Hardly Enough Brew Is Left for
. . . ;
a Hilarious Celebration
R )
+ |
Saturday Nighgt. |
The hopes of those who have bf"“?:j
expecting a big night Saturday nig‘hi]
n celebration of the last day of tkmi
beer saloons were waning Friday, for
heer dealers reported that almost a
famin® of the brek was at hand. |
The wholesalers were sold out and
the saloons were busy sending jout
their remaining stocks to residences
v the dozens of bottles. One of the!
wrgest retailers said he couid get ’3;')!
cents a - bottle for what he had’ left|
f he cared to charge that price, and
t was rumored that draught beer|
would cost 10 cents a glass on Sat
rday. ‘
Nevertheless, the eve of the inaugu
ition of the-new prohibition law will
e marked by’ a good deal of the car- |
vival spirit. The kegs in most saloons
robably will be drained to the last
drop before the closing hour, but
there will be a plenty for a somewhat
l'llarious evening, |
All beer saloons will be vacant,
stores Monday and many clubs which
have had the form of socia! organi
zations will be no more.
Councilman Edward H. Inman had
contemplated offering an ordinance
n Council to tax each package of
liquor delivered in Atlanta to make
ip for the loss of city revenue caused
by the closing of the saloons and
ciubs, +He said Friday it was use
less. A similar tax law was passed
n Birmingham and declared uncon
stitutional by the Alabama Supreme
Court

Persons who have had visions of

dealt a sad blow by the ruling In

The following is a copy of a letter
sent out by Attorney General Walker

“Replying to yo favor of the 28th

By DUDLEY GLASS.
Mme. Johanna Gadski, here to sing
Eva in “Die Meistersinger” Saturday
afternoon, wonders why, among seven
seasons of Atlanta opera) we can not
give at least one evening to one of the
great works of Wagner's “Ring.”
“Sure, ‘Die Walkure' would interest
yYou Southern operagoers,” she said
Friday, in her apartments at the Geor
glan Terrace. “You have twice heard
‘Lohengrin’ and twice ‘Tannhauser.’
This week we give ‘Die Me!stersinger.
But these are not the best, the great
est of Wagner. 1 earnestly hope that
in the seasons to come you wili give
an evening to one of the Nibelungen
series or perhaps even to ‘Tristan und
Isolde.” 1 shoul?early love to sing
for you in one of these.”
Mme. Gadski, an artist equally at
home in the Italian and the German |
opera, does not think highly of her
role n “Die Melstersinger.”
“Eva is the smallest part | sing.” she
sald. “But there is one fine scene for
the soprano.”
She was perhaps too modest to say
that this scene, Eva's mock flirtation
with old Hans Sachs, demands a so
prano of the very first rank, even
though she be offered small opportu
nity in the rest of the opera.
“My favorite roles?" ghe repeated,
when asked which of all her parts she
llkes best. “Why, when I ¢ing in ‘Die
Waukure' I am sure I love Brunnhilde
best. When I sink 4n “Tristan’ lam
sure there ig no role like Isolde.”
Mme. Gadski, unlike most artists of
foreigm birth, i= a firm bellever in op
era in English. And she believes con.
fidently that cities !ike Atlanta should
support thelr own opera, without ex-

“There are so many beautiful voices
in America,” she said. “But what
chance have they? They can not en
ter the Metropolitan at the start. At
lanta could organize a fairly good op
era company, dwithout " paying enor
mous salaries. Sometimes, when a
great work was planned, she . could
have a ‘guest’ from some famous com
pany. It is thus in Germany. The
towns there will have a house whose
time is divided between the drama and
the opera. In the opera the actors
will help to fill the big scenes and
dress the stage, though they will not
sing.” It is good opera, too, though not
great opera. But it gives the begin
ners a chance to climb.”
Mme. Gadski's daughter, Lotta, who
was such a favorite when she came
to Atlanta with her mother two vears
ago, is busy In New York just now,.
“We are moving from our apart
ments to a home near the sea,” said
the soprano. “And Lotta wishes ev
erything to be ready for her mother's
return. I left my apartments, and lo!
I shall find my new home awaiting-——
and Lotta to greet me. Is !. a wonder
1 shall long for my concert tour to
end?”
The artist would not discuss the re.
cent detention of her husband, Cap
tain Tauscher, accused of connection
with German plots to blow up the
Whalland Canal, on the Canadian bor
der. She had been misquoted by one
New York paper, she said, when in
her first excitement a}xe expressed an
opinion,
“It" will soon be all right,” she re
marked, confidently. “And such mat
ters have nothing to do with music.”

Audience Goes Wild |
At “Aida” Matinee
laa a |
The matinee performance of “Aida’ |
Thursday afternoon drew an audience |
which filled almost every seat in the|
Auditorium, an audience which rose|
in its seals at the close of the great |
scenes and cheered the singers until!
they would come hefore the curtain nu|
more. It was the most demonstrative |
gathering of the.week, and certainly |
the cause was worthy of its effect. |
Margerete Obher, Frances A\M.'i.flin—l
vanni Martinelli and Pasquale Amato |
shared in the day’'s triumph and ilfli
reward, and Gaetano Bavagnoli, Hw‘
conductor, was called to the foolights |
to bow his acknowledgments His !
slender figure, in close-fitting hl:n'k.‘
offered a startling contrast to the]
rainbow costumes of the singers \\'h(\’
stood beside him i
“Aida,” twice sung here, is too fa- |
miliar to demand an extended rev !P\\Al
It was produced more brilliantly than !
ever before in one particular, at least ‘
in that new and more ornate costumes
were provided. It is a work that ap-|
peals to the eye no less than to the |
ear, a pageant which has few v‘i\u‘m‘,!
The famous second act, the triumph- |
ant return of the warrior hero, \\m‘E
the most sumptuously staged w-r‘nnl,
ever presented here i
After,such a performance as that of
Thursday, on# would hesitate to!
choose any one of the principals fnr!
the first laurels. But. happily, “Aida” |
gives glory enough for all. I never |
heard Mme. Ober's big contralto to|
such advantage as in Amneris. Mme, |
Alda's clear soprano was more Y‘mlv:
usually effective in “O patrio mia,” |
and in that haunting duet &t the end. |
“O terra addio.” Martinell after |
his first moments, sang Rhadames in|
a manner which proves his right tol
these heroic roles, and Amato, the|
Amonasro, repeated his former suc-|
cesses In the role. Henri Scott’s hoom- |
ing basso was given excellent oppoi- |
tunity in the Hirh Priest's role, and |
Basil Ruysdael was a most Impressive
