Sheriff Word and deputies visited Gresham Wednesday in answer to complaints that liquor was being sold In violation of the dry law there, but found no evidence to corroborate the charge. Seven charges were made. The officers went through the building that had been formerly used as a saloon and where "soft" drinks are being sold. The proprietor told the officers to search everything, and they did. It is thought that the basis of the complaint is that several men had been seen in toxicated on the streets of Gresham, but they had come from the outside.

IS SHOWN Only Exception to Impressive and Stately Numbers Is Moszkowski's "Spain" AVith Throb of Drums and Clasli of Cymbals. BY JOSEPH M. QUENTIN. Persons whose musical tastes run to the conservative and the classical, lis tened with real delight to the fine con cert given yesterday afternoon at the Helller Theater by the Portland Sym phony Orchestra, Carl Denton, director, S. J. Silverman. With one exception, the Moszkowskl "Spain," the programme was one of quiet, deep atmosphere, and the cordial applause from the large audience re fleeted the musical selections chosen. The appreciation was not of the vehe ment kind, because of the quiet music. The word "beautiful" describes the Weber overture to the opera "Oberon. The overture was the child of Weber's old age, and it is justly celebrated. It opens in subdued tone, is an intellec tual treat and is worthy of its primal reputation as being a classical gem. At the same time, as an opening piece, one. much brighter and joyous would have roused the audience and whetted its appetite. MacDowell "Second Suite" Weird. ine MacDowell "Second Suite, opus 48, is Indian in texture, and therefore romantic, but somber, dark, weird. , If the American Indian had Irish or Latin strains in bis blood (maybe he has, but It is far back), his joy would have been of the merry, rollicking kind, and MacDowell, in depicting him, would have felt called upon to bathe his mu sical composition accordingly. But since tradition and present-day custom insist that we depict the stately Indian with dignity and absence of riotous joy, MacDowell followed custom In writing the kind of music we find In his "Second Suite," and the orchestra gave it adequate interpretation, keep ing the barbaric atmosphere sharply accented, t The basic quality of this music has been said to suggest the songs of the early Norse adventurers in America. Why not go back a step even farther and venture the suggestion that the weird music harks back to the mys tic inhabitants of America, Asiatics who crossed from Behring Straits or the Atlantis-like tribe of old Americans who built temples worthy of Egypt? The Schubert "Unfinished Symphony" kept up the stately, classical mood in which the concert started, and Its treatment was finished and reverent The swing and mad magic of the Mosz kowskl "Spain," with throb of drums, clash of cymbals, blare of brass and sweep of strings, stirred the audience to its depths. Dellgbted Recall Given. A delighted recall was given, and the applause did not stop until the se lection was repeated. There ought to be more selections like "Spain" on future symphony programmes. The Grieg "Two Elegies," "Heart Throbs" and "Last Spring," are finely polished and romantic, and were rap turously applauded, so much so that a repetition would have been welcome had Mr. Denton been so minded. Skil fully enough, the Sibelius "Flnlandia" was chosen as the last of the musical offerings. It is impressive, grand. Na tional in scope, and its rendition sent the audience home in happy mood. Mr. Denton conducted with first-class abil ity, and D. P. Nason was successful as concertmaster. The last concert of the symphony season for 1913-14 will be given April 26, with George E. Jeffery 'as con ductor. PERSONAL MENTION. M. R. Yates, Imperial. of Pendleton, is at the A. L. Demaris, Imperial. of Milton, is at the Mrs. Ray Knox, of Albany, is at the Cornelius. B.

Splendid Gains Shown by Oregon Life In Statements Filed With Insur ance Commissioner. It is generally admitted that the financial supremacy of New York arises chiefly from the fact that the home offices of a large number of life and fire insurance companies are located there, and every state in the Union has in the past paid a constantly growing tribute in premium payments to New York and assisted in the upbuilding of the bank clearances of the City of New York. Since the life insurance upheaval in 1905 among the so-called billionaire companies a wonderful change has taken place in the life insurance busi ness of the country. Nearly every state now has one or more home companies. and these compete successfully in busi ness getting with the billionaire com panies. In Oregon 50 companies are operating, and it must be gratifying Information for- every loyal Oregonian to know that Oregon Life Insurance Company leads every one of the 50 com panies. The sworn statements filed with In surance Commissioner Ferguson at Salem show that Oregon Life, after de duction of all policies which ceased by reason of death or otherwise, still made a gain of $1,141,384.00 in busi ness In force during the year 1913, and that no other company made so large a gain as that in the State of Oregon. That this is not the accidental hap pening of a single year is further evi denced by the fact that while In 1906, which was the year Oregon Life start ed business, its premium collections were but $24,474, the sworn statements of 1913 show the premium collections of Oregon Life !n that year were $242,895.00, and that no other company had made so large a gain in Oregon. Oregon Life is the only exclusively Oregon company, and makes all of its Investments in Oregon securities. It is one of the great upbuilding factors of this state, and its wonderful prosperity is a source of congratulation to Oregon and Oregonlans". Adv. MRS.

NJURED OFFICER PROBLEM Major at Loss to Place Disabled Man In Position. What shall be done with H. E. Taft, who Is neither on or off the Portland police force? Such is a question that Mayor Albee Is seeking to have answered. Mr. Taft, who was a mounted patrolman up to nearly one year ago. was badly Injured in an accident and has since been un able to perform his duties as a police man. For a long time his life was de- paired of, but he is able to be out now, although he Is not able to work- It is said that Mr. Taft never will be able to perform the duties of a police man; neither is he capable f perform ing the labors that belong to an ele vator operator or of a janitor, else he would be cared for in that manner.
