COlumbia-.'Puddn' Head Wilson.

Column bia-''Pnddn' Head wilson"
with ''Pudd'n Head Wilson" as the
bill at the Columbia Theater this week,
the Columbia Players give promise Of
outdoing themselves, not only in the ex-
ceIence of their performance. but by
reason Of the fact that two Of their
most popular members. Walter Wilson
and Emelie Melville will have the lead
ing roles. Mr.. Wilson has been happily
placed in the role OF Pudd'n Head, in
which he is a positive revelation, even to
those whose ideas of the part are framed
upon the classic Interpretation of It by
Frank Mayo. who also dramatized the
story as it was originally written by
Mark Twain. The prominence Of their
work will. however, in no wise detract
from the prominence Paul McAllister will
command in the role Of Chambers, origin
ally played by Edgar Davenport Play

Driscoll, will be found Frederick For

prise Of the evening in the role Of Roxy,

peared and made remarkable hits else
where. With her viii be found Phyllis

terday." as Aunt Patsy Then there will
be Stanley James, as York Driscoll; Jo-
seph Redmond, as Howard Pembroke:
Frank Shannon, as Sheriff Blake; Edwin
H Curtis and Theodore Hardy. as the
two wise men, while Joseph Hazelton
will double as Judge Robinson and Dea-
con Jasper. In addition 10 this, there
will be a large crowd of plantation
darkies to add color to the scene and
a genuine old-time quartet in lovable
negro melodies. The play is in four acts
and prologue, and tells the story Of
two Infants, whose nurse exchanges them
in the cradle, and the heir remains the
slave for years until the Identities are
established by means Of finger prints.
