She toyed with the imagination of a

?lut-k sees in it a most enjoyable
wank, and Zimbalist. who of course
lels an interest in the story, marvels
t the American daring.
, Mm. Gluck. therefore, who appears
tonight at the Heilisj in joint recital
with Zimbalist. is the real Aima Gluck.
.She is the beauteous lass. who. born in
Koum&nia. came, at the age of 3. to
the United States. She is so young
Mhe can barely remember when Cleve
land served a second term, which means
she is basking in that delightful in
terim between 25 and 28. Zimbalist
Is as young as she. At II he was
summoned before the kings and queens
at the Knglish court and a great as
semblage of loyalty there- was. too.
Tlie Dowaser Km press Marie, of Rus
sia, was visiting her sister, the Queen
mother Alexandra of England, at the
time. Zimbalist played and the Dow
ager Kmpress forgot her regal
.Ifecorum, and. pinching the youth on
th cheek, told him some day to make
a wish and let her grant It.. -Military

"One day the opportunity came. My
work called me away from my coun
try and 1 asked to be relieved of mil
itary duty." explained Zibmaltst at the
Multnomah Hotel yesterday. "The
Qaeen Mother herself carried my re
adiest to the t'zar. and it was granted."
that is why I am nut uoiv In the. vrar
I. suppose. Ihe (jtieen Mother told me
she wanted me to go on with my play

- It seems that this young pair who
re at the Ileilig toniaht have rivaled
each other in odd and unusual inol-'
dents of their careers. Mine; Oluck. It
is remembered, made a debut in .New
York in 190s which goes down in his

out of her home community around
Lake George and Schenectady. X; T-, and
took New York by storm in the Fall
of 90t. In that season she sang 11
different-roles, only two of which she
had previously even studied. She was
ihe sensation of the year. She arrived
slmosl before she started Her educa
tion had been in the common and nor
mal schools of New York State, and yet
in a night she rose to front rank in
grand opera a notable example of the
very lew w ho gain su( h place without
Kuropean training. She is. then, the
truly American opera star. -.
"But do you know I am 'a woman
without a country." half sighed the
comely diva. "I had always supposed
1 was an American, but my marriage to
Zimbalist. a Russian, makes me a Rus

That is the plain English of it."
This was the stinging rebuke deliv
ered by Circuit Judge McGinn in decid
ing the suit of Frank C. McNurlen
against the T. B. Potter Realty Com
pany, who had sold McNurlen a lot ir.
Bayocean. Park on alleged false repre
sentations. The Judge awarded McNur
len the full amount he had paid, ex
penses incurred in looking over the lot
after he had paid for it, and told the
engineer's attorney that had he asked
for $250 exemplary damages he. would
have granted it. -
Paving Declared Flimsy.
According to the allegations in the
complaint McNurlen purchased the lot
with the understanding that it was in
the center of the growing business sec
tion of Bayocean, that it was close to
a new dock, and that the streets were
paved on all sides. When he looked, at
the lot he found it situated in a stretch
of sand dunes and brush, far from the
nearest habitation, and almost inacces
sible. He sued for ?525 and for JbO ex
penses incurred in jjoing to look over
the lot.
Especial significance is attached to
Judge McGinn's decision- in view of
the fact that a petition for receiver
ship in the T. B. .potter Keaity uom
pany. formerly the Potter-Chapin
Realty Company, is now pending in
Circuit Judge Gatens' court, and is
scheduled for hearing this week.
Numerous purchasers of lots In Bay
ocean Park have joined together in
asking for a receiver for the company.
S. B. Vincent, of the State Corpora
tion repartment, was called to the
stand yesterday and testified that the
pavement- laid in some parts - of Bay
ocean was' of the flimsiest Bort and
would not stand heavy traffic. The
contracts for lots called for '28 miles
of pavement, whereas only three and
one-half miles had been laid, he said.
Full Amount Allowed.
In deciding the case, Judge McGinn
oaidr-
"Photographs and pictures of Bay
ocean were turned over to this boy for
one purpose, and that was to catch the
unwary, those who were not pofjted,
those who were not informed. It was
done to- fool him. . It was done to
catch him.
"The testimony of the last witness
on the stand was enough, and nothing
else is needed to show the character of
this transaction from beginning to end.
This boy was a . long way from the
property and he had a right to rely
upon the representations of those who
had peculiar knowledge of it. They
fooled him and they fooled him to the
top of his bent. He is entitled to every
dollar he sues for, and the return of
the expenses he incurred in going to
view the property at Bayocean. He is
entitled to it all."

Plans to submit to the next session
of the United States Congress a hill
providing for the establishment of a
Department ot Peace, the primary ob
ject of which-would be to -eliminate
unemployment in the United States,
were discussed at a gathering of rep

held at the T. M. C A. building yes

A paper was read by Dr. W. w.
Toungson, In which he took up a phase
of the social unrest and the need of in
dustrial reform.
The move for the establishment of
the' new Government department was
originated by a former membership
secretary of the Portland T. M. C. A".,

H W. Stone, gen".! secretary of the
M. G. A, I B. Rhodes
state secremi i... -J.
A. Goodell, an international secre
tary of the association. ' .
The work of the proposed depart
ment, as outlined by those backing the
movement, would be primarily to es
tablish institutions throughout the
country where the unemployed might
be sent to school and taught various
trades. According to the plan, wnat
ever would be produced by those learn
ing trades would be disposed of to sup
port the institutions and those attend
ing them. When a student of the school
learned his trade those backing the
move would have the Government ad
vance money to him. to be repaid in 10
years, to set himself up in business.
