With the election of the three direc tors from tho membership council at its meeting Friday night, the full board of directors, consisting of 30 members, was completed. E. L. ThompKon was elected to serve for a three-year term, John T. Dougall for two years and Frank E. Smith for one year. Mr. Dougall and Mr. Smith were tied in the ballot and their terms were decided by lot- Six candidates were nominated and the vote ran close throughout. Air. Thompson was elected president of the membership council and A. C. McMicken secretary. The membership council has a mem bership of 226, consisting of three dele gates appointed by the consolidation committee from each of the trade or professional divisions represented in the Chamber. - The personnel of the council will re main as now for a year, barring resig nations or dismissals, and thereafter the trade and professional . divisions themselves will elect three delegates each annually. The 30 newly-elected directors will meet Tuesday night. May 4, to effect their organization and elect the presi dent, vice-president, secretary and treasurer and to appoint the chairman of each of the nine bureaus. The mem bership council is the only division that elects its own chairman or president. The- appointment of the manager of the Chamber will not be made, in all probability, for more than a week, as the board will . have to devote much time to considering the various names that are to be submitted for the posi tion. . After the close of the business ses sion of the membership council last night H. V. Chase, of the Town Devel opment League, who has handled the consolidation campaign, gave a short talk on the work that the council will do in the Chamber. It is the plan to hold meetings of this body each week at luncheons, to discuss matters of interest and Import ance to the commercial life of the Ktate and the city, and to recommend lines of action to the board of direc tors. "La Gioconda" Magnificent ly Sung by Company. Opera Is Superior to Any filven in Portland During Present Season at Baker Theater. ' CAST OF I.A GIOCONDA. L Gioconda - K. Lynbrook Her blind mother ...E. Mackle Alviee Badoero. ....... .O. Lombardl Laura , I. Cacchettl Enio Grlmaldo G. Ingar Barnaba F. Bennyan Zuano U. Rovers Iaepo Nerl ' BY JOSEPH M ACQTJKEN. -'E word accurately describes the J -presentation of the Ponchielli grand opera last night at the Baker. That Word is "Magnificent." v In singing, costumes, gay music. massive scenery, and excellent stage effects. "La Gioconda" is superior to anv of the grand operas produced dur ing this visit by the Italian Grand Opera Company, De Folco and Cechetti, impresarios. The stage picture set for the second act is alone worth the money. The scenery depicts a ship about to set out to sea. The ship is there with sails set, a swiftly rolling sea is in active motion, angry clouds Hit across the sky, while the moon is effulgent. A mental smell of tarred rope is there, and one almost sees the sailors "give a hitch to their trousers, which is a trick sll sailors learn. In "Ia Gioconda," Miss Katherlna Lynbrook, dramatic soprano, comes into her own. The part fits her like a glove, and the dramatic music suits her impassioned style of singing. Her voice remains in excellent, healthy condition, in spite of the heavy de mands made on it, and the instance is one that speaks volumes for the cor rect principles on which her voice Placing is established. At the end of a long scene, her voice is as fresh and as pure as at the beginning. In the third act. Miss Lynbrook was prettily made up as a fair-haired court beauty, and her purple costume helped the stage picture she presented. Miss Mackle, as the blind mother, made the most of that part and her sympathetic singing and acting were well done. Ingar as Enzo, the ship captain, and later as a prince, was vocally splendid. He wore tights, and his limbs are so symmetrical that they are things' of beauty. They are one of the . "show sights" of the company. Lombard! as Alvise, one of the chiefs of the Inquisition, made a grand look ing figure, and sang with grand ef fect. Bennyan as the spy of the In quisition sang with good effect in the recitative "E danzan veu lor tombe. and was clearly one of the favorites witli the audience. Madame Cechetti, as wife of Alvise, sang with dignity and fine feeling, especially in the love scenes with Enzo. Rovere and Neri were admirable as Zuane and Isepo. BRYAN SIGHS PLEDGES SECRETARY CHIEF FIGI RE AT AB STAIXERS' MEETING. European War Declared to Have Proved That Even Patriotism la No Match for King Alcohol, NEW YORK, May 1. For half an hours after the close of a meeting to night under the auspices of. the Na tional Abstainers' Union, at which Sec retary of State Bryan was the principal speaker. Mr. Bryan sat at a small table on the rostrum at Carnegie Hall and signed pledges of total abstinance with hundreds of people in the audi ence. He said that if he were unable to meet the demands of the people present he would spend Sundays sign ing and returning the cards if his hear ers would forward them to him in Washington. Secretary Bryan said in his addrers that the European war had developed that even patriotism was no match for the appetite which alcohol cultivates in Its victims. "There has been a growing disposi tion in this country and throughout the world to emphasize the evils of strong drink," he said, "but even the most enthusiastic advocates of temper ance have been (surprised at the ghastly light which the war in Europe has thrown upon the subject. "It has been found that patriotism. that compelling force which through out the ages has led men to offer their lives for their country, is no match for the appetite which liquor culti vates in its victims. Loyalty to tiacchus, Gambrinus and Barleycorn Is greater than loyalty to King or Em peror or Czar. The- use of drink has been found to be so destructive of efficiency that the belligerent govern ments, not on moral grounds, but purely on economic grounds, have been com pelled to resort to restrictive meas ures." At tho close of Secretary Bryan's address, William S. Bennet, an ex. Representative in Congress and chair man of the meeting, announced that among the distinguished persons at the meeting who signed a pledge card. orcby becoming a member of the union, was Dr. Booker T. Washington. PLAY FOR NEEDY GREAT AX ABTISTIO ROMANCE" DELIGHTS BIG AIDIE.VCE AT THEATER.

