San Francisco March 12.-Leading
members of the Merry Widow COM
pany, playing at the Columbia theater
here express the opinion that Mrs. Jack
Cudahy possesses many of the most
essential qualifications for developing
into a successful actress.
George Dameral, Miss Mabel WILDER,
the Merry Widow Oscar Figman,
stage manager. Eugene p. Arnold and
Henry Gressitt, business manager Of
the show, all subscribed to this esti-
mate of Mrs. Jack Cudahy's innate
qualities for a stage career.
Also they all agree that she was in
fatuated with the glamour of stage life
years ago. Her desire was to play the
Merry Widow to George Damerars
Prince Danilo.
She Met DameraI.
When the company was playing in
Kansas City in December 1908, with
Rosemary Close as the Merry Widow,
Mrs. Cudahy made her acquaintance
and through her met George Dameral
and his wife and other members of the
company.

ance. from which sprang many merry
parties and some of the stars were in
vited to the Cudahy elegant home.
When the troupe went to ST. Louis
the following month the Cudahy family
followed, even the four children being
taken along. The Cudahys engaged a
box for every performance of the sec
ond week and it is said Mrs Jack Cud-
ahy did not miss a performance. so en-
amored was she with the captivating
talent of George Dameral and Rose
mary Glosz.
There were many luncheans. suppers
and other social affairs and when Mrs
Cudahy reluctantly returned home she
invited Miss GlOsz to spent her fort
nights vacation at the Cudahy home in
Kansas City.
This winter Jack Cudahy was in Cal
ifornia for a month or so with his
brother, who was reported to be an ar
dent admirer in the train of Bessie
Clayton, the dancer while she was
playing at os Angeles.
Mrs. Jack Cudahy, it appears took
the opportunity during her husbands
absence on the coast, to rejoin the Mer-
ry Widow company at Minneapolis
for two weeks from whence she went
with the players to Duluth.
