Manhattan Season
Opens With Carmen
BY San Carlo Co.
Opera Pleases Big
Audience; Alice Gentle

Makes American Debut
Manhattan Opera House-San Carlo
Opera Company in Bizet's Carmen"

The first opera performance of the
season was given last evening at the
Manhattan Opera House, where the
San Carlo Opera Company began four
weeks engagement with Bizet's Gear
men," Manager Gallo chose a favorte
opera to begin his season, for, what
ever the shortcomings of the singers,
Bizet's music in itself can bring only
pure joy.
Miss Alice Gentle sang the title role.
She pranced and tossed her head and
1uttered her fan in the traditional
manner, and in many respects was rem
iniscent of other Carmers who have
come and gone. In her opening scene,

inal touch. Seldom has any singer I'M
personating the gypsy permitted her
to appear so piqued at the indifference
of Don Jose. That innocent young
man is usually marked for her own
She does not doubt her powers of Sc
duction. But Miss Gentle's Carmen
scowled and stamped her foot, then
suddenly grew radiant at the happy
thought of the flower which should
force the soldiers attention. Vocally
Miss Gentle was efficient and occasion
ally effective.
Eugenio Cibelli made his first ap-
pearance in America as Don Jose 1t
Is easy to see the usefulness of this
singer TO any opera company. He con-
trolls an agreeable voice with intell-
gence and in his acting there is a
knowledge of routine.
Miss Madeleine Kettle was an. ex-
cellent Micaela, demure without be-
coming colorless. Her voice is pretty

the temptation Of exceeding the time

the Toreador song.
Miss Gentle, Miss Kettle, Miss
Homer, Miss Morosini and the chorus

Mr. Cervi and Mr. Baldi in Italian.
Excepting the quintet of the second
act the mixture of languages was not
disconcerting. An amusing incident
occurred in the first act with the en-
who precede Don Jose and his men.

Alexander Carr, who made a tre-

Broadway through his ~lco-starring as
sociation in the Potash and Permut-
ter productions, and who was seen
several seasons ago, is making his re-
appearance at the Orpheum this week.
Mr.. Carr Is assisted by u company Of
three in presenting AN April SHOWER"
which was written by him in cullabora-
ton with Edgar Allan Woolt. 1t is
described "a "a human story and has
scored an emphatic nit Wherever it has
appeared.
Alexander Carr is an actor possessed
of that subtle ability that is best eX-
pressed by the saying, "One touch Of
natures makes the whole world kin"
Some years ago, David Belasco, while
wandering around the streets OF San
Francisco had his attention attracted
TO d red-headed boy who was address
ing i crowd of people from the top Of
q soap box. From this address came
the iuoa FOR the play, The Auctioneer,''
that was really the first big success Of
David Warfield, now one Of America s
foremost actors.
Equally rs dramatic was the advent
Of Alexander Carr to the first rank of
popular leading comedians of the Amer
lean stage of today. When the old
Bow cry was the home Of the burlesque
as an added attraction they usually held
wrestling matches, and one night, there
being no professional referee present,
Mr., Carr was pressed into service. Just
what occurred on the mai that night
is known only to the two wrestlers,
but the audience present went from oue
burst of laughter to another ut the
| clever duipS and sayings Of the referee.
After the show Mr.. Carr was signed
to a contract that brought him from
the Bowery to Broadway, where he has
