THE MELBA CONCERT

The Media concert last evening was
distinct disappointment, in so far as the
diva herself was" concerned.
An audience such as might have de-
lighted the heart of the most capr1c1ous
of prima donnas, overlooked the a1sles,
filled the galleries and even occupied half
the stage at the Lyceum. 1t was a
gracious audience, eager and even anxious
to be pleased. 1t was attentive and ex-
pectant. The acknowledged queen Of bel
canto was to sing. But, altho it waited
and dutifully clapped it's hands, and
looked as tho it was having a good time,
and called and recalled Nine. Melba, 1t
was not until nearly the close of the
program that the cantatrice began to
give any more than the merest hints or
her claims to the tiara SO long since laid
aside by Patti
That Melba's voice is exquisite in its
sweetness and purity is evident, even to
the most casual listener. That as
coloratura singer she is peerless is equal
ly evident Why was it, then, that last
evening there was such a lack Of Verve
and fire in the prima donna's offerings?
There was no indication that the smiling
diva was even slightly indisposed, and yet
not until the Tosti "Serenade," sung
just before the close of the program
was there any enthusiasm.
Nine. Melba's first number was the
tme-honored stock song, the MAD
Scene" from Lucia" She has sung ii
hundreds Of times, and it has repeatedly
earned for her numberless recalls. Last
evening it was sung listlessly. The pyro-
technics were subdued There was q
little red fire and an occasional Roman
candle but the skyrockets were con-
spicuously lacking, and the final climactic
note In alt was safely taken an octave
lower.
OF Melba's other numbers, the Tost
| "Serenade' was exquisitely sung to harI
| accompaniment. Each note was lirnpit
in its purity and beauty, and the ac
compartment was superb. The Ardlt
| ''Waltz Song was also a work of art
altho it failed to arouse much enthusiasm
| Nine. Melba was recalled many time
and was showered with clusters Of roses
Her last encore was Comm Thru tn
Rye" AS the chords Of the introduction
fell from the piano, there was a burs
| of applause, and then intense silence a
the old Scotch air, one of the only tw
numbers Of the evening sung in English
came from the singers lips. Her dictio
was perfect, but her voice: is evidentl
unsuited to that style Of ballad.
Of Melba's accompanying artists, Sig
norma Sassoli, the harpist, and N
Gilbert were easily the favorites. TIL
former played exauisitely and was re
peatedly recalled. Her work is the MOI
-, remarkable because Of her youth. n
Gilbert is French, and his bonhomi
coupled with his artistic use of reall
good barytone, quite captured his aud
ence. His range is phenomenally hie
and his pianissimos and delicate toucht
| are very effective. Ellison Van Hoos
sang the celeste Aide'' solo from Verdi
aida" His voice is high and has
r resonant quality that is dramatically ust
, full, but he sings with an appare1
effort that detracts from the pleasu
of hearing him. Miss Davies accompanie
satisfactorily. Howard Boardman.

MISS WILLARD'S STATUE

Washington, Jan. 17.-Miss Frances
E. Willard, the great advocate of pro-
hibition and for many years identified
as the head Of the Women's Christian

woman to have her life and deeds COM
Elliot Woods, architect Of the capt.

within a few days the model Of the
statue of Miss Willard would be sent
him for inspection. It will be pre-
sented to the government by the state

the capitol by the government and the
state Of Illinois did not care to dupli
