Muratore Returns to Opera Stage and Receives Ovation, By Frank H. Warren. The only thing missing at the per- formance of ‘Monna Vanna" at the ‘Manhattan Opera House last evening ‘was Mr. Muratore’s vocal stamina, Mary Garden, in spite of her hoarso- mess, was there; Georges Baklanoff, the giant baritone and Commander of the Garrison at Pisa, was there; the crowd, the applause, the shouting and the tumult were all on tap. It ‘was a great comeback for the French tenor, who four weeks ago only was) forced to leave his associates in their early season here and submit to an operation. He showed little or no ef- fect of his trouble physically, being ‘as aggressive and as agile as ever, He started to sing with all his well known fervor, but was on the wane toward tthe close of the opera. Prinzivalle, fm this Fevrier lyric drama, is a fine Tole for him. Miss Garden at noon yyesterday decided to sing, and thereby Place a quictus on any possible mur- murings of further temperamental upsets in her operatic family. A cold had bothered her since Monday. “Monna Vanna” is another of the soprano's big roles, all her roles are big, and she revelled in it last even- even adding for good measure a w gestures from her large as- sortment. One cannot truthfully state that ‘“‘Monna Vanna’s'’’ music received the best of treatment under Miss Garden's vocal ministrations. Messrs. Cotreutl, Mojica, Nicolay, (ontesso and Defrere completed the east and Mr. Polacco conducted. The ‘audience teemed with enthusiasm and gave the artists a real ovation at the close of the second act. The Metropolitan Opera attraction was Wagner's music-drama ‘Tristan und Isolde,’ to which a large audi- ence listened patiently and reverent- ly. Florence Easton had her turn at what many consider opera's greatest female role, reserved for those s0- pranos who have crossed the vocal Rubicon. Miss Easton sang with much beauty of tone and expression that lasted right through to the final “Liebestodt,”” in which, in spite of some over zealousness from Mr. Bo- danzky’s orchestra, she managed to make herself heard when necessary. Mr. Sembach had his old part of Tristan and Mr. Whitehill was again ‘an incomparable Kurneval. Mr. Gus- tafson sang sonorously as the King and Jeanne Gordon was an {!mposing Brangaene. The finish of the first act was the high water mark of the performance. The climax in the sec- ond act was hurt again by the !nud- ness of tho orchestra, but Mr. Bo- danzky generally made the music pul- sate, and rise and fall naturally with the drama. The Philharmonic Orchestra’s pro- gramme was more or less familiar in makeup. Conductor Mengelberg la- dled out mo-~ -* his favorite Strauss tonio—in this instance Teutonic—by offering the tone poem “Thus Spake Zarathustra,’’ whose various parts the composer himself laid tare on his re- cent visit to this country. If one @oes not bother with Mr. Strauss's eeetonation that “by this music I meant to convey an idea of the de- velopment of the human face from its origin up to Nietzsche's idea of the Superman,” and listens to .. sim- ply as music, one may derive genuine IN THE REALM OF MUSIC the final “Song of the Night Wan- derer.”" Percy Grainger, pianist, Played the solo portion of Tschat- kowsky’s tuneful and overdone B-flat minor concerto, ~* no pianist ne- glects, and the Brahms Academic Festival Overture closed the concert. It will be repeated this afternoon, Marie Novello, Welsh pianist, made her local debut in a recital in Town Hall, Tho voung lady went in for at “ere by having the auditorium darkened and stationing a plano lamp at her elbow. This was effective without throwing a shadow upon her interpretations, Miss Novello has a light, graceful touch and a sense of color, but a jerky style, punctuated with a few mannerisms, distracting to a listener. The recital for piano and ‘cello given by Ethel Leginska and Hans Kindler in Aeolian Hall discovered an audience that was en rapport with the artists throughout their programme, This comprised a Brahms sonata, a Bach composition played by Mr. Kind- ler, Miss Leginska's own pianoforte compositions, ‘Gargoyles of Notre Dame" and “Scherzo,” after Tagore, and en Ornstein sonata for ‘cello and piano. Miss Legiriska ts an excellent player and an intelligent artist, while Mr. Kindler has an established post- tion In the ‘cello ranks. prabosek ie scan any MODESTY.

Today Finkelstein & Maisel are one of the biggest factors in retail- ing men’s and young men’s high grade clothing to the public, with clientele that extends everywhere, and includes many of our most em- inent citizens. bankers, brokers, judges, journalists, theatrical mag- ine and men of every walk of ife. However, that’s merely inciden- tal to the following facts—an ac- tual, verbatim transcription of a discussion between the two mem- bers of the firm in arranging for a clearance of their entire stock “I'm afraid.” said Mr. Finkel- stein, “that our prices are so low the public. in this instance at least, will ot believe us.” ‘J zuess they know by now. anid Mar I, “we are not fal ers ano we really give them actual wholesale pri ane nothing but pure \onllens.

Imagine, Maisel, if the peo ple could only ‘be made to realize what we are offering them-—seeing what trash they are buying in so many sales at 840 and 850—we'd have to call out the police to keep the crowds in line.” However, the sale is on in both shops. and you are asked not to doubt, but to at least come and see the values before passing judgment. Only one word describes the sale—sensa- tione!—-whether it is the suits and overcoats at $15.95, 820,83, 825.08 or those at 828.05—and the full dress and Tuxedo suits at $30, $35, and #40—wholesale prices, bear in mind, with the extra fifteen per cent. subtracted!
