Scottish Caution.

Certainly the cautious Scot spirit
pervnded the opinions OF the Scottish
architect who was called upon to erect
a. building in England upon the long
lease system, 80 common with Angli-
can proprietors, but quite new to our
friend. When he found the proposal
was to build upon the tenure Of 900
years he quietly suggested: Gould ye

RENAISSANCE OF
MELODRAMA SEEN

The fascination which musical com
edy, with all its sameness and repet-
tion, has for the American pubic sug-
gests q constantly growing sentiment
toward the light and giddy on the stage
and the decline of tragedy as q drawing
card, says a dramatic critic IN the Den
YER Republican, A retrospective view
shows a surprising lack Of tragic pro-
ductions-in fact the American drama
tist practically writes none. Barring
some notable efforts of stephen Phll-
lips which were more successful arJlSt-
icallv than i'm any other way, the
American stage has produced no tfaSS-
dies Of late years. and anything ap-
Droaching that style Of theatrical pro-
duction has met with no commefclai
success.
In this conclusion that tragedy is
practically dead in America at the
present time. it is not to be confused
with melOdrama. Even the tragedies OF
Shakespeare and Ibsen, in class by
themselves and permanent works OF ART
from literary stondpoint, are only
successful from an artistic point or
view. or financially at intermittent pc
riods when made so by the personality
of some noted interpreter. But melo-
drama is play of optimism, where the
elements of good and bad war, and the
GOOD triumphs in the end The physical
Intensity is quite as important as the
mental, overbalancing the mental in
the lower class houses.
MANY critics believe that the tendency
Of the American writer's is toward mel
odrama and that the great American
dramatic literature will eventually
reach its apotheosis in this branch OF
the art. The slump in melOdrama OF
the past two years does not indicate
that it is losing its hold upon the Amer
ican public, but rather that the public
is demanding better melodrama; that
plays produced in the higher class
houses are assuming n melodramatic
tinge. although still termed dramas;
that the productions OF the better
houses are taking a sensational tend
ency which attract many of those who
formerly could get "thrills" only in the
cheapest houses. The cheaper houses
will still draw big audiences with good
melodrama, but it is harder to get than
buresque.
