RUSSIAN SINGING
DELIGHTS HEARERS
Cathedral Choir Gives Concert
Of Church and POpu-
lar Airs.
MUSIC WELL PLANNED

The Russian Cathedral Choir gave its
annual concert last evening in Aeoiian
Hall. h singing Of this organisation
has now become one Of the interesting
incidents Of the musical season and the
audience at last nights entertainment
was one OF the largest seen in Aeoiian
Hall In the course Of his busy winter.
programme was arranged somewhat
differently from that Of last winter ana
was most attractive.
The nrst part was devoted 20 music
OF the ritual Of the Russian church and
the second part to songs OF the Russian
people. The church music has already
become known to music lovers through
the ministrations Of Iva Gorokhon's
body OF singers. but the peoples songs
have been sung to only a few. That
they should become known is much 10
be desired. for no other nation is richer
In lyrics Of the kind than the Russians.
The numbers In the second part were
"a 'byiinka.' or narrative lay. by kas-
talsky. The Plume Grass by Shakk.
novsky. Tschaikowsky's Legend a vii
layers chorus from Borodin's "Prince
Igor" soon to be produced at the
Metropolitan. "a "Khorovod," or choral
dance by A~rkangelsky. THE Sur and
the Noon by Gretchaninov and Arkan-
gelsky's Shades Of Night
The old bylinkas Of the folk song pc
Rod were rich In dark tales Of the Cos
sacks and The still more savage Tartars /:
but that OF kastalsky, heard last eve
ming. dealt with the half historic and
half legendary chronicles Of the era OF
the ~pricipalities. the far or days when
Russian nationality was not yet orgsn-
ized and the Scandinavian ideal OF
separation had not been supplanted by
the Byzantine conception OF solidarity.
The music was all interesting and
some OF It was extraordinarily beauti-
full. The church number served TO
give to those who had not previously
heard Russian cathedral singing an Idea
Of the splendid impressiveness OF the
liturgy. Unfortunately the choir did not
sing as we'll as It did last winter. There
seemed to be several new boys In the
ranks and some faces were missing.
Probably some OF the better trained boys
have reached the & when the voices
change n can no longer be employed.
At any rate. the %intonation Of the
choir was faulty much OF the time and
! this greatly married the effect OF the
singing. Those who are acquainted with
Russian choir singing in its native sur
roundings know that bad information is
not one of its common faults. But or
the whole there was some remarkably
| interesting singing in the concert and
the audience must certainly AVE found
the whole entertainment stimulating and
memorable.

bad FIRE IN STUMBLE
At NICK SCH|EBER FARM

Herald:-Nick Schieber and his son,
Joe Schieber, were badly burned
about the face, hands and arms and
are now under the care of a physician
as the result of a burning match be-
ing dropped in the wheat stubble at
the Schieber farm southeast of New
England last Saturday. They will re-
cover but the wounds are very pain
full and will be slow in healing. The
same fire resulted in the loss of
two good horses, four settings Of
grain, a header and two sets of
harness belonging to Schieber, be-
sides four of shocked grain on
the Frank Twombly place. The total
property loss is estimated around
$1,000.
While at work in the field Nick
Schieber threw a burning match in
the stubble, not thinking that the
wheat straw was dry enough to catch
fire. When the fire was discovered
Joe Schieber made an attempt to
drive the header team around the
blaze and by cutting a low swath
make it possible to confne the fire
to a small area. However, when he
got neal the blaze the fire spread so
quickly that the whole outfit was
