; With a. large audience .expressing Its
Unqualified approval, the Italian Grand
U.tpera Company's presentations of two
,puras, "Cavalleria Rusticana" and
I "I Pagliacci," at the Baker Theater
;'Monday night, won instant success.
4 Much of the action and the singing
)n "Cavalleria" are by Santuzza, the
iVoquette, and Turlddu, the returned sol
dier ami professional heartbreaker.
Santuzza was attractively played and
ung last night by Miss Kathenna Lyn
3n-ook, and Turiddu by Kugenio de
.Folco. Miss Lynbrook made a robust.
clashing Santuzza. She made the part
jptand out with reckless coquetry, and
With Attraction. Her rich, pleasant
voice was heard to splendid advantage
in the introduction to the "Hymn to
the Madonna," and the rendition rang
with fervor. This vocal part just suits
Miss Lynbrook's middle register, and
he sang the score with line conndeuce
fiiid case.
Komantic l'art Well I'layed.
De Folco made a romantic, reckless
beau. The part of Turiddu calls for a
youth who returns from army service
to find that his former sweetheart, Lola.
Ikls wedded. Alrio, the village carter.
Tfcfore he meets Altio's wife, Turiddu
is made love to by Santuzza, but he
will have none of her. She plans re
venge. Liola is willing to listen to Tu
riddu's love speeches, and when San
tuzza reports this to Alno that worthy
and Turiddu fight & Sicilian duel.
To this story Mascagni has wedded
i-parklinK music, not easy to sing, but
attractive to the ear. Chief among the
beautiful melodies of this opera. Is the
.famous "Intermezzo" played by the or
chestra as an intermission between the
action on the stage. This "Intermezzo"
was rendered with much charm last
iiiwnt ana It sparkled with quiet devo
tional atmosphere and appealing
beauty.
t'horuN nnd Sllva Kxeellent.
The chorus sang with precision and
willingness. especially in the soprano
section. Silva made a picturesque
looking carter, and he cracked his whip
-with spirit. He sang his music with
rousing vehemence and fine effect. Miss
Mackie made a quiet, colorless Lola, but
,sang well. Miss Kenible as Mama Lu
cia, made that part domestic and sub
servient. , "I Pagliacci" has fun and laughter
lacking in the other opera. Fritzi
JScheff was a favorite Nedda. First
produced in Milan In 1892, and in this
country in 1894. "Pagliacci" has been
a decided record-breaker. The scenes
are laid in Calabria, during the Feast
of the Assumption. "Pagliacci" are a
troupe of wandering mountebanks.
Nedda Is the columbine, wife of Canio,
the master clown. Tonio is the clown,
Beppo the harlequin, and Silvio, a vil
lager. Characters Sit an Audience.
The opera Is curiously enough an
opera, within an opera. The latter is
Inclosed at a side of the stage, and the
characters and villagers sit on seats
as audience, and look at and applaud
;t!ie action of the principals. Nedda is a
llirt, and has a sweetheart, Silvio,
il onio wants to win her away from her
;husband and secret admirer, and when
fhe whips Tonio for daring to make
proposals to her, Tonio swears revenge.
He informs Canio of his wife's por
:uly. Canio waits until his troupe acts
.a mock domestic. disturbance, but his
Jealousy breaks out and he turns com
edy into tragedy by stabbing to death
.'bis wife and Silvio.
' Dc Folco made a happy, laughing
;tnaster clown, and he drove the iden
tical Tortland donkey that hauled
about the srreat Ruffo when he played
-as Tonio in "Pagliacci" in this city
during the visit of the Chicago Grand'
Xpera Company.
" Trasedy Change Sudden. ,
,' Ie Folco arose to greater heights
both, in acting and singing as Tonio
'than as Turiddu. lie quickly changed
to tragedy, and became the broken
hearted man who muttered after the
tabbing: "The comedy is finished."
His singing was easy and natural, and
fthe part gave him opportunity to dis
.play his fine dramatic voice. Mls3
"Lynbrook as Nedda was successful. She
,niade her presentation vocally attrac
tive, and mature. Bennyan as Tonio
Jmade a big hit in the celebrated "Pro
rogue" sung before the curtain, and
rmade up for his slight physique by his
'fine comedy work and splendid sing
ling. Silva made a noteworthy village
sweetheart, and sang with distinction.
jNcri was satisfactory as the harlequin.

