and financially, it Quite satisfied
everybody.
The program was divided into three
parts; a regular concert by the two
clubs, a minstrel Bhow, and an "op
eretta comique." In the first part
there was some genuine music and yet
of such a variety as to appeal to every
taste. The curtain rose with the club
singing 'old "Scarlet and Cream," a
song that has come,' now, thanks to
the Glee. Club, to mean something
among Nebraska students, so that
from the beginning the audience was

A BRIEF REVIEW
THE DELIGHTFUL GRAND OPERA,
MME. BUTTERFLY.
Is an Interesting Production With Mel
lifluous Music and Dramatic
Climaxes By Puccini.
"Mmo Butterfly," tho story about
which Puccini has woven his melodic
Ideas is already familiar to many stu
dents thru tho press notlcos of tho
coming production of tho opera in
Lincoln. Briefly, It has to do with a
Japanese maiden's love for an Ameri
can naval officer, their marriage and
tho subsequent desertion of tho brido.

The husband returns after three
years, during which Mme. Butterfly re
mains faithful, waiting patiently for
their reunion. The element of tradgey
Is afforded by Pinkerton's arrival with
an American bride, and the self des
truction of Mme. Butterfly. John
Luther Long and DaVld Belasco had
already made the poetic tale familiar
to Americans, through their one act
play of the same name. From this
effort sprang the libretto, prepared by
Illlca and Glacosa, of the opera. In its
English form the work is dignified,
artistic and of deep human appeal.
The contrast ot true conjugal and ma
ternal love with faithlessness is
brought out with telling effect and the
manner in which these emotions were
portrayed last Monday night, served
to stir the' sensibilities ot the auditors
through an unquestionably high stan
dard ,ofdramat!q art. At no time does
the process ot the story, .as ,told in mu
sic, word and action, sink below this
artistic plane. , . -
