Olinto Lombardi, the big basso, who won so many admirers through his thrilling work as the High Priest in "Aida," will sing the role of Mephisto pheles. Tall, commanding, and with a big voice of the real basso quality. Lombardi should prove an ideal Me phisto, and wherever he has sung it critics have been completely won over. When Lombard! covers and bites his sword blade in rage before the sign of the Blessed Cross, or draws by Satanic magnetism Marguerite from the .threshold of the church or sends forth his exultant fiend's laughter at the outcome of the warden episode, he is Old Nick himself and none other." says one of them.

New Tork. April IB. (U. P.) Lives of thousands of persons were endan gered by the deadly third rail of the nira avenue elevated line here today when a train was derailed at Chatham Square.

ACOUSTICS MAIN IDEA TO BE ATTAINED IN ERECTING AUDITORIUM Thus Declares John Kendrick Bangs, Humorist, Concern ing Local Situation, With a municipal auditorium upper most In the Portland mind at the present time, John Kendrick Bangs, the humorist, who is in the city on a lec ture tour, cautions the people of Port land that the primary purpose of an auditorium is to furnish a place where an audience can hear. He says that any place that fails to live up to the name is a gross misnomer. "I am glad to hear that Portland Is to have a municipal auditorium." as serted Mr. Bangs this morning at the Benson, "for every American city of real civic pretensions should rejoice In such a possession. I hope, however, that when you do come to build it you will take pains to have It designed by somebody who knows his business. It is an unfortunate fact, and I speak with the authority of suffering and experience, that a vast number of the architects at work in this country to day know nothing of the science of acoustics, or at least if they do know something about It, "don't think it I worth while to demonstrate the fact. "The most perfect municipal hall In the United States is the municipal au ditorium at Houston, Texas. Who de signed the building I have not the slightest idea, but whoever he was he did what I consider to be the most perfect job of its kind on the American continent, and my advice to the citi zens of Portland, contemplating so worthy an addition to Portland's civic resources, would be that they get into communication with the Houston au thorities and find out just who de signed the Houston auditorium, and if possible get hold of the Houston plans and reproduce them as nearly as possible here."
