a play that made a puro woman Inter

"Bappro" this season was the result of
a suggestion made by a shrewd agent,
who biiw In tho novel an opportunity to
reproduce several of "Zaza's" most strlk
ing situations. It wns the same thought
that Inspired Bertcn r.nd Simon when
thoy first wrote "SSaza" for Mmc. lie-

which the French rctrcss had beon mtmt

MUSICAL GOSSIP.
Leopold Oodowsky Is nn nrtlst whose
fame Is so widespread, nnd whoso abil
ities are so generally recognized, that
comment on his successes or descrip
tion of his exceptional powers as pian
ist and musician are superfluous. His
recognition by public and press has
known constant and steady Increase.
Today he occupies an acknowledged
place among the world's most eminent
pianists, and his playing Is that of one
who rightly wears by virtue of super
ior merit the title of master.
A notable feature of Mr. Godowsky's
recitals this season Is his playing of
certain of the twenty-six studies found
ed upon the Chopin, Etudes, which he
has Just composed works of tremend
ous difficulty but of surpassing beauty,
which have been declared by an emi
nent authority to mark a new advance
in the technics of piano playing.
Mr. Oodowsky will appear In a mag
nificent programme nt the St. Luke's
parish house auditorium next Thurs
day evening, under tho auspices of the
Conservatory. .Present indications point
to a full house. Tho diagram of re
served seats Is now at the Conserva
tory, Adams avenuo and Linden street.

The season of grand opera at the
Metropolitan opera house in New York
will open on December IS with "Faust."
It Is probable that SIgnor Alvarez

that Calve may be tho Marguerite. It
was with this opera that the building
was opened In the fall of 1882, with
Ullsson. Campanlnl and Novara In
the cast. It has been sung there over
100 times since then nnd never falls to
fill the house. The opening this year
Is the latest In several seasons, as the
company will be heard In Boston and
Chicago before appearing In New
York Not many novelties are prom
ised for tho coming season, but several
"all star" performances will bo given.

than nine of the leading artists of the

Tho New York World Is authority
for the statement that the body of

One of the greatest afflictions en
countered by n person with an ear for

upon the suffering If they would ar
range tho lantern song numbers either

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
Now York, Nov. 18,-Tho notable thing
on today's stock market was tho Binall
range of prices considering tho extent nt
tho activity nnd the wldo distribution.
Thcro was a continuous demand during
the wholo of tho two hours' session. Ttte
dcmiuid was fed with a constant supply
which looked like realizing and which
held tho market bnck from nny advancer
but which wnB discontinued on nny signs
of reaction. Tho absorption of Baltimore
and Ohio continued on a largo scalo and
lifted the stock a point. Sugnr was nlso
notably strong as were the local True
Hon shares and somo of tho metal stocks.
Glucose roso i. Minneapolis nnd St.
Louis preferred gained 2. Tho largo ad
vance In Sugar Invited a realizing nni
Baltimore and Ohio was affected by the
same cause. THo bank statement was
followed by a slight hardening at points
but this did not Inst nnd tho market
closed ensy at mixed net changes. Tho
recuperation In tho proportion of bunk
reserves Is almost wholly duo to loan
contraction. Tho turn of over SJ.OOO.ow)
which has been potd to tho mnrkct by
the sub-treasury In tho last three days
for bond redemptions reems to tlnd nl
most no reflection In tho statement. On
tho other hard, the showing of loan con
traction Is believed to bo exaggerated
as that pre cess enmo In the period cov
ered by the week. Tho banks have been
fenders during the latter part of tho week
of sutflclent sums to Inrgely offset tlvJ
earlier contraction. While tho statement
seems to understate tho cash gains and
to overstate tho loan reduction the re
duction of the deficit In reserve met ex
pectations. Total sales, 3C0.900 shares.
