llIlca a Creative G9nlus.

Luigi Ilica, the famous poet and IL.
brettist who recently died ut his villa,
Cnstel Aquatic, at Milan, created the
plots for more operas than any other
writer for the last quarter century in
Italy. His most famous operas were
written in collaboration with Giuseppe
Glncosa, and are "Boheme," "Fedorn,"
"Manon" and "Adriana." He wrote
"Iris" and "Maschere" with collabora-
tion, and has at least forty less famous
operas to his credit. Many composers
drew upon him for plot and lines, says
the Detroit News.
Although he was fifty-eght years
old when Italy entered the world war.
nlica volunteered for service and was
with the artillery for one year. He
suffered fall from which he did not
fully recover, and was forced to give
up military duty.
Fills latest important opera score
was that Of "Isabeau," for which Mas
cagni supplied the music. The opera
was received with indifference, which
discouraged Illica. There was cOnsid-
ernblc discussion about attentions
made in the librett0 by tile composer
and director, and Illica said the pro-
duction gave an entirely wrong inter.
probation of his work.
