There was much to arouse question

to peace in last nights performance.
LA Muette de Portlci' in these days Is

much OF the spice OF life is spread upon
1t in the presentation. Last evenings
performance was earneet n filled with
honorable endeavor. but its achievement
generally fell short OF supreme salts

pointing as Feneiid. She exhibited a
vast amount OF pantOmime. but its
graphic significance seemed 10 he UNI

Georgi Mlchailoff did his share toward
getting sympathy for her. but she did
precious little for herself. She sang
generally In tune, and her coloraturc

have been what made London happy.
Giovanni Zenatello was one time a
hero of the Manhattan stage. and there
is still something OF the old courageous
assault of every phrase. the same as
surance IN movement and the same con-

the voice which used 10 arouse the agi-

was not noted last evening. Zenatello
sang pretty nearly always in tune. and
he occasionally rounded out a phrase
with something like art. but his Mas

ward indications OF a snort reign.
Mr.. Chalmers did well all hat he had
