W ITH a number of stars of
first magnitude in artistic
endowment and celebrity,
and retaining among its forces the
best and highest salaried artists of
last seaspn's organization, the San
Carlo Grand Opera company comes
to the Boyd theater next Tuesday
for a series of seven performances
five evenings, with matinees on
Wednesday and Saturday. And if
the performances are as significant
and worthy as their success in other
cities'upon the present tour seem
to indicate, it is very evident that
the event is to be taken even more
seriously than past visits of the ar
tists here have proven. Omaha is
considered more or less of a home
for this big operatic aviary, because
here 'it was where the largest audi
ences were sung to, upon one visit
some 16,000 persons having heard
the four performances an average
of 4,000 per performance. The San
Carlo managers are cognizant of this
achievement, and while most of the
large cities of the country are en
tirely without this form of enter
tainment this season because the
field of oncratic activity has been so
sharply 'racted, the routing of
the San Carlo was purposely ar
ranged so that this community could
retain its well known position upon
the musical man of the country.
The beautiful Puccini operas have
been added to the company's ever
broadening repertoire. And for the
first time local opera devotees are
to hear the songbirds in the English
language, for on Wednesday of the
opera week Wolf-Ferrari's charming
one-act composition, "Secret of Suz
anne" will be presented. Because of
the brevity of the opera, however,
it will be staged in connection with
the Leoncavallo two-act favorite, 'T
Pagliacci," to be sung in Italian, two
separate casts of leading artists to be
employed.
"The Secret," as it is termed in
operatic parlance, calls for but three
characters a sprano, a baritone and
a basso buffo. The latter,' however,
is a dumb person, and only make
motions. The opera will be sung
by Elizabeth Amsden, leading
dramatic soprano; Mons. Joseph
Royer, by the way the soprano's
new husband, and Signor Natale
Cervi, the basso buffo.
Such singers as Miss Amsden,
Stella DeMette, the rich-voiced mez
zo; Senor Salazar, the heroic-voiced
Spanhh tenor; Guiseppe Agostiui,
the Italian tenor; Angelo Antola,
the little baritone, who comes again
to sing his brilliant "Prologue';"
Mons. Joseph Royer, the French
baritone, and those two deep-voiced
bassos Signors DeBiasi and
Cervi these are to return, and be
heard in roles wherein they have
made special successes. Among the
new singers are Haru Onuki, the
Japanese prima donna; Queena
Mario, coloratura; Doria Fernanda,
contralto, from the Teatro San Car
lo, Naples; Signor Romeo'Boscacci,
the versatile Italian tenor from the
Boston Opera; Signor Rodolfo
Fornari, late a leading baritone with
the Campanini forces, Chicago, and
Mme. Bettina Delnio, from the Mon
treal Opera, a contralto of reputa
tion. The repertoire may have es
cape'd the notice of some readers,
and is herewith given again, as the
regular seat sale for all seven per
formances opens at the Boyd thea
ter next Tuesday morning at 9
o'clock. Tuesday,, March 25,

BY HENRIETTA M. REES,
WHEN is Jascha Heifetz com
ing again? It can't be too
soon for many of those who
haJ the privilege of hearing him last
Monday, nor for many others who
did not have the opportunity of hear
ing him at all. The very perfection
of his playing makes it all seem
so simple and easy that one scarce
ly cares to linger upon the majyel
out skill of it, for through and
above the notes, the sentences and
periods of the music there is that
quality which tricks the mind away
from technic, that magic of art
which is more than the composer,
the player and the instrument, al
though dependent upon all three for
its expression. It is not always
there, this quality, even when music
is played faultlessly, but it is there
in the playing of Heifetz. It was
especially-manifest in the limpid
beauty of the "Larghetto" in the
Handel Sonata, and in the joyous
and infectious humor of the "alle
gro con brio, the closing move
ment. In the case of Heifetz,
it is not necessary a handicap to
be young, and not to have the
breadth and conception of an Ysaye.
Who can compare the sunrise and
the sunset? Each is a phenomenon.
The wonder of the one is that
it can be so beautiful not hav
ing yet seen the day, the other
is that, having seen, it can still be
beautiful. Young Heifetz finds in
music something which is given
only to the chosen few. It is a sort
of spirituality of communion be
tween the composer, himself and
the auditor. It is the quiddity of
genius.
Violinists say that the technical
feats accomplished by Heifetz were
wonderful. His use of the "up
spring" bow," which requires the
most finely poised muscular sense,
the ease and freedom with which he
leaped from string to string, and the
very swiftness of it; all these were
astonishing in themselves. And then
after he played staccato notes with
an up bow, he turned right around
and played them down again, while
local disciples of this instrument
sat, watched and listened, speech
less. Appoggiaturas.
The charming arrangement of
"On Wings of Song," by Mendels
sohn, played by Jascha Heifetz
Monday evening is by Acson.
According to the mother, the
name is pronounced "High" fetz.
We were reading an accompani
ment for Mrs. Jensen, violinist, for
the first time.
"Don't die away so much there,"
she said.
"But it says 'rit,'" we replied,
"But in this place' returned she,
"we don't want the Kit to dye."
Miss Luella Allen and Miss Luella
Anderson, both, have violin studios,
and the similarity ol names often
confuses slight acquaintances, A
good joke happened to Miss Ander
son when a casual acquaintance
came to her and said,"Oh, Miss
Suzanne," (in English) and "I'
Pagliacci," (in Italian), with two
different casts; Wednesday. evening:
"Rigoletto;" Thursday: "Aida;" Fri
day: "Carmen;" Saturday matinee:
"Martha;" Saturday evening: "II
Trovatore." Regular theater prices
will feattire the engagement.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR !!0
Well-known local dru(f!t aayt every
body ia uinf old-time recipe of
Sace Tea and Sulphur,
Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull
and lifeless, is caused by a lack of
sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Susre
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark
shade of hair which is so attractive,
use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous
mixture improved by the addition
of other ingredients by asking Rt
any drug store for a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sapre and Sulphur Com
pound," which darkens the hair so
naturally, so evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell it has been applied.
Yob just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small Btrand
at a time. By morning the gray
hair disappears; but what delights
the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after
a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives
it an appearance of abundance.
