The veteran actor, John S. Lindsay,
is going into Shakespearian reyivaIs
on an elaborate scale this year and he
has organized his company for a Utah
tour on more than usually expensive
lines He has fitted his people with
new Sbaxespearian costumes and his
tour will be limited exclusively to the
legitimate, his repertoire including
"OthelIo," "The Merchant of Venice"
''Virginius'' and 'Richelieu,' and it is
his idea that the rural population will
appreciate the chance Of seeing
Shakespearian plays at popular prices.
His company is made up of the fol-
lowing: John S. Lindsay, L. Cosgrave,
George w. Meeks. Charles Palmquist,
Thomas hampton, James McCarroH,
Frank Hooper, and the Misses Lucia,
Edith and Mamie Lindsay. The com

Edwards alternates with him in the
leading parts.
Arthur Shepherd, the young pianist,
has written a drinking song to Tom
Moore's words which Professor
Stephens says is the best home produc-
ton turned out for years by any local
composer. Stephens thinks young
Shepherd is a marvel as a musician,
and says Salt Lake should congratulate
itself that he has decided to- settle here.
