PORTLAND WILL OFFER
JAPANESE GRAND OPERA

For the first time in the history Of
music in Portland, a new Japanese
grand opera is to be presented there.
This is the Maseagni three-act opera,
Iris" which aside from Puccinis'
Madame Butterfly" is practically
the only real Japanese grand opera in
existence. OF lighter operas such as
'"The Mikado," ETC., there are many
and these have been heard in Portland
frequently. But on Tuesday after
noon, March 6, at the Eleventh street
playhouse, a genuine novelty will be
offered by the Boston-National Grand
Opera Company, and as an added fea-
ture Madame Tamaki Miura, the Japan
ese prima donna, will appear as Iris.
The idea of "lris," according to
Mascagni, is the Immortality of inno-
cence. Although Iris finds herself in
Geisha house, she remains spotless
and pure and although she is offered
for sale in the market place she UNDER
goes this trial in the same spirit of in
nocence. II is an allegory, of course,
and like the theme of Madame But
terfly, it reveals many of the chacter-
istics of japanese.
Other operas of the two-day season
in Portland will be Aida" Monday
evening, March S, and Faust Tues
day evening March 6. The principal
artists to be heard include Giovanni
Zenatello, Riccardo Martin, Maggie
Teyte, Tamaki Miura, Luisa Villano,
George Baklanoff, Jose Mardones.
Thomas Chalmers, Virgilio Lazzari,
Tovia Kittay, Graham Mari, Romeo
Boscacci and many others. There will
be chorus of 80 voices and the famous
Boston Opera House symphony orches-
ira, under the direction of Roberto
Morazoni and Fulgenxio Guerrieri.
Mail orders for the entire season and
for single performances are now being
received by W. T. Pangle, at the Elev-
eth street playhouse. The public sale
Of seats begins Monday, Feb 26

this music, if you don't shake your
feet, we will have the company physi-
clan look after you, because there is
really something wrong. This wonder
full aggregation consists of piano,
drums violin, banjo and French horn,
along with the piccolo and xylophones.

LEGISLATURE Adopts Salary Bill

A bill, providing that the salaries of
Hood River county officers conform to
the sums specified in an initiative bill
voted in by citizens of the county in
1914, was introduced in the senate by
Senator Wilbur and passed. But when
the bill reached the house last Satur-
day it was killed. According to su-
preme court decision a county init.
ative salary bill, to be operative, must
first have legislative sanction. There
fore, the legislatures action would
have left in effect the original salary
bill, which provided the sum of 81, 800
per year for sheriff and clerk and
81, 200 for assessor.
Monday the matter was reconsidered
and a compromise bill, giving the
sheriff and clerk 81, 500 and the assessor
the sum of 81, 100, was adopted.

st. Marks Improvement Likely

An anonymous donor has offered to
the st. Marks Episcopal church the
sum of $500, provided the vestrymen
raise like sum, to be used in improv-

campaign to secure by subscription
the additional $500, and $lO0 has al

numerous pines that are dying in the
Heights section of this city 10 be

recently been so destructive to pines
Of eastern Oregon national forests.
"A dozen trees are Dead" says Mr..
Egington, land others show signs of
the working of some pest. their
branches having withered. Local peo-
pie should take some precaution to pre-
vent a spread of the disease, which,
if it is allowed to go unfought, will
kill all of the beautiful pines in the

of the advisory commission created to
aid the Council of National Defense,
undertook their further development
when, in Washington, he was made
chairman of the committee on trans
portation and communication.
1t was w. G. Besler, president of the
Central Railroad of New Jersey and
member of the executive committee of
the American Railway association,
who proposed turning the undertaking
over to the association, Said he:
1T is the only machinery which eX-
lists in this country for co-ordinating
and handling the various phases of this
problem, the only piece Of machinery
which can make itself felt throughout
the country, the only organization
whose voice will be heard and obeyed.
Through it the situation in the far
be controlled AS easily and as readily
as can that of the east. Through it We
can be assured that there will be no
conflict of motives or Of efforts.
ut IL the obvious solution Of the
problem" continued Mr.. Besler. "There
will be tremendous lot of detail
work to be done, and / don't know
how else we could do 1t. l have never
had any faith in associations Of citi-
zens, however patriotic and energetic,
when they undertake work of which
they have no knowledge. This work Is
work that needs the greatest planning
by expert traffic men. Every move must
be thought out In detail, and there is
none to do 1t so well as the association.
For instance l have friends who
have told OF seeing in Germany huge
fan shaped stretches of track just with
In the German border. No trains We're
ON them. No factories were near. They
lay In waste stretches of country or
country that had been leveled to let
these masses of track lie in plain.
They were the termini by aid of which
Germany has been enabled to move
great masses of troops speedily and
without confusion.
"These stretches of track were laid
at places which the German board of
strategy has conceived to be turning
points in the event of the war that
came. Now our military experts will
discover just such strategic points for
the concentration of troops without
doubt and will demand the installation
there OF these fan shaped termini
There is no trouble moving freight OIL
