Attractive Program Will Be
Rendered With Haydn's
1 Symphony a Feature.
OWING to conflicting dates with
other attractions at th'e.Heilig, the
Portland Symphony orchestra con
Pert announced for Sunday afternoon,
f arch 7, has been postponed till Sun
day afternoon. March H. It Is possi
ble that arrangements will be. made
for the orchestra to itivc a concert at
l-'aleni o;i the afternoon of March 7,
however, Mrs. 1?. E. Talt, business
nianager, having recelvrt many re
quests from the capital for a concert
tlii'r e this season.
Mo.se f'hrlsterinen will conduct the
unhestfa at this concert, which is the
fifth of t lie . fourth season, and lie has
chosen a program of remarkable
beauty, with Haydn's symphony No.
2 in 1 Major as the principal offering.
This symphony is one of much bril
liancy and was written during the per
iod when the famous comtioaer was
i ins oesi. i lie Bympnony is ratner
short, as though in the usual four
movements, and for that reason the
first part of the program will consist
of Massenet's charming overture
"Phedre"' and the symphony.
The second part of the program will
consist of Richard Wagner's Siegfried
Idyll, a composition that , gives re
markable opportunities for the string
section: Armas Jarnefelt's "Pra'hid
ium" and "13erceu.se." both charming
tone poems; Taubcrt's "r.iehe'sliod
schen" for strings only, and Eduarl
Lalo's "Nowfglan Rhapsodies, No. 1."
Jaroefelt and Lalo arc both new com
posers to the orchestra, the former
being Finnish and a relative of the
famous .lean Sibelius. I.alo Is a Bel
gian composer and tills lends consid
erable Interest to this number at this
particular time.
Taubcrt's "Licbcsliedschen'' as the
name" implies, is a song of love voiced
through the most expressive of all
musical Iristrumchts. the strings,
is a picture of intense emotions.

u
"Ave .Maria. .My latth Looks
lo Thee" Is tbe title of a duct
i"p
for
voices of medium range, composed by
laniol H. Wilson of this city and
;Jiist ' published by (Iraves Music com
pany. Its very simplicity is perhaps
Its moHt appealing duality and it will
undoubtedly prove very popular for
both church and concert work. An
octave is the widest range.

SCHUMANN-HEINK CONCERT
AT E1LERS RECITAL HALL
Most Admired of All Contralto Becord
Assisted by Well Known
Local Talent.
Ernestine Schumann-Heink Is the
most popular and beloved contralto
who has ever visited America. Her su
perb voice and thoroughly artistic
singing and acting, as well as her
genial personality, have endeared her
to audiences everywhere.
Mme. Schumann-Heink is the daugh
ter of Heir Kossler, an Austrian army
Officer, who, at the time of her-birth
was stationed In Lieben, Bohemia. At
the age of 10 little .Ernestine was sent
to the convent of the Ursulinn nuns In
1'rague, where she sang in the choir
but entirely- by ear. Her father watl
afterward transferred to Graz, where
a teacher named Marietta von I
'lair, who had recognized the signs
which told of a voice worth cultivat
ing, kindly offered to give the bud
ding genius her best efforts without
pay. The girl's voice at that time was
a deep contralto, with no high notes.
The wise teacher kept her on nothing
but exercises for two years before si e
cave her songs by Mendelssohn, Schu
oert and other- composers. Her first
cppeaiance in New York was in 189S
and she was such a great success that
American audiences refused to allow
her r return to tlertnanv. She has
now taken up her residence here and
has- become an American eitizeness,
making only short trips to Europe to
till special engagements.
This singer's capacity for work 's
pimply phenomenal, and her record of
in 'our and one-half months, is sti'I
rtmv inhered,, as a feat unequaled by
any prima donna.
But the engagements which interest
the largest number of persona are
those which the treat contralto fills
in the Victor laboratory. Large as her
audiences always are.- they would seem
email indeed compared to the great
public she sings to by means of the
Victrola, She says her income from
concerts and making of records is
$135,000 annually.
That all may hear her wonderful
records, the public is cordially Invited
to attend the free concert in the re
cital ball of the Eilers Talking Ma
chine company on the second floor of
the Eilers building, Broadway at Al
der street, each afternoon this week
at 3 o'clock. Complimentary ticket3

