"ZIRA" XEXT WEEK'S BILIj The Baker Company Will Present This Powerful Play. A beautiful production of "Zira," Henry Millers adaptation of Wllkle Collin's famous story of MThe New Magdalen." next week, opening Sunday matinee, March 15. Florence Roberts played it dur ing her last visit to this city.- and it ere ated a sensation among all lovers of the powerful and intense form of drama. The role of Zira is one that requires a' star or leading woman of rare temperament an ability to play, and it is one for which Stoddard, of the Baker company, is peeularly well fitted. Creston Clarke to Appear. Creston Clarke, than whom there is no more popular actor upon the visiting list of the larger cities of the country, is ap pearing this season in a new three-act drama of American life in Mexico, called The Power That Governs." The piece is from the pen of Adelaide Prince, and in the opinion of the star and his manager, Jules Murry, he has never before been given so congenial a vehicle for his un usual talents. At the Marquam Grand soon. "Sis In New York" Coming. "Sis in New York" is the title of the offering which comes to the Empire next week, starting Sunday matinee. March 15, and It reveals the merry Hoosier lass In a new role. A visit to the great me tropolis permits of many chances tor fun. AXIMAL. SHOW AT THE GRAJTD Carlisle's Dog and Pony Circus Be gins Tomorrow Afternoon. If there is one kind of vaudeville special ty that the children appreciate more than another it is an animal act. - The Grand will offer this week, commencing tomor row afternoon, one of the best of these acts, when Carlisle's dog and pany cir cus comes. This act introduces Tom, the world-famous talking donkey. Sullivan & Considino have this act under contract and are paying an enormous salary, but the act is worth it, because it pleases the public. Wherever the Carlisle dog and pony circus has been seen, the theater lias been packed to the doors and special matinees have been held for children. Therefore, all parents should see that the little ones are taken or sent to the Grand this week to see this act. An art which is also in the top-notch class for entertainment is Howe and Ed wards. They have a comedy sketch called "The Arrival of Mr. Dooley" and it is a quaint, laughable comedy. Hibernian liumor is appreciated everywhere and Howe and Edwards have In their sketch some lines and jokes which are the es sence of Celtic wit. The special added attraction on the new programme will be the Stadium -Trio. This is a ring act and ft has a reputation as wide as the continent. The Stadium Trio has played all the best vaudeville houses in the country. . Kaufman Brothers take a dip into grand opera, only instead of making it serious, they burlesque many famous and popular selections.- They are excellent singers, have appeared in several noted musical organizations and in addition - to being t ----- " 1 " ' ' ' " " ' " """""" ,, - x - -- I MIKPHV AD W1L1ARU A FEATliltK AT PANTAGES THEATER. I able to sing, they can also manufacture mirth. The Two Dots, a mother and her daughter, have a head-to-head balancing specialty. This ai:t was seen -here many months ago and made a most favorable impression with the Grand audiences. Since then the act has been a success in the East.. The Manning twin sisters are singers and acrobatic dancers and they are twins, as they say. The girls are good looking, dress well and are nimble of foot. Ivan hoe will continue singing his pictured ballads and the F. F. -Montressa -motion wave views -will be Imported from Paris. CROWDS SEE GOOD SHOW Pantages Coming to Stand for the Best In Vaudeville. Pantages patronage is steadily increas ing and nearly every performance for several weeks past has been to capacity houses. The theater-going public is com ing to understand that Pantages is the name that - represents real values in vaudeville and that good acts may be expected week after week- Pantages In sists on having the best, no matter what it costs. For example, the famous aotor, Melbourne McDowell, in a dramatic sketch, has been signed up to appear next week, and other noted stars are being negotiated with. Tho bill Just ending has been one of exceptional values, and those who have not been will do well. to enjoy a couple of hours of- bright merriment today. Delphlno and Dolmora. the noted French travesty artists, in "A Musical Uproar," are the hit of the week, although Jack Symon and the half-dozen other suc cessful performers have been - going big. It takes only a casual glance over the attractions booked for the new week to convince you that you'll get your money's worth, and more. Two head liners have been booked, the first feature being the well-known comedians Murphy and Willard in a new comedy sketch of their own creation. These comedians have a vein of their own which many have tried to imitate. They are possibly