ASK IIORDICA TO G FAVOR T ES Writers of a Legion Letters Eequest Special Songs "of the Great Diva. Tha mere ; announcement that Madams Nordlca would sing on the Thursday evening; program of tha New York Symphony orchestra under her old friend, Walter Damrosch, has been enough to flood the diva's mall with special requests for certain old and new favorites, which ; the writers have at some time heard the great prima - donna ' sins;.:' . " " '.. - - The first plan was for her to give simply ' Wagnerian numbers on tha Wagner program Thursday evening, but being about, the most gracious and obliging personage that any one could imagine, M me. Nordlca finds herself rather, overwhelmed with the flood of letters and notes asking, even begging, for certain songs. No doubt she will accede to the popular demand and not only present some of her famous Wag nerian songs, but give a group of some certain period, or composer, or per haps two or three special favorites: for certainly the demand for this is enough to cause the singer to stop and con sider, even were, she not always ready and glad to oblige her audiences every where. Tomorrow evening at the armory the first Of the three great orchestral con- certs by Walter Damrosch and his New 10m Bympnony orcnestra win be given, and there will be a tremendous house to greet the famous conductor, as the aale of seats for-tha Wednesday night concert has been unusually strong, rue sears ror mis, as wen as for the two performances to be given on Thursday afternoon and evening, are now selling at tha Sherman-Clay box office, which is open from 10 o'clock until t la - the evening.

' If anyone sees a dark-complexioned citizen, of . 'Naples' headed due north, and bearing a lycopo dlum torch and other valuable property, and will turn him back, ha will earn the undying gratitude of the advertiser. When last seen the missing man was headed toward the river, and was mak ing 40 feet to the lope and about 16 knots to the hour. 'Address Pain's 'Ve suvius,' Multnomah athletio field, Port land." .. - , If ever there was an astonished col ored gentleman, it was Jeff Jackson of Heroulaneum, Alabama, when "Vesu vius" erupted about 10 o'clock last night. To most of the resldenta of. "Naples" ft" litWethinf Jike the eruption of a volcano was an every-day, or rather an every-night, affair. But Jeff Jackson had Just come up from Alabama, where there was nothing more explosive than cotton mills, moonshine and sugar cane, except in the rolling; mills, and he had served an apprenticeship in one of them He had heard that there - was big money oO cents a night or something like that) in carrying a torch, and he let the other Neapolitan citizens under stand that when it came to "dog-gone torch bearin'." there wasn't a man in "old Alabamyt who could hold a can dle, leastwise a torch, to old Jeff Jackson,-' :. Invested In a toga and placed In com mand of one of those lycopodlum torches which you swish to and fro to make them burn and which flare according to the amount of wind blown againat mem, ne was placed in tbe procession, but by some oversight the meaning ,oi the catastrophe waa not explained to mm. -. .: When the noisy eruption and earth quake took pjace, and the populace ran io ana iro, screaming in simulated ter ror, Jeff Jackson took It for the real thing and broke from cover In dead earnest. Wild with terror, he scaled the exposition fence and sprinted north ward at a pace little lesa tnan phe nomenal. As he ran. the swaying torch marked his progress with a flare of light which would have excited ad miration, had not the beholders been busy watchinj the apectaclejwlthln the enclosure. North end citliens declare that they saw' some one in a toga doing quick atunts tnrougn tna streets oz roruana and yelling as though a ghost or a band of kuklux was after him and that he seemed- quite bereft of reason. Jeff Jackson was missed Immediately after tbe fireworks display and inquiries were made for him. The management is es pecially solicitous for the missing toga and torch, but so far as could be learned Jeff Jackson was still running and he may be running yet. Hence the reward that is offered for his safe return to "Vesuvius.". ': Waterworks Extension Goes, 1 (Special Ptupatca. to The Journal.) ' Olympla, Wash., June 2 The at temnt of P. la.

JOURNAL S Mils EAGERLY AWAITED Crowd Surrounds Newspaper Corner, Cheering for Chamberlain. Hundreds of people swarmed , about The Journal office last night and re mained there anxiously watching eleo tlon returns till midnight. It was a well-ordered crowd which conducted It self quietly, but there was a great deal Of Interest which manifested itself In occasional cheers. From the first the returns on - tne eenatoranip seemed to show Chamberlain In the lead, and tha greatest enthusiasm was evinced as each new bulletin oiled ud his matoritv. " The greatest interest was, of course, cemerea in tne senatorial contest, tne competition between O'Day and Morrow for judge, the shrievalty and district attorneyship contests. The returns were very slow coming in because a heavy vote had been cast over the entire state, but by midnight the returns showed pretty clearly how things were going, and the crowd began to disperse. Gen eral satisfaction seemed to predominate, Good-natured betting on Cake's chances with heavy odds for Chamberlain called forth a good deal' of amusement among tha Chamberlain supporters.