CHARITY INDUCES SARGEANT TO PAINT Great Painter's Last Commis sion Is to Aid Red Cross Fund. $50,000 LEAST EXPECTED Sir Hugh Lane Comes to America to Receive Highest Bid. Artist Re fuses Flatly to Do Work Vn til Told of Cause. NEW YORK, April 27. Opportunity to bid for the distinction of becoming the subject of perhaps the last oil por trait that John Sargent, R. A., the American portrait painter, will ever paint, is contained in an offer made here by Sir Hugh Lane, director and curator of the National Gallery of Ire land, prominent throughout Great Brit ain as a patron of art. Mr. Sargent, who resides in London and for some years past has refused portrait commissions at any price, has been induced for charity. Sir Hugh an nounced, to paint a portrait in oils to the highest bidder. The proceeds are to be devoted to the British Red Cross Society and the Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem In England. To make the offer known to wealthy Americans is one of the objects of the distinguished Irishman's visit to this Country, and as a beginning he has himself .bid .$50,000 for the honor. Many Artists Contribute. Sir Hugh explained that the offer was made in connection with the sale of works of art organized by an in fluential committee in England for the benefit of the British Red Cross and the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem. Many of the best-known English artists have contributed pictures to it from their own brushes, he said, and the committee sought Mr. Sargent also for a contribution. "Jt is well known," said Sir Hugh, "and greatly regretted by all admirers of the greatest living painter of por traits that for some time past he has refused all portrait commissions, with the exception of tho occasional short chalk sketches that he does of his friends. Sargent Cannot Refuse. "A few days before I left England a number of the committee put it to Mr. Sargent that at least $50,000 would be obtained for the fund were he to make an exception to his rule. The answer was characteristic of the man: " 'Well, then, I suppose that I cannot refuse.' "I have brought an answer to Amer ica. If any man or woman of Sargent's country wishes to make me an offer, will thry communicate with me before Thursday evening next, as I must cable tho winner for public announcement on the last day of the sale. I make the first bid at $30,000, but I feel sure that a great deal more will be bid for the satisfaction" of giving to so great a cause and of being immortalized by Sargent's brush." $3500 VERDICT TOO LITTLE Court Sets Jury's Finding Aside for Man Who Lost Vse of Hand. NEW YORK, April 27. James H. Farrell, an engineer, sued the Bradley Contracting Company for $25,000. A jury in the Westchester County Su preme Court awarded him $3800. "Absurdly inadequate," said Justice Tompkins, who set aside the verdict and gave Mr. Farrell leave to renew the suit. v Miss Edna Andrews, an actress, sued Mrs. Martha Thomas, of Yonkers, in the same court the other day for $25, 000. The jury gave her $12,000. "The plaintiff will accept $5000 in 20 days or I shall order a new trial," de clared Justice Mills, then sitting. Miss Andrews, young and charming, said she ' fell in an elevator in Mrs. Thomas' house and injured her muscles so that she could not earn as much money as before she was hurt. Mr. Farrell i swore he smashed bis left hand and lost his middle finger while employed by the company at Ninety-eighth street and Lexington av enue. New York, in 1913, so he has "been unable to work since." CHILD TIED UP BY THUMBS Pnrents Guilty of Torturing Girl and Boy and Fined and Jailed. EASTON. Pa., April 27. Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Cortright, of Martins Creek, were sentenced to pay fines of $500 each, the costs of prosecution and to serve six months in prison, after having been found guilty by a jury of treating in humanely their children, Elizabeth, 8 years old, and Russell. 8 years. At the time of the arrest of the cou ple, following a visit to the home of their grandfather, H. B. Cortright. of Belvidere, N. J., the feeling of neigh bors ran high. It was to protect the parents that they were committed to jail, and the children, emaciated and half starved, were taken in charge by relatives. The children said their mother pun ished them continually, and on two oc casions the lltle girl was hung up by her thumbs. Her little brother was compelled to swing her to and fro while she shrieked In pain. SOCIALIST EDITOR GUILTY Jury Asks Mercy for Man Who Li beled Knights of Columbus- SANTA CRI Z, Cal.. May 1.

