THS SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, FBHRIjAJETT 5, 1905. 19 WHEN THE STORM KING REIGNS Blizzards and Intense Cold Fail to Daunt Theatergoers in New York. NEW YORK, Jan. 31. (Special.) When the reports reach all points of the United States o a storm In New York, they come In the form of dispatches, and they are all pretty much alike, as far as headlines go, and yet the question is how many people really understand what such a storm as the one we are passing: through at present means In a city like New York, -without reference to Its cli mate. The cold is not the only thing lo be dreaded, notwithstanding- the fact that this is very intense, and In many oases dangerous to life and limb, but the heavy fall of snow, with the wind blowing- 50 or 60 miles an hour, can really not be described on the one hand nor understood on the other. In the flrst place, a storm like this blows up over night, and when there is no warn ing at bedtime, if one is a fresh-air fiend the consequences may be amus ing, to say the least. My first taste at the present storm occurred at about 7:20 A. M., when I made my way to the window to close it. Be it said liere, before I was fairly awake I found myself in at least eight inches of snow, which was blown in half way across the front room, covering over completely with about four solid Inches of snow a large Morris chair In the window and other furniture. It took at least three-quarters of an hour to Khovel-snow out of tho parlor so that it could be removed while it was dry enough and cold enough to keep it from flooding1 the place. I was fairly Burprised to hear of about 20 others who had tho same experience. This, however, is most trivial, in compari son to the hardship of getting around, nnd at no time was such a feeling: of thankfulness and appreciation sensed concerning the subway as upon this 'occasion, for this was the only means of transportation for many hours on "Wednesday. "When you stop to con Elder the enormous population who live from 10 to 15 miles away from their business, and that Is even not count ing those who live in the Oranges, In Brooklyn, on Long Island and all around in the suburbs. For these ithero is no recourse but to remain over night at some hotel, and upon oc casions of this kind the hotels are so overcrowded that people are forced to go from one to the other by the hour before being able to secure a room anywhere. Can any one Imagine what this means for the factory girls and Fhop girls who have only enough mon ey to depend upon to pay a 5 or 10 cent fare? The scenes around the sta tions, especially at the Long Island Railway, were really beyond descrip tion, with the hundreds who were hun--gry and shivering, and with no way to help themselves. "Vo are still not dealing with the paupers. That harrowing- tale need not be told at this moment. However, it is upon occa sions like this that the Salvation Army prove their tremendous value, since they serve assistance to the fullest ex tent of .their capability, both in the matter of housing and feeding this class of people under circumstances of this kind. One Is at the mercy of chance for all supplies, since milk can not arrive at Its destination except on trains from out of town, and when these are held up and milk bottles frozen and then broken, there Is sim ply a milk famine, and meat, butter, eggs, everything else, is open to the same possibilities. Nor is this all. for during the extreme cold the probabil ity is that the gas freezes, both in the gas range and for illumination pur poses. There are a few, but a very few. people, who are supplied with coal ranges. Thus it docs not need a vivid imagination to understand what may happen during these blizzards or storms, whatever you choose to call them. Now the most remarkable thing is In the face of such fearful hardship how is it possible for people to get to the theaters, and. still, they do. Of course, there Is a marked falling off in the audiences, but all audiences are large enough to make one marvel that even ten people were brave enough to come out for the sake of amusement. On the other hand, it is prob able, that the greater proportion of the audience consists upon such occasions of people who. being snowed up in New York, qiass the time away In this manner. It Is an ill wind that blows no one some good; at least this Is what some of the messenger boys thought on "Wednesday night, when Harry Payne Whitney, who held two boxes at Field's Theater, tele graphed in from Long Island that he and his party could not get In, but to see that the boys from the different offices should have the privilege of tho boxes. This was WAS JULIET A If So She Had Much Company, NOW that we are on this subject of the modern and "unpleasant" drama, it is Impossible to refrain from re marking upon Mr. Bronson Howard's con . tribution to the. Herald's symposium of last Sunday on what it called the "prob lem play." If any one equals Mr, How ard's knowledge of English stage plays of the 19th century, he does not come to mind: and Mr. Howard's knowledge Is as analytic, as philosophic and as deep ly human as it is wide. What he knows about the evolution of tastes In the play house, the gradual development of un derstanding and sympathy on the part of the actual public, would make an Im !ortant chapter In the history of our re cent civilization. Highly characteristic is his opening