party on March 9. Nearly 2,000 in number they occupied the entire orchestra, all the boxes and part of the balcony. The

„Flirting at St. Moritz.“

& Kubelik and Melba drew just such
a house as Charley Chaplin did at the Hippodrome last Sunday,
but I dare say the audiences were somewhat different.
It mattered not on the Chaplin night what the other added
attractions were, so this huge assemblage had
to content themselves with the dancing of Mlle. Xenia Maclezora,
and piano playing by Leo Ornstein, also two vocal
numbers from Bettina Freeman. Even Mr. Souza selected his
numbers haphazard. All in all, it was the most
disappointing Sunday night concert at the Hip this winter. The
curious who went to see Chaplin were disappointed
in not finding him in his screen costume. There was little
applause until Chaplin did a few of his picture
steps, then the house came down. Mr. Chaplin is evidently
a musician, as he led Sousa‘s Band like a veteran.
