A brief overview of the

We have now in Jilemnice in the year 1913, and, therefore in
the period when the popularity of spiritism (brought Bohemia by
as early as 1880) is at its peak. At first it had performed
mostly by Kckonse weavers at Trutnov, but soon it spread all the
county, and so from the beginnung of the new century, there had
been plentiful spiritistic seances at Semily, Nova Paka, Jelezny
and Fielemnice, attended by young and old people - a physician
sits there along the undertaker, a clerk by the side of a
blacksmith, a together with a gendarme. The farming, and
cosequently, all of the is quite naturally being neglected,
and the demoralized.
That is why the new Captain has been appointed. He is
supposed to rid authorities of bothersome spiritists, who have
refused to pay taxes. On the day Captain is due to take his
duties, A Prague student Atrament comes to Jilemnice. He is a
of a doubtful character, but he is extraordinarilly
witty. Besides that he is thoroughly in spiritism...

"Among the Hills a Way"

inn does not indeed exhibit a bountiful splendour; neither
does it host an exclusive society. Vigorous countryside enjoy
themselves here the best they can in accord with their and
intellects - both are half empty. They obtain their delight by
means of cheap liquors and racy talk. Standing out like an
jewel in a dungheap, the passionate between Atrament and
Calamaria begins to here. The first night they spend
together is filled eerie occult practices.
Approximately at the same moment a feast is being held at
the Jilemnice castle to the new lord in his dominion.
Satrapold encounters the castle's inferior and liquor
specialities, boastfully.

"I Don't Want, Sirs to Pester Ears..."

The next day the Duke goes hunting with his suite. Fiercely a
a deer he loses his companions, and in the darkness he falls
with his horse a deep pit - the bear-trap. By pure chance
Calamaria is strolling through the forest, magic herbs. As
soon as Satrapold, covered numerous bruises, manages to pull
himself out of the pit, he sees a apparition. In the silvery
haze of the scenery, embroided with a thousand rays from the
setting sun, a gleaming of an aetheric fairy resides with a
full of strange muck.
During the first few momemnts think that these are the first
of his afterlife and he falls into furious melancholy. But
then the beautiful with Calamaria tretas his wounds and
he falls hopelessly in with her. Although Calamaria refuses his
offer to walk her home, she an invitation to the castle.
Satrapold, thought, does not the slightest idea who she might
be...

"A Dark Forest All Around..."

"That Magnificent Deer Has in the Bush..."

In the morning Satrapold calls Blether, the head of the castle's
stables, and tells him to saddle up a new horse. The day the two
of them are going to go to Spiritus' inn., the nest; they
do so in disguise so nobody will recognize them. (This is a new
technique of espionage.)Satrapold is by Calamaria's presence
in the public house, where she serves spirits. With the of a
magic the Captain's consciousness vanishes and his body and soul
are flooded an emotion completely opposed to the desire to
obliterate in the Krkonose slopes.

"My Captain..."

A few later Satrapold, due to his disguise, is attacked by the
drunk Atrament, and Blether offers his captain an excuse to
Atrament. At the same time Blether also Satrapold in very plain
language who is. His explenation is quite naturally different
from satarpold's ideals and instantly falls into disgrace with
his Captain. In the he is slapped thoroughly, and then in the
the Captain, in an attack of rage, kicks him over a Persion
rug.

"By the of Fate I'm Haunted..."

This aria concerns the most tragical of the operetta. It is
in its substance a confession of a man of character and dicey
morals. Kicked over and humilitated, Blether hurries the castle
to Spiritus' inn to his services to the spiritists. Since they
have already known him for time, he leaves misunderstood for
Jelezny Brod, where he drinks a fish. Well - for his whole life
he has been accustomed to some master blindly, and so has life
suddenly all meaning for him. This probably is the strongest of
the motives for his desperate suicide, committed by into the
wild Jizera rapids from the Rieger's pn his way from Jelezny
Brod, UC.
Blether is killing himself, Atrament passes the boring time in
jail by means of somnambulous sleep. All of sudden he to draw
thoughtlessly patterns on the wall of his dungeon with a
broken brick - medial drawings.A praemurdial reveals to him
that the man who poses as the Captain is - just Satrapold's
treacherous aide Poebeldorf, who a vile scheme with the
intention to steal from the Jilemnice castle and to flee to
Cairo enormous wealth. He was sent to the Jilemnice castle to
prepare everything for the arrival of the Satrapold, who is
expected tomorrow.

"Oh, My Sir, Do You Remember When..."

Calamaria a visit to Satrapold (the false one) in the castle and
after many of cajoling Poebeldorf, he agrees to free Atrament,
but on the condition that she will go with Poebeldorf to hunt
day. (This is so that he can kidnap her and take her along with
him on a horse, which is waiting in the stables with the
saddle bags full of jewels.)

"Everything Is My Whim..."

They leave for the castle dungeons to Atrament. As soon as the
are open, Calamaria notices the drawings on the dungeon wall,
from which she can clearly read what the villain has
schemed. She does not hesitate to cast the in his face, and
he instantly pushes her into the and locks the bars. In a panic
he runs the stables, where his horse is waiting with the
contraband intending to flee immediately. That moment he is
surprised by the fanfares, announcing the real arrival.
Satrapold, having inspected the dungeons, learns the truth and
the turns to Poebeldorf's disadvantage - he is put into the
instead of Atrament.

"Glory, Hauptmann...!"

The operetta ends with a feast in public house; it is
revealed that holds no grudge against spiritism...