Includes the Portland Commons, tho

C. J. McCusker is the physician In

Louise homels one of service. "In
asmuch as you did it unto the least of
these my brethren, ye did it unto me"
is the spirit which animates the work
ers. While tbe sppit f those in
charge is of the best yet the homo
itself is wretchedly inadequate to the
work. It occupies a flimsy old wooden
structure that in case of fire would be
a veritable fire trap.
Miss Beatrice Prosser, the assistant
matron, took me through the K5frne.
The basement is dark and small, the
floor being rough and uneven and the
stationary tubs old and leaky. "Of
course it seems hard to have the girls
do the washing for themselves and the
babies in this dark and sloppy base
ment, but it is the best we can do."
said Miss Prosser. We went next to
the kitchen and dining room. The
house is built in the old style. The
object of the builder seems to have
been to see how many rooms he could
make In a given space, consequently all
of the rooms are small, the dining

poor apologies for stoves, the oven of
one of them having been broken so
that it cannot be used. Up a dark,
narrow, winding stairway we went, to
the next story where the office and
some of the bedrooms are located. Up
another equally narrow, winding stair
way we took our way to the top story
and went through the cell like bed
rooms of the girls. In a small room
four cots a're located, two of the cots
being occupied. "This is our hospi
tal." said Miss Prosser. "Of course
like most of the rest of the equipment
it is Inadequate but it is the best we
have. The student doctors come here
in childbirth cases and if any compli
cation arises Dr. C. J. McCusker him
self comes. Our girls come from all
over the state. The little girl that
you spoke to in the kitchen is 13 years
old. She will not become a mother for
a month or two yet. Come out on the
porch and I will show you some of our
youngest citizens." On the porch were
hanging three clothes baskets in which
three recent arrivals were snugry en
sconced. "All three of the babies are
boys." said Miss Prosser. "And all
of them have been born within the
past month. During the past year we
have admitted 60 girls to the home.
We have had 12 babies born here and
taken in 11 young girls with their
babies. Of the 60 girls admitted 16
were under IB years of age. five were
under 15 years of age, four under 14
years of age and one was under 13.
The remaining 31 girls range from 18
to 35 years of age. Seventy-six cases
were handled by William Gordon Mac
Laren, the superintendent of tbe work.
26 of the cases were prosecuted and 22
convictions secured. Twenty girls were
taken on parole. In the cases in which
prosecution occurred the men are
prosecuted for ruining young girls."

