was a long time before that feeling wore off. And then the acting wor- rfed me. On the Grand Opera stage a few conventional gestures suffice, as long as one is careful to sing the mu- sic in accord with the tempt of the conductor. But a great deal more is expected of one in light opera, and the action and the dialogue are quite as important factor as the music I think it is a, splendid training and one that every young singer Should have before attempting a flight in Grand Opera I began my career as a, con cert singer and then passed to the operatic stage without any prelimin- ary study. The result was that I had to find my way almost unaided, for stage management on the Grand Opera stage is only an apology for the name. All this is so different in comic opera, where the stage manager watches every member of the com pany. If there is the slightest rnishap and everything does not work with clock work precision, a rehearsal is gone over and over again until per to chance. At the Metropolitan Opera House I have frequently been. called upon at 5 o'clock in the afternoon to sing an important role Aon the same evening without a, stage 'reh hearsal. I remember singing in Martha once with Miss Abott when she had to de- pend absolutely on Caruso for the words of the music in the last act"

PARK THEATRE
(By the Park Press Agent.)
THE TAxI GIRLS.

, The trials and nibulations of two stranded American actors form the plot of "In Mexico, a bully good two act musical farcietta, with which Taxi Girls, another Hurtig show. will entertain the patrons of the Park Theatre for three days beginning Thursday, April 24. The story is a simple, but most delightful one. The two Thespians are absolutely bare of funds and expect no immediate change in their ddsastrous position. The en- tire atmosphere of the surroundings lends itself to endless hi1arity.
 A good looking chorus, we'll voiced and graceful in the various dancing ensembles will be much in evidence. The particular feature is the vaude- vile feast of several acts, headed by the Farrell Taylor Trio, and including Wooley and Woods, Ward and Boh1- man, the Senan Duo, Ida Bayton and the Morin Sisters.

MERCEDES BIG
 MYSTERY AT POLES
Bedford & Winchester, Lambert & Ball, Henry & Frances
 Please Audience

Mercedes will keep the audiences guessing at Polls new vaudeville the atre this week. He is billed as "the musical enigma and that names fits. He is assisted by Mile. Stantone. who seats herself at a piano while Mercedes goes through the audience. He asks any person to suggest some musical selection, either popular or classical A person might say 1.-The Gaby Glide and mention the name in a low tone to the professor who still remains in the audience. The one who has sug- gested the tune will then shout to Mile. Stantone, Please play my se- lection-". She responds. You want me to play 1.-The Gaby Glide and she proceeds to play it. It is all very wonderful and mysterious. Last nights audience applauded loudly.
 Maud Lambert and Ernest Ball re- ce1ved flattering welcome. The folks in front demanded many encores and the singers retired when the tu- mutt was still on. MT. Ball, who has composed many popular songs, sang
 To Have, to Hold, to Love- in fine voice and also gave other lively num- bers. Miss Lambert, a talented art ist and a beautiful singer, was heard in several pleasing selections.
 Laughter ruled while Bedford and Winchester were the stage. They have a burlesque juggling act that is cOrker. After performing many jug gling feats one Of the team starts the merriment by putting a fork in his mouth and then trying to catch in the fork, apples thrown from the audience The fruit generally smashes on his head. As a grand climax he catches loaves of bread and carrotts on the stage. This act is what stage people call a riot.
 Just Nonsense is the title Of the skit given by Carl Henry and Nellie Frances and it is very appropriate. Henry is a good comedian and his wit ticisms kept the people in good hum or. His partner makes g. good foil for him..
 McMahon's Pullman Porter Maids have a fair act. Ned Norton is good. The finale showing the rear of a nov ing train brought considerable ap- plause last night
 Ward & Weber are seen in a clever dancing skit. They introduce a num- Der Of new steps and their effort is we'll ged and costumed.
 Lima Pantzer, a pretty girl, who does many daring tricks on the wire, made a hit last night.
 s'The Indian Girls Revenge" and ''The Five Bachelors are seen and heard in the talking pictures.

