Music Notes
Florence Bosard Lawrence
AFTER ai week of triumphs, the
I Lambardl opera company last
night sang the great double bill of
"Cavalleria Rusticana" and "I Pagli
acci" to an audience which filled the
Mason theater. Both these operas are
strong with the humanity that Is in all
of us. .Emotions common to everyone
find simple, straightforward expression
both musically and dramatically, and
men and women love and hate and
have their revenge with an earnestness
and conviction which make them seem
pardonable.
Both Mascagnl and Leoncavollo have
written music about these themes
which - accentuate every phase, and
communicate with wonderful intensity
the spirit of the situation to the appre
ciative listener.
Interpreted by such a cast as that
of last night, there Is no note ln our
sensibilitiee which is not played upon
with marvelous skill and touched to re
sponsiveness by the magic of beautiful
voices in music which quickens every
fiber of our being.
Tlie part of Santuzza is one in which
some of the greatest prima donnas of
/ \. the period have achieved their first
V fame, but no more ideal Impersonation
f\-. of the character can be imagined than
I^l that of Mme. Bosettl last night. Her
■V . dramatic work has already been noted,
W\ but in her opening appearance here on
\ \ Monday night she evinced no such vo
i\ 11 possibilities as those with which
I \, _ astonished and delighted her listen
!\ last night. Her voice attained that
t. /mpleteness of sound in which the
overtone is constantly apparent, and
throughout the long difficult part this
quality so constantly sought and so
rarely heard was evidenced.
Brilliant as was the work of Madame
Bosettl, she was not.alone in tha suc
cess of the opera, for Jlme. A. Glana
sang the part of Lola with unexpected
ability and a beauty of voice and free
dom of delivery which shows marked
advancement over anything she has
ever done here before. Graceful and
pretty, lt is possible for tills young
singer to go far in the next few years
if she continues to study and improve
''with the results noted in the last year,
Mme. A. Bugamelli sang Mama Lucia
with her accustomed reliability and P.
L\ Bugamelli was cast as Alfio, giving an
1 adequate and at times fairly brilliant
:. performance.
Scalabrini sang in both bills and de
serves the highest commendation for
- his work in both parts. As Turiddu he
was indifferent, nonchalant and happy
go-lucky, going even to his death with
only a moment's hesitation and a song
on his lips. His scene with Santuzza
and Lola was excellent and he sang
• his songs, especially the drinking song,
with tremendous vitality and verve,
which elicited "bravos" and demands
for tin encore.
; As Canlo he played the role less
quietly perhaps than one might wish,
but still with a restraint which was
much more admirable than too wild
a passion. He sang his big song in the
, first act with splendid power and woke
i'to a quicker realization of his oppor
! tunities in the tragic finale of the opera.
) Esther Adaberto sang Nedda, and
looked a beautiful one indeed, as she
J " danced and sang while the volcano of
' J hatred and desperation was boiling In
/(Carlo's heart. The beautiful quality
//" and charm of this singers vocalization
// were realized to the utmost last night,
// and called forth warm applause from
' I an enthusiastic and approving audl
1/ ence. . ". _
'I Angelo Antola, long a reigning favor-
I ite as Tonio, displayed his fine his
/ trionic power in the role, and acted and
f sang it with the best possible effect.
His rendition of the prologue was a
magnificent effort, and despite his hav
ing sung in the afternoon in "Madam
Butterfly," he responded to the demand
for an encore, achieving the almost im
possible feat of a second equally splen
did song. ■ ■■."'
--& The productions of both operas are
W good, and the chorus and orchestra
/ maintained consistently the reputa
/ tion for good work which-they have
' already established. Eduardo Lebegott
directed. . '
It is definitely announced that the
company will return for another week
within a short time. Then Manager
Berry has promised that "La Boheme"
shall be sung if there are enough re
quests for It. All those who remember
the magnificent production of this
opera which was made last year will
undoubtedly voice an immediate vote
for "Boheme.*' "Iris," long promised,
Is also one of the possibilities of the
next engagement, and probably "La
Tosca" as well as other more familiar
works. !■• ■ „
The return of these singers will be
awaited" with pleasant anticipations,
for the earnest and artistic work which
has distinguished the productions this
week has established the company
upon' a plane much higher than any
thing they have-accomplished in previa
ous visits.

