Lambert Murphy, the noted New York City tenor, has not found It possible again to arrange bis concert dates for a concert In this city at the present time for the Apollo Club, and his engagement to sing with It has been, regretfully canceled.

Becker are. looking forward with pleasure to his second concert on the Olds memorial organ in Reed Col lege, Tuesday night. December 10. Mr. Becker is playing regularly the second Tuesday of each month in Reed 'Col lege, but owing to the Influenaa epi demic the November recital waa post poned until this date. The numbers on the programme for Tuesday are all from the modern French school, and their selection Is another evidence of Jlr. Becker's skill in programme build lng. The big number Is the Guilmant "Fifth Sonata." which is one of the D4t Interesting of the works of this famous composer. In direct contrast is the delicate and charming "Swan," of Saint Saena, The Christmas atmoa phere Is given by the "March of the Magi Kings" (Dubois).

Those who are related to the late Tom Dobson by ties of blood, of rela tionship, of course miss him the most. The blow Is deeper, and the sense of personal loss keener. But to the great mass of the Amer lean music-loving public, especially In this city and JNew York City, the death of Tom Dobson means that a friend has passed whose place it is not easy to filL There are other singers, other en tertainers, other singers of funny and serious songs, but only Tom Dobson could deliver his message and the harp that he played so well and so skillfully la silent. Tom Dobson had a merry mile, a cheerful look that healed better than drugstore medicine. He waa in his happiest mood when, seated before an audience, he played his own accompa niments to funny little songs like "A Fat Little Feller" or "When I Waa One and Twenty." He sang the words dis tinctly, and his face always was com posed until the last bar of music was sung. Then invariably he turned to ward the laughing audience, and his face was sunny in smiles, as if. he were saying: "Say. good folks, let me in on the Joke, too. I ll laugh with you. And he did. Tea, Tom Dobson's merry smiles, his good fellowship, his free and easy manners as a song-comrade, always were features of the Dobson concerts. Tom Dobson's piano accompaniments also were musle gems that were treas ured In the minds of audiences long after the dates and places of the con certs were dim. The Dobson songs were inimitable, because their com poser created a sunshine place for him self In American music Then comes the sad thing we call death, and Tom Dobson's music activi ties are silent. ' But surely such astonishing music gifts as our frienif had are not wasted, not blotted out. What if Tom Dobson's music life in this little sphere of ours is after all merely a preparation for the better, more lasting life that is not visible to those human eyes and human ears of ours, as they are at present constituted? Poets say that long ago, when men lived closer to God and lived purer lives, when money did not so warp our souls, that men and women were more psychic and were able to lift the veil that separates us from infinitude. If that is so and is it not a blessed bone? our friend Tom Dobson has Just rone to the place of reward, where those who work, work not for money and gain, but for the joy of working. Maybe Tom Dobson is not so far from ns after alL J. M. CARUSO'S RELATIVES WRATHT. Park Benjamin, attorney and father-in-law of Enrico Caruso, opera singer. Is wrathy at Caruso because, it is al lseed. Caruso linked his name with that of Mr. Benjamin's son. who was wounded In battle In France and Is now in this country convalescing from his wounds. Mr. Benjamin denounces Caruso for exploitation purposes and Caruso says he doesn't need any advertising from his father-in-law. "It was not that It was Caruso," de clared Mr. Benjamin to a New Tork re porter. "It might have been some other artist, and I would have felt the same way. It is the fact my son waa used a young man who has-honorably discharged the obligations of a soldier in connection with advertising pur poses that I take exceptions to." At the same time Mr. Benjamin ad mitted be had forbidden Caruso his house. "That happened at the time of his marriage to my daughter," Mr. Benja min explained. "Of course, I have never rescinded it." v In order to set rtght the story which had appeared concerning his son and Caruso, Mr. Benjamin sent out the fol lowing letter: "My son, a gunnery sergeant of Ma rines, who has fought all through Bel- leau Wood and Chateau-Thierry, who has been cited for 'conspicuous gallan try an action," who haa been wounded three ttmes and bears three honor chev rons on his arm. and who is now con valescing from still another injury, ar rived here from France 48 hours ago. I found him In the Naval Hospital, where everything that the great kind ness and the surgical skill for which the Navy Is famous can do is being done for him. "I submit that his soldier's honorable wounds and devoted service . should have protected him from being dragged into a bald and blatant advertisement Of Enrico Caruso, a public singer, which appears in the guise of a report of this man's visit to the hospital, which report as to what then took place is a mlsrepf sentatlon of fact." MUSIC BRIEFS. The second rehearsal of the Portland Oratorio Society since the Influenza baa waa lifted waa a decidedly enjoy able one. Eight new members reg istered and others signified their in tention to Join the chorus. "And the Glory." . "O Thou That Tellest." "For Unto Us." "Glory to God."

