ASHDXGTON, May 9. Special Cor
respondence.) Washington Is gay
with the life and brightness of her
Spring season. These months at the capi
tal are attracting each year a larger
number of visitors from at home and
abroad.
Two roval tiarties were entertained dur
ing the week, their presence being made J
the occasion for a revival of a semi-official
round of gayety. A musicale at thB
White House, a large afternoon reception
at the home of ex-Secretary of State and
Mrs. John W. Foster, a dinner "for men
only" at the Chinese Legation, and an
elaborate luncheon, with President and
Mrs. Roosevelt among the guests, at Sec
retary Hay's residence on La Fayette
Square, were some of the notable events
in honor of Prince Pu'Lun and his associ
ates from China.
Informal luncheons and small dinners
marked the intervening days at the White
House, where, on Saturday of the same
week, the German. Princes and their party.
were entertained at luncheon before they
witnessed the President press the tiny
button In the East Room, and thereby set
in motion all the wonderful machinery
that goes to make up the world's greatest
Exposition in St Louis.
Baroness von Sternburg Is In mourning
for her father, the late Mr. Langham, of
California, and in consequence the dinner
at the German Embassy for the royal
visitors was a private affair, making up
in cordiality what it lacked In brilliancy
of numbers. The guests were Prince
Hohenlohe-Schlllingfurst and his sister,
the Princess Elizabeth; the Princess von,
Ratibor, Prince Karl von Ratlbor, Count
von Ratimerskirsch, Madame Borgnis and
Mile. Borgnis, who with Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Wlborg, of Cleveland, O.-, compose
the royal suite.
Prince Hohenlohe, who is a noted sports
man and hunter, made a tour of Washing
ton on horseback In company with the
German Ambassador, one of the best rid
ers in the diplomatic corps. Prince Rati
bor is Governor of a Prussian province;
his nephew, the hereditary prince, an of
ficer in the Emperor's Gardes des Corps,
and it was particularly In their honor
that the Austrian Ambassador and Bar
oness Hengelmueller entertained on Sun
day evening at one of the most perfectly
appointed dinners of the season.
Jewels, gorgeous array and choice floral
decorations were features of the occasion.
Apple and cherry blossoms were artisti
cally combined with palms in the decora
tion of the drawing-rooms, and in the dining-room
were used with ribbons In the
national colors of Austria-Hungary. Cov
ers were laid for 24, and in addition to the
foreign guests there were present Mr. and
Mrs. GIrard Foster, of New York; Baron
and Baroness von Glskra, Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas "F. Walsh, General O'Brien, Miss
Warder, Miss King, Count Hoyps. of the
Austrian Embassy, and Mr. Gutowski, of
the Russian Embassy.
Fruit blossoms, a la the Oriental cus
tom, are being used quite extensively at
smart entertainments. They formed the
keynote in the decorations at the last Cab
inet dinner and also at the Foster recep
tion. They were particularly appropriate
at the last named as the Chinese Prince
was then the guest of honor. As an en
semble, the affair gave the royal Oriental
a delightful picture of Washington so
ciety, amid almost Eastern surroundings,
as the Foster residence contains rare
curios and valuable embroidered draperies
that were presented to America's noted
diplomat on the occasion of his visit to
the Far East
Here also was the Prince made to feel
most at homo by the presence of Colonel
Thomas Symons, the President's aid-decamp,
one of the few Americans who
speaks pure Chinese.
Other happy entertained visitors at the
capital at this time are the young Roose
velt boys, who were brought here from
school with an attack of mumps. During
their convalescence they were almost con
stantly with their mother, going for
walks, drives, to Congress, and to oc
casional places of amusement. They went
to the Strauss concert and heard the
Bostonlans In "Robin Hood," with Mr.
De Koven, the composer and their friend.
within earshot
Accompanied by the President, the fam
ily joined several Army officers and wit
nessed the final drill of the Fifteenth Cav
alry and the Fourth Battery of Field Ar
tillery at Fort Jdyer. The children are
veritably "chips of the old block," for no
more interested persons watched the
troopers as they drilled for a week's en
gagement at Madison-Square Garden un
der the auspices of the Military Athletic
League of America. The men wore the
olive drab service uniform and the new
service cap, which Is so like a Scotch cap
that it makes them look quite English.
It Is only a matter of looks, however, as
they were thoroughly American in their
work, winning applause at every round.
These drills have become a feature of
the Spring season and are looked forward
to with much pleasant anticipation by so
ciety folk and the people generally.
