New York City have become famous, none holds a more exalted place In the public esteem than the Knelsel String Quartet. Its members, formerly soloists of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, arc artists of the highest ability. It was in Novem ber, 18S5, that this organization first came Into existence, and on account of the desire of Henry L. Higginson that cham ber music should be brought Into more prominent notice. The leader of this quartet, Franz Knelsel, is a Roumanian by birth, and showed marked musical ability at the very beginning of his career. Graduating at the Vienna Conservatory, be made his first appearance with the famous Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Decem ber 21, 1SS2, and was soon after offered the position of solo violinist in the or chestra of the Imperial Court Theater. After he was associated with the famous Bllse Orchestra of Berlin as concert melster, a position of the highest honor, and which had been held before him by such eminent artists as Ysaye, Hallr and Thompson. The world-renowned Knelsel Quartet will be heard at the Marquam Grand Theater April 29, under the direction of Misses Lois Steers and Wynn Coman. CONCERT TOURS PLANNED. J. Adrian Epping to Head New Or ganization. , Plans have been completed by the management of the Western Academy of Music, Elocution and Art, Second and Morrison streets, to organize a concert company to tour the Pacific Northwest each season, William ML Rasmus, UL Lester Paul, Miss M. Bode, Miss Petronella Conrfblly, Miss Reatha Fowler and Miss Mollie Reynolds will be the members of this organization, and J. Adrian Epping, the well-known baritone, will be featured. Distant as Portland is from the great centers of population In the East, where large patronage attracts the world's greatest artists, this city has a growing musical community, and the climate and environment are favorable to the growth and advancement of good singing voices. Often home sing ers hold their own with imported celebrltes. The recent song recital given in the auditorium of the West ern Academy of Music by J. Adrian Ep ping, principal of the vocal department, and his assistants, is a case in point. The programme contained numbers calculated to make demands upon the technique of the most skillful vocal ist, yet the critical audience was en thusiastic in approval of the rendition of every selection. Portland people are just coming to realize what an admirable singer Mr. Epping is. For years he has denied himself to the concert stage. During the past live years his time and ener gies have been devoted to building up of the Western Academy of Music, of which he is the principal. This insti tution is now the foremost school of music and elocution In the Pacific Northwest, and with more time at his disposal the public will have the privi lege more often of hearing Mr. Ep ping in classical concerts.

Anton Horner, of the Philadelphia Orches tra, and who Is in the first rank among liv ing horn players, has refused the annual offer of the Boston Orchestra a life posi tion, with a pension following. Emit Schnecker has gone to London as principal harpist for the grand opera season at Covent Garden. Conductor Fritz Scheel is to pay a long-delayed visit to Europe, sailing to morrow. Tchalkowsky relates that his brother Peter, the composer, never conducted one of his pieces well unless he felt sure that the orchestra players liked it. A look of indifference, a yawn, put him out of coun tenance and spoiled everything. This was why the greatest of his works, the "Pa thetic" symphony, made but an indifferent impression at Its first performance. October 10, 1S93. The players did not seem to care for it. the performance was Indifferent and as a consequence the general critical verdict was that it hardly equaled the composer's earlier works. Since then all the world has discovered that the "Pathetlque" Is one of the world's masterpieces; orchestral musi cians love to play it as much as audiences love to hear It. The last meeting of the New England Con servatory "Club was -held at the home of Mrs. E. C. Goddard. Mill street. Mrs. Grace Watt Ross had charge o the programme. "Bos ton Music and Music Composers," which was as follows: Paper. Mrs. Davis; (a) "Ecstack" (b) "The Fairies' Lullaby" (Mrs. H. H. A. Beach). Mrs. Linn; Minuet Italian (Mrs. H. 11. A. Beach). Mrs. Schultz: (a) "Love Me If I Live" (Foote). (b) "O, Let Night Speak of Thee" (Chadwlck), Mrs. Goddard; (a) "Beam From Yonder Star" (Fredrick Field Bullard). (b) "Slumber Song" (Homer Norrlsh Mrs. Shlllock; (a) "Request." (b) "Gay Little Dandelion" (Chadwlck). Mrs, Piper; "Pierrot and Pierette" (Foote). Mri Mackie; "Pauline Pavlovna" (reading from T. B. Aldrlch). Miss Forsyth. Mrs; Bird, of Salem, and Mrs. Pruette, of Pen dleton, out-of-town members, were present. Nowadays, since Frltzl Schcff has become prima donna of operetta, ehe Is as much In demand for concerts as ever. Charles B. Dil lingham, her manager, has to refuse two or three proposals a week for her to sing at pri vate muslcales. Managers believe that such appearances keep people away from the thea ter. If they hear Frltzl or Edna May sing their little songs In private, they will not be so anxious to go to the theater. There are a great many reasons why the singers of great reputation do not like to sing