CARUS0 SINGS JUST

SURPRISES PASSENGERS ON THE
PIER BY BURSTING INTO SONG
WHILE WAITING.

NEW 4ohk. Lee. 81 he paSSGu-
gers who arrived on La Lorraine to-
day, together with their friends, stood
spelIbound when the strains Of a Won
derful voice pitched in a low tone, sud-
denly rose from one corner of the pier,
and in its crescendo filled the long
pier. The song came from the throat
of Enrico Caruso, who was rendering
an imitation of the baritone Tittt
Ruffo. AS a crowd quickly gathered,
Caruso suddenly ceased. and then
laughed heartily.
Caruso, together with his brother
John, and some friends, had come
down to the French line pier to meet
a friend arriving from Rome.
While they were waiting for the GUS
toms examination. .Caruso. who was
in high spirits, was joking with every
one in the vicinity Suddenly. with an
expressive gesture. he exclaimed: AN,
now I will show how Titta Ruffo
sings"
1t was then that the passengers
gathered round. white the customs
officers ceased in their task Of search
ing baggage to listen to the strains.
Titta Ruffo is the highest priced bari
tone in the world. He and Caruso
command the same fabulous salary
for each appearance.
Just before leaving the pier Caruso
gave another imitation-that of the
train boys on the Pennsylvania rail-
road crying their wares. This, he said.
was the one thing in American life
which amused him most.
