The oldest of living great composers, Saint-Saens, directed a big concert. In the Oregon building of the Panama Pacific & International Exposition at San Francisco on a recent afternoon, and in writing on the subject Miss Anne Shannon Monroe says: "Even so illustrious a composer as Charles Camille Saint-Saens must have been thrilled by the concert It was a great afternoon, a great man and a great audience, and the audience, like the man, was great In quality. The hall, seating 6000, was filled long be fore the concert began, and all the standing room was filled with a tight ly congested mass of people not to be denied this last opportunity. There were but three concerts. "There was the exposition orchestra, of which Richard Hageman Is direc tor; Sousa's band, and a chorus of 200 voices, which gave the oratorio. The Promised Land," its first performance in America. The first number. 'Hall Cal ifornia, a composition of Saint-Saens, made a profound Impression on the au dience. But the great moment was when Saint-Saens entered the hall to conduct the second number. The members of the orchestra and the chorus rose as one to do him honor. and the applause seemed Incapable of stopping' itself. It was a Joyously mad outburst of love, appreciation and high feeling. . ' "As the dear, rather, squat old gen tleman stood there bowing 'he's got such a nice little stand-back way a r ; fy : MUSIC PEOPLE ACTIVE IX Cl'RRE.NT COMMENT. Mrs. Ralph C. Walker.

He Is 80. ro bust, clear-eyed, vigorous and full .of that life-quality that we commonly as sociate with youth. "Saint-Saens conducted most of the remainder of the programme, all his own compositions, and in the very last of the chorus work he showed that he was as keen and .severe on dis crepancies as ever he may have been. The singing was too slow, and with a quick gesture he stopped the chorus, commanded. in quick. sharp-toned French, ..that .they, should sing, more quickly, and started the chorus over again. They all loved, him for that. They would have loved him no matter what he had done. At the last note the audience was .on Its feet again, shouting bravoa. waving hats and handkerchiefs and canes. "There was no move whatever to leave: no one had any Intention of go ing so long as there was a chance that he might return. He did. He bowed his 'nice little stand-back bow.' and nothing could better express his mod est little French manner and still they shouted bravos and demanded more. .He made a little speech, in French no one heard, it. at least very few but still they shouted and would noU be satisfied. Finally, the audi ence was asked to go. Reluctlantly. people turned, still looking back over their shoulders, still hanging for a last sight of the , illustrious composer that their very hearts honored. "It is a great thing to be a great man. But it is also a great thing to be a great, , thrilled, responsive audi ence. I wonder if that experience could happen to Saint-Saens anywhere else in America, outside of New York and San Francisco? "Several groups of Portland people were seen in the audience." MAXAGER OF MIS "WIFE. J. B. Ettinger Is for all the world like what he Is In every-day life a fine, cheerful, modest, optimistic speci men of the American business man. If you saw Mr. Ettinger pass along Washington street there is nothing un usual about him to attract attention. He is known and esteemed in Portland as one of the most hustling members of the new Commercial Club, manager of the American Wood Working Ma chinery Company's plant In North Portland. He has a charming family and home In Irvington, and he is band master of the Rosarlan band. But he does not look like a musician. He does not wear his hair long and does not sport a flowing necktie. Mr. Ettinger, although a business roan today, is bandmaster of the Ro sarians because he likes music and wishes to be of service .to that bunch of workers, the Commercial Club. Not so very long ago Mr. Ettinger was con ductor of the famous Carlisle Indian School band, Carlisle, Pa. In those days his concert vocal soloist was Miss Grace Greenwood Anderson, colorature soprano. We are speaking now about the time of the Pan-American Exposi tion, held at Buffalo, N. Y ., and the Miss Anderson of those days is the Mrs. J. B. Ettinger of today. Thafi the one great romance of Mr. Ettin ger's life. It isn't every man who can boast that he once "managed his own wife. Mr. Lttlnger was born at Aaronsbura. Pa., and at an early age manifested a love