JULIEN" Is A SOUL TRAGEDY

Special Gable to The American.
PARIS, June 2s.-I came away from
the dress rehearsal of Carpenter ,
Julien" shaking with emotion. The
last episode in the new work Of the
composer who evolved Louise" had
been tremendous in effect.
The tones in which Carpenter
had expressed the destruction Of 4
poets faith and dreams had been TOO
eloquent His harmonies. his discords
and his rhythms racked ones nerves.
And what they meant was a soul
tragedy.
The ultra modern men hereof the
Debussy, Florent Schmidt and Ravel
groups-smiled as they listened to
some parts Of the new opera" To
some 1t seemed as old as Richard
Wagner Nor were they wholly
wrong. For. though it is of striking
power and full of beauty. it was by
no means up to date"
Stopped to Copy No One.
Carpenter had. of course, not
stopped to copy either Wagner or the
Italian Veritists. To all he does he
gives his own distinctive character,
He gave it to Louise" his first sue
cess
He has put it into julien" Wag-
ner, Mascagni and. perhaps, also Ber-
lioz had been remembered in La
Vie du Poete" and were suggested
here and there. OF course, in julien"
And yet the work which thrilled the
audience at the Opera Comique a few
days ago was painfully personal
1t seemed the expression Of its Gre
ators very life. the appeal OF his I'M
happy, complex soul. the confession
Of his faith and doubt and dread.
There are literary parallels to the
case of Julien" in the Manfred" Of
Byron, the Faust" of Goethe and the
Heinrich Of Hauptmann. Those poems
all described the eternal tragedy Of
man, with his aspirations his ideals
and his impotence.
He who has flown so high, as thou
has flown,
Must perish If he once fall back TO
earth"
saws the Wise Woman to Haupt-
mann's Heinrich in The Sunken
Bell"
And at the outset Julien scars, rs
Heinrich scared. on the highway to
the sun.
In the opening act of Charpentier's
opera" or dramatic poem, the music
yoices-rather conventionally now
and then-the hero's idealism. by
slow degrees we And him sinking into
doubt For he soon loses the Louise
who inspires his dreams. Not the
mere workgirl of his early opera, but
a symbol, with the externals Of a
woman-his Muse. his Higher Self,
his Power his Dream.
When In the closing episode Of "Ju-
lien" the poet again finds--or thinks
he hnds-Louise, she has changed to
street walker, a trull pitiful
wreck, known to Montmartre as
"Casque d'Oignon." So in the final
movement of the Fantastic" the no
bility Of the leading theme, which
suggests Berlioz's love, Is changed to

said in my first review of the opera"
a lack of unity in the composers
style. But the construction of the
work is clear. 1t shows the tragedy
Of poets-and of humanity.

An hour perhaps Clare spent wandering up and
down the long aisles Of the store, admring, pricing,
absorbing facts that might serve to captvate the
fictitious Mr.. Winterhouse.
Suddenly she glanced at her little wrist watch, Civ
ing suppressed exclamation. "Oh-i it after
four? AT four was to meet Mr.. Winterhouse up
town. He is waiting now. What shall do"
"Can mademoisee not telephone?" suggested ia

concluded to the messenger
Lawson dropped into chair with feigned exhaus-
ton.
"Tired to DEATH" he sighed "St II look at it,
With hasty glance about, Clare noted that the
Office was in and that no could it
except Jacot.
"Coud you not bring the silver service in here for
inspection ~ she asked
Delighted" bowed Jacot "If mademoisee and
monsieur will make themselves at home here | am
sure it will not take long,
Jacot retired backward Instantly Clare was on
her knees opening the grip
"Move that cabinet beside the telephone booth out
just bit, Billy" she whispered quickly removing
the covering from mahogany box and placing it on
table 1t peculiar box with sort Of dial in
the front face, and Clare opened and shut it for
instant she closed what looked like two discs
OF spools of wire.
QUIETLY Lawson edged the cabinet out Clare
~ closed the box and moment later she placed it
carefully on the hoor leaving two wires exposed.
Footsteps down the aisle warned them that Jacot
and an assistant returning with the silver
service.
"Push the cabinet back BLY, whispered Glare
showing the wires out of sight. Il II finish when
you have turned down the silver service"
Lawson had moved the cabinet and restored the
status quo by lounging into the easy chair with a
half yawn Clare consumed several minutes urging
the merits of the silver service as compared with one
they had seen in London. Lawson parted
perhaps you would be interested in the new i'm