Mr. Tressi, who recently was en tour in this city, speaks of a wonderful new prima-donna tor the company. so Mra Hall, soprano, sang two soloi at a recent entertainment given by the Knights and Ladies of Security in the Woodmen of the World Hall. Her singing waa much appreciated. A letter haa been received from Miss Ada Alice Tuttle. written in Paris and dated November 12. She sailed from New York October SI on the same steamer with Miss Isom, of Portland, Sarah Bernhardt and a number of Y. M. C A. and Red Cross workers. The trip was a pleasant one save one storm, the landing being at Bordeaux. Miss Tuttle was fortunate to arrive in Paris at the time when the greatest rejoic ing waa being observed following the signing of the armistice. Miss Tuttle is well-known pianist-lecturer of this city. www The quartet choir of the First Meth odist Episcopal Church is preparing a Christmas cantata -entitled "The Star Divine." The text is by F.

Curtis Simmons was sub stituting soprano last Sunday at the Mount Tabor Presbyterian Church. Her solos were "My Redeemer and My Lord" (Dudley BacK). and "No Night There" (Danks). This highly critical, notice of singing at a recent concert of the Apollo Club appears in the Boston Transcript: "Within easy memory, the Apollo Club has sung more interesting muslo than that which filled the larger part of the programme for its concert in Jordan Hall. 'Patriotic pieces' abounded and the quality of such numbers as music seldom matches the merit of the senti ment or mood It is Intended toexpress. One, however, a setting by 'James H. Rogers of Dr. Van Dyke's verses, 'The Name of France,' gave the writer of the words opportunity to return spoken thanks and occasioned acknowledge ment and applause from and to French officers who happened to be in the au dience. As the fortune of the evening went, by far the best conceived .nd written of these "patriotio numbers' was Denghausen s Hail, Land of Liberty, the work of a deceased and cherished member of the club. Mr. Cadman's set ting of parts of Lowell's 'Vision of Sir Launfal' proved too tepid a music for even a men's choir to animate, while the chosen Schumann of 'The Dreamy Lake' was no more than Schumann, vaguely sentimental. Happily, the chorus kept to its excellent standard of song, though the 'patriotic pieces In vlted its volume and precision rather than ita finesse and fluidity, while the other numbers gave too little room for Its brightness of tone and ease of rhythm. Mrs. Williams likewise gave the familiar - pleasure that her light. clear voice and vocal dexterity have often yielded to her townsfolk." o a Musical Mysticism "What Is that tune you were playing on the planoT" "That lsn t a tune. That Is a sonata. "What's the-difference?" "Well, with a sonata It's hard for th average listener to detect mistakea With a tune you've got to know pretty ell what you are about.

"My Aln Folk." by Lemon; Grieg's uniquely beautiful "The Vast Unnumbefd jThrong"; Stan ley Avery's "Song oT the Timber Trail."

