GORGAS' DRUG STORES I« N. Third St. and P. R. .1. Statloa SCHUMANN-HEINK A WED, THRILLED, SOUL EXPRESSIONS 1 The three qualifications for a singer, we are told, are mental fitness, phys ical fitness and vocal fitness. These are essential, but not sufficient. A good voice, a good physique and a good mind might produce a song or group of songs technically perfect, in a charming way, and on a high plane Intellectually. The ear would be flattered, the mind fed and enriched, but the heart starved. In singing, the Italians demand voice, the French style, and the Ger mans soul. A singer acquiring all three requirements would still lack something. What is good singing, then? It must be admitted there are many beautiful voices, but few singers, and fewer artists. There are voices at eighteen and twenty years of age, singers at twenty five and thirty, but no artists at that age. It is obvious, then, that voice alone will not malce even a singer, much less an artist. The voice Is the servant of t he mind. The body Is also a servant. The mind is master. The heart is the barometer indicating coldness or warmth. The soul is the exalted ruler, which, when called upon, adds to the mind (he quality of authority, sincerity and spirituality. Singing, therefore, requires intelli gence, voice, physical condiUon (vital ity), heart and soul, and other ele ments that cannot be classified, all working together, and blending with a unified purpose. It has been truly said that the voice is the sounding-board of the soul. The serious, the sarcastic, the disagreeable, the stupid, the sympathetic, the light hearted, all proclaim themselves through the voice. The voice Is the reflector of the inner self. The answer to what is good singing may be found in the singing and artistry as exemplified by Madame Schumann-Heink, A singer of hot type is rare: she appeals to the masses and elect alike: to rich and poor, to cultured and uncultured, to layman and musician, to youth and old age. She makes them love what we are pleased to call the classics. She wor ships the beautiful and makes all who hear her worship with her. She laughs and they laugh with her. She sobs.

There may be some doubt as to whether some prayers I reach the Four Walls ol Paradise, but I surely, surely—and this is said with ; the deepest reverence—Schumann ! Heink's singing of "My Heart Ever Faithful." "Ah! My Son!" "The Erl King." "Ixmging," "The * Cry of ! Rachel" and "The Rosary" reached a heavenly audience also. The Madam has a keen sense of | humor, and a happy knack of refleot ' ins the mood of the song by constantly j changing facial expresion. She has I thorough voice control, perfect com mand of mezza voce and tone color, ; and uses sotto voce in a subtle and telling manner. In Schubert's "Erl King' the voice of the frightened boy—the brave and reassuring voice of the father—the fearful yet persuasive voice of the Erl King, were all so vividly and truthfully 1 portrayed by the singer, and the gal loping horse by the accompanist, that 1 M seemed at last was found the artist for whom the song was written. Poor Schubert (died 1828) did not live to hear anyone do his great song justice. The task is too big to tell about every song on the wonderful program : offered by Schumann-Heink at the 1 Chestnut Street Auditorium last night. The audience was awed—thrilled and . charmed. The program was well chosen, the numbers being sharply , contrasted, and delivered with an opu -1 lence of tone and artistry not to be re corded in words. And such an audience—tremendous. | magnificent, enthusiastic, appreciative and responsive. Miss Edith Evans played accom , paniments marvelous for their accu racy and sympathetic support. The platform was draped with flags ; and further beautified by a goodly ni.mber of young ladies arrayed in white, who assisted in the opening of , the concert by singing "America," in which the audience joined. The Na tional Hymn lost dignity by too fast j a tempo. 1 This concert closed the season for 1 Fred C.

He is opening the ! musical gates to the masses, and there j fore worthy of very generous support. JOHN W.

How she escapes from n NHV Yorker who persuaded her to go with him and is tiie only witness to a murder, how she afterwards, unknow ingly. meets the man who is falsely ac , i iised of the crime, and falls in love with him and how, by a clever trick, is able to get a confession from the real j murderer and thus exonerates the man she loves from conviction, tends to make a picture dramatic in its theme, stirring in its action and unusual in its motive.
