4 Plea For
The Russian Anthem
From, Ar, Enthusiast
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Your article in The Sunday
Tribune on our so-called national an
them was good reading. l have written
Senator's, Congressman, magazines and
papers for years urging our need of
national anthem, hut without result
There is bill before the House now,
sponsored by Representative McFadden,
of Pennsylvania, to make "The Star
Spangled Banner" our national anthem.
1t is huge mistake. l play the organ
occasionally for meetings. For "The
tar-Spangled Banner" the audiences
Use perfunctorily, as though it were
painful, but never sing, while if "Amer
lea" is played they sing spontaneously
and heartily. 1t is perfectly true that
a national hymn should be the re-
suit of choice by the people, and yet
with "Dixie" and "Marching Through
Georgia" the most popular tunes in
America to-day, l doubt the success of
such method of evolution. Of course,
we have had competitions galore, but
the result has always been one prize
poem to which composers were invited
to set music, regardless of it's lyric
value. The result-nothing.
have proposed to certain Congress-
men that Congress invite poems, select
ing all of value and offering this COM
pilation for musical setting. Then let
these also be published and distributed
broadcast for comment. I think some
thing might come of it. At any rate,
could wish that some one with your in
fuence might stir up the question.
am no Russian, but when l play the
glorious old Russian hymn, now in the
discard, l am thrilled through and

IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC AND MUSICIANS
A S,Uarm, of Butterflies

a greater success in Anglo Saxon than
in Latin lands. In Italy it's premiere
was indeed failure, whether because
the music uses Japanese themes, and
was therefore not wholly Italian, or
because of the naIvet6 of the story,
opinions may differ. Puccini rewrote
some of the music, and since then the
tive land, but it has never held the
position of "Boheme" or "Tosca" In
America, however, we worship it, and
to-day it is given perhaps twice as
much as any other opera. In New York
alone the week before last it was pre-
sented by three different companies
at the Metropolitan Opera House, at
the Lexington Theatre, and at the
Park Theatre.
The first Butterfly in America was
Eliza Szamozy, an Hungarian soprano,
who sang in English at the Garden
Theatre with Henry W. Savage's COM
pany. Miss Szamozy's impersonation
was an admirable one and was the talk
of the town until three months later,
on February IL, 1907, Miss Geraldine
Farrar presented 1t at the Metropoli-
tan Opera House. From that night
Miss Farrar has been the Butterfly of
Butterflies. Announce Miss Farrar in
"Madama Butterfly" and the suburban
trains are doubled, the subway over
flows, and if it is matinee, between
the hours of and $3.50 Huyler's turns
itself into maelstrom. The handker-
chief industry owes to Miss Farrar q
gigantic debt.
But there have been other Butter
flies. Vocally the most satisfactory Of
all was Miss Emmy Destinn. Miss Des-
tim sang the music gorgeously and in
Eastern lands her popularity would I'M
doubtedly exceed Miss Farrar's East
ern poets have way of referring to
their heroines as ooh, moon Of my
delight" Of later days Butterflies
have flown in upon US in swarms. We
have had blue Butterflies and green But
terfies and purple Butterflies. Miss
Marcella Craft was first heard with the
San Carlo company. Her impersona-
ton was poignant, though her voice at
times seemed worn. Miss Maggie
Teyte sang it this season at the Park.
She looked the part and sang it beau
tlfully, though she was a little hard
and sophisticated. Perhaps M Lott
would have recognized in her his
Madame Chrysantheme. Then Miss
Claudia Muzio attempted it. She was
Butterfly gigantica, sort of jap
anese Tosca. OF course we mustn't
forget the Butterfly who, press agents
both of Mr.. Rabinoff and of Mr.. Cam
paninl have assured US, is the "real
thlng"-Mme. Tamaki Miura. Nine
Miura is a real Japanese, but that she
is the real thing" may be doubted
Clo-Cio-San, after all, is an Ameni-
can who sings Italian music with Jap
anese trimmings. The "real thing" in
Clio io-San probably remains Miss
Farrar. Perhaps, too, there isn't any
real thing" or if there were we
wouldn't like her.
