Tlie Philadelphia Operatic Society
fave one of the most successful perform
ances of its career nt tlie Academy et
Music last evening when it presented the
tuneful and cran-fti! opera, "The
Oueen's Lnce Handkerchief." by Jehnnu
Strauss. It was the sixteenth sensen nf
the organization and the nfty-scventh
nrnductlen which it has Klven.
Despite the se-called "lightness" of
the opera. It Is a mere difficult one te
give te the best advantage thnn many
a mere ambitious one in plot and music.
The music is typical Viennese music of
the best period, calling for a faultier
feeling for rlijtluu, net an easy thin:;
te Mud in n large nmntcur body, where
there cannot be daily rehcarsnls, its
well as for a characteristic style of
singing and acting, In keeping with
the spirit of both music nnd plot. That
the production was se well done speaks
Telumcs for the capacity of the society.
The en nt was adequate all around,
both in voice and In action, Miss Talz
showing n decided aptitude for stage
work and, lile Miss Fryc singling
well. Mr. Shuttlewerth and Mr.
Mathews took the comedy parts with
much clcvcrnesH. and Dr. Becker, Mr.
Graham und Miss Hitter did well. Mr.
Ress gave an excellent portrayal of
Den Quixote.
The chorus wns a feature of the per
formance, as It Is of all the productions
of the Operatic Society, nnd sang with
enthusiasm the swinging waltz move
ments nnd sparkling tunes of the opera.
The stage settings were excellent, nnd
Mr. Leps conducted with authority uml
discretion.
