NEW PLAN TO NAME
N. Y. STATE JUDGES
State Bar Wants the Court
of Appeals to Fill
Vacancies.

Albany, March 26.-The New York
State Bar Association at session here
to-day adopted resolutions recommend
ing that the constitutional convention
make radical changes in the constitu-
tion as il affects the judiciary Prob
ably the most important change sought
is TO take away from the Governor the
power of appointing Supreme Court
and Court of Appeals judges in cases
Of vacancies. This the Bar AssOcla-
ton would have done by the Court Of
Appeals.
One resolution declared against
amending the constitution so as to pro
vide for the appointment Of all Justices
and Judges. The members OF the Court
Of Appeals should be elected, the reso-
luton asserted.
Among the more important changes
recommended were:
The appointment Of all justices OF
the Supreme Court by the CHIEF JUS
ticc Of the Court of Appeals, after the
expiration Of the terms of the present
incumbents
The election Of judges Of the Court
OF Appeals on separate ballots IN odd
years.

sion to be named by the Court OF Ap-
peals. .

"tAMORE" SUNG AGAIN
Montemezzi Opera Enjoyed by
Large Audience.

"L'Amore del Tire Re" was sung
again last night at the Metropolitan
Opera House, and the hearts OF all
who love the best IN opera were made
glad. The audience was a fine one, a
happy omen for the future success Of
this work; a work 40 sincere, so vital,
SO simple and direct in it's appeal, so
filed with melodic charm, that I
seems as If young Verdi is about
to appear in the form OF Italo Monte
mezzi, and new Alheri in that Of
Sem Benelli. Whatever the future may
bring forth, let us be thankful for
"L'Amore del Ire Re-"
The cast was the same as that which
has always appeared in the opera. Mr..
Ferrari-Fontana's Avito is a superb
impersonation, both vocally and dra-
matically; Miss Bori has made of Flora
n figure OF winsome pathos; Mr.. Didur
has steadily improved his Archibaldo
until it now rivals his Boris, and Mr..
Amato brings sincerity Of treatment
and his splendid voice to Msnfredo.
What Mr.. Toscannini brings out
from the score only poet can fttingly
describe.
