Chaliapine Again Rouscs
Cataclysnnic Enthusiasm
His Performance i'm ssBoris
Codunoff" an IInpersonaiion
Probably Never ExcelIcd

The amazing art of Feodor Chala-
pine again stirred huge audience to
the utmost enthusiasm at the Metro
rolitan Opera House last evening, in
second performance OF "Boris Godun-
off," The Russian artists superb voice,
which appeared even richer than at the
previous performance, WAS generously
poured forth in noble flood of tone
The spell of this voice, the tragic force
and emotional sincerity of Chaliapine's
acting, the eloquence Of his facial play,
the mans towering personality, left an
unforgettable impression and combined
in making probably the greatest imper-
sonation ever seen on the stage of the
Metropolitan Opera House.
Chaliapine's companions in the cast
included Mines. Delaunois, Howard and
Matzcnauer and Messrs. Fertile, Mar
dones and Ananian. But the eyes and
ears of the audience were intent upon
the central figure of this tragic drama.
Nothing else mattered.
Chaliapine was recalled again and
again, and was cheered to the echo.
