CHALIAPIN VISITS LONDON.

Ho has nothing against the Eng- fish language except that he has not yet succeeded in mastering it suficiently to sing in it.

Perhaps he is still deterred by his recent New York experience, when, after experimenting" with a song in English at a concert, he heard

a lady exclaim: "How dreamy and exotic when these. Slava sing in their own tongue.".

Speaking in snatches of English and several other languages, he told a Daily Chronicle representa- tive recently how it is that he' has never sung at Covent Garden before.
