her gowns, that she looks simmer than
she actually is, and nothing more con-
clusiyely proves the cut of a woman s
dress to be perfect, than the style that
gives her figure trim appearance.

This noted artist says: 81 love Am
erican songs, as love this wonderful
country; these songs are full Of fresh
ness and Enthusiasm of youth, which
permeates the whole American atmos-

first of all Nevin's beautiful "Ro-
sary," which / never tire Of singing;
Chadwick's 'Danza," with its exhilar-
ating dance rhythm, and that compos.
ler's new song, especially written for
me, When / Am Dead Chadwick is
wonderful and this last song is his mas
terpiece. l am very fond of Margaret
Ruthven Lang's 'Mavourneen, Arthur
Foote'S Irish Love Song Mary Tur-
ner's Salter's grandly dramatic Cry of
Rachel and mny others of equal ar
tistic worth. There is a long list of
good things, from which to choose, for
the artist who would sing in English to
English speaking audiences; I do not be
lieve in singing translations Of foreign
songs. With "The Rosary" in my
ears, | cannot but wonder how far its
composer would have gone hail not his
life been so prematurely cut off. He is
a representative of the youthful genius
of this country, the future of which
stretches before the musical world with
infinite possibilities.

Continued from Saturday,

There are many cities in America
where Madam Schumann- Heink feels
perfectly at home, and it seems right
that she should feel so, since she is be-
loved by the American people, for her
own sake; but, there are towns in Ger
many, where the name Of Schumann-
Heink is power, and Beyreuth is one
Of them. II has been said by musical
reviewers of German newspapers and
magazines, that no singer of the gener-
alton has greater influence with the
widow and son Of the great composer.
That accounts for the number of young
singers whom Madam Schumann-H Heink
has introduced at the Festspielhous and
through her kindly offices have had
their chance to sing in this hallowed
spot. Despite her German training,
the name, when the eontralto was bill
ed to sing at the last Beyreuth festival
in nineteen-twelve, her name on the
poster read: "Madam Schumann- -Heink,
New York" This convinces every one
that Schumann-HeinlS' s Americanism is
genuine.

Roscoe Fawcctt wabbled frightfully
in his account, Sunday morning, of the
willamette Oregon football game. He
was full of excuses for the defeated
blOwhards and burned up the wires in
an effort to let them down easy. To-
day Fawcett practically admits that
Oregon was outplayed and Is inferior
to willamette. Further he intimates
Washington will also defeat Oregon.

A celebrate writer n fashion has
declared that the best dressed woman is
she "who is unconscious of her
clothes. " Observing persons, who have
studied Madam Schumann-H Heink, on
and off the state, know that she belongs
in the category Of well-dressed, never
over'dressed, and for the best reason
as the writer of fashion has decreed, be.
cause she is absolutely oblivious of
clothes. The famous contralto favors
rich fabrics and they belong to wo.
man Of regal queenly style The tints
which she wears are usually neutral
and that is another indication Of good
taste. Mauve, cream, silver and very
often shimmering white, appear to be
her favorite colors. The designs which
she adopts are never extreme and al
ways one finds the lines graceful, so

Defeated University Bunch Trying
Hard to Find an Excuse for Losing
Game to Salem.
LYING STORY THAT ONLY
SECOND TEAM WAS USED
Teams Had an Even Break and Only
Reason Willamette Won Was Be
cause Team Was Best.

Willamette university students are
becoming very "peeved'' over some Of
the reports that are being circulated
about the game between Willamette
university and Oregon last Saturday.
The sporting editors Of the Eugene
and Portland papers have been present
ing different pleas with which to ex-
cuse the state university huslzies for
allowing the Salemites TO defeat them.
All the papers wall about the muddy
field, and how it deferred Oregon $
progress. Everyone admits that the
field was very muddy, and, that, be-
ing slippery, it naturally demanded
old.style football, but which team
should have had the advantage on
muddy, slippery fieldi Surely not the
lightest one, and, since line smashing
and end runs constituted the mainstay
Of both teams advance, should Will
lamette, outweighed Is pounds to the
man, not have had very decided dis
advantagef
But, being outweighed, and with the
field every bit as soggy as any one
has given it credit for being, william.
ette not only held these beefy cham
pions for downs time and again, but
their lighter linemen opened holes
through this stone wall Of beef, and
Willamctte's midgets smashed through
this monster line for 8, 10 and 12
yards.

COSTLY FIRE VISITS
 TREADWELL MINE

DOUGLAS. Oct. 1.-The Treadwel mine shaft house was destroyed by fire at 8 o'clock this morning. It has not yet been determined how the fire originated but it is believed to have been caused by crossed electric wires. The loss although not computed will amount to several thousands of dol lars.
 The fire was first discovered by the deck officer of the steamer Georgia which was passing down the channel. The Georgia sounded several loud alarm blasts which were heard in Treadweil and the Treadwell depart uent quickly responded The fire lad dies were soon at the scene and worked hard but the flames had gained too much headway and the fire was not extinguished until after the entire shaft house was destroyed All that remains this morning is the frame work
 The wind, fortunately. was blowing from the waterfront. Had it come from the opposite direction the fire might have taken a considerable part of Treadwell.
