The twcnty.flrat week othe season at tho Metropolitan Opera Houao began last evening with the performance of Leonl'a \IOracolo\ and Leoncavallo's Pagltaocl.\ The fact that Mr. Caruso was to appear once again as the tragic clown was sufficient to crowd the audi j torium. But 'If any went merely because the famous tenor was to sing they must have found additional pleasure in the admirable presentation of the little Arama of Ufa In San Francisco's Chinese quarter. There was only one change of cast In the work, Marie Mattfeld instead of Sophie Braslau singing the rolo of the unhappy nurse. dn 'Tagltaccl\ Mr. Chalmers sang Tento for the first time here.

Jacques Thlbaud. vlnltnlnt. nnrt IfnrnM Bauer, pianist, gave the third and last nbcr!p;ion concert In their series of the ten piano and violin sonatas of Beethoven at Aeeltan Hall laet evening. Tho programmo contained three works by the master, namely, the sonatas, A major, opus 1J; F major, opus, 14, and , A major opus 47, \Kreutser.\ The works In the list, as at the two foreiolnr concerts, were admirably selected so net w mviie comparison ana airora variety. , Both musicians were In good form and In their performance they again , demonstrated their excellent skill In ren- dering ensemble music. A fine under- standing of classic style and a raro lecnmcai xmessa marked their playing, and withal there was tho delight af- forded of tonal beauty unu brilliance In color. Mr. Bauer and Mr. Thlbuad In their recitals have been of much artistic Im- portance In the field of chamber music during the season now nearlng Its close. Last year they gave their Beethoven) series In a much smaller hall than the , one In which they have presented It this year. Their audiences this season have completely filled the larger auditorium. RARE SINGLE COLOR PORCELAINS VIEWED Pcnchbloom and Sang-dc-boc- nf Vases of Subtle Form Pleaso tho Art Experts. An exhibition of rare, Blngle color Chinese porcelains In the Galleries of Parish-Watso- n & Co., Inc., calls atten- tion anew to the marvels of rich color, and subtle form that grew beneath the fingers of .the ancient Oriental crafts- men, prised evidence of an art that seems to be lost. The form of the old vases can be approached by moderns, but not the glaxes. Whatever, the secret formulas were by which the brilliant fs and subtle peachblooms were produced they rest now In a firmly sealed book. Modern attempts at the same effects only serve to set In relief the successes at tho early Chinese. The Farls'n-Watso- n exhibition con- tains two groups, one of pieces In peach- - bloom and one of s, that are In every way remarkable. The aing-de-boe- pieces, twenty-tw- o In all, re said to be the finest group as- - semDiea since inose 01 me Aiiman col- lection. A pair that Is quite unique. as far as all records go. Is In the shape known as \double gourd. The glaxe Is brilliant with here and there the effect that Is called \clotted blood.\ The double gourd vase Is frequently found In other glazes, but this pair In aing-de-boe- ut stands quite alone. Another' rarity In this group Is a large vase In the \baluster\ shape, with- - a more even, but even mors brilliant, glaze. The nineteen peachbloom vases wero collected by a conno sseur who gave thirty years to th search tor them. They range through all the tones irom tne unripe to the rtpo peach. There are tout writers' water bottles that run through this gamut and an amphora shaped vase of exceptionally Interesting quality of a tono that approaches the ripe peach. There are two amphoras of the shade known as \ashes of roses\ and two In dalr de lune. The vltrlne that contains these p'eces ought to be a little Mecca, for those Interested In tar Eastern porce- lains. There are also groups of apple greens. mirror black and other admired single glaxes. A pair of turquots \bslustera\ stands out from these In distinction, and there Is also a fine vase In mustard yellow, one of the largest that has been seen here. LAIiaUE ART ON VIEW HERE, Interesting: Display of Glass Prod ucts nt Knoedler's, One of the upper galleries nt Knoed- ler's now contains a most Interesting display of art objects In glass by the famous Rene Lallque, who for years has been ranked as one of the master craftsmen of France. Ills work In glass and In Jewelry long has been favorably known In this country, but certain pieces In the present collection represent his Istest discoveries and achievements nnd will be viewed by students with pleasure and profit These objects are vases, done some- what after the method that Is known to workers in bronze as the \clre-perdu- process. Ths vase Is first modelled In wax and when covered with a mold tho wax la melted and drained out to bo replaced by the molten glass. The vases are unique specimens and the process contains as yet soma uncertain ties, so that not every vase comes out alive, so to speak. Those that have survived the perilous process and are now being featured In the exhibition are singularly beautiful. The designs, with bird and floral motifs, are charming, tor M. Lallque's taste as a designer is very assured, and the cloudy variations In the color of the glass am most attractive. In addition to these vases many fit- tings for electric lights are being shown and these aro Ingenious and original. There are also some table ornaments in glass and pendants for necklaces that have the richness of Jewels. EYLES 0CHELTREE. Philadelphia Couple Married In Homo of the Bride.

