SUXDAT OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, Ironmaster Is Andrew Carnegie EW YORK, Jan. 1. (Special Cor respondence.) It may be that those who know of Andrew Car negie's habit of giving away organs would also be interested to learn how for his lovo for organ music may reach. An incident which occurred on Christ mas day made known tlie custom of the ironmaster of being awakened every morning between 7 and 8 by Walter C. Gale, organist and choir master of the Broadway Tabernacle, who goes to play on the superb organ built in Mr. Carnegie's home. Mr. Gale, of course, has become a very early riser, but under the circumstances it is a case of the early bird catching the worm. As a surprise planned by Mrs. Carnegie and Mr. Gale, his large choir with the soloists from the Broad way Tabernacle went at 4:30 to awak en Mr. Carnegie from his afternoon nap on Christmas day, at which time they gave a magnificent programmo including "Adestc Fldeles," "Infant so Gentle."' "Sleep, Holy Babe," a Bohe mian carol, -L,o, How a Rose Ere Blooming," and "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear," "Silent Night, Holy Kight" and -solos by Miss Rebcr Cor nett and Mr. Moore, soprano and bari tone of Mr. Gale's choir. After the singing was over Mr. Carnegie came down stairs and made the choir per fectly at home showing them through his library and his den, and then all were 'ntorta.ined at "tea."' The choir went to tho house out of compliment to Mr. Gale as well as to Mr. Car negie, it having been entirely volun tary on their part. AX incident which is not without in terest on account of the person ages who figure in it is the threat of a suit which hangs over Mmc. Bern hardt by Mlas Lucy Cleveland, a cou sin of the ex-President- Miss. Cleveland, who has published several books of pooms and Is also known as a lecturer on Egyptology, claims that when Mme. Bernhardt was in America some five years ago she expressed her willing ness to look at a play written by Miss Cleveland, and promised to return it witJi marginal notes and to help her with suggestions. The only thing to lte said in the matter is that if Miss Cleveland, does not know the customs and life of professional people any better than she appears to, she should derive a valuable lesson from this ex perience and be willing to pay the price. People wonder why great per sonages are so unapproachable. It Is just for reasons like this. Mmc. Bern hardt was no doubt perfectly sincere at the moment and her sympathies went out to the American woman to the extent of burdening herself with manuscript for which she might some day be held responsible. Miss Cleveland should have known that hers was per haps the 9y9th mss. lying ready for Mme. Bernhardt to look through, and if 188 of them escaped from being swept into the maelstrom that was a big percentage. "pr S we enter 390G the tendency to re " trospect is inevitable, notwitlistand ing the season began so late that we can hardly feel that we have done more than enter It. However, conditions are very pronounced, and they are to be read as an open book. Ag was remarked in the columns of this paper when the season opened, there was not one Amer ican composer represented in any line or on any orchestral programme. The trc mondous Impetus that was given orches tral music resulted in establishing a fol lowing for Russian music, for French mu sic, for the young German school, for all of which, thanks to Modest Altschuler and his associates, the visit of Vincent D'lndy, and the activity of Walter Dam rosch in addition to the German visiting conductors under the Philharmonic aus pices. There is no possible doubt that through this came a revulsion of senti ment, and two new organization which have just dawned bid fair to put the American upon a different basis in his own country. These two are the Mac Dowell Club and the New MuhIc Society of America. In addition to these the Volpe Symphony Orchestra announces it self ready to espouse the cause of the American, and Albert Mlldenberg, with co-operation of other American compos, ers. has announced plans for the exploita tion of the best American compositions. In fact, coming as all this does, it is just like the bursting of a bomb, because there have been no preparatory experi ments along these lines. But more sig nificant than all this Is the fact that the people behind theaj movements are not ( musicians themselves who are clamoring for a hearing and opportunities these had given up In despair years ago. They are people of prominence in intellectual and financial circles people who have come to realize the unparalleled treat ment which America has given its own. So much for the promise cf the future. SINCE the visit of D'lndy and