CAROSO TAKES HIGH FLIGHT IN 'LAJUIVE J , . Halevy's Opera Proaucca Metropolitan With Brill- iant i Setting. AUDIENCE ENTHUSIASTIC Famous Tenor Shows Full rower of His Voice Fino Ballet Seen. Enrico Caruso, who began life as a an lyric tenor, aerial of tone and prone to tho youthful passions of operatic heroes, Is now a full fledged tenore robusto, battling with the agonies of fatherhood, h mihtutles of political plot and the rlangent utterances of French recitative. He has been Ilenaud, JtiHIoi, Samson and John of Lcydtn, and yesterday after- noon he emerged as Eleazur in Halevy's \La Julve,\ produced at the Metropoli- tan Opera House by Glullo Gattl-Casaz- with accompaniment of rejoic- ings by the first matinee audience of the season. \La Julve,\ opera In five acts, book by Eugene Scribe, music by Jacques Fran-col- s Fromental Ellas Hilevy. awakened utter a deep slumber, might have pref- aced Its rising with tho words of Hruenn-hlld- e, \Long was my sleep. \Who Is the hero who aroused me?\ And Caruso would have made answer, \I am the young Siegfried.\ \Li Julve\ does not wake up very often. Its last rising was on May 2, 1913, when It was performed at the Thalia Theatre down In tho Bowery by the Zuro Opera Company. Previous to that It had not stretched Its limbs since September 9, 1909, when It ri In an Instructive capacity at Prof, Oscar Hammersteln'8 College of Music In West Thirty-fourt- h street In a season of \educational\ opera. In 1904 It was vociferated by a French company at tho Casino, and once or twice before that it had been dragged to light at the Thalia when Terottl was In the waning glories of his career. Dr. Leopold Damrosch Introduced it to the Metropolitan' Opera House stage away back in the season of 1888-8- with Materna in the cast, and Its last presentations (till yesterday) in the now historic theatre were In the season of 1419-9- when Lill Lohmann, Kallsch, Alrary and Fischer were associated In tit Interpretation of its message. Motive for llestorntlon. A motive for the restoration of this antique creation to the repertory of the Metropolitan has already been pointed out: but surely n secondary and Im- portant one must be found in the op- portunity afforded by this work for handsome scenic attire. The magnifi- cence of stage mounting now familiar to tho Metropolitan Opera House Invites the easily comforted patrons of the In- stitution to substitute the pleasures of the eye for those of the ear: The mount- ing of \La Julve\ is In excellent taste, suitable, Bolld and Interesting, and there is also something to hear. Perhaps the story of an opera so rarely heard should be rehearsed as fcrlefly as such a Jumble ot racial, religious 1 nlllaB fin h Kllffll-- . It to say that It concerns Itself with the fnrhlriden love of Priitco Leopold, a Catholic, for Rachel, a Jewess, and with the desire of the Cardinal Brogni to learn what has become of his daughter, who disappeared years before the action begins. Thinking that !eaur, the father of Rachel, knows, ho protects him from violence. In the course of the action the Jewess learns that Leopold is a Christian, But still she Is ready to fly with him, wherf Eleazur Intervenes with a command that despite the religious difference they marry.

It Is not all perfectly clear, but It Is opera. Spontlnl Addition. Prance took Hnlevy'B musical delinea- tion of all this tragedy rather seriously : but the calmly retrospective view of y discloses In It the pretentious to French opera made by Spon-tl- and the theatrical devices bo skil- fully employed by Meyerbeer. Present oporagoers aro not Interested in Spon-tln- l. although his \Ferdinand Cortez,\ excellent Illustration of his methods, once briefly occupied the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House. About Meyerbeer much more Is known and there will bo no difficulty in tracing the resemblances between Halevy'a methods and those of the famous of the fifties. Doubtless Meyerbeer In turn learned something, especially In the matter of Instrumenta- tion, from tho score of \La Julve,\ but as Berlioz had already produced \Ia Damnation do Faust\ and the \Grand Mease des Morts\ both musicians might have gone to a better school. Pompous declamation . of the old classic school, born of the marriage of Raclnos literary Ideas with Lullys musical concept and aria forma and style belonging to the Meyerbeerlan family comprise the chief materials of Hnlevy's worlc. This Is one of the operas through which the old time commentator walked, guide book In hand, pointing out the famous gems. Let us emulate so ben- eficial an example. Behold the beautiful scene of the Cardinal, \SI la rlgeur ot la vengeance,' the prayer, \Dleu que ma volx tremblant,\ Rachel's air \II va venlr,\ the trio, \Tu poescdes. dit-o- n, un Joyau magnlflque,\ the duo of Dropni and Eteasur, \Ta Alio en co moment eat devant le conclle\ and the air of Elea-iu- r, \Rachel quand du Seigneur,\ Into the scorn nt the Instance of tho tenor Nourrlt, who wrote the words. Trail of the Serpent. Although only four years elapsed be tween Meyerbeer's first success with \Robert le Dlable\ and the production of \La Julve\ (In 1S35) the trail of the serpent Is over the later score. How- ever, llalevy had not Meyerbeer's choral