A Morbid Study
in Feminine jealousy

To portray the part of beautiful inno-
cent ingenue, deserted fiance. de-
voted. trusting but betrayed wife, or a
more grossly tricked grassy widow is COM
paratively easy TO an actress Of even
comparative ability. But to portray the
character of. n thoroughly reprehensibe
woman, malicious, persistently evil, and
to bring forth the pathetic appealing
tragedy of her own execrable misdoings-
this requires art And by this test,
Frances Starr proved herself an efficient,
a really great actress last night at the
Broad.
Miss Starr takes the unlovely. ungra-
cious, unpleasing role of Nine. Gabrielle
Janneiot in 1.-THE Secret by Henri Bern
Nine. Jannelot is the wife Of Constant
Jannelot, enacted with digniied restraint
by Montagu Love-a devoted, trusting
husband There is a sister, Marie. who
gives to Constant much joy. That any
one can give JOY to her husband arouses
In Gabrielle a bitter. vicious, malignant
jealousy. Pretending to be her friend,
Gabrielle, by her devices and lies, allen
ates the sister from her husband.
Throughout this play we are constantly
reminded of the old fable of the spider
and tho fly. Only while the spider fol-
lows its direct venomous instincts. Ga
hrielle, being woman, is indirect, subtle.
but eventually deadly nevertheless.
We have seen Frances Starr before. we
know that Frances Starr can enact
charming, engagingly lovely parts. To
see her create the character of this
woman, treacherous. scheming poisoned
by jealousy, determined upon the un-
happiness of every one, evokes-not con-
tempt of the character, but admiration
of the consummate ability of the actress.
In Miss Starr as the leading lady of
"The Secret" We again behold the art
of Belasoo and of, the Belasco training.
SO profound Is ones admiration for the

La Cioconda" With Caruso

The opera Is of the Verdi school and
the music is OF the sort which demands
fine singing throughout. Speaking of IT.,
recently. Mr.. Caruso said that II was one
Of the operas In which no amount OF good
acting could make up for poor singing.
According to the New York critics of
Mr.. Caruso is in fine voice this year. and
there is no need for him to act at all,
His voice alone is enough. Mr.. Amatos
Barnaba has also received high praise,
as a sinister and powerful piece Of work.
The opera deals with the complicated
love affairs and intrigues of two mem
bers Of the Inqulsition in Venice, in the
18th century. It is based on a play Of
Nicto Hugo, THE Tyrant OF Syracuse"
and Is full OF melodramatic happenings
and emotional crises. The composer, Pom
