FOYER GOSSIP.

Comic opera of the class placed before
The st. Paul public by the Wilburs, can
scarcely be called artistic in any sense,
yet that it pleases the public has been
evidenced by the packed houses which
have marked the progress of the engage
ment here so far. The secret of success
in production of the best known comic
operas on the American stage to-day
seems to consist in the amount of horse
play that can be crowded into each act,
to the sacrifice OF everything artistic
there way have been in the piece as
originally written. For the most part
the members of the company now play
ing here are capable of much more
artistic work than any they
have done in the operas put
on in st. Paul. The reason
for the presence of the almanac gags
and the transparent jokes which bury
the originality of the operas upon which
they are forced, is that said gags and
jokes convulse the audiences with
laughter and gain recalls for the jokers,
while the opera itself without the low
comedy introduced would be pretty GER
tain to fall fiat. The antics and ancient
jokes of the comical character cause
spasms of laughter, while the portions
of the opera most to be admired from
