Mr. Wilson's buffoonery is unctupus nnd rollned in its expression , and no makes n de lightfully absurd divertissement of his role of Kinp Anso IV. Miss Marie Janson's plac ? as Lazuli is taken by Miss Lulu Glasor.'who nnturallv suffers by th'o inevitable compari son. Miss Glasor's soprano is hoard to nil- vantaco in ono solo , but In the dialogue its troDIe quality is rather too much in evidence. Her dramatic action is tentative and lacking in fullness , but sprightly and graceful. The supporting company is excellent and the chorus unusually largo. The scenery is very line , and the oriental splendor of the cistutnlng is dazzling. Mr. Wilson's orRani- * zatlon ranks as ono of the bast three of its kind on the American stngo , and its per formances may safely bo recommended to theater goers as among the llncst of their class.
