels of the Madonna," Which Will Be Sung Here. OT only was the meaning of Er manno Wolf-Ferrari's new opera, "The Jewels of the Madonna," vividly portrayed, but much of the In fluence of this composer as a strong force in the new school of the music of today, both In this country and Eu rope, were voiced in a lecture-recital given yesterday' by Miss Dorothea Nash, a pianist, in the tearoom of the Meter Frank Company's store. Seven hundred people, mostly women, were In the audience and they were cordial In expressing the pleasure they had in re ceiving such an artistic, educational treat. Miss Nash showed unexpected talent as a lecturer. She is gifted In that di rection with these attributes: An en thuslsatic love of music; the artistic ability to play quickly a phrase on the piano and then talk interesting about what the composer means: a clear, beautiful speaking voice, and a grace ful platform presence. It is not often in the person of one lecturer that all these fine gifts are centered. Karly Production Adda Interest. The opera, "The Jewels of the Ma donna." has current Interest from the fact that it is one of the operas to 1 wooir bv the Chicago Grand Opera Company, at the Orpheum Theater in tins cn. aim "uBo -this peorle at yesterday's matinee 11s listened to its message with more than ordinary pleasure. Wolf-Ferrari was born in the year 1S8S and although an Italian, his music has German color. -itaii:in sav that he Is too German. and Germans say that he Is too Ital ian." becan Miss -asn. in im of the Madonna' his music Is wonder ful and interesting. There are three acts on Neapolitan life. Its story, verse bv C. Zancrarinl and E. Goliscianl, and English version by Claude Avellng. Is awful and squalid. It tells us of the Camorrlsts. the latter word standing in Italian for 'battle, murder or -sudden death.' We revel Jn the carnival spirit of Naples and become acquainted with the Neapolitans, with their gayety. holl dav spirit, reverence for their religion and adoration for their particular pat ron saint and the Virgin. "We meet with Gennaro. a black smith: Carmela. his mother; Msliella, his adopted or foster sister; Kafaelle. head of the Camorrlsts, and others There is no prelude or introduction to the opera, as I discovered when I was In London last June. Among those who move about the stage are those who sell sacred images. Ice cream, mac caroni. eta. Offering Is Provided. "We see a small public square on the Bay of Naples, where Carmelas" house stands. An animated, crowd awaits the arrival of tha festival pro- ' s V J 1 i X - ' I Jt .

Who Lee- tared on "'I' he Jewels of tbe Madonna." cession In honor of the Virgin, and dur ing a lull in the gay tumult Gennaro appears at the door of his workshop, bearing a wrought iron candelabrum as an offering to the Madonna, at whose feet he had often In secret poured out his well-nigh hopeless love for Maliella." Miss Nash then told the remainder of the romantic story of the opera and played with artistic skill selections from the music She sketched the char acter of the reckless, gipsy-like Ma liella. the appearance of her real lover, Rafaele, the brigand chief; brought in the Camorrists. and told how Gennaro, to convince the girl that he sincerely loved her, obeyed the hint she gave him to steal the jewels from the statue of the Madonna, although the act made him as one accursed and caused him to take his life. The girl drowns her self in the sea. The music . played waa bright and tuneful and shows that Wolf-Ferrari has cot swung too far to the bizarre, exotic school of Puccini, Debussy and Strauss. MIsa Nash lectures at Meier Frank Co.'s store tomorrow at t:Z0 o'clock on Massenet's "Thais," when Mrs. Susie Fennel Pipes, violinist, will play the fa mous "Meditation," and Miss Nash lec tures again Thursday on "Hansel and Gretel" and "Tales of Hoffman."

OMEDT la the predominant feature or tna 0111 at ruuen ims wee Feature acta running over with laughs line the entire programme, keeping the audience In an uproar almost from the first curtain to tha motion picture winduo. Perhaps the most entertaining of the bunch is Cbarlea K. sweet, wno la list ed on tha programme as a burglar. Re looks the part, talks the part and acts the part. He has a good line of jokes, knows how to tell them and has some interesting musical Instruments and knows how to play them. He Is a show all by himself. Valentine and Bell showed the au diences yesterday some real thrilling comedy wheel performances. It wasn't the usual line 01 bike rming. Emil Subers, listed aa "the Georgia Boy," Is a good blackface comedian and has a good line of songs and jokes. He made a atrong hit m a couple or nov elty coon songs direct from tbe rag' time factory. A lively and exceedingly funny skit wound around a country hotel got its full share of applause and stirred up mora than Its share of laughter. The act is called "A Course Dinner." Beth La Mar, listed as "The Effervescent Comedienne," makes a distinct hit with pretty songs and graceful dancing. She's one of the kind that makes up catchy little songs on the spur of the moment and sings them with gestures that are nothing short of marvelous. Real acrobats are the members of the Florenst family, who are on the pro gramme as "European society acro bats." Tbey perform some wonderful feats and display remarkable strength, grace and artistic agility. Empress. lyfJXDA GLENDOWER, appearing In 1 I "A Christmas on the Comstock," Is the favorite on the programme at the Empress this week, and this is not sole ly because she Is a former Portland girl by anx means, for she plays her part in the sketch with an art that would make her a favorite even though she were not In her "home town." The most brilliant act in the pro gramme Is the pantomime play, "The Rose of Mexico," In which Mario Mo lasso appears In the leading role, as sisted by Mile. Mario Corlo and com pany. It Is a pantomimic play in three scenes, whirling with passions that run from the extremes of tragedy to the extremes of comedy, a play of flash ing Mexican costumes, haunting Mex ican music and charcateristic Mexican dances. The "Bull Fight Whirl," a novelty dance Introduced in the pan tomime by the two leading characters, is very striking and pretty. The "Skaters By Jouve," who open the programme, are all that the name implies and introduce some feats on roller skates that are calculated to make the audience hold its breath. Dow and Dow, in a line of comic songs and dances, . in comedy sailor garb on board a comedy cruiser, are followed by Jeannie Fletcher, "the Scotch night ingale, whose songs brought her num berless encores in the performances yesterday. Mealy and Montrose and "bcream Welch'' intersperse in their "Play Ball" act a series of striking acrobatic stunts with' a line of equally striking and uproarious patter and byplay. Orpheum.

