Her lips were dry and arid, her movement and gestures imperious; her voice was -sonorous, and her utter ance rapid and energetic" She. gave him the idea, he adds, "of creative gen ius taking the form of a woman desti tute of beauty."

BV ARTHUR A GREENE. kERHAPS the chief charm of Izetta Jewel, either on or oft the stage is her girlish simplicity. First and above all else she is wholesome whether she Is enacting a role or Is In her own proper person. Her acting is character ized by its freedom from theatricallsm and that is one of the chief reasons why I feel safe In predicting that her new 1 school methods will make her an impor tant star in the near future. It naturally follows that In private life she is unaffected and rather domestically Inclined. Site knows how to cook a meal, to make a shirtwaist or sweep a floon Essentially feminine, she is. however, an excellent horsewoman and unquestion ably the most skillful chauffeuse in Ore gon. In fact, she drives her handsome touring car with all the assurance and eertatnty of an experienced man. She llnows the mechanism of an automobile, too, and should things go wrong she knows what tools to use and how to use them. For some months she, her mother, Mrs. Kenney, and her younger sister. Hazel, have been livlns at the beautiful country home of Mrs. 11. XV. Beakey, about a mile north of the Ladd Farm. Here the talented young actress rests from the wearing labor of the theater. In simple little glnsham frocks, her head bare, thoughtless of tan. she spends much of her time in the open, helping with the work of the farm and having Just the best time anybody could have. She takes particular pride in a flock of blooded chickens and one of her tasks is the feed- I ROSEMARY GLOSZ PICKED FROM BRILLIANT ARRAY OF TALENT Star of Savage's "Merry Widow" Company Has.Had Advantage of Finest Training in This Country and Abroad. HENRY W. SAVAGE has a most peculiar way of keeping a super abundance of talent on hand, especially when it comes to voices. When lie produced his phenomenally successful grand opera, "Madam Butter fly." he had the signatures of no less than six prima donnas to contracts to sing the title role. Another case in point Is that of "The Merry Widow," and. strange to say, Mr. Savage had contracts with the same number, all of .-hom created a furore in New York iirthe part of Sonia. They were Ethel Jackson, ,I.ina Abarbanell, Rosemary Glosz. Lois Elwell, Keba rale and Georgia Caine. . Miss Rosemary Glosz, who has sung the title role In New York over 200 " times, drew her salary for six months before having a chance to sing the I.ehar music, since which time she has not missed a performance. This was the reason that Mr. Savage decided to have her sing "The Merry Widow" on tour. Miss Glosz, although born in Boston, is the daughter of Glosz, the famous furrier, and a grand-daughter of Co'onel N. E. Mehesy, the Hungari an patriot who came to this country w.lth Kossuth. lts Glosz received her musical edu cation in Paris, and was a pupil of the great Julianl. Before she had been in Paris a year. Juliani was asked to send his most wonderful pupil to London to sing before the King and Queen. He selected Miss Glosz. and Immediately her name was upon every tongue, and next her father's and mother's native country sent for her. and her entry into Buda-Pesth was an event long to be remembered. Then came St. Peters burg. Berlin and Vienna. It was in the latter place that Mr. Savage first heard Miss Glosz, and as she was of Hungarian descent, possessed of such a wonderful voice, he immediately se cured her signature to a contract to sing the title role in "The Merry Widow," the rights for which he had. at that time. Just secured from Herr Frans Lehar. It is understood that m social and musical circles In this city elaborate preparations are under way to give Miss Gloss a very charming reception, both at the theater and at their homes, as many have enjoyed her hospitality in the foreign capitals. Famed Beauty Honored. PARIS, Juna 6. (.Special.) Tho pro- - V f - n, gk .v ing of them. She knows how to hitch up a horse and on occasion becomes dairy maid and milks the cows. One day during garden-making time I watched her, amused, while she dropped potatoes in the furrows, while the man covered them with a hoe. She took the affair seriously, however, and resented my gibes. It was a- matter of business with her and no mere posing. She spends much time in her motor car, going to and from the theater and the farm, and every Wednesday, when there is no rehearsal, she takes a party of friends on a long all-day road run. Miss Jewel Is interesting any way you take her a remarkable young woman and the best part of it all is her natural ness and her sunny disposition. Owing to a recurrence of a somewhat serious stomach trouole, William Gleason was compelled to retire from the cast of "The Girl or the Golden West" on Tues day. It is believed that he will be able to return to his part, Sonora, today. All concerned should be well pleased with the action of the fire chief and buil. ing inspector in putting a two-year limit on the frame theaters. The public has a right to demand an improvement in our playhouses and the managers are given all they could reasonably ask In the way of due notice. The closing of the Heilig was warranted, perhaps, but the manage ment si.ould, In all fairness, have been given more time. Notice should have been served months ago. : , - k' J.

