Goodnight Hildebrandt. the gardener, - - - Mr. W. F. Hauhart The curtain rises with Betty and Hildebrandt in conversation. They are expecting Adelheid's lover. Heinrich Roller, a university student, who is to come home on a visit. At this point Adelheid and Ferdinand von Bruck enter engaged in a rather acrimo- nious discussion. Ferdinand has rescued Adelheid from a serious injury in an accident and has saved the life of a child that Adelheid had allowed to fall into the lake. He has. however, offended her by his haughty and overbearing manner. Heinrich arrives. His meeting with Adelheid is somewhat cool. She has become en- grossed with Ferdinand in spite of herself. Heinrich, on the other hand, has become enamored of Betty, who is an old playmate of his. Ferdinand now finds Adelheid’s journal in the adjacent woods, and is found reading it by Adelheid. This incenses her still more. She determines to challenge him to a duel in Heinrich’s name, expecting, of course, that Heinrich will fight for her. She does so and sends the note by Hildebrandt. Ferdinand enters, much angered, and finds Heinrich. Angry words ensue, but soon it becomes evident that Heinrich is innocent and that Adelheid is the culprit. Ferdinand and Heinrich become friends, sit and enjoy a cigar, and finally are about to leave for the adjacent cosy “Waldkneipe.’’ Just as they are leaving the garden. Adelheid enters. She is shocked at Heinrich's behavior, and angrily commands him to leave her forever. Ferdinand rebukes her, and she breaks down crying. This brings about a change in him. He becomes solicitous of her welfare and determines to win her friendship and her love. Frau von Rosen, who is hard of hearing, seeks to pacify the young people in their turbulent moods. Ferdinand overhears an ensuing conversation between Adelheid and Heinrich from the arbor into which he had stepped being determined not to leave the garden before ap- peasing Adelheid. Relations between Adelheid and Heinrich are strained. Heinrich prefers his modest Betty to his former unappreciated Adelheid. Ferdinand taking advantage of this state of affairs, wooes and wins Adelheid. In the midst of their lovemaking, they are surprised by the company who have been awaiting them at dinner. The play ends with a general reconciliation and good wishes for a happy future.

Hahnensporn returns with Guste, who helps him to repack the trunk and is horrified at finding the cap on the skull. She asks what preparations have been made for the re- ception of the bride, and learns that practically nothing has been done. Edmund naively insists that it is the professor’s express wish that his marriage shall make no change what- ever in his accustomed way of living. Guste gives them a piece of her mind and hurries away to inform the whole town of how these “Turks and Indians expect to treat a bride. Otto and Antonie arrive; but the former almost immediately departs again to go to the casino as usual, leaving his young bride alone. Vocal Solo. In diesen heiligen Nallen - - Hozart Mr. W. L. Davis. Duet. Sommernacht - Ed. Schultz Mrs. A. H. Vaas and Mr. A. Baas. ACT II. It is the next morning. Antonie soliloquizes on her future. She is both indignant and sad. But as she really loves her cousin and feels convinced that his selfish indifference is only due to ignorance, she decides to try to win his heart. Hearing someone come, she withdraws to her room. Edmund comes in to prepare breakfast, soon after him appears the professor. A bell rings in Antonie's room and Edmund informs the professor that his wife desires the servi- ces of a maid. The latter is horrified at this idea, but decides to investigate how these matters were managed by the ancient Greeks and Romans. Antonie comes in. but her advances are hardly noticed by the professor. She inquires after the plans that he has made for their future life and cannot help becoming again in- dignant at her husband's selfish views of women and marriage. The famulus interrupts the scene by serving coffee, prepared always “for a fortnight in advance.” It is so horrid that Antonie cannot touch it and she puts Hahnensporn and Edmund to work and prepares a delightful little breakfast. Otto cannot withstand his wife's grace and cleverness. He so much enjoys this novel way of breakfasting that he actually misses his class and decides to stay at home. Anto- nie now step by step succeeds in arousing his interest in her way of doing things. She even convinces him of the beauty of a wedding-trip and makes him heartily ashamed of having shown so little regard for her comfort. She boldly attacks his folly of wishing to model his life on that of the ancients and proves more than a match for him in refuting and ridiculing his learned arguments. The more she feels that she is gaining ground, the more mischievous she becomes. Both Edmund and the professor must submit to her ton- sorial skill, and finally she calls up Edmund to teach her learned husband how to kiss. But the latter’s jealousy and love intervene. He begs his wife’s pardon, denounces his old philosophers, and makes hurried arrangements for an immediate departure for a “wed- ding-trip.” MUSIC BY PETERSON'S ORCHESTRA.
