should we have references to them in
the text and at least one musical quo
tation which, it might be said, became
intelligible only If one stood on his
head? Why give us Stephen c. Fos-
ter's "Dooda. dooda da" upside down -?
What strange conception filled the
minds of the librettists when they
wrote the bewilderng reference to
"Old Dog Tray which the miners sang
while pounding rhythmically on the
tables with their fists, "1l mio cano,
dopo tanto mi ravisera ?' C"My dog,
will he recognize me after so long
time ?")-that is what Jake Wallace
sang when he made Jim Larkins home
sick! This tune was bit of Indian
melody which we were told Signor Puc-
cini had incorporated in it's score. If
so the Indian who contributed it was
familiar with Denza's "Funiculi funi-
cula."
On December %, 1910, Humperdinck's
"konlgskinder" had its first perform
ance on any stage at the Metropolitan
Opera House under the direction of AL
fred Hertz and the supervision Of the
composer.
Though the performance was what
the Germans would call an Urauffiihr-
ung, there were few elements of novel
ty in this opera. New Workers had
known it, or known of it, for twelve
years as spoken play, with incidental
music. and it's overture and two or
chestral interludes had figured in their
concert rooms for about the same
length of time. 1t was so near an opera
in spirit and the musical investiture
which Humperdinck had given it, how
ever, that its complete translation was
inevitable, and after Herr Humperdnck
had visited New York to witness the
triumph Of "Hanse und Gretel' he
gladly accepted commission to make
the operate version and give the right
of first performance to the Metropoli-
tan companion. 1t was Mr.. Dippels
plan that the opera should first be
performed in an English version, but
as have explained elsewhere, the need
Of hurry in order to save the privilege
of world premiere led to retention
of the original language, and to the
best of my memory it has had no Eng

CRITICS DIVIDE
AS TO FOCH'S
PURPOSE
SOME THINK HE is TRYING TO
BREAK UP GREAT RETREAT

London, Aug. 24.-The ultimate aim
of the strategic plan which Foch is
working out in the present series of
battles is the subject of much specu-
lation both in London and in Paris.
Military experts are broadly divided
into two camps.
Some believe Foch is striking a
number of hammer blows to weaken
the enemy numerically, and as regards
positions and morale, preparatory to
decisive blow at some absolutely vital
spot.
Others think Foch is endeavoring
to disorganize what is really great
German retreat or an intention to re-
tract on large sectors, being content
to reap the rich fruits of this dis
organization in his hauls of prisoners
and materials and allow later results
TO guide him in the matter of more
decisive action this year.