tricks, nor had he the same skill In Juggling Instrumental effects. His chor uses have little musical and less dra matlc value except In the Hebraic de votional scene of the second act. His orchestration Is delicate and prettily colored, but adds little to the com- munication of the voices. The ballet music Is trivial after the style of Meyer beer. Nevertheless there are vocal moments of power and expressiveness for all who are willing to accept the conventional! ties of lyric art as It existed In France In the first half ot the nlneteentn cen tury. These moments would be moro numerous and more lasting to-d- were the Metropolitan Opera House provided with singers equal to the proclamation of Halevy's ideas. No doubt reviews of opera ought to be written by very young persons, because old ones persist in hav- ing memories. For those whose operatic experiences began with the present dec ade yesterday's performance must have heen a moving revelation, To those who were taught by Nie mann, Lehmann and their associates how much of dramatic blood throbbed In the theatric melodies of Halevy, Rosa Pon-sel- le a3 Rachel and Evelyn Scotney as the Princess were but feeble representa- tives of the agonized women of Scribe's tragedy. Miss Ponselle did not fulfil the promise of last season. Her voice soMndea much moro constrained and less ftoble In tone, while her action was primitive Indeed. Miss Scotney, not In this neighborhood, but newly added to the Metropolitan company, sang with a strident and metallic qual ity- - of voice and delivered herself ot some very oily colorature passages. Other principals engaged In the per formance were Orvllle Harrold, who made a very creditable return to opera as Leopold, Leon Rothler, who labored heavily as the Cardinal Brogni, probably because he had sung Mephletopheles the previous evening, and Thomas Chalmers, who supported tho almost negllglblo role of Ruggiero. The scenery has been praised. Koslna Galll, Giuseppe Bonflgllo and the corps of dancers were seen with pleasure In UNDERTAKERS. zation. a ballet mimlckimr a piece of medttevat mummery. It was designed by Miss GallL A bevy of small damsels added to tho piquancy of this uncommon tacle. Z To conclude this summary as gan, there was Mr. Caruso In a new role, looklmj like ShylocK barring a nose which might rather have been the life long burden of Cyrano do Bergerac. No ono who Is familiar with the achieve- ments of the most popular singer of this time would expect to be told that he met all the requirements ot such a role as Eleoitir. Nor would any one of the million devoted admirers of his voice care. Probably no ono known this bet- ter than Mr. Caruso himself. All he has to do to evoke thunders of applause Is to llnirer on a high tone and to emit a final phrase at tho full power of his voice. Therefore he commands the respect and admiration of all who regard oper atic creations as of more import in an than their Interpreters, for he has again and acaln shown himself a sincere seeker after genuine dramatic results. His Jullien, his Renaud in \Armlde\ and his John of Leyden in \The Prophet\ brought him honor, ana nis uieazur in La Julve\ will be remembered, as one of his highest flights. He had conce ved the part in earnest study and he &ang and acted It with an art as far removed as possible from that of his more familiar Italian roles. Ther were dkrnltv In his declamation and beauty In his cantilena. His chant ing In the second act was a lyric utter- ance of exquisite character, while his delivery of the pealing air of the fourth act might have excited the envy of Nourrlt himself. The revival of \La Julve\ was worth while, If only to add this impersonation to Mr. Caruso's catalogue of, successes; and If the opera retains a hold on the public interest It will owo most or us fortune to tho nrtlstlo effort of the famous tenor. BARRYMORE PUTS OFF TRIP TO ENGLAND Will Continue to Draw Crowds to See \The Jest.\ Punch was Immensely excited an.l talked about it to Judy and dropped the stick out of his hand and altogether spoiled the end ot their play so great was their excitement over the newe that John Barrymore was to sail for England yesterday for a visit of one month. This meant his withdrawal from the leading rolo of the success- ful Italian drama, \Tho Jtst.\ In th Plymouth Theatre. Judy declared such a thing had never been heard of before and Punch agreed with her that In his world such a tragedy for a manager had never been dreamed of. Mr. Barry-mor- e Is, with his brother Lionel, th-- popular star of the piece, which Is fill- ing the riymouth Theatre every night. But Mr. Barrymore was said to be ob- durate and his manager, Arthur Hop- kins, was apparently helpless. Punch and Judy could only wag their heads in wonder and repeat, \Did you ever?