Too Much Water on
the Hair a Mistake
(From Toilettes of Today, Farls)
"If your hair is becoming dry and
brittle, breaking oft and losing color,
follow the lead of tho many who have
abandoned the use of soap and water
; and ' taken up a l new method of dry
shampooing," said , Claribel Montague
in her: lecture on "Beauty" at the
Theater Monet, j Thursday. "It has
■ been proven beyond question that too
frequent .: wetting and the application
: of alkaline substances to the hair is a
mistake.. »5 • >. *--'
"Even those who formerly were de
voted to i shampooing with eggs now
use therox and orris root, .. and they
' unhesitatingly declare that this • dry
* shampoo ■ makes the . hair as bright
' and fluffy as ever did eggs.
"To ! make the .- dry shampoo mix
four : ounces kof powdered orris root
with four ounces •of therox. Sprinkle
aa" tablespoonful of the mixture on the
'head and ; brush it , well through the
hair. ,Do * this once or twice a week
If the. -hair, is thin and scanty and
you will soon . notice a new growth of
hair.' Nothing will . make the hair so

1 MISS TILLY KOENEN
Famous Dutch contralto who will sing here next month.
A MAY music festival with tremen
dous choruses, great symphony
orchestra and soloists of interna
tional renown, whether or not of local
residence, are features which the di
rectors of the festival arrangements are
now considering.
The project has been gradually tak
ing shape ever since its Inauguration
last December and will undoubtedly
develop into ono of the great suc
cesses for which Los Angeles is be- (
coming famous. .
The executive board represents the
Gamut club and the chamber of com
merce, and a governing body composed
of representatives of these associa
tions and professions: Merchants and
Manufacturers' association, the Or
pheus club, Ellis, Dominant Lyric,
Treble Clef, Friday Morning, Ebell and
Ruskln art clubs from the Los Angeles
Center of American Music society, the
board of education, teachers of music
in the high school, polytechnic high
and the grammar grades, and from
other musical organizations, mercantile
bodies and influential citizens. - •
It is evident from this that every
field will bo touched and every person
reached ln this great musical achieve
ment. . •
The benefit of such an affiliation of
musical Interests will prove of untold
benefit and perhaps not the least hope
ful prospect. is that with tho organiza
tion of the great chorus the various
singing organizations of the city will
finally form some choral . association
for the purpose of giving two or more
oratorios here each year. ■■—-.'
With the biff symphony orchestra in
better form than it has ever been, and
with an auditorium most suitable for
the production of works with a big
chorus. It is one of the lamentable I
fetaures of musical conditions here
that there is no oratorio society.

afternoon, the 19th, at Simpson audi
torium. Myrtle Elvyn, a Chicago
pianist, will be heard in two recitals.
The evening of Monday, March 21,
and afternoon of the 22d, Maud Powell,
one of the greatest of women violinists
is scheduled for two recitals. .
On Sunday evenings the Baumgardt
European travelogues and easy-chair
Journeys are announced at Blanchard's
hall.
All the leading churches promise
Easter programs worthy of mention,
and rehearsals are now on for the va
rious choirs. -„ . ■-.:.
On Fdiray, April 1, the sixth and last
Symphony concert—a Wagner program
—will be given at the auditorium. ■■
The Ellis club is scheduled for Tues
day, the 19th, and the Flonzaley Cham
ber Music quartet is due the same
month.
-_-
The final vocal recital of this season
will be g-ievh on March 8 in Simpson
auditorium, when Mr. Behymer pre
sents to the Pacific coast and patrons
of music in this city the famous Tilly
Koenen, Dutch contralto of renown in
Europe. Miss Koenen's position on the
continent and in England is undisput
ed, and her coming to the Pacific coast
this season Is something which the
patrons of the best in music should ap
preciate. We are not wont to hear
the big singingl stars during their first
American tour. . .<
Of Dutch parentage, she was born on
the island of Java, but received her
early education and musical equipment
at The Hague. It was from this capi
tal city that her first concert tour was
planned; it was here also two years
ago that she sang for the young queen
'of Holland and was decorated for her
work. This year before leaving for
America ' it was Miss Koenen's good
fortune to be "commanded" to appear
before the queen again, and as tho
meeting was Informal the queen took
from her own corsage a Jewel of extra
ordinary value and gave It to Miss
Koenen. . • ■ -
The Koenen program is given in de
tail below, as many of the numbers to
be presented are new to patrons of the
recital stage: .
"Dem Unendllchen" (Schubert).
"Die Krahe" (Schubert).