the funniest people that have been here this year. , The second feature is the Florenze troupe of acrobats in a return engage ment. The Florenze troupe will be re membered by Pantages' patrons as the most remarkable performers that ever appeared here. They will introduce a number of new sensational feats on the occasion of their second appearance. They axe far and away the best acro bats in the world today. Marion and Pearl have made good in the big Eastern cities with a talking acrobatic comedy act. which is replete with new turns and lively fun. Arthur Houston, the comedy Juggler, is like wise a clever man in his line, and stands on the top rung in the comedy Juggling business. Houston does many feats which no one has been able to imitate. Polk and Collins, singers and dancers, will appear here for the first time. They have been playing the Western vaude ville circuit rwith considerable success. Jean Wilson will sing a new illustrated song, and the biograph will spin off the latest thing In the moving picture line. When you see the moving pictures at Pantages you . see them for - the . first time. i Portland Symphony Orchestra Will Give Concert Series Under the Direction of Charles Dierke pr MONO th important attractions of " a busy musical season comes the announcement of the reorganization, on a now basis, of the Portland Symphony Orchestra, composed of 45 of this city's best Instrumental musicians, under the direction of Charles IWerke, well-known in musical circles. The concerts will only extend over a short season this year, the- first occurring March 23 and one each in April and May. The solo ist at one of these concerts will be Mrs. Beatrice Dierke, pianiste. Next year it is the, intention of the management to jrtve the concerts throughout the entire senson. Almost all cities support their own symphony orchestras, and In the past there havo been several creditable at tempts to do so In this city, but the finan cial burden each season rested on a few musical enthusiasts, and the at tempts were finally abandoned. The Boston Symphony Orchestra had Henry I,. Hlfrglnson to found and finance It, and the Thomas Orchestra had its 50 patrons who gave $1000 each every reason as a nucleus for tho orchestra rund. And so in all cases, these movements owe their existence to a few enterprising individ uals. Mrs. Kdna B. Jones, who is the busi ness manager of the newly organized Portland Symphony Orchestra, is ertlist inR the support of all having sufficient faith and taking enough interest in the establishment of the orchestra to sub m ribe in advance, and thereby give sub stantial basis to work. The interest and support of such well known citizens as W. M. Iadd. W. I. Wheelm-right, Paul Wessfnger, rr. A. K. Rockey. Theodore B- Wilcox. A. L. Mills. J. Wesley Ijuld. Walter J. Burns, W. B. Aver. C. A. Adams. R. X. Innian, C. B. S. Wood. Dr. A. A. Morrison and many others who have given their substantial approval to help make it a success, will A IllillliiiS' ' I Vfi3f:- I fiiiiiiii -ss surely spell success for these orchestral events. With the first concert, March 23. all those who re desirous of having such a musical organization in the city should help the work along. - Sweetbreads Are Luxuries, but They Help to Round Out a Menu Lilian Tingle Also Writes on the Preparation of Brains, and Calves', Sheeps or Pigs' Heads for the Table. SWEKTBREADS at local prices must decidedly be classed among the luxuries and can hardly claim a place in an article supposed to deal with "Economy in the Household": but I may perhaps be allowed to mention in passing that they are good baked, roasted, stewed, fried or broiled, and make a delicate salad, either alone with lettuce or in combination with grapefruit or with tomato and cucum ber. A combination of pineapple, pi mlento and sweetbread has been rec ommended to me, but I cannot speak of it from personal experience. Whatever method of cooking and serving the sweetbreads are to receive, the preliminary treatment is always the same. They are soaked in cold water (which should be changed once or twice) for about two hours, then put Into boiling salted water, with a little lemon Juice, and simmered five to ten minutes, according to size, until they are just firm but by no means hard. On reaching this point they are dropped into cold water for 10 or 15 minutes. This process Is 'called blanch ing. The sweetbreads should then be dried, trimmed and pressed between plates until cold. Then finish them off in any of the ways suggested above or serve in ttmbales or patty cases with some chotee sauce. Several famous sweetbread dishes can be imitated, with moderate suc cess, by the' use of brains both your own and those that can be bought at the meat market. The latter are usual - lv Inexpensive. They must be soaked and blanched before use, just Jike sweetbreads, and care must be exer