In the artistic world, the 14th annual
exhibition of the Washington Art Asso
ciation, in the Hemicircle of the Corcoran
Art Gallery, was an Interesting event
The pictures hung were the best collec
tion seen In years and included the won
derful Van Zorn portrait of Representa
tive HItt and several canvases that had
received honors In the recent exhibit In
the Pennsylvania Art Society in Philadel
phia. Conspicuous among these was the
Madonna, a prize-winner by Miss Mary
Cassatt the talented sister of President
A. J. Cassatt of the Pennsylvania Rail
road. The American Water-Color Society
has its annual exhibition in the American
Art Galleries, New York City. These an
nuals have proved a favorite show-place
for Washington artists. This year the
Capital will be represented by W. H.
Holmes. Miss Bertha Perrie, Mrs. Carl
Smith, Hobart Nichols, Mr. Gill and Miss
Tiers.
Mr. Holmes, whose splendid picture of
a woman in white on the seashore was
distinctly the picture of the year at a re
cent exhibition, is one of the most ver
satile men In Washington. A writer of
force and ability, he also is an authority
on certain scientific subjects and head
curator for the National Museum, besides
being Chief of the Bureau of American
Ethnology. In the latter position he suc
ceeded the late Major Powell, who was
known to history as the pioneer in re
search In the Grand Canon, and might
almost be said to have discovered It so
unknown had been its wonders before his
expedition there In the early '70s.
Students of the Corcoran Art School
who are not sufficiently advanced to have
their pictures hung at annual exhibitions,
are having fun of their own in the room
across the hall from the regular exhibit
Visitors who come to the one must see
the other. The regular show Is viewed
with seriousness and awe; the irregular
one brings shouts of laughter; so ridicu
lous are some of the burlesques of the
more prominent paintings in the "an
nual." "The Sheltered Moon" is a picture In
the fake show that attracts undue atten
tion. It represents a gray poster with a
large cloud in the sky and a moonlight
effect Below the "painting" hangs a
string, marked "Pull." When the request
is compiled with, a-bright yellow moon,
with smiling face, comes up and beams
upon the onlookers.
While there has been a thinning out
in Congressional circles, the ranks have
JLnot been materially depleted, as many
MAY BE BRIDE OF SENATOR CLARK, OF MONTANA
J-'?'N"i.jS"2s $: V3v
MISS ADA LA CHAPPECXE. '
-3f. Is reported that the purpose of the trip to Europe of Senator Clark, the Mon
tana copper magnate, is to marry Miss Ada La Chappelle, his protege, who has.
been receiving a musical education in Europe at the Senator's expense. Senator
Clark's interest in Miss La Chappelle dates from the time, six years, ago, when
her voice attracted his attention and caused him to assume the expense of her edu
cation, -which was begun in Washington. Miss Chappelle is 23 years old, and is the
daughter of a Butte, Mont, physician, who died eight years ago. She has several
brothers and sisters in Montana. Her mother lives In Minneapolis. It was said re
cently that she, contemplated a grand opera career under the stage name "Montana."
Senators and members have children in
school here, and others are remaining to
enjoy the rest and beauty of the Capital,
without official cares. Some are busy
with committee work and some have gone
on the Dolphin with Secretary Moody of
the Navy on a tour of Inspection of naval
stations in Cuba and the Southern States.
The Dolphin, primarily the President's
boat, has been at anchor at the Washing
ton Navy Yard most of the Winter await
ing orders, and the ofllcers and crew wel
comed the opportunity of going on a short
cruise with "pleasant company" aboard.
Originally the property of a New York
yachtsman-member of the 400, the ship" was
madejnto a torpedo-boat for service dur
ing the Spanish-American War. It was
not in the fight, and after peace was de
clared was changed back Into a floating
palace fit for the President as well as for
the proverbial King.
So much has been said about the use
of a Government boat by the President
that Mr. Roosevelt has made little use of
It, and Mrs. Roosevelt has made but two
THE DOMAIN OF MUSIC
The continued and ever increasing inter
est in the weekly concerts given by Ellers
Piano House Is the most flattering tes
timonial which the instruments used can
receive. Music of the mechanical, hand
organ type, no matter how produced,, loses
its Interest as soon as the novelty has
worn off. But though Pianola concerts
have been given In Portland for years,
attendance by Portland's most musical
and cultured people Is constantly Increas
ing. The Instruments used are the piano,
played by means of the .Pianola, the
Aeolian Orchestrelle and Aeolian Pipe Or
gan. The resultant music possesses that
human quality, which holds and charms
and which can only be produced by the
human hand, and Instruments of ex
tremely flne mechanism and delicate ad
justment Last Thursday evening, Aeolian Hall
and the adjoining room were crowded
with people, who enjoyed not only a
very fine Instrumental programme, but
also had the pleasure of hearing for the
first time in Portland, a very promising
young singer, Mrs. Anna Selkirk Norton,
of Albany. Mrs. Norton not only pos
sesses a very exceptional contralto voice,
but a wonderfully artistic temperament
which was evident In her singing, as well
as the fine training which her voice has
received. Her selections "An Irish Folk
Song," by Foote and Vannah's "Good
bye, Sweet Day," showed her fresh,
sweet voice to most excellent advantage.
