BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

The two operas that have been
known as the double bill" for many
years, Mascagni's "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana" and Leoncavallo's "Pagliacci"
were last nights offering OF the San
Carlo Opera Co. as its weeks sea-
son draws to a close. The two short
works are so deeply impregnated
with human feeling that their ap-
peal remains undiminshed with the
passing of time. Not seat was to
be had in the National Theater last
night and many applicants were
turned away showing that, no mat
ter, how often repeated the famous
twin works Of opera have still a
universal appeal.
Fortune Gallo, general director OF
the San Carlo Opera, has been asked
many times why he did not include
more OF the less familiar operas in
his repertoire. His reply, drawn
from many seasons experience over
the country, was that he gives the
public what it wants to hear. New
operas have been tried from time to
time and have not proved to be
drawing cards. Schedule the beloved
standard works, he said, and the re-
suit Is the capacity houses that have
been the rule here during this en-
gagement. Through such an un-
shakable stand he has been able to
produce opera. to carry his group to
every city of Importance in the land
and not ask cent Of financial back
ing from any one.
Arias Are Enjoyed.
Undoubtedly part of the success
OF these popular operas is the fact
that every one knows the music.
When the arias are sung, the inter-
mezzos played, the audience sits
back and enjoys itself able to ap-
preciate fully a we'll turned phrase
or dramatic effect.
Last nights audience followed
with real pleasure the development
of the stories and the artistry of the
singers. In "Cavalleria, the much
wronged Santuzza was sung by
Mobley Lushanya who cemented the
impression made in Aida" by her
moving portrayal. Her voice was
warm and sure throughout and she
acted without exaggeration. Sydner
Rayner was more convincing vocally
than historically as Turiddu, but
received hearty acclaim after his
farewell to his mother.
The strongly drawn characters
that surround the two leading roles
were taken with distinction by
Stephan Ballarini. acting and sing
ing the part of Alto with fine effect,
Gladys Zeither as Mamma Lucia
and Flora Sherman as Lola. Many
we'll -thought-of scenic bits, such as
the entrance of the priest into the
church before dawn of Easter Day,
the empty streets until the church
bell sounds and individual acting of
the chorus contributed considerably
to the setting of the story.
