Florence Reed's Versatility
MISs Florence need, who Is starred In
"The Yellow Ticket." which begins Its
third week at the Garrlck next Monday,
made her first hit by playing In an In
ebriate sceno In "Seven Days."
"Then what happened," said Mls Reed,
"every manager having a play with an In
ebriate part came to me with an offer.
I suppose I played tho part convincingly,
but I certainly did not want to become
Identified with roles of tipsy ladles. Do
you blame me? So I declined all offers
and decided to take roles as different as
possible.''
Miss Reed then played the siren, Ilona,
In "Tho Typhoon," with Walker White
side, and scored a success Then, again.
uniy Hucn gnaraciers wcro onered the
actress, and sho began to despair of an
opportunity to play anything else.
When Michael Morton suggested to A.
II. Woods that he engage Miss Hrd for
tho rolo of the persecuted Jewish maiden
In "Tho Yellow Ticket," tho manager
demurred.
"Miss Reed can't play anything with
neart stun- in it," ne insisted. But, not
withstanding his objection, she was se
lected to create Marya, and mndo tho
greatest hit of her career.
"Managers ore guilty of tho grossest
Injustice when they Insist upon engaging
types for parts," said Miss Hoed. "If Mr.
Morton, the nuthor, had not stuck to his
determination to havo mo in 'his play,
managers would doubtless havo continued
to Identify mo with etago ndventuresses
for tho remainder of my life. It Is nn
absurd Idea that an actor or actress must
play only one kind of part. It Is only In
America that this idea obtnlns. In Ger
many, for example, nn actor Is not quali
fied to appear In any of tho theatres sub
sidized by tho Government, or. In fact, In
any first-class company, until ho has
demonstrated his versatility In an nblllty
to play Shakespearean parts of widely
varying type.
"In that connection I am reminded of
the actor who was cast for tho part of
an Indian with a wooden leg. He made
a great hit In the part and went about
declaring sorrowfully that ho was ruined
professionally, for that ho would never
again bo given an engagement until somo
author wrote another piny In which there
was the character of an Indian with a
wooden leg."
Song and Concert
Tho Friday afternoon concert of the
Philadelphia" Orchestra yesterday was
something In tho nature of a pleasant
matlnoe entertainment, as any program
Including two numbers of Mozart, thf
Schubert oxecrpts from "Rosamundo" and
modern Russian songs must needs be.
Tho tempestuous fourth symphony of
Tschalkowsky stood among theso as a
baibarlc giant. It was the only part
which called upon the orchestra for sus
tained emotion and upon the audience for
pqually sustained attention. With Mr.
Stokowskl lending, it is to be said, the
symphony received both.
Alma Gluck, tho assisting artist, sang
Blondlna's aria from Mozart's "Entfuch
rung aus dem Sorall" with somo hesita
tion In finding her tones nnd n lather
frail voice above her normal register.
It was only In tho three Russian songs
that the singer found herself. In the
aria and In the "Shepherd Lehl" the lilt
ing happiness of her voice was an endless
delight, and tho rich tenderness of the
"Chant Hindou" was something of n reve
lation of her emotional powers. Mmo.
Gluck, Incidentally, sang In four lan
guages, tho "Peasant Song" of Rachma
ninoff, with Its memories of tho "Volga
Boatsong." being miner In Tolstoi's origi
nal. Tho audience responded quickly to
the freshness of her voice and the ease
of expression which ran a rather wide
range In tho afternoon. But It wns not
an unusual day for the singer. For those
who had heard her before, and even for
those who had grown accustomed to her
golden notes on the phonograph, she suf
fered, but only In comparison with her
self. With tho orchestra Mr. Stokowskl was
presented with a delicate problem In
shades of expression. The "Figaro" over
ture Is too merry to be mellow In the
fashion of Mozart's chamber music, and
Mr. Stokowskl wisely played It In Its
buoyant fashion. Schubert was more
glamourous, and In tho entr-acto tho or
chestra sang his romantic melancholy
with flno bympathy nnd lino restraint.
The ballet music Is of tho sort which
should be played from tho flnger-tlps, be
cause "expression" can ruin It. In this
Mr. Stokowskt's feeling was more subtle
than that of his men.
Yet the chief labor of the afternoon and
the chief triumph was the symphony.
With a tliomo unmclodlous In Itself,
Tschalkowsky built an extraordinary
melodious structure, a little overladen
with confused sentiments, a little chaotic,
and at moments disturbing, for tho first
movement; and it was there and In the
last movement, when the theme returns,
that the orchestra was at Ito best. More
than the difficulty of accenting melodies
and themes, Mr. Stokowskl had the task
of accenting emotions. In that he tri
umphed. Philadelphia Orchestra Program
For the third pair of concerts Mr. Sto
kowskl announce? a program and a so
lolrt of marked Interest the program be
cause of Its revival of Anton Bruckner's
Fourth Symphonv. unheard here for 11
years, and the violinist. Frank Olttelson.
a Phlladclphlan, for reasons of local ar
tistic pride.
Mr. GIttelson was fortunate In his
choice of parents, both musical and both
determined not to spoil a child prodigy
by forcing his musical education. Al
though at the age of 4 he Indicated pro
nounced abilities and the possession of a
perfect ear, Mr. OltteUon received no
Instruction until he was 8 years old After
stud Ins with Paul' Meyer. Mr. GIttel
son nas placed In charge of Daniel
Vlsanska, of New York, and there laid
a foundation which Carl Flescli later de
clared was above criticism. For a time
Mr. GIttelson was Flesch'a only pupil.
He made his debut In January. 1013. In
Berlin and was received with unanimous
approval. By the autumn of that year
the young violinist was already In de
mend for concerts, and since that time
he has played. In the great musical cen-