JACK NORWORTH RETURNS Van and Schenck Playing a Donblo Week Other News of the Varieties. Tho Palace Theatre started the week yesterday with a bill of such all around excellence one remained clear through to the water lions. Mario Dressier, ot course, mads the big dent on the boards. She came back to vaudeville after two years spent In Liberty Loan campaigns and In proving to soldiers, sailors and marines that the Government could fur- nish, them with some mighty fine enter- tainment at 130 a month. Miss 'Dressier, having used her voice against the Germans right up to the day when they couldn't stand It any longer, decided It was time she gave a benefit for the public and incidentally restore her purse to a robust condition. A large reception committee filled the house to welcome her back, and turned her promenading on the stage Into a victory parade. Miss Dressier amused with a song Illustrative of the woes of n negro soldier whose heart was made for war, though his feet weren't. She revived lie 3 favorite method ot burlesque, re- producing a classic dance as It might be done by a person built on a whole- sale scale. Miss Dressler's proportions fitted equally well Into a representation of grand opera sung with tho muffler cut out Merriment also reigned When Miss Dressier portrayed the heroine In n modern problem play, and when she had done with him it was evident there wasn't a Palace patron who thought thero was anything to this Mr. Ibsen. Some Ponnds of Laughter, As with every one else who went Into tho armed forces of tho country, the ser- vice seems to have filled her out more. If such a thing can be said of Miss Dress ier. She made every pound count If laughter Is any criterion she must weigh nt least a ton. Miss Dressier still wears her hair high and her volco practically anywhere. Jack Norworth contributed the light- weight side of the programme. The au- dience Just missed having him play a saxophone to them as a novelty, for whenever he finished a song and turned toward the instrument the applause al- ways forced him to turn back to sing an encorts and the day was saved. His now material, Including \On His First Day Home\ and \Mm and That's Not AH,\ caused the applause to become epi- demic For what he called an \ap-plau- finish,\ SlmJIar to that which comes when a ror act winds up with a display of tl i flag. Norworth an- nounced he wouM bring on his child and then led cut one ot the pickaninnies on tho bill. Jass Mendelssohn Arrives, Sheila Terry In \Three's a Crowd,\ a musical romance with agreeable melodies by William B. Friediander, put on anothor act over which the, spectators seemed willing to raise blisters on their hands from clapping. Assisted by Ben Bard and Gattlson Jones, Miss Terry brought Ltsst and Mendelssohn Into the varieties in person, revealing what they i mlesed by being born a century before j.iiz ana interpreting mem wun a rag- time toe dance. The olce of this new figure In vaudeville, while fresh, Is nothing to put on a phonograph, but she Is quite capable of bearing the brunt of her act on her knees. A surprise attack was engineered by Van and Schenck, who took the place of Franklyn Ardell, laid up by one of those colds which so often attack actors who expose themselves constantly to ap- plause. The singing pair proved as popular as ever with their new act. which Included a song about the way in which tho cootlo Inspired shaking the shimmy. Tills team, together with Bert Will- iams, Chlleon-Ohrma- Lillian Shaw and the Ford sisters, formed one of those all star bills at the Riverside without which that house finds It cannot struggle along from week to week.
