"Gulden Legend." with other tiljrh-oltms

April. UK.
Arrangement are about consummated
whereby C. A. Shaw, the musical iinpret
aarlo. In conjunction with the Koiliir Tnea
ter management. Is able to mane Ihs defi
nite announcement of this coming musical
treat. The recent musical 'estiva: li this
city, participated in by the C'hlcaa Sym
phony Orchestra and Portland Cnoinl So
ciety of y0 voices, was -uch a great ar
tistic success that It was decided to If
possible duplicate It In respjne to a pop
ular demand to that effect.
It Is universally admitted that Victor
Herbert is the greatest living American
romposer. and as a symphony director
he ranks among the hlgheat In the pio
feslon. Before he gained such fame as
a composer he was a celebrated 'cello
soloist, and he Is' such a natural musician
that lie can be trusted to bring with him
an orchestra selected with the most criti
cal cure and calculated to please. The
engagement will be for three nights and
one afternoon matinee, and allhc-jh the
music to be selected has not yet absolute
ly been decided upon, it is likely that for
one-half of the first choral nigh: the
Portland Thorn! Society will sing Verdi's
"Requiem, ' and for the last choral night
Sir Arthur Sullivan's "Golden Leirenu."
The list of music will, of course, be ex
tended. The membership of the Porl'nnd
Choral Society, which consuls at the
present time of 30 voices, will be ro'sed
to tnn, the additional voics beins seed
ed ones. The society will be organ ieif In
September on a permanent basis, with of
ficers of Its own. and will b; inrorpi
rated. It will In every way represent a
highly trained chorus.

