"On .Wednesds y afternoon Henry W. . Karaite save a nrofesslonal matinee. nt , which he presented three, prima donnas . in the title role during; a single per- formance. It, was unique, . but Savage ; was persuaded to give that' kind of a program in response to the-number of letters rrora people of the profession,' who wished to hear some particular one " of the three prima donnas. Each one m-as. selected for the act that Is con sidered her best. ' For ' Instance,- Miss Eaaton. who makes Innocence the high- ; est light of the character, was selected for the- first act Miss Vivian, who urines out the devoted wire and patient I rstthfuiness, was selected for the sec fond, and Mm.' Szainosy, who shows the winer siae or -tjunerciy s cnaracter. a fiery.- emotional creature,, was selected . Tor ths third. The matinee waa a sue . cess, and at the end of the performance the three singers were called before the curtain many times. ; "Madam Butterfly" finished at ; the Garden, theatre on ' December ' 23 and atarta on a tour, . and ' on Christmas night "The Student King.", with He bartanell aa prima donna, formerly-at ine Metropolitan, opens aa engage- , meat. . - --, Christmas mualo wilt ' b a special feature, of. the services at the White Temple Bundajr.

Those who. remember Miss Nash's last mjI.I . tiim- TTnltarfan chnnel will tta ' ' glad to know of her arrangements for a second recital, which wiu be more pre tentious In character, than the' last. The striking feature of her program will be the playing of the first movement of the - Techalkowsky ' B Flat Minor concerto, : with which the great Lhevlnne made a startling 'Jebut with the New Tork Sym phony orchestra this season. The or chestral parts will be played by Harold 'Vincent MHligan on a second piano. It ta an Immense composition and wonder ful In detail, being extremely modern and extremely Russian. - The Mossrt concerto In E Flat Major will be given In its first movement to open the proayera with. Mr.- Mllllgan playing the orchestral parts. The other r . To Appeal; at double numbers the Ktrshner wsltses and the 8chun.atinAndante,, with varia tions are written for two pianos and will be given so. Miss Nash will also give a Mosskowsky solo group.. The unique arrangement of .the. program, with Its departure from the regulation piano concert schedule, Is a matter of Interest said doubtless many will go to hear Miss Nash, whoso ability as a mu sician 1 undisputed. " ' . , ( ; .,; " " Today Is shown a picture of Frank 8. Elchenlaub. violinist, who Is making a great success of hla work In Europe. Aa mentioned on last Sunday's. music page, YMr. Eiebenlaub Is a Vancouver boy, who formerly studied, with Regt- .iff - i ' Frank S. Eichenlaub, Successful Western Violinist in Europe. - nsld Hidden Jn. Portland. He has been pupil of Rubellk a "..great master. Sevstc, and will soon go to Brussels to study with Yea ye, who accepted him Im mediately as one of hla limited number of pupils on hearing him play... Gadski at the Metropolitan. 1 There has" been so much talk ever slnca the Operatic season opened about the possibility of Madame Gadskl's re turn to the Metropolitan opera house that the announcement that Conrled and the-madnme had come to -terms occa sioned more delight than actual - sur prise It will bo remembered "that some three seasons ago, the Metropolitan di rector availed himself of a clause In his contract with the singer which enabled him to give her notice. Madame Gadski claimed that the procedure was r V I. f ! f I '' MANDOLIN GUa.UmyE??rtSI3rQ OR-E.GQN : the Heilij Friday With the Oregon " GAETA iVORPA WQLP with the intention of forcing ber to a reduction of salary and waa in direct opposition to the verbal agreement aha had with blra. The Impresario and the artist separated and the latter made herself one ef the moat-popular lieder singers In the country. This aeaaon Mr-. Conreld suddenly found himself minus a Wagnerian so prano, due to the inability of Madame Ternlna. and Madame Morena to come to Iew York as they had contracted to do. There waa no other well-known Wagnerian soprano obtainable and Con rled was compelled to seek the services of Madame Qadskl. This conclusion probably forced itself on him the more dearly because the public was clamor ing for lta favorite and the New York papers spoke plainly of the need felt ani the people'a hope. . Madame Qadskl will appear at the Metropolitan In New York the first week In February.' It la aafe to aay that she charged the Herr Direktor a goodly sum for her appearances and her former chagrin and that she forced him to pay It. There are many wlm rejoice with her In her final