V- DAILT CAPITAL JOVMAL, SALEM, OHGOH, SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1013. Py Tkr SOCIETY A smart affair was the tea yesterday given by Mrs. L. P. Griffith and Mrs, R. E. L. Stelner and MIsb Stelner, who made her formal entrance Into so ciety. Tlio beautiful day brought out a large number of friends to greet the hostesses and to welcome the debu tante. A brilliant array of flowers and foliage adorned the rooms with hanging baskets and Jars of big, red canial.lons and Bmllax, great clusters of Oregon grape and tall palms. These were used In living room and library where mantels were banked with the foliage and flowers. Over all was a maze of shamrock leaves suspended from the celling by invisible cord. Circling the library was a frieze of tho shamrocks with golden edges. In the dining room a motif of yellow and green made exquisite elabora tions. The beams were ornamented with the scheme of floating leaves and the mantel was centered with a candelabra holding yellow lighted can dles, flanked on either side with Ore gon grape and daffodils. Scattered about the room were vases of daffodilB with smllax, and shaded yellow can dles. The table was lovely with Its center a great bowl of double daffo dils. Soft tulle bows held In place with the flowers outlined the cloth. A mass of Oregon grape, Bmllax and maiden hair fern concealed the dome and supported a shower of double daf fodils on narrow yellow ribbons, and sprays of smllax. This fell to the cloth in a fringe completely circling the center piece. Yellow shaded can dles In crystal sticks lighted the table. MrB. William Brown and Mrs. Thom as Kay poured, relieved by Mrs. W. II. Eldrldgo and Mrs. W. A. Cusick. Four charming young women in the prettiest of frocks, served.

The monotony of a quiet week In society was broken yesterday when Mrs. Griffith, Mrs. Stelner and Miss Stelner gave a large tea. The same hostesses are entertaining this after' noon with cards. The celebration today of the open ing of a new bridge across the Wll lamette river has claimed attention of the business element In tjhls city, and It Is a very noticeable fact that such Jollifications have their effect upon society movements. Three days next month will be giv en over to an automobile show. Such affairs In the large cities call crowds of visitors and while the personal col umns may be lengthened, as ylet there is little In prospect for society do ings. Entertaining for a group of friends, Mrs. S. C. Dyer gave a delightfully informal luncheon Tuesday, the guests remaining for needle work In the afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. W. Melvlne Plimpton entertained with a supper for ten at their home, 544 Chemeketa street, af ter the Assembly party Tuesday night. Miss Ruth Wallace was hostess with her second luncheon on Friday of lost week, asking as guests MrB. John Jay Roberts, Mrs, Thomas A. Llvesley, Mrs. William Ball, Mrs. B. 0. Schuck Ing and Miss Elizabeth Lord. The Cherry City Assembly club en Joyed ' its last dancing party of the season Tuesday night in Armory hall. Elab&rate lattice work and hanging baskets overflowing with spring flow ers decorated the room. The Peer less orchestra furnished excellent music for the dances. Adding to the pleasant appearance of the opera house last Saturday night, when a large audience assem bled to enjoy the Young Men's Chris tian Association boneflt entertain ment, were the occupied proscenium boxes. With Mr. Paul Wallace and Mrs. R. S. Wallace were Mrs. Ilerren, Miss McColloch Miss Elizabeth Lord and Miss Wallace. Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Bishop and MrB. Joseph Albert and Robert Chauncey Bishop, Jr., were In the adjoining box. The others were taken by Mr. and Mrs. B. L, Steeves and family, Mr. an Mrs. Curtis Cross, Miss So phie CatUn and Mr. Frank Spears, Mr. and Mrs. Thonma Kay and family. A success in every way was the mln8trel-vaudevllle last Wednesday night at Grand opera house by Salem Young Men's Christian Association. The curtain rising disclosed a stage scheme In black and white; the enam eled chairs were occupied by a chorus of forty-five men, neatly clad In whit blouses and black trousers with black neckties of uniform sty.le. This was a pleasant foil for the gaudily ar rayed end men, who uniformed as raw recruits marched onto the stage dragging a wooden cannon, to the strains of "I Want to be a Soldier." This surprising piece of artillery was labeled, that the audience might not mistake it for an ambulance. The "Soldiers" Bong by the chorus opened the program, and their numbers throughout the entertainment were excellent The first solo, "The Turn key," was given by Ralph Jones and followed by "That Old Girl of Mine" as encore. Ray Chapler sang "A Gar land of Old Fashioned Roses"; Wil liam Mott, a medly of ragtime songs; E. J. Nale, "Don't Turn Your Old Girl Down"; Carl Gabrielson, "When the Mitnlght Choo-Choo Leaves for Alabam"; Henry Compton, "Bohem ia"; Charles Knowland, "When Uncle Joe Placed Ragtime on His Old Ban- Jo"; George Snyder, "Goodbye, Rose." Ray White sang "Down Where the Big Bananas Grow" and the black face sextette added their voices In chorus. Every soloist responded with encore demanded by the audience. The full chorus assisted in all of he songs, finishing the solo numbers with attractive ensemble work. Encores were demanded throughout the entire program. Carl Gabrlol son's melody and Alabama ragtime steps were rewarded with a shower boquet of Dinah's choicest vegetables. As interlocutor for the minstrel show, Doctor Epley could not have been excelled. The end men were Irresistibly fun ny In mannerisms and speech, with no display of the amateur and alert for clever, Impromptu remarks. The second part of the program opened with an exhibition of tumb ling and contortions by Physical Di rector Carter and Patchen, his assist ant. The difficult acrobatic feats gave a finished performance. Doctor Epley's monologue on old Willamette school days brought to light the pranks of prominent Snlem men In their callow days. Roy Chapler gave an Imitation of a barefooted country lad, ignorant of the niceties of city ways. In this sketch Doctor's Eployfs Instruction and advice fell on barren soil. Between first and second parts of the program, a trio of stringed Instru ments delighted the audience. Doctor Brown played the banjo, Charles Knowland the guitar, and Doctor Bloom the mandoline. The end men, who furnished tho jokes and jollifi cation which kept the audience In an uproar, were, at the left, Ray Chapler, Rufus White, Carl Gabrielson, Cyrus White; on the right, Charles Know- land, Ray White, William Mott and I. II. Compton. Fresh and breezy were the slaps given prominent citizens, to the great delight of the audlenpe Much of the success of the entertain' ment was due to Mr. Stanley Barton, who trained tho orchestra, directed the music, and who furnished the pi ano accompaniments. Doctor H. C. Epley and Mr. L, H. Compton are to bo congratulated upon the results of their combined efforts which, together with the hearty co operation of friends, made last Wed ncsday's entertainment the very best amateur performance of its kind given In Salem. The audience showed genuine ap preciation of the music, and merry en joyment of the fun. The best recital given by the Snra Brown Savage School of Expression delighted a large audience Wed nesday evening In St. Joseph's hall. Last season's presentations of the pupils made popular entertainments. Wednesday's was the first to be given this year. Programmed were the following numbers: Piano Solo, "The Elf Dance" .... A.