his presentation of the French music of the present, there has been much discus sion among music-lovers concerning the relation and the difference between the entire French programmes offered this season, and those served to us through tho medium of the Russian Symphony Society. It is not surprising that a con census of laymen's opinions is in favor of the Russian music However, it should be remembered that we have heard the Russian and French music under very different circumstances, notwithstanding the tremendous advantage enjoyed by the French music in being presented by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which stands acknowledged as the greatest body of players in any country. We were not, however, offered the broad insight to the music of France or of Its composers, but to the music of D'lndy and a few of his contemporaries and pupils, who cannot bo accepted as an absolute and complete representation of what France has to of fer. There are many of us who prefer Cesar Franck, Saint-Saens, Dubussy and others quite as Interesting as those pre sented by D'lndy with all due respect to Chausson, Dukas, Faure, and last but not least, D'lndy himself.. And there is yet Gouiiod, whom we camot afford to overlook, especially in point of the fact that we may regard him as the antithesis of D'lndy and his complexities. We have come to know the Russian music by means of the Russian Symphony Society and other organizations, who have made their selections from tho broadest possible scope. We have become familiar with the Russian harmonies, having heard them frequently and having heard the several works of the same composers as also many composers. There are also other good reasons why Russian music appeals so forcibly to music-lovers and to sympathetic natures. It is because, whether we are conscious of it or not, there Is a sob and a broken heart in every note. It Is the actual embodiment of what Russian peoples have been living through for centuries, and Jt is the car nage and warfare of today. The French nation had its reign of terror, it Is true, but what grandeur and what luxury, what elegance and refinement character ized the country before that! That has become an event In history and the blood stain has faded. Whatever else may have been the power that caused that wonder 'ful nation to arise. . the dominant note was intellect rather than force. But Rus. ia has ever lived over pools of running Awakened by Payshurch Musician to Break His blood, and music her only avenue of ex pression, told no tales that could send its writers to Siberia. v T must not be believed that in every musical avenue the American Is at a disadvantage. To sum it up we may say that It Is only as public performer and as composer" of serious music or works in the larger forms. With the excep tion of twq or three European teachers of note the pedagogues of music in this country -are far in advance of those of the Old Country. Both financially and artis tically this Is the case. What the Amer ican woman has achieved in grand opera may be seen by a hasty glance at the following names: Olive Fraemstadt, Louise Homer, Edyth Walker. Marie Rappold. Josephine Jacoby, Marion Weed, Lillian Xordlca, Emma Karnes and Bes sie Abbott, to quote the Metropolitan ar tists only, and there arc a number in English opera worthy of consideration. Why repeat the well-worn statement that the very topmost rung of the ladder Is not for every one? There arc few In any profession who succeed in reaching the very top. but that docs not signify that it is not open to every one. Whether this Involves, years In Europe or years anywhere else makes little difference, since it is time as much as locality that counts. It is not possible to pass on without pointing out the remarkable fact that ' with the sxcoption of David Bispham there is not one noted operatic figure among American men. Bispham was the equal of any star of any na tion, while he had few equals himself during his career on the operatic stages of Europe and America. There Is in this fact matter for more extended comment than we can give it at prosent, at the same time we may offer the suggestion that it must be due to the American's second nature to turn his energies toward money-making as soon as possible. It is unquestionable that no writers of popular music In any other country in the world make as much money as the writers of light music in America, many of whom have made fabulous fortunes. HS IT brutally commorcial at this junc I turc to ask what music moans to those who follow It as a money-maker? In answering this question we cover It es thetically, as well as commcrically, be cause, try as we may to scparat them, in this particular commerce and art are so