cised in picking away all the stringy fibrous part of them. Here are some suggestions for further treatment: (1) Dry the prepared brains and lay them on slices of bacon In a deep frying pan or shallow stew pan. Cover with stock. Add half an onion (if liked) and a tiny piece of thin-cut lemon rind, simmer until the bacon is cooked- Thicken the liquor, add final seasoning i pepper, salt, cayenne, dash of lemon juice) and serve garnished with toast or fried bread. The flavor ing of the stock can of course be con siderably varied by the use of celery, herbs or mushrooms, and beaten egg yolk or cream can be used in thick ening where a rich dish is' desired; but of course with such additions the dish is not exactly an economical one. (2) Brush the prepared brains with oil. then roll in highly seasoned sifted bread crumbs.. Place on slices of bacon, and bake in the oven, basting with the bacon fat and browning nice ly. Serve on a bed of browned mashed potatoes, and accompany with a rather acid or piquant sauce. Or serve on toast with the sauce poured over. (2) Mince and mash up the prepared Do Your Eyes Tire?

Fine chopped parsley (or sase If liked), with a dash of irrated orange or lemon rind, white pepper, mace or nutmeg, and cayenne are suitable sea soning. A little onion juice can be used if approved, or the mixing bowl can be rubbed over with a cut clove of garlic. This mixture may be fried in little cakes or egg-and-crumbed and fried as croquettes, or used as a filling for potato croquettes. It is sometimes fried in tiny balls the size of a marble, and used for garnishing soups and other dishes. (4) A white sauce for lambs' tongues is sometimes made from minced pre pared brains, with cream thickening, and the usual plain cream sauce sea sonings, or the addition of a little sherry. Another .similarly made brain sauce has a little tomato pulp added and is served with macaroni or Italian pastes, accompanied with Parmesan or other dry grated cheese. A sheep's, calf's or pig's head is a little troublesome to prepare, if you belong to the "slap-dish school" of cookery; but these heads are usually Inexpensive to buy, and several highly esteemed dishes are prepared from them, besides the well-known "brawn" and "headcheese." Scottish cooks are particularly clever at such dishes and excel in their treatment of sheep's head. They make a good wholesome broth from It. with barley and vege tables (the "fireless cooker" would be helpful for this); they serve it as a ragout, a hash, a curry and even a pie. They stuff and brown It In the oven, after boiling until tender, and from the broth they make a substantial dish (the name of which I don't know) by thickening to stiffness with oatmeal and adding chopped onions and other seasonings. The best way of getting the exact details of preparation Is to catch an experienced Scotswoman, trained in Old Country, and be just as nice to Tier as you know how; then, if you seem intelligent and worthy of confidence, she may tell you traditional ways of preparing these dishes, which I. as a mere foreigner, would hardly venture to attempt, for fear of a sec ond Bannockburn. - A calf's head, says an old authority, "is one of the most useful and con venient items in the way of butcher's meat that a housewife can deal with, as there are so many ways, both hot and cold, in which it may be dressed and redressed." And since France is supposed to lead in matters of dressing, you may like to know a French recipe for "calTs head galantine." which, its maker says, is a suitable cold dish for luncheon or supper. Take half a calf's head, clean and blanche it. Remove the bones with a sharp-pointed knife. Spread the meat on a board, skin down. Season with salt, pepper, mace and minced parsley; cower with thin-cut slices of fried ham or bacon, hard-boiled sliced eggs and a little forcemeat (with chopped mush rooms, olives, truffles, pistachio nuts "and such small deer" to the extent permitted by the state of your pocket book) and roll up the head as tightly and neatly as possible in a scalded cloth. Tie up with tape and boil gent ly in stock or water for three or four hours, according to size. Take up, re roll In the cloth (which will be loose, owing to the shrinkage of the meat), tie, and place under a board with a weight on top until cold. Then trim, glaze and garnish with meat jelly, sliced lemon and sprigs of parsley. . I use the glaze and jelly the stock in which the galantine was boiled, clearing and seasoning it to taste, for a small household like mine does not boast a continuous supply of "glaze" and 'aspic" The galantine can also be served hot with brain, bechamel, oyster, poulette- or tomato sance. Bacon curls or the brain cakes previously men tioned may be used in place of the meat jelly as a garnish for the hot dish. include all the reigning sovereigns of the German Federal States.

