Italian Opera Starts With 'Aida' at the Lexington Leopoldo Mugnone, Director, of High Standing in Italy, Leads. A season of Italian opera, conducted by the Italian Lyric Federation, began last evening in the Lexington Opera House with a performance of "Aida." The audience was small In slxe but plentiful In sound.

Its bravl made the rafters ring again and again. But disinterested observers of the proceedings must have wondered what was the occasion of the raptures. There also was rpom for conjecture as to the purpose and expectations of the projectors of the enterprise. for New York has been liberally supplied with operatic delights ever since the middle of last November, and It Is now near the end of a very full season of music. The chief merits of last evening's entertainment were not to be found among the principals.

These, Indeed, were of a time honored type, familiar to all who have watched the history of cheap Italian performances In this town. Power predominated, and the refinements of lyric art hid their diminished heads In the background. The singers were not known to local fame. Armando Caprara, the Ithadames, possessed high notes of extraordinary vigor, and the Aida, Mme. Iva Pacettl, permitted her voice to quiver with emotion when It was heard at all.

A remarkable AmneiHs and an equally astonishing Amonasro were joined with these othera The star of the evening was the conductor, Leopoldo Mugnone, a musical director of-high standing In Italy, whoso knAwledge and authority could not be objured by the unhappy conditions surrounding them. Ho had a fairly good orchestra and a tolerable chorus, both of which responded enthusiastically to his direction. The orchestra did some excellent playing and the chorus some good singing. The excellence of both were principally in phrasinng, nuancc, well graded dynamics, effective treatments of rhetorical pauses and general clarity. Mr.

Mugnone knows every bar of "Aida" and knows it as an artist His methods are spectacular, but possibly they would bo less so In circumstances not so trying as those of last evening. He is unquestionably an admirable operatic conductor. It seemed a pity to see him struggling with adversity. -MARY STUART" FOR CHARITY. Performance Given for Catholic Vonnic Club.

Tha Architectural League of New York last niL'ht prefaced its thirtyt sixth annual exhibit in the Metropol itan Museum of Art with a so far superior to the majority of eles combining amateur and professional talent that It was unfortunate the audience was not larger. The same faithfulness as to historical outline and detail, color and perspective the architects give to their professional work the originators of the pageant applied to the pageant, which was an hour In length and all too short. With Mr, J.

Monroe Hewlett, the president, at Its head, the officlaj board of the leag-ue marched to the stage erected in the main hall of the exhibit for the ceremonies and entertainment. Park Commissioner Gallatin walked with Mr. Hewlett to the platform and llntened to the president thank him for making it possible for the municipality to play the host to tho league for the first time in its thirty-six years. Mr. Gallatin replied In welcoming the league to the museum, commending highly the alms of the organization of architects and their allies In the higher arts.

Mr. Hewlett also announced the following awards offered in a competition by the Eastern Terra Cotta Company: First, to Messrs P. Harold Sterner and Salvatore second, to Messrs. GrenvlUe Rlckert and Benjamin Moscowltz, and third to Francis J. Creamer.

The pageant consisted of a series of living pictures in pantomime of ancient Babylon during the days of Darius. Tho drama of Daniel, the golden Image and the lions was used and the argument was the Scriptural account. It was called "The Den of Lions; a Rhythmical Masque of Babylon the Great in the Manner of Assyrian The vastness of the incompleted basement of the new south wing of the museum formed an excellent setting, which the committee had redecorated elaborately in keeping with the period. Shadowy suggestions of the Babylon of Darius passed before the curtain as Mr. Charles L.

Safford chanted In excellent barytone tones tho opening passages from Scripture. Then the curtains parted upon a scene representing Darius and his court. It was a scene of impressive beauty, upon a scale that would have fitted the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House. Mr. At (Urn In Klnsrlr Role.

Mr. Robert Altkon, sculptor, was the King and Miss Valodla Vestoff, one of the few professionals In the cast of 200 actors and actresses, was the Daniel. The first scene was the Introduction of Daniel, the second was the night of Daniel In the lion's den and the last the deliverance. The llors. Nergal and Nlmrud, were Impressive Nubian beasts, with Messrs.

Charles OulbrandKon and E. J. Paull secreted within their Imitation hides. Care was taken not to ruin the seriousness of picture by simulated stage lions. The beasts merely simulated stage Hons.

Howard Greenley. A large orchestra and the miX'jd choir from Grace Church, Brooklyn, under Mr. Frank Wright, furnished i Instrumental and vocal accompaniment, The audience showed its appreciation of the dramatic and pictorial excellence of the pageant by its silent absorption during each one of the three ncenes and by Its enthusiastic applause during the i Intermissions An effort is bring mado to have the pageant repeated If possible for the entertainment of a ltirger public.
