NEW YORK, July 17 (Special'. Philip S. Bernlih.4m.i- chamberlain, was a. royal host on Friday morning even though plana did go pitifully awry bo far as con cerned the landing; of the passengers on board the Olympic, (which made a truly historic trip. Some of the best; known figures in the musical life of the world were invited by the mayor of New York to board the tu if boat Patrol to go out to meet the Olympic, which came bearing the New York Symphony orchestra back from lt trimuphs abroad. There was some uncertainty about its landing as this -was the first timo in history a transatlantic steamer was traveling on oil instead; of eoaU and it was thought it might come In too late or too early as the case, might be. It was announced early and a great boatload of celebrities responding to Mayor Hylan's invita tion, together with the Goldman on cert band headed by the gallant band-' master. Edwin Franko Goldman, went to meet the orchestra which was to be conveyed straight to the mayor's reception room where a reception was to be given in its nor.or and in honor of its presiuent, Harry Harkness Flagler, who had maae possible this trip. It is a pity to be compelled to state "was to be given" but the powers that be willed It differently and it was discovered or suspected that smallpox or typhus or some . other equally interesting condition had broken out in the steerage and the passengers in consequence were -not allowed to leave the boat. The tug-, boat went valiantly out to meet the Olympic and there were outbreaks of various, sorts of emotions as the "meeters" and the "t be mets" caught sight of each other. , In addition to the New York Sym. phony orchestra with its own solo ists. Albert Spalding and John Powell, other notables on board were Sophia Braslau. Reinald Werrendath, Lam bert Murphy, Jascha Heifetz. also home-comers from European triumphs. The Goldman band played numerous welcomes, the voices of AVerrenrath. Murphy. Miss Brasslau and the other singers wafted forth to meet the music of the tugboat and Mr. Berolzheimer had prepared a mar velous lunch supplied by Louis Sherry, all of which made a picnic but a most disappointing one. . At least the mayor of New York, in arranging for the welcome to the New York Symphony orchestra, did not fall behind the courtesies and honors tendered to this organization abroad, all of which would requirs .columns to describe. The mayor's committee of welcome included Harry Harkness Flagler, honorary chairman; Otto Kahn, Henry Seligman, Edwin T. Rice, Daniel Frohman. Wm. S. Hawk, Jacob H. Schiff. Felix Warburg. David Mannes, Frederick H. Comstock, Anning S. Frail, president of the board of edu cation: Frank A. Eschman. deputy commissioner: John P. O'Brien, cor poration counsel: Edward F. Glennon, supreme court justice; William J. Lahey, second deputy police commis sioner; John Daly, fourth deputy police commissioner; Bird S. Coler, commissioner of public welfare; Frank J. Monachal), deputy health commissioner; Edwin Franko Gold man. Edward Robinson, Theo B. Wag ner. Henry L. Seymour and Joseph P. Hennessey, commissioner of parks, borough of Bronx. The conditions surrounding the home-coming of the New York Sym phony orchestra made it imperative (hat any honors to be extended must be done upon the arrival of this great hody as it only passed through New York on its way to Chautauqua, where it is engaged for a period, of six weeks. The first half of these concerts will be conducted by William Willeke and the latter half by Rene Follain,.botn assistant conductors of the organiza tion. M. Pollain was a great favorite last season and wherever he has been heard praises are also loud for Mr. Willeke, who has upon numerous oc casions replaced Mr. Damrosch at a few minutes' notice. Classical con certs will be given on Monday eve nings and at the Wednesday matinees while those of Saturday evenings will be of a more popular nature. Twi light concerts in the open are planned for Thursday and Friday evenings. These will be given on the' veranda of the Athenaeum hotel, - while the amphitheater seating 6000 people will be placed -at the disposal of the orchestra for the' other concerts. The Chautauqua institution : will provide a chorus of 600 voices known as the Chautauqua choir and there will be a quartet and solists to sing at orchestral concerts when choral numbers are placed upon the pro grammes. William C. Bridgman has trained the choir,, being in. charge of the Chautauqua musical activities. Some of the choral works to be heard this summer include Saint Saens" "Samson and Delila" in concert form. Horatio Parker's "Hora Novissima," Rossini's "Stabat Mater" and. Han del's "Samson." The concert reper tory will be the most ingratiating that this great orchestra has to offer, which is enough to say. HOSPITAL CENTER NAMED Centralia Station to Serve South west Washington. CENTR ALIA, Wash.. July 17. (Spe cial.) Word was received today from Washington. D. C. that the United States public health service has desig nated Centralia as a hospital center for southwest Washington, for. the purpose of furnishing medical - and surgical treatment to ex-service men under the war risk insurance act.

Or.. July 17. Special.) A great scarcity of teachers in Linn county during -the coming school year is in prospect. Mrs. Ida M. Cumuiings. county school superintendent, fears that- unless applications are received more rapidly than they have been many schools will be without. teachers next year.