Others Assist in Ceremonies That
; Follow Regular Show.
v With a blaze of stage trumpets and
.fanfare of bugles. William Rock, star
;of "The Candy Shop." was made Into
Wi regularly ordained Mut Monday night
jon the Hellig stage, right after the
performance. Muts sat on both sides
jof the footlights. On the stage W. P.
'-Strandborg. "The Big' Mut." decorated
appropriately in electric lights, pre
sided in state.
George L. Raker, in a toga and
.sandals and looking like a cross be
tween Othello and Raymond Duncan,
brandished a scimitar In his official
j'oUtion of Captain of the Guards.
Charles Berfr, in the trappings of a
Iioman senator, presided in his capacity
of "Tel et Tuh Yuh." An impromptu
eervice was put Into use. and Sir. Berg's
instructions to the candidate were keen
in original wit. Mr. Rock's replies
came hot jff the bat and the audience
Sot a great lot of fun out of the pro
ceedings. J. K. Werlein, as Neffer Kara Dliam,
jrave Mr. Kock the obligations, and
these two were done in original style,
embroidered In Mr. Werlein's best little
way-down-South dialect. Mr. Rock en
joyed the event and almost broke up
the initiation at times with his pert and
pertinent observations.
The company members and their
guests were grouped on the stage, and
they, too. had great fun out of their
star's affiliation with a new lodge. W.
T. Pangle was one of the officials
pressed into service, as was also Mon
roe Goldstein, as Guardian of the
Sphinx. The guards were W. F. Spen
cer, Harry Fischer, K. W. Mosher, Rob
ert Afiams, Dow Walker and N. B.
"Wells. The ceremony wae made for
fun, strictly speaking, but through all
the jesting gleamed the spirit of kind
ness and optimism for which the Order
of Men United to Serve is known.
Patrolman l-'alnts After March.
Though Monday was not an un
usually warm day, when the members
of the Portland Police Band concluded
their two-mile march boosting the Muts'
night at "The Candy Shop." all were
perspiring freely and. Chris Johnson,
patrolman and player of the baritone
horn, fainted in front of the police sta

Hospital and later removed to his home.
Ei OF WAR HELD AFAR
WHITE TEMPLE SPEAKER mE
DICTS ONE POWER IS EUROPE.
Dr. Gaebeleln'a Subject at Bible Con
ference Today Will Be "The Three
Fold Work of Christ.."
"There is no universal peace with
out the presence of him who is the
Prince of Peace. Tne creed that It
takes a great war to make a great
peace is a mistaken one. The prayer
'Thy Kingdom come" will never be ful
filled until the King comes. Then shall
this earth find its peace and glory."
This was one of the statements made
Monday by Dr. A; C. Gaebelein, who
is conducting a Bible conference in the
White Temple.
The topic of the night's discussion
was "What Shall -He the End of These
Things?" Dr. Gaebelein spoke on the
prophecies of Daniel. He traced the
history of the various dynasties of the
world and said that the end of war, as
shown by the prophet, is not yet.
Dr. Gaebelein gave as his belief,
drawn from his study of the prophecies,
that after this war there would be set
up in Europe one great power and that
would be succeeded later by the sec
ond coming of Christ. That the world
is swinging toward the Roman Catho
lic Church at present was the opinion
of the speaker.
"What would Nebuchadnezzar say if
he could be put into Europe and al
lowed to look on for about a week? I
think he would say 'Thank God that 1
lived in Babylon instead of in any of
these Christian countries,' " said Dr.
Gaebelein.
The meetings will continue through
out the week. They are interdenomina
tional and embrace a wide range of
topics. Special music is a feature.
MANAGER PLAN REVIEWED
Whitman College Senior Iecribes
I,a Grantle's Cily Government.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Wash., April 24 (Special.) Donald H.
Thompson, a senior who is majoring
in the department of political science,
has written an article entitled "La
Grande Under the Commission-Manager
Form of Government," which is now
appearing in the April number of The
Pacific Municipalities, a magazine pub
lished by the Northwest League of Pa
cific Municipalities.
The article deals with the city gov
ernment of La Grande, and in it Mr.
Thompson shows how the city-manager
plan of government in this city has
eliminated the spoils system which the
coniform of government alone has
failed to do- in many cities. Ho sets
forth in the article the success which
the city manager plan of government
has had along various lines, laying es
pecial emphasis on the cutting down of
the city taxes and debts.
The article was prepared under the
direction of the Whitman College Bu
reau of Municipal Reference and Re
search, and is based upon a recent in
vestigation made by Professor J. H.
Russell, head of the department of po
litical science, and Mr. Thompson.

