The Chicago symphony orchestra was crftanlzeil by Charles Hcach In 180, with Aclolph Rosenb-cker as conductor. Sixty concerts were given In the UnlteJ States, followed by a festival tour through Canada. So successful were these festivals, artistically and flnancl allv. that a string festival tour was made next season extending from Mon treal, Canada, to San Antonio. Texas. Ktnce that time, eight annual tours have been made by this organization, and the three-day musical festivals "f St. Puul, Omaha, Denver, Salt Lake city and Galveston have become known for their musical excellence, nnd great financial and artistic results. Popular in Canada. In Canada, the Chicago symphony orchestra has filled many Important en gagements, and each year gives a series of 18 concerts In a "Cycle of Urltlsh Musical Festivals." extending from Halifax to Vancouver under the direc tion of Sir Alexander McKenzle. Many of the leading musical cities and fes tival centers have been visited each sea son until In each city the attendants lias become so gratifying that It makes the festival practically self supporting. The orchestra Is now arranging Its ninth season, and another tour to thu Pacific ocean has been arranged under the direction or the Great Western Lyceum and Musical Bureau. The conductor this season Is Herr Adolph Kosenbecker. The organization will number 62 artists, the Instrumen tation belnc beautifully balanced. Four vocalists will add to the strength of the organization, among them being th- well known oratorio singer, Arthur Mlddletnn. The program repertoire will be exceedingly generous and not able as to the composers represented. i mmmm ism i mmmMi 1 iifefer I 1 mrSm a M Advance Styles of Clothing FOR MEN AND BOYS ? : Unique and exclusive styles for the coming season Produced specially f for us by NEW YORK'S foremost . ; WHOLESALE TAILORS Suits and Topcoats In all the newest fabrics and models, all at our usual modest prices i" f $15.00 to $40.00 BEN I NO Leading Clothier EXPLORER MIKKLESEN WILL VISIT PORTLAND THIS MONTH LENT AS A CURE FOR SPIRITUAL DISEASE fsishop Fcadllng has prepared and Be:; to the congregations of the diocese of Oregon the following pastoral letter, calling attention to the proper obserV an. of the Lenten season: My Dear Brethren The worst penalty of sin N not a punishment Inflicted from without; It Is the deterioration of the nature, the loss of spiritual vision, the decline In force and vitality. No m:in can see this without a profound sens. ot thrf tragedy of life and a deep Impulse to help. If help be possible. Hence the need of Lent, ns a time for special self-examination, and the wis dom of our holy mother, the church, In requiring its observance. May I be of help to you this lent by appealing to j-otf in a two-roid way. Alone with God examine your lives and repent truly for nil your past slna. Ievote more time to private prayer nnd to the devotional resiling of the gospels. Do some good each day. Prac tice reasonable self-dontal In eating and drinking. Make real acts of self-denial real enough to be felt especially of Buch a kind as will allow you greater means for alms-giving and offerings to Ihe church. May this Lent be to you Hi a respite both from worry and ex cess of amusement parties, plays nnd the like which during this penitential season the church considers unchristian and even the world considers "bad form." . Our besetting sin Is the breaking of the Lord's day. or neglect of the public worship of Almighty God. This terrible Imploty, which Is widespread among us, la a three fold evil. It Is n symptom of spiritual disease: It Is Itself a grlev- ' ous sin, and is a sure cause of religious decay ar.d death. A wave of lrrellglon has been sweep- . lng over this country. Some who used always to be "in the spirit on the Lord's day" began to spend that most holy and blessed day In mere Idleness and sloth, then In purely physical exercises nnd amusements or In domestic and social festivities, forgetting God. Hut such waves of popular corruption and folly ought no more to move a church, man ami "child of God" than the pass ing clouds move a granite hill. I therefore bespeak your faithful and loving observance of this Lent, with all Its duties and Its privileges, and Its opportunities for public worship and Instruction. I would remind you of our missionary appointments and of assessments for the Episcopal fund, for which many appeals reach you, some of them from my own pen. Would that those appeals were not necesRary! Would that the bishop and his clergy were relieved rrom BeTVUlR tables thAt they might more abundantly administer the word of God. Oh, that our laity would re lease the clergy from so much distaste ful Importuning and begging and nag King and harping about necessary ex penses, until men's spiritual senses are dull, and take these things upon their own shoulders, where they belong. Ex amine the tabulated statement printed In Trinity Chimes and the Portland Churchman and note what Is hoped for from your parish, and do your best to meet the situation. The appointments are on a basis of 45 cents for missions outside of Oregon and 50 cents per com municant for diocesan missions. "Let every man do according as he Is dis posed In his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God lovuth a cheerful elver." i Finally, It Is my wish and prayer j that all or us clergy and Inlty alike may make our Easter communion worthily, devoutly and to our great and endless comfort. Faithfully and affectionately vours, CHARLES SCADIHNO, Bishop of Oregon. Captain EJnard Mlkkleson. the Arctic explorer, Is now en route to the Pacific coast from Nome, Alaska, which point he reached from Hlrshell Island on Jan uary 6f and will be In Portland some time this month. Captain Mlkkleson was sent nut by the American Geographical society of New York and the Itoval Geographical society of London, which for the first lime combined to send an explorer to search for land, deep water and make scientific observations. Captain Mlkkleson left Victoria, Hrltlsh Columbia, the 21M day of May. 11105, with the 60-ton schooner I'uchess of liedi'ord, which us lost at I'laxmen Island In January, 1U07. The Island was the winter quarters of the expedition. When Captain Mlkkleson left civil ization he believed he should find land In Heaufort sra, about 800 miles north of the Alaskan coast, which he hop.'d to make by sled, but he found deep water so close to the main land tluit this theory was given up, and ho will make his next attempt by boat. Captain Mlkkleson said in Nome, that he considered the search for the north pole futile, as it Is Impossible, under existiag conditions, to carry scientific Instruments on sleds over the Ice, and consequently observation would be out of the question. In his lecture before the Woman's club at Nome Captain Mlkkleson stated he had always be lieved Jthat the Ice drifted east, but he drifted west Instead, at a remarkable rate, drifting at one tlms 73 miles In elt-iit days. The lemnant of the expedition Is now at Hirshell Island under the charge of Mr. Let f ingwell. Captain Mlkkleson's partner In the enterprise. The principal features of the next ex pedition have already been outlined and It will go via the Paiiflc coast. This Is tho fourth expedition that Captain Mlkkleson has made, and yet ho Is but " years of age. He will go to London and lecture before the society that sent htm north Spring1 Millinpry. Mme.