re mark that the very term ''problem play," is a misnomer. Invented to fit plays that raise a social question, it is now applied not only to plays that. Instead of raising a question, enforce a thesis, but also to all plays treating illegitimate love. In the strict sense of the word, as Mr. Howard wittily remarks, the only one qf Plnero's plays that may be called a problem play is "The Wife Without a Smile," and here the problem, judging by the reports of the English critics, Is what in the world it all means If it means anything! But to Mr. Howard's own words! "There has never been a period of the drama, in any age or country, from classic Greece down, when illegitimate love was not treated in a very large proportion of the plays produced. In order, therefore, to bring the term within useful limitations I should define it something in this way: 'Problem play A play dealing with the emotions of a fool woman of the late nine teenth and early twentieth centuries. "I think this definition will be. In effect, though not. of course, in form, the defi nition of the term adopted by future his torians of the English drama." Ever-Interesting Problem Plays". From this point of view the problem play is extremely Interesting at the present moment, because the "fool woman" still exists in droves sufficiently numerous to form an important class in our society. There are too many of them off the stage to be Ignored on the stage. I cannot Illustrate the exact meaning of the term "fool woman" better than by calling attention to the "fool girl." who almost dominated the stage for centuries because she was so numerous In real life. I refer to the seduced girl, over whom en tire audiences, once wept, and who can hardly squeeze a tear now from the back row of the igallcrj". Mrs. Inchbald, as early as 1P0S. said that this "unfTtrtunale" had then ceased to Interest people if sbo belonged to culti done, and about 20 messenger boys In re lays enjoyed the show by the thought fulness of Mr. Whitney. One might write for hours and still not vdescribe a tenth of the incidents which face everyone who lives in New York during an occasion of this kind, and, whereas, for the greater part telegraphic dispatches exaggerate on one side, they fail to give an adequate idea on the other. Upon former occasions I have given de scriptions of the auction sales of antiques and of private houses, which occupy the attention of a certain portion of New York's population. This year there have been more than ever before, since a very large number of the St. Louis exhibits were brought to New York and sold by auction after holding the art exhibitions, but not within years has a sale awakened the degree of curiosity and Interest as the one which is on this week, consisting of the sale of the furnishings and effects of Mrs. Frederick Nellsen, mother-in-law of Reginald Vanderbllt, together with the household furnishings of Frederick Geb hardt, who is a brother of Mrs. Nellsen. To say nothing of the things on exhibition, the sights in the auction-rooms would have furnished volumes for the comic col umns and the conversation of those who thronged to the sale was a revelation of human nature, or, rather, of the weakness of human nature. One beldame In particu lar attracted the attention of every eye in the auction-room as she sailed in en veloped in sealskin and diamonds, to say nothing of an air of supreme satisfaction and porcine supremacy. As might have been expected, her eye was attracted to the cheapest picture in the room, which may or may not have belonged to the col lection of Mrs. Nellsen and Mr. GebhardL After the limit of $5 she modestly bellowed her willingness to give $5. Someone in the audience, taking the cue, much to the amusement of the auctioneer, raised her two or three, and the lady trotted an even pace, when finally it was knocked down to her at an exorbitant figure. In a delicate stage whisper she murmured: "Ain't that a bargain? I tell you I know good things when I see them." And to tne edification of all present, she an nounced In the same sort of a stage whis per that she was going to sell some of the things in her house and buy up half the treasures that graced the home of "Reg gie's" mother-in-law. This is only one example and one type of the people that you meet at the auction sales, which really form a distinct amusement, apart from the art atmosphere Inherent to them. The musical cven of the week was the debut of Eugene D'AlbcrL Carnegie Hall was crowded to Its fullest capacity upon the occasion of a concert at which M. Ysaye conducted for D'Albert and D'AI bert conducted for Ysaye. No one who is interested in the musical advancement of New York can fall to deplore such sensational methods, as the concert was far from satisfactory, and at best It fla vored more of the circus than It did of the concert. D'Albert Is a colossal artist, and a man who stands at the greatest height In his own line, which Is as pian ist or as composer. The Influence of such sensationalism Is. as I stated before, a bad one, and nothing could be more inartistic than to hear the Beethoven Kreutzer sonata in Carnegie Hall, even by such artists as D'Albert and Ysaye, because a sonata is chambor music, and chamber music Is Intimate or It Is noth ing. As a matter of showing the attitude of other great artists to this I will quote Franz Kneisel, whose quartet concerts in New York City