to seek for excellence in perform
ance rather than of performer. At
each, leading actors are often invited
to assume minor roles. Theater-
goers thus have the comfortable as
surance that every character will re-
ceive adequate representation, and
that the resultant whole will be con-
sistently artistic. The emphasis of
this principle should be character
istic of next years performances ut
the Metropolitan opera house under
Mr.. Conried's direction. The audi
ence will have IN opportunity to
hear, not merely singers, but operas.

Irving Place theater, which he has
directed for ten years, is not a flour
ishing institution. But it's perform

out of proportion to the Importance
Of downtown playhouse presenting

cilities, and his struggles to have hia
theater educational and represe ntative

New York theatrical managers. From
that night in 1872 when he spoke the
prologue at the opening of the Resi-.
denz theater in Vienna and began his
theatrical career, he has advanced
steadily. He acted successfully in
Leipsic and Bremen; he had the man.
agement of the Stadt theater in Bre-
men, where he had his only operate
experience, and in 1877 he came to
the United States as stage director of
the Germania theater. Since that time
he has brought to New York all the
most noted German actors. He has
obtained consistently artistic results
with material means that would have
discouraged most experienced and am
bilious managers. b.,
