Stuart Robson.

1t has been many years since an ade-
quate presentation of THE Comedy of
Errors has been attempted In this coun-
try. As result especial interest attaches
to the revival of the Shakespearian COM
edy this season by an actor of the stand
Ing of Stuart Robson. The production,
deliberately staged and costumed, and
favored by the strongest support that
could possibly be secured for Mr.. Rob-
son will be seen at the Jefferson theatre
next Thursday night.
Mr.. Robson probably is one of the first
OF living Shakespearian comedians and
one of his greatest ambitions has been
to establish the fact that 1.-THE Comedy
of Errors" Is &C omedy of the highest or
der and not simply a farce as so many
persons are accustomed to class It, Mr.
Robson Is a clost student of Shakespeare
as well as an actor in the classic plays,
and In the minds of the critics has done
for THE Comedy of Errors what the
aged Macklin did In the rescue Of Shylock
from the buffooneries of the clown
comedians.
In the present production, Mr.. Rob-
son appears as the Dromio of Syracuse,
the part he made familiar to theatregoers
two generations ago. The part of the
Dromio Of Ephesus. the twin brother, is
played by Clifford Leigh, the English ac-
tor who was selected for the part be-
cause of his strong resemblance to Mr.
Robson. When the two are In their cos
tunes and makeup for their parts, the
similarity in appearance Is striking.
Edwin Holt appears as Antipholus of
Syracuse and Adolph Jackson Is his twin
brother. Antipholus of Ephesus. Miss

shirts and voluminous stocks were the
dear ambition of the dandies
The incidents of much pith and moment
in those serene New England village
lives were the general trainln'," the dona-
ton parties at the minister's house, the
threshing days on the farm and the
'doins' " in the "meetln " house.
1t is said that all these are shown In
1.-THE Village Postmaster" with such
fidelity as to make them of real historic
value in bringing back the pictures of
the olden times.
The money-loving ambitious old post
master, the dreamy inventive son of the
minister, the sharp-tongued maiden sister
of the postmaster with the sentiment al
streak in her nature and penchant for
quoting poetry, the gentle attractive
daughter of the village postmaster, the
scheming young lawyer, the merry CO.
quette, the Anticipated sexton of the
church, and the mysterious seamstress
with secrets of her own, are all strong
types, human and convincing.
Troops of pretty girls are there, as
there always have been in villages all
over the broad country; and their quaint
dressing only seems to give them all in