DANGEROUS DEBILITY
Debility may result from a number
of causes worry, after-effects of
acute illness, lack of nourishment due
to disordered digestion, or anything
that makes the blood thin, thereby pre
venting it from carrying health and
nourishment to the tissues of the body.
The symptoms of debility vary but
weakness is always present, often a
tendency to fatigue easily, ringing In
the ears, black spots passing before the
eyes, weak back, dizziness, wakeful
itess caused by inability to stop think
ing, and unrefreshing sleep.
Debility is dangerous because it
weakens the body's defense against
disease. For Instance, debilitated peo
ple take cold easily and Winter is al
ways a trying time for them. When
one cold follows another the system
surely needs building up.
The treatment of such run - down
conditions with Dr. Williams" Pink
Pills is based on sound medical princi
ples and common sense. These pills
build up the blood so that it nourishes
every part of the body, nerves as well
as muscles and brings vigor, strength
and health.
Mention this paper and we will mail
you the booklet "Building Up the
.Blood." Address: Dr. Williams Medi
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your own

Grandmother Calls for Assistance, and
Both Are Hoisted Ont With Only
Miner Injuries.
VANCOUVER, Wash., April 20. (Spe
cial.) Clyde Meredith, & years old, de
siring to see what was under the house,
crawled through a loosened board and
dropped 25 feet into an old cistern.
Mrs. Meredith, who lives at 808 West
Eighth street, trying to locate her son,
crawled under the house and, being
unable to see, also fell into the cistern.
Mrs. Meredith's mother, hearing calls
for help, ran to the street and. hailed
W. B. Du Bois and Harry Smith, Dep
uty Sheriff, passing in a machine.
Mr. Smith carries a towline for emer
gencies, and this was used in extricat
ing the mother and son. Mrs. Meredith
slipped one end around tne boy and he
was hauled up. Then she was hoisted
out.
The old cistern was covered with
boards, -which had decayed. When the
boy climbed over them he broke through.
Mrs. Meredith broke her fall by catch
ing the side of the cistern, which is
bricked up.
Both mother and child were bruised,
but it is believed neither is seriously
injured.
LONGER SCHOOL YEAR NEED
Wisconsin University Survey Finds
Xo Political Meddling.
MADISON", Wis.. April 14. The re
port of William H. Allen on the survey
of the University of Wisconsin has
been made to the State Board of Pub
lic Affairs and a summary has been
given out.
"Numerous statements have been
made to the survey, both from within
and without the university itself, that
the university is undertaking to influ
ence legislation and-should discontinue
legislative activity and meddling in
politics," the report says. "No con
crete evidence has been obtained by the
survey of legislative interference or
ot meddling in politics.
The report suggests the extending
of the school year from 36 to 48 weeks.
This with a six weeks' Summer ses
sion would keep the school plant busy
the year round.
In reference to social and economic
standards for students it is suggested
that they be revised so that more stu
dent convocations be held; that stu
dents be encouraged by remission of
physical education to room far away
from the university; that the pro
gramme for self-supporting dormitories
be started promptly on an extensive
scale: that tho price of rooms in wom
en's dormitories be lowered, and that
student self-government, be given a
chance to learn from its own mistakes,
without intervention of faculty com
mittee or rulings.
Among the laws needed now as rec
ommended in the report are: That
compulsory military drill be abolished;
there is nothing in the university s re
lations with the Federal Government
that makes military drill compulsory.
Because of military drill the efficiency
of the department of physical educa
tion is aia uy itself to bo reduced
three-fifths; the same amount of time
spent in teaching the arts ot peace and
method of efficient citizenship would
do more to advance the interests of
the state.
That the State Superintendent of
Public Instruction and the university
president be omitted from the Board of
Regents. That department is hampered
by the present dual relations of the
Superintendent.
That the. Board of Regents be made
a state-created body where it is now
regent-created, and be given additional
power to ascertain facts about univer
sity management and administration.
That the Board be reduced from 15 to
five or seven members.