the festival, says that the committees
have suggested this scheme for the
financing of the project. The plan for
raising the $10,000 required for carry
ing out the festival association plans
calls for tho sale of 1000 shares at the
face value of $10, subscribers to bo
held responsible only to the extent, of
their subscription, 25 per cent to be
paid down at the time of subscribing,
25 per cent thirty days afterward and
the remaining 50 per cent thirty days'
before the opening of the festival.
Each subscriber to have the option of
receiving back at the end of the >
tlval and the report of the finance
committee a proportionate amount of
their subscriptions not used for festi-
val purposes; such proportion to be
determined, if there Is any loss, and
the sale of seats not sufficiently large
to meet the disbursement by an audit
ing committee, or such an amount over
and above. if the subscribers prefer,
to remain as a sinking fund for the
carrying out of future festival plans.
The sale of seats as planned by the
association, if all were sold, would
amount to one and a half times the
entire cost, and It Is believed by those
in charge that the subscribers will re
ceive back in full all such moneys ad
vanced.
Among those Interested in the move
ment are Dr. Norman Bridge, chair
man finance committee; Prof. A. J.
Stamm, chairman program committee;
Miss Cora Foy on subscription com

The second subscription concert of
the Flonzaley Chamber Music quartet
was given in New York several weeks
ago, against the opening of the much
discussed opera, "Elektra," and the
large and enthusiastic audience was
one of the finest compliments that
could be paid this sterling quartet's
work and showed clearly the esteem in
which they are held in New York.
Their concert in this city, which will
be some time during April, is regarded
with pleasant anticipations by the lov
ers of this delightful and elevating
form of pure music.
With the final Carreno concert In
this city, or rather in Southern Cali