Again Jacot disappeared. Clare found the loose

wires and deftly cut in and attached them to the
wires of the telephone in the shadow of the cabinet
where they would not be observed.
The cloisonne satisfied Lawson even less than the
silver service Still, taking the cue from Clare that
her plan, whatever it was, had worked well so far,
he assumed an air Of cordality toward Jacot and
asked to call the next day.
As they arose to go, Lawson observed that Clare
had left her parasol in Before he could
hand it to her he caught fleeing frown and shake
Of her head She evidently intended to forget it,
'What do you make of the little FrenchmanY" he
asked when they had reached the waiting taxicab.
"ls he playing a fence is he on the square with

Il IN not guessing, she answered, @at least not un-

| II let you know If anything Develops"
That night Clare and Lawson sat comfortably chat
ting in obscure of the parlor at the Ritz
"I1ow did you get the cew" /" asked Lawson with
surprise and admiration
'.Never mind, Billy - there s Jacot, now. See 80
he is evidently looking for some one"
Just then Jacot caught sight of tastefully gowned
woman, obviously foreigner, who had been seated
alone in an alcove at the other end of the room.
AS he advanced toward her, she heSitantly re0Og
nized him. arose. and then received him with
diaity, extending jeweled hand.
As Clare studied the face Of the woman, it flashed
on her that something beneath the olive beauty
OF her complexion resembled that engmatlcal look In
the photograph Of La Ginevra Jacot himself was
evidently much taken with her. They chatted with
animation, and when he made his adieux, he bent so
low her hand that his lips almost touched the
rings on her fingers.
Follow Jacot, Billy whispered Clare. II don't
think it will lead to much, but there s no use taking
chances"
A moment later she wished she had not sent him
away. A stranger, in evening clothes Of pronounced
continental tone, sauntered through the lobby as if
seeking one, caught sight of the woman alone,
turned to the desk to recall card he had just given
the clerk, and made his way quickly to her side.
The greeting between the two left no doubt but
that the man was infatuated; and she, as they
talked, seemed utterly oblivious Of the gay
throng Of diners passing through the lobby.
Clare sauntered to the desk
"What, please, is that lady's name r.

1--WE never rehearse dangerous
scenes!
So says Darwin Karr, who
was nearly killed not so very
long ago, when he fell off a
horse. He knows what it feels
like to play the scary parts in
moving picture plays. If he were
vain sort of man he would
have worked an account of his
narrow escapes into a three
volume novel or "seven-day
wonder story. But as he is just
a mere man, with little time or
inclination to sing his own praises,
nothing much has been said Of
this side of his picture career.
Karr has done any number of
stunts which include deep-water
diving, leaps from high cliffs and
buildings, races with trains on
trestles, hanging from high places
by the finger nails and clinging
to a precipice by means of a
frail creeper, which might or
might not stand the test of his
weight. When / asked him where
he got the nerve" to take these
chances with Fate, Karr laughed
out loud and told me it wasn't so
difficult because they never re-
hearsed" this sort of scene.
You see," he said, "if we
don't know exactly what's COM
ing, we don't get SO nervous. But
IL we had to do the same hazard
GUS thing two or three times, we
might get cold feet"
"A player has to get hold of
the story first" he told me, "as
soon as he has been assigned to
new part. Then he has to
think up the costume for the
part and decide how many
changes will be necessary. After

them upon the grounds that the voters

sue. Wheeling bonds are rated very
highly and heretofore there has been
no difficulty experienced in selling
any bonds issued for Improvement
u this technically has held up the
sale Of the entire issue and has also
brought all street Improvement work
