At her feet clustered her worshippers. They iiad made her forget ail but that they were enthralled and ready to listen as Ions; as she would sing to them.

The audience last night was not made up of musicians or' music lovers, although there were many of these pre-ent. A great mass of those present in the galleries had never heard.Schumunn-Helnk before. They had come-in many cases because the occasion was a benefit for the West Oakland because it was in the Municipal Auditorium, and a great singer was to sing at popular prices, a singer from whose presence many had been excluded before because of the fact that she had appeared at the "Western Federation of Mincra The citation was issued on tie strength of an affidavit made by Guy Miller, the representative Charles H.

But Schnniann-Melnk Is at lioma with "JUHt folks" and She won them to her as mueh by that emanation ui broad liuinan sympathy and lwve fur human kind, as by her art. There wera many musicians Tn the many who-had heard her before. At first they were a little disappointed.

Her opening number, one of her most famous songs, failed of that magto, which has cast its epell over her hearers before. It was bach's wonderful song of praise. "My Heart Kver-'Kaithful; Hlug Praises, Be Joyful," which 8chu-mann-Helnk has carolled in years gone by with a heartfelt 'Joyousness that called. up the simple and direct faith of the middle ages, the age of fulth and the glad acceptance of Oud. Hut there was something lacking last night.

The diva had nut quite placed herself In sympathetic touch with her hearers. I.lebe Dlch" was better. The clear tones and- perfect shading in the rendition of this song made the artist more at hime, and the audience lost the feeling of watchfulness. From, this point onward they hud lost the power of criticism and had become worshipers. 1 "ARIA IS TRIUMPH.

The rich coloring ana warmth of the famous, it somew hat hackneyed spring aria' from Salnl-Saene' "Samson and Uelila," from one of the triumphant numbers for the singer. Her voice soaied and tilled the big auditorium. It was a f.tting prelude to the superb arioso from Meyerbeer's "11 Ptophete." The dramatic declamation, and the beauty and grace of the air gave Suhumunn-Hetnk her great opportunity." It also displayed the extraordinary range of her voice, with its ruKged and almost masculine low tones and its swing through the rnlddle register tn the purity of her high clear notes of soprano quality. The voice of the diva has not quite the flexibility and sureness of old. But in the main she is the same great singer remembered In the days of the Orau grand opera company in her Wagnerian roles, and in after days in concert work.

The second group of songs was reminiscent of some of her finest concert work, Schubert's "Erlkoenlg" and "Die Hugo Wolff's "Helmweh." Carl Loewe's "Mdlher at the Cradle" being among the lleder which are always remembered on Schumann-Heink programs. Tonl Hoff, who was her accompanist, effaced some of the delicacy of the first Schubert number by over-heajy placing, but mado up for this by praiseworthy work at the piano in "Erlkoenlg." which he handled with fine feeling. Wagner's "Traeume" and the delightful drollerie of the seventeenth century "Spinnerliedchen" were part of thi group of songs. The last group was made up of modern Madame Schumann-Heink gave of her best In the triumphant rendition of Gertrude Koss' "Dawn In the Desert" and Walter's "Cry nf Rachel." "Down in the Forest" and "Good Morning. Sue," two beautiful songs, completed the diva's part of the program.
