les Zelda Seguin; Iolanthe, Verona jar
beau; Phyllis, Lillian Russell; Fairies,
Bessie Cleveland, Emile Nash and
Lauretta Milard. Although not new,
'lolanthe" is not hackneyed or
even familiar opera. The llbretto
Is IN Gllbert's usual style, bright, biting
satire, and reflects very cleverly the feel
ings or the English middle classes for the
NOBILITY. Scientific musicians have pro-
nounced "1olanthe" to be more musical
than anything written by Sullivan since
1.-The Sorcerer." Like all OF Sullivan'S
music 1t is graceful, tit and melodiouS, and
IN the hands of liberal management ana
capable company, such as Dutfs. 1t ought 10
De a very charming opera. ''lolanthe' VIII

Suppe's new opera, "A Trip to Africa"
thursday and Friday nights and Saturday
matinee. The action of "A Trip to Africa"
does not take place altogether among the
denlzens OF the land of darkness, as the
name would imply, but principally in the
Orient. 1t is full of comical situations and
bright, sparkling music.
FOYER FRIvOLITIES.
The Chicago Newsletter gives it out
straight that Harry Kellar and Louise Mon
tague were married a short time ago. Why
didn't somebody throw an old shoe after
them?
Verona Jarbeau is the Yum-Yumest Yum
Yum of all the "Alikado's" Yum-Yum. Every
time Jarbeau kisses Nanki-PoO there is an
earthquake in Japan.
Eyes, st. Paul has made wonderful growth
In the two years silIceI was here last. But
L don't seem to have kept pace with Its
growth" soliloquized John L. Raymond as he
cast his eye over the slim receipt account the
closing night of his engagement.
~ have been Snowman for twenty-five
years. and st. Paul is the first place that
have ever been criticised by newspapers" re-
marked Kelar, while the freight of anger
flashed in his spiritualistic eyes. Kellar
should remember that St. Paul is the first
town he has struck where they had newspa-
pers and capable critics.
Notwithstanding his great success as an
opera manager, j. G. Duff isn't q bit stuck
up. His head never swells, and he is the
painest man in the company.
Zelda Seguin's katIsha is a picture of art
that st. Paul people have not forgotten.
If there is anything in the world John T.
Raymond does love it is to match dollars.
Verona Jarbean is going to be star on
her own hook next season, so the New York
Theater says, and her new husband is to be
her manager.
There will be quite a number of theater
parties during the Duff opera engagement.
