Everyone wants to bo interviewed at

Kktlons. whK-h. hy the way, are very ae
r this year. A great hardship Is put
lion the artieta and the imprrsaarloa by
aj new rollnic aa to dutlee on costumes.
mh1 It Is not quite clear why all of a
soddon. after all these year artiste
Wardrobes should be. held aa dutiable,
efpcrta'ly as most of them are foreign
ers who unquestionably live abroad,
i Garden's "Salome" Costume.
LMary Garden's moel discussed cos
tume la the ne which she will wear
la "Salome." It consists of a marvelous
network of teems over which she weara
a itorseously embroidered crepe mantle.
Jt would be a breach of confidence to
irlve away more state secrets. a every
one is on the qui vlve to see the divine
Mary In this role. I'p to the present
time there have been no objections
raised In Sew York, ttnt Philadelphia
wishes It distinctly understood that Its
morals should not be contaminated with
tse Strauss-Wilde music drama.
However In point of the fact that there
have been exhibitions of the "Salome"
dance In a number of the variety thea
ter of Philadelphia, as well aa in most
or the cities of America. It is hardly
likely that Mr. Hamniersteln s plans will
suftYr from any Interference, as his of
fer, ns; is the hiKhest type of art, while
tae others are merely -pandering to sen
sational tastes. The Manhattan will open
Mondav niht with the first perform
ance of ""rosea" e.t this house, as
the Puccini operas bave always been
exclusively property at the Metro
politan, but the success with which
liammerstein has met h Induced the
publishers of the ureal Italian's works
to consider the protection as detrimental
to their interest.
The title role will be assumed by the
Countess Maria Labia, a very beautiful
youns; Venetian who has made a posi
tion for herself at the Opera Comique
of Berlin and over whom there was
in-ch dicusfion and many threats of
revolt from the Ufnnan opera-house.
Vlrnaud. always the mreatrst favorite
among; the ,li4rlton"s of the world, will
sins; the part of Scarpia, which Is
m.rably fitted to his exquisite poli.a,
but w hich will l) the first role In which
he has ever appeared which Is really
antipathetic or rather In which he playa
the villain to such an extent thr.t It af
fects the audience. The part of Bcarpia
Is one of the most detestable in the op
eratic roles, but as a piece of superb
actinc i probably has no superior.
Miry Garden will make her first ap
pearance on . Wednesday night in
Thsjs." in which she has won no end
of success In Paris as also here. Fri
day night the first performance In New
York of Saint-facns' "Samson and De
IV. h" will be given with Mile. Oervllle
Reache and Dalmorcs In the title roles.
Saturday n.ght Mr. Hammersteln will
Inaugurate a new policy and one which
msv disappoint large number of his
followers. Instead of giving opera at
pcpular prlcs on this night, ss hereto
fore, be wU lve speOai ajubscrliiUon
performances, and the opening attrac
tion will be no less than Mmo Tetraz
sinl aa Roslna In "The Barber of Se
ville." 8he has never sung this role In
America, but It was one of her greatest
successes In London last season. In fact,
I have never seen her do anything as
well.
Melropolltnnt Artists Gather.
The Metropolitan artists arc arriving
with every steamer. The latest to land
were Bond. Caruso. Geraldlne Farrar
and Rcotti.
Both Miss Farrar and Mr. Scotti were
very emphatic In denying the rumors of
an engagement between them and their
denial may not be without truth, as there
are many who believe tho these two art
ists were married In Paris during the
Summer of 1907.
Miss Farrar stated that the new rola
of this season will Include Manon In
Massenet's version of this opera. Mlcaela
In Carmen Cherubino In Mozart's "Mar
riage of Figaro." and she will create the
leading role In Humperdlnrk's "The
King's Children," which will have its
first production when It will be given
In English. Miss Farrar will sing Mar
guerite In "Faust," with Caruso In the
title role. November it. whyn a series
of operatlo performances will be Inaugu
rated In the new Academy of Music in
Brooklyn. This performance will take
place two days before the opening of the
New York Heason at Die Metropolitan
waea Caruso will appear aa Badamea
with MIfs Farrar most bitterly hated
rival. Emmy Destinn. the Bohemian
prima donna, who will sing Alda for her
introduction. Having heard her In this
role In London, I presume to predict one
of the most sensational successes ever
enjoyed in this country by any artist.
Bond's First Appearance.
Bouci will make his first appearance
during the first week In "La Traviata,"
nrobabiy with Miss Farrar as Violetta.
The great tenor is In fine shape and he
has consented to add many concert ap-
oearances to his operatic performances.
It is not unlikely that he will ret as far
as the Coast before the close ef the sea
eon. although he has signed with the
opera, -at Buenos Ayres to sing .there as
early as May S5, when a gala perform
ance will be a-iven. at which he will bs
the star attraction, in fact, his contract
in South America makes him the star
attraction of the entire season at a salary
equal to that paid in America, which is
the top notch, as there Is no country In
the world which pays Its artists as much
as thev receive in America, and It 18 for
this reason that two opera-houses in this
country drain Europe to the dregs ana
leave them with practically nothing until
our season Is over.
New York's Newest Thriller.

