Lovers OF Music Enjoy
Excellent Concert by Trio
of Artists in Wallace Hall

Music-loyers who braved the heat
last night enjoyed a rare treat in
Wallace Hall. It was the occasion of
a Joint concert by Harry Rowe Shell
ley, Nina Won Walther, cortralto,
and Edith Davies Jones. harpist
Mr.. Shelley presided at the piano,
bringing out all Of the coloring and
beauty of the accomplishments.
Miss Jones suffered an accident
that married the rendition OF her first
number slightly, but gave the audi
enee glimpse of her Virtuosity.
While playing a transcription OF the
Welsh air Men of Harleck," three
harp strings snapped. The dangling
strings interfered with the rapid
movement required in the number.
In the numbers allotted to her fol-
lowing this Miss Jones displayed her
command of the instrument fully.
Especially was this so In her playing
of Godard's Berceuse. Without ac-
compartment, she presented Themes
"Rustling Leaves" in a manner that
produced the greatest enthusiasm on
the part of the audience.
Miss Won Walther displayed a voice
of wide range and beautiful quality.
Her dramatic diction was best dis
played in Mr.. Shelley's setting of
Kipling's Follow Me One" The
concert closed with the contralto
aria from I'll Trovatore," by Miss
Won Walther, accompanied by Mr..
Shelley and Miss Jones.

The Edison kineophone, or talking
picture machine is attracting lots Of
attention at Olympic Park this week,
where it Is being shown In its per-
fected state for the first time in the
State of New Jersey. Persons visit
ing the opera house at the park sit in
amazement as they see a picture pro-
jected on the screen, and then when
the performer opens his lips to talk
the spoken words apparently issue
right from the screen.
As a matter of fact, the spoken
words do come through the screen
from large talking machine behind
1t. but so perfect is the synchroniza-
ton of the talking and picture ma
chimes that it seems as if the persons
in the pictures are doing the talking
or playing the music, as the case
may be.
The week of June 1 marks two i'm
portant events in the phenomenally
successful career of To-day" that
vital and vivid play of modern life
which has achieved the enviable dis
tinction of being the drama longest
on the New York stage this season.
One event is that the month of brides
inaugurates not only the ninth con-
secutive month of To-day" on Broad
way, but it also observes the begin
ming of the last quarter in "Today's"
race to it's Booth performance in New
York; the 275th has been reached
Friday night.
E. H. Sothern and Julia Marlowe
(Mrs. Sothern) sailed for England.
yesterday on the Mauretania.
Before leaving they announced that
they would not play during the COM
ing season. but would return to
America next year and make their
farewell tour in Shakespearean roper
toire The plays In which they will
appear are Hamlet" Romeo and
| Juliet" Macbeth" LAS You Like
It." 1.-THE Tanning of the Shrew' and
1.-THE Merchant of Venice"
Mrs. Sothern is much improved in
| health, and after a years complete
rest, it is promised that she will be
completely recovered. Mrs. Sothern
was compelled to give up the stage
last December while playing with Mr..
Sothern in Los Angeles.
They will spend the summer in
England and the winter in the south
of France.
After the fact of its unqualified sue
| cess, the most interesting thing about
the London production of Potash &
| Perlmutter' is the general assump-
ton on the part of the London re-
viewers that Montague Glass is the
author of the play as well as of the
stories out Of which the play was
| fashioned. Over here the authorship
of the play has been kept a secret,
Mr. Glass himself being popularity
credited with only partial response
| bility for the piece that has had SO
long and so prosperous a run at
Cohan's Theatre. In so far as there
has been any direct limiting, it has
| pointed to Charles Klein. In London,
however, every one refers to Mr..
Glass as the playwright, and one re-
viewer says he has constructed it out
of This amusing and keenly observed
Potash and Perlmutter" sketches
which have appeared with much sue
cess in one of the New York papers.

CURTAIN CALLS

laughter greeted the London premiere.
and the papers next day spoke with
all praise of the company.
While it is generally agreed by the
English reviewers that the author Of
the play has written a silly story, the
genuineness of the characterization is
warmly applauded, and Augustus
Yorke and Robert Bennard are lauded
to the skies for their work as Potash
and Perlmutter.
