Blauvelt has for the past few muub ueen neaaing ner own operatic and concert companies, both here and abroad, and this recital will be the last for several seasons, as Mme. Blauvelt has determined to remain abroad for two years for the purpose of study. It Is not many years ago that this fair singer graduated from the Amer ican National Conservatory of Music and the instantaneous success of America's foremost soprano both in this country and abroad is musical his tory. It is a remarkable fact that as a child lime. Blauvelt's inclinations were In another direction, she wished to be a violinist. At the age of 7 she had played In concerts, and for two yeara she studied the violin with Richard Arnold, who predicted a great career for her. When she was 15 she entered the National Conservatory, and at the advice of Mme. Fursch Madl she gave up the violin and took to singing. Under the tuition of that artist, and later under M. Bouhy, she made rapid progress. A few years ago M. Bouhy advised Mme. Blauvelt to go to Europe. She continued her studies in Paris with him, and sang In opera in France and Belgium. Her reception was such as to win her the Interest of such men as Faure, Dellbes. Gounod and Thomas. Madame Blauvelt will appear here with the artistic violin-cellist, Mr. Alfred Rosenthal, and Miss Edith Kellogg, pianist. SLEEPS THROUGH AN OPERA Secretary Houses French President in Time to Applaud. TARTS, Feb. 29. (Special.) President Fallieres came from a rather formal dinner party at the Elysee the other evening In compliment to the special Swedish Mission, to see the new mount ing of "Faust" at the Opera House. He had often heard this opera. After the rlsinsr of the curtain, he whispered to his serretary that he wanted to take 40 -T A ' 1 i 1 I 1 ' .'' a, -1 . ' -Vv is- f 4 J" : t ' MAU1ME I.II.IA.

He applauded four times, and retired to slumber as often. Next day the papers informed the peo ple how enchanted the President had been with the new scenery, and, indeed, the whole performance. The genial President did sot spare his compliments to scene painters, decorators and singers, and predicted great results ' for the new management. Lilian Tingle. Gives Appetizing Recipes for Preparing Liver Expert Tells How to Utilize "Other Farts' of Beef. Mutton and Veaf, and Calls Them "Epicures' Tidbits." BY LI MAN TINGLE. SOME! pfopl object to use of what are conveniently If vaguely described as "other parts' of beef, mutton, veal, on hygienic grounds: others despLse such material because of Us cheapness; and other again enjoy the variety afforded by the use of these epicures' tidbits." It I known that the Internal organs are more liable to be diseased than the outer muscular portions, and that most thor ough cleaning and carefuj cooking is nec essary; Uo that the close texture of ome of the organs causes them fo be less easy of digestion. But. on the other hand. If the heart, liver and so forth are per fectly Xrch and sound and your digestion Is normal, there is no particular reason why you should not maae use of them occasionally with very good results. If you liave some skill In cookery and are not rustically narrow in your likes and dls likfA The cost of such dishes varies with the locaJ demand to a surprising extent. In peine places you can get even the choicest f sweetbreads or lambs' kidneys free for the asking; In other places prices will sometimes run as high as a dollar for sweetbreads and 2S or 30 cents a pair for lambs' kidneys. Of course they are much more enjoyable at the latter price. Recent quotations here in Portland are es follows; T.vr Be R to 10 cents; veal, 20 cents, and I iimb. 10 cents a pound. Kidney Bopf, 7 to lt cents each: veal, i 12lt to 15 cents each; lamb. 30 cents a Ti farts Beef. S to 5 cents a pound; veal and lamb, 10 cents a pound. Sweetbreads Kift? cents a pound. TonRties Beet. 00 to 63 cents each; ' shepn'. 60 cents a dosen. Brains 12 to 15 cents a set. Tripe 7 to li rents a sound.. Oxlatts 10 cents. t'alves head 7S cents each. IMgnfeet 5 to 10 cents a Dound. At these prices it will be seen that the occasional use of some of these "trim jntnga" nisy be desirable from an eco jiomlo as well as a gastronomic point of lev?., To begin with liver; Everybody knows liver and bacon, and many are the ways good, bad and Indifferent in which it Is , rerved. On a restaurant menu it is usual ly described as "calves liver," but quite often you may cat that of beef. If. care fully selected and prepared, and be none the wiser. In oooking liver lf you are jiot the type that sim-ply dumps every thing into a frying pan with some grease, heats it until It begins to burn and calls that cooking) you will probably pour boil lit water on the neatly cut slices and let stand rive minutes. Then