victory, but after all It was a desire to hesr her magnificent voice, not to see her "get even," that makes New York rejolee over the result, - - , ; ... : Carmen, Paat and Present. L The new Carmena have revolutionised the operatic world, and everywhere Ma ria Gay and Bresler-Glanoll are talked of Calve seems to have lost prestige in the role that made her famoua. The success or Maria Gay In London, It is said. Is unprecedented in the history of Covent Garden, in one week she t came a great drawing card,, and that la leaa time than It took to make Fattl or any of them draw. Her Carmen was a Glee ' Club. - '17 1 ' r great advance In realism on Calve s, and ths press rang with her praise. But Bressler-Glanoll, It seems, has eclipsed even Maria Uay. Her Carmen at the Manhattan In New York is dis tinctly pronounced onf.,uf-Ahe sensa tlohs of the season and critics declare that If she could not sing a note she would be famous as an actress. But she has a magnificent voice, too. Her Car; men is. not the Parisian coquette of Calve; she is the real wild gypsy that Merlmee wrote or and that Blset put Into hot, passtona'te muslo.' If Olanoll's success in other roles approaches ber success as Carmen she will be one of the moat marked aucceasea of the aea aon; but even as it la ahe has already made her name talked of with admira tion and wonder, and Carmen can never fall back now to the tlght-laced creature of . former Interpreters. She has come Into ber own sphere, won recognition there, andwlll stay. . ... r . . . ',''.,''' College Boys' Music. The leading event In muslo thla week will be the concert given by the Uni versity of Oregon Glee and Mandolin clubs Friday evening at the Helllg the atre. On account of failure to . aeoure the theatre .thla - event waa post poned from Thanksgiving, when It Is usually given after the Multnomah Oregon football game and In a manner It now marks the close of tbe football season. . The club sang and played to a standing-room-only house a the Mar quam last year at Thanksgiving and ths standard then set by their, excellent program won them such favor as will assure them a crowded 'house Friday. 'While the boys represent a email , in stitution their work Is equal In merit to that given by the clubs from larger Institutions heard her and their col lege spirit cannot be surpassed. -Under the direction of Professor Irving M. Glen, the dean of the U. O. School of muslo and one of the best1 bari tones on ths coast, the club haa( been giving hlsh grade concerts for 10 years or so at homo and supplementing them by tripa throughout the - state, which have won them much' friendship and admiration. . ' - Just before the holidays the club gave concerts- In Southern Oregon and Salem and Albany and met with en thusiaatio success In every town. In Eugene their concert was pronounced one of the best efforts In tbe history of ths club, stsmped both with real muslo and real fun. The ' selections sung are aa a general thing of excel lent music though there are plenty of numbers lending the laughable ele ment. Professor Glen gives a solo and this Is always. the climax of the seri ous muslo of th program. Roy Kelly of Oregon City I the "stuntlst" this year and In all the concerts so far he has made a hit. There are some ex cellent soloists ' among the club boys and several "of them appear on the program. This year a new song, nan to Oregon, written and composed by Louis A, Henderson, a member of the club, is presented and it has struck the popular ear with favor. -The manager of the club Is Hsrley Glafk of this city. - Several Portland boys are members and local Interest Is thus increased somewhat.

The Holy Infant" (Ballard), which was given Sunday evening at the First Congregations! church Is deserving of special mention aa It Is perhsps the best work that very good choir has yet dona There waa a large audience to hear It and they were evidently pleased with th work of th choir. The cantata la a music lanly work giving splendid opportunities for both solo and ensemble work, and each alnger did th beat In hla or Aer power.

Paderewskl nsya that her husband has been absorbed through the fall and early winter with his new symphony, In which, during th process of revision, he has made many changes, it Is on account of thla thafr he canceled hla engagements with . th Boston Symphony orchestra for a series of -concerts in January, for he could not find the time to practice. and as he has hardly touched th piano sine Isst spring, he felt that h could not do himself justice. During the 1st winter he will give concerts In ths British provinces, with one or two ap pearances In London.