TITLE TO LOCKS PASSES
NO CEREMONY AT OREGON CITY AS
OWNERSHIP CHANGES AT 12.
GraJiamona, From Portland to Salem,
to Be First Steamer Tfcrous
Today Without Tolls.
OREGON CITT. Or., April 20. (Spe
cial.) Witnout ceremony or the blast
from a ship's siren, the locks of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company at Oregon City became the
property of the United States at mid
night this morning.
No vessels were en route either to
Portland or Salem during the nigrht and
the first eteamer to pass through the
locks free of tolls will be the Graham
ona, commanded by Captain Chris
Bluhm and owned by the Graham
Transportation Company, at 9 o'clock
this morning-. The Urahainona is laden
with groceries and produce from Port
land markets and is bound for Salem
with the cargo. She also probably will
carry a. few passengers up the river.
There will be no ceremony when the
steamer reaches the locks. T. W. Sul
livan, hvdraulic' engineer of the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Company,
notified the lock tenders that boats
would pass throuKh the lifts after mid
night free of tolls and that the Gov
ernment would take title to the prop
erty at once. The celebration of the
transfer will be delayed for the Celllo
Canal fstivities.
Several boats used the locks yester

common knowledge and love.
In his discussion of the barrier that
race prejudice throws between one and
his realization of the common life, the
speaker touched upon the forecasted
clash between the Orient and the Occi
dent on the Pacific Coast. He urged
that race tolerance, like religious tol
erance, is a matter of learning to know
the other race or the people of other
creeds as individuals.
Dr. Zueblin was introduced by Presi
dent C. J. Bu.shnell, of Pacific Univer
sity, who was formerly a pupil under
him in Chicago. He was entertained at
a luncheon given by Pacific University
at the University Club, and at that
time gave an address on "Twentieth

The Rose Festival Association will
be asked by the Portland Rose Society
for funds sufficient to put on a roae
show during the Festival, it was de
cided at the meeting of the executive
committee of the society at the Public
Library Monday. The members of the
committee did not favor the using of
the funds of the society for the show.
The president and secretary of the
society were empowered to take the
matter up with tho Rose Festival com
mittee and ask for 1500. in case the
second floor of the new Meier & Frank
building can be completed in time to
be used, or for 1S00 if it is necessary
to use the Armory for the show.
The Rosa Festival committee has of
fered $D00 to the Rose Society, but this
amount is not considered suttictent Dy
members of the society. They main
tain that the rose show, which has
been managed each year by the Rose
Society, has been one of the most im
portant features of the Rose Festival
and -it was asserted last night that the
Rose Festival committee should be
willing to give freely to the support
of tho exhibit.
A motion to put on a show to which
admission would lie-charged was lost,
as members believed that an admis
sion fee would keep many away from
tho exhibit.
Julius L. Meier, It was announced,
has promised the use of the second
floor of the new Meier & Frank build
ing for the rose exhibit in case the
building can be mad ready by that
time. In case that can be used it will
give a floor space of 100 by 200 feet,
which will be ample for all the needs
of the show. The Armory, it wi