In private. One of therw was shown In the case of a recent musicalc, when the hostess wrote to ask the Etar If she would please wear a pale greon gown. "Very pale. If you please." the hostess added, "as that Is the color of my music-room. I had a woman sing there once, and she would wear yellow. It was horrid." This woman wore white, and the hostess was- reconciled, but not satisfied. She thought she ought to be able to get all -he wanted for $2250. Although several weeks have yet to elapse before the Covent Garden opera season, London, begins, the plans of the manage ment are already In order. Two cycles will be given early In the season of Wagner's "Der Ring des Nlbelungen." whilo "Die Melsterslngcr" and "Tristan" are also In the programme. As for novelties, it is in tended to produce for the first time at Covent Garden DIordano's opera "Andrea Chenler." whilo Puccini's "Madame Butter fly," Svhich was thought to be on the tapis a year ago, will be given this season In its revised form adopted by the composer sub sequently to the work's production in Italy. Another wgjk entirely new to 'London is an operatic version by Franco Lconl of "The Cat and Cherub," the grim play which Cali fornia sent to London a few years ago. Two interesting revivals are also promised. Meyerbeer's "Huguenots" and Donizetti's "Don Pasquale," the latter of which has not been heard in London for a quarter of a century. Tho musical event of the week was the violin recital of Fritz Krelsler, which took place last Tuesday evening at the Empire Theater before an audience that about half filled that building. It is a pity that such a great treat was not more fully taken advan tage of. as it is not possible that a violinist of Krelsler"s caliber will, again visit Portland this season. With the exception of two 'numbors. Kreisler"s programme was serious, technical, somber, mystic. His tone was de lightful, and was the best offering he gave. Krelsler Is easily one of the greatest violin ists of this ago. His rival. Ysaye. thus speaks of Vleuxtemps: "It Is doubtful If How Sickness Starts Most forms of sickness start with the inside nerves. Indigestion, sour stom ach, heartburn, dyspepsia weak kidneys, diabetes, Brlght's Disease Liver irregu laritiesheart irregularities bowel Irreg ularities all of these aliments and the aliments which they.. In turn, bring on, are due directly to derangements' of cer tain nerve centers. Understand first that wc have two en tirely separate nerve systems. When we walk or talk or act, we call Into play a certain set of nerves nerves which obey our mental commands. That Is why the" arm can be raised, or the mouth opened, or the eye shut, at the slightest desire. That Is why your fingers can delicately pick up a pin one moment, and hold a heavy hammer the next. But these are not the nerves we are to consider here. There Is another set of nerves which control and govern and actuate the heart and the stomach, the kidneys and tho liver and all of the vital functions. You canhot control these nerves. By no su preme effort of mind can you make your heart stop or start nor can you even make It vary by a single beat a minute. And so with the stomach and tho liver and the kidneys and the bowels they are automatic they do their work at a cer tain set speed, whether you are awake or asleep whether you will or not. It is on these inside nerves that life and health depends. So long as these nerves perform their proper duties we are well and strong. When they fall, we know it by the inevitable symptoms stomach, heart, liver, kidney troubles. Aftd these troubles have no other origin, ever, than In these same nerves. For the stomach, the heart, the liver, the kidneys, have no power of their own, no self-control. They owe their every Impulse .to the Inside nerves. The nerves are the masters. The organs their slaves. But the most Interesting part about the Inside nerves Is the bond of sympathy whlch exists between all centers and branches of this groat automatic system. The center, which, for Instance, con trols the stomach. Is known to science as trie "solar plexus." The heart center Is called the "cardiac plexus." The kidney center, the "renal plexus." Yet It Is a well-known fact that In prizefights, a so lar plexus blow Instantly stops the heart, although Its usual operations concern only Dr. Shoop's VIeuxtemps ever had a superior as a teacher, for his knowledge of the violin, his match less virtuosity and his profound musician ship placed him in a class by himself. His methods were unlike those of other teach ers. He possessed the rare talent of being able to impart his knowledge to others. His patience was sublime. Side by side with the classical masterpieces studied the works of Faganlnl, for which, as virtuoso pieces. VIeuxtemps entertained the highest re spect." Benson B. Fordyce, an eccentric recluse, lately died at his home near Smtthfield, Pa., and not even after his death did occentrlcl tles cease. All through his lonely life the only pleasure that Fordyce had was listen ing to the singing of the negroes who la bored about the coke ovens. He was pas sionately fond of music, and frequently at tempted to compose songs. On his death bed Fordyce stipulated that the money he had left should be paid over to John Smoth ers, a negro. Smothers was to use the en tire amount, about $100, with which to pay negroes to march from Fordyce's home to the cemetery ahead of the hearse, singing all the time as they walked. The funeral was attended by almost 1000 people. Smoth ers fulfilled his part of the contract, and a choir of 100 voices marched to the cemetery, a distance of over four miles. Not a step was made without musical accompaniment, and all kinds of music was rendered, from Methodist hymns to rag-time. After the interment the negroes held a barbecue. Some years agd Fordyce had a monument erected for himself In the cemetery In which his body was Interred. "There is so much more to singing than tha mere possession of a voice." says Emma Earaes. 