DR. TERRELL GAVE
 A FINE LECTURE

pr. Charles Clifton Fcrrells lecture on "Goethe as Lyric Poet" delivered at Temple Emanuel last night under the joint auspices of the order of B Mai B Rith and the Council of Jewish Women, was attended by a large and discriminating audience. Certain of Goethe 5 poems were admirably illustrated by music and all together the entertainment was one of the most delightful ever given at the temple.
 Rabbi Newfield opened the exercises with short but happy address in which he spoke of the marked advance in the literary taste of Birmingham. He paid a hearty tribute to the Board of Edu- cation and the teachers of the public schools for the broadening work they were doing in developing an atmosphere of culture. Goethe and his great drama Faust" had been studied in the High school and now Goethe was to be dis cussed, he said, not as a pholisopoher or as a dramatist but as poet.
 Following Dr. Newfeld Mrs. Lenk read two of Goethe's shorter poems which Mrs. Bloch Illustrated in tone by playing  Dowell which these poems had inspired.
 Dr. Ferrells lecture was in the nature of an informal talk about Goethe. He appraised the subject of his discourse as one of the greatest men of letters the world had ever known. Being a German scholar, pr. Terrell had read Goethe ill the original. and severah poems which he recited in English he read also in German, because of the singular richness and strength of Goethes mother tongue. pr. Terrell told with delicate feeling of Goethe's loves, especially his love for Frederika. Goethe, he said, gave ex- pression to his own experience in poetry, and this experience of his was common to men of all countries and all times. Goethe was an objective poet from the very fact that his ow nemotion, drawn from actual experience were always man ifest in his verses.
 Among the many poems which Dr. Fer rell recited by way of illustration were these:
 ERWIN AND ELMIRE.
 remember, love, with sadness
 When to win a smile from you
 Every morn brought with gladness
 Roses wet with morning dew.
 Now no more your charms displaying
 Flowers my love refused to wearl
 Roses--ah, so soon decaying--
 Fade and die! for I despair.
 WANDERERS NIGHT SONG.
 Ger all the hill-tops
 Is quiet now,
 In all the tree-tops
 Hearest thou
 Hardly breath;
 The birds are asleep in the trees,
 Wait; soon like these
 Thou too shalt rest.
 pr. Terrell had visited many of the scenes made famous by the great poet.
 The lecture was regarded by those who heard it as not only of uncommon literary interest but wonderfully il- luminating.
 Toward the close of the lecture Dr. Terrell stopped long enough for Mrs. Fies to sing Listz's musical setting to Goethe's 'Mignon," and after the close of the lecture MT. Shaddick sang one of Schuberts songs to the words of Goethe. Mrs. Gussen arranged the musical programme and accompanied the singers.

With returns in covering fully
80 per cent of the vote cast on

has a majority in the state Of

will cut this majority down con-
siderably and the amendment, if
it has carried. win have a small
majority. possibly not more
than 1000.
The state at large. outside Of
Multnomah County. has given a
substantial vote against the
amendment. but Multnomah's
majority for it Of 5000 seems to
have turned back the tide.
The good roads amendment
seems to have carried b. 3 sub

River fish bill carried and the
bill providing a method for re-
forming county hanndries. It is
indicated as failed.

according to late returns. by in.
wards of 5000. Tliis figure mag
be greatly increased by the final
totals, but estimates are now
based on the theory that the un-
reported precincts. which are in

the heavy lead existing against
