Carlo Haclett Wins Triumph
At His Metropolitan Debut
By Grenville Vernon

"The Barber of Seville" was sung at
the Metropolitan Opera House last
night for the first time this season.
With one exception the cast was one
which has sung the old opera many
times before. Giuseppe De Luca was
the Figaro, and both vocally and his
ironically was as admirable as ever.

She knows how TO sing the music, but
her high tones were wofully deficient
and the coloratura passages went for
little. Perhaps she was afflicted with
cold. Pompilio Malatesta played DR..
Bartolo with all the JUNCTION and alb
surd seriousness Of a true Italian
huffo, and Jose Mardones, while not
eXhausting the comic possibilities of
Basilio, sang the music superbly. But
the real triumph of the evening was
won by new singer, the Almaviva.

His use Of his voice is superb His

American comes to US like q precious
gift from bygone age.
The audience at once recognized his
abilities, and the applause after his
two airs in the first act was of the
kind usually given only to Caruso.

Francis La Bau, Traffic
Aid OH N. Y. Central, Dies
Had Been Active in Regulating
War Freight in This
Civ

Francis La Bau, traffic assistant to
Regional Director A. H. Smith, one Of
the most active executives in the man
agement of the railroads OF the East
crn region during the last year, died
yesterday morning at his home IN
Tarrytown. He was fifty-nine years
old. i
Mr.. La Bau was born in Railway, N.
j.. and was eduated at the Nazareth
School, a Moravian institution at Naz-
, oreth, Penn. He began his railroad
career with the Pennsylvania Railroad
in Philadelphia, but remained with that
road only q, few years, going, to the
New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad, with which system he re-
NAMED continuously for thirty-six
years.
Mr. La Bau was recognized as one
Of the foremost traffic men in the coun-
try, and in August, 1917, was made
traffic manager of the New York Cen
trail system. In June, 1918, Regional
Director Smith placed him in charge Of
all traffic matters for the Eastern ter
ritory, and in that capacity he was
largely responsible for the vast work
of the Freight Traffic Committee of the
North Atlantic Ports. which body,
through enforcement of the permit sys-
tenn, regulated the heavy war traffic and
cleared up the dangerous congestion
which threatened to block the flow of
supplies to our army and the Allies.
Overwork in the discharge of these
duties made such nroads upon Mr.. La
Bau's strength that six weeks ago he
went to Florida for vacation. He re-
turned to his home about week ago,
apparently much improved in health.
He leaves wife, Mrs. Julia Stanley La
Bau, and one daughter.

MostBeauti:tulN. Y. Woman
Fzees from Artists Praises

The most beautiful women in New
York City flashed into sight for an
instant on Friday night Four famous
artists, geni of the magazine cover,
found her within unerring judgment
among crowd Of thousands. They
showered upon her all the praises
which arc beautys due. They moved
to place her on pedestal of honor
They declared her the only and right
full lineal desccndafN of Aphrodite.
And then they discovered that She
whom they had taken for Venus was
only Cinderella after all.
For Miss Edyth Hyde, after fright
ened acceptance of the golden apple
coveted by all feminine New York and
a hurried whispering of her name to the
ave. tricnen judges, warped herself
durriedly in white cloak, jumped in
:. taxi and disappeared.
Didn't Lose Slipper
Who is she? What is she? No
body seems to know. Her slippers
were on tight, she did not drop the
apple nor leave the finest clue Dehlnd.
If it had not been for the camera,
which caught her as she was wonder
ingly inspecting the Gift Of Gods. no
one would have known what face it
was that launched four blase New
York artists on such a sea of praise.
But she, true to old tradition, had
overlooked this modern appurtenance
of Prince Charming and so the day was
saved Here she is for all to look at,
and her name is Mrs. Edith Hyde Rob
bins, Of 220 West Seventeen Street.

she appeared that she was a lady of
leisure. an actress. an. artists model,
that she came originally from Mont
clair, n. J. But none of these things
could be verified, and at Miss Hyde s
home, where she fled to get her beauty
sleep, the bell \of the small apartment
tangled again and again. but the door
failed to open, and the beauty KEEP
herself safe beyond the Threshold
And She's Quite Young
Miss Hyde, it was said yesterday
morning by those jewellers who could
be found after the all-night affair, has
lovely brown hair with red tints. She
is neither tall nor short, nor stout nor
thin. Her eyes are blue, and she has
long, curling eyelashes. And she is
quite young just about twenty
two or so.
1t must not be supposed, however,
that Miss Hyde's title for first hon
most beautiful women of the stage and
the artistic sets came to compete for
the golden apple.
When Miss Hyde, in glittering
Queen of the Harem" costume, with a
shining ornament atop her fore head
and rows of jewels and bears swinging
about her 1.-the FORM appeared she out
shone them all. A gorgeously gowned
page was ordered to bring the Queen
of Beauty fruits in profusion. The
Apple followed, borne aloft on green
jade pedestal by a slave. 1t was mod
estly received by the choice of the
judges, and she murmured: ooh, there
are lots of better looking girls here
than / am" Then she seized her cloak
and fled.

pageant cf beauty was held, defeated
beauties hung dropped after Miss Hyde