THE PLAZA

It is indeed happy collection of artistic acts which have been brought together in the Plaza theatre this week to continue the nirth which has been consistently maintained at that playhouse during the vaudeville reign. And that there is an intense appeal ing interest to the acts is proven by the fact that many unable to secure seats willingly stood up during act after act without apparent concern at their discomfort.
 The Halkings. novelty shadowgraph- CTS, startedA the ball rolling by knock ing a home run and cleaning with the bases full. They left the field to pretty and winsome Irene Meyers who reached home also without error. The next act up was Kelso and Leigh ton. This act although of a talky na- ture and with two strikes called, nav- ertheless reached the home plate with plenty of time to spare.
 As a, pinch hitter Frank Howard more than fulfilled his opportune mo- ment. The next batters up were the Georgia Trio. What this bIackface trio did not do is not worth talking about From first to the home plate they kidded and sang themselves in to favor with the bleachers and the rest of the fans.
 But the big applause event of the game were The Colonial Montrose Troupe of eight musical acrobats from the New York Hippodrome. They swatted just hard enough to give them a, percentage of 1,COO and that is sure going some in the vaudeville league.
 The pictures also found favor with the fanlets The house was capacity filled as is the custom at the Plaza, and it will more than likely prevail for the balance of this week.

SEAT SALE FOR "CREATION" BE
 GINS THURSDAY AT STEINERTS

Active and associate members of the Bridgeport Oratorio Society may se- lect their seats for the coming produc- ton of '"The Crea tion'' beginning next Thursday. The sale will be held at Steinert's and will be made public next Saturday. More interest is daily becoming manifest in the concert and it is the prediction of critics that this years rendition will be one of the finest ever achieved by a New Eng land chorus.
 In comparison with the society's pro- duction of last year there is greater opportunity for results as the music of t'The Creation is not as difficult as that of ':EIijah'' and offers greater harmonic possibilities. Director Wood man has utilized to the utmost these advantages with his chorus and the result is indeed pleasing.
 To use the terse and expressive words of one of the committee heads, 'Ethe production of The Creation is going to be the one grand musical event of the season in Bridgeport so- ciety.'' From all accounts this seems to be the opinion of most people in terested in the Oratorio and music in general.

Henrietta Wakefield, who will sing the role of Alan a Dale in the revival of Robin Hood'' at the Park Thea tre on April 30, is taking her first plunge in comic opera. For five years Miss Wakefield was one of the leadin g contraltos at the Metropolitan Opera House and she refused to renew her contract with this season so that she could join Bessie Abott in the produc- ton of Reginald De Koven's opera. Miss. Wakefield and Miss Abott were firm friends during the time that they were both members of the Metropoli- tan.
 My friends were mortified when I declared my intention of singing in comic opera said Miss Wakefield. ''But I have never regretted the step. At first I found it quite difficult and the chief obstacle was the dialogue. Every time finished a, solo and had to speak to one of the other artists I became frightful1y self conscious. It

FOX'S LYRIC THEATRE

For the Spring-tide festival which is being celebrated at the Fox Lyric theatre this week the entrance, foyer and interior with painting and a pro- fusion of foliage and flower has been transformed into a bower of bright ness and a veritable grove of pleasure. On the initial serni-weekly bill the of fering is indeed varied, comprising musical novelties, monologue, tabloid drama, vocal, dancing, and acrobatic a cts, and a renewal of the Kinemacol- or pictures, which in studies of the flora and fauna, travels in Switzer- land, and dramas of the far west. bring one close to nature and finger long in the storehouse of memory.
 For the vaudeville end the Walter Lawrence players in the Natures Noblemen's present the best sketch that has been given in Bridgeport in months. Arthur Cogliser plays the part of Lincoln and looks the part to perfection. There is a beautiful story woven around. the great ennancipa tor and the other four characters, includ- ing a. Southern Colonel, his daughter, Bradford, the book store man, and a coIored servant are delightfully."- play ed. The little drama created a pro- found impression and received many encores.
 Josephine Davis, just as chipper and full of Jamaica as she was twenty years ago, when but a child, sang her self into favor with the big audiences.
 Williams and Rankin do not carry a stage full of instruments but what they do handle is filled with melody and music and they made the biggest kind of a hit. The Wally Trio with their comedy and clever acrobatic work made a great closer for an all star bill Lyons and Cullen give little bit of everything and do it we'll George Yeomans is back fresh from a long engagement on the Western stand with a bright, refreshing monohogue.
