Weg MAUD ALLAN AS “ SALOME Feb 2 Wed vonenttal tentica Maud Allan Repeats “ Vision of Salome " Maud Allan repeated her " Vision of Salomé " dance at a second performance in Carnegie Hall , New York , on Wednesday afternoon of last week . The audience was not as large as it was at her debut . As a result of better lighting facilities the much discussed dance was seen to better ad vantage , although it did not deeply impress the spectators . In the first part of her program , the “ Peer Gynt " suite , “ Spring Song " and other lighter selections were enthusiastically applauded . Fels Performans N Jan 29 Feb 12 , 1910 Audience Receives Her Version of the Dance Indifferently 1910 Maud Allan appeared for the second time in two weeks at Carnegie Hall , New York , last Saturday afternoon , and afforded the curious an opportunity to indulge in the delights of what has generally been ru mored as her pièce de résistance - the “ Vis ion of Salomé . ” In addition to this , she danced to the music of Grieg's " Peer Gynt " suit , a Sarabande and Gavotte of Bach , Mendelssohn's " Spring Song " and Strauss's " Blue Danube . " The music was again played by the Russian Symphony Orches tra , under Modest Altschuler . The main feature of the afternoon was naturally reserved for the end , but subse quent developments proved this move to have been an unwise one . The remaining numbers , all of which were danced in the graceful manner that the artist has already made familiar , were received with the cus tomary enthusiasm . “ Salomé ” fared dif ferently , however , and when at its close Miss Allan came forward to bow the be wildered audience , uncertain as to whether it was all over or not , applauded perfunc torily . Much blame for this must be laid to the miserable lighting arrangements , which had been so unsatisfactorily con trived that few of Miss Allan's evolutions were visible . What could be seen , how ever , gave no reason to fear police inter cession . The movements and gestures were nothing more than those conventional ones which have of late become the property of “ Salome ” dancers of all kinds and condi tions . The stage was set to represent the garden of a palace , but there was no sev ered head disclosed for the contemplation of the audience . Doubtless matters would have been much better could the audience have seen more of the proceedings , and therefore those who had charge of the lights have much for which to answer . Wed Even Fet 16 MISS ALLAN'S SALOME STILL ENTRANCING 2 Stilegutt Dancer's First Evening Perform ance at Carnegie Hall Is Wit nessed by Pleased Audience .
