BY EMILIE FRANCES BAUER. NEW YORK. June 16. (Special.) The best news that has been heard In many seasons, the best In fact that could be offered to lovers of grand opera in Its most artistic form. Is that Olive Fremstad has been re-enprafred at the Metropolitan- and will be heard in the old favorite roles in which for a number of seasons she was the reipnine idol of Europe ana America. It will be a joy to welcome back to the Metropolitan stage the great Kundry. Brunhilde, Slegllnde and other of the Wagnerian roles, in which the beauty of her feeling and her phys ical expositions were supplemented by a rich, vibrant, telling voice in which there was more than mere vocal technic, more than mere vocal beauty, being the expression as It Is of a tre mendous psychological system. What lime. Fremstad's influence was over the Wagner lovers who imbibed their joy at the fountain she had to give, sparkling with brilliancy, shifting in color, and fresh In every concept and in every presentation, makes a large part of the musical history of this country. She left the Metropolitan, not by any means an artist whose day and powers were finished, but in the height of a glorious career, and her return will, therefore, be a matter of rejoicing wherever an art such as hers is appre ciated and for those who have not yet learned appreciation she is a masterly Instructor. "While the Metropolitan Opera Com pany has not yet announced its com plete plans and list of engagements, it is definitely understood that Julia Claussen, the superb artist whose con cert and operatic appearances have made her known throughout the entire country as one of the greatest favorites of the stage, will be at that house next season. Clarence Whitehlll, the em inent American baritone, will be there for the entire season, and the young American tenor. Charles Hackett, brother of the tenor. Arthur Hackett, has also been added to the list of artists for 1918-19. with a possible few guest appearances next season. Jose Mardones, the basso, who has made several tours under Max Rabinoff, is also mentioned as a mem ber of the Metropolitan for the coining season and, in addition to John Mc Cormack, the tenors will include Ipolito Lazzaro. the young Spanish tenor, who is expected to make a sen sation. Among the American singers of note engaged -at the Metropolitan, one giving especial pleasure to those who know her admirable work is Flor ence Easton-Maclennan. and May Peterson, who. has enjoyed success at the Opera Comtque. has also been added. Thomas. Chalmers, another American singer, will be a great acquisition to the list of baritones. while Paul Althouse. who has been re-engaged, win.- no doubt, come In for many more important roles, to Judge from his suc cess as Pinkerton, which he sang dur ing the last week of this- season. , As usual at this time of the year, new operatic enterprises spring up in every section of the country. The unfortu nate weather conditions which sur rounded open-air performances last year, have apparently not discouraged everyone, as might have been expected. St. Louis. for instance, is planning an out-of-door performance of "Aida." Those named for a series of perform ances given from June S to June 9 in Forest Park by the city, through the co-operation of . the Mayor, included Marie Rappold and Francesca Peralta alternating- in the title - role: Cyrena Van Gordon, alternating with Margaret Jarman. as Amneria; Manuel Salazar and Forest Lamont, as Radames; Louis Kreidler and Thomas Chalmers in the part of Amonasro. in which they both alternated during that season of opera at the Century Theater. Ramfls had as Interpreters Virgilio Lazzari and Carl (Concluded on .). BY HAL. E. HOSS. ROM Nehalem City to the foot of Neah-kah-nle la but three es, and Nehalem is located Just a pleasant 20 minutes' ride across the bay from Wheeler and the railway. Tourists for the beach resorts, and es pecially guests of the Neah-kah-nie Tavern, may make connections " from Mohler via auto bus direct to their des tinations and through tickets may be obtained from the railroad company. So, inaccessibility in no way can be used as an excuse for missing the de lights of an outing in this historic en vironment. If you motor there is a good roadway via Tillamook from val ley points, and the recently opened Pa cific Highway from Seaside makes de lightful tours possible by allowing a "loop" trip. Extensive road improve ment Is continually going on in this section of the country and the auto roads this season will be the best since the history of the beach resorts. Neah-kah-nle Mountain, in the tongue of the Nehalem Indians, means "Home of the Fire Spirit." and It was here, to this massive headland, that the local tribes of the redmen came to worship their gods and to stage the rites and ceremonies characteristic of 'their r,ace. Mountain Is Inspiring;. Rising practically 2000 feet into the air. with accllvttous sides extending gradually to the rocky summit, with the exception of the western side, which is almost perpendicular, the massiveness of Neah-kah-nle Mountain is inspiring. We are dwarfed to pyg my size in 'comparison with this pon- I derous upheaval in tne pain oi mj strand, but it is this same magnitude that elevates and exalts the mind. And this beautiful, natural scenic "look out is easily ascended, for a splendid trail winds around the westward side for several miles, affording passage to the Clatsop Beach resorts and offering the hiker opportunity of viewing un surpassed scenes. From the Columbia River on the north to Cape Lookout on the south, with the intermediate splendors of valleys, peninsulas and mountain scenery, the panorama spread before