There will be no subsection list for

the direction of the Heillg Theater man

TASK OF THE DRAMATIST
Must Keep One Eye on Heaven, the
Other on the Box-Offlce.
I)NDON, April 18. In a speech that
bristled with epigram. Alfred Sutro. the
popular dramatist, described to an audi
ence at the WorKlngmen's College,
Oowndale road, N. W., the whole duty
of the modern playwright as he con
ceived It. He said:
"The dramatist must recognire the
fact that he has to write for a crowd.
To have Influence on his generation he
must lift ore eye to heaven, but the
other must be squinted at the bbxofftee.
"Woman is the autocrat of the theater,
and the frown of the suburbs Is the
death knell of the plrfy.
"The fict that the public of the play
does not care for an author's work is
no guarantee that posterity will reverse
the verdict.
"To a large section of the public the
actor Is the thing not the play. Though
they will not go to see even a 'star In
a bad play, they will not go' to see a
good play without him."
WILL PLAY "PEER GYNT" SUITE
Second Portland Symphony Orchestra Concert Will Be Notable Event
Mrs, Walter Reed and Henry Bettman the Soloists.
IN the Portland Symphony Orchestra
Portland now has an orchestra of Its
own and one it may well be proud of.
and all who have not heard 1t should
do so st the next concert, Wednesday
t venlng. May 6. '
When It Is considered that these
musicians have not been playing to
gether year in and year out under the
i.me baton, the first concert was tn
Wd a credit to them and their efficient
leader, Charles Dierke. Even those
most sanguine of success for the or
chestra had to marvel at the work done
in so short a time. One may easily
expert the second concert to be an im
provement on the first, as the orchestra
has been working together diligently
since then and has a very attractive
programme to onr. The "Peer Gnt"
suite of Oreig will interest the sym
phony patrons particularly.
The rulers of Scandinavia have set
tke world a noble example by their
treatment of native men of genius,
lirleg, for instance, was honored with
nn annuity which enabled him to give
up the drudgery of teaching and con
ducting and devote himself to compos
ing end making his works known at
home and abroad. Here where we
struggle along to support our orches
tra a and this for our education and
pleasure t'lis does seem a noble ex
ample indeed.
Brought Close lo Ihscn.
It was the writing of the music to
' Peer (iynt" which brought GrieW into
close association with Ibsen, Ibsen's
Peer Oynt will live always through
Ortcg's music, which has more poetry
and artistic intelligence in every num
ber than the whole five-act monstrosity
of Ibsen.
I bsn's poem has been summarised
as follows:
The character of Peer Gynt Is taken
from a Norwegian folk legend. He Ms
a sort of a Norse Faust; a man destined
to lie lured on to destruction by his
own imagination unless he Is saved by
a woman. Peer Gynt Is a peasant boy,
living with his mother in extreme pov
erty; the boy's head teems with Ideas
and grand plans for his future and his
mother, though not blind to his fan
tastic wildness. cannot help believing
In him. His youthful arrogance is un
bounded; he goes- to a weddln and
carries off the young bride Solvejg to
the mountains, where he afterwards
deserts her.
Finds Refuse Among Kings.
Hp then roams about and at last finds
refuge In the halls of the Mountain
King of the Hover Mountains, where
he falls in love with the King's daugh
ter, but is expelled from the palace
upon his love being discovered. Re
turning1 home he finds his mother,
Asase. on her deathbed. She expires
in Peer's arms. Later he turns up in
Africa, where he goes among the
Arabs and plays the prophet and makes
love to the beautiful Anitra, daughter
of the Bedouin chief. In the last act,
Peer Gynt. after being shipwrecked on
the Norwegian coast, returns to the
hut in the forest. where he finds
Solvejg awaiting his return, and dies
as she sings the tearful melody known
as "olvejg'B Cradle Song."
The Portland Symphony Orchestra
will give the prelude to the fourth act
-"Morning Mood'' a pleasing idyll
with dancing lights of flute trills; the
sorrowful, quiet andante on the dath
of Asasc. Peer's mother; the dainty
dance of Anitra, charming in invention
and orchestrated with magic art; fin
ishing with the dance in the hall of
the Mountain Kings with its ever in
creasing whirl and vivacity, its sempre
crescendo and sempre strello al fine.
Mrs. Walter Reed and Henry Bett
man. violinist, are the soloists for this
concert. This is Mrs. Reed's really
first' big appearance in some time, and
this announcement will undoubtedly be
received enthusiastically by. her many
admirers and pupils. Mrs. Reed's rich,
deep contralto voice will be hoard to
splendid advantage with the orchestra.
Mrs. Reed's numbers will be announced
later. .
Henry .Bettman. the other soloist,
will give Wieniawsky's Polonaise In
A major. This will he a real treat to
lovers of the violin and wll be Mr.
Bettman's first appearance In concert
work in Portland.
Eugene Music Festival Makes Good
Tine Renditions of "Holy City'1 and "Golden Legend' Orchestra Plays
Trom Vocal Score.
BY J. M- Ql'F,NTIN
PEOPI-E at the upper end of the Wil
lamette Valley, and surrounding
towns are still talhing of the musi
cal and educational treat Rugene exper
ienced at its music festival just concluded.
April IHS, lS, will be long rememhered
by musical enthusiasts, for on these dates
Jhe Eugene Oratorio Society gave a ser
ies of concerts with the Chicago Sym
phony Orchestra.
Bugene was in holiday attire, gay flags
fluttered in her streets, many visitors
were present, and the weather was on Its
bst behavior. The committee of man
asement made the event a red-letter oc
casion and the hero of It all was Pro
fessor Irving M. Glen, who drilled the
vocal chorus, was head and shoulders of
the event, and with fine muslcianly and
executive ability at two of the three con
certs directed both chorus and orchestra
in these two cantatas, Alfred R. Gaul's
"Holy City" and Dudley Buck's "Golden
lecnd." The Chicago Symphony Orches
tra, under the direction of Herr Adolph
R.isenheeker. gave one orchestral con
cert ai;l played the accompaniments at
the two choral events. Herr Rosenbecker
and his orchestra proved their versatility
at the rendition of Gaul's "Holy City"
by playing from the ordinary vocal score
instead of the orchestral score. Musi
cians w!!l at once appreciate what this
means. Only one orchestra out of 100
louWI do it.
When attending the five Portland con
certs of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
I said all the nice things 1 could think
of concerning the. orchestra, its musicians,
director and the soul-stirring things they
played. Words, mere words, cant do
more. So. on this occasion I won't talk
much orchestra. I rather wish. now.
to speak as appreciatively as possible of
the magnificent singing and cleverness of
the r.:sene Oratorio Society, about 175
strong, who sans Ike a veteran chorus
snd after only 15 rehearsals. Wonderful:
Rarely during a long experience an a
music crank and vocal studenthave I
heard the fine enunciation and phrasing
of this chorus excelled. Their speaking
was a delightful feature and when Pro
fessor Glen swung his baton, they sang
as with one voice. To be sure, they ought
to sneak better in song than other people
who do not have the'r college advantages.
It was a revelation to see such a rosy
cheeked, clear-eyed, healthy-looking stu
dent body of boys and girls all under the
spell of music for two entire days, and
acquitting themselves' so welt. Many of
the singers and people in the audience
had never befor heard a high-class sym-

