Show German Comklv. It is noteworthy note-worthy that since tho Germans conquered con-quered the French, in the lata German-Franco war, Irish comedy, on the American stage, is being supplanted by German comedy. "Star" comedians come-dians do not travel now on their 6hil-ellahs 6hil-ellahs and an abundance of "arrahs," but Frita, Nathan tho Jew, or some other German character, looms up on the boards, with, a i'ywb, mynheer," and a gri-t of droll things, ludicrous saying?, aid burlesque ''business," which please the million and enrich tho theatrical treasuries. This may have originate! with a desire to please the German element of the population, popula-tion, but it has tickled tho thc-atro-go-iog portion of tho publio until the broad and farcical oomedy of such pieces is more popular than the eccen-tijoitles, eccen-tijoitles, keen wit, and pugilistic stylo of tho stage Irishman ever were. The I presentation of "Uoly a Jew" suggested sug-gested tho thought. |