\ But Mr. Hopkins was not altogether defenceless. He would not stop tho play although his dabhlng young leading man retired. He would try to save a little from the wreck. In his company Is the talented Glulla Varesl. She acls one of the minor roles In the play, but Is one of Its most thrilling participants. So she was drafted into service for the role of Oicmneffo, which Is often played by a woman for Instance, Sarah Bernhardt. Tina dl Lorenzo, and here, Mlml Aguglla. Miss Varesl was to appear at the Sat- urday matinee. The critics were Invited to witness her debut In the course ft their duties, tt was In the early after-roo- n that the clarion notes of Brock remberton, general managpr of the Hopkins enterprises, was heard ovir the telephone of tho newspaper omcea. He brought the news that Mr. Barry- more had reconsidered his determination to sail for Europe, and thereby Imperil the run of one of the most profitable en- terprises In the local theatres. He is to continue to act Oianneffo, Miss Va- resl will stick to her thrilling perform ance of one of the sweethearts of th- - mercenary, and \The Jest\ will con- tinue at the Plymouth with no change ot cast. Spniilslt CnrrlnK Fetch ?2,000. With a total of $72,512 the dispersal of a collection of Spanish art brought to this country b yan American who lived for many years nt Madrid came to an end yesterday at Clarke's Art Rooms. The highest price was $2,000, paid by O. Orselll for a pair of six- teenth century carved Spanish columns. A seventeenth century Flemish tapestry, \An Adventure of Jupiter,\ was sold to G. W. Richardson for $1,650. UNDERTAKERS. Learning from Experience By DRBERTHOLD A. BAER Somebody said that bee stings would cure chronic rheumatism. A man in Homer, N. Y., read this, in a news- paper and determined to try the remedy on himself. When found, he was almost stung to death. I was vividly reminded of this sory when Mr. Frank E. Campbell, founder-propriet- or of The Funeral Church, Broadway at 66th Street, showed me a letter from a downtown banker, signed E. 0. It read in part: \My effort to obtain a permit took me away from my business for two mornings, besides nine calls on the telephone. All this took my time, patience and money. .Now more than ever do I appreciate what your institution is doing.\ \We ofttimes meet people,\ volunteered Mr. Camp-- , bell, \who think that they can do things better than our trained force of men and women. Others, again, think our establishment too elaborate, our preparations too detailed and our service too efficient for them to meet our charges.\ I agree with Mr. Campbell, for I have heard similar remarks. But, is it riot a well known fact that the largest firm can give the best service at the lowest rate? The greater the purchasing power, the lower the cost and the more reasonable the sale price. Then I compared the first letter with another Mr. Campbell handed me, signed by an official of one of the largest Newark, N. J., Corporations. \Please allow me to express in a small way my. appreciation of the service you rendered myself and my wife during my recent bereavement. The courtesy and consideration shown both myself, relatives and friends showed a marked degree of 'finesse' in han- dling such a delicate situation. Each requirement was so carefully attended to and proceeded with such regu- larity that I cannot help but remark upon the efficient organization you have at your institution. I wish to thank every one of you for all the courtesies received. I will not hesitate to let others, who may be placed in the same position that I was, know of what valued ser- vice you can give. \Hoping that when the time docs come that I too must pass on, it will be possible for you to perform these same services for me, thanking you once again, I beg to remain, Yours very sincerely, (Signed) A. R. D.\ After all, success in business depends upon what others say and think of your services and your organi \\4 THE SUN, SUNDAY, '$57,000 IS PAID FOR NOTED ARDEBIL RUG Gem of Late Capt. J. B. Do Lamar's Collection Es- tablishes Bccord. IS BOUGHT BY DUVEENS Grand Total of Sale Is $277,-503- , Highest Ever Bcalizcd for Household Goods. In the midst of considerable excite- ment yesterday afternoon Duveen Bros, gave 1 57,000'for the great mosque rug of Acdebll, the gem of the art collection of the late Capt. J. RDe Lamsr, which was being sold by the American Art Association. This was a record price for a. rug at auction, certainly In America, and prob- ably In the world. Capt. De Lama.r had purchased the rug at the famous Yerkea sale for $27,000, so that In the Inter- vening years the rug had more than doubled In value. The proylous record for a rug at auction was $38,000 for a vrenvlnir sold In tho Marouard auction. In the Yerkes sale two rugs sold for $35,000 and $33,600 respectively. .The rug Is one of the great textile rarities In the world and Is held to be comparable only with' the famous South Kensington rug, which also came from the Ardebll Mosque. The pattern Is In- tricate nnd carefully balanced and the In tho weavlmf Is mas terly. It is closely woven and an .In- genious mathematician has calculated that It contains 400 knots to the inch and thereforo 18,600,000 In all. Most ot tho Important objects In Capt Do Lamar's collection wero In the last day's sale, hence a capacity audi-dlenc- e was attracted, which Indulged In tense and spirited bidding. Objects of luxury come high. So the total amounted to $20,137.50, making a grand total of $277,563.50. This too was a record. There is no other sale of household goods on the lists that equals this total. Ono ot the most enthusiastic buyers at tho sale was F. Campbell, the wel known undertaker.

