THiS SUNDAY OBEGONIAN, PORTLAND, , APRIL 30, 1905. 39 IN THE Miss Grace Van Studdlford, the star With "Bed Feather," -which comes to the Marquam Grand Theater May 11, 12 and 13, once aspired to be a violinst, and un doubtedly she -would have become one had not her vocal talents developed so wonderfully. When a young sirl she lieard an eminent violinist perform. Her voice had not Deen formed, but the mu sic was just as much in her soul then as now. She was fired with enthusiasm over the masterful way in which he drew beautiful strains from his Instrument, and made-up her mind then and there to be a violinist. She -saved all her spendlng money with the object in view of pur chasing a violin. But money was scarce In those days, and as her voice was discovered before she managed to save the amount necessary for a good instru ment, naturally the violin gave way to the voice, with the result that Miss Van Studdlford has since won her way Into the hearts of thousands and thousands of theatergoers, from one end of the coun try to the other. But for this violin epi sode, however, she might not have been bo fascinated by music. . The memory of her early days still clings-to her. and now there is not an in strument in the world that she prefers to the violin. Wherever she sees a young girl Just beginning to master this most difficult of Instruments she is always sure to give whatever encouragement she can. But then, this is true of her in regard to all kinds of music. She has lent a help ing hand to many a struggling singer. In this way the star of "Red Feather" has endeared horself to many, who, in their gratitude, will always remain her true friends. Scandinavian Entertainment.

FREUND, editor of the "Music Trades,' published in New York, and member of the Civic Federa tion, is in Portland Ihts week, accom panied by his wife. They are guests at the Hotel Portland. Mr. Freund is one of the most wJdely-known literary geniuses In. the United States. Lately he has attracted widespread attention because of his advocating new ideas which he believes, if adopted, would result in industrial peace. "In the first place there is too much discussion about capital and labor," remarked Mr. Freund at the Hotel Port land yesterday afternoon. 'There can be no permanent solution to the labor questions now. as the conditions are constantly undergoing radical changes There can be adjustments hut no solu tion which will always hold. "What Ave want for the laboring man is less benevolence and more justice," emphatically declared Mr. Freund "Justice is fundamental for the bring ing about of industrial peace. The masses are the great consumers of the commodities of life. They are the ones that cause this country and all others to be prosperous. When you re duce wages you lessen the consump tion of the commodities and necessities of life. "When it can be demonstrated to the employer that to decrease his payroll is to decrease his -profits there will be less agitation about the labor ques tion. The more money the working peo ple receive for their labors, the more money there Is in circulation and it means more business for the factories and all the great" industries. You cut down on the wages and there will be less money circulated, as those who are affected will naturally have to decrease their living expenses. It finally reaches the very man who has made a material cut In the wages of his employes and he wants to decrease his payroll still more. "This is a practical age and you nave to appeal to dollar and cents proposi tions. IiCt an employer see that he is reducing his own profits by reducing wages and there will be a wonderful awakenlnsr. Why is it that the United States is so prosperous and many of the other countries are in the gTasp of poverty, although their resources may be nearly as great? It is because the American mechanic is enabled to pro cure a nice and respectable home and doesn't have to live in a hovel. The bet ter they are treated the more prosper ous this Country will be. "There is another thing- I want to mention which I think is of the utmost importance to the success of the Lewis and Clark Exposition," continued Mr. Freund. "There are thousands and thousands of Easterners planning to come to Portland by the way of San Francisco. They snould come to Port land first. If they go to San Francisco many of them will be obliged to give up attending the Fair because of the lna bility of the Southern Pacific to handle the Immense traffic. 'Why, I even know people desiring to secure sleeping car accommodations from San Francisco to Portland that have been delayed as long as a week or mdre. Think what it will be this Sum mer. The roads running Into Portland from the East will have no difficulty in handling the throngs and that is why I would advise tnem to come to the Ex position first. When I return to New York I will make it an especial point to see that the New Tork papers will publish articles advising the tourists to make Portland their first desttna tion. I will also treat upon it In my magazine. If people go to San Fran cisco and find they cannot reach Port land without being delayed for days, they will return East and advise their friends not to come- to the Exposition." "Never heard how Sheboygan obtained its name?" "said W T. OrnVpr nt Rh. boygan. Wl., at the Hotel Portland the otner evening. "Well, that's funny. I thought everybody had heard of that. Years- ago, when the . town consisted of but a few scattering villages, somejone suggested that the town be given a name. "The settlers thought over the matter a long time, and, though many names were suggested, they were all refused. There was an old squaw that was a fre quent visitor to the village and got to be yery. well acquainted wlttr the settlers. One day she appeared in front of the onestore of the village with an infant in her arms. Several of the inquisitive men who were hanging around the store asked the .squaw the sex of the baby. "She did not know very much English. and. after wrinkling her brows, sputtered out 'Sheboygan evidently meaning that the latest addition to the .family was a boy. Someone in a Joke suggested that the town' be ' named- 'Sheboygan, and the name has remained with it ever since." - E. Li. White, president of the Lewis and Clark Commission from Colorado; Com missioner E. H. Grubb and J. C. Langley, chief clerk of the Bureau of Mines, are in Portland arranging for the Colorado exhibit. Mr. White is the Commissioner of Mines for the State of Colorado. We shall have practically the same exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Exposi tion as we had at the 9t Louis Fair," said Mr. White at the Hotel Portland last night. "Of course, our display here will not be so extensive as the exhibit we had at St. Louis, but it will be fully as -com plete in every particular. We took the grand prize at St. Louis, and we do not expect to fall behind at the Portland Fair. 'Weshall have our exhibit: in a large stall Bade from huge blocks of marble and building stone mined In Colorado. We shall show the ore in its crude state, and after It has been refined. We shall have at Portland the largest silver nugget in the world. It weighs 4S3 pounds and is valued at $3200. It is 97 per cent pure sil ver. The largest silver nugget the world has eveij produced was mined In Colorado. It weighed 1SO0 pounds, but it has since been melted up. "We are very late in getting started. but I think we will pull through all right. The Commissioners were not appointed until last Monday, so you can see that we have had little time to work In.'.
