LA TOsCA" PRESENTED.
Nine. Bernhardt Thrills Large Audi
ence in Famous Role,


Those who had witnessed Sarah Bern
hardt's performance of Floria Tosca. in
Sardou's play OF that name. when tho
play was in its youth many years ago.
sat spellbound at the National Theater
last night through her wonderful define
alton of the woman Of the stage, en-
amored of Mario Cavaradossi, who suf-
fers torture for the sake OF her lover
and finally kills herself when she dis
covers that all her sacrifices are in vain.
Again did they witness the wonder
full acting and rhetorical flights of the
church scene, the scorn at the advances
of Baron Scarpia, the meeting and con-
sequent love of Mario. the horrible tor
ture scene in the dungeon. the shoot
ing of Mario, and the final discovery by
Tosca that her lover has been executed
in spite of her efforts to save him, fol-
lowed by her sensational drop from the
battlements to death below.
OF her supporting company the best
work was done by NJ. Maxudain, the
Baron Scarpia, whose personality was
better suited to the role than it had
been to those of Metternich and George
DuvaL Others in the cast whose work
was satisfactory were NJ. Denenbourg
as Mario, NJ. Decoeur as Angelotti, and
NJ. Tellengen as Spoletta.

Spoke in Burlington.

At the observance of the 45th ami
versary of the Burlington y. NJ. Z. A.,
in that city Sunday evening Henry
Bond of Brattleboro delivered an elo-
auent address The Free Press of Mon
day in reporting the meeting refers TO
Mr.. Bond address as follows;
"Judging by the Fruit y was the sub.
iect of Mr.. Bond s address, and he
spoke glowingly of what the associa
ton stands for and what it aims to ac.
complish. In the first place, Mr.. Bond
said, it stands in place of a home, and
he emphasized the words sin place of.
1t gives the nearest to home that 1t
can. Secondly. il stands for healthy
lives. Adam in the Garden of Eden
had sufficient sunlight and fresh air,
but no soft coal smoke. We take our
Young men away from the sunlight and
fresh air and into the soft coal smoke,
shut up in offices and bent over desks.
1t is fallacy, Mr. Bond asserted, that
God tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb. We must give our young men
let for vigor, some right way for his
development to manhood. And this the
Y. NJ. C. A. stands for it, 1t stands
also for education. 1t reaches all class
es. 1t reaches railroad men, more than
so per cent. of the latter being in Bible
study classes, the army, the navy and
country homes. 1t appeals, also, to all
classes for Young men. to mothers with
sons growing up, to fathers and mothers
of daughters, for the sake of the lat
ter Is future husband. and to employers,
Unity also it stands for, bringing all
denominations together, uniting. in
Christian work and finding good in
Others. But above all does it stand for
the reaching of Young men to Jesus
Christ. God is honoring up today. in
the work of the association.
1t is splendid thing to start a young
man in business and in home making.
but it is far finer thing to start him in
the making of a higher home. Mr..
Bond is forcful and eloquent speaker
His address. particularly fine and NOV
ing at the close, ought to lend consider
able impetus to. and a fuller apprecia-
ton of. the work of the local associa-
ton.