'There aro young women studying in Paris who have good voices, answering all the requirements of a difficult art, for whom one must foresee failure In a public career., Thty simply lack temperament. It is one of the hardest things to define, and one of the easiest attributes to feel In a personality. You hear someone sing whose voice Is true and resonant, but that person does not Interest you; in fact, bores you. You do not care If you never hear that voice again. No. I do not mean because the singer is 111 looking. Perhaps she is even pretty. But she Is not attractive In, tho unmistakable way of the person of tem perament. Say she has no emotional power. On the whole. It Is better to have tempera ment than a robust organ to shout with and mean nothing. Sometimes a singer pos sesses a very small voice, sweet and true, but associated with a personality which Is 'chic' and engaging, and so 13 capable of de lighting the world. Presumably that Is charm. It may be something of a gayety, something of archness, something of vivac ity. Again, it may be a sweet dignity, a sure poise, a noble repose. But through some means of appeal the singer must be In teresting In herself before her voice will win success." The Golden Singers. PORTLAND. Or., April S. (To the Editor.) In today's issue of The Ore gonlan a crisp and breezy article re garding the O. C. M. singers, from a serious point of view, is quite mislead ing and if left unanswered would be doing an injustice to those concerned, placing both club and school in an un just light. The Oregon Conservatory of Music has for years had the regular weekly glee club, harmony, theory and rudi ments classes In fact, has been the means of Introducing these free bene fits to Portland musical students. The secretary of the conservatory, observing the possibilities and dis tinctness of a class In Portland com posed entirely of ladies, blessed by nature with golden or auburn hair, or ganized the O. C. M. Golden Singers, which in almost every Instance has met with enthusiastic replies from the ladies addressed, there being now 30 odd registered and others yet to hear from. As stated in our letter, there will be free sight-reading, ciass-slnglng, in cluding illustrated work, to assist be ginners. The names of the teachers are with held, it being considered sufficient guar antee that the secretary would engage none but those most suitably equipped for the work. The secretary of the conservatory is in a position to do just as he says In free class teaching, but will not fur nish free books, and plainly states so In his communication. The work of the Golden Singers is not a passing fad, but will prove, as the conservatory has done, to be a perma nent feature in the City of Portland and the state. The organizer anticipates that the club will be a helpful medium to spread the fame of Oregon, and from present indications will somewhat help the at tendance at Gladstone Park and the 1905 Fair. In the meantime I would have it un derstood that I am always glad to have the work, standing and acts of the O. C. In The Inside Nerves the stomach. Why? Because of the bond of sympathy between the various branches. That is the reason the inside nerves are sometimes called the "sympa thetic" nrves. This explains why stomach trouble of ten develops Into heart trouble why In digestion brings on nervousness why diseases become, complicated. It ex plains, too, whv ordinary medical treat ments are wrong why medicine so fre quently fails. 1 My Free Dollar Offer Any sick one who has not tried my remedy Dr. Shoop's Restorative may have a Full Dol lar's Worth Free.

Arrested for Stealing Handcuffs. Dick Roach, a Portland man of about 25 yeare, was arrested last night for stealing a pair of handcuffs from the Arcade Thea ter. The instruments belonged to Sheriff Word, but have been used by one of the performers. Roach was given a chance to return the handcuffs after he had stolen them, but he said they belonged to him, and a policeman was called. She There are microbes in kisses, yea know!

For those who treat, only the symptoms need a different remedy for each. Such treatments are only palliative; the results do pot last. A cure can never come In disease of the stomach, heart, liver or kidneys, until the inside nerve power Is restored. When that is done. Nature re moves tho symptoms. There is no need of doctoring them. My remedy now known by druggists everywhere as Dr. Shoop's Restorative is the result of a quarter century of en deavor along this very lino. It does not dose the organ or deaden the pain but It does go at once to the nerve the Inside nerve the power nerve and builds It up, and strengthens it and makes it well.
