ard Strauss and begotten by Oscar Wilde.
The season was less than month DID,
however, when another aspirant for the
mingled roses and pentential weeds of
Anatole Frances heroine appeared on the
scene. This was Miss Carmen Melis (whose
name should have justified her art), who
said that she wanted to show what she
could do with That's, and could not see why
the part should be held in trust by any
singer. Miss Garden disposed of the pre-
sumptuous newcomer in short order by in
. forming Mr.. Hammerstein (of course.
through that favorite medium of commune
cation between artists and managers, the
newspapers) that the moment any singer
other than she sang the part she would
walk out Of the theatre The opera was
sung six times in 1909'10, but Miss Garden
remained the only That's known to New
York until November 25, 1918, when Miss
Lois Ewcll appeared in the part in the
Century Theatre. Miss Farrar threw her
garments into the ring at the Metropolitan
Opera House on February 16, 1917 Once
again in this season Mr.. Hammerstein
tempted the fates as embodied in the re-
doubtable Scottish woman. He asked her
Notre Dame" in its original form-that is,
with a man singer in the part of jean She
gave her consent and even said that she
would buy box and witness the perform
ance; but when Mr.. Devries made a sue
cess in the part Miss Garden exacted and
obtained apology from her manager.
In the moment of Miss Gardens triumph
in the "Thais" affair members OF the jour
nalistic areopagus became involved in the
quarrel The story had gone out among
the gossips OF the press that Mr.. Hammer
stein had been paid to offer the delectable
privilege in controversy to Miss Cavalieri
"rhe New York Press" sent two reporters
to the manager who asked him if the story
was true. Mr.. Hammerstein elected them
from his Office and used language in letter
to the managing editor of the paper which
was highly reprehensble in him and highly
derogatory to the reporters. Thereupon
the two reporters, accompanied by their

brought him to his present predicament
Whether he is sincere victim of his own
delusions or an opirionated doctrinare in
capable of viewing the present situation in
the light of present facts is immaterial to
us in our hour of emergency. We do know
that men of his party, such as Spargo or
Upton Sinclair, men as loyal to their class
and ideals as he, men his mental EQUALS
and even his intellectual superiors have
found the dangers confronting the world
sufficiently imminent to bring them shoul-
der to shoulder with those whom they for
merly opposed, in order to safeguard the
principles of liberty that are common to
all subdivisions of democracy In doing
this these Socialists have not recanted one
clause of their faith in socialism,; they
have not apostasized or deserted They
have simply realized that every form of in
dividual freedom, as distinguished from
dynastic and bureaucratic autocracy is at
stake in the struggle now going on, and have
sunk their minor differences in the cause

be that he, like Mrs. Stokes, prefers the
role of a martyr, with all it's satisfactions

Of common sense. Or it may be that, con-
iident in his superior wisdom, Debs looks
pityingly down the nation and, more In
sorrow than in anger, awaits the day when
some hundred million citizens will come

a time when thousands of Americans are
making the supreme sacrifice in vindica-
tion Of democratic government and the
supremacy of law founded on justice"
'tThe Seattle Post-Intelligencer" pre-
sents an interesting review of the Debs
conviction, pointing out the place Debs
holds among American radical politi-
clans:
History will attach more Importance to
the conviction of Eugene V. Debs than the
facts of the incident warrant for Debs to-
uay Is more a man or record than of real
ity. Thrice a candidate for the residency,
lecturer and a writer, he possesses all
the outward semblances of national char
acter, whereas in reality he is and has
been for years hardly more than a figure
head even in the Socialist party. His re-
current candidacy for the Presidency was,
of course, nothing more than a matter of
form, in which he served as means of
taking q census Of the party, which found
its actual leadership in other men, such as
Spargo, Hillqut, Berger. ct al.
"The development Of Debs from a loco
motive fireman to the titular head OF
party Of protest, with brief excursion
into the realms Of practical politics and
oficeholding, would be an interesting topic
in moro leisurely times At present, how
ever, we have only the time and the tenn

IN his prospectus Mr.. Hammerstein spe.

and "Grlselidis," by Massanet, and "prin.

all OF them except "Griselids" In the list
which he was less specifically bound to per-
form were Massenet's "Manon," Bizet's

