TAGLIERI SUITERS FIRE LOSS
Gio Tyler Tagllerl. the daddy of opera
tenors in this city and the faithful
friend of all who are musically in
clined, suffered a loss by fire at his
art studio. Nineteenth street near
Everett, about 2 A. last Monday
and It looked at one time as if his fa
mous pictures of Arab chiefs. Turkish
lamps, and general bric-a-brac would
go up in smoke and flame.
A portion was saved, and his per
sonal loss is about 11200. The Cole
man residence where he and Mrs
Taglieri mad their home with Mrs.
Taglierl s mother, Mrs. L. P. Coleman
was damaged to the extent of (8000
partially covered by insurance. The
only circumstance that saved the
house from being razed to the ground
was the forethought of the late Mr.
Coleman who saw to It that his house,
built about 30 years ago. had inside
walls made first of Portland cement
and then of plaster.
The origin of the fire is thought by
tnelagllerls to be caused principally
by electric wire .trouble. The house
had been enlarged and repaired lately.
Mr. Tagllerl was awakened by the
janitor who told him that the house
was on fire. Hurredly dressing. Mr,
Tagerl was surprised that he smelled
no smoke, but thought he detected the
crackle of flames. He and Mrs. Tag
llerl looked out the Nineteenth street
window.- and saw that about 200 Deo
pie were standing on Trinity church
lawn directly opposite, and on inquiry
found that the roof, etc had been on
fire for one hour previously. No time
was lost In moving the Taglieri art
treasures, pictures, and a small host
of keepsakes. -
when the firemen arrived, thev ex
perienced difficulty in getting the
nozzles of the fire hose through the
rrame structure of the, house, because
of the wall construction of cement.
several holes were made in the frame
structure, and latterly separate jets
of flame appeared- at each. The fire
was only extinguished by being de
luged with water.
It Is pleasant to know that the Ta.sr-

artistic progress that within a short
time he was prepared to go to pre
war Berlin for the serious study of
piano.
It was la Germany that -Reuter's
pianlstio training was received at the
hands of the great master, Earth, ana .
from lludorf f. Dohnanyl and - Max
Bruch; and it was here also that he
began his real musical career, playing
the Brahma concerto with the. famous
Hamburg Philharmonic orchestra in
1910 when only 19 year of age. The
reception accorded him on this oc
casion was such that his future was
assured. Immediately, he found him
self the recipient of many offers for
concert engagements, which he filled
with signal success, before later ac

By recent vote of the board of di
rectors of the public library, only one
vecal society will be allowed to have
rehearsals there, the Portland Ora
torio society, Joseph A. Finley, con
ductor. It-was considered that music
rehearsals In that building cause an
noyance to the general public who are
there to read. Th Portland Oratorio
society, which has met regularly In
central library hall, will henceforth
be compelled to meet in room A, iso
lated from th main reading and ref
erence rooms and rather constricted In
space. An additional point In favor
of the new arrangement is that room
A Is practically sound-proof. Director
Woodward suggested that harmonic
practice would best be relegated to
th municipal auditorium, where, as
he expressed it. "there is unlimited
room for expansion."
