MISS LUDWIG AS JULIET
NEWS SFROM THE THEATER

It has been said. by those that ought to
know. that one of the real successes OF
the late Grau-Savage opera season was the
singing Of Miss Josephine Ludwig. who IL
vet by reaIiable accounts a member OF the
proba tionary stan Of the Music Hal forces
Last night this young soprano had her
first real test before a st. Louis audience
Heretofore, she has had the misfortune to
sing parts that have not been suited TO the
ways of popular success. and for this reason
there has been no outpouring of local en-
thusiasm In the Ludwig direction
As Juliet. Miss Ludwig is the prettiest
figure that has been seen on the stage at
Music Hall since Miss de Treviile was one
of its adorning stars a year ago. Indeed, or
the two women. Miss Ludwig is the prettier
by most standards. Her voice is as true
ard as velvety as De Treville's, and there
seems to be more Of the many scattering
elements of good stage work In what she
does than were to be found In the singing
OF the young lady with the French name
Unlike most of the Juiiets We see, Miss
Ludwig looks somewhat like the trained
minds picture of the unfortunate daughter
OF the Capulets. In the balcony scene and
in the morning duet with Romeo, she was
as rarely beautiful a picture as the Music
Hall stage has yet presented There must
be more OF Miss Ludwig in the operas II the
management is desirous OF presenting It's
best side at all times
Mr.. Sheehan was the Romeo last night
He was quite as energetic and faithful to
his work as he was on Monday night All
OF the loozeness that characterized his
work last week was quite forgotten in the
spirit In which ne used his excellent voice.
the energy and thoughtfulness of his act
ing and his increasingly respectful de-
meanor toward his audience. Mr. Clarke
was the excellently sonorous Friar Law
renee, and Mr. Mertens was adequate as
Capulet Mr. Elder was tuneful and good
looking Tybalt, contributing a deal to the
duel scene.
Another event of a week that has been
musically quite busy Will be the Strauss
concerts, beginning at the Odeon tomorrow
evening. There is to be a concert Saturday
afternoon, one in the evening and another
Sunday night, closing the engagement.
Ben Stern. who was for a number of years
the successful manager Of Miss Davenport,
is now in charge of the tour OF Miss Walsh,
who is now playing to good patronage at
the Century Theater. Mr.. Stern has great
faith In the woman star and he says that
4. IS his intention to adhere as closely 10
this policy as he finds IL possible to do His
season with Miss Walsh. despite the fact
that the play Is an old one. In the sense
that plays are nowadays considered o.d,
has been successful. He hopes to have
s. mething entirely new for his promising
star for the opening of the next theatrical
year.
