Substitute of el Principal in these adventures

My comment:

It is a figurative sentence, that means that El Tacón was the substitute in this kind of performances.
"Relevo" have the sense of the race (relay).
The word "lides" is the plural of "lid" = pelea, lucha, encuentro. And in this case it looks that is used like in the sense of bull fighting (also a spectacle)"fue una gran lid" (una buena faena). Because it doesnt have the same sense in English, I suggest to put "adventures" instead.

So much was the unfolding of the middle of the century, the stiletto craze was born ... in 1838 and the main change in these leads/tides from 1846-was called the cathedral of the Opera in America

My comment:

I researched lides no where could I find a meaning then I checked Babylon free translation and it kept giving me leads then tides so it must mean tides or leads
