I'll Travatore" Delights.
The gradios performance of I'll
Trovatore" by the San Carloans last
night was another example of the
inexhaustible resources of that COM
pany which delighted it's audiences
at the National Theater last week.
Built on story of gypsy's ven
geance, filled with violence, romance
and passionate love, the part of
Azucena was designed to show the
extent of its impersonator's artistry.
But to be able to cope with all its
intricacies, it required a singer of
Mary Powers caliber and endow-
ment to do it full justice. OF her
portrayal of Azucena one can speak
only in superlatives, she satisfied the
most fastidious tastes by her sing
ing and acting, moving toward the
tragic finale in magnificent cre-
scendo.

tells his guardsmen of the gypsy

the houses were built, there was q
law requiring q house to be built on
. lot as soon as 1t was obtained, and
. small house with one pitch roof
was the cheapest and easiest thing
to build. This also accounts Tor the
fact that founder houses aro built
back from the building line. leaving
room for the addition Of the more
impressive part OF the house In the
front.
Mr.. Brown also said that the term
lis not an architectural one, nor Is
the design Of any great architectural
importance, but the houses probably
were so named because Of their re-
semblance TO the fish Of that name.
Another theory Is that the afioun-
der" house, which has one blank
wall and five windows In the front,
was so built to reduce the size of
the glass tax. Another belief Is that
there was law requiring o nine foot
pitch to roof, and In the case of
fairly small houses, this would re-
suit In unsightly proportions.

A fine performance of Lucia
di Lammermoor' was heard at the
National Theater, presented by the
San Carlo Opera Co. yesterday aft
ernoon. Amanda Chirot, soprano
as Lucia, and Mario Palermo, tenor
duplicated their recent triumphs in
"Rigoletto." Supported by Stephan
Ballarini, baritone, as Lord Henry
Ashton. fully recovered from his re-
cent illness, and Harold Kravitt in
his forceful impersonation of Ray
mond, chaplain of Lammermoor, the
artists vividly portrayed the dra-
matte situations, climaxed in the
famous 'Sextette" and the Mad
Scene"
BY her impersonation of the title
role, Miss Chirot scored another
point in her favor, this being one
of the most grateful and most diff
cult parts in the repertoire of a
coloratura soprano. Her brilliant
f1oritura, runs, and her high notes
had as much loveliness as they had
carrying power to echo in the re-
motest corners of the theater.
Dramatic Portrayal.
There are not many tenors who
possess the voice and personality OF
Mr.. Palermo, whose acting is always
distinctive. His portrayal of the
unlucky Edgar was intensely dra-

ranno a te sull' aura" and his arias
in the last, "Tu che Dio spiegasi

The Liberty ship James w. Mar

Originally the ship had been

bombing, which killed 13 seamen
and several soldiers who had been
removing her precious cargo of gaso-

Then it was found the ship would
not sink, so Capt Jonathan M
