Scribe was called a potboiler." a maker of mechanical plays, a man wbo wrote scenes to fit scenery and a maker of plots rather than of plays. Appalling tales were told of him by unsuccessful playwrights. It was whispered that he sucked tbe brains of other men. pur chased ideas, revamped them and tbus acquired the large fortune wblcb be was then enjoying., How they accounted for tbe fact that with the Ideas of unsuccessful play wrigbts he made successful plays rra amon aoes not tell. s: But all were screed that Scribe was mediocre, that his success was accidental and tbat be was a miser. Albert Wolff gives these details of tbe opinions held with re gard to Scribe In tbe fifties and adds this anecdote: "The only Influential man I knew In Paris." said Sardou. "was Dumas the elder.