. . .miwrnAiit Paul Arm-
atrong and Wlnchell Smith have pro
vided several thrills and Frederic
Thompson in staging It at the Liberty
-has done rne resx.
It Is very American and very up to
date, and from the standpoint o staging
it is simply wonderful. The plot Is one
of remarkable construction, and you do
not realise at first that the tense inter
est is centering upon people not at an
within range of vision or of hearing.
They are In a yacht, at the mercy ot the
waves and the storm is very apparent to
the audience, as the stage is a great
ship with the office of the Marconi sig
nals, and here are received the wire
less messages from the sinking yacht.
Of couree, this Is not half the story,
indeed It la only an incident, hut it is a
good one. The rest of It involves an
invention of a new gun. and the In
ventor has been defrauded of his rights
by the manager of the steel works, who
has destroyed the Invention because both
men love the same girl. The destruction
Is accomplished by the villain having
bad It tempered in such a manner that
Its test proves a failure, which means
the loss of enormous Government con
tracts. The occupants of the yacht are
the inventor, the object of his affection,
the steel manager, a man from the se
cret Sen-Ice and those on the stage are
the telegraph operator and the snips
officers, where another love story is en
acted and even with all the sensations
that have gone ahead, the final thun
derbolt falls when the last message
omea to eave the occupants of the boat,
but not to mind about the one who stays
with the dynamos to keep the messages
rolng. and when all are counted, It in
discovered that It is a woman, wnlch
discovery is made in time to save both
Slro and heroine. Oh. there are no
douht thrills enough for the most blase,
and for thase who enjoy sensationa-we ,
there is wild eestacy In "Via Wireless.

Favershams Together Ag.Un.
William Faversham. always one of the
matinee' Idols, and his beautiful wife,
Julia Opp, are again cast together. This
in itself would be enough to mark a play
for success, but in addition to the charm
of the two principals, the play is one of
unusual Interest, and It makes demands
upon each member of the company. "The
World and His Wife" has been adapted
by Charles Frederick Nirdlinger into
English from a Spanish play called "EI
Gran Galeoto," which had a presenta
tion in New York about 10 years ago. The
coloring and the costuming, in fact, the
plot, are all Spanish, and Mr. Nirdlinger
has Introduced a new character In the
person of an English diplomat. The play
Is tragic In its outcome, but the action Is
simple. Don Ernesto (Mr. Faversham)
and Don Julian are close friends, and
the latter, who In affection for his friend's
father, uses every effort to accomplish
certain things for his friend In a diplo
matic post. Gossip fastens itself upon the
names of Don Ernesto and Teodora. Don
Julian's wife. The latter is firm In his
belief In his friend and in his wife, and
while both are absolutely Innocent the
gossip is fanned by every one, including
Don Severo, Julian's brother, who holds
an Inflated Idea of the family importance
and who is Jealously careful of its repu
tation. Don Ernesto has a rival in politics,
and he. of course, busies himself In
spreading stories which result In a
planned duel between the two men.
When Julian hears of It he holds that it
is his place to fight for his wife's name,
and plans to face the calumniator Instead
of Ernesto. The duel Is to take place in
a studio adjoining Ernesto's apartments.
When he comes forth badly wounded, he
discovers his wife In Ernesto's room,
where she went misled by the belief that
the two friends had had a violent quarrel.
This makes Don Julian lose faith In bdth,
and while Don Ernesto has killed the
man who created all the trouble, when
Don Julian comes upon him with his
hands holding those of Teodora In a most
Innocent manner, he again gives vent to
all his fury, and believes beyond any
possible doubt that there is g.uilt between
them and denounces them bitterly. A
moment later Don Severo enters and or
ders Don Ernesto from the house. The
wife demands that he stay, since it is
her home and he has 'no right to pre
sume. Don Severo points to the neat
room, where the husband lies dead, and
again orders her from what has become
his house. Ernesto In one last Impas
sioned outburst, denies that there has
been anything between them, but now
they go out together, and the curtain
falls. The cast follows: .

Marie Cahill's New Hit.
As against .melodrama and tragedy,
Marie CahlH comes along at the right
moment,' and in "The Boys and Betty,"
which opened at Wallack's on Monday
night. Miss Cahill has another vehicle
for all the fun and merriment there is in
her. Every one knows what she can do
In the way of making people laugh at
her anr-wlth her whether they will or no.
"The Boys and Betty" Is a musical com
edy, but of an inoffensive type. That Is,
the music Is not too commonplace and
the book is full of fun. Betty Barbeau
is a Southern girl married to a good-for-nothing
leader of an orchestra, as the
name would imply a Frenchman. She
leaves him and goes to a fashionable re
sort, where she makes a success as a
florist who gains all the trade and the af
fections of many. But her husband finds
out how successful she is. and comes to
live upon the fruits of her labor, but aft
erwards finds It more profitable or mora
to Ills taste to marry a danseuse from
the Folies Bercere, leaving Betty free to
follow her choice. There are dances and
songs galore, and many of them arc
"catchy" in the extreme. The cast is as
follows:

STUDENTS' INSPIRATION
ARTISTS' COMPLETE SATISFACTION
THE
-STEINWAY PIANO-
SUPREME-UNAPPROACHABLE
. . i
Many have the ambition, the willingness to strive, the
technic and the real talent to become great artists, and
vet the critical point in the career of a great artist is not
passed, and the student succeeds only in reaching the
overcrowded field of merely "good musicians." He ap
parently lacks "something" that makes the artist. His
friends wonder why the failure.
But does the talented one lack that something !
May the piano not be unworthy of the student?
The piano must lead, encourage, inspire the student,
and it is the glorious depth and richness, that never-ending
tone, the perfect action, the absolute response to
effort, in the Steinway piano, found m no other make,
that has carried past the critical point and developed
every great iiving artist. '
We are proud to be exclusive Coast representatives
of the Steinway. , , , , ...
