SYBIL SANDERSON IN "ROMEO ET JULIETTE"
EVOKES HEARTY APPLAUSE FROM AUDIENCE
Attractive Programmes Presented at Tivoli, Alcazar and Central Theaters, While
California, Orpheum and Columbia Repeat Offerings Successfully.
BLANCHE PARTINGTON
WHEN "Manon Lescaut" was
chosen for Syfcil Sanderson's de
but before a San Francisco au
dience last Saturday evening at
the Grand Opera-house it was
presumably because the role was the best
thing in her repertoire. She had sung
it numberless times. It was written for
her. She had been trained to its possi
bilities by the composer himself and had
achieved a huge success in Paris and Jt.
Petersburg in the role, as we heard here
from time to time. Naturally it was im
agined from these things that "Manon"
was Miss Sanderson's best work. It was
that in which she won her fame and it
was that which was chosen to exhibit
her here to her expectant compatriots.
Just the same, it was a mistake, and a
big one.
The thin, finicky elegance of the opera
came with absurd effect after "Die
Walkure" of the evening before, and the
melodiou# splendors of "Faust" in the
afternoon to begin with. Its light insin
cerity of theme, aptly fitted to equally
emasculate musical setting, jarred imme
diately on the ear keyed up to grand
opera pitch.
it was as if one had been given the frills
round a fruit cake to devour instead of
the comfortable richness of the cake it
self, and the suggestion carried Itself out
THE SAN TKANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, . NOVEMBER 19, 15)01.
as far as Miss Sanderson herself was con- \
cerned. But she was not at her best on
Saturday night, not by much, as her work
last night in "Romeo and Juliet" showed.
She was evidently more seriously affected
by nervousness than was at all apparent,
The voice suffered seriously through it,
and, combined with the thinness of the
opera, the conditions were liberally ' un
favorable to a success of any kind.
It was different last night. "Komeo and
Juliet," though not a great opera, is
at least worthy, and in parts strikingly
beautiful. Miss Sanderson had something
to sing and one of the beautiful world
roles to play, and her Juliet is another
story from the "Manon." Not that Miss
Handerson is a great singer; she has no
quality of greatness; but her voice at its
best, as heard last night, is a high, light
soprano of sweet, though uncertain qual-'
ity, flexible and well cultivated. But it
is worn and only safely used in the lighter
voice, the loss of quality being immedi
ately apparent when the singer attempts
anything fuller than a mezzo voce.
But she sang the "Waltz" song with a
good deal of charm, and throughout
showed a vocal competency that gives her
a place with singers not of the first rank,
but with others that come a quite respec
table second. She enunciates beautifully,
every word being clearly distinguishable
all over the house.
As to Miss Sanderson's dramatic con
ception of the role, it is by far the most
satisfying I have seen. It Is very French,
unusually animated, but full of charm,
tenderness and girlish tfrace.
She is a beautiful creature and quite
worth the money to look at, but she acts
the part, too, and is the only singer I
have heard who put the tenor in the
shade from the standpoint of dramatic
interest. Melba, as Juliet, created only
the most languid enthusiasm here in
spite of her marvelous vocal gifts, but
Miss Sanderson last night roused the
house to a genuine enthusiasm for the
role and the singer, and just by virtue of
the truth and poetry of her conception.
Of the others Salignac was the Romeo,
and . added appreciably to his laurels
thereby. He a little over-acts the part,
but It Is so frequently under-acted that
the other thing comes as a distinct relief
Barring a tendency to sing off key occa
sionally, the tenor was in good voice, and
was much enjoyed by his audience. De
Reszke was Friar Laurent last night, and
was superbly sufficient In the part. His
massive voice was In splendid order and
there was only De Reszke on the stage as
long as he was singing.
Mr. Declery was a weak Mercutlo, with
possibilities, however; Mr. Bars was a
sufficient Tybalt, and Mr. Journet was a
dignified and artistic figure as Capulet.
Miss Bridewell received a pleasant meed
of applause as Stephano, and Miss Bauer
meister, always reliable, filled in the pic
ture adequately as Gertrude. Mr. Flon
conducted with considerable eclat.
To-night Eames, Sembrich and "Le
Nozze di Figaro" will be the attraction.
SYBIL SANDERSON TRIUMPHS.
Society Does Not Witness Singer's
Second Appearance.
Sybil Sanderson scored a distinct suc
cess last night when she sang the role of
Juliet in Gounod's opera of "Romeo et
Juliette" at the Grand Opera-house.
If Manager Grau had Introduced the
California singer on Saturday night in the
part she sang last night instead of in that
of "Manon" there would have been a far
different story to tell of the audience that
assembled last evening to listen to the
grand opera singers.
The attendance was not bad, but it was
not good and the boxes and many rows of
Beats in orchestra and dress circle were
unoccupied. There was no elegant dis
play or evening dress by the ladies pres
ent and the "between act talks" of what
"Mrs. So and So wore" or how Miss Blank
looked were not heard in the foyer.
The mysterious air that dominates a
"society night" was not there, but despite
the difference in the slxe of the audience
from the one that greeted Sybil Sanderson
on Saturday evening the fair singer "made
good." The gorgeous gown worn by Miss
Sanderson In the first act of the opera
was. without doubt, the finest specimen
of the dressmaker's art ever seen in this
city. It was of pale pink heavy brocaded
silk, embroidered wKh pearls and pearl
trimmings and was the envy of all the
women in the audience. The music of
Gounod's opera seemed to bring out all
the qualities of Miss Sanderson's voice,
and while none of the audience designated
her as a "great singer" all were unani
mous in declaring that she was an ideal
Juliette and great applause was' lavished
on the California artist.
After each act Miss Sanderson was