Apsil; od os r-s !' .j l m and most dramatic of comediennes. She is known as the "electrio spark" and is trulv magnetic Besides four new songs she has a dramatic recitation in three verses, with incidental music, which is intensely interesting and called forth much applause. Daisy has a mop of red curls and her voice Is a beautiful deep contralto. Just whether to place the ramous talking motion pictures In the list Is difficult, as It Is of headline Importance and decidedly a novelty. A lecturer ap pears on the screen, his lips form words, and we hear his voice telling of the marvel's of Edison's Invention. Then a pianist plays, a girl sings, a violinist appears, dogs come into the motion pictured room, and their bark Is real istic; plates, fall and the crash is nat ural; whistles are blown and a bugle sounds, all, of course, via phonographs back of the curtain, and all with amaz ing synchronization. Edison's minBtrels are the second in the series. A quintet of musical girls have a high-class act, in which one plays the violin, one the cornet, one the trom bone, and another the traps and piano. One is a soprano soloist. All of it is good and the selections are well chosen, with an eye and ear for general enter tainment, Blxley and Lerner are a clever duo who sing. Bixley as Melba and Lerner as Caruso frolic and fritter time de lightfully. All in a class by himself Is Fred M. Griffith, who is a marathon palmist, a clever chatterer and who keeps every one guessing. His act is unusually quick and amusing. La Crandall, dainty and demure, clad In bright green, splashed with white, has a wire act that is meritorious in a marked degree. Closing the bill is San dor's burlesque circus.

GREAT inroads into popular favor with their patrons do the members of the Lyric Musical Comedy Company make in the present week's bill, "A Crowded Hotel; or. C. O. D." Is Its title. Charles Alphin wrote It and Ed S. Al len, the Hebrew comedian, has dressed it up in fine shape, assigned roles with attention to qualifications, and sprinkled It through with popular songs. Probably because he had a hand in producing the play Mr. Allen has kept himself a bit modestly In tne back ground this week, and he isn't on the FORMER SEATTLE JUDGE MAKES THIS DECISION IN FAVOR OF OLD FRIEND Judge J. W. Doyle Has Given Plant Juice a Thorough xnai ana jttecommenas xt. To show that Plant Juice is not un known to the people in the Northwest, but already has many friends here, we take great pleasure in publisning tne following testimonial from Judge J. W. Doyle, who resides at 1007 Eddy Street, in Seattle. Judge Doyle has lived In that city for over 20 years, was a mem ber of the Cltv Council and police judge of Georgetown for six years be fore Georgetown was annexed to Se attle, he is a large property holder In that town and has retiree, rrom active business life to take things easy. He made the following statement about the benefits he has received from tnis wonderful tonic: "Mv wife and I have been reading your advertising matter with great in terest and noticed mat you naa none from the Northwest as yet so we con cluded that It was our duty to come In and tell you what Plant Juice has done for me, I am very well known in Se attle and many of my friends know the trouble I have had with my stomach for the past three years. I was In Los An geles, CaL, recently and It was while I was there that I heard of Plant Juice, at that time I was taking a treatment for constipation and Indigestion, I suf fered severe pains from the formation jt gas in my stomach, had to De very careful what I ate and even then the gas would form. I could find nothing that would help me. Friends that were using Plant Juice urged me to try this remedy and I decided to do so. It has simply worked wonders in my case and I can now eat the heartiest foods with no bad results and I am feeling better in every way. I came in here a perfect stranger to you but an old friend of Plant Juice and know that it will do all that you claim for it." It is not what we say but what the people eay that makes Plant Juice so popular and the people would not come forward and say these things if they were not fully convinced that it would do all that is claimed for it and live up to all the promises that we make for it. Those who suffer from any derangement of the stomach, kidneys, liver or blood will find a Teal friend in Plant Juice. If you suffer from indi gestion, biliousness, gas, bloating, no appetite, coated tongue, foul breath, sleep poorly, have pains across the back or in the joints try Plant Juice at once.
