KendaIi's Best Role.

Ezra Kendall is surprising even his
most ardent and loyal admirers this
eason by an impersonation far more
worthy than anything he has hereto
fore attempted. His weather Beaten
Nnenn" in which he will appear at
the Illinois Friday, is an representation
that stamps Kendall as an actor of
great resources. He has long been
recognized as the master laugh-maker
of American comedians, but not until
his appearance as Benson" had it
been generally thought that talent of
so deep a nature lay latent within him.
But he has proved this convincingly
and has done SO in spite of the skep-
ticism of his closest friends and ad-
mirers. 1t is not a new Kendall, but
the old Kendall, greater and broader,
that one sees in weather Beaten
Benson. He makes you laugh as
heartily and as often as ever he did,
but he also strikes a responsive chord
in the occasional serious moments of
the play. This town is going to talk
about Kendall as Weather Beaten
Benson" long after he leaves. If it
doesn't, it will be different than any
other town in which he has appeared.
LiebIer & Co. have provided Mr.. Ken
dali with superb production and
very strong supporting organization.

tation of the character of "Old Jed
Prouty" For a time Golden, through
the rage for musical comedy, permit
ted the public clamor to drive him
from his well established path, and
two years ago his admirers here could
not help but view with regret his per-
Torrance of Foxy CUTLER" Golden
does not belong in comic opera. His
return to the New England rural
character proves that his departure
was a mistake. So it was good to see
him back in the atmosphere that he
, revels in. In Common Sense Brack-
EFT" Golden has a play that ought to
live longer than has Jed Prouty.
There is more to il. There is plot,
and one of those stories with enough
that touches the heart to cause one to
like to go and see more than once.
The story reyolveS around music
teacher that comes to small town to
take a position in the public schools.
The gossips learn that formerly she
was on the stage and that her mother
now dead. was an actress. They call
for her discharge. Bracket takes her
part. He spends his money to win
her the prize at voting contest to
decide the most popular young woman
in the village. When the pressure
reached the point of a petition de-
handing Brackets resignation from
the presidency of the school board the
music teacher resigns and returns to
Boston, where she has obtained anoth-
er position. On the same train with
her is the wife of one of the leading
citizens who has planned to elope
with the village heartbreaker. The
latter misses his train. but in his stead
goes the brother-in-law of the runaway
wife. He is the music teachers lover.
All three come back to the
village. When the music teacher
is leaving. Bracket tears a
page from the hotel register
to wrap a little remembrance in. At
their meeting on her return she refers
to the discovery of the name of her
mother on the slip of paper. 1t was
part of a page written in the register
90 years before. Her mother. it turns |
out was Brackets wife, deserving |
him to join a theatrical troupe. As in |
all good plays, all turns out happily. |
The estranged couple are reunited and |
Brackets daughter marries one of the |
best young men in the town. Golden |
has a congenial role. and he makes |
much of il. He avoids clowning. max
ing the old man a most lovable and |
sensible person, ready with counsel for
whomsoever needs il. and willing with
a helpful hand for the under dog. The
play is beautifully staged. and the
iS largo and cauahle One Of |
the features is the country band that
gives a concert at a town hall festival,
at which Golden delivers speech. is
delicious hit. The band gives a selec-
ton from "Tannhaeuser" that is a
classic. with just enough OF discord to
show that the boys are not making
their living in the music business. Thei
band was recalled three times. The

Sidney Coming Saturday.

George Sidney, the little comedian
who has given to the stage genuinely
funny Hebrew character in Busy
Ivy in the musical comedy of that
name, will be seen at the Illinois next
Saturday. Sidney's entrance on the
stage is to the accompaniment of a
parody on 'Mr. Dooley," that song
which has gained whistling popularity
in every cline where mortals whistle.
Sidney's verses are of topical nature,
and the idea is a great winner in that
it popularizes the comedian with the
entire audience before he has occasion
to speak line of his characterization.
