Maria Jeritza, stately and beautiful, well deserving from every point of view to be as she is, the prima donna of the Metropolitan House, in New York, conquered with both her charm- ing personality .and her marvelous singing an audience that filled Poli's Theater yesterday afternoon to the nding-room capacity, Mme. a singer with a tremendous, matic-soprano voice; she seems perfectly versed in the technicalities of the art of singing; she is one of a small group who know how to use their mouths for enunciation, and also she is a gracious person. In short, Mire. Jeritza is a fine artist—and the story is told. Moreover, she was graceful in spite of a still bothersome sprained ankle vesterday. The great blonde Viennese opened her program with the famous arfa anne d'Arc,” which she sang with well chosen phrasing and clean- cut enunciction, so that practicall word of her excellent French was lost. She followed the aria with a group of which included Rich- Zuelgnung,” sung with interpretation and lovely planissimo tones on “habe dank” each time the ase occurred; Prahm's humorous little song, “Der Schmied"; Schubert’s “Gretchen am Spinnen: < with unusually Interse dra- . and Hugo Wolf’s lovely Ist's.” The encore uf der Welt." AMme, ritza’s next group empha- sized even more decidedly the okl and appropriate themes of Springtime and love and included several songs sung in delightfully clear and neatl: enun- ciated English.

First: In addition to eoap and water cleanliness the scalp must be disinfected—freed completely from dandruff germs. The gentle safe antiseptic in Ed. Pinaud’s Eau de Quin- ine destroys dandruff germs Ed Pinauds | Liza Lehmann's “Cuckoo Song,” and sical O. Henry endings. The singer | seemed to thoroughly enjoy singing Dr. Hennemann's song and, following it, insisted he rise in the box where he and Mrs. Hennemann were sit- ting, and share in the applause. She gave a pretty gesture when she tossed him a_rose The English encores to this group were “Homage to Spring,” by Mac- “adden; “Joy,” by Harvey Gaul: “Birth of Morn,” by Leonl. It didn't matter if the singer did leave out three of tha flve progressive “Dawns’ in this familiar song, for she sang it joyously with adequate support by Emil Polak, k markably flne ac- companist. A flashing glance as of a child who has broken a dish and is scared for an Instant of what is golng to happen flew from Jerltza's eves when she realized the dawns she had omitted, but nobody in the audience cared; she could have left them all out and everybody would have been just as happy, so wonderful is her personality. Also, highly to be com- mended is this singer, who thinks enough of her audience to learn her songs and give them without the pallid discourtesy of the little black book of words. She did not use notes for a single number. The last number, which began well after 6 o'clock, yet for which the au- dience renalned slmost intact, was another arl: “Pace, Pace,” from Verdl's “Force of Destiny,” beautiful- ly sung. hen, as encores, insisted upon by the audience, were: “I Come With a Song,” by Frank LaForge; “The Year's &t the Spring,” by Mrs H.

There were glimpses of nice work in the Mozart- Kreisler “Rondo” in the cadenzas, but his tone was usually colorless. Again in the second group, in the Sarasate “Gypsy Alrs,” there were passages of difficult chromatics which he got quite well. Tis encore was Gounod's “Ave Maria,” =o exquisitely played here a few weeks ago by Mr. Kreis- ler. The interpretation yesterday was far from beautiful. HPF GIVE RECITAL. Loius and Ruby Potter Formerly Ac- tive in Local Circles. Louis Potter, organist, and Mrs. Louis Potter, generally known in musical circles as Ru Potter, so- prano, gave a Joint recital at the Epworth M. E. Church South fast night that was attended by a group of leading musicians of the city who counted the Potters {n their midst until last Fall, couple picked up their household goods and moved to Charleston, W. Va., where Mr. Potter is organist and choir director of one of the princl- pal churches and Mrs, Potter is already a favorite singer. After the recital last night the couple took the mid- night train to New York, Mr. Pot- ter to broadcast an organ program tomorrow night from the metropolis. Mr. Potter is a good planist and a fine organist. He played the finale of Vierne's “First Symphony” especial- ly well last night. The Bach prelude when this talented | Mrs. Potter sang the beautiful ““Care Selve” of Handei with good legato style and her reading of David's “Thou Lovely Bird,” from “The Pearl of Brazil with its intricate tripping cadenzas, was unusually interesting. On Tuesday night at the meeting of the Orpheus Club Mr. Potter gave several numbers. He also sang a song, his own composition, and the first song he has ever written. He used the words of an old Engllsh poem. Mr Potter has a fine baritone quality of voice as well as being ac- compiished in o many other musical lines. .