Nat Goodwin is sore on American dramatists and says he'll never again produce home-mader plays. He told me last week that Jn the future he will select his plays from 'the London and other for eign stages after they have been tried out. He's bound to see wnat he's eettinc It is riot surprising that he feels a tritle peevish, for he certaintly has had the devil's own time getting a suitable vehicle these latter years. Just how much of his numerous failures is to be charged to bad plays and how much to himseu, however. It is difficult to say. Mr. Goodwin is also outspoken in his condemnation of the- "nasty" drama now unfortunately so much in . vogue. And right here, I want to remark, parenthetic ally, that no matter what his faults, Goodwin has always been Identified with decent plays. He was particularly ex plosive when discussing Eugene Walter's Dig sensation, "The Easiest Way," which he declares leaves nothing unexplained concerning - certain phases of life. But he gives Walter credit for being what lie cauea a "Dally genius. . Goodwin seemed mad at. himself arid the world when he was here. He "roast ed ; tne Portland Hotel and said . the only place In, town he'd been able .to get- a square meal was out at the Golf Club. Nobody, of course, can know just what causes tnis grouch of Nat s, but the wise ones are guessing.

During a portion of her stay she lived on Richmond Hill, the view from which she characterized as "calm and animated; that which was to be and that which I am not." Madame de Stael's published impressions of Eng land reveal a poor opinion of "English conversation. Lord Dudley being the only man she met who talked to her approval Hookham Frere. however. uttered a witticism in her- presence, though not in her hearing. "I should like to be married In English," she de clared once, "in a language in which vows are so faithfully kept." "What language was she married in?" mur mured some one on the outer fringe of her circle of admirers. "Broken English. I suppose.' answered Frere. News Notes o! Portland High Schools. Washington.

The girls of the June "09 class held a candy sale Thursday in the lunch room. Home-made candies were sold to ready buyers to the profit of the fair dealers and- to the entovmnnt of tne Duyers. The Quillers have decided to have tneir second "occasional quack next Wednesday. This time the scene of the festivities will be the residence of Earl Hammond, one of the devoted members of that Illustrious organiza ion. since tne nrst quack was such a success tne Quillers are all dellsrhted at the prospect of another one and It is expected that every Qulller will be prsent. rain' or shine. - Friday being the last dav of recita tions was of course the most welcome day yet. One demonstration of Joy On this account was the lighting of a large bunch of very audible firecrackers in the basement by annonymous cele brants. Although the manual training work is not quite completed yet, it Is ex pected that it will all be completed be fore the last day of school. The show ing made by the manual training de partment this term excels that of anv previous term which is. of course, say ing muen. It is probable that an ex hibit will be held this week and If such is the case it will -be. very well, worth seeing. The pieces "include a carved phonograph cabinet, some'earved tables. writing desk, some cabinets and bookcases, a hall stand," a piano seat, several carved tabourets: Besides these there are many other pieces which tend to make this term's showing a good one. The class in woodturnlng has also made some very good pieces this term. Lincoln. RECITATIONS at the Lincoln High School closed Friday.

The various societies are giving festivities in hon or of their graduating members. The Adelprians went on a picnic up John son Creek Saturday. The Phllolexians gave a launch party Saturday evening to be followed by a party after com mencement. The February class '10 is planning a' steamer excursion for Mon day," the 14thl in honor of the graduat ing class.' The Modos have set Friday, June! . 18,- for a picnic at Gladstone Park. . . This week witnesses the close of the athletic ' season for the Lincoln High School. Although the cardinal colors have not-been- so -uniformly victorious as' in the past, yet the boys feel that they1 have helped to furnish good "sport. -The : track team has entered several men'Jn the Interscholastic meet Satur day.; The athletic board at their meeting Friday, conferred letters on the members of the baseball team and the track team. The baseball men are Patterson, Manager Dabrley, Thompson, Turk, Keep, Morgan, Vosper, Reed, Brace, McAlpin and Dowling. The report of the treasurer showed that the season, was closed with a bal ance of $40 on hand. This is consid ered a good showing, te.king into ac count the fact that the association had to pay out $200 for coaching. The baseball team met Friday to elect' the captain for the .season of 1910-11. The choice fell upon Chester Thompson, this . season 8 twirler.. The honor conferred upon Mr. Thompson is a fitting .recognition of his faithful services. Monday Musical Club in Concert .. BT JOSEPH M.

I do not see any fit reason why at recitals and so cial events a reader should not ap pear on the same programme with musicians, and -represent.- the literary side. Mrs. Butterworth has a most pleasing accent and voice and her work is marked by literary intelligence of a high order. Miss Elizabeth Harwas, soprano, created more than usual in terest and her fine voice was heard to advantage In a Verdi number, followed by a lullaby. The other singers were M1gs Katharine Davis, Miss Metta Brown, Mrs. Millie Perkins, Miss Beals, arid a quartet con sisting of Miss Katharine Davla. Miss Anna Rankin, .Mrs. Ernest Laidlaw and Miss Sara Glance. Mrs. Estelle C. Berry gave a, violin solo and Mrs. Enia Connell Jesse and Mrs. Frankle Richet Walker each gave a piano solo. - Mrs. Walker played a solo of her own composition, a dainty, melodious offering, entitled "Ode to Pan."
