Another most useful official Of the com

years ago, though he looks nearer thirty

Among his school chums was Arthur
Schnitzler the famous Austrian dram
atist whose "Auatol' has been one Of
the sensations of the present season.
Mr.. We'll began his career as an actor
and light opera barytone, making his
debut at Pressburg as the Prince in Boo
caccio.' The organizations with which he
has been connected since coming TO
America are many. He was with the
American Opera Company in 1885, with
Adelina Patti during her Mexican tour
in 1886, with Abbey, Schoeffel and Grau
at the Metropolitan and also with Stanton
in the German opera Company at the
same house For seven years he was
stage manager and sang barytone roles
with Rudolph Aronson at the Casino in
operas like Poor Jonathan" "Nanon"
and THE Vice Admiral" From 1887 TO
1883 he was librarian of the Theodore
Thomas Orchestra. and also one Of the
tympanists. For three years he was man
ager OF the Vaudeville Club Of the Met
ropolitan Opera House and proprietor Of
the American Roof Garden. Then he was
with Miner and Brooks at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Theatre. and business manager for
EleanOra Duse. He was also assistant
director of the Irving Place Theatre
under Heinrich Conried, and just before
coming TO the Metropolitan he was for a
year director Of the Irving Place com

Much has been written and more has
been talked regarding those transcendentd
creatures subsisting. in the public estima-
ton. chiefly upon air and art-the oper-
attic gods and goddesses whose winter
Olympus is the stage of the metropolitan
Opera House. Their lives, their loves,
their husbands, their children and their
automobiles have been sung 70 hundred
different tunes on a hundred different
lvres their photographs rival the stars IN
number. and their heart thrObs palpitate
through the illustrated supplements Of
half the world. To the great public the
.'Vissi d'Arte" Of "Tosca" is their apothe-
osis. Let us then, for once let them rest in
that Walhalla of the popular imagination,
without even questioning the reality OF the
imaginincs. We are to speak Of very
different world. yet a world that for those
very artists is vital necessity-the men.
and in their duties they are no less artists.

SIGNOR GATTl-CASAZZA.

In chief control Of the Metropolitan
Opera Company is Giulio Gatd-Casazza

very few Mr.. Gatti is little more than
name. In an age when self-adveruse-
rnent IS considered the prime essential for
success this quiet, unobtrusive Italian gen
tleman has deliberately chosen TO keep
himself from the public eye. Yet to those
whom business calls into contact with him
he has always been one Of the most ac-
cessible Of men. He scarcely ever leaves
the opera house, except TO sleep and eat
Though he has in the grand tier box Of
his own. he is rarely TO be found in it,,
preferring during the performances to
stand in the extreme rear OF the space
behind the orchestra rail- Here he may be
seen at almost every performance, abso-
lutely alone his hands clasped behind his
back. apparently but another one OF the
enthusiasts about him, enthusiasts who
have paid 81 90 for the privilege Of stand
ing during the performance. When tired
of standing OF of settling details in his
private Office he usually enters the office
Of Mr.. Guard. the press representative,
and. throwing himself upon bench, chats
informally in French or Italian TO all who
may come in.
Mr.. Gatti was originally a naval en-
sineer and is the son Of Senator GATH