that they had come, to "take in" the con

The chorus singing In the "Holy City"
was not so steady as in the "Golden
Liegend." the singing of the latter mem
bers being marked with more confidence.
The male voice chorus was a pleasing
novelty, and among the mixed voices the
best was the alto section. The tone of
the soprano, while commendable, was
sometimes dull. But for young voices,
it was very creditable.
I don't know what others may think,
but to me the biggest thing at the Eu
gene music festival was the ease with
which Rosenbecker and his .men played
the accompaniment to the "Holy City"
from the vocal snore that is. without the
orchestration. The latter has got lost
on the road, somewhere. But that didn't
scare the musicians. Professor Glen con-dnot-ed,
Rosenbecker played first violin

Japanese Color Prints
at Art Museum
A
FEW very fine Japanese color
prints are now shown in the glass
case at the Art Museum, together with
some other choice examples of Ori
ental art. It Is the Idea of the man
agement to show in this case a selec
tion of beautiful objects, a few at a
tim so arranged as tp give pleasure
without the weariness attendant on a
large exhibition: Such a little exhibit
as this may be repeatedly studied
with profit. The wonderful command
of line, ttie brilliant effects produced
by the varied juxtaposition of a few
colors, the decorative use of the fine
black masses shown In these simple
prints are an inspiration to the artist
and a delight to the amateur.
Some characteristic Utamaros are
shown in rarely line condition, retain
fng the original exquisite delicacy of
color. TJtamaro It was who first at
tracted European artists and so
strongly influenced their work. But
some charming examples of the primi
tive Harunobu are also exhibited and
the whole selection, though small,
suggests the great range and variety
of artistic expression developed in this
unpretentious medium. The, prints are
from the collection of Mrs. William M.
Ladd.
Among the other objects shown th
following may be especially noticed :
An iron vase by a modern Japanese
artist, which waa shown In the fine
arts department at the St. txuis ex
position, beautifully decorated in a
wave design In low relief, lent by j
L. A. Lewisj a bronze tiger, mod- i
ern Japanese, lent by Mrs. C. H.
Lewis; a rare old Chinese manuscript
case of carved jade, some exquisitely .
carved boxes in the same material, to- :
gether with a number of Chinese ;
snuff bottles, beautiful In color and
design, from the collection of Mrs. W. i
S. Ladd. The Corean bronze ase is ;
several centuries old and some good
pieces of old lacquer are also shown. !
This exhibit, with the carbon photo-
graphs of famous portraits now on the j
walls, will remain until removed to give
niece to the first exhibition of the
Arts and Crafts Society the middle of
May, This Arts and Crafts show and
the coming of F. V. DuMond to
give a six weeks course of instruc
tion from May I, are encouraging
events to those Interested In the im
portant work of developing the artistic
capacities latent in our community.
SNUFF IS STILL POPULAR
Use Is Increasing in Larger Towns
of England.
DUBLIN, April 18. (Special. )-Snuff-maklng
is a considerable Industry in Ire
land, and It would be interesting to learn
if the practice of snuff-taking remains as
common as it was. In Bngland it is large

amount Is consumed at the General Post
office, and both wholesale and retail
drapery establishments are excellent cus
tomers of the snuff-makers.
"The bulk of snuff-takers are women
of the working classes in the North of
England, who would think It improper to
smoke," says the representative of a large

a ton of snuff to Newcastle every month.
