They say that it would be unconstitu-

De Wolf Hopper will present his latest
comic opera, "Dr. Syntax," at the Baldwin
Theater tomorrow night. This work will
be the last produced during his present en-
gagement.
The plot OF 'Dr. Syntax" is founded on
the German drama "Aschenbroedel. The
lyrics and lines of the opera were written
by Cheever Goodwin and the music was
supplied by Woolson Morse, composer
who is inclined to be tuneful and spright-
Iy The leading role is that of good
natured, up-to-date professor ir young
ladies' seminary, who busies himself IN
trying to make the course of true love run
smooth for his fair pupils. This character,
as De Wolf Hopper impersonates it, ap-
proaches nearer TO Legitimate comedy than
his role in Wang"
Edna Wallace Hopper appears in "Dr.
Syntax" as Merope Mallow. Brazilian
heiress, and Bertha WaltzinGer, Alice
Hosmer. Ida Lester, Alfred Klein and the
other leading members OF the company
all have parts suited to their talents.
E. E. Rice's extravaganza 1892" will
succeed the Hopper engagement at the

stage since Paula Tanqueray obtruded her
personality upon it. The following quota
tion from the Era, which is the English
actors guide, philosopher and friend,
speaks for itself:
.''Trilby" will be the success OF the London
season, into which We have little doubt it will
run in July. 1t is not, of course, an "epoch-
making" work. But the play-going public has
been so siekened with gritty squslor and pur-
poseless pessimism in plays that it is flying

Geological research, to associate for while with

triumphed es it deserved to triumph.
The absence of ''purposeless pessimism"
was no factor in the welcome that San
Francisco gave TO "Trilby." for here,
though novelties are few and far between,
the drama has never been turned into a
school for debating unsavory problems.
