cerCay afternoon was attended by q
large audience. The Offering consisted

made even briefer by cuts than 1t used
to be, was given for the only time In
the course of this long season. This
Is pity. 1t may be true that only
lyric dramas OF strenuous nature evoke
demonstrations Of enthusiasm at the
Metropolitan. but it has been pretty
clearly established that delicate COM
edy when wed 70 such delightful music
as that of THE Secret Of Suzanne Will
give abundant pleasure to music lovers.
In this work the action moves with
vlvacity and the music bubbles with
lively spirits and has enchanting mo-
nents of lovely sentiment. The love
theme, heard first on a piano supposed
to be played by the young wife in an
adjoining room, might have been con-
ceived by Mozart All the music is SIM
pie and fluent in melody and rich In
comedy moods. The orchestration. while
unobtrusive. contains admirable bits or
instrumental characterization. But all
the time the two voices, soprano and
barytone. predominant. IT Is essentially
a vocal work.
Yesterdays performance was excel
lent Miss Bori as the Countess Gil,
whose awful secret Is tina. she smokes
unknown to her husband, acted with
captivating alternations of light hearted
lncrriment and pctulant wrath, while
she sang her music with fresh and
vibrant tone and with appreciation. Mr..
Scott has long been admired as the
Count Gil. He is a comr"tent comedian
as we'll as sinister Scdrrio, and his
jealous RACES yesterday greatly amused
the audience. Mr.. Paltfinieri as the
dumb servitor had conventional duties
to perform, and he performed them
accordingly. Mr.. Papi caused the
orchestra to keep time with the singers
and not to overpower their voices. Some
other things which he might rave caused
were missing.
Montemezzi's work had Miss Muzio as
FiorG, Mr.. Martnelli as Avito, Mr.. Picco
as MGnfrcdo and Mr.. Di2ur rs Archf-
bGldo. 1t was not one cf the most
impressive performances OF this opera
ever given at the Metropolitan, but it
seemed to please the audience.
In the evening '.Manon'' was pre-
sented. with Miss Farrar for the last
time in the name part. Mr.. 'Chamlee as
Des GricuD. Mr.. Chalmers as Lescdut
and Mr.. Whitehill as the elder DeS
Gricnr were the other leading singers.
After each act of "Manon' there was
a great demonstration. Miss Farrar be-
Ing recalled five or six times and
deluged with flowers. In some of the
bouquets were Easter souvenirs
