The audience was little more than the sine of the subscription, but it was absorbed in the work, showed intelligent compre- hension of it, and—best of compll: ments—stayed until the end. The cast was the same as that of last year, with two exceptions, In the Place of Anna Care, as Sophie, ap- peared Elisabeth Schumann, who, if she lacked something of Miss Case's {ngenuous charm, disclosed a fresh, pure, high soprano voice capable of singing the music as It was written without effort or strain, She proved @ worthy acquisition, and her future appearances with the company will be watched with interest. At the close of the second act her associates permitted her to take a curtain call alone, and she deserved It. The sub- stitution of Vera Curtie for Rita For- nia as the duenna was not so easy to understand, Frieda Hempel as the Princess was as convincing as ever. It is by far| the best thing in her repertory that she has disclosed to us. Margarete Ober acted Octavian with all her origina) charm and imbued it, if that were possible, with greater power and beauty of voice. Otto Goritz made his Baron Ochs more mellow, to its improvement, and Hermann Well re- peated his competent Von Fanival. Paul Alphonse sang the tenor aolo in| the Princess's boudo!