for music, classical and popular. He won fame as a euphonium soloist, and his first big appointment came to him about 25 years ago when he was appointed conductor of the Milton, Ps military band. So much renown did tnis Milton band win that under Mr. ettinger s direction It was awarded the first prize as the best band in the inree states or Pennsylvania. Mew Jer sey and Delaware. Its concerts at "At lantlc City, N. J.. brought b!g. enthusi astic crowds from far and near. As conductor of the Sixth Regiment Rand of Chester. Pa., the First Brigade Band of Philadelphia and the First Delaware National Guard. Mr. Ettinger won recognition as one of the big band masters of the United States, and when he formed a band of his own. Ettin ger's Concert band of Philadelphia' and New York City, these were the days of his life romance and the exposition at Buffalo. N. Y. When Mr. Ettinger was appointed bandmaster at Carlisle. Pa-, the appointment carried with' it the rank of lieutenant. The Carlisle band, with Mr. Ettinger as conductor, won National honors in music circles. Then the call of family and business life came, and the Ettingers moved to a place called Portland. Or. For years Mr. Ettinger was only known In this city as a business 'and family man. nntll the day came when the Commer cial Club folks wanted a bandmaster for the newly-organised Rosarlan and to Mr. Ettinger s great surprise his music record was dug up. "Boys. I'm out of the music game. I'm only a member of the Commercial Club," pleaded Ettinger. "And " Mr. Ettinger. euphonium soloist and bandmaster of the Carlisle Indian School, was discovered. Mrs. Ettinger was trained In singing by the great Madame Marchesl. of Paris. Fraie. and those - who have heard Mrs. Ettinger sing at society and private rnusicales are loud In . their praises of her fine voice. "The Rosarlan band contains good material," said Mr. Ettinger last night. "We all pey for our own and the pub lic's pleasure. , We don't play for gain. The Rosarians band would rank with first-class musical organizations If we i had more oboes and bassoons." IMPRESSIONISTIC POEM IKARD. Balnbrldge Crist, the distinguished American long and symphony composer, whose home Is In Boston. Mass.. has arrived In this city to visit his mother. Mrs. Alexander C Shaw, and hopes to remain In Portland until early in Sep tember. At a recent Saturday night concert held In Boston by the Boston Symphony Orchestra one of the "pop" series Mr. Criet's new "Egyptian Impressions" was played by the orchestra, and it was cordially received. 'A Boston correspondent writes: "Mr. Crist has been -known in London and nor mora recently In tls country as composer of songs showing Imagination, a fine poetic sense and skilled work manship: This is the first work of his in a larger form to be heard. It shows the gifts of one who translates Imagery or an emotional thought Into tones as an interpreter, and uot merely as a craftsman who Juggles symbols. Mr. Crist has not attempted photographic realism ' In these four tone nlcturai. Basing his conception upon bits of vtrse-or single lines, ha has employed expressive melodic and rhythmic Ideas, not overelaborated In harmonic or or chestral color, but highly pictorial in character and artistic as --miniatures. Mr. Crist has not labored to make his music ooviouaty oriental, although it plausibly has caught the an el! r th desert, but It has distinct poetic flavor. it is imaginative and stimulating. The score is not overcrowded. The Ideas speak for themselves, through an or chestration both temperate and dis cerning. Mr. Crist was present with a party of friends and bowed his acknowl edgments to the applause that fol lowed enthusiastically. The programme Included Liszt's first Hungarian Rhap sody. Dvorak's 'Carnival' overture. music from 'Martha.' 'Hansel and Gretel' nd 'Paul lace I' and solos bv iv Theodorowlcs. the concert master, and Mr. Helm, trumpeter."

Mr. Tosca nlnl was to have conducted symphony concerts In New York and then taken the opera-house orchestra across the continent on a concert tour. Suddenly. It was announced. Mr. Toscanlnl was HI and that the tour an abandoned. What la understood to have happened Is that Mr. Toscanlnl quarreled with his orchestra while conducting a re hearsal, threw down his baton and walked out. Then he packed bis trunks and sailed for Italy. II left a promise that ha would return, how ever, by November !f in the meantime ha has not Joined the war-bent Italian army.