the gaze from Neah-kah-nie'a summit makes a picture that one truly should not forego. But besides the wonders of the moun tain, the splendid beach and the varied- pleasures of an almost natural park, the resorts here have other at tractions equally enticing and equally productive of that relaxation which comes only from absolute contentment with your environment. For the lover 'of the abstruse and recondite piratical lore there . are places a-plenty where one might dig for hidden wealth. - 'Tis here in the Nehalem Valley where many buc caneers' "pieces of eight" .'have been buried away according to popular leg end and the stories have been given quite some credence. Lfgrida Are Interesting-. The manifold points of Interest and mystery about old Neah-kah-nle and the Nehalem Valley have been incen tive for more than one splendidly writ ten book and the supposed burying ground of pirates' wealth is always a place of more than passing interest. The mystery of the beeswax which TO 1 - t. x J j '-- 1 - -' - ' i ' . . i. ' I iX ,. ,: ' . ..- a. .v )lmii .,. - -1 is still dug up along the beach in huge cakes and blocks, the undeciphered hie roglyphics on the Treasure Rocks, and the maps purporting to show the loca tion of enormous sums of money, are all items of worth to the vacationist. It is here In the Valley of the Nehalem. at the foot of the highest headland 'twlxt the Golden Jate and Queen Charlotte Sound, that the elements of romance and mystery and of natural and prepared advantages meet and mingle in never-ending variety for the entertainment of the Summer visitor. Shipwrecks, too. have added their quota of solemn, though interesting, tradition to the scene& and almost every cottager prizes some relic of an unfortunate sailer of the seas, come ashore at this point. Within but the past few years the disastrous wreck of the Mlmi. the breaking up of the Glennessiin. the accident to the Fran cis H. Leggett and the stranding of the Oakland have provided excitement a plenty for the cottagers and residenters here. The Oakland still rests in the sands where she" came ashore a year ago last March, but a contract has been let for transporting her across the spit to Nehalem Bay. Stopping; Flares Delightful. Besides ample accommodations at Kehalem City, the beach resorts in tbis vicinity abound in pleasant stopping places. "Cain's Place" is a real home like, "farm" sort of a place, with gar dens growing things for the table and cows and chickens to provide' their re spective products. Neah-kah-nie Tavern is a modern hotel, conducted by S. G. Reed, well known Portland business man. and provides delicious meals and all com forts and conveniences at moderate rates. The progressive host here hag laid out a splendid 160-acre golf course and tennis and other sports are pro vided. A beautiful lobby, with huge fireplace, makes the tavern the nightly gathering place of the Summer folk. At Manzanita. just a short- distance from the base of the mountain, are lo cated some charming shady retreats for camping and a number of fine Summer homes dot the foliage-decked ridges. The Manzanita Inn is a delightful stopping place and is conducted by Mr. and Mrs. Gilman B. Nunn. Cottages here also may be rented. Necarney Tent City and Classic Ridge Farm are both pleasant places for Sum mer outings, and the "Club." near Man zanita, is the Mecca for the art coterie of Portland. A number of beautiful Summer homes have- been built by prominent Northwesterners in this vi cinity and that the resorts are becom ing more popular with the lover of the real outdoors Is evidenced- by the hearty enthusiasm of every visitor. Grand Master of Oddfellows Has Interesting Career. Gewcc W. Trefren, of Ashlnnd, Or, Han Been Millhand. Stockman. Lnwrer nnd tewspnperman Mont of HU Life PauH In Went. The life of George W. Trefren, of Ashland, who has ' succeeded Henry S. Weatbrook. of Portland, as grand mas ter of the Oregon grand lodge. Inde pendent Order of Oddfellows, reads like romance. A long and varied career as millhand, stockman, lawyer, passed in various states from the Atlantic Sea board to Oregon, makes the simple tale of his days interesting. George W. Trefren was born In the town of Milton. N. H-. 40 miles north of Portsmouth. September 16, 1852.

In 1S77 he returned to Grand Island, where . he taught school and studied law, being admitted to the bar in 1S79. He practiced law until 1SS2. running a, newspaper on the side. In 1882 he moved to Broken Bow.. Neb., where he resided and practiced law until 1892, conducting a paper also from 1882 to 1S86. In 1892 his health failed anj he spent a year traveling, finally locat ing in Ashland, Or., where he has re sided and practiced law for 25 years. Mr. Trefren' was 'married in 1880 at Grand . Island. . Neb., to. Miss Mary T. Jones. To them five children were born, two boys and three girls, three of whom are now living Mrs. Flor ence L. Pratt, of Hornbrook, Cal. ; Lei J. Trefren and Miss Iorothy Trefren. of Ashland. Mr. Trefren joined the Oddfellows while living in Broken Bow, Neb., and has held all offices In the subordinate lodge. He was a member of the grand lodge of Nebraska, and has been a member of the grand lodge of Oregon since 1898. Salmon Aronnd Anchor Rope. Boston Cor. While Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Hinds and their small son were fishing off Bald Mountain Camps In Maine a large fish pulled Mrs. Hinds' tackle, '-which she had laid down, into the lake. Nothing more was seen of it until Mr. Hinds took up the anchor to go home. Then the line was discovered wound two or three times around the anchor rope with a three-pound salmon strug gling on the end of the line, -
