LYDIA LOPOKOVA ''Carnava" Serge de Diaghleffs Ballet Russe, Park Theatre Wednesday, November 15

To one accustomed to American methods ef rekearsing dance groups for the stage, with the accompanying perspiratieia and profanity, the eper- atien Of Serge de Diagaaaea'H Bale! RuHse, at the Park theatre, Wednes- day, Ney. IS, is little short Of wierd.
 They don't really rehearse any of tseir pallets according to the Ameri- can ways Of doing .it,-they sit or atand around and dream them into being. This is in strict accord with the Russian temperament, which. as is well known, is dreamy. For in- stance, before the afternoon premiere Of ''Mephfsto Valse," the new ballet composed by premiere dancer Waslav Nijinsky, the dancers bropded aver it on the stage of the Manhattan Opera House practically ali night, while various professors and n,aestros de dance sat at intervals Tn tho orchestra, as far apart from each other as the space would permit, brooding over the produc with the intensity of yegis in seance, They seemed to be on very poor terms, for they rarely ex- changed words, Nij,nslSy, in particu- lar, was wrapped in the profoundest gloom, and several times seemed on the point ot ending 1t allt Now and then, however, he would execute a step, or issue an order in Q untitled voice, An atmosphere oe. medfta- ton and mysticism pervsaed the place. rfr k A reh earsal Is 9 queer thing anyway, hut sheaa rehearsala ot the Ballet Russo are the oueerest of then, all. 10 sta-t. one sasa Q forest of whiskers. The property man, whose name is Kemishoff, has a long cerise beard and a solemn young face. The beard looks rather new, If one can say such a thing. He probably has not owned it for more than five or six years
 Apart from this-or including it, if you will-he is g marvel Of property man.
 He has the stage laid out into Inn aginary squares, so that everything goes into the same place with great precision and no noise and hustle, These back stage engineers, however, become pretty well acquainted with American machinat,ons> in, the course of their sojourn through this country last year. Consequently, they have picked up some American ways, and others have been wished upon them. For instance, Igaboof Tssousky, first

LYRIC
1.-THE TRUTH"

Beginning Monday night, the policy of The Lyric theatre will revert to its old form of standard stock produc- tions, when Manager w. H. Isham will install the best organization ever seen at popular prices, opening with the famous NGrace George success, ''The Truth" as the opening play, which is briefly described as, a human. na- ture story of yesterday; today and to- morrow.
 As the old saying goes, The Truth will always prevail, and such is the case in this splendidly constructed Clyd6 Fitch drama of life. '"The Truth" is but story, but it is in every sense of the word. truthful and forceful stage story, with very im- pressive lesson attached
 MT. Isham has been very careful In his selection of players for the win ter stock season, and feels convinced that he has an all round company who O will give a performance of 'Ths Truth" which will equal any of the recspt dramatic productions as seen along Broadway.

He seems te be popular. AS this same stage hand phrased it, /Mike is 8 perfect bear around here"

 The stage commands are given in Russian, which is a peculiar tongue of agreeable sound, with many oddly Oriental infections, almost like Chi rese in spots.
