So long as boxing lives, the first
International battle for the world :
heavyweight boxing championship
will occupy a prominent place In the
record books.
John c. Heenan, known as the
"Benecia Boy" represented Ameri-
ca, and Tom Sayers, who was really
little more than welterweight' car
ried the British colors.
The men met at Farnborough,
England. April II, 1850. on the turi
under London prize ring rules. The
fight went AZ rounds. lasting two
hours and 81 minutes and the ref
cree called It draw.
For SO rounds each contestant
took a terrific beating, with sayer'
far the worse off. while Heenan wa'
almost completely blind. but muef
the stronger.

MISS CUCE GIVES RECITAL.

Miss francesca Cuce, soprano, gave
her first song recital here last evening
at Town Hall. She was accompanied
by the pianist, Adriano Ariani, who
filed the place Of Vladimir Arensky. in
disposed. Miss Cuce is a native of italy.
but she received her vocal training in
this country. More than this, she is a
graduate of Columbia University. This
last fact had an evident bearing of its
own upon her delivery. She had poise
and ease. and no little intelligence for a
young singer. Her interesting pro-
gramme had an unconventional arrange
ment. The old italian airs, usually in
the first group, came at the end. She
gave standard German songs in Eng
lish. Among these were Richard
Strauss's Fer since thine eyes returned
my glances" ana Longing Hearts"
Miss Cuce showed sensiblity and
natural instincts as a singer. II was n
pity that she appeared before the public
too soon. Her lovely voice of light lyric
quality was not well produced and her
English diction was faulty. With SO
much charm and feeling and other gifts
as she showed she may develop her
powers further.

MISS CRESPI PLAYS STRAUSS.
Vfolinist Heard in Sonata by Ger
man Composer.

Miss Valentino Crespi, violnist. gave
recital yesterday afternoon in Aeolian
Hall. The chief numbers on her list
were Richard Strauss sonata for violin
and piano and the concerto of Jan ST.
belius. The latter composition was IN
troduced to local music lovers by Miss
Maud Powell in 1895 and between that
time and yesterday. so far as the records
show was performed only once, namely.
by Theodore Spfering. at a Philharmonic
concert on March ID, 1911. The diff
culties of the concerto as we'll as the
forbiddlng character of much of its
music have undoubtedly caused violin
lists TO shun II.
Miss Crespi played ii with much spirit
and with feeling, but she was heard to
better advantage in parts of the Strauss
sonata, which is by no means all cakes
and ale. The young woman disclosed a
somewhat crude technic and frequent
uncertainties Of intonation. but her tone
had vitality and her bow life and elas-
ticity. Temperament warmed her per-
formance and made interesting much
that might otherwise have repelled by
reason of It's want of elegance. In the
slow movement of the sonata. however,
Miss Crespi played with beauty of tone
and real finish Of phrasing. This was
the most satisfactory display of her art.

"Lohengrin" was sung at the Metro
politan Opera House last night, the sec
ond of the new season. The cast was
one made familiar in last winters per-
formances-Mme. Easton as Elsa. Nine,
Matzenauer as Ortrad, Mr.. Sembach as
Lohengrist, Mr.. Whitehill as TeTanlund
and Mr.. Leonhardt as the Herald. Mr..
Bodanzky occupied the conductor 5
chair.
The opera was given with the Eng
Iish text used last season. There had
been no announcement that this text
would be retained and some operagoers
wondered whether, since some other
Wagner creations would be sung in Ger
man, this one also would recover Its
mother tongue. But the various and
complicated exigencies Of opera COM
panies made 1t advisable to hold fast
that which had been obtained.
Possibly many of those who ATTENDED
the performance may not have viewed
1t as a brilliant demonstration OF the
working efficiency and permanent quail
| ity Of the operatic organization which
has been built up under Mr.. Gatti-Ca-
sazza's direction. Yet, considering the
fact that q new opera is In preparation
| for Saturday afternoon and that Nine.
CALI CurcPs new comrades needed some

seems quite unlikely that "Lohengrin'
had many rehearsais.
| Nevertheless. one sauntering casually
into the Metropolitan last evening might
have supposed that instead Of 1t being
the second night the season had been
going on for two or three months. that
routine had resumed It's familiar sway
and that nervous excitement had given
way to perfect calm. There was consid-
cradle singing out of tune, but this vocal
defect flourishes in all seasons and all
ages.
For the rest It needs only to be re-
corded that there was also too much
loudness in many parts Of the perform
ance, but this is easily traceable to the
limitation Of rehearsals. In other re-
