great and strong, has a very dead,y
attack. He was puffed and lauded ara
lionized and petted in this country uptI
his head was turned, and he ia M,
strong enough to turn 1t back. He /.
anxious TO head a vaudeville COMPANY n,
his own next season, although he b,.
been offered splendid engagement, a,
colossal terms. But he wants to try tho
doubtful experiment of owning a com.
pany. and he'll probably do 1t. Sandov

He Is to stay here a week. and then "a
to Europe. where he is to be marrieA
July Is. His idea is to return to this
country in September. Miss Lottie Col.

baby boy, Sidney, would like to secura
his mother again, but 1t Is said that sid
Jared rather badly, and even maternal
affection has its limits. Mrs. Drew he'd
been offered a position in John Drewd
comedy, but II she accepted that she
would not be featured" In fact, hsr
name would be printed on the programme
Mrs. Drew is such an admirable artist
that 1t is a pity she doesn't make up he'd
mind to stay in New York.
