in Art Is Increasing
As Winter Season DraqUs Near
During Exhibition at Corcoran Art Gallery There Will Be
Displayed Fine Collection of the Works of
the Sculptor ST. Gaudens.

With the coming Of the winter season,
the prospect of unusual interest in art
matters increases. Judging from the
plans row perfected and the plans now
under consideration the coming season
viii see greater activity and more con-
spicuous art events than have ever
been known in this city IN a single
season.
While IL is generally known that
during the exhibition of the paintings in
oil al the Corcoran Gallery OF Art next
December there will also be exhibited a
collection Of the work of America s
greatest sculptor, St Gaudens. it is not
commonly known that at the same time
the annual convention Of the American
Institute of Architects will be in session,
and that its sessions this year wiz be
of more than usual public interest and
especially TO the Capital OF the Nation.
This leading architectural society has
had for some time under consideration
the question OF proper control Of mat
tiers of the fine arts as related to cities.
In former meetings this subject has
been considered of such Importance that
the question has been referred to a
committee whose report will be received
at this coming meeting.
To Read Papers.
In addition to the report CT the COM
mittee, papers will be presented by able
members Of the institute bearing upon
this important question, such control Of
the fine arts as concern municipalities
as will secure the best possible art
qualities in public buildings. public
grounds, public statues, fountains, and
other art objects of a public character.
These papers will be OF compelling in
terest in this city where the awakening
on this subject has come but recently,
and seemingly too late to retrieve the
many errors easily recognized IN our
public squares. The papers viii be
valuable as source Of information
cleaned in some instances from Euro
pean cities where municipal art is con
troled by competent commissions, and
where the rule Of not how cheap, but
how good" is The test. rather than Inn

nfNINN DHINB6IS SSIUbtNSs
At the Keylor Grand theater, We'd
nesday,> February 10, Charles Dilling-
ham will offer the favorite comedian.
Frank Daniels, in his latest comic -ope-
"a success, 1.-THE Tattooed Man." This
popular piece has had a three months
run at the Criterion theater, New
York. The music, which is said to be
one of it's greatest charms, is by that
master of melody, Victor Herbert. The
libretto is by Harry B. Smith and A. N.
c. Fowler. For their locale the authors
have gone to the seldom-visited land
of Persia. In this picturesque envi-
ronment they have placed the please
ure-loving personality Of their leading
comic figure, travesty on Omar
Khayam, the role played by Mr.. Dam
iels, The production is said to be one
OF more than ordinary magnificence,
and the scenic artists are credited with
having captured the light and bios
SONY suggestion peculiar to the
Shah's land of perfumes, palms and
palaces. The opera is in two acts; the
first of which. shows garden adj
joining the palace Of the Shah and the
other represents Persian rose garden.
It is in this atmosphere Of suggested
poetry that the inimitable Daniels Gre
ates his fun. He appears as Omar
Khayan. Jr., a descendant of the sy-
rian tent maker. and pretends to be
a weather prophet and astrologer. On
the neck of the charlatan prognostica-
tor is a scaraebus from which he gets
his name OF THE Tattooed Man." The
story of the opera is said to be very
droll and right in line with the whim-
steal methods of making fun for
which the comedian is famed.

PORTLAND, Feb. Sit is said on
the authority Of an Oregon Short Line
| official in Portland that the construc-
| ton of the Snake river extension from
Huntington to Lewiston will be re-
| sumed about March /. The road is
graded to a point within 20 miles OF
the Cuprum copper camps in the
Seven Devils: district. The company let
out $500 men last October, at the be-
ginning of the money stringency, but
has kept men in charge of all con-
struction camps and machinery on the
ground.
Forty three miles of the line north
partly ironed. The company has been
distributing ties along the grade dur
ing the winter Steel rails and bridge
steel are constantly being delivered at
Huntington. to be sent to the front as
|
the new road.
! Water Grade TO- Portland.
This >. railroad, when completed
through to Lewiston, will complete a
water grade rail line from Pocatello to
Portland, and it is expected to shorten
by four or five hours the running time
| Of trains between this city and the
east. 1t has been reckoned that the
Snake river line will give a route be-
tween Boise and Spokane four hours
shorter than the present route via
Umatilla Junction. e. .r':
The Snake river road was initiated
by the Erie Trust company, Of Erie,
Pennsylvania, owners Of the Iron Dyke
mine, in the Seven Devils region. This
company, when its members realized
that It had gained possession some
years ago Of the greatest deposit of
pyritic copper ore in the world, de-
ttermined to secure rail transportation
Ieven if the trust company should have
to build the line. It secured rights of
way and franchises over government
lands, and completed a survey from
Huntington to Homestead, IS miles,
meantime carrying on an elaborate
development of the Iron Dyke mine.
J Reserve Work This Spring.
The railroad languished and a year
ago the trust company turned over its
rights and surveys to the Hartman
people, on a contract that the Oregon
Short Line would build the road. The
trust company handled the first $5,0oo.-
600 of construction bonds issued by
the. Short Line, thus insuring that the
road would be completed as far as the
Iron Dyke mine, at Homestead.
Construction work was pushed with
a large force Of men until the finan-
cial stringency. and then the contrac-
tors We're directed to lay off the men
for a few weeks but preserve all camps
intact. ready for early spring resump-
ton. It is practically a certainty that
the road will be completed as far as
Cuprum this year.
Ground for this belief is furnished
by the Erie Trust company, which is
making preparations for beginning OPP
Grafton Of the Iron Dyke mine, build
ling a sampling works and large GUS
toms smelter. The company has con-
tracted with Snake river mills, owned
by A. o. Huntley, Of Cuprum, for de-
livery of a million and a half feet of
lumber at the mine this year, and the
logs are now coming out of the
woods.
