YESTERDAY AT THE OPERA.
Tristan ind Isolde" and "Romeo ct Ju.
Hette" All in ono Day

Tristan ind Isolde was given at the
Metropolitan Opera House yesterday after
noon. The excitement Of the fire at the
Casino. just across the street. affected the
nerves OF some Of the singers 80 that sooth-
ing measures had TO be undertaken. and
the performance was somewhat lato in be-
ginning Mr. DIPPED appeared as Tristan
for the frat time and made az honorable
effort 10 I'll the requirements OF the role.
All that this singer does Is based on in
telIgent study, bu; Ike other human beings
he has his limitations and like many other
artists Of the stage he fails TO discover them.
Tristan is a heroic figure and he demands
heroic Interpretation. Furthermore It is
now a well recognized fact that the music
of the part demands abundant power of
voice and all the resources Of splendidly
sustained cantllenl.
Mr.. Dippel does not meet these require
ments. He is not heroic in appearance
or action, and he has not broad and huont
style Of singing. He was least successful
in the beautiful duet OF the second act,
and most 30 in the excited explanatory
parts of the scene Of delrium in the third.
He was honest and sincere in his attempt
at the part. and It may be that in the future
he will grow into it; but yesterday his per-
Torrance seemed TO be an evidence OF
misguided ambition.
Nine. Nordica was in excellent voice
and gave splendid impersonation Of
Isolde. Mr.. Van Rooy "a Kurrendl and
Miss Walker az Brdngdne cooperated with
her in providing the striking features Of
! the performance. which was characterized
/ on the whole by rude vigor rather than
/ poetic warmth. Much Of this WAS due TO
I the insisteuce of the orchestral department,
| which was generally too aggressive.
In the evening, Romeo ct Jul!ette was
! sung to one Of the smallest audiences of
( the season. The daughter Of the Capulets
was represented by Nine. Ackte, whose
| strident style of tone formation robbed
/ her music OF all grace and passion, 1t is
a pity that this soprano has acuiTed the hard
/ and cold tone so popular in France. Her
voice is one Of considerable natural beauty
and much power.

THE NETHERLANDS HAS aRIEv.
ANcE OF LONG STANDING
AGAINST VENEZUELA.
PRESS INSISTS on yI6oRous ACTION
MATTER LIKELY TO BE TAKEN
UP WHEN FRENCH DISPUTE
HAS BEEN SETTLED.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The acute
situation between France and Ven
ezuela has for some time past dis
tracted attention from the quarrela
which the Venezuelan government al
ready had on hand with her neigh
bors. Some diplomats here familiar
with the conditions in that part Of
South America feel that in the near
future other trouble may be expected
and that some day the trouble be
tween The Netherlands and Venezuela
may be renewed, possibly leading to
an outbreak between the two coun
tries. The chief complaint of The
Netherlands government is the way in
which the Venezuelan customshouse
officers exercise their right of search
It is alleged that many times without
due cause the customs officers bring
Dutch ships to their ports and keep
the crew practically prisoners. The
Venezuelan government on it's side
has made several complaints about
the smuggling trade which is kept on
from Curacao into the harbors of Ven
ezuela and which consists chiefly OF
firearms. For the last thirty years
there has been a law in Curacao for
bidding the expectation of firearms
but the large colony of Venezuelan
political exiles, who come to the isl
and to be near their old home and
still be free to make new plots against
President Castro, make 1t extremely
difficult for the Dutch authorities to
enforce that law.
From both sides protests have been
made, but 1t is charged the, Venezu
elan government has followed the
same course as in most of its diplo,
matte enterprises and the Dutch de
mands have never been fully an.
swered.
The Dutch newspapers have begun
to insist upon more vigorous action by
their government and it is felt here
that after the French matter has been
settled this will probably be the next
trouble In the Caribbean sea.

sHRINkAGE IN GOLD DUST.
Claims for 100000 Against Seattle
Assay Office.

Seattle, Dec. IA special to the
Post-Intelligencer from Fairbanks,
Alaska, states that three banks of that
place will make claims against the
government for gold dust which they
shipped to the Seattle assay office on
their own account and for miners in
that district. The aggregate Of these
claims, it is estimated, will amount to
approximately 100000. OF this sum
the Fairbanks Banking company has a
single claim for $4,000, representing
the shrinkage alleged to have been re-
ported on a series Of large shipments
last spring.