(Special.) In the Duchy of Brunswick, which has only re cently recovered from the turmoil caused by the shattering of the dynastic preten sions of the Duke of Cumberland, there is wailing and gnashing of teeth over the revolutionary "clothes policy" of the new regent, Duke Johann Albrecht. The Duke, who Is fresh from Mecklenberg Schwerin, where they seem to do these things better, finds the court attire of the burghers of Brunsick too simple. His Royal Highness has accordingly banned plain evening dress for men at court functions and has decreed that silken knee-breeches, with sword and silver buckled shoes, shall henceforth be com pulsory. This is more rigid than the etiquette the Kaiser enforces at the Ber lin court, where evening dress is still de rtgeur. The Duchess supports Duke Johann's dress-reform movement by ordering the ladies of Brunswick to discard kid foot wear to appear at court in satin slippers. The Duke also prescribes' that the clergy of the Duchy shall wear in private life the "Luther gown," a flow ing garment, modeled after the apos tles' robes. Clergymen are to wear this both In their own homes and in public One of the Duke's latest de crees commanded the shaving off of the Court Chaplain's cherished mus tache. The Emperor is organizing a bril liant pilgrimage to Vienna. He will head it himself, and the company will CHAUFFEUR SENT TO JAIL Must Serve . at Hard Labor for Drunken Ride. LONDON, Feb. 29.

Rueton, a chauffeur, for being drunk while In charge of an electric brougham in Bishopgate street. A constable who watched the car's career said he saw it .swerve to the near side, mount the footway, dash across the road, jump the pathway, go through the gates of the Devonshire Hotel, charge two swing entrance doors, bringing them, with the fan light and side-paneling, to the ground, collide with an Inner door, and knock down a lot of brickwork BILL BAD . FOR German BUSINESS Protest Over Merchants Policy Toward Poland. BERLIN. March 7. (Special.) Even among the loyal German inhabitants of the province of Posen the Polish expropriation le exciting lively appre hensions and marked hostility. The large German landed proprietors are circulating a petition against the meas- mr preneniauon to the Upper House. The German shopkeepers in the town of Posen are obtaining signatures for an address to the Burgomaster. The address says: "Tho strained situation in our prov-' ince has already produced an unfavor able effect upon trade. We who are actively engaged in business see in the expropriation bill an Immense danger, which would more or less unfavorably affect every German who is engaged in trade in our province." On the first day of its circulation the petition was signed by about 100 Ger man firms. Including the leading ones, and its promoters are assured that it will obtain thousands of German sig natures throughout the province. Dalzell Brown's Trial Set. SAN FRANCISCO. March 7. The trial of J. Dalzell Brown, indicted on the charge of embezzlement in connection with the failure of the California Safe Deposit & Trust Company for about $9,. 000.000, of which institution he was the general manager, was today set by Su perior Judge Dunne for trial on March 23.
