FAMILY TELEPHONE
ORGANIZATION

Modern conditions have
brought about the need for
what might be called a long
distance telephone organiza-
tion of the family. when
in doubt. telephone is an
axiom that ought to be i'm
pressed upon every member
Of tho family going on a
journey. or to live at a dis
tance. The mother can reach
her children at school. and
children should be required
to telephone home occas-
ionaIly. When husband or
wife set out on a journey a
telephone itinerary should be
iotted down and left behind.
Members of the family
travelling should not be con-
tent with providing means by
which those left at home
may reach them quickly. but
should communicate with
the home frequently. and
particularly when there is
bad weather. transportation
delay. disturbance of public
order, or any other unusual
condition where the traveller
happens to be. Bad news
flies fast, and is magnifed by
distance. These tsnngsc cause
apprehension at home.
No other mcdiumconveys
the personal assurance land
causes such peace of.mind
asthe long distance telephone
talk can give.

MUSIC
Miss Gerhardt'S Recital.

IT is much easier to set the pegs high
and sing the praises of Miss Elena Ger
hardt, who gave her second song-recital in
Carnegie Hall yesterday afternoon, than TO
sit in judgment on her qualities and try TO
tell a public (Which is after all, nine-tenths
careless and blown about by the winds of
whims) I'm what respect she is a fine artist
and in what she Is not the supreme creature
that industrious advertising agents would
have her appear TO be. Miss Gerhardt Is a
supremely excellent artist in'many respects.
She disclosed that IN nearly everything that
sne did yesterday; but she also disclosed
(and 1t was an amiable trait, II not
an artistic) that sometimes her tempera-
ment got the better of her taste and

in the opinion of the critical portion OF
her judgme To "temperament'-let the
word he impressed deeply upon the
minds OF the readers OF newspapers-wlll
be attributed I'm the future nine-tenths Of
all the sins against vocal virtue until
happily sanity shall again return to art.
In art the reins must always be kept upon
passion: that is an axiom that is so old
that IL this were not a newspaper age In
literature II would be a shame to repeat
II. But nowadays every extravaganza Is
lauded and go yesterday, when Miss
Gerhardt, In her excess of desire TO express
emotion, forced her beautiful voice out OF
tune In Schumann's "Ich grolle niCht, y

grieved 1t Is a beautiful old lesson which
Sir Walter Raleigh taught. but which so

Passions are Iikened best 10 floods and
streams: The shallow murmur, but the
deep are dumb.
We would not have liked to have Miss
Gerhsrdt dumb at the climax OF Schu-
mann's song yesterday; we did wish she
had not tried to express passion by shrieks
which were out Of tune.
But the fault which we have deplored Is
not common with Miss Gerhardt. on the con-
trary. she has an admirable conception Of
the balance between poetical and musical
values-she declaims musically In the first
instance and POLITICALLY In the second. and
the chief charm OF her singing Oet us cite

and the two songs OF Iiszt, Die Fre.-

wedding which she made Of the words and
music-a wedding I'm which her lovely voice

which Miss Hegner plays her accompani.

advantage than before, and was well
coined with more sympathetic apprecia-

Mile. Vallandri sang with purity or
tone as Louise and acted with much VI
vacity. Mile. D'Alvarez and Francis
Combe supported her vigorously as
Louise's mother and father, while Jean
Auber and Mile. Orchanstl were excel

Among the subordinate characters Louise
Merlin's work was conspicuously good.

A TosCANINI TRIUMPH
Brings Out Best of Tristan und
Isolde at the Metropolitan.

Nothing has more truly graoed the ad-
ministration of Mr.. Gatu-Casazza at the
METROPOLITAN Opera House than the per
formance OF wagner's Tristan und Isolde"
performed under the baton OF Arturo Tos-
canini Tho fourth OF this seasons per-
formances was given last night. and once
again Sgnor Toscaniri gave renewed
cause for wonder at the genius displayed
by him in bringing out tho glories OF tho
supreme masterpiece OF Gcrmanic opera.
Especially fine was he in the love music
o, the second act. IN which the orchestra
proclaimed in splendid sorority, yet with
marvellous nuance, the surge Of passion
and OF melody.
Tho cast was the same as at tho pre-
yious performance, with Nine. GadsH re-
peatng her carefully thought out and adj
mirably sung impersonation OF the Irish
princess and Mr.. Burrian his Tristan. the
best enactment OF this figure that the lyric
stage at present possesses. Nine. Matte
nauer as Brangane; Mr.. Well as kur-
wenaI and Mr.. Griswod as King Mark
were, as ever. admirable. The audience
was n large one.

WEBERFIELDS AUCTION
Seats for First Night To Be Bid
for by 10000.

According TO a statement received from
the offices OF Weber & Fields last night,
ten thousand persons have applied for
seats for the opening performance of the
Jubilee company at the Broadway Theatre
on February 8 In order to be fair 10
all friends and strangers alike. a public
auction OF the seats will be held at the
Broadway Theatre on Thursday afternoon.
February I. at $3.50 o'clock According
to the announcement. seats will range in
price from 81 to s.. and the management
respectfully asks that no attempt he made

New York. They can take their chance OF
obtaining from him such locations az may
not be disposed Of at the public sale, or
can have their money refunded"
Lew Fields. speaking for Mr.. Weber and
himself. said:
We have considered every possible
method 10 do away with an auction sale
Of seats for this opening performance of
the Jubilee.
AT the auction to be held We dssire
that there be no attempt on the part of
our friends to make exorbitant bids for
location This is not a money making
scheme in any particular. II every seat
is sold ut the auction at the regular box
office prices, the better we will be salts
fed Our sole Idea is TO give avery one
an equal chance. This is not a new de-
narture Seats FOR tho ODeninu nights at
the Weber & Fields Music Hall were al
ways disposed OF by auction sale, and
persons who could not obtain seats for
those opening nights were glad enough to
attend the subsequent performances Mr.
Weber and ! both trust It will be the same
now"
