An afternoon of original compositions seems at first glance to be somewhat of a risky un dertaking, but the auocess of the splen did programme, arranged by Frederick W. Goodrich, more than Justified the experiment. Every number on the pro gramme was received with enthusiasm by the large audience present. All the compositions were so good that it would be manifestly unfair to select any one for mention mors than an other. The composers represented were Rev. Father Dominic. O. S. B. of Mount Angel: Earl Cranston Sharp, M. B. Palaclos. Albert De'Caprlo, Mrs. Ed ward Alden Beals. Luclen E. Becker, Harry E. Van Dyke and Frederick W. Goodrich. The numbers received able interpretation at the hands of Mrs. Raymond A. Sullivan. Mrs. Slgrld Carl, Miss Clara Howell, William P. Boone, Earl Cranston Sharp, Luclen E. Becker, Albert De Caprlo, Harry E. Van Dyke, Mrs. Beals snd Frederick W. Good rich. The latter has promised to ar range a second programme of Oregon compositions, in about a month. The lecture-recital at the Methodist Church, South, by Mr. Goodrich, on. "The Organ and Its Composers," was something new In musical events in this city. It Is not every day we listen to a church organist of recognised ability like Mr. Goodrich, and first hear him describe In well chosen words the character of the compositions he is to play, and then listen to his playing on the pips organ the musical compositions re ferred to. This Is what happened and the event was quits a pleasant suc cess. The church was well filled by an attentive audience. Mr. Goodrich's interesting lecture on the history and value of the pipe organ began with the early Christian church and we were gradually Introduced to the pipe organ as we know It today. His or gan selections Included compositions by J. S. Bach. F. Capocci. Cad man. Wolatenholme, Massenet. Dvorak. Gold mark. Dubois. Uullmant. and Best. Mr. Goodrich's playing was a treat, and he ably sustained his reputation as one of the most finished pipe organ ists in the Pacific Northwest. Miss Jane Irene Burns, soprano, sang two numbers In fine style, her piano accom paniment being Mlas Florence Foster. Mrs. Sylvia McGulre gave, with ex cellent expression, two readings, with organ accompaniment by Mr. Goodrich. The solo pianist was Mrs. Ella Connell Jesse, who rendered with much artis tic ability a fine Interpretation of Liszt's "Twelfth Rhapsody." This num ber was played entirely from memory quite a musical feat In Itself and Mrs. Jesse's work was so good that It stamps her as a pianist of whom this city should be and Is, proud. Mr. and Mrs. Frederick W. Goodrich entertained the choir of EL Mary's Cathedral and other friends to a "Twelfth Night Party" at their resi dence on the night of vOld Christmas Day. Music galore was the order of the occasion, and the classical was pleasantly blended with numerous specimens of rollicking "ragtime." A Isrge number accepted the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Goodrich. Including Rev. H. J. McDevltt. Rev. George Thompson. Dr. and Mrs. George Par rlsh. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Harter, Mr. and Mrs. Ewell, Mr. and Mrs. Scott Kent. Mr. and Mrs. Malchester, Mr. and Mrs. Crulckshank. Mr. and Mrs. S. A. McCartney, Mrs. McXeally, Mrs. Murray, Misses Lucille Dunne. Irene Flyon, J. Frltsch, A. Glandli. J. Mc- V! .-V. .

