Ever the favorite Of those who like
the sonorous and picturesque COM
hined in opera, Aida" was presented
last night by the San Carlo Grand
Opera Company at the Shubert- Be-
lasco Theater before an audience
which crowded the house. Once again
the misfortunes of the Ethiopian
Egyptian temple to the banks of the
Nile and ended in tragic death in the
tomb beneath the temple.
The San Carlo organization gave an
adequate Interpretation Of the great
Verdi opera, the ensemble singing be-
ing especially commendable through
out. The second scene Of the first
act. showing the temple of Vulcan at
Memphis. was splendidly done. the
singing of stage and the work Of the
chorus of priests being Of high order.
Manuel Salazar. in the role of
Radames gave a sympathetic inter-
probation Of the role Of the hero Of
the opera. who is torn between duty
to his country and love for the Ethi-
opian princess. His pure tenor was
used to excellent effect in Heavenly
Aida" in the first act, as we'll as in
arias later in the opera. Bula Ray
Shull. as Aida, showed to ADVANTAGE,
her soft soprano pleasing throughout
Stella De Mette in the role Of Am
neris gave a fine dramatic interpre-
tation. Others in the cast were Au-
gusto Ordognez. Pietro de Biasi. Natalie
Gervi, Luciano Rossini and Alice
Homer. The triumphal scene Of the
entrance to the city was married by
an Egyptian brass band" the mem
bers of which played modern comets
and trombones. used printed music
and wore eyeglasses.

POLLS THE Century. Midnight
Whirl."

Strangers in the city who may be
FEELING desperately lonely may do
well to visit Polls this week. where
The Century Midnight Whirp has
on Broadway roof. with nothing Of
aloofness about the whirlers.
Early in the evening the members
OF the chorus enter partially clad, and
after DOMINIC the remainder. of their
costumes invade the first floor; sing
ton Me Up?" In gratitude for this
rather intimate service they return
in a short time and hand out dough-
nuts. and again, later. to the tune of
Let Cutie Cut Your Cuticle," they
manicure the hands Of embarrassed
time the whirl is over the audience
and the cast are almost "buddies."
The production is "glorified" cab
aret show. and in New York doubt
less has reconciled many patrons to
paying Is cents for a nickers worth
well for it. Plot there is none, and the
old-time "hokum." used literally. in
the hands of Felix Adler, Frank Fay
and Jay Gould. gets over with a snap.
Winona Winter. Annette Babe and
Daisy Dewitt are the most divert
ing Of the fair members Of the cast.
with the exception of Bessie Mccoy
Davis, who is billed as the star OF
the show. Miss Davis proves her abil-
ity as an eccentric dancer, but she
found it more difficult last night to
get a rise" from a Washington
audience than from the Broadway
clientele.
Several artistic but rather daring
dances by "Kyra" add to the pro-
gram. her "Danse d'Athens" being es.
pecially well received. Nor should
the singing of James Buckley, Jack
Geier and Ed BisIand. who make up
the white Way Trio" be overlooked
The music of the whirl. written by
George Gershwin and Harry Tierny, is
easy to listen to. but there are no
melodies of particular merit AS a
whole the production is calculated to
drive dull care into temporary exile,
and whoever fails to get at least a
half-dozen good laughs out Of it may
need a specialist.
