UP TO DATE MELoDRAMA

Are we to have Mr.. Lawson on the
stage? Somebody has intimated that
this is one of the possibilities of the
future. that already the pen of the
dramatist is busy with the lines and
that the scenario is being planned To
the genial and versatile Boston gentle
mans admirers this will be pleasant
news, and even his enemies (for he
doubtless has few must admit that
behind the footligl1ts the fighter of the
system will find his proper sphere of
activity.
Perhaps Mr.. Lawson himself will be
good enough to play the role of hero.
His career SO far certainly shows a
leaning toward the histrionic. More
oyer, he has been doing his best dur
ing the last few months to build up for
himself hero reputation. To hold at
all times the center of the stage, to
stand always in the limelight, to utter
naught but noble sentiments, to foil the
villains (of course there win be several
villains in Mr.. Lawson's melodramal
