took no less than three librettists, Kraatz, Sto-

composer, C. M. Ziehrer, to write the music, may
have been a tolerably good musical play. In its
journey across the Atlantic, however, the book
apparently suffered a severe attack of mal-de-mer
which even the treatment of old Doctor Rosen-
feld failed to cure. True, the aforesaid Rosen-
feld took Miss Lulu Glaser's measure to a nicety,
giving her opportunities galore to ogle her
audience, with that self-satisfied smirk which
seems to be the direct heritage of the end chorus
girl. It seems a pity indeed that Miss Glaser,
who is really a clever little woman, cannot forget
the tricks which she no doubt acquired in the days
when she should have been learning her business
in the hard working ensemble. However, in Mile.
Mischief she manages to sing on the key, an
improvement on her previous performances
which deserves the highest commendation.
Mile. Mischief is a success. Of this there can
be no doubt, and this success is due primarily
to two of the most delightful and tuneful num-
bers which have reached New York in many a
moon. One entitled "Sweatheart" is a haunting
waltz, which should be seen and indeed heard
on every piano from coast to coast, while the
other, "The Army Corps," a rousing march song,
sung, by the way, in a hoarse whisper by W. P.
Carleton,' is as stirring as any march song well
could be. The rest of the music is fair in qual-
ity, showing tunefulness in spots, but little
originality. It undoubtedly could be made a