his dinner. He wanted it at once. He
was announcing the fact that he wa
hungry not with a querulous wail but
with a lusty roar that certainly proved
he had good lungs.
X,aok of Home Training Deplored.
"What brings most of your girls
here?" I said to Miss Prosser. "After
examining hundreds of cases I think
I can answer your question by saying
lack of home training. Lack of home
training is caused by a number of
things. Friction in the home, divorce,
immorality of the parents and th
mistaken attitude of allowing the chil
dren too much liberty and an utter
lack of discipline, all of these are con
tributing causes, but broadly speaking
you might say that lack of home train
ing causes most girls to go astray.
"Many people ask, 'Why don't you
make the man marry the girl he has
ruined?' One of the reasons why this
cannot be done is the fact that more
girls are ruined by married men than
by single men. so that the man who
ruins the girl cannot marry his oftery
tlmea innocent victim.
"We t.re crowded to our capacity a,ll
of the time. We can only keep from
12 to 15 girls and we usually have ap
plications for at least 40 cases. No
particular class of society furnisheH
our inmates. Two of the girls now
here are high school girls, three are
girls from the grade schools, one is a
stenographer, one Is a servant girl,
one of the girls was induced to enter
an immoral life through the per
suasions of her mother. We take the
girls in 'without .questions or without
thought of pay. "if they can later re
imburse us we are glad'to have them
do so. If they cannot nothing is said.
We try to find work for them when
they leave and we try to get the girls
to keep their children. In fact most
of the girls want to keep their chil
dren for a baby brings its' love with it.
The father has desalted the girl. The
baby is all she has left and she loves
him with a protecting love that th-i
sheltered mother probably can not
know. Miss Bessie D. Danskin is the
matron here, I am the assistant. Miss
Nelson is the nurse. Miss Belle David
son is the field worker and Miss Emma
Lovett is the superintendent. Mias
Lovett is also the superintendent of
the Albertina Kerr Nurcry.
Cost of Maintaining Home.
"The Louise home and tbe Nursery
home work is in very close affiliation.
The average number of girls kept hers
during the year is 12. Just at present
we happen to have 13. The total cost
of running the home for the past year
amounted to J1B61.64. This makes a
per capita cost of about $10.85 per
month per girl. When I tell you that
the four workers received a total
amount of $203.35 for their salary
during the year or a little less than
$51 apiece for their year's work you
will see that the Institution is not run
for what the workers are making out
of it. What we are working for is the
satisfaction" we get from service ren
dered to those who much need help.
That verse on the wail applies to the
workers as well as it does to the girl
who come here." Hanging in a promi
nent place In the front room is an il
luminated motto which reads: "May
Jesus reign within this dwelling and
mav we be indwelt by his love and
grace. Thus whether it be work or
play or pain we shall be kept till he
comes again."
"You can understand that when an
average number of 12 girls and four
workers are fed for an average of
$1.10 per month that we do not live
very high. Today our breakfast con
sisted of oatmeal, toast and tea. For
dinner we had mashed potatoes, suc
cotash bread, gravy and butter, and
for supper tonight we will have tea,
soup, bread and butter and fruit.
Twice a week we try to have meat for
dinner. Yes. the building is old, in
convenient, dark and a fire trap, but
we try to do as good work as we can
and make the girls realize that though
they have made a mistake yet they
can go from the Louise home and
make a new start and become clean,
useful and productive citizens."

