Last. night she swept to brilliant triuniph in her debut at the Metropolitan Opera House as 5,000 persons outside stormed the doors and a capacity house of more than 4,000 gave her an ovation rivaling those accorded Enrico Caruso. Twenty times the soprano was called t< tain when the opera was finish- ed. The aria “Caro Nome,” the high spot in her performance as Gilda. in Verdi’s “Rigoletto,” brought nine calls. Though New ‘York took shy singer to its heart, with thusiasm, none was happier then Miss Talley parents and 200 friends and relatives who came from Kansas City to see het triumph. The young singer herself was least demonstrative of all. “I’m awfully happy that I have pleased these wonderfully kind and friendly people,” she Said. While those within the huge auditorium were hearing her first notes mature and full, mounted police were riding, four abreast, along the side- walks to clear them of the crowd. With every available seat sold days ago,-belated would be patrons offered speculators as high as $100 a seat. Eight men were arrested as ticket scalpers. Across a little corridor from the stage, Charles Talley; a tele- graph operator for the Missouri Pacific Railroad and once an operator for‘’-the Associated Press, ticked out on a wire in- stalled by the Associated Press that the dreams of the family had come true. ‘ 2 Asked if his daughter had in- herited her voice from him, Mr. Talley remarked: “I guess it’s from Heaven.”, young Otto H. Kahn, chairman of the board of directors of the Metropolitan Opera Company, congratulated 262 — rang expressed -his faith in her fu- ture. Mayor I. Beach, of Kansas City, failed to share Miss Tal- ley’s.calm. “I’ve had an awful- -ly happy though rather nervous evening,” he said. Moestro Avitable, Marion’s first Metropolitan coach, smiled and said, “I am satisfied.” “The American nightingale,” was what Arturo Bodanza the conductor, called her. He predicted that she would become as popular as Patti. Newspaper critics were gen- erous. With her debut safely behind her, Miss Talley today began preparations for her second ap- pearance as “Lucia,” at a Washington’s birthday matinee. By selling out the house for two operas before Broadway had heard her voice, Miss Talley has set a record. e Tomorrow night she makes her radio debut, singing with Martinelli, Metropolitan tenor, from WJZGand allied stations ‘ine | anniversary celebratio# in Havana in! connection with the dedication of | } the monument erected in memory of | the heroes who lost their lives in the sinking of the battleship in Havana jharbor in 1898.

In addition this dis- turbance has caused decidedly warmer weather throughout the eastern portion of the country Where temperatures are now ab- normally high. Over the Great Plains the weather is much colder in con- sequence of high pressure with its crest over the Dakotas. Temperature unseasonably high in all districts east of the Plateau except about normal ever the western portion of the Great Plains. It is freezing southward over the Texas pan- handle this- morning and cloudy or unsettled weather generally except clear skies over southern Florida. Moderate south and south- west winds, probably shifting to west and northwest Saturday, will prevail over the Florida Keys. H. B. BOYER, Official in Charge.
