The New Phillips.


Hoyt, in the two performances IN
which he has appeared this week end
at the New Phillips shows himself to
be a master Of expression in singing.
His barytone voice is at it's best in
the rendition of the score ''Traumeri,"
and sets new standard of vocal mu-
sic at the playhouse. The violin play
ing to the accompaniment of a talk
ing machine met with the audiences
favor and the bill this week tends to-
ward one of the most successful of the
season. The little playlet, "The Inter-

this act are extremely novel in their

Otis Skinner.

Charles Frohman will present Otis
Skinner here this season in his latest
New York success, THE Honor of the
Family" founded on one of Balzac's
most powerful novels. 1.-THE Honor of
the Family" is a strong story and the
adaptation of the original Ere nch
work is said to have been performed
with consumate cleverness by Paul
M. Potter Mr.. Skinner will be seen
in one of those virile roles, Napole-
onic hero, in which his admirers like
him best. He has the support of the
best dramatic organization that Man
ager Frohman could secure. Miss
Percy Haswell, his leading woman, is
known to be one of the most accom-
plished artists now before the public
and the arduous and complex role
which she will portray in "The Honor
of the Family will doubtless furnish
convincing proof of the versatile
phase of her art. Players like Francis

Carpenters of Cathay VIII Compare
with Occidentals.
In Judging the performance of the
native Chinese workman it is almost
impossible to avoid the popular bias
that addiction to their own methods
and tools invariably bespeaks fatuous
conservatism. Though this is in many
cases true, it will often be found on
careful observation that what has pass
ed for a stubborn blindness to the vir-
tue of innovation Is in reality a keener
perception Of comparative merits than
the judge himself was aware Of.
This is particularly true Of Chinese
carpenters. While most of their COM
monest tools differ in some radical
way from our own, 1t is never safe to
assume the superiority of the western
product Their small Ak, for example,
Is beautifully balanced tool. and they
are remarkably adept in the use Of it,

Davy made his epochal experiment
Of melting ice by friction when but
twenty. Young was no older when he
made his first communication to the
Royal society and was in his twenty
seventh year when he first actively
espoused the undulatory theory Fres-
mel was twenty-six when he made his
first important discoveries in the same
neld, and Arago, who at once became
his champion, was then but two years
his senior.
Forbes was under thirty when he dis
covered the polarization of heat. which
pointed the way to Mohr. then thir-
ty-one, to the mechanical equivalent.
Joule was twenty-five in 1910, when
his great work was begun, and Mayer.
whose discoveries date from the same
year, was then twenty-six, which was
also the age Of Helmholtz when he
published bis Independent discovery
Of the same law. William Thomson
was a youth just past his majority
when he came to the aid of Joule be-
fore the British society and but seven
years older when he formulated his
own doctrine Of dissipation of energy.
And Clausius and Rankine. who are
usually mentioned with Thomson as

Nine. Marchesi.

Nine Marchesi, in placing the
possibilities of a good voice" at the
head of her list of qualifications for a
successful singer, explains that the
right muscles. the proper shape of the
mouth and the physical requisites
must of course be good.
The second important qualification
she says is the teacher who not only
knows her work but has an interest in
her pupil.
The careful training of a voice
which is in itself not extraordinary,
means far more than the Indifferent
training of a magnificent natural
voice which is too often ruined by in.
correct and careless methods. There
are thirteen stringent rules which
Nine Marchesi gave as necessary
qualifications and a third of these
rules is spelled with great capital
H and is Health.
Without perfect health and a good
constitution, the aspiring singer may
as well give up the struggle for wrest'
ing grand opera, oratorio or concert
honors. Nature plays telling influ'
ence in this pursuit of career.
AS a fourth qualification comes I'M
firing perseverance. 1T is sadly true
said Nine. Marchesi. that many as
pirants, both parents and young girls
nowadays, think one can become a
perfect singer after few months
work. II they only knew how long and
tedious a road leads to success! The
great singers of the past studied five
or six years. In fact. they never
cease studying. BY this, / do not
mean continual vocal practice. l re
fer to intellectual development also
which plays powerful part in the
life of a singer"
Thoroughness is the fifth demand
made by Nine. Marchesi; or as she
earnestly explained, there can be
nothing superficial about the training
of a voice for successful career"
Presence, which she says means
more personally than beauty, is an es
sential, the lack of which has SEN
many a beautiful voice into oblivion.

The Great Duatard.

The great bustard (Otis tarda), bird
still found in the southern provinces Of
Russia, is the heaviest European fowl.
In size 1t exceeds the Norwegian black
cock. The old males attain a weight of
thirty-fve pounds, and where food is
plentiful specimens weighing thirty
eight pounds and even forty pounds
have been captured. These birds have
disappeared from western Europe,
where once they were almost as numer-
Gus as partridges, and are seen only in
small flocks in the sand hills skirting
the lower valley of the Dnieper and
here and there along the north coast of
the Caspian. The hen lays eggs as big
as ordinary pears. A larger and heav-
Ter bird, the cassowary, is incapable OF
flight, but it can kick with the
strength Of a mule and uses the sharp,
bony quilts Of Its wings as q cock uses
his spurs.
