in Soprano Concert.
Eseetlently-Rendered Prosrraaim
Ulvea at Maltaaaaah Ballroom.
BT JOSEPH MACQUEEN.
IX A song recital, Multnomah hotel
ballroom Monday night. Miss Leah
Leaska, dramatic soprano, won the
hearts of her audience , by her ex
cellently rendered programme. Now
he has risen to heights of artistry,
both In declamation, expression and
pleasing voice. She Is so far on that
road to good fortune that It will be
interesting to watch the golden fu
ture awaiting this young Oregon
oprano In the larger world of music.
She leaves soon for New York, to
sing In England, France and Russia.
With Miss Leaska as singer ant
J. R. Hutchison as piano accompanist,
the audience was fortunate to hear
a rare musical duo whose niessags
vii welded Into one and ever spoke
with silver speech. Both Mr. Hutchi
son and Miss Leaska worked out that
programme together, at several re
hearsals, and both were letter per
fect and worked with fine 'sympathy
and understanding. Mr. Hutchison's
superb accompaniments were a great
treat to hear and enjoy.
In the Interval that has elapsed
since Mies Leaska last sang In this,
her native town, her voice has grown
larger and she has it under better
control. So much so, that her songs
were charmingly shaded and finished
last night, and there was never the
least hint of monotony. Of course,
Miss Leaska's voice is not yet of
finished prima donna stamp she Is
too young yet. In the period of
artistic growth that faces her. Miss
Leaska will do well to strive for
more diction. Werrenrath and Cecil
Fanning of New Tork are good ex
amples in this line to follow.
Miss Leaska sang a new pro
gramme In French and English anl
her renditions of the Brahms' "Faith
ful Love" and the Strauss' "Devo
tion" were notable for sincerity ani
finish of utterance. In English,
"Homing" (del Riego) and "We Two
Together" (Kernacban) have stirring
appeal. - Miss Leaska was heartily
received by her audience, and. the

TUX INCREASE EXPECTED
WASHINGTON EQUALIZERS
COMPLETE THEIR WORK.
. r
Bonus Law and Schools Make Nec
essary Higher Levies Than
Those of Last Year.
OLTMPIA, Wash., Sept 20. The
state equalization committee has an
nounced the completion of its work
on the aggregate equalized assessed
valuation of all property in the state.
The statement shows that the av
erage ratio of assessed value to the
actual value of property, as equalized
by the committee. Is 41.65 as against
42.54 per cent a year ago. The equal
ized assessed value of all property in
tho state is $1,177,239,240. Last year
It was $1,191,823,659. The shrinkage
was $16, 784,41. This shrinkage was
ir.ado up by loss of values as estim
ated by county assessors on real and
personal property, of approximately
$13,700,000 and a reduction on steam
and electric railroads and telegraph
lines of about $3,065,000.
The census of school children in the
state, as certified to the equalization
committee. Is 175,870, as against 363.
814 last year. The law requires the
equalization committee to levy a tax
which, together with Indirect rev
enues, wrll raise a sum equal to $20
per school child. This will require the
stats to raise by revenue for publio
school purposes $7,617,400. UntU the
committee can estimate Indirect rev
enues it will not be possible to figure
out the school tax levy, but with the
number of chlldlren Increased and ths
assessed valuation of the state low
ered, the committee predicted there
would be a material increase over the
levy of 4.8 miles made last year.
"There will be further increase In
tax levies over last year," added the
statement, "by reason of the action
of the legislature In fixing the aggre
gate tx levies for the support of
higher educational institutions at
2.84$ mills as against 1.5$ mills here
tofore levied for their support.
"There will be still further In
crease because of th one-mill bonus
bond retirement fund levy voted by
the people In 120.
."Other levies are fixed and not sub
ject to change by this committee, ex
cept the levies for the general fund
and for military purposes, both of
which probably will be decided upon
In the next few days."