called to the footlights many times and
she was undoubtedly pleased with her re
ception, for she fairly beamed with de
light. De Reszke, Bauermeister, Bars,
Journet, Declery and Salignac were also
recipients of considerable applause.
Manager Grau listened to the opera last
night and when he discussed the reception
accorded Miss Sanderson and compared it
with the comments made when she sang
"Manon," he shrugged his shoulders.
Grau and his business staff naturally be
lieved that Sybil Sanderson would have
appeared at her best In the opera of
"Manon," with which she Is identified, as
Calve Is with "Carmen" and Tamagno
with "Otello."
Catering to the public, from a grand
opera manager's view, Is a risky business.
Sanderson made her "hit" last night and,
with Grau, she Is satisfied.
To-night Madames Barnes and Sembrich
are to be heard in "Le Nozze di Figaro,"
with De Reszke, Campanari and Fritzl

a clever one and has proyen such an at
traction that It is doubtful whether the
patrons of the Orpheum will be satisfied
to see her leave. Lillian Burkhardt is ex
ceptionally clever in the playlet she is
presenting this week, and the Fraser
troupe of international dancers are terp
sichorean experts. Adelman's xylophone
solos are still popular and the funny
stories of Nlblo are fetching. Bicknell,
the man with the do^gh and the nimble
fingers, is a hit. In addition to his digital
cleverness he is a humorist and keeps the
audience laughing heartily with his re
marks. Ward and Curran are a good
team and the Kaufmann family literally
paralyze the audience with the skill they
display In manipulating the bicycle.
Central.
With Its local surroundings, its familiar
Chinatown quarter and the still more fa
miliar bluecoats, "The King of the Opium
Ring" at Belasco & Thall's Central Thea
ter opened last evening to a crowded
house. An enthusiastic audience Inhaled
the pungent odor of the punk without
murmur of protest and vigorously ap
plauded the daring feats exhibited In
every moment of the play. The produc
tion was a very heavy one and the per
fect reproduction of the well-known por
tions of Chinatown won frequent ap
plause.
Hallett Thompson as the officer of the
law had the sympathy of the house, who
urged him on to his many deeds of dar
ing. Misses Annette Marshall and Pen
nock as the much-sought sisters, were
strong In their respective roles, and fre
quent hisses attested to what a capable
villain Stanley Ross, as the "King of the
Opium Ring," can be.
James Corrlgan as Wah Wing, high
binder, added to his many character hits,
as did George Hernandez as the black
chink. The balance of the cast was well
sustained, and as a first night perform-,
ance "The King of the Opium Ring" is
among the best things the Central has
yet presented. "Siberia" Is announced for
Thanksgiving week, with a special mati
nee on Thanksgiving day.
California.
Haverly's Minstrels played to another
jammed house at the California last
night. The big audience heard the new
jokes and songs of some of the cleverest
black face performers in America. There
aro some fine soloists in the company and
the end men are very funny. The min
strels will play at the California all the
week.
Columbia.
Comedy was never presented here be
fore with such careful attention to scenic
effects and such picturesque art as is wit
nessed at the Columbia this week in Au
gustus Thomas' comedy "On the Quiet."
The name fits the play well, for it is
unusually quiet, and were it not that it is
scened to perfection and presented by a
company in which there are no misfits, it
would steer dangerously near to the rocks
and shoals of disappointment. But in
such capable hands it is an enjoyable
performance, remarkably free from horst.
play and containing many gems of char
acter study most artistically rendered.
Cranley Douglas' Duke of Carbondale is
a charming bit of character acting with