The guests separated with the singing of the old farewell. "Good Night, Ladles." Mrs. Edward Alden Beals will pre sent in vocal recital Miss Wlnnlfred Lewis, soprano. Tuesday night, at 163 Sixteenth street North, when Miss Lewis will be assisted by Miss Carmel Sullivan, pianist, and Miss Oraoe Jen nings, violinist, of St. Mary's Academy. "System as Essential to All True Education," waa the subject of an in teresting lecture given by Miss Mabel Rose Carpenter, pianist, yesterday af ternoon. After the lecture. Miss Car penter played In an abla manner a group of Chopin waltses. The, Treble Clef Club has Just fin ished studying D'Indy's "Sur la Mer," a beautiful chorus for four parts, and last meeting took up the study of "The Blessed Damoxel (Debussy). Both these . compositions are written In the style of the modern French school and will have their Initial performance at a publlo musicals given early In Febru ary, under the direction of Mrs. Rosa Reed Hanscome. The words of "The Blessed D&mosel" are taken from a poem by Dante Gabriel Rossettl, and In this connection a correspondent writes to this department: "Dante Ga briel Rossettl wrote The Blessed Damo xel' In bis 19th year, or in the early half of 1S47. Hall Calno Is the au thority for the statement that The Blessed Damoxel' grew out of Roseettl's youthful love for Poe's 'Raven.' Ros settl said Poo had done the utmost it was possible to do with the grief of the lover on earth, so he determined to reverse the conditions and give utter ance to the lamenting of the loved one In heaven. In the first two stanzas the damoxel la described as she leaned out from the gold bar of heaven,' clothed In her celestial robes, with the three lilies In her bended arm and the seven stars In her hair, "her hair that lay along her back, yellow Ilka ripe corn.' It was from this description that Ros settl painted the damozel. years later. The poem goes on to tell of her long ing for her lover, and her plans for him when he should come to her; and how shs would take him to the shrine of Prayer, the Tree of Life, and to the grove where the Lady Mary is. and receive her blessing on their love; then go before Christ the Lord, and ask of him that she and ber lover might live with love through all eternity." The musical programme of the next Euterpean Society meeting; January 31, Is under the direction of Mrs. Rose Reed Hanscome. Musical numbers will bs the compositions of Schubert. Mrs. Reed Hanscome Is most fortunate In having Francis RIchter, that talented young artist for the piano solos. Mr. Rlchter's recent appearances In publlo have stamped him as a pianist of the first rank among younger American virtuosi, and have won him a host of warm admirers. Some of the most fa mous of Schubert's songs will on that occasion be sung by Mrs. Reed Hans come. e Thursday night Miss Dorothea Nash, ths pianist, will lecture at S70 Couch street on "Music of the Hebrews, Greeks and Chinese: Ode to Pindar; Ode to Apollo, and Development of the Dla tonlo Scale." e . e Few professional singers, recruited from the ranks of society In the last decade, have so Impressed the musical publlo as Miss Alice Preston, of New York, -who has just made her debut In song recital before one of the smart est and most critical assemblages. When Miss Preeton sang privately for the late Helnrtch Conrled, director of the Metropolitan opera company at the time Caruso made his first American appearance, the impresario predicted for her a brilliant future. Realizing that the society leader could not be secured for his own great organization, he agreed with Miss Preston that her career would be benefited through ad ditional study abroad, especially If she were able to do certain work with Jean de Reszke. The fulfillment of this pre diction has now corns true, as may be gathered from the critical Indorse- WELL-KNOWN BARITONE - ' - - ' A V ' - : -. - . - -' , i V V yFj : "t"i,-i EMTtfO ms GOGORZA.

Appearances of widespread musical and social in terest are soon to be made by Miss Preston In Washington, D. C. Boston, Philadelphia and New Orleans. Rlcardo Martin, leading tenor with Caruso at the- Metropolitan Opera-House.- has agreed to hear promising American tenors, with the view to ad vising them as to the possibilities In opera and to suggest the best methods possible to their success. His consent to act In the capacity of expert coun selor was given to a prominent New York society woman, at. her urgent re quest, and for the sole cause of ad vancing American singers In opera.

Whitney the name of the virtuosi who had been chosen to lead the or chestras In America through the Intrl- John Land, a Well-Known Musi cal Director, and a Portland Visitor This. Week. caoiea of "The Chocolate Soldier" score, Mr. Whitney answered, "John Lund." Oscar Straus . said, "I am satisfied Lund, too, has lived the music life." Mr. Lund's studies In Berlin and Vien na helped him to step directly into the responsibilities of the Metropolitan Grand Opera-House orchestra. In New York, where he was for several seasons connected with the Walter Damrosch management. From that position he was called to the direction of the sym phony orchestra of Buffalo, N. Y, and then for seven years he was musical director of the Frltzl Scheff opera com pany. Now he Is musical director of "The Chocolate Soldier," the attraction that opens tonight at the Hellig. for a week. Mr. Lund brings with him an orchestra of 20 musicians, and with the Helllgs 10 the orchestra this week will have a membership of 30. John Claire Montelth has consented to be one of the soloists nt the benefit to be held Thursday by the Women's Clubs of this city.

Thursday, February 9. has been chosen as the date on which Miss Dagmar Inez Kelly, mezzo-soprano, will be presented In recital by John Claire Montelth.' At tha annual meeting of the Unitarian Church last Tuesday night. John Claire Montelth sang "Myself When Young" (Liza Lehman) with good effect. For an encore he gave "The Skippers of St. Ives" (Roeckel), a delightful song for the occasion. George Mead, who was the other soloist, sang "Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes" and "I Know a Love ly Garden" (lyHardelot). Mr. Mead, who Is new to Portland audiences, has a tenor voice of pleasing quality. At the studio musical given by Frank Elchenlaub and Harry Van Dyke last Sunday afternoon, John Claire Montelth gave a group of songs, which were re ceived with much pleasure. Among the numbers were "The Border Ballad" (Owen), and "Mother o' Mine" (Tours). WILL JBENDEB. RECITAL.