An informal recital by students of the EHison-Whlte Conservatory of Music was held last Friday. This was the first one of the regular recitals that will take place Trom time to time and the object of these recitals Is to give the pupils an opportunity to dem onstrate in a practical way what they have accomplished and become ac quainted with their fellow students and watoh each other progress. Among those taking part were: Miss Helen Miles and Miss Ruth Miles, both of Miles City, Mont.; Miss Josephine Rice, Ralph Mulford, Miss Mary Talmadge, violinist; Miss Helen Schuppel, violin ist; Miss Bess Huff, of Baker, Or., and Miss Margaret Not, of Baker, Or. All the students show creditable . musical progress. Miss Winifred Forbes, violinist; Lillian Jeffreys Petri, pianist, and Paul Petri, tenor, all from the faculty of the Elli son-White Conservatory of Music, will give a concert in Pacific College, New berg, Friday night, December 13, and the same soloists will appear at Salem Tuesday night, December 17. At the latter city they will have the assistance of Miss Elsie Mae Gordon, reader. a The locale of this little "peep behind the scenes" was at the New York Hip podrome, where Schumann-Heink was the bright particular star of a big war benefit concert. Appearing on the same programme with her was David Bispham, and the two were overheard reminiscing about the good old daya It is Just about 25 years ago that we first appeared together at Covent Gar den Opera in London, and then at the Metropolitan, said the madame. Yes, indeed, responded the famous baritone, 'and do you know that we are the only two of all our colleagues that are still before the public?" Just think that galaxy which included Nordics, Eames, the De Reszkes, Plancon, Schu mann-Heink and Bispham and only these last two have weathered the vi cissitudes ot time and fate! What a lessen to the youirger .generation of vocalists Js the beauty of Schumann- Heink's voice after more than 25 years of constant usage, and the charm of her art which seems to grow more po tent with the years. o o Arthur Mlddleton, the great Ameri can baritone, has begun a tour of the principal cities of Oklahoma, Nebraska and Colorado which will keep him oc cupied until unnsimas. It was- a refreshing pleasure to at tend the concert of the MacDowell Club In the Little Theater last Tuesday aft ernoon and drink in the inspiration of delightful recital programme, ably interpreted by Miss Winifred Forbes, violinist, and Frits De Bruin, baritone, with Mra Marion W. Seitx and Mra Mary Van Dyke Hardwick piano accom panists. Miss Forbes wisely cnose ior rendition selections which glowed with sparkling tunefulness and bright at mosphere rather than dry, mechanical ly exact technique. She played from memory and played so splendidly that her violin sent out a living music mes sage. Miss Forbes, who is one' of the best among violinists in this section, has a "large" violin tone for a young woman and her art is steadily broaden ing. Her two big numbers were the violin parts of "Sonata No. 1" (Rubin stein) and "Second Polonaise" (Wien- iawski). Mr. De Bruin sang with line voice, cultured style and In true con cert form. His velvety voice is gaining in color and sparkle of tonality and his distinct diction is a treat to hear. He, too, sang from memory. His last song was "I Am Thy Harp" (Wodman), which was grandly and impressively rendered, voice and piano accompani ment being skilfully blended into a concerted treat. Mrs. Seitx and Mrs. Hardwick played admirable accompani menta Both soloists were cordially 'received and extra numbers had to be rendered. ... Mrs. Jane Burns Albert, soprano; Lu clen E. Becker, pianist, and Walter A. Baoon, violinist, appeared in recital under the auspices of the Monday Mu sical Club in the Hotel Portland last Monday afternoon and charmed the , audience with - a finely balanced pro gramme, lira. Albert's pure, silvery soprano is- quite magnetic in auality this season and it has a new Deauty that is noticeable. She makes a splen did platform appearance and is so much of a faithful student that she memorizes the song and unconsciously again lives It, as she Interprets it to her audience. Her memorizing; is all the more re markable at this concert when it was observed that she sang in Italian French and English. "Ah, fors e lin," from "Traviata," is a vocal gem and it was still more beautiful when sung by such a fair young singer. T- feolr (Thomas), and the aria from "Louise' (Carpentier) were also beautifully ren dered. Mra Albert retains her posi tion as one of the leading sopranos of the Northwest. Mr. Bacon played with splendid ability and sparkling tonal effect, .the Gade "Sonata, op. 6' and "Romance," from "Second Concer to" (Wieniawsky) with the assistance of Mr. Becker at the piano. Mr. Becker Dlaved well and with cultivated taste. Mr. Bacon deserves high credit for splendid violin art.

While Mr. Paderewski has no official recognition from this Government, says a New York City correspondent, he is supplied with powers of attorney from the societies to represent them and he doubtless will have an official status when he reaches the other side. With the pianist, who recently sailed on the 'Megantic were Madame Pader ewski, Lieutenant Siegesmund Ivanow ski, of the Polish army, who is Mr. Pad erewski's milRary companion, and his wife, and Edward Piotrowski, bis sec retary. There were also a number of enthu siastic Poles at the pier to bid the party Godspeed and from the ship's side the Padereskis bowed again and again to their cheers. There were several bou quets of roses sent on board and with them, until just before the gangplank was hauled in, was W. O. Gorskl, son of Madame Paderewski and secretary of the Polish committees here. After stating that he would go to Paris and meet the national Polish committee there, which is recognized by all of the allied nations, Mr. Pader ewski said that he would also visit London and Rome and later perhaps take tiia place with Use peace conferees.
