the superb contralto of the Metropolitan
Opera Company. It Is a late day to eulo
gize this great artist's brilliant attributes.
Her Brucnnhllde Is epic, soul-ttlrrlng. In
formed to the full with the vivid majesty of
northern folk lore and Its elemental poetry.
Her Amnerls Is passionate, languorously ori
ental, arrcstlngly dramatic Last season
on a hurry call she replaced Hernldlne Far
rar In the title role of "Carmen," contrib
uting a finely effective portrait to Bizet's
Immortal "opera cornlque." With Louise
Homer, Mme. Mntzenauer unquestionably
ranks with the most gifted contraltos of the
modern lyrlco-dramatlc stage. Marie Doln.i
was entitled to entrance In that category,
but "envious and calumlnatlng time" has
begun to make Its Impress on her eloquent
vc:al eaulpment.
Mme. Matzennuer's offerings next week
will be "Titus," "Pnrto of Mozart" and
two songs by lllchartl Strains, "Oesange

Manv pages from the score of "The Fire

however, until 1908. when ho produced a
"Scherae Fantasllque." suggested by Maet

vivid piece entitled "Fireworks," written for
the marriage of Hlmsky-Kersakow s daugh

marked Individuality. In 1910 he was com

score of "The Fire Bird' on n scenario by

Immediate success at Paris In the name

ten almost exclusively for the stage, uiii'
his works were produced In Paris by De
Dlaghllev's company. '
The story of "The Fire ISIrd," written by
1 Foklne, Is poetic and fantastic and forms
a stimulating basis for musical inventive
ness. The tale of the Imprisoned Prince,
first dazzled, then moved to pity by the
fairy bird, obtaining n magic feather as a
reward for sparing her life, startled by the
thirteen Princesses, falling in love with one
at first sight, engaging the services f the
fairy bird to neutralize the malign powers
of the sinister Kastchef, discovering the
.secret of his Immortality and freeing
through his death his hnole's victims mid
ig bringing happiness to all nnd winning both
, -.'l. " bride and a kingdom. Is surely calculated
to awaken the creative Imagination of a
composer. In his music Strawlnsky has
produced a polished work of exquisite sen

WHY MISS ANGLIN
LEFT MANSFIELD
Great Actor's AmuslnR "Bulletin" on
This Theme Recalled by Little
Theatre Star
Llko all players who ever appeared with
America's greatest actor of the lale nine
teenth nnd early twentieth century, Mar
garet Anglln has her Mansfield anecdote.
"Mr. Mansfield's company wbb rehearsing
Tho First Violin' when 1 called nt tho
theatre to see him," said tho star of "Lone
ly Soldiers," at tho Little Theatre, tho other
day. "The play was actually under way
nnd the actors were being worked nnd over
worked relentlessly. I entered tho audi
torium nnd remained In the dark back of
tho last row. Everything about mo wna
Inky black. Suddenly up the aisle camo
tho flguro of Mr. Mansfield, and putting his
nrm about me ho exclnlmed: 'Well, darling,
do you think that was good?' I am sure,
my embarrassment nnd amazement were"
no greater than his when ho discovered I
was a total stranger Instead ofthls wife,
whom ho hnd left standing there a few
minutes before."
There was the usual talk about 111 treat
ment when Miss Anglln left Mr. Mansfield's
company, nnd It prompted him to write tho
following letter to the newspapers- "My
attention has been called to the continual
references to Miss Anglln, nnd tho usual
Innuendoes as to why she severed her con
nection with my company. Miss Anglln,
who played Itoxano In 'Cyrano de Bergenia'
ery charmingly. Immediately after her
marked success In tho role received an offer
of twice tho salary I had contracted to
pay for her services, and Miss Anglln ac
cepted the offer.
"I am sorry tho facts arc so simple nnd
unlntorestlng, really almost sordid, hut 'tis
true. It would have been more exciting and
no doubt more agreeable to have been nble
to relito how tho poor crcnturo was taken
by the hair nnd drugged about the stage,
or how she was after a stormy rehearsal
kidnapped and confined In u dark room,
where the monster squirted Ink at her
through tho keyhole punctually evory fifteen
minutes, or how sho wns sandwiched be
tween two boards (like the lady In Tolstoi's
rustic tragedy) while the beast sat upon
her nnd read his prayerbook. and then
how she escaped, but ever after refused to
reveal the mystery of her suffering for
fear of the vengeance of the bloodthirsty
tyrant."