Rose Culture Is
Wortny of Stvdy
By E. B. McFarland.
PART OXK
It seems almost incredible, yet it is
true, tl at all the splendid roses we now
grow vhave been produced from the
small, single species found in the dif
ferent countries of the world. By care
ful selection and cultivation, and by
crossing and intercrossing the original
species, the present result has been ob
tained. China and Japan have furnished a
number of varieties. Among them the
Rugosas and the handsome little Poly
atithas. From the Island of Bourbon England
received the Bourbon race of roses
about the year 1825. Sou De La Mal
mason Is a sample of this class.
The Damask rose Is a native of Sy
ria, and was Introduced into England
about the sixteenth century. The
striped York and Lancaster Is a type of
this variety. 1
The tea scented roses, which are
noted for their delicacy and tbe variety
of their beautiful blooms, originated in
France about the year 1800, and were,
no doubt, obtained from crossing the
native roses.
North America produced the Noiset
tes, of which the well known yellow
Marechal Niel is a striking example.
The Austrian yellow is of European
origin. The Persian yellow Is a native
of Persia. From the last two species
all our beautiful yellow roses have been
derived by propagation with' other vari
eties. Roses came into prominence a little
more than 50 years ago. About that
time the first exclusive rose shows
were held in England. Before that
time they were shown in agricultural
fairs only. The holding of the special
rose exhibitions brought them directly
to the attention of the people, and they
gained many devoted admirers, who
have ever since Increased In numbers
corresponding to the improvement in
the quality of flowers. At that time
the Bourbon and Damask roses and
roses of that class were the principal
ones shown. But llttie progress was
made In the varieties for a number of
years, although . the quality of the
blooms wre .grealy Improved and? the
people educated to greater effort.
Slowly the Hybrid Perpetqals were
Introduced, and finally became the
principal roses grown and exhibited.
JTiis is not to be wondered at. If you
consider their great advance In size,
color, form and fragrance . and the
length of their blooming period.
About the year 1S76 the National
Rose society of England was started.
Their efforts were directed toward ths
extension and Improvement of rose cul
ture. They held regular yearly exhibi
tions, and gave premiums as at the
present time.
There is no doubt that exhibitions do
a great deal toward the propagation cf
fine roses. Each grower, of course,
produces the best he can. The result is
many superior flowers, the "survival of
the fittest." The people are educated
to know and cultivate the best.
To the efforts of the National Rose
society is due In large measure the
high quality' of roses we now posses"?.
By the ready purchase of the new vari
eties produced, at increased cost, they
encouraged the producer to fresh ef
forts in hybridizing, and also helped to
educate the people to appreciate them.
For the next 20 years the Hybrid Per
petual reigned supreme, the principal
prizs going to them.
Cross Fertilization Tried.
About the year 1890 Charles Darwin's
book on the "Origin of Species" caused
some thinking people to 'put in practice
his theory of "cross fertilization,"
from which all the Hybrid Tea blooms
we now have have been produced. The
pollenlzlng of the strong growing, bril
liant Hybrid Perpetuals, with the beau
tiful, but delicate. Teas, have given U3
the splendid ever-blooming Hybrid Teas
which now comprise about nine tenths
of the roses shown. Here we have
roses with the substance and vigorous
constitution of the Hybrid Perpetuals,
one of the parents, and with the beauti
ful colors of the other parent the Tea.
The real development of the race began
about 1890, and since then one fine
bloom after another has been produced
so fast that It is hard to keep track of
them.
It is not necessary to say that all the
new varieties are superior to the older
ones. Such Is not the case. Many of
the older varieties, on account of spe
cial qualities, will no doubt hold their
place for a long time to come. ,
For a time there was a tendency to
propagate only the large, full flowers
to the neglect of the beautiful, but
thinner, decorative varieties. But now
tho latter are fully appreciated.
It Is possible now to get roses in al
most endless varieties suitable for ev
erything flowers are used for. There
are more than 1500 Wnds in the market,
but I should say that 200 or 300 cover
the good ones. This, of course, is a

oughly mix well rotted cow manure
with it. Then place the top dirt on the
bed aain. If the bed is treated In this
manner, it will need but ltttle fertiliser
for some time. When ready to plant,
trim off any broken roots and place
bush in the bed, being careful that the1
roots arc spread out full length, and do
not come in contact with the manure.
Cover with a i'ouple of inches of fine
soil and press firmly. If the ground Is
dry, pour in a gallon or so of water,
then fill up the dirt around the plant
until it is slightly deeper than when in
the nursery.
How and When to Plant.
Let me say that planting is a very
Important part of rose growing. Plant
your bushes carefully at anyttime the
ground is In fit condition after Novem
ber 15 to the end of MarchTTirall ' the
best time for large plants, 2-iyear-olds,
but small, weak plants should be plant
ed in March.
Pruning is also an Important part of
rose culture. Each variety sbxmld be
pruned according to Its growth and na
ture, it is hard to give general dire
tlons to cover each case. Usfl.your
own judgment. First, cut away all
dead and unrip,; shoots; then thin out
the center of the plant, so the sir can
circuit" te and to make room for the new
growth. This will leave three or four
of the Well ripened -shoots of last
year's growth, as the case may bo.
Now. if the plant is oftjie slow or
moderate growing variety, and you de
sire exhibition blooms, cut back these
shoots to three or four 'eyes" from tlfs
base to the shoot started from, but If
you want a greater number of blooms,
and do not care for the high quality,
cut back to within four to six "eyes."
If the plant you wish to prune is of
vigorous growth, cut away the weak
and unripe shoots then thin out the
center for free circulation of air and to
make room for new growth, as before
stated. Then if you want exhibition
blooms, cut tho remaining three or four
shoots back, so as to leave four or five
"eyes" on each shoot. If you would
like a greater number of blooms with
out regard to their quality, cut back to
six or eight "eyes."
In shortening a shoot always cut to
an eye pointing away from the center
