THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND. NOVEMBER 4, 190G. 28 l'l , 1 U or O WHAT will doubtless be an Interest ing musical event of the season Is promised by Mrs. Walter Reed, who will give an Invitation concert at the Hetiig Theater, "December 6. Mrs. Reed will present seven of her most talented pupils In varied repertoire and will also bring out the well-known Treble Clef Club for Its Initial performance of this season. Admission will be by invitation only, and the affair le expected to be a social as well as a musical event. The soloists who will appear are Mrs. San derson Reed, Miss Ethel Lytle, Miss Mae Breslin, Miss Vlda Reed, Miss Kathleen Lawler, Miss Helen Lytle and Mrs. Lula Dahl Miller. All of these singers are known to have fine voices and eeveral of them have not appeared in public to any xtent, so their appearance will be a matter of Interest to Portland. Mrs. Fletcher Linn and Arthur Alex ander were soloists at the open meeting of the Oregon Federation of Women's Clubs last Wednesday evening, when Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker, of Colorado, ad dressed an audience of 600 at the First Congregational Church. Both singers were in splendid voice and made a most favorable lnyresslon on the visiting dele gates. Mrs. Linn, who looked charming In a Dresden evening gown and pink pic ture hat, sang Tosti's "Invano," giving "6hena Van," by Beach, as an encore. Mr. Alexander played his own accompani ment for "Mattanata," by Tosti, and pang a delightful little French ong in response to the enthusiastic demand for another song. Two organ selections by Miss Le onora Fisher added mfcch to the musical part of the evening's programme and was much enjoyed and appreciated. One of her selections was given by special re quest, and both numbers were beautifully rendered. Mrs. May Dearborn Schwab enter tained the Operatic Club last Wednesday right with an old-fashioned Hallowe'en party which was one of the most enjoy able gatherings this dignified organiza tion has yet enjoyed. After the rehearsal of "Madame Butterfly," the old tradition al Hallowe'en games were tried and the unmarried members of the club learned their fte. The next meeting of the club will fall on the night of the Taw con cert, so it may be postponed, but the an nouncement has not yet been made. Glf ford Nash will be next week's host at his studio on . Tenth street. A recital-lecture Is announced by the Women's Club for next Friday afternoon, at which Professor Irving N. Glen, whose' picture appears on this page, will lec ture on Othello and sing selections from the opera of that name. Professor Glen, who to a member of the University of Oregon staff, la considered one of the best baritones in the state and his sing ing here with the Glee Club, University of Oregoa. last Thanksgiving, Is pleasantly remembered. Mrs. Fletcher Linn's singing of Nevin's beautiful "Oh Love Divine" last Sunday morning at the First Presbyterian Church has been commented upon by those who heard her as the finest solo work she has ever done as soprano of the quartet choir In that church. She was in particularly fine voice and gave delightful expression to- the delicate, re ligious sentiment of the selection. Professor J. W. Belcher has a chorus of 40 mixed voices' which will appear with the White Temple quartet choir tonight for the first time. This feature Is ex pected to add much, to the congregational gospel singing of the evening, which is much enjoyed at the Temple. Portland will have a number of musical treats this Winter. This week Taw will sing for us and In the near future Leon cavallo, the Italian composer, will visit the Rose City. Shanna Cumming will be here Thanksgiving and Madam Norelll, who Is now in New Tork, will also visit her former Pacific Coast home In concert. It has been announced that Shanna Cumming will be in Portland this month and will appear in concert Thanksgiving night at the White Temple. The appear ance of Miss Cumming will be a great musical event in Portland, for her glorious soprano was known and appreciated here before she became' an Eastern favorite and celebrity.

BlMIIIRHIilltiMl f -? 4 - MI8S ELLEN IT MUST be very gratifying to Miss Taw to be the recipient of such tremendous ovations as have been hers lately, and to. find so great an appreciation of the vast Improvement she has made during the years she has spent in patient work and study abroad. She was a very young girl when she made her first concert tour and when, as the New Tork Tribune ex pressed It, "it required a fence at least 11 feet high to represent plctorially the altitude to which her vpice could scale, and her vocal ascensions were her stock in trade." "She returns row," the ven erable critic of the Tribune wrote last March, "under more dignified conditions and makes her appeal on her knowledge of the art of song, and her singing can V ' - extorts vot"o sured for that amount with Lloyd's, Lon don. Hegedus will use this Instrument ex- clusively on his Amerfcan tour January to April. His fiery temperament vividly recalls Wleniawski, but is tempered by what the London Graphic describes, "Master of style, charm and dignity." F. W. Goodrich and Mordaunt Goodnough will give an invitation piano recital this month at St. David's Church, East Thirty-fourth and Btlmont streets. They will Introduce several vocal solos in the programme.