PHILADELPHIA, April 27. Twenty four hours after he had left the county prison, free, after a year's imprison ment, John Raun went back again, a few days ago. In his short period of liberty he had a veritable movle-f ilmf ul of excitement, being caught redhanded by a squad of police while trying to rob a safe, and then winding things up by bringing down an avalanche of hat boxes on the officers. To top things off, he had the rather mournful consolation of finding among the police who arrested him the one who had caught him. on the previous occasion when he was landed behind the bars. Raum was arrested on the second floor of 818 Arch street, occupied by Singman & Co., dealers in hat frames. Shortly after 2 o'clock in the afternoon a private watchman saw Raun climb a fire-escape and enter the building. The watchman telephoned to the Eleventh and Winter-streets station. Lieutenant Smiley and Patrolmen Gottlieb, McFarland, Convery, Tyron and Bitterby responded. They found Raun preparing to force the door with a jimmy and chisel. He had already broken the locks of two doors to reach the safe. -On seeing the policemen, Raun tried to hide behind piles of boxes containing hat frames, which reached nearly to the ceiling. He refused to leave his hid ing place and a game of hide and seek was begun. Pile after pile of boxes was overturned, burying the pursued and his pursuers beneath them. After great difficulty. Raun was finally captured and then Patrolman Gottlieb recognized him as a man he had arrested a little over a year ago. ROSE SOCIETY GIVES UP PLANS FOR SHOW DROPPED WHEN FBSTIVAt REFUSES SloOO. Agreement Not Reached, Although $750 Is Offered to Prepare Exhibit im Space Given Fret. There may. be no rose show under the auspices of the Portland Rose So ciety, during the Rose Festival this year. The Festival management and the society have- failed thus far to agree, and yesterday the Rose Society had dropped, practically, all plans for arranging the exhibit this year. vThe Portland Rose Society, of which E. B. McFarland is president, had asked $1500 to $1100 to provide for the show. The Festival Association heads said they didn't have that much available and avked the society to do on $750, with the second floor of the new Meier & Frank building, which was to be donated by Julius L. Meier. The society answered it couldn t be done, and after repeated negotiations, the plans were dropped. The Festival center plans seem to have been, in a way, responsible, for the disagreement. The Festival Associ ation met the request of the Rose So ciety for $1800, the amount appropri ated last year, with the reply that the money available had all been appropri ated. The society apparently thinks too much attention has been given to the festival center, where varied flowers instead of roses strictly will be featured. President MoFarland, of the Rose So ciety, said last night: "We can't pre pare a show on 7ou, ana lr sioou were given we would have to make up the $5.00 difference, as it costs $2000 to give the show. The Rose Society Is indig nant." However, Thursday night at Portland Heights CIubhouse, amateur rose grow ers and others will meet to discuss the festival center plans. "DEAD" SON FOUND ALIVE Heartbroken Mother, Responding to Call From Hospital, Collapses. PHILADELPHIA, April 27. A heart broken -woman, responding to a mes sage that her son had died at the Phil adelphia Hospital, walked into that in stitution the other day and found the supposed dead man sitting up in bed, cheerfully chatting with attendants.

Early the other day -she got the following message from the hospital: "Your son John died at the hospital. Please make arrangements to take the body away at once." Mrs. Hagen had been visiting her son every day and believed him to be recovering. The news that he was dead was a terrible shock to her, but after a time she managed to pull herself to'gether and obtained an undertaker. With the latter she went to the hos pital. The undertaker's wagon was standing at the door. . "Come this way," said a nurse, smil ing, when Mrs. Hagen asked to see. the body. The mother was led into the ward and found John sitting up in bed. Investigation disclosed that another patient named- John Hagen died and Mrs. Hagen is wondering what she owes the undertaker.

Tell His Neighbor CJ The willingness of one neighbor to tell another neigh bor in a private way of the benefit received from Peruna, explains the popularity of Peruna more than all the advertising that has been done. J The fear of the publicity undoubtedly prevents the majority of such people from writing a testimonial to be used in the newspaper. But in spite of that we are receiving fine testimonials continually. ANEMIA Mr- F. A. DeWitt. Marengo, Ohio, says: "I believe Peruna niikiiim to be the best tonic. condition of the system."