Interwoven that there is no distin guishing between them. This is so self evident that it seems hardly, necessary to show that as music grows more neces sary to the public, the public becomes more willing to pay for it- As this pub lic increases in size new organizations spring up, each a little different from the other in its offerings. This docs not mean that there are more instrumentalists in the field or more singers, but already last year new and compelling forces arose in orchestral circles, when organizations which had been struggling for an exist ence succeeded in interesting capital and influence, and, more than this, the pub lic at large. Most of the old organiza tions have increased the number of their concerts with entirely satisfactory re sults. New ones presenting themselves for consideration are meeting with en couragement. But far more significant than these is the cropping up here and WINE-STEEPED WOMEN PLEDGE NEW YEAR Furious Fun in Bay City Brings Dreams of Paris. Other Happenings AN FRANCISCO. Jan. 6. (Special Correspondence.) The new year was greeted in San Francisco with an enthusiasm never before known In this city famed for its gayety. Thou sands crowded the stroct and side walks from S in the evening until 3 In the morning. There was the usual pendemonium, but. the revelry In the cafes made the stranger within the city gates imagine he was in Paris. At .the leading restaurants, all the tables had been engaged several days ahead. People who sought admission were turned away by the hundred. A few moments before the midnight hour, the enthusiasm which had been gradually rising, burst forth In mad ness unrestrained. Men shouted and women .climbed upon their chairs and threw confetti and colored ribbons into the air. At the largest cafe in the city the shouting continued for 2 minutes. Dignified matrons relaxed and pledged the health of strangers far across the room. Men called greet ings to each other from one end of the spacious cafe to the other. One young woman of great beauty, gowned In white, stepped lrom her chair upon the table and with head thrown back. Joyously whirled" a cluster of tuneful bells about her head. In the dizzy ex citement of the hour the wine flowed with Increasing speed. Matron and maid alike responded with the men to every pledge for a health. As the hour waxed later, some of the fair revelers found their heads aswim with strange rhythms and sought the frosh freeze that blew without. At 2 o'clock n the morning the cafes still guarded their doors, with scores wai'ing to se cure places at the tables still occu pied. One of the Interesting features of the celebration at the end of the year was the ocean bath taken by the mom bors of the Olympic Club on the morn ing of December 31. Every year on this day the members of the big ath letic club run to the beach and take a plunge Into the surf. It Is the best advertisement for San Francisco, for the report of this annual dip is cir culated far and wide. This year the weather was unusually cold. As a general thing a December plunge in the sea Is thoroughly enjoyable in Cal ifornia, but It happened that the last day ot the year In San Francisco, 1905, was one more comfortably spent about a roaring fire than In the breakers at tho Cliff House. However, the Olymp ians gathered at the club house on Post street, and with the veteran Will lam Greer -Harrison in the lead, started out on a trot. Through the park they Jogged, 25 in number, and only stopped when they had nfade their way to the beach. There was a storm without r.nd the breakers were rolling high. The athletes quickly donned bathing suits, and with no hesitation made the plunge into the brine The run had put them in Just the condition to en joy the bath. While tho people on fchorc marveled, the club men swam and sported in the breakers for the greater part of an hour. According to every member. It was the finest swim of the ort the club has ever had. Whjle the northern part of the state was celebrating by Winter surf bath ing. Southern California was holding a rose carnival. This is an annual fete in Pasadena, and attracts tourists from every corner of the globe. Some 60.000 people gathered In tho beautiful city to witness the festivities. A gala pro cession of rose-adorned floats and chariot races In the afternoon made up the programme. The highest honors were won by the Pasadena' High School, which was represented hy a massive float In which rode young women adorned with roses so arranged as to form a Chinese temple banner of varied colors. The float was drawn by six horses, the harness being hid Organ Music Morning Slumbers. there of new chamber music organiza tions, the demand for which proves a great Intellectual advance. As has