Tuneful Opera Well Sung by the
Wflson-Grsen Company.

The Chimes Of Normandie' last evening
Al the National TheAter was an mellffiuous
and bell-like as tradition demands and be-
yond the merits Of the chorus and the des-
erts OF the principals as singers It must
be confessed the WiIson-Green managers
presented total effect OF prettiness. action.
color and freshness OF voice far and away
from mere amateurishness Tho Chimes'
was well sung and well presented.
The good-for-nothing Serpolette was as
signed to Miss Agnes Farnum. whose vi
vacity and general chicness won the house
at once. Germaine was sung by Miss Annie
Louise Miller In excellent tone and with a
keen appreciation OF the grace and tender
ness of the role. Miss Miller sang with an
ease and reserve that indicates much for
control of voice. The duo in the second
act particularly was rendered with finish
that merited its hearty applause.
The parts of the bailii and the notary
were humorously done by H. 8. Burbank
and q. 8. Waldo, and William Scanthbury
made very convincing Miser Gaspard,
rising in the discovery scene. where the
whole village bursts in upon him while
he is counting his gold, to strong effects.
Mr.. Harry Stevens as the cowardly and
lying f1sherboy, Grenicheux, sang with de-
lightful buoyancy of tone and with a quail
ity that carried him successfully through
not only his solos, but the choruses and
ensembles without the slightest tagging OF
tone. Gifted with an excellent stage pres
ence and perfect self-possession Mr.. Ste
vens has all the requisites of the success
full light opera tenor. All his solos were
the subject of recalls. Indeed, for that mat
ter 1t may be said the Chimes was sung
twice last evening. and not without rea-
son, the large audience appreciating thor
oughly the very excellent presentation.
Henri Marquis of Bonneville was OF course
sung by Tom Green, who sang with his ac-
customed vigor and esprit.
Others In the cast were Mary Wild Cora
Troxell Bernice More and Gertrude Lyd-
dane, and good sized chorus of villagers
so we'll drilled and so fresh of voice that
nothing was left to be desired. except pos
sihly a few more men.

QUAKE In THE EARTH
sEIsMoaRAPH RECORD SHOWS
SERIOUS DISTURBANCE.
Believed to Have Occurred in the Far
East-Lasted Two
Hours

There Is something doing down beneath
the crust Of the earth" said veteran
weather man today. This remark was
called forth by the latest record made by
the seismograph, or earthquake recorder, at
the United States weather bureau on Path
street.
The seismograph shows that an earth
quake of considerable magnitude occurred
In the early morning hours yesterday. The
first record was made at exactly midnight
of May 81, and continued until 2 o'clock
yesterday morning. The strongest portion
of the motion began to 20 hours and "a
minutes am" yesterday and continued
about eleven minutes. The total duration
of the earthquake was nearly two hours.
Both the north and south and the east and
west components of motion were recorded.
This Is the first considera BILE earthquake
recorded here since the great San Francisco
earthquake of April Is. The indications
from these records show that the origin
of the present earthquake was at a much
greater distance from Washington than Is
San Francisco.
Not on American Continent.
Talking to Star reporter today about the
matter. Prof. Chas. F. Marvin said he did
not believe the latest earthquake shock, as
recorded here. was on the American CONT
or even Japan. A significant remark of
Prof Marvin was that there have been
more records of earthquakes made on the
weather bureau seismograph this year than
In any previous year since the instrument
has been installed. Also, that a number
of minor earthquakes have been recorded
since the great disaster at San Francisco,
the last being the greatest since that time.
Generally marked increase has been OBJ

quently, being a rule more severe than
such vibrations prior to that time. Shock
was felt about ten days before the earth
quake at San Francisco, when the vibra
ton was much greater than last night
1t is said that had the shock occurred in
either Hawaii or Japan, as suggested, 1t
might or might not have interfered with
the ocean cables to an extent sufficient to
prevent the transmission of message con-
corning the phenomena

he had noticed many horses in the city
whose drivers could be charged with cruelty
to animals in checking the horses the way
they do.
AS result the humane agents are to-
day on the lookout for horses checked too
