sKl didn't so last Saturday and I hear

Spire about twelve, hundred people theie,

crew marched through the hall to the plat
form und was Biected with cheers, while
its brave deeds were "suhk" anil applauded.
It was a most stlirliiB evening.
THEY hadn't seen each other for n Ions
time, nnr the had a Rie.it ileal of
business as well as lemlnlscenie to lulU
over at dinner. Kadi Insisted that he was
the host us the sat down, and they both
decided that It would be nice to have some
calar. So thej ordered thai umnnR oilier
things and then stalled in. "Well, now,
this Is the way I look at it," and so forth
nt great length. Onco In a while, both
being hosts, one would Intel rupt for a
minute to remaik, "My, that caviar is
good; have some mine," and then the talk
would deepen again.
Finally tho dinner and the talk weie
over and they called for their check
after the manner of Old King Cole each
grabbing a coiner as It was handed Jo
them, liotli looked nt It and then dropped
It as If it h id suddenly reached out red
hot claws to Brab them. Hol looked
at guest and guest looked at host. "Do

they had consumed twenty-four whole dol-

OPERATIC SOCIETY
IN "BOHEMIAN GIRL"
Excellent Performance of Bnlfc's
Melodious Work Given by
Local Organization
The Philadelphia Operatic Society ast eve
ning gave one of the best performances of
Its career In Balfe's tuneful and thoroughly
delightful opera, 'The Bohemian GUI" The
society has secured for Itself a tlxed posi
tion In the musical life of the clt). which
the performance last evening strengthened.
While the principal parts ot the opera
were adequate!) sung and acted, the miln
strength of the socletv lies naturallv In Its
massul effects, the splendid ehorus Htid the
members of the graceful ballet. Mr Lep,
the conductor of the soclet), has done won
ders with the former and has trained It lo
n high degree of elllclency, while Frances
Fitch, the mistress of the ballet, lias per
formed on eqml service for thoe members
of the society who eome under her direct
supervision.
The psrt ot Arllne ring bj Kathrn Mc
Olnley Noble, was s)iupathetlc In Its de
lineation of the character The opera
abounds In melody, but there Is none In It
which has had a more enduring popularltv
than the famous song (It can hnrdl) be
called an aria) In the second act. "I Drenmt
I Dwelt In Marble Hsll" which was Riven
with tine voice and temperament. The prin
cipal male part, Thiddeus, taken bv Paul
Volkmann. was well done, bis chief numbers
being Ills psthetlc opening song "'Tis Sad
to Leave Your Fatherland" In tin- first net:
"When Other Lips and Other Hearts," one of
the still popular songs of the opera, and the
stirring martial ong, "When the Fair Lmd
of Poland," both of the latter In the last
net All wire will sung and the histrionic
elelliiPatlon of the part, which Is not eisv,
was as well presented
A close second to thec two nrlnein.il n.irts
was that of Count Arnheliii, sung bv Horace
II Hood. Ills singing and his iie-thig of
the part left little to be desired, mid his
melancholy song, "The Heart Bowed Down."
in the second scene of the second ml, whs
ono of the features or the evening. Tills
song In permanent popular!! rivals the prin
cipal melodies of the soprano and the tenor
The other leading perls were also well
presented, when It Is t ili n Into consideration
that Mr. Lips Ins not had the advantage of
the long dull) rehearsals, which, In the end
form the basis of the perfection or the preat
opera companies Kathr.vn C Morton, a eon
tralto new to tin? Operatic Soclet), did falrl)
well as the t,)ps Queen, although the dra
matic requirements of the p irt are evicting

not had a long prnft s'lonal training The p iris

Mention his been made of the worl of the
clioius, and there were some exmlleut ensem
bles. Among these were the )psv c'lioru", ' In
the G)ps)'s Life lnu Mav Head" In tho llrl
act. the prajcr, 'Thou Who In Might Su
preme," nt the clos,. of the same act; the
quaint little g)psy chorus, "Silence. Silence,
the Lad) Moon," at the opening of the sec
ond act ; the unaccompanied quartet, "From
the Valle)H and I11IK, ' In the second scene
er the second act, and the pretty ensemble,
'Praised B the 1 111 or Heaven," which
closes the second act
Much credit must nlso ro to tho stage
manager, . II. Fitzgerald, Tor the clever
staging or the opera Tho scepprv was at
tractive and tilting and the sinoothnesi with
which the entire opera was performed was
due In a large incisure to tho work ot Mr.
Fitzgerald.
Mr I.eps conducted the opcia with a thor
ough understanding of Its lequlrements.
Conducting an opera wlih hlghlv trained pro
fesslonal singers Is ono thing, but conducting
it with a nim-profc-slonnl company which
has not had the advantage ; constant re
hearsals Is something entlrelj different Most
of the success f anv opt ra Is due in the
last aualvsls to the iiniimltlng t.ue and
vlgllince or the conductor and last evening's
performance was no exception to this gin
eral rule.
