MARY A DELE CASE has found her
old friends and actuftintances
very much interested In her work
inre she left Portland and the recital
to be given by her at the Bungalow
Theater Monday. July S. promises to
be a decided success. !iss Case pos
sesses a rich contralto voice which
shows the splendid training she had
under Frank King Clark In Paris. She
is an Indefatigable worker and has the
pluck to go out into the musical world
and work her way.
Three vears ago in San Francisco
Mme. Gadskl heard Miss Case sing
and told her she had one of the most
beautiful natural contralto voices she
had ever heard. She assured the young
singer the musical profession was the
most difficult to succeed in and it
meant manv trials and heartaches, but
since she has learned of Miss Cases
advancement, the great soprano wrote
her encouraging her and told her she
hoped vet to sing In opera with her.
This, of course. Is the dream of Miss
Case-s life.
Miss Case has been fortunate In be
ing asoclated with Harol.l Bauer, whom
the world considers a great artist. The
tour with Mr. Bauer last season was
a big factor In her musical educa-
San Francisco Will Copy New
York System of Fire Protection
Fire Chief Shaughnessy Sent East to Study Auxiliary Salt Water System
of Great Metropolis Governor Gillett Praised for Good Roads.
BY HARBT B. SMITH
THE Supervisors of San Francisco
this week voted to appropriate
Jjooy to be expended In sending
Fire Chief Shaughnessy East on a tour
of inspection of the various high press
ure water systems used in Eastern
cities, particularly the salt water sys
tem In use in New York.
San Francisco Is determined that
within the next few years there shall
be installed under its streets such a
network of hign pressure salt water
mairs that a recurrence of the confla
gration that followed the earthquake
of li shall be an Impossibility, and
the purpose is to profit by the experi
ence of the different municipalities
where such svstems are already in use,
so that the San Francisco system shall
contain all of the advantages and none
of the drawbacks which have been
brought to the notice of the engineers
in tne East.

should not perform another official act

tion. The" rrltlcs throughout England
spoke of her artistic interpretations,
and this was due in a large measure
to her studies with Mr. Bauer as we'l
as Mr. Clark. It was during her tour
with Mr. Bauer that Fritz Krlcsler
heard her sing and engaged her to ac
company him on his next tour of the
British Isles. The bookings for this
tour are being completed- now and it
will follow directly after his season
In the I'nited States.
This offer has been a great Inspira
tion to Miss Case, who considers it
also a reward for her hard work. Miss
Case has an offer to go into the cast
of the grand opera in Paris when she
returns this Fall, but has not consid
ered it at all. as she intends coach
ing for opera with some one of the
great masters.
From oregAn City to Paris is a
long distance in the musical world,
when one must travel on merit alone,
and this Miss Case has had to do. She
has worked her way and is an examrle
of what pluck and hard work will ac
complish. Her programme will In
clude Schubert. Strauss. Brahms.

other ever since his accession to office,
and has made thrilling speeches in favor
of a modern highway reaching from the
northern to the southern boundary of
the commonwealth.
It is believed now that his earnest
work is going to bear fruit, as the people
are worked up to such a pitch that strong
societies, having for their aims the tak
ing up of the propaganda for good roads,
are rapidly organizing in every section.
Such an influence is bound to bear re
sults In the near future.
New Club Is Freak.
A freak In the way of a society club
made its appearance at the St. Francis
Hotel a few days ago. when a number
of San Francisco's most prominent young
society leaders banded themselves togeth
er in an organization called the San
Francisco No Hat Club. 3uch well
known names as Tobin. McAllister. Dte
told. Ereuner. Bellew, etc.. appeared on
the roster of the club.
When the name of the new organiza
tion was noised about, it was feared that
an invasion upon the rights of the fair
sex to adorn her person with the late
sizeable creations of the milliner, was
about to be made, but it turned out later
that the real object of the club Is to pro
mote the growth and health of capil
lary adornment.
Several of the young men have been

NEW AIRSHIPS FOR KAISER
Two Powerful Dirigibles Being
Built, One With Wireless.
BERLIN. July 17. (Special.) De
tails are now published of two new
German airships. One. which will
shortly be begun at the well-known
j I-anz Machine Works at Mannheim, is
. a wooden vessel designed by Professor
I Schutte. of Danzig. It will be consid
erably more powerful than the Zeppe
lins, will have a gas capacity of 19,000
cubic meters, and will be driven by
motors of between 500 horsepower and
600, horsepower. The inventor expects
to 'develop a speed of from 35 to 45
miles an hour.
This vessel is built on the Zeppelin
"rigid" system, but the use of wood
instead, of aluminum will render pos
sible the employment of wireless teleg
raphy, which is impracticable in the
Zeppelins.
The second new vessel is approach
ing completion at the works of the
Sieiens Schuckert Company, near Ber
lin. It is equipped with four motors of
125 horsepower each. The vessel,
which is of the non-rigid type, is 420
feet long. 43 feet diameter, and has a
gas capacity of 13,000 cubic meters. The
navigator of the vessel will be Captain
Krogh. a famous army aeronaut.
NEW WAR TEST FOR AUTOS
Experiment to Be Made With Cars
as Blockade Runners.
LONDON, July . 1". (Special.) The
Essex Automobile Club is organizing a
fleet of 50 motor-cars, for an experi
ment to test the capacity of a swift car
In a new use during war time. First at
Chelmsford, then from Warley Barracks
and more recently In the dash to
Hastings, the value of motor-cars, light
and heavy. for the rapid trans
portation of troops. as an alter
native to the railway, has been
amply proved. What the Essex Auto
mobile Club now intends doing is to
demonstrate the posibillty of employing
a motor-car for blockade running.
The test is to be- made on Saturday
next. It will be assumed that Chelms
ford has been surrounded by the enemy,
and that there is urgent need to get
dispatches through to the beleaguered
town. The motor-cars will as??mble at
Brentwood and ach driver will choose
his own route. Riding with the driver
of every car will be a Territorial officer,
and each car will carry a distinguishing
flag.
"The enemy" will have a very closely
drawn cordon of scouts in cars guarding
the approaches to Chelmsford. Directly
one of the blockade running cars is
