German stock Company at the Ger
man House.

The German Theater stock company, OF
Cincinnati. paid it's second visit of the pres
ent season TO the German House last night
and deepened the profound impression Gre
ated by its excellent performance a short
time ago. This organization Is considered
the best German stock company in the
country, and the finished performance last
night went far TO confirm this opinion. The
play presented Karl Morre'S beautiful
comedy drama, :" ) Nullerl," in five acts.
Exact justice would require words of
commentator of the work Of each and
every member OF the company. Perhaps
the acting of Mr.. Max Zilzer in the leading
rCle OF the village vagabond, Miss Louise
Schmid Gabi, Miss Marie Szwirchina as
Agerl and OF Mr.. Clemens Bauer as Stoffel,
one of the farm hands, stood out in holder
relief because of their prominence. Mr..
Zilzcr Is admirably fitted physically and
by temperament for leading position.
Miss Schmid presented a pleasing appear
ance and won frequent bursts of applause
BY her excellent Interpretation OF the SYM
pathetic role of Gabi. delightful feature
OF the performance was the singing of a
number of songs at intervals by Messrs
Zilzer and Pardo and the Misses Adrienne
Baison and Marie Jail. The settings of
the different acts were unusually hand
some and showed the great resources of
the scene loft OF the German House. Mr.
Paul Teichert. under whose direction these
performances are given, announced last
night that the next will take place the first
Friday night in January.