are completely sold out to subscribers to the full capacity of Men delssohn Hall. Upon numerous occasions there have been applications for one or two hundred, more, than the hall In this condition will hold. There Is a manner of enlarging Mendelssohn Hall that Is to say, the walls can be thrown open In such a manner as to seat from one to two hundred more, but even this Mr. Kneisel has never been willing to do. Hay ing: "I am sorry, extremely sorry, but the acoustics would not be as perfect as they are under the present conditions, and I would rather lose that amount of money than to take from the musical qualities of the concert." But Mr. Knei sel Is a gigantic musician, and not a sensational artist. To such Influences as his is due the growth of music In this country, not to the advent of one, two or a dozen sensationalists. Owing to the prevailing storm D'Albert was unable to All some of his out-of-town engagements, and that It will not be easy to replace these dates may be understood from the fact that he is booked as solid ly as it is possible to do, and, consequent ly complications may arise. He will be the next soloist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and great interest centers upon this appearance among those who are really musical. Much more interest Indeed is shown than In FOOL WOMAN? for the Drama Is Full of Them. vated society. In other words, to be "unfortunate" merely showed a weakness of intellect, and so was undramatic. In the latter part of the 19th century, and first in America, about TO years after Mrs. Inchbald's discovers', the seduced girl, even of the less culth-ated and the lowest classes of social life, lost her pub lic interest. Since that time she has been regarded simply as a "fool girl" and useless to the dramatic writer except for merely collateral purposes In a play. The higher evolution of the married woman in real life has been and Is going on rapidly. The proper dignity of her sex is asserting Itself. If she has a brutal or unsympathetic husband we sympathize with her breaking heart, but we begin already to suspect that she is a fool lacking the natural dignity of her sex If on that account she turns to the love of another man. We are becoming weary of the woman who does this, and she will soon be merely the 'sporadic "fool wo man"of social life, relegated to the limbo of popular Indifference, where the "fool girl" has been waiting for her more than a quarter of a century. That Is a blast of common sense for you, as fresh and stimulating as it is ex perienced and wise! Iris Is a fool woman. Hedda Gabler Is a fool woman. Both, be it noted, are freely granted to be ex tremely interesting. But neither Is likely to hold the attention of the world very long. Paula Tanqueray Is a very differ ent sort of person. Hers is the oldest of the professions, and the most universally practiced. As to Sudermann's Marlkke, at least a doubt Is permissible. She is a fool woman, but with a difference. About real passion, sheer and unsentlmental Ized, there is an Inherent nobility which in our hearts we all Instinctive ly recognize. Was Juliet a fool girl to consent to a clandestine marriage? Was Othello a fool husband to believe the tales of an obvious villain against his spotless wife? Was Lear a fool father to give over his kingdom, and to his two villainous and hypocritical daughters? To Puck, it may be re membered, all mortals were fools. Be It so! Shakespeare understood thnt th j truest and worthiest path to the sym- puiny or an audience was to give his characters the frailties of thCIr kind. He made only one stainless hero; and Henry V. colossal in all things. Is a co lossal failure, on the stage and in lit erature. After all. this question of fool or not fool is hardly the final question. What endures in the drama is passion, as piration, sin. So long as it is true, and of universal a I mm small difference whether it is made the supject oi poetic or realistic drama comedy or farce. John Corbln in the New 4York Sun, his debut which artistically must be re garded as unfortunate. D'Albert will be heard as far West as San Francisco and probably Portland. Or. It will be interesting to the many friends of Mark Hambourg in this coun try to hear that he has a younger broth er, Jan. a pupil of Ysaye, who Is said to be a very fine violinist. In Germany the brothers are to appeacjolntly in concert. If the opening of the week presented a great concert with D'Albert and Ysaye. the close was notable for the last pair of concerts conducted by Safonoff, the great Russian, who has aroused New York to the highest pitch of admiration by his re markable qualities as conductor. On Friday afternoon and Saturday night Safonoff again demonstrated his great art and his reading of the Pathetic Sym phony of Tscnalkowsky was something that can never be described In words. This was the piece de resistance. How ever, his marvelous reading of the Bee thoven Second Symphony was quite on a par with the Russian work, and its forcefulness and virility were fairly over powering. In the presence of two such tremendous symphonies as the Beethoven Second symphony and the Tscnalkowsky Sixth Symphony, the Schubert-Liszt "Wanderer Fantasia" for piano and or chestra, played by Jose Da Motta, was singularly out of place, and for some es timate of this new pianist I will wait un til he is heard under different auspices, which may serve