ine Farrar Has Her Turn at the Metropolitan as Floria Tosca. By Frank H. Warren. * It was Geraldine Farrar's turn” at the Metropolitan Opera House last evening. The queen of American sopranos, queen in priority at any rate, made her first appearance or the Season, singing Floria Tosca in Puc- eint's melodramatic work. Miss Far- yar was joyously received. Applau: @waited her throughout the opera, particularly after the big second act aria, and numerous curtain calls were further adorned with the customary Farrar deluge of bouquets that fell in fail spins from the upper balconies, ‘The soprano has changed little in ap- pearance. She looked as gorgeous as ever in ber array of costumes. Her + yolce seemed fresh. She used it care- fully and was moderation itself in the “Vies| d’Arte” aria, It was effective, however. Mr, Martinelli also enjoyed the salu- tations of an initjal appearance, and Antonio Scotti, laying aside bis im- presario robes, stood revealed the familiar malevolent Scarpla, a part with which he has thrilled audiences from coast to coast. Richard Strauss helped the Town Ball Endowment Fund last evening by giving there a concert of his own chamber music. Mr. Strauss took charge of the plano and was assisted w Bronislaw Huberman, violinist; iem Willeke, ‘cellist, and William Kroll, viola The sonatas for ‘cello and piano, and for violin and piano, may be passed over, but the quartette for piano and strings, opus 13, had de- lightful moments. Vasa Prihoda, a violinist, who made hia debut here last year, returned yes- terday a tempered performer. For- getting for a moment a few of the greatest, Mr. Prihoda's playing was a8 satisfactory as one could wish for Jaacha Pesetzki, a Western pianist in Aeolian Hall In the evening showed a crisp style and a good working knowledge of expression. Marcel Dupre, organist at Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, was intro- duced to America in a recital in the evening in the Wanamaker Audi- torium. Next week's opera repertoire at the Metropolitan will be: Monday, “Lou- with Miss Farrar in the title Wednesday, “La Traviata,” sung by Galli-Curcl, Gigli and Danise; Taursd: afternoon, “Madame But- terfly,” with Miss Farrar; evening, “Die Tote Stadt,” with Mme.

It never left me from the second I got it,” ehe confessed, “I liked him so terribly ali vhe while.” “Then why on earth all the other?” Bhe didn't shift her gase, deep with eelf-inquiry, but sald, “I have not made that all clear in my own mind even yet. I only feel that there just were the two forces, Love for Jim; pride for myself.” “And when did the one begin to be really ‘above’ the other?
