ROLE OF CARMEN TRIUMPH
FOR RUSSIAN SONGSTRESS
Wealth of Instinct for Realism Is Lavished Upon Role by Mile.
Burskaya in Opera Given at Heilig Theater.
BT LEONE CASS BAER.
ANEW Carmen, a vivid, colorful
and fascinating Russian Carmen,
dinging the role In her native
tongue, an achievement and unique
thing in itself, and lavishing upon
the role a wealth of the Russian in
stinct for realism. Mile. Burskaya
achieved a personal triumph Thurs
day night at the Heilig.
This young Russian womin'a con
ception of the role Is original, wholly
artistic and stirs the senses. Her opu
lent mezzo-soprano, a voice of per
suasive quality, full flung and pleas
urably sure, and heard the evening be
fore as the old countess in "I'ique
Dame." Is revealed in, even greater
beauty In Bizet's Impassioned mUBlc.
Her dramatic Interpretation is un -
marred by any tawdry theatrlcaliem
or bizarre overemphasis so often con
spicuous in the portrayals of Carmens
given by dingers of Latin b,ood. Mile.
Burskaya ban an understanding of the
value of restraint and tears no pas- J
stons to tatters, itatner sne punas
the character of Carmen with a subtle
artistry, making her not the wanton
some would have her, but a capricious
gypsy maid, untamed, passionate yet
fickle, quick, to love and quick to tire,
imbued with a fatalism that flirts
with death, charming, voluptuous but
never vulgar,
.She gave to the beloved and familiar
Habanera a delightful new vivacity
and sang the "Seguidilla" and subse
quent solo numbers with vocal allure,
suffusing with the requisite warmth
the amorous and fiery passages with
Don Jose and with Kecamillo. Her
scene where she reads her death in
the cards was tremendous In its dra
matic i import, her big horror-filled
eyes fairly revealing Carmen's soul
to the audience. In her tigerish rage
when Don Jose brutally Ill-treats her,
and in her portrayal, by gesture and
expression, of her boredom and Im
patience at Jose's insistence in front
of the bull ring, she was dramatically
superb and vocally a never-ending de
light. It la very evident that Mile.
Burskaya wishes to be seen and heard
only as a member of the cast, rather
than a star to whom the art of her
"UuiTnlHiMu" nnH BiihnA.
associates must be subordinated, but
by reason of her dazzling voice, her
charm and spirit of diablerie and
physical appeal she constantly claims
one's attention, even when she is
among the others.
Opera Simple and Tuneful.
Simple and tuneful though it may
seem as compared with some other
works. "Carmen is an opera that re
quires for the full setting forth of its
wonderfully varied charms a cast of

annual report on amount of business.
showing an Increase of $638.80 over

profits were $3052.60.
The budget for 1922 will be $5400.
J. M. Kummell. state examiner.
made the following report on the
office of county clerk: "The condi
tion of the records and accounting is
satisfactory In fact the entire office
excellent singers, and this is certainly
provided in the Russian Grand Opera
company. The fact that all the sing
ers gave the roles in their native
Russian tongue was an achievement
indeed, and created a sensation. The
throaty gutterals of the Russian
speech were more noticeable in. the
diction of the men singers, but the
women wove their speech magically
soft, with delicate slurring of lengthy
words so as to fit them Into the
music.
M. Busanovsky in the role of Don
Jose is skilled as an actor, as well
as having a splendid tenor voice. The
enactment where he pursues Carmen
and plunges a dagger into her heart
was a particularly fine piece of tragic
j acting. M. Panteleeff as the pictur
esque, Escamillo fits the role pic-
torially and displayed a delightful
basso. His singing of the Toreador
song wan given an ovation and calls
and prolonged "bravos" from the
balcony held up the performance a
few moments, while the delighted
-singers smiled and bowed in genuine
appreciation. Mile. Osipova made
charming Micaela, the young peasant
maid in love with Don Jose. A half
dozen others, in solo bits and a splen
did ensemble of voices, added to the
vocal beauty o! the production. Car
men has been lavishly staged, and the

color and line freshness are past an
precedent we have had in Portland
They gave one an excellent Idea of
the Spanish originals. Quaint and
animated Spanish dances, the soft
twanging of the guitars, and the click
of castanets enhanced the scenes and
all of it was glorified by Bizet's in
spiring music, delicate, glowing, al
ways new, and illustrative of Car
men and her surroundings.
Muslclanly Power la Klne.
Eugen Feurst conducted with a fine
muslcianly power. The audience, not
so large as on the opening night on
the main floor, was a capacity one in
both balconies, a highly sophisticated,
musically intelligent audience that
knew how every turn of the music
.should go and showed its delight
when the singers scored.
The cast for "Carmen" was:

LUMBER CARGOES
LEAP UP IH YEAR
Increase Over 1920 Is More
Than Eleven-Fold.
RAIL RATE RISE IS CAUSE

the period stated in 1920 were 12,453,
197 feet, and for 1921, 133,791,775 feet.

have Increased 1022 per cent.
The Pacific northwest mills are

islands and the West Indies, the nine
months' shipping report shows
slight decrease compared with like
period in 1920 by reason of losses In

The demand of the public for red-blooded,
outdoors stories on the screen and the popu
larity of Jack Holt in his many characteriza
tions have combined to bring him to the top
position, and his initial vehicle is one that
will meet and pass the most severe criticism.
in
The Call of
the North
LONELY LAND of the snows and
the howling wolf pack. Where
the will of the strongest man is
law. Where the way of defeat is
the "Trail of Death."
Into this land and against the tyrant
who ruled it comes a "rank out
sider" to conquer, avenge and love.
A drama that stirs the blood like a
wintry wind in the face. Racing
through dauntless adventure, amid
the wild beauty of nature untamed.
