about seventy people. The particular- : ly big feature of the Pavlowa-Mordkln program will be the "Arabian Nights" an oriental composite that will occupy the stage twenty minutes. For this, a full setting has ben created by Paul Paquereau, the famous Parisian scenic artist, whce beautiful production, of Orpheus for the Metropolitan Opera company was the talk of last

season and probably the finest thing of the kind ever brought to America. , Paquereau has outclassed all previous efforts in creating a Persian atmosphere for the "Arabian Nights." Seizing upon characteristic- idefes of his great master, Gustave Moreau, he has spread deep blues, green and orange in a daring, dazzling oriental color scheme that pervades everything from the stage carpet to the costumes worn by the dancers. These costumes have been made in Paris from designs prepared by Paquereau from Persian miniatures belonging to a

i manuscript of Firdusl's poems In the National Library in Pari3. In order to i enjoy the inimitable colors of the least, original Bokhara silks were used

this because tlie coloring process employed by the Turkestan craftsmen is a secret as jealously guarded as that of the wonderful Persian tiles. No occidental manufacturer of fabrics ever has been able to successfully counterfeit the' Bokhara shades. Five huge "drops" and two '"set pieces" are used in the illusion of an oriental interior Paquereau has pre

pared as the background for Pavlowa and Mordkln' piece de resistance.

Mordkln himself created the ballet.

employing the music of five composers. There Is a tragic note in the fact

that Bourgault-Ducoudray, greatest of

authorities on Oriental music, died while negotiations were pending for

the use of the Persian dances and folk music from his opera "Thamara" which was a most pronounced success of pie Paris grand opera during the seasons of 1896 and 1908. Bourgault-Ducoudray authorized Mordkln to use the music on June 30th and ordered a contract prepared. He died a few days later, bringing to a close a career in music not unlike that of Sir

Richard Burton in the field of letters. It is well known in artistic circles tha, in order to assimilate the spirit of oriental music, Bourgault-Ducoudray made his home for many years in Teheran, Persia, and elsewhere, in Arabia and Asiatic Turkey. In compliance with bis wishes, three days after his death the Pavlowa-Mordkln contract was signed. Compositions of Glazounow, Chamlnade, Rimski Korsakoff, the famous Lesghinka on Circassian themes by Rubinstein were also drawn upon for the big "Arabian Nights" number. Edward Sledle, technical director,

and Fox, the distinguished scenic artist of the Metropolitan opera house, are engaged in a friendly artistic rivalry with Paquereau in the work of equipping the tour.

Other divertlsements will be Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody, interpreted by Mordkin and eight character dancers from the Imperial opera house of St. Petersburg and Moscow; the Glazounow "Pacchanale Dance" presented by Pavlowa, Mordkln and the entire corps de ballet in Greek costumes; Saint-Saens "Swan, Pavlowa's famous solo dance, executed in swan costume and with a special full stage setting; Bleichmann's Adagio, Mordkin's famous arrow dance, a series of Russian national dances in costumes historically accurate; Glazounow and Chopin mazurkas; Rubinstein and dine polonaises; Bohemian dances of
