opera bouffe The Beggar Student seldom sung nowadays that Us pro- duction by the Aborn Company served to attract an unusually large midsum- mer audience to the National Theater last night The Beggar Student while termed a comic opera Is a sort of lyric version of The Lady of Lyons with a plot quite as Intense and sympathy pro- voking as that of BulwecLyttons Im mortal tragedy rounding of course to the now out of fashion but none the less gratifying happy ending With one or two exceptions the com- pany fairly outdid Itself In the adequate assumption of the characters Robert Lett as Gen Ollendorf gave the most legitimate portrait he has yet attempted though bin Interpolated topical song while funny enough of Itself violated the atmos- phere of the opera most ruthlessly His acting however was above reproach and won much deserved applause Harry Luckstone as Symon the beggar student was excellent and Harold Blakes really sweet tenor was heard most advan tageous in the role of Janlizky Edith Uradford was an effervescent Bronlslava and seemed in most excellent spirits as well as In superb voice Bea- trice Goldie was a charming Laura but her voice is unsuIted to the difficult arias allotted to the role In her duet with Mr Luckstone however she proved more at ease and voiced several high notes with confidence TUlle Sallinger was an ac- ceptable Countess Palmaclta and Phil Branson a comical jailer Frixie Cadiz as Lieut Poppenberg came to the front in a speaking part as a military dandy and Jack ONeill Walter Halbach Will- iam Loughran and C W Phillips com- pleted a most capable cast The opera is pleasing both on account of its excellent presentation and on ac- count of the fact that It is the novelty of the Aborn season WA Dons House at the Belaaco- 1lcnacs An ovatlonMke reception was tendered by the present at the Belasco Theater last night to MISS Charlotte Walker when she appeared as Nora Hebnar Ibsens celebrated drama A Dolls House It was her initial at the theater as the hpad of a midseason stock company and her popu- larity was vouched er by the record equaling turnout which greeted her pre- mier Thow who came perhaps with the sole Idea of seeing Miss Walker however were offered extra inducements for en- tertainment They witnessed the produc- tion of a remarkable play written by one who is probably the greatest of modern playwrights with one of his strangely attractive leading characters played by an actress who is just crossing the thresh- old of emotional possibilities Ibsens problem plays usually worked out with- in a constricted atmosphere and with commonplace characters are powerfully Interesting and in this instance that power is accentuated by the presence of three such capable portrayers as Miss Charlotte Walker Sydney Mather and Mr Edward Ellis The story Is of a woman who makes every sacrifice for love and does not receive adequate returns Nora Helmer puts herself In jeopardy of a felons fate by forgery committing the act for the purpose of obtaining money for the preservation of her husbands health and when exposure is threatened he from whom she was justified m expecting offers anger and blUer taunts In the hands of Miss Walker this pathetic figure is made strongly impressive and she displayed powers of emotional feeling which would be considered beyond her by those who have only viewed her in the light of a personally attractive actress with an inclination toward lighter roles She te entirely successful in exhibiting the complexity of the character and stir- ring the deeper feelings accruing to it without recourse to high pitch or undue theatrical device The whole performance presages a rich and accumulative feature the only fault being shared by Miss Walk- er with other leading members of the company in failing properly to measure the acoustic properties of the house which fault will no doubt be readily overcqme as the week progresses The character of Torvald Helmer was portrayed m a completely convincing manner by Mr Sydney C Mather and Mr Edward Ellis again demonstrated- his scholarly versatility by his work as Nils Krogstad while competent support was accorded by Mr Guy Coombs as Dr Rank and Miss Alice Butler as Miss Linden The audience was extreme ly demonstrative and when Miss Walker was recalled after the second she was the recipient of a number of floral testimonials DO YOU WEIGH YOUR ICE Wagon Drivers Charged with Xot Delivering All Paid For That the drivers of ice wagons are giving short weight without the knowl edge of the companies by which they are employed that they refuse to deliver Ice to those customers who insist upon weighing the commodity and that these conditions obtain generally are charges made to the Commissioners by E C R Humphries of 1217 0 street northwest who asks that steps be taken to protect the public from this systematic Mr Humphries calls attention to a recent purchase of ice which upon weighing he found to be 5 pounds less than the amount paid for The driver of another company he states has de cllned to serve him further notwith- standing he delivered Ice to the sur rounding neighborhood The reason for this says Mr Humphries Is that the driver became offended when told that tho Ice served to me was from two to four pounds short in weight I have changed my patronage to three compa nles including a private concern and I find them all alike It Is short weight with all of them It looks as If word has been passed around among the dispensers of ice that- I will Insist upon weighing my Ice and demanding what is due me and