After the Chopin group and at the end there were many oncores, nnd the Dvorsky \Sanctuary\ was repeated. 01 Mr. Hofmann's performance thele Is little new to bo said. He held his auditors In constant delight by the power of his masterful art. His reading ot Schu- mann's sonata was one og supremo ex cellence In clarity, tonal beauty and poetic Insight. In the afternoon, at Aeolian Hall, George Meader, tenor, gave his first Bong recital hero. This singer, who comes from Minneapolis, received his vocal training In this country. He has sung In Europe in recitals and opera and he Is said to specialize In'tlie role of David In \The Masterslngers.\ He disclosed a voice of fine quality, power and range. As an Interpreter he Is one of the most Interesting of the singers heard here this season. He was especially successful In songs, sung In English, by Schumann, Brahms and Franz. Baltholomew's new song, \Rain In tho Night,\ was In the list. Walter Uotde furnished excellent accompaniments. Serge Prokofleff.

IMPRESSIONISTS ART WILL BE SOLD HERE Masterpieces of Monet and Renoir Offered. A collection of paintings by the great French Impressionists, Monet and Renoir, Is announced by the American Art As- sociation for sale at public auction next January. This Is sure to be one of the most stirring events of the winter. Woiks by these masters still have the power to arouse violent dlscu'fion, and with tholr growing scarcity the. com- petition for them In the auctions be- comes a strugglo between Europe and America as to which shall retain them. The present collection was formed by Arthur B. Emmons, now of Newport but formerly ot New York. Ill health has obliged him to live out of the city, and In consequence he has recently sold his Park avenuo residence and Is giving up his collection. Claude Monet Is represented by nine- teen examples of his best works, which date from 1S73 to 1908 and comprise the following: \Mnlson at Canards,\ palnteM In 1S73 ; \Autonme sur la Seine,\ dated 1874; \Sentler dans l'lsle St. Martin, Vetheull.\ painted In 1880 ; \La De- bacle Series des Olaconla Vetheull,'1 dated 1881; \Le Matin Temps Brumcux Pourvllle.\ painted In 1882 ; \Falalsc aux Petlts Dalles.\ 1884 ; \Champ de Coque-llco- ts Environs de (llverny,\ dated 1885 ; \Champ d'Avolne,\ painted In 1890 ; \La Tamlse le Parlomnnt,'\ 1903 ; \LaTamlse Waterloo Bridge,\ dated 1903 ; \La Ta- mlse au pont de Charing Cross,\ painted In 1303 ; \La Tamlse Waterloo Brldgo Effect de Solell,\ 1303 ; \La Tamlse Waterloo Bridge Solleldans le ,\ dated 1901; \Les Nympheas Paysage tl'eau,\ painted In 1907 ; \Ve-nl- Palais Ducal vu do san Giorgio,\ 190S ; \Venlse Palais Darlo,\ dated 1908 ; \Venlse Palais da Mula.\ 1908 ; and \Vcr.lso Palais Ducal,\ nlro dated 1903.

Grndnntet Here Expected to Give 91,000 Each to Fnnd. Cornell University, which has begun a campaign for an endowment fund of. (10,000,000, expects to collect ? 1.000 each from Its 4,000 graduates resident In this city. The quota of 14,000,000 was flx(d at a meetltng held last night at the headquarters of the campaign committee, 511 Fifth avenue. The new minimum voids the previous announce- ment that no pledge under J 3.000 would be taken. Reports were received that Indicated the quota would be raised. Pledges of JS.000. 59,000 and one of $40,000 came In during the week. Nearly all of those who subscribed early In the campaign have agreed to raise the pledge.