The "Suite Antique," ,by Lucchesi,
Schoenfeld's "Grand Festival March"
and "Characteristic March." Freder
ick Stevenson's "Queen Mab" and
Pemberton's "Reverie" for string or
chestra have already been played, and
this season will see the presentation
at the next Symphony concert, March
11, of Mason's "Overture in F Minor."
This is fully up to the high standard
which Mr. Mason has already set for
himself in previous works, "Grand
Polonaise," "Symphony Overture" and
the lyric piece for strings, all of which
have been heard in orchestral con
certs. The presence of so ambitious
and scholarly a musician is a distinct
advantage to our city, and recognition
from the managers of the Symphgny
orchestra Is an encouraging sign of
growth In our own musical self-con
fidence and esteem. ; , .
The Woman's Lyric club will 'be
heard in concert Friday evening, March
11, at Simpson auditorium. Frederick
Stevenson's beautiful "Viennese Sere
nade" and "The Legend of Granada,"
a cantata in true Spanish style, by
Henry Hadley, are among the num
bers to be presented. The club will
be assisted by Harry C. Lott, baritone;
, Leroy Jepson, tenor; Ludwlg Opid,
'cello; Miss Myrtle Oueliet, harp, and
Oscar Selling, violin. From among
club members Miss Willie Smyser has
been chosen for solo work. Mrs. Ada
Marsh Chick will furnish organ accom
paniments. With Miss O'Donoughue
at the piano and Mr. Poulin directing
a very enjoyable concert may be ex
pected.
PLAN TESTS OF
AIRSHIP MOTORS
AERO CLUB MEMBERS WORK
AT MOTORDROME
Invention by Frank A. Garbutt Wlll Be
Given to Public if Success
ful Automatic Stabil.
Ity Sought
Experiments with engines probably
will be the first thing tried out by the
Aero club jef California in its new ex
periment field at the Los Angeles mo
tordrome at Playa del Rey. Engines
arc the things needed, and so far there
have been few successful machines
built.
Frank A. Garbutt has designed a ro
tating engine with nine cylinders which
he believes will be successful, and he
is now constructing parts and hopes to
have an engine built in three weeks
and then give it a thorough test.
Garbutt has his own opinions about
engines, and is planning a series of ex
periments so that he can test his new
invention thoroughly berore it is used
on an aeroplane. He proposes to find
out by electric dynamo measurements ,
how much horsepower it will require to
run the engine itself, how much is used
up in Its rotations in the air, and how
much it is able to produce when ope
rated to its full capacity. Then he will
apply its own power and measure its
development.
These experiments will be conducted
by Mr. Garbutt and tho club as soon as
the engine can be put together. Sim
ilar tests will be made with other en
gines. There are three new types for
airships being built here and in Pasa
dena, and they should be ready for offi
cial tests within two or three weeks.
As far as Garbutt is concerned, all his
experiments will be published for the
good of the science of aeronautics, it
being his plan to develop all knowledge
possible instead of making a mystery
out of it lor commercial purposes. Ho
is actuated by the belief that whatever
Is invented should be put to use as
quickly as opssible.
After engines, propellers will be tack
led. An engine may have all kinds of
power, but If the propellers are not
pitched properly or fail to develop
"thrust," the work of the engine goes
for naught. Very few propellers to
date are successful, and even if the
maker happens to hit upon tho proper
shape the construction often is faulty
with the result that the propeller de
velops serious defects or fails to stand
the strain required.
. Automatic Stability Sought
Tho groat feature to be studied and
which opens a wide field for research
Is stability, or the maintaining of equi
librium. Automatic • stability is the
much desired end of all experiments,
and when once discovered or invented
will mark an epoch in the construction
and use of aeroplanes.
The suit of the Wright brothers foi
an injunction against Paulhan and Cur
tlss, to prohibit the use of ailerons,
which have the same effect in balancing
an aeroplane as the warping system
invented and patented by the Wrights,
has made it necessary for the inven
tion of a new method of maintaining
stability, if others besides the Wrights
expect to bo able to continue flights.
To this end the club members will
lend their efforts, and It is believed
that some way can be devised to ac
complish equilibrium other than the j
methods already In use and covered
by the patent of the Wrights.
One of the principal features of, aero
plane construction is locating the cen
ter of gravity so that the machine is
balanced when aviator and supplies
are loaded. If tills is obtained it is
up to the aviator to maintain his bal
ance by his fore and aft stability—that
is, tho elevator in front and the tail—
and his lateral stability with the aile
rons. . •■'- ■
Proper construction is absolutely nec
essary, and all proportions must be well
worked out beforehand or the machine
will tip one way or the other and likely
smash. The several accidents to the
Glll-Dosh machine at tho aviation meet
wero due largely to defects in balance,
as it was hard to control the aeroplane
in alighting. . „ > "_ ■
'■' H. LaV. Twining, president of . the
Aero club !of ■ California, will confer
with Mr. Garbutt this week and work
out the former's suggestions into a defi
nite plan for action. Jack Prince, who
Is constructing the motordrome, is to
put up the aeroplane building as soon
as progress on the motordrome itself
will permit. * ' - _ V;
The structure is to be 600 feet . long

Until some success is attained all the
experiments will be conducted inside

after if there is sufficient development
the course planned for the outside of
the track will be laid out and trials will
