Opera
"Pelleas ct Melisande" at the
Lexington, With Mary Garden,
Draws Big Crowd

Delbrissy's Pelleas ct melisande was
sung last night at the Lexington
Theatre before an audience which
packed the house. Pclleas is not a
popular opera, but all those who love
it go to see it once. Miss Mary Gar
den, Of course, was Melisande. There
are those who dislike Miss Garden in
a portion of her repertory, and there
are those who dislike her in nearly
all her repertory but there are few
who do not recognize that her melis-
ande is creation, of genius. In it she
casts aside the mannerisums which at
times detract from her other imper-
sonations; gone are her stride her
semaphoring with her arms, there is
not gesture or a movement which is
not sincere. Her singing, if it NAV be
classed as such, is expressive and ap-
pealing Miss Garden is mistress of
tone, speech, however many murders
She may have committed against bel
cantro.
The Pelleas was Alfred Maguenat,
who sang it here last year. Mr. Ma
guenat is, Of course, not Jean Perrier.
ance, albeit one a little too much of
the earth. But the clarity of his enun-
ciation-that is virtue which many
greater signer might envy in him.
Louise Berat was superb as Gene
We've. Nine. Berat is, indeed, the
operate mother par excellence! The
Goland OF Auguste Bouillez was mod
erately successful, and the Arkcl of
Gustave Huberdeau is an old friend.
Mr.. Charlier conducted sympathct-
ically.
There is little more to be said about
"Pelleas ct Melisande" at this late day.
Its name is already craven upon the
walls of musics Pantheon and it's COM
poser has taken his eternal rest. 1t
never has been a popular opera and
there is no reason to believe it ever
will be. The story lacks will and defn-
tion of outline and the music is ex-
quisitely welded to it. Flesh and blood
in the characters, melody in the music,
are totally lacking. Yet it is work of
genius, and it will ever appeal to q
small number of musicians. It's score
will be called for in music libraries
even if the opera itself is never per-
formed.
"La Forza del Destino" was repeated
last night at the Metropolitan, with one
change in the cast, Mr.. Montesanto re-
placing Mr.. De Luca. The others ap-
pearing were Mr.. Caruso Miss Ponselle,
Miss Braslau, Mr.. Chalmers and Mr..
Mardones. Mr.. Papa conducted.

said Senator Jones, "therc was not

and, therefore, no quorum with which

The political expcdiency of acting

principal theme of debate, which was
marked by its vehemence At times
Senators spoke so loud that their
voices reverberated through the thick
doors of the conference room and
echoed through the corridors.
Advocates of the resolution argued
that the fortunes of the Democratic
party would be aided by favorable
action on the quail suffrage question
and said that II it was defeated future

Munich, Bavaria's capital and the
first large German city to fall under

is probably better known to Ameri-
cans and better liked by them than
any other city In Germany. 1t is
eminently the home of German art
For centuries the rulers were generous
patrons Of the sort Of culture in which
Americans are specially interested.
Within the memory of painters yet
living, American art students prefer
red the city to Paris for their training.
The literary tone Of Munich was al
ways superior. It was the first of the
great cities to give hearing and rec

rule. All the world knows OF its IA

The city owes its foundation to a
monastery, and when it passed from
the control of the churchly orders,
the secular rulers represented the
monk in its coat of arms, and that de-
vice has remained through about
eight centuries. Modern Munich was
created about 100 years ago by Louis
I, who built the museums and raised
the city to first rank in art. Archi-
tectural impulse was encouraged with
each succeeding reign, with the result
that building construction proceeded
along a we'll defined and systematic
course, producing effects in good taste

G. 0. P. COMMITTEES
Being ORGANIZED
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 5-Organi-
zation of the next house Of representa-
tives involving selection OF a floor
leader and a whip and the choosing of
committee chairmanships and assign
ments, was considered today by the
Republican committee on committees
at its first meeting since it's creation
at the party conference last week. The
work of the committee, on which each
state having a Republican delegation
in the next house is represented, prob
ably will not be completed before the
end Of the week.
Interest in the meeting of the COM
mittee centered about the selection of
a party floor leader. After the con-
ference last Thursday night, several
Republican representatives express
sed the belief that Representative
James r. Mann, of Illinois, although
defeated in the contest for speaker
ship by Representative Gillett, of Mas
sachusetts, had succeeded in obtain
ing ma jority Of the committee. The
Mann members of the committee are
expected to support Representative
Moore of Pennsylvania for floor lead
er, while Representative Longworth
of Ohio, probably will have the back
ing of the Gillette forces.

that no other ciyt has excelled. The
most elaborate of the public structures
represent a development of Renais-
sance styles, with variations in Rom
anesque, Gothic or classic forms, all of
them taking account of modern re-
quirements and materials, and pre-
senting in their adaptations a pic
turesque and substantial entity.
Americans who have visited Munich
left very comfortable there, and liked
to remain awhile rather than hurry
through.
Munich was originally walled town.
When it overlapped the walls and
they fell into disuse and gradually
disappeared, the portion originally
within them continued to be known as
the inner town. That part of the city
has been the scene Of much Of the re-
cent demonstration. The Karlsplatz
is one of the busy centers, just outside
of the inner town. Main lines of the
city's tramway system intersect
there. On the west side of the Karl
splatz stands the Courts of Justice
building, with a glass dome over the
central hall, and buildings for new
courts, all completed from twelve to
twenty-five years ago. Statuary and
other adornment grace the open space.
Through Karls Tor, on the east side Of
the plaza, are Neuhauser and kaufing-
er streets, one prolongation of the
other, leading through the inner town
to Marienplatz. The Academy of
