before the Court that she was not

CARUSO And AIDA
IN 'MANON LESCAUT'
Puccini's Opera Also Calls for
Temperance Of Scotti as
Lescaut.

At the Metropolitan Opera House last
evening the third subscription audience
Of the season was permitted to hear Puc-
cini's "Manon Lescaut." This opera was
for long period relegated to obscurity
but under the direction OF Mr. Toscanini
II attained q tolerable measure Of popu-
larlty. albeit II never gained a. much
favor as Massenet's more mellfiuous
work on the same story.
II has now become so familiar to Met
ropolitan audiences that nothing need be
said about II. Mr.. Gatti-Casazza In
tended to bring Lucrezia Bori back to
the scene Of her triumphs AZ the heroine.
but while the performance Of last eve
ming was in progress the charming young
Spaniard was on her way to Italy In
search OF further recuperation for her
voice
The role OF ndnon was therefore en-
trusted to Nine. Frances Aida. who had
sung II frequently here and whose i'm
personation IL consequently well known.
II goes almost without saying that there
can be but one Chetdlier des Gricur. as
there Is but one Caruso. who brings to
the part some of the finest qualities
OF his art. Lescdut Is likewise preempted
by Mr.. Scotti, whose delineation of the
soldier Ia accepted az standard.

been heard before. Gennaro Papi. re-
