Vladlmer de Pachman will bring regret
to th admirer of thla planlstlo genius,
who ha not been heard In America for
three years. It will be a misfortune to
lose ao distinguished a pianist, but
music lovers will find some solace In
this final recital, whloh will offer a
splendid opportunity to study the tech
nique of this pianoforte master. HI
programme, always specimens of per
fection In 'the choice of numbers and
their arrangement, will bear the same
masterful touch a heretofore. He will
play Chopin as he always has. and
probably better than ever and he will
give to the public some compositions
never before Interpreted through th
medium of his marvelous abilities.
There will be representation for
writer of romantic schools, and they
will be performed with all the grace,
finish and easy nonchalance character
istic of the Russian virtuoso.
Quartet's Fame Spread.
Following; 0 Pachman will be tha
Flonxaley Quartet, the finest organiza
tion of It .kind xitlng. and the only
European string quartet ever brought
to America. The quartet 1 a striking
example of a rise from artistlo ob
scurity to world-wide recognition. A
few yeara ago the Flonxaley were
known to a comparatively- few as an
organization of four talented musicians,
whom E. J. de Coppet. a wealthy art
patron, bad banded together to play at
hi villa on Lake Geneva, Switzerland,
and at hla New York residence. Tue
fame of the "soirees" given for the few
spread to the many, and the adoption
of a public career led In a surprisingly
short time to a reputation extending
throughout the musical world. In Amer
ica, as In Europe, the quartet has out
stripped its older rivals. Its playing
being accepted everywhere today as
the standard of artistic excellence.
The appearance of the young Irish
tenor. John McCormack. will bo the
fourth event of the series.. Five yeara
agu McCormack was entirely unknown
to tha musical world. He waa born tn
Athlon, and grew up and went through
oolleg without discovering that he had
a vole of more than usual merit. On
day n waa Induced to compete at th
Dublin Musical Festival, where compe
titions In singing ara held and mdal
granted to the most proficient. Mo
cormaok astonished himself and hla
friends by carrying off tha first prise.
The tenor then gar several concerts.
and with tha proceed went to study In
Italy. Aftr a number of appearance
In Italy he returned to I-ondon In 1807
and waa engaged for Covent Garden. A
few week later he san In "Rlgoletto"
with Tetraxalnt. who waa delighted
with hla beautiful voice and gave him
much advloe and assistance, with the
result that ha wa engaged for tha sea
son. His aDDearance at the Metropoli
tan Orand Opera-House In Now Tork
brought htm Instant recognition, and
he was hailed aa tha second taruso.
This will be hi first trip Wst-
Th closing concert of th aerie will
be that of Jan Kubellk. who during his
farewell tour will give a erle of 100
concert In the principal cities of th
United State and Canada, which will
extend until April. 113, when he will
sail for South America. . Subsequent
engagements will fill hla time until
1915, when he purposes to retire from
active touring work, confining nia ef
forts to the Continent.
Since hla last American engagement
In 1907-8 Kubellk haa been in Aus
tralia. Russia. South America and other
foreign countries, and hla record of
triumphs is complete. His engagement
during the past season in London have
shown that he retains hla remarkable
hold upon the public, the largest audi
torium In all cases having been crowd

LONO BEACH. Wash., Sept. 16. (To
th Editor.) Oh, that whlstlel The
whistle of th Potter train at thl
tlma of tna season brings you back to
earth with a Jolt, The wild waves have
a lonesome sound In .tha long-drawn
farewell to tne thousands of bathers.
Fortunate ara they who can remain,
for the September rains leave the at
mosphere free from mist and fog. with
an assurance of at least six .weeks of
delightful, warm weather.
Cottages all along North Beach are
being closed; even Rubber Keck Row
1 deserted. Every train ior rori
land carries away hundreds of healthy
looking, well-trained vacationists.
There are quite a few Portland resi
dents who make Long Beach their per
manent home. Walter Strauhal who
was engaged In the grocery business on
Morrison street for many years, has a
nne department store and 13 cottages.
R. Kult who kept a family store on
Third street in the '70 s and 'SO's has
been here for many yeara Pioneers
may remember Dick Knoll's as a good
place to get "something" for a bad cold
or sour stomach.
Early-Comer Front.
Jim Hackney, one of Portland- early
restaurant men. Is operating the cosy
Hackney cottsge. Jim. like many
others in the '90's had a hard struggle.
Mr. Hackney is now In comfortable cir
cumstances. Mrs. Emma Porter, pro
prletess of the Hotel Salt air. came here
nine rr ago from Bellwood and pur
c.hed an acre of ground from E. B.
McFarland for 1700. paying 10 deposit,
all the money she had.
Then there Is Mrs. Lynlff. proprletess
of tha most unique cottage of the age.
Who does not know the Driftwood?
Mr. Lynlff is a daughter of Tommy
Moran. a pioneer of East Portland. It
may not be out of place at thla time to
mention that Portland or more properly
Esst Portland has some claim on Long
Beach by right of discovery.

" I msrovemeata Are Made.
The North Beach Push Club Is an ac
tive body. Msnr improvements have
been made. Mora Important one ar
being contemplated, uch as the exten
sion of the boulevard along the entire
length of tha Beach and the opening of
the block In front at Tinker' Hotel to
the ocean; the erection of a grand
stand, a dancing pavilion, with band
concerts afternoons, and other forms of
amusement to take the place of th
shack.
Train service at the Beach is very
good thl eaon- There were 16 trains
running the entire length of the North
Beach, making It convenient for those
wished to travel for pleasure or busi
ness. -Words of praise may be heard for
Mr. Budd. the superintendent, and for
the courtesy of the conductors and
train crews.
Some amusing things occur at Long
Beach. During the first few rainy days,
while te "tenderfoot" securely clad
In waterproof clothing and rubber boot
was rushing to catch tha Potter train,
hundreds of others could be seen with
bare legs and arms heading for the
ocean for a plunge. There is talk of
having a wire cable of sufficient
strength that will haul J. P. O'Brien
down to Long Beach for a conference
with the Push Club. H. E. Deputy says
that It is the only way he can be In
duced to come.- DAN M' ALLEN.
NEW SUBMARINES STRONG
English Type Completes Remarkable
Series of Tests.
LONDON. Sept. 16. (Special.) More
and more Importance Is being attaohed
by European naval and military author
ities to submarles and aeroplanes. Rus
sia, Turkey and Germany all include
submarines In their new defense
schemes. England seems to have sim
ilar ideas, for there are now 76 sub
marles completed or under construction
in British yards.
That' the modern submarine Is no very
frail affair, or difficult to manage, is
proved by the fact that one flotilla ha
Just traveled 9000 miles to Hongkong
snd another to Malta In the Mediterran
ean. Both had stormy passages, yet
no damage was suffered.
The latest or "E" type of British
submarines is a tremendous advanoo on
previous achievements. Experts be
lieve there are some notable Improve
ments yet to be added, so that within a
tew years the displacement will be up
to 2000 tons and the vessels will be able
to travel under water by day and on
the surface at night. By that time tha
old-time destroyers will be hopelessly
out of data
The "E" subrarlnes demonstrate once
more there is no finality In naval con
struction. Every year "goes on bet
ter." At present they are of 800 tons
displacement and can travel on the sur
face up to IS knots. Vast Improvements
In the engines and equipment have
quite obviated the disastrous explosions
of the earlier days, when tha older
fashioned naval men regarded sub
marles as more toys suited only for
limited defense work.
