mistaken by the wife for "the other

all ends well.
Kalherino Kaelred, as tho wife. Is far
more attractive than she was In "The

melodramatic.
Julian JYKstranse. erstwhile screen

OPERATIC SOCIETY SINGS
DE KOVEK'S "ROBIN HOOD"
Excellent Performance at tha Metro
politan Repeated Tonight
A light opera, which hns, been sung
10,000 times, was sung ngaln last night at
the Metropolitan. Tpo work Is "Robin
Hood," and tho performance was by tho
Philadelphia Operatic Society, an organi
zation which continues to put on amateur
opera on quite the grandest scalo year
after year. A few faults can bo found In
the production, but the total effect wns one
of bewildering excellence.
The latter applies In full forco to the
cho'rus, and tnlsis as It should be, for no
amateur organization can afford to ex
ploit a few members nt tlie expense of
its body of workers. In grouping, in cos
tuming. In singing, the nameless chorus
was far beyond the amateur standard,
preserving tho virtues of nonprofessional
Ism while avoiding Its faults. The open
ing of the second act. In Hhetwood For
est; was a fine example. Under the baton
of Mr, Wassilt Leps, and. in the third
act, under that of the composer himself,
tho cues were swiftly and Intelligently
taken up. The voices were full nnd well
sustained and totally pleasurable.
"Robin Hood" will bo performed again
tonight, nnd It la very possible that the
voices of tho principals will be better
heard then. Last nlgllt almost all were
a bit overmodest, with a tendency to
weakness. Deep In the auditorium they
sounded pale, uncertain. But the Operatic
Society has always developed voices of
more beauty than power, excellently
trained in expression If lacking in volume.
Mario Stone Langston, Knthryn McGln
ley, Mario Loughney, Lottie Loeben, John
W, Noble, Horace R. Hood, Hermann J.
Bub, Frank M. Conly and J. W. Clegg
were tho principal slngera Charles J.
Shuttleworth ns Friar Tuck was excel
lent comedy. Louise Segal and Anna Lar
kin were tho sole dancers.
Qf deliberate mistakes there wero but
two In the production. One was the over
generous repetition of arias and concerted
numbers, which dragged the piece. The
second was overplayed comedy, ns that
of the drunken sheriff. In attempting to
rival professionals, the Operatic Society
doea not need to imitate all the. fa'rilts.
Finally, It must bo noted that no dramatic
organization would at present care or
dare to put on a piece with so llttlo at
tention to the mounting as was bestowed
lost night
Certain ceremonies were gone through
after the1 second act grateful acknowl
edgments of favors and honors. They
were well deserved. The whole perform
ance, however, was a grateful thing to
bear and see. Q. y, a.

A somewhat unfavorable opinion of the
late Richard Harding Davis occurs In
Prof. Fred Lewis Pnttco's "A History of
American Literature Since 1870." Profes
sor Patteo considers Davis the most typi
cal figure In our literature of the clghtecn
nlnotles, and says that to him literature
was " a thing to be dashed off with facil
ity, to bo read with excitement nnd to be
thrown asldo." Of Davis nnd his work
In general Professor Patteo observes: "He
Js a maker of extravuganas, of Zenda
romances, of preposterous combinations
like 'A Soldier of Fortune,' which Is truo
neither to human nature nor to any pos
sibility of terrestrial geography; he Is a
special correspondent with facile pen who
tells nothing new and nothing authorita
tive a man of tho mere today, nnd with
the mere today ho will be forgotten. He
Is tho typo of a whole school, n school,
Indiad, that bids fair to exert enormous
Influence upon the literature, especially
upon tho fiction, of the period that Is to
come."

Tho value of tho reprint, nldo from
tho prlmnry Importance of the superb
poetry, lies In the critical npparntus. This
consists of a biographical sketch and
notes by Michael A Kelly, C. S. Sp., nnd
nn introduction by KntherlnejBregy.
Tho Introduction nnalyzes the mind and
moods of Francis Thompson admirably,
pointing out that not merely is "Tho
Hound of Heaven" a great ode, ns Cov
entry Patmorc said, but nlso n great and
complete autobiography. Thompson once
wrote, "To be the poet of tho return to
nature Is somcuhnt; but I would rather
be tho poet of tho return to God." "The
Hound of Heaven" Is by way of being a
consummation and fulfilment, achieving
his aspiration.
Father Kelly has written an excellent
appreciation and appraisal of the poet
and provided n concise sketch of tho cb
scntlnl facts In his career. His notes nro
full, fair and Illuminating. The book Is
admirably annotnted for secondary school
and collegiate use.
