AUDIENCE CURIOUS

Grand opera temperament end Hoosler thrift clashed yesterday the cast was taken by Mrs. Elsa The net result of the "mlsunderetandlng' was that Lydia Wc-lters Van Gilder, professional mezzo soprano and member of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, did not sing "Columbia" in the Hammond Woman's Club play at the Parthenon theatre as announced. - Her place In the cast was taken iby Mrs. Elas Freeman. The substitution was made after Mrs. Van Gilder had "held out for more money," a reporter was Informed today. The demand was refused by Mrs. LeGrand T. Meyer, director of the pageant and Mrs. Van Gilder withdrew from the company. It had been arranged that Mrs. Van Gilder would receive $10 for singing "Columbia, Gem of the Ocean," and at th final rehearsal the grand opera singer informed Mrs. Meyer that it would be necessary for her to charge $25 for the aong, the reporter was told. "I cannot accept anything less than $25," said Mrs. Van Gilder, "if I were to donate my services I would get in trouble with the musicians' organization. They have a way of finding things out, you know." "You've been a long time finding out cni couldn't sing for $10," saiil Mrs. Meyer. 'Here it is just before the performance. It looks like a hold-up to me."Mrs. VanGilder left the theatre ind.gnantly. it is said, and Mrs. Meyer scoured the services of Mrs. Freeman. Whena reporter called Mrs. Meyer on the telephone this morning she was very anxious that nothing be said about the incident. In reply to questions, however, she confirmed the report. At her home this morning Mrs. Van Gilder gave her version of the episode. "There really was no trouble at ail,'' said the opera singer. "I am a meraitr of the Choral Aliiance which is affiliated with the Equity Association and I am net permitted to donate my services to entertainments for whie-h there is an admission charge. I told Mrs. Meyer that my time was worth $25 but that I would sing for $10 but she said tha. he didn't believe it co'uM be arranged. 'Tc-u know I have been doing thes things without charge for years but now that I am a professional singer I cannot afford to do anything: that would injure me with ThvChoral Alliance."
