RIGOLETTO REPLACES CARMEN
Nine. Barrientos Wins Fresh Plaudits--
Farrar Unable 10 Sing.

Geraldine Farrar found herself uneS-
pectedly hoarse yesterday morning, and
at 10 o'clock decided that she would
be unable to sing Carmen" In the sf-
.ernoon. Nine Bsrrientos was sp-
pesled to. and although she had sp-
peared In LA Sonnambuls" the night
before, consented TO be Gilda in "Rigo-
letto." Wholly fresh and unwearied,
she took the part with her accustomed
skill, and won much applause.
Caruso was not at his best yesterday.
His Donna mobile" lacked something
Of It's usual effectiveness. and in the
quartet he forced his voice. To make
matters worse, he pricked his finger
while playing with Maddalena. and
fretted so much over the incident that
the audience laughed, none too con-
sderstely.
De Lucs acted and sang Rigoletto
splendidly, and Rothier made e very
good Sparafuc!le. Mr.. Polacco con-
Quoted
Amato replaced De Luca In the even
ing, when aida" was performed.