Tho "Romantic" symphony. In G flat

begin the program was composed by
Bruckner after he came under tho pro
nounced lnlluence of Richard Wagner, nnd
Is, In fact, the first In which Bruckner
shows himself as tho cnnmplon of the

phonies have all received partisan criti

Mr. Damrosch's Orchestra
Difficulties of preserving artistic neu
trality wre experienced by two New
York leaders. Mr. Stransky nnd Mr.
Damrosch, who comes to the Academy
of Music Mondas" nlcht. havo both found
It necessary to address their orchestras
In diplomatic pleadings for harmony. The
response in both enscs seems to havo

WHO OWNS THE WATER
IN BRANDYWINE CREEK?
Wilmington May Be Involved in Ex
pensive Suit to Find Out.
WILMINGTON, Del . Oct. 21. Who
owns the water In the Brandywlne? This
Is the question which a number of city
officials, Including a special committee of
City Council, the Water Commission nnd
City Solicitor Daniel O. Hastings, will
endeavor to solves
The city may bo Involved In an ex
pensive lawsuit befoio the matter is
finally settled. Tho city owns certain
water rights, bjit so docs the Joseph
Bancroft & Sons Company, textile manu
facturers, and other concerns. Tho city
draws its drinking water supply from tho
stream and Just at present the supply
of water Is low.
Tho city admits that tho Bancroft Com
pany has the right to use water, but
some of tho officials hold that under tho
riparian laws tho company must put the
water back Into the stream, that It can
not dlveit tho water. It Is declared that
tho company Is diverting tho water and
using It to supply n village whlrh It owns
and where Its employes live Tho com
pany maintains that Its agreement with
tho Street and Sower Department ex
pressly provides that It shall havo au
thority to divert one-half of the water
of the stieam
The other city departments say the
Street and Sewer Department had no
right to make such nn agreement, and
thnt the city is not bound by It. The
City Solicitor Is inclined to Indorse this
opinion.
If tho agreement does not hold, tho
Bancroft Compnnv will be compelled to
buy water from the city, and this would
add a large amount of revenue.