to Judge him by himself and not as a part of such a concert as would enlist the services of such noble Interpreters of art as a Paderewskl, a Hoffman, a Bauer or a D'Albert. EMILIE FRANCES BAUER. Up-to-Date Etiquette of Stationery Card Uagen That Are Not Ap proved In Kantex-a Cities. H ERE are the latest principles of the etiquette of stationery, as laid down by an authority on the sub- ject: All visiting cards, from the nursery to a bishop's palace, are of plain white board, absolutely without ornamentation. No crest, motto or gilt edge may appear. . Hand-written cards have not been In vogue since the Empress Eugenie set the vogue for engraving, which had only ap peared tentatively up to her reign as a fashion authority. A man's card is never so large as a woman's. He is of less social importance. The correct man's card this season measures 3 Inches by 1 inches. It car ries the name written out in full and the club name In the lower left hand corner. The cards of matrons and spinsters are at last of one size, which the spinster regards as a triumph of persistence over vanity. That former little maidenly card looked as though she were compelled to admit her matrimonial failure in life. Today, with her card 3 by 2V Inches, she Is announced with the same ceremony as her mother or younger married sister. Her name Is written out n'li unless she is the eldest daughter. Then only "Miss" precedes the surname. If the name Is Jones, as sometimes hap pens In the best regulated families, her mother's name would be in full, as Mrs. Mortimer Stuyvesant Jones; her grand mother, the dowager, merely Mrs. Jones: the eldest sister, plain Miss Jones, with out one redeeming smart preface, and her own. Miss Margaret Stuyvesant Webb Jones. Cards are a third larger than they were four years ago. when Initials were permissible to accommodate this embar rassment of riches In family middle names. Nearly all cards for metropolitan duty carry the address in the lower right hand corner, and at home days in the lower left hand corner. The address of a coun try house gives the name of the place and railway station or the street and station, though the name of place is much more swagger. For formal affairs the debutante has no Individual card. Her name in full Is engraved on her mother's card directly under the mother's name. It Is only for her personal use in sending gifts, oc casional calls and small courtesies that she appears unchaperoned. Where a mother with a family of daughters is receiving, all the names are engraved in order of age on an oblong Invitation card, or after the mother's name is merely "the Misses Jones." If there Is a debutante daughter with two older sisters still without the ring they appear as "the Misses" In one line and the younger girl on a separate line. Visiting cards are used only In sending Invitations of the most general or In formal nature. For musicales. a dinner of a dozen or so, a smart formal after noon reception for a debutante tea or a dinner dance, oblong cards are used with EMPIRE PRICES AH Matinees, 10, 15 aad One Solid Week, Starting Sunday Matinee Today, February 5 OVER NIAGARA If You've Never Seen the Falls.Here'sYouT Chance.

For ultra formal elaborate dancing re ception, evening muslcale or very large dinners the folded note invitation Is used, with some expression of plcusure at the thought of meeting the guest. The question of titles on cards is of little embarrassment to women in this 'country. There Is Just one rule; they do not use their husband's titles on their visiting cards, unless It Is a dual card. A husband must go with the title. "Bishop and Mrs. Sloane" or merely "Mrs. In IUal Sloane;" "Col. and Mrs. Jones," or no title. These twin cards are useful for sending regrets or paying formal calls when there are men In the family, or In sending gifts. Church dignitaries and military men may use their titles before their names or the full name without prefix and the title in full under or in the lower right hand corner. Most men over 21 prefer a simple card, unless there are wives to be gratified. Cards for nurserjiand are so largely in vogue that they may not be ignored. Tiny scraps of cardboard with baby's name and address and" date of birth are sent with invitation to christening parties, or accompany large cards of announce ments. 'A notion new and useful is the cards of appreciation to be used during the first stages of mourning and cards of con gratulation for births, engagements, etc. There Is a blank space for the name and one sentiment for many occasions. The newest model for engraving cards here is French script. The Parisian pre fers a shaded Roman script, but neither is so artistic as the shaded Old English, which Is still In vogue. The French srlpt Is thin and cheap looking and very expensive. In stationery, paper six inches by seven fits the fashionable oblong envelope ex 1 actly when folded once. A delicate water gray called spray, that Is just off the actual white, Is better far than white or cream. Note paper Is possibly a fifth smaller. But with this extreme of practical sense In stationery are mixed up all sorts of fads In addresses, In monograms and crests. The new monograms are extremely small and very decorative. They look like a delicate compliment to the fad for crests. Many of the dies for colored crests run as high as ?S0, some up to $100. The simpler Initials may cost $3 or 523.
