It closed in a blaze of glory Saturday night, the event being the rendition of Richard Wagner's "The Flying Dutch- man." The fact that an opportunity was presented to hear this famous prb- duction under conditions as favorable as are to be found in the West, made everyone look forward with eager an- ticipation to the closing concert of the series. It can be said with truth that no hopes were disappointed. Althongh there were no doubt many who could not appreciate the entire production, yet no one could help realizing that it was a masterpiece finely executed. If the Diitchman's opening recitative and aria were without meaning to some, all at least could enjoy the sailors' and the spinners' choruses. Mme. Johanna Gadski as Senta and Mr. David Bisphham as the Dutchman had the leading parts. Both were en- thusiastically received. It is seldom that a selection is heard of such qual- ity and power as the closing scene in the third act between Senta and the Dutchman. Mme. Gadski clearly dem- onstrated her right as the queen of Wagner opera. Whether in the softer and tenderer responses to Eric or in the passionate scene with the Dutchman, her voice possessed the flexibility, sweetness and strength which are to be found only in those wonderfully en- dowed. Mr. Bispham caried his role admirably. When one considers that the part he sang was one of the most difficult to be found in any opera, one realizes the more that his success is well deserved. Mr. William H. Rieger orchestra and the grand chorus. His long and patient work with the chorus was also the cause of much of their success. The work of the orchestra must be commended. It may easily be imagined that the effect of the opera without such an accompaniment as that furnished by the orchestra sould have been greatly diminished. Saturday afternoon there was an or- chestral matinee with Miss Janet Spencer, William H. Lavin, Miss Elsa von Grave and Alberto Jonas as artists. Easy Victory. The 'Varsity easily defeated the Mich- igan Agricultural College team Satur- day afternoon in an eight-inning game by a score of 20 to 1. With the excep- tion of the 'Varsity's i1.)tting there were no features. The 1 . - of the 'Varsity was somewhat cha.:ed. Mat- teson played short stop in pic.- of Gil- bert, who is laid up with a Ia.. arm, and Davies took Matteson's place in left field. The score: Innings 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 R. I. E.

Miller, The Dream of Eric and the response to large attendance. Newhausel, Herig, Bonham, Benson, Senta were especially well rendered.-Mr. The 'Varsity is now batting in better Cook. W. A. Howland as Daland easily main- tained his reputation for operatic in- terpretation. He put both feeling and force into his work and on the whole was most pleasing. Miss Janet Spencer as Mary did not have such a difficult role as the others, but was highly suc- cessfulin msking her part felt when she did appear. The chorus' work was fully up to the standard. The sailors'chorus, the spin- ners' chorus and the responses of the maidens and the crew were perhaps the most popular parts of the whole pro- duction. If any discrimination can be made between the chorus work of the men and that of the ladies, it must be held that the work of the latter was somewhat stronger than that of the men. The ladies sang in perfect uni- son and with remarkable precision, which at times the men failed to do. Much of the success of the production is due to Prof. A. A. Stanley, who showed himself to be equal to the diffi- form than ever before. This will be the last game before the Western trip to Chicago and Illinoi.-. The team will leave Wednesday and meet Chicago Thursday. They will rest Friday and play Illinois Saturday. S.-L. A. Officers. The S. L.