Miss Breslin will appear In Mrs. Reed's recital next month at the Heilig. Miss Rose Coffey sang at the Clan Macleay Hallowe'en celebration, giving a delightful rendition of the "Woodland Croon" by Clutson. . W. A.

Miss Lottie Bantieia and Miss Lina Llnnehan, vocalists, will appear In this afternoon's programme at the T. W. C. A. Sunday "at home." Miss Beulah Cadwell sang a most effec tive solo, "Hold Thou My Hand"' (Briggs) at the Piedmont Presbyterian Church last Sunday morning. Miss Helen MacEwan played a most effective piano solo at the Wednesday afternoon session of the Oregon State Federation of Clubs. Mrs. Olga Bartsch-Lang Is organizing a musical club having for Its object the study of musical history, theory, light and part singing. The first meeting will be held in Mrs. Lang's studio Thursday evening at 8 o clock. Josef Meredith Rozencrantz. violinist, will be assisted In his concert next month by Mrs. Rose-Bloch Bauer, Mrs. Julia Meyer Rozencrantz and Edgar Coursen. Lacey Williams has been engaged as tenor in the choir of the Calvary Pres byterian Church to fill the vacancy made by the departure of John Ross Fargo, who has gone to New Tork. When a mass meeting of the Baptists of Portland was called last week no one ever dreamed that there was going to be anything funny about It, but if .that meeting is now mentioned in the pres ence of the quartet choir of the White Temple their faces look like moving pic tures. Everyone realizes in a vague sort of way that choirs have troubles of their own, but only the musician who has tried to sing hozannas before a large congregation with a pious face when something excruciatingly funny was oc curring can realize what real trouble means. At the meeting in question there were several visiting choirs who sang splendid solos and quartets, each trying to outdo the other but the White Tem ple quartet had practiced well and fully expected to carry off the palm. The selection made by Professor J. W Belcher for the occasion was "Fear Not Te, O Israel," by Spicker, which began with a baritone solo.- Mr. Robinson was doing his best and the congregation was listening with rapt attention when a baby In the rear of the church became fretful and whimpered softly. The mother bushed it but without much avail, and when Mrs. Reed began her contralto solo the baby went her one better and began a song without words in a key higher. The singer seemed des perate and sang louder and louder. Now everyone knows that Mrs. Reed has powerful voice and when she lets It out In its full strength it Is something to be reckoned with, but it did not fcaze that Infant prodigy, and It kept full pace with her. With a sigh of relief the con tralto finished her last note and turned the honors over to Miss Lawler, soprano. It wouldn't have happened Just as It did in a thousand years, but the words for the soprano solo were "Oh. why crlest thou?" The four members of the quartet say the lines coming and Miss Lawler's face was a study in both color and movement when she stepped forward to begin. A physician on the front seat looked at her anxiously and seemed to detect serious symptoms of convulsions. Finally she made one supreme effort and sweetly caroled, to the tiaby's shrill ac companiment: "Oh, why criest thou?" (Organt inter lude and response by baby ; then :) "Oh, why-y-y crlest thou-ou-ou?" ("Wough-ough-ough," echoedbaby.) "Oh - h-h-h why - y-y-y. Oh - h-h-h why-y-y-" ("Tl-yi, yl-yl," it screamed.) "Oh-h-h-h-h-" (Ah-h-h-h, 00-00-00-oh-h-h-h," came the response.) And then the soprano collapsed. And notwithstanding that every man and woman in that church were good BaptistR they laughed Inordinately, and the choir was so rattled It had to ad journ. Mrs. Reed says she hopes to train that baby's vocal powers some day, as they need.it badly. The following programme was given at Mrs. Walter Reed's Tuesday Afternoon Club's last meeting: (a) "The Robin Kong," (b) "Confidence," (MacDonald), Miss Lona Leake: "The Willow" (Salter), Mrs. A.