fre quently been stated In these columns, the audiences of the Kncisel Quartet fill every nook of Mendelssohn Hall at their six concerts In New York and five in Brooklyn-- In addition to these concerts the Boston Symphony Quartet, Willy Hess leader, gives three. The Olive Mead Quartet gives three, the .Kaltenborn Quartet three and among the newer as pirants for honors In this field the Mar gulles Trio gives three, the Marum Quar tet gives a series, the Leo Schuls Quar tet gives a series, as do the Russian Symphony Quartet and the Flonzalay Quartet, not to extend the list of string quartets. A new line of chamber music is making itself felt- This is the wood wind organization, as demonstrated by the Longy Club, in which five of the wood-winds and reeds of the Boston Sym phony Orchestra are twice represented. These are flutes, oboes, clarinets, bas soons and English horns. A similar club has Just been formed with the wood wind membership of the Now York Sym phony Orchestra. This phase of chamber music has become an accepted form In Paris, and, whereas there may be con siderable interested manifested, the mon otony of color will make a little of it go a long way. THE pianists of this season so far have practically been Pugno and Relse nauer. and these two In themselves rep resent a remarkable object lesson in con trasts. Both are the very greatest In the higher acceptation of the term, notwith standing that one is essentially French and the other is all that is German. More over, the great catholicity shown by both is perhaps each man's most distinguish ing feature. Reisenauer's musical cduca. tion was well calculated to .bring this about, since he studied In Germany, Italy, England, Russia, and. In fact, nearly every country In Europe. For 12 years he was a pupil of Franz Liszt, and Is probably one of the greatest representa tives of that master, not forgetting, how ever, such exponents as Rosenthal and Adolc Aug dor Ohe, the latter of whom is now regarded as a resident of America, and Rosenthal will make an enormous tour next season under the auspices of the Aeolian Company with the Weber pi ano. Both Pugno and Reisenauer will go to the Pacific Coast this Spring. There seems to be, much interest manifested there In the appearance of these artists, and that two of the rarest treats are In store we who have reveled In their New York concerts, can with Impunity prom ise. The new year will bring Harold Bauer, who has hot yot played In New York this season. Arthur Rubinstein, who has not yet played In New York this sea son. Arthur Rubinstein, who will make his debut January S at Carnegie Hall, with Fritz Schccl and his Philadelphia Orchestra. Joseph Lheylnne the Russian, also new to this country: Rachmaninoff, composer-pianist, who will appear here for the first time, although as composer this Russian has become well known and a great favorite In America. A plan which bids fair to arouse sensational In terest Is the possibility of a concerto concert, with three such -eminent pianists as Harold Bauer. Rudolph Ganz and Emit Pnur. It would seem as though this might be regarded as multum In parvo. EMILIE FRANCES BAUER. den by garlands. The chariot racos were modeled after those of the Ro mans. A prize of 51000 was awarded to the winner. Some of the fastest race hories In the state had been spe cially trained for the event- C. C West won this event. He drove a set of horses belonging to Lucky Baldwin. After his victory he was crowned with a wreath by Miss Elsie Armltage. who was Queen of the tournament. While the streets of Pasadena were being strewn with roses, the same flower was being sold in New York at $30 a dozen. - Tho new year was not all gaiety for California, however, for It brought the death of Mrs. F. M. Smith, of Oakland, one of the best-belovod women of tho state. Mrs. Smith, who was the wife of the "Borax King." was a philan thropist whose deeds have brought Joy to thousands. Her home at Arbor Vil la, in East Oakland, is one of the beau ty spots of the Coast. In the extensive grounds near the house are cottages which were maintained by Mrs. Smith as homes for girls. She supported these homes, and they were always open to friendless girls. The young women were thus cared for and-educator until adopted into refined fam ilies. Mrs. Smith had no children of her own. but adopted several young women, for whom she cared with the tondernoss of a mother. Most of them have grown to occupy loading places in Oakland society. Mrs. Smith also gave large sums to other worthy causes. Be sides an endowment of $1,860,000 for the homes for girls, she had given a like sum to Mills College, the well known educational institution for young women in Oakland. A few days before her death Mrs. Smith had given tho college a new gift of $50,060 to es tablish a department of political econ omy, and had subscribed a large sum to make possible a scries of symphony concerts at tho University of Califor nia during the Spring of this year. In addition she had given lavishly to pub lie and private charities. She had just reached the age of GO and was preparing for a trip around the world with a party of young women who were to be her guests. Her private car was in readiness when a stroke of apoplexy caused her death. Mw. Smith Is sur vived by her husband, whose fortune has been estimated from J15.0OT.0W to $20,003. 