It was Herr August Kiingmann, the manager of the Ducal theater at Brunswick, says the London Tele- graph, who undertook the task, but, it may be added, much against his will, Klingmann had himself writ- ten 4 five-nct tragedy entitied “Faust,” which he cohetantly gave at the ducal theater, and the then Duke Karl IL. used to tease him with sarcastic remarks to the effect that he would not produce Goethe's “Faust” lest the competition be- tween the two performances should prove detrimental to his own work He took ali the necessary trouble, however, with the performance, and the result Was most successful; so much #o that it was given the same year at Hanover, Laipesic and Wet mar, In Berlin “Faust” did not appen on the stage till 1894, and then at the court theater. But the then Prince Radziwill had it performed private- ly in his own palace in the Prussian eapital—now the ofetal residence of the chancellor of the empire— fore it waa given in public. One must, however, sot forget that Goethe himself was always opposed to the pefformance of “Faust.” MONEY TO BE SPENT ature Passes into History.