Season
Tho Fairbanks twln. Madeline and Mar

Theatre Monday, arc to shine next season
ns drimatlc stars. They are tn be pre
sented by Floienz Zlegfeld In a farce com
edy entitled "The Gold-Dust Twins." The
piece Is being written by Lou Houseman.
a noted Chicago Journnllst. The profes

has been ns remarkable us It Is deiered.
They have been appearing before the public
less thin four years, part of the time In
Thanhouser screen plays. Uirt season they
won favor in "The Century Olrl" at the
Century Theatre, New York.
Before the footlights their most artistic
performances were as the winsome little
handmaidens of "Snowwhite" In Jesse lira-
ham White's charming fair play of tnai
name. It w is then apparent that their his.
trlonlc ability was In nowlte secondary to
their comeliness.

'JUDY'
Receives JIany Letters So Addressed
Because of Her "Daddy Long

The postman who delivered letters to
the George M. Cohan Theatre In New
York during the long run of "Come Out of

over letters Intended for Huth Chatterton.
the charming little ftar of the play
which were not nddrcsssd to that wlnome
young actress. Hut one day Miss Chatter
ton herself explained to him who Judy
Abbott was.
In every mall there were one or more
letters either for Just "Judy" or "Judy
Abbott," nnd frequently for "Judy Abbott
Chatterton." Playgoers who saw "Daddy
Long-Legs" will know at once how this
strange assortment of names came about,
but the poor postman had never seen the
Jenu Webster play. And so .one after
noon, during n matinee, lie asked the stage
door man to explain the puzzle. That Indi
vidual put the question up to Mlbs Chat

reason.
"The funny part," said Mits Chuttvton
afterward, "Is that the children who wrote

were so near together that one could scarce
find the parting line In the mind nnd each

"Much of the c.inrm of Barrle of the olden

TO WARMER GLORIES
Frederic Santley, Vaudeville Star, Be

Floo '
They used to speak of Joseph Santlcy
as "the boy actor," and he wns, but he
has nothing on his brother Frederic, who
has followed In Joseph's footsteps, and with
deserved success. Certainly both boys havo
had noteworthy careers on the stage, nnd nt
present, whllo Joseph In winning imw lau
rels as a musical comedy star In "Oh, Boy,"
now running In Chicago, Frederlo Is asso
ciated with Florrlo Mlllershlp In vaude
ville, presenting "Tho Girl on tho Magn
slne." under the direction of Brother Jo
seph, Tho act wll bo seen at Keith's Thea
tre next week.
This Is not the first time Frederic Sant
ley has appeared In vaudeville. Ho us
"headlined 'with Florenco Heed nnd was
featured In Oeorge M. Cohan's "Governor's
Son."
The young star has probably had as
varied a career before the footlights as
any young man of his age.
When only two years old he was Bet
adrift on a cake of "prop" floe In "A Sea
of Ice," which the John S. Lindsay Reper
toire Company piloted through Utah. At
four years Fred was In "Sller King" nnd
was a "girl" in "The Galley Slave" and
played Little Wllllo in "East Lynne" beforo
"he wns eight years old. When ho got bb
far east an Chicago ho worked for Lincoln
J. Carter In several of that producer's
"shot-gun operas,' 'after which he venture 1
a step further and played Little Aulls In
"Quo Vndls" for two seasons.
His noxt five years were (.pent, with
Maud3 Adams. Then came his engagement
with tho "County Chairman," and after this
It was simply a whirl of one thing fe:
nnother. Ho appeared In support of many
of the most prominent stars of the legiti
mate stage. When Joseph Kantloy retired
from "When Dreams Come True" Frederic
wns chosen as his successor, and since then
has won recognition for his fine work In
"Glorlanna," "Tho Cohan llevue" nnd "Dew
Drop Inn." For a few weeks early this sea
son Joseph Santley used "The Girl on the
Mngazlno ' ns n vaudeville vehicle and when
he was compelled to withdraw to fill tho
previously arranged booking with "Oh,
Boy," he selected Frederic ns his successor.
the Ade'Pnl Theatre on November 6. Tho
delightful settings whlcli he provided for
tho unusual comedy by CInro Kummcr
marked his first dccoratlvo achievement un
der tho auspices of Charles Hopkins, the
producer of tho play. Mr. Jones's artistic
endeavors were welt known In Bostdn beforo
