There are things in which Congress

Is TO rouse a public sentiment In ia

Of his inquiries.
When asked as to the secret mis-

is bound for San Francisco, Hobson
smiled and said he had not been in
formed. However. it is evident that
his present lecturing campaign is not
without a purpose and there are many
who believe that he is now in the

LORD DUNDREARY HAS
COME TO LIFE AGAIN
Younger sothern VIII Appear at the
Mason in the Famous Role
of sour American
Cousin"

Lord Dundreary will come to life
again at the Mason theater next week.
With the reincarnation will return the
immortal side Whiskers, the monocle
and the frock coat which the genera
ton of the SOS, SOS and '70s recognized
on sight, together with the stumbling,
suffering, confused speech, the hop
skip Jump walk and the hundred
and one other mannerisms which used
to fill theatergoers with uncomfortable
mirth.
The younger Sothern, as he will be
called for many more years to come,
has reincarnated his fathers great role,
Lord Dundreary. 1t was a priceless
legacy left him, and into the famous
impersonation he has breathed the
charm of his own personality. Lord
Dundreary was one of the characters
in Tom Taylors play "Our American
Cousin" The play was first produced
at the Olympic theater, Broadway, New
York, on October Is, 1858, with Laura
Keene, who was then New Yorls's fore
most actress manager, as Florence
Trenchard, Joseph Jefferson as Asa
Trenchard, Edward Askew Sothern as
Lord Dundreary and Mrs. Sothern as
Georgina. At that time the part of
the nobleman consisted of only forty
seven lines.
For 1000 nights the production filled
the theater, and its popularity was en-
tirely due to Sothern's creation of the
character of Lord Dundreary. 1t was
the first of the "long-run" plays in
New York. From this country the
play went to England, where it broke
all records for long runs Despite the
caricature of the English lord Sothern's
Dundreary pleased so well that his first
engagement at the Haymarket theater
lasted 500 nights.
The elder Sothern really made the
part. He obtained from Miss Keene
permission to rewrite it, also to intro
duce gags" He revamped it until the
part had. only the merest connection
with Tom Taylor's creation. And once
he had started on his task he continued
for years to add drolleries to it.
s.
The new Walker theater is holding
its own in the close competition now
on among the smaller houses. The
management is offering good vaude-
Vile. Hess and Riordan seem to be
the most popular of the performers on
this weeks bill. They use several
novel instruments. including the Tyre
mandolin and a monster harp guitar
said to be the largest instrument of
the kind ever made. Both are manip-
ulated in artistic fashion. Their banjo
arrangement of popular southern mel
odies is a pleasing and tuneful feature.
Wells and Haverly offer an inter-
esting line of turf slang in their race
track skit. The moving pictures are
new and include several exceptionally
good films.

have been good for only n base. In
the next inning he singled and he not

narrow margin. He had no opportuni-
ties in the deld to the great regret of
his admirers in the stand. Others,
whose work contributed materially to
the victory, were O'Leary, Crawford

hits, although Rossman and O'Leary
were both charged with errors To
Mullin, however, the greatest credit
was awarded. by the spectators. Even