000. Mr. Smith Is the man who opened Death Valley tc the world and first called attention to Its rich mineral deposits. He has developed the rich borax beds there, and this has been the foundaUon of his fortune. He attempted to run a railroad into the valley, but his efforts have not yet been crowned with success. The borax is hauled from the valley with the famous 20-mule team and by a big traction en gine. In addition to his mining Interests. Mr. Smith is the owner of the streetcar systems of Oakland, Berkeley and Ala meda; operates a ferry system, and car service between am FranciPco. Oakland and Berkeley; possesses n vast tract in Oakland, which he is selling off as resi dence property, the site being Ideal, as It overlooks the Golden Gate from the foothills. He also' controls several banks and a newspaper in Oakland. Besides his homes In California, he has a magnificent estate near that of the late Secretary Hay's In New Hampshire. Mrs. Smith came from Brooklyn and made her way to California when a girl. She married 30 years ago. when Mr. Smith was a poor man. and helped him build up his fortune. Despite her great wealth, her heart remained ever the same, and she was happiest when bringing Joy and cheer to others. Her home In Oakland was the center of Oakland's culture and refinement. The beautiful grounds were always at the disposal of the church for charitable fetes. .

Villain ted by Kcpublipan Iniquities, Snys Jefferson "Wnrhorsc. GRACCTS PASS. Or.. Jan. C. (To the Edi tor.) In The OregcnUn I sec an inquiry aa to what It takes to constitute a Democrat. Taking it for granted that the propounder at i thU question is Meklcg light upon the sub ject. I hereby ofTer a few unmistakable char acteristics by which a real Democrat may be distinguished from a real Republican. I e'nter lato this task, too. with a clear knowledge of the fact that there are many who are Democrats In name only, and many who are Republicans In name only. But there is still a real Democratic party and a real Republican jarty. And I will cay that in the main these two parties have been con sistent. Men of Independent views have rUn up in both these parties, but they have never yet been able to change . their fundamental principles. There are still enough real Dem ocrats and real Republicans ,to keep party llsrx plainly drawn. To dlscufs ihlr question Intelligently, we sfcotttd know the origin of these two partka asd something about the conditions that brosght each Into existence. The Democratic party Is the outgrowth of the equality Idea, as taught by Jefferson and his associate, while the Republican party Is the outgrowth of the imperial Idea, as taught by Hamilton, and put Into practice by Stanton and his re construction areoclates at the close of the Civil War. The pnaeat Republican- party la now Jest 40 years old. Its flrat public work was to repudiate Abe Lincoln and Ho race Greeley, and then fill the South with a horde of the n:at unscrupulous Imperial carpet-baggers that ever disgraced a civilized country. These outrages would be forgotten and for given were It not a fact that the party every two years "points with pride" to Us record. It still says that it was right to Impeach President Johnon for attempting to carry out the policy of Lincoln, to overthrow the constitutional governments of 11 states, to disfranchise a. million loyal American citi zens, to ubject helpless old men. women and children to the abute of a brutal mllltla. to turn our public domain over to n set of land thieves, and to put on foot a system of graft that places the party leader of today before the civilized world sj a band pf crim inals. The real Democrats of this Nation have always respected the rights of other nations and accorded to each Individual the right to do as he pleaaep, provided he doesn't please .to Interfere with the rights of others. We "point with pride" to the fact that we stood as cno man with our sympathies and our votes for the people of the South while they were shamefully treated by Republican carpet baggers: that we opposed the present finan cial system of Wall-treet gamblers In IKS.
