which enable an actor to make a
thorough success in any part are:
knowledge Of the characteristics OF
the certain individual to be imperson-
ated, intelligence which enables him
to form a true conception of the
character and the talent or ability to
represent that character naturally
and true to life. All these require
ments Mr.. Hendricks possesses,
hence his genuine success could not
but follow. His Swedish dialect is
also perfect, yet he does not go to ex-
tremes with it, and the broken Eng
lish of ''Yon" is at all times readily
understood
Ben Hendricks has been identified
with Swedish plays for many years.
His representations embrace "Ole Ole

but in neither of these has the public
shown the interest that has always
been manifest in his first real sue
cess, lyon Yonson," which he has

1t is certain that, among the many

We say this with full knowledge of the
fact that the foundation for his accom-
pishEent was laid over thirty years ago
when Clerk Maxwell, in an address to tbs
Royal society. defined the character OF
the ether waves and predicted the posi-
bility of wireless biography by means OF
electric magnetic waves. Nor are We for

Hertz by the announcement of his dis
coveries. earned the right to give his
name to the etleric waves which Maroon
and his contemporaries have turned tC
such good account.
