SINGING SAVES HIM.
Arthur Donaldson's Voice Redeeming |
Feature of lyon Yonson."

Arthur Dona1dson's Voice Redeeming
Feature of "Yon YOnson."
Arthur Donaldson is not by several
the best Swedish dialect comedian who
has trod the boards, but there is a
redeeming feature about his work in
the overworked part of "Yon Yonson'
he can sing. Mr. Donaldson is the
possessor of a glorious voice which he
knows how TO use, and when he uses
1t the audience forgets much that is
dreary stale and tiresome about the
play. His singing Is worthy of a bet
ter setting than lyon Yonson."
The play once was unique in the
drama and drew because of that fact,
but it has been seen too often, and
the public has grown tired of it. Also
the theater goers have learned to look
for weak company supporting the
star in the piece, and their expectations
invariably are realized: The present
company is about the average.
During the performance Miss Edith
Hall, who plays Roly, introduced sew
eral specialties that were well receiv-
ed. The lumbermen's quartette. a
stock feature of lyon Yonson," is bet
than usual, and won from the thin au-
dience several hearty recalls.
