cnAS. B. HANFORD
IN JULIUS CEASAR''

The production OF Julius Caesar"
by Charles B. Hanford this season,
must inevitably awaken memories
which are cherished with reverent in
terest by every student on the Ameri
can stage When Booth and Barrett
formed their famous partnership and
produced Julius Caesar" on a scale
of magnificence which astonished both
the theatrical profession and the pub
lie. there was some curiosity as to
who would play the part of Marc
Anthony" 1t was Immediately decid-
ed that Mr.. Booth would play "Brutus"
sius." These two distinguished play
ers were prompt in fixing on Charles
B. Hanford for the other prominent
role II was a brilliant part for the
young actor and he embraced ii with
befitting artistic enthusiasm. II is a
somewhat remarkable fact that it was
a performance in broad farce that
paved the way for Mr.. Hanford's ap-
pearance as a tragedian.
When Robson and Crane were play
ing the Comedy of Errors" Hanford
was engaged in the supporting com
pany with a part of "Aegeon." Despite
its merry surroundings there Is
strain OF pathos and dignity in this
character which MIR. Hanford brought
out in a manner that attracted the no.
tiCe OF Lawrence Barrett and led to
the subsequent distinguished associa-
tion which paved the way for the ca
Barrett occupied box and the effect
produced by Mr. Hanford's work was
noted by one of the Chicago critics as
follows: Even Aegeon, a very minor
part. was presented by Charles B.
Hanrord In such a manner as to thrill
Lawrence Barrett and evoke his un-
bounded applause"
After that Mr.. Hanford played with
Booth and Barrett. and Booth and
Modjeska. and other distinguished
stars of that day. But his loyalty to
the play In which he first won signal
success never wavered and when Law
renee Barrett died Mr.. Hanford pur-
chased from the estate the entire
Julius Caesar production. This he
used in his Initial starring tour. The
Booth-Barrett production is Of course
thing OF the past. yet 1t serves as
basis upon which is constructed the
elaborate modern scenic revival which
Mr. Hanford will present at the Canon
City opera house on Thursday, May ?.
The company will again include
Miss Marie Drofnah. who will have the
role Of "Portla." and the remainder OF
the cast has been selected with the
care which 10 always In evidence when

mence at Canon City. were the home
of the Blackfeet A perpetual state of
war existed between the two tribes.
When the Utes went to the plains to
kill the bison, a battle always followed
with the Blackfeet
On one of these excursions into the
Blackfeet territory a young warrior
had captured and carried away an In
dian maiden, the fatrest Of the tribe,
and. though her Blackfoot lover had
headed an expedition to recover her.
he was unsuccessful.
About this time a famine come in
the lands of the Ute. The deer and
the elk went back into the mountains
and the braves were hard pressed for
food. Many Of them died and a band
was organized to go upon the plains
and kill buffalo. The Blackfeet were
not In such sore straits. The mem
ories OF many wrongs inflicted upon
them ranked in their breasts and the
band OF Utes was driven into the
mountains.
So fierce were the inroads of hunger
upon the Utes that they sued for peace
with their hereditary enemies. But the
Blackfeet were obdurate. I'VE will

answered. and kill what you want IL

The Blackfoot lover was brave and
the challenge met with favor in his
eyes. The Devils Theater was chosen
as the place for the battle. and 500
warriors from each tribe were to wit

riors filed down over the trail which
runs within a few miles OF the theater
and is now almost obliterAted. They
brought with them the girl and she
was placed in one OF the caves which
run from the stage. Up from the
plains came the Blackfeet warriors
with their champion. and the thousand
warroars ranged themselves on the
stone lodges before the cave. The
comhatants took their places on the
spacious stone stage, armed with
lance. shield and stone knife. and at

dead, SO that not even the stethoscope

sand hog was resusctated by DR.. Sears of
Bellevue and a physician employed in the
Airlock Hospital of the Pennsylvania tun-
mel.

the last airlock after coming out Of the

tered his home he collapsed with the
bends" A physician from the Airlock
Hospital an ambulance from Bellevue and
DR.. Sears were Immediately summoned.
Although the tunnel physician declared
that Mariti was dead, DIR. Sears hypo-
dermically injected strong solution of
Strychnine, and was rewarded by an ex-
halation from the unconscious man. Then
followed another. He insisted that the
sand hog be hurried back to the airlocks
as a last chance. There the patient was
placed under extra air pressure where he
revived. Three hours later he was able
to sit up in bed in the hospital to which
he was removed.
