The river at Louisville remained

There was rise OF over two feet

In spite OF the fact that last night was
the closing performance Of the Hammer

100 brief Washington season, there were
plenty OF new thrills, the most impor-
tant Of which was the singing Of Nine.

she sang at the request Of President

Mr.. Hammerstein's season-"opera on a
first-class scale" with no makeshifts, no
holding back Of big stars, but a gener-

The old and the new italian schools of
opera were heard side by side last night.
when 1.-THE Daughter of the Regiment. y
by Donizettl, was followed by Leonca-
vallo's II Pagliacci" The difference be-
tween these two works is marked. and
lies chiefly IN the method of orchestration
employed
Donizettl is all attenuated sweetness
and tenderness. with here and there a
gay note or two, especially in THE
Daughter Of the Regiment" which is an
opera bOuffe, If one must strictly classify.
Unlike Lucia" the story has happy
ending, and the principal role allows the