Emmallne Klein the Dutch maid. The scenes, In two acts, were laid In the Oakley home. The dialect conversa tions of the cook and maid' were ex tremely comical and perfectly given. The playette brought heartyl applause. Miss Erlxon's number on the pro gram was difficult In this she was compelled to sustain the most boist erous mirth, one of the hardest parts of elocution, and she accomplished It successfully. Miss Klein was excellent In her monologue. Miss Blanche Liston and Miss Rhea Wilson gave fine work In their widely different numbers. Miss Ethel Thomas is always good In whatever recitation Bhe gl"es. Miss Joanna Driscoll, Miss Edythe Rldeout and Miss Dora Patterson were warm ly applauded after their readings. Miss McGee and Miss Miller gave their solos beautifully, and Miss Alice Baker, a very young girl, playied her piano number well. A number of pupils are working for graduation, and this season's training has accomplished much toward their ambition. The class Is large and at each recital new names appear on the program. Tho Woman's Catholic Order of Foresters will present a St. Patrick's program next Monday night In St. Joseph's hall. There will be Irish songs and Irish readings and many other attractions appropriate for the day. The Woman's Auxiliary of St. Paul's church met yesterday after, noon In the guild room.

LIBERTY STREET BETWEEN 5TATE lug bit of news will be given later in this department. t Sebastian Burnett, tho young tenor who comes to America fpom Euro pean triumphs, dollghted an audience last Saturday night at Grand opera house, when he sang his programmed numbers and encores, and won Instant recognition as an artist of supremo attainments. To hear Burnett sing Is to hear the best In music. The tender quality of his high notes seems to "float," and to retain to a wonderful degree a richness of rare merit. His baritone notes are wonderfully full and of mellow timbre. Although singing In concert, hie dramatic abil ity was easily recognized. A more responsive audionce has seldom greeted nn artist In this city. ' With excellent enunciation ho sang In English, Gcrmnn, Italian ond French, and his selections were: ; Caro Mloben Giordan! nlsto Itltorno Harthelemy Three old French SongB (a) Menuet d'Kxaudet. (Ii) Bergeio legere. ! (c) Amente. Rerenndo Schubert Spirit. Mower Campbell-Tipton Goodbye Tosll In the Dark, In the Dew W. Combs Corc'ngrato S. Carilello , As encores he gave: "Drink to Me , Only Willi Thine Eyes," "Iwo Is a : Bubble," and "Tho Rosary." Tho program was carefully selected and splendidly sung. Following IiIh encores, "Good-bye," and "The Ros ary," Mr. Ilurnelt was given call af ter call. This young artist sings without ef ( fort and every noto Is a Joy to laiir. A brilliant future awaits him during his American tour.

POPULAR C- COURT PRICES ' too small for tho Bplendid concert. As accompanist, Gcrnldine Monte floro do Oourcy was all that could be desired, and her piano numbers wore given with great technique, a pow erful and sUU soft touch. For the rousing applause the artist showed her thanks with an encore from Chopin's works, most difficult and brilliant. Her programmed numliers were: Rlgoletto l'araphase .... Verdi-Liszt Arabesque on the "Blue Danube." It 1b quite possible that Mr. Bur nett may return to Salem later In the season for a second concert. His work Is very worthy of a full house. "The Strollers Quartette," selected to appear as fourth attraction of the Star Lyceum Coume, rtilled out a large audience last Saturday night, nnd delighted with vocal solos, duets and quailctB and with skotches and readings. The program was carried out with verve. Tho singing was good and tho closing number, a reminiscence of rebellion days, brought a hearty response. Tho Imitation of grand opera set to "Lohengrin" music and arranged with libretto of everyday conversa tionwas funny In the extreme.
