LET Us HAVE AN OPERA HOUSE.

$1,000
An agent Of the Commercial Ali.
ance Life Insurance Company Of New
York City is il town who proposes, if
the citizens will take out suffice mt
amount Of insurance to make 1t an
object, to induce his company to con.
struct in this city an opera house
which will have seating capacity OF
at least 500. The gentleman referred
to is meeting with good success in bis
canvass, although he has been at it
but day or SO, and it is quite likely
that within day or two the required
amount will DO obtained.
This and similar propositions which
have resulted in the magLi6ce mt
blocks built by some OF the oldest IN
surance companies in the leading
cities Of the country, is . scheme
which has been formulated in order to
silence the ohjectors who not infre.
quensly refuse to insure because to
do 80 would be to send money out of
the country.
BY building local structures which
cost several times the amount OF the
possible receipts from premiums the
assured have at hand tangible evidence
Of the solvenoy Of their company, and
the premium money is kept at home.
There is no doubt that an opera
house is needed here; that many
excellent entertainments Of which We
are now deprived would be brought
within our reach If we had one. And
We believe that this is the very easiest
way in which we could get one.
Let the necessary amount be made
up without delay, and our opera house
secured for ne xt summer.

A Musical Treat.

A little impromptu gathering was
had at the hall over Mr.. .Nichelsen's g
store last evening which proved very
enjoyable to those who were present.
Mr.. Charles +. Riggs, the manager of
the Abbie Darlington grand opera COM
pany, had some friends in the city and
in order to give them treat decided to
give them an informal musicale and
with the able assistance of Mrs.
Dexter succeeded in doing SO. Mr..
Riggs is cornetist that ranks with
Lberatta and other renowned players
and in the east among professionals he
is said to excel the famous Italian leader
in the quality and excellence of his play
ing. At any rate Mr.. Riggs gave those
played. The first piece ON the pro-
gramme was the old irish air of
'Savourneen Dheelish,'' which was so
well executed that an encore was de-
manded which was cheerfully given.
Mrs. Dexter gave a remarkable well ex-
ecuted piano solo next and then
'fRobin Adair'' was played by, Mr.
Riggs and his fair accompanist. Mrs.
Mabel Riggs conferred another treat by
the recitation of ''Lasca' and as an en-
core gave Bert Harris New York Letter
| from the Belle of the Season." Mrs. Riggs
is a fine elecutionist and gave both reci-
tations with much force and dramatic
energy. She has sweet, well cultivated
and modulated voice and her efforts to
/ please were well received. Mrs. B. S.
Huntington followed in a charming
rendition of tSweet Alice, Ben Bolt,''
sung in her pleasantest manner and best
voice. Many compliments were bestowed
on Mrs. Huntington and both Mr. and
Mrs. Riggs said that they had not
listened to SO charming voice for long
time. Her singing was In exquisite taste
and was highly appreciated. The Dalles
is fortunate in having a lady of her rare
abilities as one of its residents. ''Annie
Laurie was the closing cornet solo bv
Mr.. Riggs, and he and his charming
wife will be long remembered for the
pleasant manner in which they, entered
some of our appreciative citizens
last evening. Mrs. Dexter's playing
was very fine, taking as. she did Mr..
Riggs difficult music and playing it at
sight, thing that no one but the best
of musicians are competent to do.

Let us Experiment.

We have received another commuica-
tion from Mr.. R. H. Thompson of Port
land on the single-tax question. Mr..
Thompson seems to think that all you
have to do to build up the vacant lots of
the city is to pile up the taxes on them,
because the owners in that case could
not afford to allow them to remain
vacant. The CHRoN1cLB will use its
powerful influence to nave Mr.. Thomp-
son appointed city assessor of The Dalles
if he will promise to SO assess the vacant
lots of the garrison property or West
Dalles that the owners shall be com
PEELED to improve them. Rev.. O. D.
Taylor is just now absent in the east,
but we believe he would pay good stiff
premium to have the experiment tried
on North Dalles, but if not, Mr.. Thomp-
son could try the experiment on Mr..
Taylor, himself, and we, over this way,
will look on with wonder and admira-
ton.