dry It and sea eon It. dipping it In bacon fat if for broil ing, and in egg and crumbs if for frying In deep fat. Crisp, curly bacon and slices of lemon should accompany liver thus etmply treated. Be sure it is cooked all through. Broiled beefsteak should, of course, be pink inside; but liver, never. A cut onion rubbed on each slice of liver, after the wiping, meets the approval of man A duinty way of serving "liver and ba con" is to take thin slices) of lamb or calf liver, cut in rounds no bigger than a dollar and thread them on skewers with alternating pieces of bacon of similar size- and shape and mushrooms, too. If you feel extravagant), like "chicken livers en brochette." Season and brush with bacon fat, balance the skewers upright on rack in a baking; pan, bake until the bacon Is crisp and serve garnished wth "Water cress. A dish which I have not tried but which was highly recommended by the giver of the recipe Is a combination of liver, ba con, onions and sage, intended to imi tate duck and served with apple sauce. Stuffed and larded liver, are teed on a bed of vegetables and given a tinal browning In the oven. Is a very popular dish in ame places FVrmmaHy I prefer a liver pate or loaf, whore a calf liver la boiled or cooked in the pan for rive minutes, finely .minced w hile hot. and seasoned with salt, pepper, owyenne, onion Juice, lemon or vinegar and a little poultry seasoning. Half cup (or more if you want lo be econom ical) of bread crumbs and a tittle chopped ham or bacon, with two well-beaten eggs, are next added. Then the mixture is packed into a mold and baked or steamed for two hour. It can be served hot with In own. tomato or mushroom eauce, or ft Red cold. Another pate to be eaten cold is make by cooking one pound of liver, half a pound of lan veal and one-fourth pound cf bacon tall cut In rather small slices) In a double boiler for several hours. The meat should be minced while hot and passed repeatedly through the chopper until a very fine past can be made with the gravy and ft little melted butter. The seasoning, may be similar to that given above, or it can be varied by the addition of a little spice (particularly mace) and mushroom extract; or a hint of garlic, very judiciously administered, will im prove it for some tastes. Finally, the paste should bs packed into small jars or glasses and covered with melted butter or melted fat to exclude the air. It will keep for a reasonable length of time in a cool place, and is srood for sandwiches or as tilling for patties. These pastes, loaves or sausages of liver are quite frequently enjoyed by people j who dislike liver in other forms. A sim- pte bttt rather nine entree is' made by ; spreading a neatly cut piece of fried bread I with cucumber puree (made with a brown sauce), men anatng a dainty slice of fried liver or liver pate, more puree, end a tiny slice of bacon for the top. Serve very hot or the effect will be disastrous. Tomato puree or slices of broiled toma toes might be used Instead of the cucum beT If you want a very dark brown stock for soup or sauce, a tiny bit of liver browned with some of the meat will deepen the color. Some cooks keep on hand a little pickled liver for use In etews and gravies to give both color and flavor. In preparing this a beef liver is rubbed with a mixture of salt and sugar two tablespoons of the former to half a pound of the latter. It lies in this and is turned daily for a week, then placed In a pickle made by boiling one pound of salt and one and one-half ounces of salt petre for a quarter of an hour. This Is poured cold over the liver, which remains in it six weeks and is turned every other day; after which it 1a taker! out and. hung in a coo!. place to dry. In some places you can buy liver al ready prepared in this way. A small piece of it is added to sauces and stews and removed before service. BLIND TYPIST IS RAPID Writes 40 Words a Minute, Heading Xotes by Touch. LONDON. Feb. 22. The typewriting machine clicked merrily away under the hands of the operator, who appeared at first glance to be a typical typist. Then she stopped, and her fingers flew along a narrow slip of paper. She was reading her shorthand notes by finger touch, for she was blind. The typist was Miss Sarah Ann Bar gate, who was sent five years ago by the Lambeth Guardians to the Royal College for the Blind. She Is now an expert shorthand typist and is seeking a situation. "1 do want to 'get a post," she said, so that I can earn my living. Of course, what I really want Is a place where I could live in." Miss Bargate can take shorthand notes at the rate of nearly 100 words a minute upon a shorthand machine, an Instru ment which punches abbreviated words upon a tape, and can typewrite at 40 words a minute. 1,V A.
