D'INDY COMING HERE.

Paul Marie Theod ore Vincent d Indy.
the French composer and founder OF the
Paris Schola Cantorum, will visit this
country next season on the invitation
OF Walter Damrosch. when he will APP

New York Symphony Orchestra In the
third pair OF concerts in the regular
Carnegie Hall series. December / and 2,
which will be Mr.. d'Indy's only appear
ance in New York.
The engagement OF Mr. dIndy to ap-
pear in New York was arranged when
Walter Damrosch and his orchestra
gave concerts In Paris last May under
the auspices OF the Ministry Of Fine
Arts On this occasion Mr. dIndy served
with Saint-Saens on the municipal COM
mittee appointed TO welcome the Ameri-
cans. The programme, selected by
Mr.. dIndy. will include compositions by
chestra he has composed three sym

played here by Mr.. Damrosch In 1919

upward sweeps OF the music Of A nlneris
as many of our latter day singers do.
The same range gave her a firm
foundation for the music of Ortrad.
She was the first TO sing the part here
except in German. The writer heard
her sing it in Italian and with com
manding authority OF style She was
great in La Favorita," an opera to
which vitality can be impaired only
by a supremely fine contralto and an
equally admirable barytone. 1t is un-
necessary to catalogue Miss Carys re-
pertoire. 1t included all the principal
contralto parts OF her day.
The voice was of rich dramatic
tdmbre. 1t lent itself easily to the
proclamation of the tragic passions Of
contralto roles. Miss Cary, however.
used the organ always with profound
respect for vocal beauty. She knew
how 10 express emotions by pure sing
ing. She belonged TO a generation Of
singers who knew not the mouthin gs
and the shoutings of to-day
The question will be asked whether
Miss Cary was the equal OF contraltos
known TO the present generation OF
operagoers. Answering such questions
is an unsatisfactory task The young
operagoer always believes that he Is
Fearing the greatest singers that ever
lived. and that when the old people
talk about the famous singers OF their
youth they are dreaming the dreams
Of senility.
The young people are too often right.
But il Is pretty safe to say in the case
Of Miss Cary that she was the foremost
contralto who trod the lyric stage within
the memory Of living operagoers. No
other has quite equalled her in the
splendor Of her tone. the excellence Of

LITTLE LEISURE FOR A STAR.
Leo Dftrichstein Devotes Fifteen
Hours a Day to Work.


Those who imagine that an actor, and
especially a star. mas an abundance OF
i leisure at his disposal would change
their opinion should they have the op-
portunity to take a peep at page out
OF the daily life of popular actor such
Leo Ditrichstein. 1t is true that Mr.,
Ditrichstein while playing Toto at the
Bijou is only compelled TO be at the
theatre for about three and half hours
each evening except on matinee days.
In reality his working hours are much
longer. He generally is at the theatre
before IL o'clock in the morning and re-
mains for at least two hours discussing
business affairs with his personal man
ager and his business manager. Mr.
Ditrichstein is interested in financial
way in the production of Toto and
this means that he has TO go over com
plcated statements daily. Then. too, he
has other theatrical interests which oc-
cupy time and consume energy.
He also devotes a couple Of hours a
day to his mail and another hour or SO
to reading plays submitted 10 him by
American authors or in studying plays
for his use in this country. These ne
discusses from financial as We'll as an
artistic standpoint with his managers,
for new productions involve an outlay
of sums as high as $4,000 before one
cent on return can be realized.
In addition TO his theatrical interests
Mr.. Ditrichstein also has large invest
ments in other businesses which entail
close watch on the stock and COM
modify markets. for he Is a fairly
wealthy man. and riches unless watched
take wings and fly away. There is not
a day passes but that his stack OF mail
includes some demand upon his purse
for charitable or similar causes.
The few spare moments that he can
find are devoted TO glancing through the
papers or in quiet game OF bridge.
Like the average business man. Mr.. Dit
richstein devotes nearly fifteen hours
day to work. and even his summer va
cations are burdened with the reading
of plays or the study of a new role.