The accompaniments as usual, were
nlaved by means of the Pianola. It was
Mrs. Norton's first experience in sing
ing to such accompaniment, and she ex
pressed herself as simply delighted with
It.
It was music festival time In Cincinnati, O.,
last week, and from all accounts the occasion
must have been a great success, although the
extended criticisms have not yet come to hand.
Since 1S73, when the first of these biennial
festivals was held, they have been among the
most important features of muslc-maklng In
this country- The festival opened last Wednes
day evening with & rendition of the Bach
B minor Mass. It is stated that this was the
sixth complete performance the great work has
had since it was written 170 years ago. It
has "been given once before at the Cincinnati
festivals, but for this year Mr. Thomas made
unusual preparations, and the orchestral score
was played by e. band In which the proper
proportion Is preserved between the stringed
and the wood wind instruments. The chorus
of 500 attended to the choral numbers, and'
the solos were entrusted to Miss Agnes Nlch
olls. Mme. Schumann-Helnk, William Green
and Watklns Mills. A miscellaneous pro
gramme was offered Thursday afternoon, and
Friday night "The Dream of Gerontlus," by
Elgar. formed the principal feature of the con
cert In this work Miss Muriel Foster had the
solo music for the meszo soprano. A list ot
miscellaneous selections was given yesterday
afternoon. The festival closed last sight with
the Beethoven Solemn Mass in D major, and
the Ninth Symphony. Mr. Thomas had with
him the entire Chicago orchestra, numbering
100 men.
In a recent letter from Miss Grace Wilton,
the well-known Portland planlste. comes fur
ther proof of her success in her having been
offered '& position as teacher In the artistic
piano forte school of Victor Helnze, one ot
America's foremost teachers of the Leschetlzky
method. Miss Wilton's success reflects great
credit on Miss Elizabeth Patterson Sawyers,
also of the Leschetlzky School, with whom
Miss Wilton studied the past Winter at the
Be Pauw School of Music, in Indiana, her
studies Including piano, counterpoint, fugue,
form, history 'and German. Since early In
April. Miss Wilton has studied In Chicago with
Victor Helnze. who predicts for the young
planlste an artistic career.

last Wednesday evening at the Grand Opera
House, Salem, and it was quite a successful
affair. A Salem newspaper. In speaking of the
recital, says: "Mr. Graham displayed wonder
ful talent and his numbers were executed in
a manner worthy of a master. Mrs. Sheldon
has a strong soprano voice capable of reach
ing a very high register and preserving its
volume. She was heard In seven numbers, all
captivating and pleasing. Her rendition of
"You and I" and 'Ave Maria were especially
beautiful. Mrs. Warren E. Thomas, the ac
companlste, executed the difficult compositions
with ease and grace." The programme: Ro
manzo, A minor, Op. 42 (Max Bruch); "Les
Filles de Cadix" (Dellbes); "Irish Folk Song"
(Foote);"Lynnovo's Song" (Kjerulf); "Xou
and I" (Lehmann); "Sweetheart Thy Lips
Are Touched With Flame" (Chadwick); Intro
duction and adagio from 4th Concerto Op. 31
(Vieuxtemps); "Doris," with violin obllgato
(Nevin); "Ave Maria," with violin obllgato
(Gounod); Romanzo, F major. Op. 50 (Beetho
ven), and Spanish Tanz, Op. 21 (Pablo de
Sarasato).
The ranks of that small group of Irrepres
sible patriots, the nationalist composers, have
lost an enthusiastic and loyal member in the
sudden death of Autonln Dvorak. Their ranks
were already sufficiently sparse, and in a hasty
muster the names cf Eduard Grieg, In Norway;
Balaklseff, Rlmsky-Korsakoff, Cesar Cut.
Alexander Glagounow, Anatole Llndoff and
Antolne Arensky, In Russia; Gustave Char
pentler, in France (with Vincent d'Indy as
honorary member), aro the most conspicuous
of European composers. Despite the many
fine qualities of his chamber music, concertos,
symphonies and other works In classical form,
it seems probable that it Is through his lyrics,
his choral works and his unhesitating Bohe
mian music that Dvorak will be best known to
the musical world at large. In Bohemia there
can be. small doubt that It wilL be Dvorak, the
nationalist who will remain In their, hearts,
the' patriot whom they admired and respected
enough to make a member ot Parliament who
served his country as effectively as a states
man, by showing the world her dances, her
songs and her fairy tales.
