JERITZA SPRAINS FOOT, BUT APPEARS HERE Prima Donna Gives Delightful Program at Academy Mishaps continue to dog the fair Jeritza and last nights recital at the Academy of Music was enlivened by the latest.

Whenthe first number I by Maxi. nilian Rose, violinist, was completed it was announced from the stage that Mme. Jeritza had severely sprained the ligaments of her foot, but would not appoint her Brooklyn audience because of the fact. However, the condition would necessitate unusual stage ments, arrangements which subsequently caused the singer and her audience considerable amusement. The stage was filled with seats and the auditorium was crowded.

The unusual arrangements consisted in two errtains, one the house curtain and another a back drop that shut the stage audience from the singer. Before she on both curtains went down, and, again on the completion of her aria, going up for the bows which had to be wany as the applause was immense. Several times during the evening the curtains got mixed up with her encores and at one time Jeritza WAS so amused ove rthe curtain and its inopportune going up and down that she could hardly control her laughter, in which the audience joined. Not the least of Madame's difficulties was a white cloth spread on the floor for her to stand on. Turning on the well foot, the other was nicely bandaged and looked as though it wore a mule, she caught it in the cloth.

becoming quite entangled. But, as some one in the audience remarked, Mme. Jeritza had not sprained her voice and the foot did nothing to detract from it. The program was an interesting combination of Techaikowsky, Strauss, Brahms, Schubert, Wolf, Delibes, SaintSaens and others, closing with the aria, "Pace, Pace," from "La Forza del Destino." The audience responded with exuberance to the dramatic power of the singer, who was equally appreciative, with a goodly number ce encores. Madame Jeritza is even more pleasing in concert than on the operatic stage, for a rectial singing gives her a greater vi.riety of expression in one evening and 59 reveals more completely her consumate powers.

Also, which adds to the place the public holds for her in its esteem, the recital gives her audience more of her personality, which is a delightful one. Of course, art is art without personality, yet it does not hurt a singer to be loved toe her charm and graciousness of personality and the more intimate coming to an audience the recital permits is not without its advantage. Emil Polak was at the piano. Curtis Quartet Makes Its Metropolitan Debut Before a large and enthusiastic audience in Town Hall, Manhattan, last even ng, the Curtis Quartet, composed of members of the faculty of the Curtis Institute of Music of Philadelphia, gave its first concert in Manhattap.
