NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE most inn
portant event of last week was the
opening Of Mr.. David Warfield at the
Charles Klein, entitled The Music
Master" Mr.. Warfield plays the part
Of German professor of music who
comes to New York in search of his
wife who ran away several years be-
fore with a man who had infatuated
her, taking her baby daughter with her.
His wife is dead but he finds his
daughter who comes to him to take
piano Lessons. He finds her surrounded
by all the luXuries she could possible
wish for given her by the man she
calls father" who has become a veal
thy and respected banker. She is also
shortly to be married to young man
OF very fine family. Her father has
been searching for her for 16 years but
when he finds her happy and in such
easy circumstances, knowing that he
has nothing to offer her but his love
and devotion he decides to leave her as
she is, without telling her who he is
and returns to Germany. He has a
scene with the man known as her
father and would like to punish him by
exposing him but he realizes that such
course would also mean much unhap-
piness for his daughter and he leaves
him unmolested. On the day he is to
| leave for Germany his daughter, having
| found out his relationship comes to
| him and claims him as her father and
all ends happily.
| The story is not by any means a new
one but under the supervision of Mr..
| David Belasco, undoubtedly the great
est stage director in this country, it has
been made play that will hold the at
tention of most any audience. 1t is
appealing and is full of heart interest
and pathos.
Too much cannot be said of Mr.
Warfield who has demonstrated that he
is an artist of rare talent and excep-
tional ability. The character of the
Music Master is one that everyone
loves and Mr.. Warfield portrayed it Sc
true to life that dare say everyone il
acting is more remarkable on accoun
of his part calling for German dialec
which he executed with a skill neve
excelled by an American actor, and no
for an instant falling into the Hebrew
dialect, his former characters for 81
many years.

railroad crossing. This means that the
racers, according to the rules must re-
duce their speed and follow a guide
on bicycle or horse. This time con-
sumed in passing through control is
to be deducted from the total time.
The competitors are not allowed to
make any supplies while in control.
From Hicksville the course is over
the Massapequa road, very narrow but
in fair condition otherwise. Another
railroad corssing is to be met here but
there are only a few trains that pass
each day and this is not regarded as a
great interference. At Queens there
are two turns and short one eighth of
a mile connecting road, as the circuit
does not meet there. Though there is
plenty of room. the turns are very
sharp and require reduction of speed.
The connecting road is crossed by the
main line of the Long Island railroad,
over which there is almost continuous
traffic. The road itself is narrow and
is in bad shape. The home stretch Is
over the Jerico pike. At Floral park
there is sharp down grade under a
railroad bridge. and up again on the
other side. This piece of road is made
more difficult because of curves ap-
preaching and leaving the dip. After
this the course to the finish line is
wide and smooth and the grades are
slight. s yea
1t is calculated by experts that the
average speed for the 800 odd miles
will be close to a mile minute, but
the slowing down for, turns and con-
trolls win draw out the race and 1t will
probably be the middle Of the afternoon
or later before the last car has passed
| the finish line.

are competing is known as the William

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller)
NEW YORK, Oct. s.-The sun had
scarcely made it's appearance over the
Long Island hills this morning when
the start was made in the great inter-
national automobile race for the Van
derbilt cup. Despite the early hour a
large crowd of enthusiasts and lovers
of sport were out to see the crack autos
begin the contest for the coveted tro-
ply. The competitors were lined up
on a cross road of Jericho turnpike at
Westbury and conducted one by one to
the line, where they were started UNI
der three minute Roadway. 1t took
Just one hour to put all the cars over
the line and then the mad race over
the triangular course was begun in
earnest.
Eighteen machines started in the
race. They represented Germany,
France, Italy and America. Those who
follow International automobile racing
carefully picked three out of the eight
cen for favorites. These are Werner,
in Clarence Gray Dinsmore's ninety
horse power Mercedes; Sartcri. in Al
fred G. Vanderbilt's ninety horse power
FL. A. T., and Heath in a ninety horse
power Panhard Following these three
..ninetys' closely in favor was the
eighty horse power Clement Bayard,
driven by Alfred Clement. These Sc
lections were based on the form OF the
cars and drivers in the Homburg, Ar
dennes and other famous races abroad.
The course over which the race Is
run lies on the Hampstead plains, and
is 1924 miles in length. The contest
