WHO THE most extraordinary manifes tation of genius ever witnessed in San Francisco on the part of a violinist, according to the critics. has been recorded there during the visit of Fritz Kreisler the last week. And there is every reason to believe that Portland music-lovers will get the same impression when the distin guished Austrian violinist appears at the Heilig next Thursday evening, March 12, under the direction of Lois Steers-Wynn Coman. The San Francisco papers placed Kreisler at the head of all living vio linists. His three appearances In that city, were to crowded houses and the enthusiasm was exhilarating, to put it mildly. Of his third and last appear ance there Redfern Mason, in the Ex aminer, pronounced it "a flood of music such as the world has seldom heard." He said: 'Whenever Kreisler chooses to visit us again the whole city will turn out to greet him. They were all there last night and their enthusiasm was something good to see. Imagine Scot DEVICE 10 SAVE LIFE Collapsible Gate to Be Strung Between Cars of Train. CARMAN SUGGESTS IDEA Portland lEailway, Light & Power Company Plans Also to Install Movable Step Under Con- " trol of Motorman. The Portland Railway, Light & Power Company installed a new safety device on its cars Thursday, which will be put in general use on all trains of the company or cars with a trailer. The device is a collapsible gate or vestibule hung between the two cars. As the cars turn a corner the outside gate stretches and the inside one con tracts to conform to the space between the two cars. The gates extend down as low as the bottom of the step of the car. According to street railway officials, it is in attempting to board moving cars of "no-stop" trains at the rear entrance of the leading cars that acci dents invariably happen. If the pas senger misses his hold he falls forward and is caught under the wheels of the second car. The safety device will prevent him from falling any further than the outer edge of the car and thus keep him outside the line of the wheels. The new safety device is a sugges tion of one of the carmen of the com SAFETY DEVICE ON TRAINS RAILWAY, LIGHT & IT 4.

"It did my heart good to watch, that audience. They were jubilant and they gave of appreciation in such generous measure that the artist Was jubilant too. The most notable thing about this splendid artist is his perfect mental poise. Emerson says somewhere of Plato that he is never calmer than when his lightnings are flashing in the air. These words hold good for Kreis ler. "It matters not whether he is play ing the inspired counterpoint of Bach the devout rapture of Handel, or the sculptured lineaments of Pugnani, he always seems to have determined ex actly what mental attitude he should adopt and to follow it with a composed but never phlegmatic logic to the end "It would be easy to prattle in definitely about Kreisler. He is a great man. and it is a privilege to know him. pany. The company encourages all of its employes to submit suggestions at any time which may tend toward the improvement of the service. This is the second important safety device that has been adopted - by the Portland Railway, Light & Power Com pany recently. The other is used on cars where there is a door in the mid die of the car, and was installed on one of the cars about two weeks ago. It is practically the same as the de vice used at the front entrances of streetcars now and is operated with a lever by the motorman. He lets down the step and opens the door to let passengers on or off. When the door is closed the step is turned up, and there is no use of any one attempting to rfcoard the car. It is the intention of the company to equip all the cars, on which they can be used, with both of these devices. , Y. M. C. A. AFFAIR HELD Department Secretaries, Families and Friends Attend Dinner.
