There Is no room for doubt whn vm. t
near an opera of "La Boheme" tvixs be
cause IU flow of beautiful melodies Is out
lined distinctly and they make a definite
impression, or to go back farther to the
"II Trovatore" claaa in which the mel
odic Influence is so immediate that if it
does not "catch- at once the possibili
ties are hopeless.
SIMILAR TO "IRIS"
m "Monna Vanna" runs cloeely akin to
"Iris," that masterpiece of Mascagni,
but departs even more from the old con
ventional opera in that the French com
poser, Henry Fevrler. does not employ
a leading motive as doea the Italian cre
ator, who la better known through his
Cavalleria Rusticana," Comparison is
drawn with "Iris" i because that ia 'one
of the more modern-works that has been
sung in Portland.
In accordance with the modern style,
the music of "Mohna Vanna" runs con
current with the text of the story and
words are never repeated to conform
vlth the music as in the old operas. In
"Monna Vanna" the music follows the
drama ad literam and hence there are
many recitatives, and at times to a very
light accompaniment.
MT8IC EXPLAINED ,
In such instances the composer leaves
1. for the particular Instrument or com
tlnation of instruments to voice the emo
tion, as was done quaintly and beautiful
ly In the third act by the bass clarinet
ceuoa wnen Uuldo interrupted
Vanna in her explanation of how ahe
happened to return with Prlncivalle. and
repulsed her. At other times, it was the
f.utes that shrieked with terror or that
trumpets anarled defiance or vengeance.
In the quiet and temporary peaceful
scenes the French horns furnished the
pastoral effect. The strings voiced the
moments of tender love or burning pas-:
sloii. and so the tonal picture is unfolded
until the end.
. The second act deals with love scenes
snd is therefore the lyric and romantic,

Was Austrian vice consul at the time the
war broke out, told Federal Judge Bean
that he had done most of the things of.
which he is charged, but declared that
even Humphreys probably would have
acted likewise under the circumstances.
Judge Bean is hearing Jthe final argu

argued for about, an hour, Woerndle re

appeal to the court. The defendant's