"Rlgoletto,' between December IA and Janu-
ary II, which was the period of her en-

the chief deficiency in his forces was in the
womens contingent. This was measurablv

why Mr.. Hammerstein
w CHANGED His Mind

The. reason of his subsequent change of
mind is not far to seek, nor need We attach
any more Importance to his broken pur-
pose than Jove is said to do to lovers per
juries. Mr. Hammerstein would not have
thought Of producing "Salome" if it had
not been for the opportunity which it gave
for that association to which most that
made appeal to his public was due. The
curiosity which was potent enough to fill
his theatre at doubled prices of admission
was directed not to the play of Wilde, not
to the musical investiture of that play by
Richard Strauss, but to Mary Garden, and
to her chiefly because of the lascivious
dance. Mr.. Conried had felt the public
pulse and renounced his project with but
little show of unwillngness. There was
talk by him and the directors of his COM
pany of transferring the performances to
another theatre; but it dribbled away So

Garden at once made vigorous protest
against the assignment of a part which she
had created in America to Miss Cavalieri.
Both singers had appeared in the opera in
Paris, Miss Cavalieri having been the
heroine at it's most recent revival there:
but the lady who was born in Scotland and
brought up in the United States was of the
opinion that an italian lady brought up in
Europe would not properly represent q
courtesan of ancient Alexandria as con-
ceived by group of French authors Miss
Garden therefore promptly hired LAWYER
to protect her monopoly Of the privilege Of
displaying her physical charms with the
scantiest garments allowable to the public
gaze. Mr. Hammerstein had covenanted with
Miss Cavalieri (and the public by announce

the newspapers. Miss Garden served
notice on her manager that she had sum
marily severed her connection with his COM
pany. The manager capitulated without
more ado. Miss Cavaicr asked that the
opera be stricken from her list in letter
which was printed on the morning of the
day when the opera was repeated with Miss
Garden in the character of the Alexandrian
woman who had lived a life of harotry
and died the death of saint She renewed
her contract with Mr.. Hammerstcin, who
agreed that thenceforth as long as she was
engaged by him one but she should APP

her consent in writing.

by Maurice Lena. It is quaint and low
able tale. The mixture of devotion and
the arts Characteristic of the monastc life
of the Middle Ages provided an unusual
but nevertheless inviting background for an
opera. Its obvious drawback lay in the
fact that it afforded no opportunity for the
introduction Of the female voice, for there
was no way in which the element of love
between man and woman, which has been
the most pervasive motive for dramatic
writing since the art began, could be in

The device might have added desirable

sense of the ingenious pathos Of the story

affecting note of sincerity, which provides
potent charm in the medieval tale, was
turned INTO q dissonant note by the ladys
silly by-play during M. Renauds touching
recital of the legend of the sage bush, which
is one of the gems Of the score. The first
impression created in me by the music was
that it was more ingenious than inspired.
1t suggested an exaggerated eclecticism
ranging from the modern French to the
ancient ecclesiastical styles with somewhat
abrupt transitions from one style to an
other.
On January 10, 1909, Mr.. Hammerstein

that he had engaged Lima Cavalieri for his

physical charms than artistic, had been

"Salome" was in preparation at the Man

weeks and that he had enlisted Miss

SSCamson ct Dalila"
~ Proves Its Dramatic Vitality

production of historical interest was
that of Samson ct Dalila," on November
l9. The music of this opera was familiar
to the New York public from frequent ner-
formances in concert style since its first
production sixteen years before by the
Oratorio Society. Once within this period
an attempt had been made to give it dra-
matte representation. This was on Febru-
airy 8, 1895, when it was brought forward
at the Metropolitan Opera House for the
purpose Of displaying the physical and vo-
cal strenuousness Of Signor Tamagno.
There were hopes then that the opera might
be added to the repertory Of the lyric play
house in Broadway, but they went down
with the ruins of Dagon's temple in the
last act. Mr.. Hammersteins performance
showed that despite the predomnantly ora
torio character of much of it's music the
work has considerable dramatic vitality.
and since its revival at the Metropolitan
Opera House, in the season of 1915-I6, it
has remained in the effective repertory Of
that establishment, though largely through
the agency of Signor Caruso.
The first real novelty of the season was
lie Jongleur de Notre Dame" which had
its first performance in America on No
vember 27, 1908. The old tradition of the
monk, who in his youth had been juggler
and who, while his artistic companions
were practising their arts within the walls
of the monastery, sought to do honor to
the Virgin Mother by performing his
mountebank tricks in secret before her al
tar, was put into shape for M. Massenet
