Aid of Immigrants
Official Tells Audience Con-
certs Drive Away Tears at
Ellis Island.

The Russian Isba." originated last
year by Serge Borowsky, who under the
old Russian regime was director OF the
Moscow Opera, was repeated last night
In the Lexington Theatre before large
and appreciative audience for the bene-
fit of the Commonwealth Centre. which
is undertaking Americanization on
large scale under the chairmanship OF
Miss Virginia Potter. The performance
of Russian folk songs and dances and
religious music will be repeated every
night this week, with matinees to-mor-
row and Saturday. A portion OF the
income from the performances VIII DC
given to the Russian Refugee Children
Fund. The remainder will be used py

free use Of offices and assembly rooms

During an intermission Frederick A.

wonderfully beautiful music here to-
night by these Russian singers under
Mr. Borowsky and music is one OF the
chief means of assimilating the races.
We are instituting some reforms on
Ellis Island, and we have found that
out. Ellis Island used to be place OF
tears. but there are fewer tears there
now than there used to be, and know
that the concerts of national music we
have over there are driving away the
tears.

the audience), but added the Com

lieve to be right. SO. I say. we must
treat these new corners with unlimited

The Isba or festival of folk songs and
dances was given by native Russians,
most Of them refugees, In three acts.
The music ranged from the fiercely fast
tempo, with barbaric picturesqueness in
the dances. to the plaintive charm that
characterzes the spiritual music OF
Russia when we'll sung. There were
moments Of grotesque humor. The whole
performance was fascinating and appeal
ing because of its sincerity, and had
moments of dramatic strength.
In addition to Miss Virginia Potter
the box holders included Mrs. William
Church Osborn, Mrs. Henry Ollesheimer.
Mrs. Adrian Iselln, Mrs. Walter Scott
Roberts, Mrs. McAllister Smith. Mrs.
Frederick Lewisohn, Mrs. Charles Good

Fresh Horrors in
different Brought
From the Village
Another O'Neill Drama, but
Not the Equal of His EN-
peror jones'

Adoleh Klauber has again brought up
Eugene O'Neill play from the dramatic
wilderness lying south of Washington
square and put it before the public at
an uptown theatre. "Diffrent" was
first acted by the Provincetown Players
a few weeks ago. Yesterday it was
seen at the first of series of matinees
Mr.. Klauber has arranged at the Sell
wynn Theatre His journey into the un-
charted dramatic regions of New York
has not been so productive this time.
"Diff'rent" Is a work of some mere
or less powerful manifestations of hor-
ror, but it Is on a much lower plane
than the finely imaginative Emperor
Jones'" Mr.. O'Neilrs horrors in the
present play are largely pathological.
They come from the diseased mind in the
diseased body. 1t is not fatal de-
scription of a play to call 1t unpleasant.
No O'Neill play ever was pleasant. To
see dramatic use, however, made of the
dangerous years of life is too clinical
the heroine of "Diff'rent' are not ex-
plainable on any other grounds. Even
the easy horrors of the Grand Guignol
pause at this point.
There are, of course, traces OF the
authors vivid Imagination in the two
acts of this piece, which are separated
by an interval of thirty years. The
prosperous young captain of a whaling
vessel is about to marry the girl of his
choice in their seaport village on the
New England coast She learns of his
more or less unauthenticated adventures
with a brown woman on an island In
the southern Pacific. She refuses to
marry him. None of her relatives can
persuade her that he Is still eligible.
He waits for her returning after every
voyage during thirty years to ask her
hand. She grows old as spinster.
Suddenly the acquaintance of his
nephew. q worthless doughboy. changes
her whole way of life.
She dyes her hair and uses cosmetics
on her withered skin. She wears
youthful frocks. She buys dance rec
ords and lends the boy money. He preys
on her affection remorselessly She
even promises to marry him. This is
too much for the lover back from the
sea again. In despair at the sight OF
her changed condition. he hangs him
self The soldier with the utmost
brutality mocis her and tells her why
he has responded to her advances. She
is overwhelmingly Inundated by his
reproaches. He leaves her no vestige
of pride after all his protestations OF
affection. AS the curtain falls she is
on her way to suicide.
The degradation of the woman is
painted in fine and numerous strokes
Mr. O'Neill lavishes his care on this
character, although the worthless dough
boy also is we'll drawn. Both are most
sincere in their repellent qualities. The
audience received the performance with
little appearance OF cordially. The
representation would have been vastly
more effective had there been profes-
sional aid from the actors. Even In
such manifestation of his talents as
"Diff'rent," Mr.. O'Neill has earned the
right to pass beyond the amateurs.

The magic of Nine. Amelia CALI
Curcis name is still a potent spell.
There Is perhaps less frenzy in the
public mind, but a solid admiration for
her beautiful voice and sympathetic per-
sonality remains to keep her in posi-
ton in the full glare of operate fame.
She made her first appearance OF the
season with the Chicago Opera company
at the Manhattan Opera House last
evening. singing the name part in Doni-
zettis familiar Lucia d Lammermoor. ="
The house was packed and the applause
was of the kind which follows Nine.
Galli-Curci wherever she goes.
1t would be idle to embark again upon
a serious discussion of the sopranos
art Nine. Galli-Curci sings now just
az she has sung since she was first
heard here She has all the same ex-
cellencee and the same few defects. She
still sings trills off the key and she still
abuses the portamento in some Of her
recita tons. She still sometimes amazes
her admirers by uncertain attacks and
shaky intervals. But the beauty of her
voice Is the same, the exquisite smooth
ness Of her legato in cantilena passages
and the delightful ease of most of her
ornament-not always In perfect taste.
as for example in "Quando rapito" last
evening-are the same and will probably
continue to give pleasure to the public
for a long time to come.
Tito Schipa was the Ed0drdo, hand
some manly tenor. who sang so much Of
his music well that II Is a pity he did
not do the rest the same way. But Mr..
Schipa seemed to be eager to be drama
tic In the modern declamatory manner
which is decidedly foreign to the Doni-
zetti style. and consequently he spoiled
some Of his best passages. especially in
recitative. In the duet with Nine. CALI
Curc in the first act he was excellent,
and naturally his fine voice did its full
share in the sextet.
Mr.. Rimini was the Ashton. This
barytone has made no Improvement
since he first appeared here. but he
seems to be an institution In the Chicago
Opera Company. Virgilio Lazzari the
ubiquitous basso Of the organization,
