Third Year

A short time ago a young woman
graduated from the Conservatory of
Defamation. She passed a special ex-
animation in an effort to obtain an
of Jassy, Roumania. The committee
before which she passed the exami
nation thought she would make a
valuable addition to the company of
players She was engaged. The man
agement was certain she would make
bring the public to her feet. So it
would, but-and there is the most
that any one can encounter in Roman
ia-she is of Jewish descent. To be
sure her stage name is Francesca
Rozan, about as ROumalnlan1Zed
name as she can get after translating
Rosenberg. But before the debut anti
Semites learned that she was of Jew
ish origin That was enough to pre-
pare a reception for her of the kind
that only barbarians and anti-Semites
can prepare / can do no better than
to give you description of that recep-
ton by A. Schwarzfeld, editor of the
Oldest Jewish Romanian journal "Egal-
itatea" He gives the atmosphere
wonderfully WELL You can Judge for
yourself. Mr.. Schwarzfeld writes:
1T is Saturday evening at the Ma
tional Theatre of Jassey.
THE curtain rises. At one corner
of the stage stands the young de-
butante, young pretty, eager and ready
to begin. In the other corner stands
an old artist who is to support her.
Suddenly kissing, whistling and deaf
ening applause fiji the house, Tsss,
tsss, bravo, hurrah, From hundreds
of throats there are manifestations of
sympathy and good wishes. From tens
of throats ugly shrieks and exclama-
lions of senselessness and savage
hatred. Part of the audience is out
ragged, another part revolts and a third

10, the certain falls! A moment of
rest and quiet, But only moment.
Soon the monsters begin their hor-
rible noises once more. The second
curtain falls and then follows the AS,
bestos. A sign that the enemies of the
debutante have conquered. The au-
dience remains for while, to see, to
hear OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
The whistling and kissing begins again,
Not as strongly, as widely as before,
but ugly enough From the boxes and
from the stalls the people call in dis
gust. For shame" AS the house be.

her real name was Rosenberg. The
rumor incensed the disciples of Cuza
and they swore that the stage of the
National Theatre, on which a Polish
artist scores regularly, where plays
taken from other tongues, and where
a converted Jew appears regularly, that
stage shall not be defled by the debut
of a Jewess. They tried to prevent
it by threats, by appeals to the author
tiles and finally decided to rely on the
indifference of the police. Now they
are congratulating themselves in the
conviction that Roumania has no other
master, knows no other will and no
other director except that dictated by
Cuza-and his satellites. But we are
desirious of knowing in what country
do artists bear stamp, an insignia?
Is there a stage in the world where
Jews do not have their artistic tri-
umphs? Who does not know the
glorious name of Rachael? Who has
not admired Sarah Bernhard, after
once seeing her? Whether it be Rus
sia, Germany, Austria, Holland, Bel
GUM, or France, Jews have been adj
mired for their talent. Has any one
forgotten Somewhat, the erstwhile
tailor apprentice who held forth for so
many years in the Burgtheatre of Wen
ma? Why do hundreds of Roumanians
run to admire Rosenthal, Huberman
or Greenfield for their music? They
are all Jews. Why is the world proud
of the name Rubenstein? Even Rou-
mania has given talented artists to
the yorld, many of them Jews. Still
Roumania is the only country where
a Jew cannot appear on the national
stage.
How much ugliness. how soulless
one has to be to mistreat a child of
art so grossly! Yes. Roumainia for
the Roumanians- that is for the cuzas
and their like"