a charm of freshness and naturalness sel
dom seen in these conventional days and
the recalls with which she and Mr. Col
lier were favored last night were ex-
tended with an enthusiasm and warm
heartedness that must have been highly
gratifying to the clever actress.
Alcazar.
"Self and Lady" was given the hearti
est kind of a reception by a large audi
ence at the Alcazar last night. The play
is a farce comedy revised from the
French and is replete with laughable
features. The plot, if plot 4here is, is
rendered rather hazy by a succession of
amusing situations without any very clear
connection with each other. A notary,
in the absence of a star singer, takes
the part of Faust in the opera and makes
a decided hit. His. wife, unaware that the
new character is her husband, falls in
love with him and sends him a note giv
ing a rendezvous. He" restolves to deceive
his wife for once and meet the strange
lady. His friend, his friend's wife and
tne opera star and his wife all make sim
ilar decisions as regards each other. All
meet at a popular hotel and complica
tions ensue which draw forth continued
and well merited applause. Miss Juliet
Crosby, as the wife of the genuine singer
received an ovation. Her work is really
superb and deserving of the emphatic
indorsement which it received. Marion
Convere and Margaret Wycherly were
also very clever. M. L. Alsop and Frank
Bacon are old favorites and are as amus
ing as ever.
Fischer's Concert-House.
Eleanors Jenkins, the operatic rocallst.
scored a great success In the disrobing
scene from "Fra Dlavolo" at Fischer's
Concert House last night. Her "Zerlina"
was a well-sung and refined Impersona
tion. The Lentons, three comedians, acro
bats and hat-throwers, gave a novel
sketch. "After the Ball," and Edna Ham
ln, who made her first appearance here
was warmly applauded for her soprano so
los. Marlon George, a young violinist
played with feeling and showed an excel
lent technique. Gertrude Wade, a pleas-
Ing balladlst. sang some new songs and
the Blalne Brothers, herculean acrobats
gave an extraordinary muscular exhlbi'
tion. Karle and Bailey, triple horizontal
bar experts, repeated their performance
of last week and Hlnrichs" orchestra waa
enjoyable as ever.

Makes Effort Later to Secure

The triaV of the suit for divorce insti
tuted by Addie M. Sorensen against Wil
liam Sorensen for desertion and failure
to provide was commenced before Judge
Sloss yesterday. The Sorensens were
married in 1889 and their children, of
whom there are three, were mein-^
bera of S. H. Friedlander's "Brownie*^
Company, and Mrs. Sorensen claims?
that she was compelled to depanJ
upon them for support. Sorensen denies „
this, though he admits that from the time
he left his wife, in June. 1898. when he
went to Nome, until he returned in 1900,
he only sent her a few groceries and $10.
Sorensen claims that when he went to
Alaska he arranged with his 90ns by a
former marriage to care for his wife and
family. According to Mrs. Sorensen. the
arrangements were not carried out, arul
one month after her husband went north
she was compelled to depend upon the
exertions of herself and the three little
ones for a livelihood. The case was con
tinued.
