HANF0RD COMING WITH
SHAKESPEREAN PLAYS

1t is fact worthy of note that the
present season finds but two actors de-
voting themselves principally to the
presentation of the Shakespearean
dramas, and to Charles B. Hanford and
Robert Mantell falls the honor, but Mr.
Hanford stands alone in presenting
repertoire of plays Shakespearean. 1t
is true that Mr.. Sothern is giving an
occasional performance of Hamlet"
and the Ben Greet players are present
ing in the Elizabethan manner several
of the immortal bard's masterpieces,
but the burden Of the work in MAIN
tanning the interest in the plays of
Shakespeare falls upon Mr.. Hauford
and Mr.. Manteli. Mr.. Hanford has been
an annual visitor to this city for many
years, and has succeeded in establish
ing a following here that must be en-
couraging to him in his efforts to give
the public what is best in the drama,
II was twenty years ago when Mr..
Hanford made his first appearance be
fore Il Salt Lake City audience, play
ing at that time the part of Marc An
tony in the famous Booth-B Barrett pro-
duction of Julius Caesar" There was
an interim Of ten years between this
engagement and his next, when he re-
turned as a member of the James-Kid-
der-Hsnford company, presenting "The
Winters Tale Macbeth" THE Ri
walls" and THE School for Scandal"
During the past ten years MIR. Hanford
has appeared annually at the Salt Lake
theatre, in many instances affording
the only opportunity during a season of
witnessing an adequate production of a
Shakespearean play. The Tanning of
the Shrew" and THE Merchant f'Ven-
ice" have been his favorite productions
here, for he has given no less than five
presentations of the former and four
of the latter. In addition he has given
several performances of Richard III"
"Othello," Benedick, in Much Ado
About Nothing Marc Antony, in An
tony and Cleopatra" and as Ingomar
and Don Caesar De Bszan. He has also
appeared with distinguished success in
the role of Haversack IN THE Old
Guard" one-aCt Napoleonic play
somewhat similar TO Henry Irving's
Waterloo" ''The Old Guard is gem
orally used by Mr.. Hanford as a cur
tain raiser to THE Tanning of the
Shrew." For his coming engagement
at the Salt Lake theatre on April !, 2,
g. Mr. Hanford's repertoire will consist
Of 1.-THE Winters Tale" 'Othello" and
Much Ado About Nothing" and will
be presented in the order named, ex-
cept that THE Winters Tale" I'm addi-
ton to the performance on Thursday
night. will be repeated at the Saturday
matinee, an especially notable feature
of the presentation Is the playing by

ties and AUtolycus, an arrangement
which the fact that the characters are
strongly contrasted, as well as sepa-
rated by the arrangement of scenes,
makes highly advantageous. In assum-
ing the role Of Leontes. Mr. Hanford
makes no experiment, for IL is one in
which he enjoyed signal triumph when
he appeared in it during the season of
the all-star company that also included
Louis James and Kathryn kidder.
The temperance of Miss Marie Drof-
nah will also give added interest to Mr..
HanfOrd's productions this season.
After a years absence from the stage
through illness, Miss Drofnah returns
to the position she has so ably filed
for many years, and in which she had
earned the highest honors as a define
ator Of Shakespeare heroines. During
the engagement at the salt Lake thu
atre Miss Drofnah will be seen both as
Hermione and Perdita in The Winter
Tale" as Desdemona in "OthellO,' and
as Beatrice in Much Ado About Moth

MY FIRST NIGHT
AS AN ACTOR
BY ROBERT EDEsoN.

] was attending the Brooklyn Poly
technic, and after school hours was
making a little extra money working
in the box office Of the old Park the
atTe, Brooklyn. then under the man
agement of Colonel Sim. Late on Mon
day afternoon word was brought TO
Colonel Sim that an actor who was to
appear that night In the premier of
Fascination, in which Cora Tanner
was the star. was sick and would be
unable to appear Mr.. Sim. being IN
able to get any one to go on, was in
quite q dilemma, and I volunteered.
He said: Bob, if you 60 on and make
good I VIII give you 800" The part
was not a long one, and in two hours I
had memOrized it. and one of the
members Of the company gave me a
hasty rehearsal. I had always had Z
yearning for the stage, due, no doubt,
in a great measure to the fact that
my father was in the profession, but
whenever I mentioned acting he i'm
mediately vetoed the proposition. In
my great glee at being able to get the
long cherished chance, l impaired the
information that / was going to make
by debut this night to number OF
schooiboy friends, who Immediately
went out and told the sang. That
night, when the curtain went up, q
large part OF the gallery was filed by
the boys from the Poly" When
made by entrance 1 was greeted by
the class yell, which threw me up in
the air and I forgot every line of my
part. Fortunately I had very little to
do in the first act, and by the time
it came to go on in the following act
L had recovered my nerve and played
the rest of the performance without
hitch. Somehow or other 1 received
good notices, and it was an easy mat
ter for me to collect the 800 from
Colonel Sim.

EVENING
At ST. PETERS

The Rev. Samuel Fox and his sister.
Mrs. Simon. were rendered a reception
by the congregation of st. Peters
Methodist Episcopal church, at Riy.
erside, Tuesday evening. There was a
large attendance, and the occasion
throughout was one that could not but
convince the new pastor that the peo-
pie with whom he has been appointed
to labor are helpful, generous and ap--
preciative.
The address of welcome was deliver
ed by the Rev. O. NJ. Barnitz, former
pastor of st. Peters church but now
retired from the ministry and residing
in South Danville Mr.. Raruitz ad
Verted to his own pastorate at St. Pet.
er's some fifteen years ago and ex.
planned how pleasant were the rela-
t1ons maintained between himself and
the congregation, which he commend
ed for Its loyalty to its pastor and its
zeal in good work.
The Rev. Samuel Fox responded in
the same happy vein, reminding the
congregation that he was there as their
pastor for work, to do good in all the
various ways in which minister OF
the gospel may labor to make the
world better. At the same time he
urged that his labors would be un-
fruitful unless he had the co-opera-
tion, sympathy and prayers of the con
gregation.
The Rev. George S. Womer, pastor
of ST. PauI's Methodist EpiscoDal
church, made felicitous address.
which reflected very high opinion
entertained by the speaker of Mr.. Fox
of his sterling qualities of heart and
mind and the zeal with which he pur-
sues his calling.
Rev. c. @. Snavely, pastor of Trinity
Methodist Episcopal church, and G.
III. Manley, general secretary OF the
Y. M. O. A, each INDUCED in brief
and timely remarks.
The Keystone Double Male Quartetts
rendered several choice selections dur
ing the evening. A duet was very eff
fectively rendered by the Misses Kath.
rine and Mamie Keim. A recitation
was rendered by Miss Mamie Keim.
After the exercises refreshments
were served in the lecture room of the
church.
