Present prospects indicate that -the Apollo Club male chorus concert, which Is to take place Tuesday night at the Ileitis Theater, with Madame Julia Claussen as soloist, will be a brilliant affair, both musically and socially. An unprecedented demand for tickets is Ttotlcenble and a capacity house Is ap parently inevitable. The numbers to be sung by Madame Claussen, the great contralto, will in clude a pleasing variety and give op portunity for displaying her remark able ver. atllity. Several of her num bers ar new to Portland audiences and will prove of special interest for that reason. Her numbers will Include one group by American composers, among others "Light." a quaintly beau tiful little song by Marlon Eugenie Bauer, also "Cradle Song." by Mae Fadyen, one of the newer composers who ha e come into prominence of late. She will also sing the well known Sthubert "Krlkonig." which gives opportunity for the display of he.- dramatic powers. All in all. the programme by both soloist and male chorus for this coming concert will prove a most satisfactory one and should please all tastes. Madame Claussen Is an ardent sportswoman. She plays a fast game cf tennis, is a golfer not to be despised and all-round lover of the great out-of-doors. Probably this in large meas ure la responsible Xor her splendid health and overflowing spirits. Her distinguished baitaod, Captain Claus sen, Is an officer In the Swedish navy and Is on temporary leave of absence granted by King Oscar. NEW MUSIC CLUB FORMED.

At the meet ing M. Christensen, president of the Portland Symphony Orchestra, deliv ered a brief address on the topic, "Sym phonic Music and the Value of the Best Orchestra Music to the Community." He pointed out that the public taste is developed along the line of the music that is heard the most, and hence fine symphonic music develops a taste for the higher class of music, and'not rag time music." William R. Boone delivered a talk on "The Instruments of the Orchestra." which he illustrated by playing parts of the orchestral music to be rendered at today's symphony concert. Mrs. R. H. Tate spoke on the topic, "Portland Symphony Orchestra and Its Work," and asked for encouragement of the higher grade of music as against the poor class. Out of the audience, a -large class signed for the ensuing musical studies, which are to follow every Monday night. Miss Bailey distributed to the audi ence a list of books to be used by the Music Appreciation Club. In the list are works of Faulkner. "What We Hear In Music : Henderson., what Is Good Music"; Lenler. "Music and Poetry," and KrehbieL "How to Listen to Good Music" The list contains books on "The Orchestra," "The Symphony" and "The Opera." These books are In. the East Portland Branch. The club meets tomorrow night. One meeting will he devoted to Symphony, and the bal ance of the month to a study of Italian and German opera. Several promi nent musicians will assist the class and render selections on the piano. Miss Bailey la pleased with the start -the class has made, and looks for a con stant Increase. The meetings are free to all who are interested in musical study. "Our object is to cultivate good music by hearing It," says Miss Bairey. KRE18LER WANTS 92000 PER. Fritz Kreisler. the famous violinist, who plans to remain In this country for another season. Is not going to trust exclusively to his receipts as a player In concert for all his profits. He Is hard at work on the score of an oper etta which will soon be ready for the publishers. Who has accepted the new composition has not yet been an nounced, although there has already been a lively demand for the rights. Kreisler Is said to have written the work In the vein of the highest Vien nese music, says the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. Not one of the other musicians who has been In this country during the ast leason has profited by the war to the extent that the Austrian violinist has. His fee has "now increased to $2000 for a single appearance, which Is unprecedented in the case of a vio linist. This advance was altogether due to the phenomenal success of his con certs, which last season met with a degree of financial appreciation alto gether unprecedented. Whether or not this popularity will continue with the wound in his right leg altogether healed and his war experiences gradu ally fading Into the perspective history, remains to be seen. But with his comic opera a success Kreisler may afford to regard his concerts as of secondary im portance. Another musician who is Interested in the fate of a comic opera is Otto Goritz. of the Metropolitan Onerahouse. He is at Schroon Lake putting the fin ishing touches to the libretto, which he composed several years ago. He was then too little confident of his knowl edge of English to attempt a transla tion of the work into the vernacular. The English text Is now ready- for pro duction. MISS LAWI.F.R IX CONCERTS.

The beauty la of a kind that chills and de presses. You are turned to stone, as it were, from within outwards, by the vision of this slender girl s head, with its heavy braids and writhing side locks, ubereas the classic "Medusa" turned you to atone from the outside. The horror is instinctive, rather than emotional. Like all Salvatore works, this head conveys an impression of light and color. The subtle modeling of the fea tures is emphasized by the bold, simp e treatment of the hair.
