only that, but 70 persuade the world to build him
costly thcater for its exhibition. Some of the pc
culiar,tics of the Wagner theater already well

however cannot be adequately described without
much more eloquent pen than mine. There Is moth
ing comparable to them even in our best thea
tcrs. The fiat picture let down at the back and
made to do duty house, or field, or river, as
the case may be- is unknown here. Every scene is
built up with the most minute attention to details.
There are no Wings but the realistic construction of
the scene is continued along the sides and down to
the front There are no tapping borders overhead,
but tree sky, root goes mp AZ high the eye can
reach. The stage is not lighted in the usual way
from the wings borders and fOot-l GIFTS but by
continuance which do not understand light seems
to be difused over the whole scene. Sometimes 1t
comes from the back. Moreover, the light il con-
tinually changing. Night and day, sunshine and
storm. follow each other by nice gradations, and
even when all tic action takes place by day there
are shifting lights and shadows as there are lii
nature. The cloud effects are beautiful aud Wagner
employs them freely Transparent vapors float
over the heavens with incessant motion, or hover
around the rocky sleeps For this purpose very thin
pointed GAUGES are used. For heavier Civilizations
an illusion is produced by clouds of steam. scene
